  1. 21. Inverse ration ventilation : experimental studies on pulmonary integrity and gas exchange

    Författare :Ulf Ludwigs; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :respiration; artificial gas exchange lung function acute respiratory distress syndromeacute lung injury inverse ratio ventilation ventilator induced lung injury intrinsic PEEP lungclearance;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, pulmonary and circulatory effects of inverse ratio ventilation (IRV) have been studied experimentally. Comparisons have been made between volume and pressure controlled IRV and conventional ventilation under conditions of equal minute ventilation and end-expiratory alveolar pressure levels. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Cardiopulmonary bypass and the kidney - studies on patients undergoing cardiac surgery

    Författare :Lukas Lannemyr; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac surgery; cardiopulmonary bypass; glomerular filtration rate; renal blood flow; renal oxygenation; tubular injury; N-acetyl-ß-D-glucoseaminidase;

    Sammanfattning : Acute kidney injury is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and has a major impact on morbidity, mortality and costs. The mechanism of CPB-related renal impairment is not fully understood. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Pulmonary disease in infancy, perinatal inflammatory risk factors and prophylaxis

    Författare :Lena Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Objective: In the last decades the survival rate of preterm infants has increased substantially.1-3 Despite improved intensive neonatal care the incidence of chronic lung disease in infants born preterm has not changed. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Regional pulmonary vasoreactivity, with special reference to nitric oxide, prostacyclin and body posture

    Författare :Danguolé Rimeika; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Regional pulmonary perfusion; nitric oxide; prostacyclin; NOS-inhibition; COX-inhibition; shunt; one-lung ventilation;

    Sammanfattning : The primary aim of the study was to investigate possible mechanisms behind the improved arterial oxygenation in ventilator-treated patients with acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) when turned into prone position. A secondary aim was to discover new knowledge of possible importance for treatment of patients with oxygenation problems in intensive care and during anesthesia. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Mechanisms of Lung Injury in a Mouse Model of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

    Författare :Anna Hogmalm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :bronchopulmonary dysplasia; transgenic mice; inflammation; lung; interleukin-1; αvβ6 integrin; mmp-9; surfactant;

    Sammanfattning : Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease that affects preterm infants. Increased levels of inflammatory mediators in the amniotic fluid and in the lungs of preterm infants are associated with the development of BPD. LÄS MER
