1. 1. Non invasive ventilation in people with cystic fibrosis

   Författare :Cecilia Rodriguez Hortal; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common life shortening autosomal recessive inherited disease affecting Caucasian people. The two main clinical characteristics of CF are progressive pulmonary disease and pancreatic insufficiency. The goal of airway clearance technique (ACT) is to improve ventilation and mucociliary clearance. LÄS MER

3. 2. Intensive care in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease : treatment with non-invasive ventilation and long-term outcome

   Författare :Johan Berkius; Sten Walther; Folke Sjöberg; Hans Blomqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of chronic morbidity and mortality throughout the world. When we began this project our knowledge about the outcome of COPD patients admitted to the ICU in Sweden was scarce. LÄS MER

4. 3. Optimizing mechanical ventilation in extremely preterm infants

   Författare :Linda Wallström; Richard Sindelar; Anders Jonzon; Raffaele Dellaca'; Heikki Lukkarinen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mechanical ventilation; extremely preterm infant; forced oscillation technique; volume targeted ventilation; proportional assist ventilation; phrenic nerve activity; electrical activity of the diaphragm; Pediatrik; Pediatrics;

   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

5. 4. The preterm infant : evaluating and developing non-invasive respiratory strategies to avoid mechanical ventilation

   Författare :Snorri F Donaldsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Avoiding mechanical ventilation of preterm infants is important to prevent morbidity and mortality. Non-invasive ventilation and CPAP has been shown to be superior to intubation and mechanical ventilation in preventing chronic lung disease in very preterm infants.1 . CPAP for infants was first used in the early 70’s. LÄS MER

7. 5. On community acquired infections requiring intensive care

   Författare :Magnus Brink; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intensive care; infection; acute bacterial meningitis; beta-lactam antibiotics; cerebrospinal fluid; polymerase chain reaction; immunochromatographic test; influenza A H1N1; pandemic; non-invasive ventilation; necrotizing soft-tissue infection; inter-hospital transfer;

   Sammanfattning : Acute bacterial meningitis (ABM), influenza, and necrotizing soft-tissue infections (NSTIs) are diseases that in a short period of time can progress to become life threatening. Individuals with severe forms of these infections must be treated in an intensive care unit were monitoring and support of failing organs improve the chances of survival. LÄS MER
