Hypocapnia/alkalosis is a consequence of several lung and metabolic pathologies. The aim of this study was to determine whether the increase of fluid filtration rate (FFR) that occurs during Hypocapnia/alkalosis circumstances is determined by hypocapnia, alkalosis or both. 7 groups were formed
Winter athletes have an increased incidence of asthma, suggesting that repetitive hyperventilation with cold air may predispose individuals to airways disease. We used a canine model of exercise-induced hyperpnea to examine the effects of repeated hyperventilation with cool, dry air (i.e., dry air
Acidosis has often been reported in inflamed tissues, and changes in strong relevant ions at the site of inflammation may provoke alterations in blood acid-base status. We measured changes in blood acid-base variables during carrageenan-induced inflammation in rats. We found a mixed acid-base
Objective: To investigate the effect of hypercapnia at admission on the clinical prognosis and the severity of infection in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP).
Methods:
BACKGROUND
Volume-controlled ventilation modes have been shown to reduce duration of mechanical ventilation, incidence of chronic lung disease, failure of primary mode of ventilation, hypocarbia, severe intraventricular hemorrhage, pneumothorax, and periventricular leukomalacia in preterm infants
Bronchial asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways in which many cells play a role, in particular mast cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, T-lymphocytes and epithelial cells. In susceptible individuals this inflammation causes recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest
Heart failure (HF) and sleep apnoea are common disorders which frequently coexist. Two main types of apnoea occur: one is obstructive which, through recurring episodes of snoring, hypoxaemia, large negative intra-thoracic pressures and arousals from sleep leading to downstream inflammatory and
A feature common to all congenital or inflammatory abnormalities of the cervical spine is an actual or potential reduction in the lumen of the spinal canal. The spinal cord and nerve roots are at risk. During intubation, and positioning the patient on the table, all untoward movements of the
Although neutrophils are a critical component of the inflammatory process, their functional regulation is incompletely understood. Of note, although pCO2 varies physiologically and pathologically in the neutrophilic milieu, its affect on neutrophil biological processes is unresolved. We demonstrate
Recognition that volume, not pressure, is the key factor in ventilator-induced lung injury and the association of hypocarbia with neonatal brain injury demonstrate the importance of better control delivered tidal volume. New microprocessor-based ventilator modalities combine advantages of
Recognition that volume, not pressure, is the key factor in ventilator-induced lung injury and awareness of the association of hypocarbia and brain injury foster the desire to better control delivered tidal volume. Recently, microprocessor-based modifications of pressure-limited, time-cycled
Recognition that volume, not pressure, is the key factor in ventilator-induced lung injury and the association of hypocarbia and brain injury dictate the need to better control delivered tidal volume. Volume-controlled ventilation, though much improved, still suffers from loss of volume due to
BACKGROUND
The physiological challenges posed by hypobaric hypoxia warrant exploration of pharmacological entities to improve acclimatization to hypoxia. The present study investigates the preclinical efficacy of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) to improve acclimatization to simulated hypobaric
BACKGROUND
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) presents with well-recognized signs of intestinal inflammation such as bilious vomiting, bloody stool, abdominal distension, and tenderness. The authors observed otherwise unexplained changes in the respiratory status requiring increased respiratory support
OBJECTIVE
Intraventricular haemorrhage (IVH) causes some of the most adverse outcomes in infants with birthweight <1000 g. Incomplete antenatal steroids, acidosis, inflammation, postnatal transfer, delayed surfactant administration, hypothermia, hypotension, hypocapnia, persistent ductus arteriosus
