1. Optimizing mechanical ventilation in extremely preterm infants
Sammanfattning : Extremely low gestational age newborns (ELGANs) i.e. infants born before 28 weeks of gestational age (GA), require respiratory support during their hospital stay, and a majority needs mechanical ventilation (MV) at some time point. LÄS MER
2. Aspects of lung mechanics during mechanical ventilation
Sammanfattning : Background: One of the most common diagnoses in the intensive care unit is acute respiratory failure. In its most severe form it is called acute respiratory distress syndrome and often requires mechanical ventilation. LÄS MER
3. Lung and chest wall properties during mechanical ventilation
Sammanfattning : Background: Mechanical ventilation causes injury to the lungs due to high pressures and high volumes. Pressure affecting the lungs, the transpulmonary pressure, needs to be monitored to minimise harmful side effects but then lung and chest wall mechanics need to be separately considered. LÄS MER
4. Weaning from mechanical ventilation – from the patient, next-of-kin and healthcare professionals’ perspective
Sammanfattning : Critically ill patients with failing respiratory and vital body functions might need invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). When the patient’s condition improves, the need for respiratory support decreases and weaning from IMV begins. LÄS MER
5. Evaluation of Respiratory Mechanics by Flow Signal Analysis : With Emphasis on Detecting Partial Endotracheal Tube Obstruction During Mechanical Ventilation
Sammanfattning : Evaluating respiratory mechanics during dynamic conditions without interrupting ongoing ventilation and flow, adds to the information obtained from the mechanics derived from static (= no flow) conditions, i.e., the flow signal has the potential to provide information on the properties of the respiratory system (including the tubing system).
