A Device for Improving Oxygenation in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

2020-07-16T10:29:38+02:00

In this paper we present a device for improving blood oxygenation in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). ARDS is caused by lung-related illness or injury, and can occur in mechanically ventilated ICU patients due to volutrauma or barotrauma. In ARDS, the lower lung is closed resulting in impaired gas exchange, and [...]

Pulmonary rehabilitation coupled with negative pressure ventilation decreases decline in lung function, hospitalizations, and medical cost in COPD: A 5-year study

2020-07-16T10:27:30+02:00

Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) brings benefits to patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Negative pressure ventilation (NPV) increases ventilation and decreases hyperinflation as well as breathing work in COPD. We evaluated the long-term effects of a hospital-based PR program coupled with NPV support in patients with COPD on clinical outcomes.One hundred twenty-nine patients [...]

Successful Treatment of Protein-Losing Enteropathy and Plastic Bronchitis by Biphasic Cuirass Ventilation in a Patient with Failing Fontan Circulation

2020-07-16T10:26:14+02:00

We present a 16-year-old male patient with hypoplastic left heart syndrome who developed protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) and plastic bronchitis (PB) after a Fontan operation. He received medical therapies, including albumin infusion, unfractionated heparin, and high-dose anti-aldosterone therapy but could not obtain clinical relief. Biphasic cuirass ventilation (BCV) led to expectoration of bronchial casts [...]

Iron lung versus mask ventilation in acute exacerbation of COPD: a randomised crossover study

2020-07-16T10:17:36+02:00

OBJECTIVE:To compare iron lung (ILV) versus mask ventilation (NPPV) in the treatment of COPD patients with acute on chronic respiratory failure (ACRF). DESIGN:Randomised multicentre study. SETTING:Respiratory intermediate intensive care units very skilled in ILV. PATIENTS AND METHODS:A total of 141 patients met the inclusion criteria and were assigned: 70 to ILV and 71 [...]
