The functional independence measure (FIM) is an outcome of the severity physical and cognitive disability for inpatient rehabilitation setting. changes during treatment, making in FIM scale indicator treatment benefits its results. So far there no evidence profile patients followed by physiotherapists their critically ill department stay.
A recent meta-analysis showed that weaning with SmartCare™ (Dräger, Lübeck, Germany) significantly decreased time in critically ill patients. However, its utility compared respiratory physiotherapist-protocolized is still a matter of debate. We hypothesized would be as effective physiotherapy-driven patients.Adult patients mechanically ventilated for more than 24 hours the adult intensive care unit Albert Einstein Hospital, São Paulo, Brazil, were randomly assigned to weaned either by...
Reduction of automatic pressure support based on a target respiratory frequency or mandatory rate ventilation (MRV) is available in the Taema-Horus ventilator for weaning process intensive care unit (ICU) setting. We hypothesised that MRV as effective manual post-operative ICU patients.There were 106 patients selected period prospective, randomised, controlled protocol. When arrived at after surgery, they randomly assigned to either: traditional weaning, consisting reduction every 30...
In 2009, an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by influenza A H1N1 virus occurred worldwide. Some patients required Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission. The use non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in these is controversial, as the aerosol dispersion may contaminate environment and health-care co-workers.Describe profile, mortality rate, benefit using NIV with confirmed diagnosis AH1N1 who were admitted ICU during year 2009.A total 1, 401 cases our hospital real-time RT-PCR 20 to ICU....
A number of complications exist with invasive mechanical ventilation and the use withdrawal from prolonged ventilator support. The protocols that enable systematic identification patients eligible for an interruption in can significantly reduce complications. This study describes application a weaning protocol its results.Patients who required more than 24 hours were included assessed daily to identify individuals ready begin process.We studied 252 median time 3.7 days (interquartile range 1...
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the vital capacity after two chest therapy techniques in patients undergoing abdominal surgical. Methods A prospective randomized study carried out with admitted to Intensive Care Unit surgery. We checked capacity, muscular strength using Medical Research Council scale, and functionality Functional Independence Measure first time patient was breathing spontaneously (D1), also upon discharge from (Ddis). Between D1 Ddis, respiratory according group. Results...
ObjectivesTo characterize an experimental model of pulmonary embolism by studying hemodynamics, lung mechanics and histopathologic derangements caused microembolism in pigs.To identify alterations after that may be similar to those evidenced inflammatory conditions.Materials methods Ten Large White pigs (weight 35-42 kg) were instrumented with arterial catheters, was induced five injection polystyrene microspheres (diameter ~300 µM), order obtain a mean pressure twice the baseline value.Five...

Introduction Vascular calcifi cation is a regulated process, which associates with coronary artery disease (CAD) and occurs through an increase in transcription factor expression such as RUNX2, MSX2 alkaline phosphatase (ALP), then inducing calcium deposition.Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) potent osteochondrogenic mediator, expressed CAD.Endothelin-1 (ET1) leptin have role regulating infl ammation CAD.We hypothesized that BMP2, or both ROS formation C57BL/6 vascular smooth muscle cells...
Introduction There is considerable uncertainty about the reproducibility of various instruments used to measure dyspnea, their ability reflect changes in symptoms, whether they accurately patient's experience and if its evolution similar between acute heart failure syndrome patients nonacute patients.URGENT was a prospective multicenter trial designed address these issues.Methods Patients were interviewed within 1 hour first physician evaluation, emergency department or care setting, with...

Introduction: Failure to accurately estimate energy requirements may result in an impaired recovery.Overfeeding has been associated with increased carbon dioxide production, respiratory failure, hyperglycemia and fat deposits the liver, while underfeeding can lead malnutrition, muscle weakness immunity.Objective: This study aimed determine metabolic profile of infant preschool children submitted mechanical ventilation ICU.Methods: A prospective was carried out a pediatric ICU Rio de Janeiro...
