TLDR
The authors discuss the effects and implications of atelectasis in the perioperative period and illustrate how preventive measures may impact outcome and the impact of atElectasis and its prevention in acute lung injury.Abstract:
Atelectasis occurs in the dependent parts of the lungs of most patients who are anesthetized. Development of atelectasis is associated with decreased lung compliance, impairment of oxygenation, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and development of lung injury. The adverse effects of atelectasis persist into the postoperative period and can impact patient recovery. This review article focuses on the causes, nature, and diagnosis of atelectasis. The authors discuss the effects and implications of atelectasis in the perioperative period and illustrate how preventive measures may impact outcome. In addition, they examine the impact of atelectasis and its prevention in acute lung injury.read more

TL;DR: EP improved the exercise tolerance of the patients before esophagectomy and might be useful in preventing respiratory complications.

TL;DR: The rationale and possible benefits of timely alveolar recruitment in early post‐traumatic acute respiratory distress syndrome are discussed.

High flow nasal oxygen therapy in patients after cardiac surgery
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-anatomy of the EMMARM, a probabilistic procedure for estimating the antibody levels of EMT in response to EMTs, which has shown high levels of specificity in the EMT literature.

Does Lung Compliance Optimization Through PEEP Manipulations Reduce the Incidence of Postoperative Hypoxemia in Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery? A Randomized Trial.
TL;DR: The incidence of postoperative hypoxemia was not reduced by an open-lung approach with protective ventilation strategy in obese patients undergoing LBS, and a pragmatic application of a PEEP level of 10 cm H2O was comparable to individual PEEP titration in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intratidal recruitment/derecruitment persists at low and moderate positive end-expiratory pressure in paediatric patients.
TL;DR: Mechanically ventilated paediatric patients undergo intratidal recruitment/derecruitment which occurs more prominently in younger than in older children and homogenizes regional ventilation in comparison to 2cmH2O.

Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Roy G. Brower,Michael A. Matthay,Alan H. Morris,David A. Schoenfeld,B. Taylor Thompson,Arthur P. Wheeler +5 more
TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation with a lower tidal volume than is traditionally used results in decreased mortality and increases the number of days without ventilator use.

The acute respiratory distress syndrome
TL;DR: An overview of the definitions, clinical features, and epidemiology of the acute respiratory distress syndrome is provided and advances in the areas of pathogenesis, resolution, and treatment are discussed.

TL;DR: As compared with conventional ventilation, the protective strategy was associated with improved survival at 28 days, a higher rate of weaning from mechanical ventilation, and a lower rate of barotrauma in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: Mechanical ventilation can induce a cytokine response that may be attenuated by a strategy to minimize overdistention and recruitment/derecruitment of the lung, and these physiological improvements are associated with improvements in clinical end points.
