Purpose Among acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients in intensive care units,
the efficacy of lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) use is uncertain taking into account the …

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) causes a heterogeneous lung injury and
remains a serious medical problem, with one of the only treatments being supportive care in …

Objectives To evaluate the incidence and mortality of acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS) in medical/respiratory intensive care units (MICUs/RICUs) to assess ventilation …

Robotic-assisted surgery has improved the precision and accuracy of surgical movements
with subsequent improved outcomes. However, it requires steep Trendelenburg positioning …

Background It is unclear how positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and recruitment
maneuvers impact patients during one-lung ventilation (OLV). We conducted a systematic …

Background: Recruitment maneuvers are used in patients with ARDS to enhance
oxygenation and lung mechanics. Heterogeneous lung and chest-wall mechanics lead to …

Refractory hypoxemia in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome treated with
mechanical ventilation is one of the most challenging conditions in human and veterinary …

The applicability of inhalation therapy to some severe pulmonary conditions is often
compromised by limited delivery rates (ie total dose) and low deposition efficiencies in the …

Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility and influence of
opening the lung strategy ventilation on burned patients complicated with ARDS. Methods A …
