Introduction and aim: Studies regarding asynchrony in patients the cardiac postoperative period are still only a few. The main objective of our study was to compare asynchronies incidence its index (AI) 3 different modes ventilation (volume-controlled [VCV], pressure-controlled [PCV] pressure-support [PSV]) after ICU admission for care. Methods: A prospective parallel randomised trial setting non-profitable hospital Brazil. participants were scheduled surgery. Patients randomly allocated VCV...
Respiratory muscle strength in patients with an artificial airway is commonly assessed as the maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and measured using analogue or digital manometers. Recently, new electronic loading devices have been proposed to measure respiratory strength. This study evaluates agreement between MIPs by a manometer those according device being weaned from mechanical ventilation.In this prospective study, standard MIP was obtained protocol adapted Marini, which repetitive...
