Respiratory-related heart rate variability in progressive experimental heart failure.
Heart failure is associated with autonomic imbalance, and this can be evaluated by a spectral analysis of heart rate variability. However, the time course of low-frequency (LF) and high-frequency (HF) heart rate variability changes, and their functional correlates during progression of the disease are not exactly known. Progressive heart failure was induced in 16 beagle dogs over a 7-wk period ...
متن کاملPapilloedema and respiratory failure.
Papilloedema is a rare but well recognised complication of respiratory failure that was first described in 1933 in a patient with pulmonary emphysema.' Several cases have been reported of patients with respiratory failure and papilloedema who developed optic atrophy and blindness.23 We report on a patient who presented with loss of vision and papilloedema secondary to the obesity hypoventilatio...
متن کاملRenal failure and postoperative respiratory failure: recurarization?
The occurrence of acute postoperative respiratory failure in three patients with renal failure is presented. The most likely cause was the return of muscle paralysis after the apparent antagonism of tubocurarine by neostigmine (recurarization). In addition to reducing the dose of tubocurarine, the authors recommend that pyridostigmine be used as an antagonist instead of neostigmine because the ...
متن کامل[respiratory Failure].
Though the equation appears complex, it simply means that the oxygen tension in the alveoli is predominantly determined by the concentration of inspired oxygen, the barometric pressure and the carbon dioxide tension in the alveoli. Because carbon dioxide is very freely diffusible across the alveolar membrane, often arterial and alveolar carbon dioxide tension will be equal. That is why PaCO2 wh...
متن کاملRespiratory failure.
Definitions Acute respiratory failure describes any impairment in oxygenation or ventilation in which the arterial oxygen tension falls below 60 mm Hg (acute hypoxemia), the carbon dioxide tension rises above 50 mm Hg (acute hypercarbia, hypercapnia) and the pH drops below 7.35, or both. For patients who have underlying chronic respiratory failure, acute hypercarbia can be diagnosed by an incre...
