Sentence examples for ventilatory time from inspiring English sources

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of caudal anesthesia on outcomes (pediatric intensive care unit [PICU] length of stay, hospital length of stay, ventilatory time, early extubation rate) in pediatric patients undergoing congenital heart disease repair requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

The time from initiation of weaning to successful endotracheal extubation may account for as much as 40% of the overall ventilatory time [ 1].

Compliance with the new ventilatory guidelines was facilitated by the relatively short ventilatory time (< 3 hours), the absence of acute critical illnesses and the commitment of a small number of cardiothoracic anesthesiologists.

Left ventricular dysfunction was observed in two patients of group B. Although there was a reduced number of patients, these findings suggest that the BNP levels were related to the mechanical ventilatory time.

Studies that have addressed this issue in surgical patients have found no differences in the lung inflammatory response or outcome between low Vt or high Vt with short ventilatory times (from 1 to 3 hours) [ 23, 24], but found that high Vt increases proinflammatory mediators with longer ventilatory times [ 25- 27].

A retrospective Norwegian cohort study (n = 27,921) found that the hospital mortality was 21.4% in patients aged 50 79.9 years and 32.4% in patients aged > 80 years, who also received less mechanical ventilation (40.6% versus 56.1%) and had shorter median ventilatory support time (0.8 days versus 1.9 days) [ 22].

and more often elective admissions (17 vs. 9%), but did not differ significantly from the rest of the FINNALI study patients in gender, hospital or 90-day mortality, SAPS II score, SOFA score at 24 hours, operative status, or ventilatory support time (data not shown).

It has been demonstrated that neonates who receive sustained inflations followed by early nasally delivered continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) through a nasopharyngeal tube and started in the delivery room had shorter ventilatory support times and less need for intubation and surfactant [ 26– 28].

The following information was collected: demographic parameters and APACHE II score, parameters of hemodynamic, respiratory and renal function, length of ICU stay, duration of invasive ventilatory support (ventilator time), and time between extubation and discharge.

We observed significant differences in the duration of ventilatory support over time, with a longer duration of mechanical ventilation in the most recent study of 2010 (Table  4).

Although this method is more accurate as it takes into account intra- and inter-individual variability, it still does not correlate ventilatory variations with time.
