Lower Tidal Volume Ventilation Best for Acute Lung Injury, Independent of BMI Laurie Barclay, MD March 05, 2004 0 ...

The mean ratios of PaO 2 to fraction of inspired oxygen (304.40 and 312.97, respectively) were similar for lower versus higher tidal volume.

Some experts would suggest that even lower tidal volumes may be appropriate, based on the principle that lower tidal volumes reduce lung stretch and, thus, should limit subsequent injury. [30, 34 ...

The role of tidal volume has been less clear. We aimed to study the effects of different PEEPs (0, 5, 8 and 10 cm H 2 O) and VTs (4, 8, and 12 mL/kg) on the establishment of functional residual ...

In addition, 40 percent of the time patients received excessively high volumes. Women were more likely to receive excessively high tidal volumes than men (76 percent of women vs 57 percent of men ...

The effect of inflation length on lung aeration pattern, tidal volumes, and functional residual capacity (FRC) immediately after birth was investigated. Preterm rabbits (28 d), randomized into ...

Developing lung capacity as an asthmatic can be a challenge. There are a few exercises you can do that may increase lung volume, but it’s important to realize that simply increasing lung volume ...

Lung function was assessed using two parameters: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), which measures the amount of air expelled in the first second of a forced breath after a deep ...

The number of posterior ribs representing diaphragm position had only a weak correlation with lung volume on 3D CT (Kendall τ 0.23, 95% CI 0.16-0.31), David G. Tingay, PhD, of Murdoch Children's ...

The researchers suggest that while a notification may cause anesthesiologists to use lower tidal volumes, more research is needed on lung-protective ventilation strategies. The researchers presented ...

Reduction of tidal volume did not significantly shorten time to extubation but could still be beneficial to patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery, according to the study’s abstract. Researchers ...
