Sentence examples for mechanical ventilation directed from inspiring English sources

8 In a single centre, phase I randomised controlled trial, mechanical ventilation directed by esophageal pressure was compared with ventilation using the ARDSNet protocol.

The Esophageal Pressure-Guided Ventilation 2 Trial (EPVent2) aims to examine the impact of mechanical ventilation directed at maintaining a positive transpulmonary pressure (PTP) in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS.

We present the study protocol and data analysis plans for a phase II, multicentre randomised clinical trial that will assess the impact of mechanical ventilation directed at maintaining a positive PTP in patients with ARDS.

9 To further explore the use of PTP values to guide ventilation in patients with ARDS, our group, with the support of the National Heart , Lung and Blood Institute(NHLBI), has designed the EPVent2 study, a randomised clinical trial that aims to examine the impact of mechanical ventilation directed at maintaining a positive PTP in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS.

Both groups received protocol driven mechanical ventilation, goal directed sedation with daily interruption, daily spontaneous breathing trials, and glycemic control.

A major and paradoxical complication of mechanical ventilation is direct trauma to already ailing lungs caused by over-distention and damage of alveolar tissue due to excessive positive pressures or volumes in the lung [1].

Treatment of respiratory Candida spp. colonization in non-neutropenic critically ill patients by inhaled ABDC may not affect respiratory colonization but may increase duration of mechanical ventilation, because of direct toxicity of the drug on the lung.

In conclusion, treatment of pulmonary Candida spp. colonization in non-neutropenic critically ill patients by inhaled ABDC may not facilitate respiratory decolonization but may increase duration of mechanical ventilation, because of direct pulmonary toxicity of the drug.

The generally longer survival time of PMV patients with COPD corroborated the hypothesis that the establishment of mechanical ventilation provides more direct access for clinicians to solve problems coming from the respiratory tract, while patients with other underlying diseases may not be improved significantly unless their underlying disorders were also resolved.

Mechanical ventilation at our centre is directed at allowing adequate expiratory effort, with relatively short inspiratory time and longer expiratory times, with respiratory rates decreased to allow for improved lung emptying based on auscultation, ventilator graphics and measurement of inspiratory plateau pressures.

Weaning protocols have been show to be better than traditional physician directed discontinuation of mechanical ventilation.
