Objective: Compared with standard medical therapy (SMT), noninvasive ventilation (NIV) does not reduce the need for reintubation in unselected patients who develop respiratory failure after extubation. The goal of this study was to assess whether early application NIV, immediately extubation, is effective preventing postextubation an at-risk population. Design: Multiple-center, randomized controlled study. Setting: Multiple hospitals. Patients: Ninety-seven consecutive similar baseline...
Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, associated with cardiovascular complications and a significant impact on quality of life. Catheter ablation an effective alternative to pharmacological treatment; however, optimal technique predictors recurrence remain subjects debate. Objective: To evaluate efficacy safety strategies for AF, considering different techniques, predictors, clinical impact. Methods: A systematic review based 11 studies published...
Nitrogen balance (NB) is considered a good marker of adequate protein intake and it has been suggested to be predictor patients' health outcomes. However, in literature, there lack large randomized trials examining NB-guided patients intensive care units (ICUs). A controlled trial enrolling admitted ICU was done compare changes NB. Participants were standard or protein-fortified diet (protein 1.8 g/kg/day according the guidelines Society Critical Care Medicine American for Parenteral Enteral...
In order to explain the time dependency of resistance and elastance respiratory system, a linear viscoelastic model (Maxwell body) has been proposed. this maximal pressure (Pvisc.max) developed within tissues lung chest wall at end constant-flow (V') inflation given (tI) is by: Pvisc,max = R2V'(1-e(-tI/tau2), where R2 tau2 are, respectively, constant Maxwell body. After rapid airway occlusion t1, tracheal (Ptr) decays according following function: Ptr(t) Pvisc(t) + Prs,st...
Adequate nutrition of critically ill patients plays a key role in the modulation metabolic response to stress.This paper presents development protocol for randomized controlled trial (RCT) aimed at comparing clinical outcomes intensive care unit (ICU) administered with standard and protein-fortified diet. Together RCT study protocol, results observational analysis conducted assess feasibility are presented.An on adult admitted ICU undergoing mechanical ventilation absence renal or hepatic...
An 84-year-old woman, who had been admitted to the emergency department (ED) several times because of dyspnoea, was treated for acute exacerbation chronic respiratory failure without satisfactory clinical improvement.According her medical history, 8 years earlier, she underwent a complicated cardiosurgical procedure that required tracheostomy and mechanical ventilation in post-operative period 45 days.Traditional X-Ray did not show any abnormal findings; however, high resolution thorax...
