Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure for Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Twins Infants

nCPAPBiPAP1 more

The investigators compared advantages and disadvantages of two forms of noninvasive respiratory support -bi-level positive airway pressure(BiPAP) or nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) -as a primary mode of ventilation in preterm twins infants with respiratory distress syndrome

Evaluation of POC Lung Ultrasound Combined With Pressure-volume Curve to Titration Adjust PEEP for...

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Using lung ultrasound re-aeration score(LUS-RAS) combined with pressure-volume curve(PVC) adjust maintain positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) after recruitment maneuver, to achieve real-time adjustment, reduce ventilation-associated lung injury and the purpose of effective lung recruitment.

Impact of Synchronized Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation Using NAVA in Preterm Infants...

Respiratory Distress Syndrome

The nasal CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure), is a technique of noninvasive ventilation commonly used in neonatal intensive care units, and has recently been used in association with nasal intermittent mandatory ventilation (NIPPV - intermittent Nasal Positive Pressure Ventilation), which consists of the application of respiratory positive pressure cycles during the application of nasal CPAP, resulting in high pharyngeal pressures. The NIPPV has advantages over traditional CPAP, including the prevention of atelectasis, improved respiratory mechanics and decreased work of breathing in premature infants. A refinement of this technique is the use of positive pressure breaths associated with nasal CPAP synchronously in relation to the newborn's inspiratory effort (SNIPPV - Synchronized Nasal Positive Pressure Ventilation). Synchronization allows that the cycles of inspiratory positive pressure provided by the ventilator coincide with the inspiratory effort, increasing the system efficacy. The Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA) is a mode of partial ventilatory support based on the use of electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) to control the mechanical ventilator. The ventilatory assistance starts according to respiratory needs of the patient, its use in very low birth weight infants showed an improvement in patient-ventilator interaction, even in the presence of leak around the endotracheal tube. This prospective randomized, clinical trial aims to evaluate, in preterm infants with gestational age lower than 34 weeks with respiratory failure treated with noninvasive ventilatory support, the impact of SNIPPV with neural adjustment (NAVA) on success ventilation and the need for endotracheal intubation when compared to treatment with traditional CPAP.

Tolerance of nHFPV Versus nCPAP in Neonatal Respiratory Distress

Neonatal Respiratory Distress

Respiratory distress is the main cause of morbimortality in preterm and term neonates. In most of the case, these babies required the use of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) delivered by a non invasive device. Nasal continuous airway positive pressure (nCPAP) is widely used in neonatal intensive care unit. Nasal high frequency percussive ventilation (nHFPV) can be used as non invasive device to deliver PEEP, and improved lung clearance. We hypothesized that nHFPV can be used to deliver PEEP in preterm and term newborn with respiratory distress with the same tolerance as nCPAP. To compare the tolerance of these devices we used cerebral tissue oxygenation (rSO2c) measured by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).

Simvastatin Effect on the Incidence of Acute Lung Injury/Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ALI/ARDS)...

Adult Respiratory Distress SyndromeAcute Lung Injury

Acute Lung Injury/Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a serious and frequently encountered entity in modern ICUs. Sepsis remains the most common cause of ALI/ARDS and carries the worst prognosis. The disease is characterized by an intense inflammatory process. This inflammation plays a major role in the development of gas exchange abnormalities seen in the course of the disease. Statins, primarily used as lipid-lowering agents, are now known to possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antithrombogenic and vascular function-restoring actions. Therefore the investigators propose to determine if Simvastatin may be useful in decreasing the incidence of this deadly syndrome in critically ill patients.

NIPPV and nBiPAP Methods in Preterm Infants With Respiratory Distress Syndrome

PrematurityRespiratory Distress Syndrome

Purpose is to compare introduction of NIPPV (Nasal Intermittent Positive-Pressure Ventilation) and nBiPAP (Nasal Bi-level Positive Airway Pressure) in terms of mechanical ventilation (MV) need (non-invasive respiratory support failure) and surfactant need within the first 72 hours of life in preterm infants with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) at 26-30 weeks of gestation.

Functional Respiratory Imaging of Airways in ARDS

ARDSHuman

This is a prospective single-center cohort trial to compare regional bronchial recruitment, bronchial distention and alveolar recruitment in 6 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The investigators used CT scan images as the imaging modality, and the subjects were scanned on end-expiratory lung volume with different positive end-expiratory pressures. Those images were post-processed to evaluate the airways.
