Avalanche Phenomenon During Airways Opening in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Acute respiratory distress syndrome accounts for 23% of mechanically ventilated patients and is associated with high mortality rate. Although life-saving, mechanical ventilation may worsen lung injury through two main mechanisms: lung overdistension and atelectrauma. Indeed, the cyclic opening and closure of airways during tidal ventilation may cause lung and bronchial …
A Comparative Study of Glucocorticoids Efficacy in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
The aim of the work is to compare the efficacy of equivalent doses of methylprednisolone, dexamethasone and hydrocortisone in patients with ARDS
PEEP Titration and Lung Recruitment Potential Assessed by 3D EIT
In a population of ARDS patients, we explore the influence of different PEEP levels on regional ventilation distribution, ventilation homogeneity, and the center of ventilation, optimal PEEP and lung recruitment potential as well as the extent of lung collapse and overdistension as detected by 3D-EIT.
Prone Position Assessed by 3D EIT
To investigate global and regional changes in lung ventilation and perfusion induced by prone position in ARDS patients assessed by 3D-EIT. And to investigate the difference between 2D-EIT and 3D-EIT in prone position monitoring.
Ventilatory Parameters in Predicting Outcomes in ARDS Patients
This is a single-centre prospective observational study aimed to determine if Pocc (occlusion pressure at 100 msec), TCe ( Expiratory time constant ), Mechanical Stress power, Ventilatory ratio and C20/Cdyn would predict outcomes in patients with moderately severe ARDS (Acute respiratory distress syndrome), who are on mechanical ventilation
The PRE-VAIL Study
During the prone position, there may be an increase in intragastric pressure. The investigators focus on a scientific question: Whether reducing enteral nutrition before the prone position will benefit patients with severe mechanically ventilated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The experimental group had the enteral nutrition dose reduced before the …
SerpinB3 Expression, PAR2 and SCCA-PD Polymorphism in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
The Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a systemic syndrome characterized by severe respiratory failure, inflammation, loss of aerated tissue and high mortality. Recently, significant efforts have been made to phenotype ARDS patients through a wide range of new biomarkers and imaging indices with the goal of developing personalized treatments …
Incidence and Evolution of Heart-lung Interaction in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an inflammatory injury of the lungs caused by various serious illnesses, such as a bacterial or viral lung infection. It is treated by artificial ventilation with the application of positive pressure. Pulmonary injury, coupled with artificial ventilation, can lead to right heart failure which …
Study of the Immunological Pathophysiological Mechanisms Associated With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
About 10% of patients admitted to the ICU suffer from ARDS, with a mortality rate of around 35-45%. The lack of therapeutic innovation in ARDS can be partly explained by the heterogeneity of patients included under this definition. A better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the different patient phenotypes …
Effect of Esmolol on Oxygenation Index in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
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 …
