ACUTE respiratory acidosis is being recognized with increasing frequency in patients with chronic lung disease. It is a life-threatening complication demanding immediate and vigorous treatment, which ...
A discrepancy between the predicted ventilation standards and the actual ventilation requirements may be caused by an increase in the physiologic dead space or by an increased carbon dioxide ...
Introduction: Patients undergoing lung cancer (LC) surgery often develop pulmonary infection (PI) due to poor sputum excretion ability leading to accumulation of secretions. Bronchoalveolar lavage ...
Hypoxemia is defined as a condition where arterial oxygen tension or partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) is below the normal value, which is typically between 80 and 100 mmHg. Alveolar ventilation is ...

High-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) might have reduced need for endotracheal intubation for persistent hypercapnia during acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive ...
Bott and associates [20] reported the first prospective randomized clinical trial of nMV in A/C mode compared with conventional medical therapy in patients with acute exacerbations of COPD. In this ...
Noninvasive ventilation, specifically non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure delivered by mask, has now become standard care for the management of a number ...
