RESPIRATORY PARAMETERS, PULMONARY REHABILITATION and SURVIVAL in COVID-19 PATIENTS
… viral illness, which targets patient’s respiratory system. Objectives: To (1) determine whether respiratory mechanics, oxygenation impairment, sociodemographics, and multimorbidity of mechanically ventilated COVID-19 subjects are associated with survival; (2) determine the factors …

EFFECTS OF ARTIFICIALLY - INDUCED INTRINSIC POSITIVE END - EXPIRATORY PRESSURE IN MECHANICALLY VENTILATED PATIENTS WITH ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE.
… has been suggested that, in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), relative to conventional mechanical ventilation with application of external positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEPe), mechanical ventilation artificially inducing intrinsic PEEP (PEEPi) worsens arterial oxygen tension …

Optimisation of neonatal ventilation
… <br/>• In prematurely born infants with acute respiratory distress, to determine the optimal level of volume targeted ventilation. <br/>• In term and prematurely born infants, to assess the effect on work of breathing of the addition of pressure support (PSV) to synchronised intermittent …

A multimodal approach to investigate the effects of respiration on Fontan flow to inform strategies for circulatory support
… models which recapitulate the interaction of respiratory biomechanics and Fontan flow, to leverage the simulator platform and a clinical study to characterize the respiratory impact on Fontan hemodynamics and retrograde flow, and to design and evaluate promising approaches for the circulatory …

Bestimmung der dynamischen nichtlinearen Atemmechanikparameter in der Pädiatrie
Bei der künstlichen Beatmung, die heute praktisch ausschliesslich in der Form der intermittierenden Überdruckbeatmung zur Anwendung kommt, wird das Atemgas bei jedem Atemzug mit Überdruck in die Lungen gepresst, was per se einen erheblichen mechanischen Stress für das Lungengewebe bedeutet. Aus der …

Feasibility of Individualized Airway Surgery in Horses
… knowledge of laryngeal conformation and fluid mechanics with various surgical procedures for application in patients as an evaluation for the surgery of best outcome and as a step toward patient-specific diagnosis and treatment of upper airway disorders. The first study built upon a previously …

Exploring Ciliary Dynamics: Assessing Motility and Induced Velocity in Human Airway Cell Cultures
The human respiratory tract going from the nose to the terminal bronchioles is lined by a mucociliated epithelium. Here, cilia underpin an essential defence mechanism known as MCC. This process clears inhaled pathogens and contaminants from the airways and exhibits various degrees of complexity. …

Investigation of Deformable Image Registration Based Lung Ventilation Mapping for Radiation Therapy Using a Hybrid Hyperpolarized Gas MRI Technique
… on a pair of anatomical lung images at different respiratory phases to obtain the displacement vector field (DVF) between both phases, and generate a lung ventilation map from the Jacobian Determinant of the DVF. This DIR-based method is advantageous in its high image resolutions and simpler …
