Background: Mechanical ventilation in the prone position is used to improve oxygenation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. We sought to determine the effect of mechanical ...
Rationale: Positioning is considered vital to the maintenance of good lung ventilation by optimizing oxygen transport and gas exchange in ventilated premature infants. Previous studies suggest that ...
The influence of gravity on the distributions of ventilation and blood flow, as demonstrated by the effects of posture, is discussed and explained on the theoretical basis of gravitational gradients ...
Shortly after acute respiratory distress syndrome was first described, it was soon realized that mechanical ventilation, aside from being essential for the treatment of the disease, can also harm the ...
The impacts of the coronavirus can range from mild illness with no symptoms to severe illness with pneumonia and in critical cases, even respiratory failure. A new study conducted on patients with ...
Awake prone positioning is a well-established non-pharmacological intervention to improve lung oxygenation. During the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, this process has received ...
Pediatr Crit Care Med. 2013;14(2):171-177. In both groups of infants, there were no differences in oxygenation, a finding which is in agreement with a previous study which found no difference in ...
