In this study, 120 patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) will be included on a two years-period in an intensive care unit (Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Marseille, France). Those patients will benefit from a blood test at inclusion in order to measure several coagulation biomarkers, including EV-TF. Subsequently, …
Predicting fluid responsiveness is primordial when caring for patients with circulatory shock as it allows correction of preload-dependent low cardiac output states, while preserving patients of the deleterious effects of excessive fluid resuscitation. Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) treated with prone positioning (PP) are a specific subset …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common acute and critical disease in clinic. The clinical mortality is as high as 30%-40%. At present, there is no specific treatment. Erythropoietin (EPO), also known as erythrocyte- stimulating factor, erythropoietin, has a certain amount in normal human body, mainly synthesized by liver …
Treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) relies on invasive mechanical ventilation with supposedly protective settings (low tidal volume ventilation). Mortality of ARDS remains high in observational studies (40 to 50%). Approximately 30% of ARDS patients exhibit tidal hyperinflation despite low tidal volume ventilation, suggesting that personalization of tidal volume …
Critically ill patients need reasonable and moderate analgesic and sedative treatment to eliminate or reduce pain, anxiety and restlessness, improve patient comfort and cooperation, reduce patients' stress response, protect organ function and optimize prognosis. As a semi-synthetic opioid receptor agonist-antagonist, nalbuphine can bind to μ, κand δ receptors, has partial …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is when a person's lungs become inflamed, which can be caused by infection, trauma, surgery, blood transfusion, or burn. ARDS often leads to a situation where the person cannot breathe independently and needs machines' help. Once the lungs are inflamed, the small air sacs responsible …
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome caused by intrapulmonary and/or extrapulmonary causes, characterized by intractable hypoxemia. Studies have shown that the sympathetic nervous system is over-activated in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. A large retrospective study showed a reduction in mortality in ARDS patients treated with …
Spontaneous breathing during the transition from controlled to assisted ventilation in ARDS may be harmful, as high respiratory drive can generate large transpulmonary pressure swings and worsen lung injury. Higher PEEP may mitigate this by reducing inspiratory effort and lung stress, but patient response is variable and difficult to predict. …
The RECRUIT study is a multinational, multicenter physiological observational study conducted by the PLUG working group. It is a single-day study (1.5-2 hours) associated with specific lung (de)recruitment maneuvers to verify the feasibility of measuring the potential for lung recruitment in mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS by electrical impedance tomography …
A predictive model for NARDS was established based on perinatal risk factors. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent prenatal risk factors for NARDS. A Logistic regression model was constructed using the above independent risk factors and quantified in a nomogram to construct a visualization model for …
