Objectives COVID-19 causes lung parenchymal and endothelial damage that lead to hypoxic acute respiratory failure (hARF). The influence of hARF severity on patients’ outcomes is still poorly ...
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A retirada precoce da ventilação mecânica (VM) é importante para reduzir a morbimortalidade de pacientes internados em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva. O objetivo deste estudo ...
OBJETIVO: Comparar a PaO2 ideal com a encontrada, a PaO2 ideal/FiO2 ambiente com a encontrada e a FiO2 ideal e encontrada em idosos ventilados mecanicamente. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal, no qual foram ...
ABSTRACT: Background: There is a paucity of data on the efficacy of ventilatory strategies in COVID-19-related ARDS. The aim of this study was to describe the effect of positive end-expiratory ...
The following is a summary of “Clinical Performance of Spo 2 /Fio 2 and Pao 2 /Fio 2 Ratio in Mechanically Ventilated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients: A Retrospective Study,” published in ...

The models use maximal deflection of esophageal pressure to quantify HFOT-related breathing effort (ΔPes) and the risk for strong breathing effort (ΔPes >10 cmH2O). Two models have been developed to ...
The alveolar-arterial gradient, often abbreviated as A-a gradient, is an essential tool in assessing a patient’s lung function and identifying various respiratory disorders. It represents the ...
