Dynamic expiratory airway collapse and evaluation of collateral ventilation with Chartis.
We thank Gesierich et al for raising some important issues regarding the evaluation of collateral ventilation using the Chartis flow catheter. In our review, we only provided two classical examples of Chartis expiratory flow and inspiratory pressure results; one from a patient with no collateral ventilation and another from a patient with significant collateral ventilation. However, in clinical...
متن کاملValidation and pilot clinical study of a new bronchoscopic method to measure collateral ventilation before endobronchial lung volume reduction.
Endobronchial lung volume reduction (ELVR) may be helpful in a selected group of patients with advanced stages of emphysema. However, collateral ventilation (CV) from adjacent lobes through collateral channels often prevents target lobe atelectasis, which presumably mediates clinical responses after ELVR. With the goal of identifying patients who are more or less likely to benefit, we propose e...
متن کاملThe fissure: interlobar collateral ventilation and implications for endoscopic therapy in emphysema
In patients with severe emphysema, bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using one-way valves is a promising therapeutic option to improve lung function and quality of life. The goal of this treatment is to achieve a complete lobar atelectasis. In a significant proportion of patients, this atelectasis cannot be achieved due to interlobar collateral ventilation. This collateral ventilation is gene...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولAn Effective Method to Measure Evoked Potential
In the clinic. the traditional method to obtain Evoked Potential (EP) is the calculated average value of repeated measurements. This is infficient and inaccurate. An adaptive signal enhancement filter embedded with Least Mean Square (LMS) or Recursive Least Square (RLS) algorithm is an ffictive tool. It significantly decreases the number of repeat measurements needed to obtain satisfactory resu...
