1. Pathogenesis and treatment of chemical-induced lung injury
Sammanfattning : Inhalation of chemical substances can cause irritation to airways and in high doses acute airway injury. When mice are exposed to the alkylating nitrogen mustard analogue melphalan they develop an acute airway inflammation with a rapid influx of neutrophils to the lungs. LÄS MER
2. Pathophysiology and treatment of chlorine gas-induced lung injury : an experimental study in pigs
Sammanfattning : One of the most threatening scenarios in disaster medicine is the accidental release of toxic gases with the exposure of many people. In this respect, chlorine gas remains a significant threat due to its abundant use and transport through densely populated areas in modem society. LÄS MER
3. Regional Lung Kinetics of Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury and Protective-Ventilation Strategies Studied by Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography
Sammanfattning : Mechanical ventilation in itself can harm the lung and cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), which can induce or aggravate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Much debate remains over pivotal concepts regarding the pathophysiology of VILI, especially about the precise contribution, kinetics, and primary role of potential VILI mechanisms. LÄS MER
4. Open and closed endotracheal suctioning. Experimental and human studies
Sammanfattning : Background: The practice of endotracheal suctioning of ventilator treated patients is necessary to remove secretions to prevent obstruction of the endotracheal-tracheal tube and lower airways. This very common procedure creates a large variety of heart-lung interferences. LÄS MER
5. Regional Lung Mechanics and Influence of an Active Diaphragm in Experimental Lung Injury
Sammanfattning : Despite being an essential life-support strategy in severe respiratory failure, mechanical ventilation can, if not optimally set and monitored, lead to injury of the lung parenchyma and diaphragm. These conditions are called ventilator-induced lung injury and ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD), respectively. LÄS MER
