The effect of expiratory endotracheal tube (ETT) resistance on dynamic lung inflation is unknown. We hypothesized that ETT causes hyperinflation by impeding emptying. further compensation for automatic (ATC) attenuates hyperinflation. A ventilator equipped with the original ATC mode and operating in a pressure-targeted was connected to physical model consists four equally sized glass bottles filled copper wool. Inspiratory pressure, peak flow, trapped volume intrinsic positive end-expiratory...
Rare Complication of a Common Disease: Thyroid and Epileptic Seizures Abstract. A myxedema crisis is life-threatening complication hypothyroidism (mortality 20-25 %).

Treatment with levothyroxine (possibly combined T3) should be instituted immediately, along glucocorticoids, until co-existing adrenal insufficiency has been ruled out. Supportive measures treatment underlying diseases implemented. We are presenting the case patient...
