Conversely, the lungs of the LVt pigs universally had bibasilar atelectasis suggesting that the PEEP scale guided by the ARDSnet protocol was insufficient to oppose the force of the IAP on the lower lung lobes.
Immediately following injury, pigs were randomized into (1) LVt (n = 3), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 5 cmH2O, V t 6 cc kg−1, FiO2 21%%, and guided by the ARDSnet protocol or (2) APRV (n = 3), P High 16 22 cmH2O, P Low 0 cmH2O, T High 4.5 s, T Low set to terminate the peak expiratory flow at 75%%, and FiO2 21%%.
RES summarized the transcripts guided by the interview protocol.
Three researchers (PS, HB, BS) performed the triangulation process separately guided by the triangulation protocol of Farmer (sorting, convergence coding, convergence assessment, completeness assessment) [ 25].
Two researchers (LF, PS) performed the triangulation process guided by the triangulation protocol of Farmer to answer research question 2 [ 21].
As this study focuses on the renal effects of dexmedetomidine and hemodynamics were strictly guided by the study protocol (Table 1), hemodynamics are not reported.
Guided by the search protocol applied in a similar review of global scope in Baral et al, 3 the following medical subject heading (MESH) terms were used as title keywords in database searches conducted: HIV AND (MSM OR homosexual AND Viet*) OR (men who have sex with men AND Viet*) OR (Human Immune Deficiency Syndrome) and limited to reports in the English language.
In all pharmacies, both in the control group and in the experimental group, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians were instructed to provide education at first dispensing (EAFD) and education at second dispensing (EASD) to new statin users, guided by the same protocols for EAFD and EASD.
The intervention development was guided by the Intervention Mapping protocol, ensuring a theory-informed and evidence-based intervention.
