Drug-induced respiratory depression is a major cause of serious adverse events. Adequate oxygenation is very important during sedated esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD). Nasal breathing often shifts to oral breathing during open mouth EGD. A mandibular advancement bite block was developed for EGD
A 63-year-old man of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm was transferred to our department. Thoracic and abdominal enhanced CT scan revealed a Crawford's type I A thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm ruptured into the right extrapleural and retroperitoneal spaces. Without any more additional examination,
OBJECTIVE
To compare the efficacy of positive pressure ventilation applied through a mask versus an endotracheal tube, using anesthetized/paralyzed foals as a model for foals with hypoventilation.
METHODS
Six 1-month-old foals.
METHODS
A crossover design was used to compare the physiologic response
Silent sinus syndrom is rare and slow progressive disorder associated with asymptomatic chronic maxillary sinusitis and collapse of the orbital floor. The most common manifestations are enophtalmos, hypoglobus and pseudoretraction upper eyelid. Silent sinus syndrome is almost a unilateral condition
BACKGROUND
Effective O2 delivery and accurate end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) sampling are essential features of nasal cannulae (NCs) in patients with compromised respiratory status. We studied 4 NC designs: bifurcated nasal prongs (NPs) with O2 delivery and CO2 sensing in both NPs (Hudson), separate O2/CO2
OBJECTIVE
There is a need for new methods of increasing systemic oxygenation in patients with hypoxia due to potentially reversible pulmonary failure. The goal of this study was to determine if it is possible to increase systemic oxygenation by perfusing the thoracic cavity with oxygenated
Acute respiratory failure is caused by a wide range of etiologies. Progression to cardiopulmonary arrest and ultimately death is likely in the absence of effective and timely airway management. Therefore, one of the primary goals of airway management is to provide adequate ventilation and
Dental procedures in mentally retarded children is challenging for both dentist and for anesthesiologist. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dental care procedures under general anesthesia with sevoflurane by means of laryngeal mask in mentally retarded children. The
Diaphragmatic rupture during labor is uncommon and generally occurs in patients with a history of congenital diaphragmatic hernia or traumatic abdominal or chest injury. We present a case of a 41-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain, vomiting and hypoventilation four days after a
In this study, the end-tidal PCO2 (PETCO2) during the night was measured. The PETCO2 signal was obtained by introducing a cannula through the nose into the nasopharyngeal cavity. The usefulness of this method to identify nocturnal hypoventilation was studied in 29 patients with chronic obstructive
Intratympanic pressures were measured by tympanometer in forty ears free from disease. In the recumbent position, the first tympanogram was obtained in the morning at awakening, before swallowing. The second pressure measurement was performed in the upright position after swallowing and chewing.
OBJECTIVE
To explore the relationship between children obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and nasal diseases.
METHODS
Three hundred and thirty-eight cases of pediatric OSAHS confirmed by polysomnography (PSG) had been enrolled as the treatment group, and divided into mild subgroup,
To define X-ray signs of restrictive pneumothorax, the authors analyzed X-ray films of 225 newborns and babies of the first 3 months of life who were examined for respiratory disorders and acute respiratory diseases. Restrictive pneumothorax was detected in 19 (8.44%) infants. In 14 patients, gas
BACKGROUND
Breathing-related sleep disorders cover several conditions (isolated snoring, UARS - upper airway resistance syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea, hypopnea, obesity hypoventilation syndrome) characterized by a variety of symptoms and complex etiology. The conditions can be successfully
The results of treatment were analyzed in 118 patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis. In patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis, generation of therapeutic hypoventilation and atelectasis of the affected part of the lung by means of an endobronchial valve contributes to
