Repeated bedside echocardiography in children with respiratory failure
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to verify the benefits and limitations of repeated bedside echocardiographic examinations in children during mechanical ventilation. For the purposes of this study, we selected the data of over a time period from 2006 to 2010. METHODS A total of 235 children, average age 3.21 (SD 1.32) years were included into the study and divided into etiopathogenic grou...
متن کاملIntegrated Use of Bedside Lung Ultrasound and Echocardiography in Acute Respiratory Failure
BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that the complementary use of echocardiography could improve the diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasonography (LUS) in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). Nevertheless, the additional diagnostic value of echocardiographic data when coupled with LUS is still debated in this setting. Th e aim of the current study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy o...
متن کاملPredictive Factors of Respiratory Failure in Children with Guillain-Barre Syndrome
Introduction:Guillain-Barre Syndrome(GBS) is the most common cause of acute flaccid paralysis. Respiratory failure is the most serious short-term complication of GBS and invasive mechanical ventilation is required in 30% of patients.moreover,60% of those who are intubated develop major complications including pnemonia,sepsis,GI bleeding and pulmonary embolism. Thus respiratory failure predictio...
