Various developmental aspects of respiratory physiology put infants and young children at
an increased risk of respiratory failure, which is associated with a higher rate of critical …

Background Evidence from lung protective ventilation (LPV) in the acute respiratory distress
syndrome has commonly been applied to guide periprocedural ventilation in lung …

Maintaining spontaneous breathing has both potentially beneficial and deleterious
consequences in patients with acute respiratory failure, depending on the balance that can …

Mutual interactions between the diaphragm and lung transplantation (LTx) are known to
exist. Before LTx, many factors can exert notable impact on the diaphragmatic function, such …

Objective This study assessed the predictive value of electrical activity of the diaphragm
(EAdi) and the EAdi-derived monitoring index in the prognosis of patients with severe …

EditordWe analysed respiratory mechanics in a 33-yr-old female double-lung transplant
