Phrenic nerve activity and ventilation during lung oedema in rabbits.
Single fibre and "integrated" phrenic nerve activity was recorded in anaesthetized spontaneously breathing rabbits, during experimentally induced lung oedema. Tidal volume, blood pressure, end-tidal CO2, were monitored. In oedema the number of impulses in each volley slightly decreased while the discharge frequency was increased relatively to control values. The latter effect was due to the inc...
متن کاملNon-invasive ventilation in acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is the delivery of assisted mechanical ventilation to the lungs, without the use of an invasive endotracheal airway. NIV has revolutionised the management of patients with various forms of respiratory failure. It has decreased the need for invasive mechanical ventilation and its attendant complications. Cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPO) is a common medical emerge...
متن کاملUse of prone ventilation in neurogenic pulmonary oedema.
We present a case of neurogenic pulmonary oedema (NPO) due to subarachnoid haemorrhage that resulted in hypoxia refractory to conventional mechanical ventilation. Prone positioning was employed, resulting in rapid and sustained improvement in oxygenation. We discuss the pathogenesis of NPO and the mechanism of action of prone ventilation. Prone ventilation may be of value in the management of N...
متن کاملContinuous positive pressure ventilation and oxygen delivery.
The effects of intermittent and continuous positive pressure were studied in mechanically ventilated healthy dogs. No statistically significant changes were produced in oxygen tension, carbon dioxide tension, alveolar-arterial gradients or shunts by continuous positive pressure. It did produce a significant reduction in cardiac output and total oxygen delivery which was reversed by the reintrod...
متن کاملEarly continuous positive airway pressure in acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema.
Acute heart failure (AHF) syndromes are the most frequent cause of urgent consultation in patients with heart disease. In nearly 20% of cases the clinical presentation is acute pulmonary oedema. Although the diagnostic criteria of this syndrome have not been universally established, it is frequently defined by the sudden onset of severe dyspnoea and the presence of typical signs on physical exa...
