  1. 11. Monitoring alveolar recruitment in the critically ill - Patient studies using electric impedance tomography and volume-dependent compliance

    Författare :Karin Lowhagen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ALI; ARDS; compliance; end-expiratory lung volume; EELV; EIT; electric impedance tomography; lung recruitment; morbid obesity; PEEP; recruitment manoeuvre; regional ventilation; 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

  2. 12. Effects of lung-protective ventilation on microbial growth and inflammatory biomarkers in experimental sepsis

    Författare :Axel Nyberg; Markus Castegren; Kristofer Nilsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anesthesia; intensive care;

    Sammanfattning : Sepsis is a severe disease state characterised by a dysregulated host response to infection. The need for mechanical ventilation is common in the sepsis population, for primarily pulmonary reasons or as a result of other organ dysfunction. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Surfactant metabolism in the newborn : the impact of ventilation strategy and lung disease

    Författare :Kajsa Bohlin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Surface active agents; pulmonary surfactant; respiratory distress syndrome; stable isotope; artificial respiration; continuous positive airway pressure; metabolism; rabbit; compliance; preterm; newborn;

    Sammanfattning : Developmental deficiency in pulmonary surfactant leads to respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm infants, but all newborns may have impaired surfactant metabolism secondary to lung disease or ventilator induced lung injury. Exogenous surfactant treatment is usually administered in conjunction with mechanical ventilation. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Tools for protective lung ventilation. The elastic pressure-volume curve and aspiration of dead space

    Författare :Edoardo De Robertis; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical physics; radiology; tomografi; medicinsk instrumentering; radiologi; Klinisk fysiologi; tomography; medical instrumentation; Respiratory system; Andningsorganen;

    Sammanfattning : Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) may contribute to morbidity and mortality of acute lung injury (ALI). Lung protective ventilation (LPV), that reduces VILI, may involve low tidal volume (Vt). Particularly low Vt is possible if dead space ventilation is reduced e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Aspects on ventilation induced stress and strain on regional and global inflammation in experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome

    Författare :Jaime Retamal Montes; Anders Larsson; Göran Hedenstierna; Alejandro Bruhn; Björn Jonson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ARDS; VILI; respiratory rate; strain; PET;

    Sammanfattning : Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving therapy in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a condition that affects 3000 patients/year in Sweden with a mortality rate of about 40%. However, MV may induce or worsen lung injury causing “ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI)”. LÄS MER
