1. Pathophysiological and Histomorphological Effects of One-Lung Ventilation in the Porcine Lung
Sammanfattning : Thoracic surgical procedures require partial or complete airway separation and the opportunity to exclude one lung from ventilation (one-lung ventilation, OLV). OLV is commonly associated with profound pathophysiological changes that may affect the postoperative outcome. LÄS MER
2. Monitoring alveolar recruitment in the critically ill - Patient studies using electric impedance tomography and volume-dependent compliance
Sammanfattning : Background: Acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are associated with a high mortality rate and poor long term outcome in terms of quality of life, for those who survive. Similarly, patients with morbid obesity are at risk for respiratory complications when subjected to anaesthesia and surgery. LÄS MER
3. Recruitment of small size lungs - experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Patients - both children and adults - undergoing anesthesia and mechanical ventilation rapidly develop atelectasis. Even more severe problems occur in patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome. LÄS MER
4. Respiratory mechanics during mechanical ventilation in health and in disease
Sammanfattning : The elastic pressure-volume (Pel-V) curve of the respiratory system can be used as a guide for improved ventilator management. It may indicate risks of lung damage associated with collapse or overdistension of lung units. LÄS MER
5. FRC in acute lung injury. Experimental and clinical studies
Sammanfattning : Respiratory failure due to acute lung injury (ALI) of diffuse inflammatory origin is a major cause of respiratory failure treated in intensive care units. In ALI, FRC is reduced by various mechanisms associated with hypoxemia and consolidation of the lung. LÄS MER
