The aim of the study was to describe the pattern of respiratory oscillation mechanics and responses to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in bronchiolitis. Six infants were studied during the course of mechanical ventilation. A 20 Hz sinusoidal pressure variation was applied at the endotracheal

The purpose of this study was noninvasive assessment of respiratory compliance and resistance in mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). To this end, flow, change in lung volume, and airway pressure were measured at the proximal tip of the endotracheal tubes in twenty
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the predictive value of the ventilation index (VI) in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We performed a 10-year retrospective chart review of children who were admitted to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit with a diagnosis of
Surfactant deficiency in newborn infants with hyaline membrane disease (HMD) reduces peripheral airway stability, leading to lung atelectasis, inhomogeneity of distribution of ventilation, ventilation/perfusion mismatch, and hypoxemia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immediate effect of ex
