We aimed to characterise a large population of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with moderate-to-severe hypoxaemic acute respiratory failure (ARF) receiving continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) outside the intensive care unit (ICU), and ascertain whether duration CPAP application increased risk mortality for requiring intubation.In this retrospective, multicentre cohort study, we included adult COVID-19 patients, treated ICU ARF from 1 March 15 April, 2020. collected...
Abstract The rapid insurgence and spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) exceeded the limit intensive care unit (ICU) contingency plan Maggiore della Carità University Hospital (Novara, Italy) generating a crisis management condition. This brief report describes how prompt response to sudden request invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) was provided by addressing key elements health system surge capacity from crisis. In short time at relatively low cost, structural modification...
Despite the abundant literature on vasopressor therapy, few studies have focused vasopressor-sparing strategies in patients with shock. We performed a scoping-review of published evaluating by analyzing results from randomized controlled trials conducted shock, focus doses and/or duration reduction. analyzed 143 studies, mainly septic Our analysis demonstrated that several pharmacological and non-pharmacological are associated decrease therapy. These as follows: implementing weaning...
<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> The assessment of diaphragmatic kinetics through tissue Doppler imaging (dTDI) was recently proposed as a means to describe activity in both healthy individuals and intubated patients undergoing weaning from mechanical ventilation. Our primary aim investigate whether the excursion velocity measured with dTDI at end spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) different subjects successfully extubated versus those who passed but exhibited extubation failure within 48 h after...
Esophageal balloon calibration was proposed in acute respiratory failure patients to improve esophageal pressure assessment. In a clinical setting characterized by high variability of abdominal load and intrathoracic (i.e., pelvic robotic surgery), the authors hypothesized that could measurements. Accordingly, assessed impact compared conventional uncalibrated approach during surgery.In 30 adult patients, scheduled for elective surgery, calibrated end-expiratory end-inspiratory pressure,...
In patients intubated for hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (ARF) related to novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we retrospectively compared two weaning strategies, early extubation with immediate non-invasive ventilation (NIV) versus standard encompassing spontaneous breathing trial (SBT), respect IMV duration (primary endpoint), failures and reintubations, rate of tracheostomy, intensive care unit (ICU) length stay mortality (additional endpoints). All COVID-19 adult patients, ARF...
Lung ultrasound has greatly developed in the last decade, becoming increasingly important both for diagnosis and monitoring of acute respiratory failure; it can be used on a daily basis at bedside to improve clinical assessment critically ill. This review describes how lung assess patients with distress syndrome (ARDS), from initial management monitoring. Quantification aeration performed score; is reliable when compared computed tomography scan, easy learn, repeatable. It guide mechanical...
<b>Background:</b> lung ultrasound(LUS) score allows reliable quantification of loss aeration[1] and was applied to monitor aeration[2]. <b>Aims:</b> To determine if LUS early identifies responders non-invasive respiratory support. <b>Methods:</b> prospective observational multicenter study. Hypoxemic patients(PaO2/FiO2<300) with clinical indication support (high-flow nasal cannula-HFNC, continuous positive airways pressure-CPAP). Non-responders required intubation within 48h....
