Bedside quantification of dead-space fraction using routine clinical data in patients with acute lung injury: secondary analysis of two prospective trials
INTRODUCTION Dead-space fraction (Vd/Vt) has been shown to be a powerful predictor of mortality in acute lung injury (ALI) patients. The measurement of Vd/Vt is based on the analysis of expired CO2 which is not a part of standard practice thus limiting widespread clinical application of this method. The objective of this study was to determine prognostic value of Vd/Vt estimated from routinely ...
متن کاملAlveolar Dead Space Fraction Discriminates Mortality in Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome.
OBJECTIVES Physiologic dead space is associated with mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome, but its measurement is cumbersome. Alveolar dead space fraction relies on the difference between arterial and end-tidal carbon dioxide (alveolar dead space fraction = (PaCO2 - PetCO2) / PaCO2). We aimed to assess the relationship between alveolar dead space fraction and mortality in a cohort o...
متن کاملA Novel Suture Button Construct for Acute Ankle Syndesmotic Injuries; A Prospective Clinical and Radiological Analysis.
Background: The importance of the syndesmosis in ankle stability is well recognized. Numerous means of fixation have been described for syndesmotic injuries including the suture button technique. Significant cost limits the use the commercially available options. We, therefore, designed a cheap and readily available alternative construct. We aim to assess the results of using a novel suture-...
متن کاملVolumetric capnography in acute respiratory distress syndrome: is the era of day-to-day monitoring finally here?
Acute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) affect 4.5–7.1% of the patients admitted to the intensive care unit with acute respiratory failure.1,2 In our population, we found that ARDS affects 15.3 per 100,000 persons per year.3 Although the reported mortality of patients with ALI and ARDS has improved, it remains high among the causes of death in the intensive ca...
متن کاملEstimation of dead space fraction can be simplified in the acute respiratory distress syndrome
Acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome are characterized by a non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema responsible for a significant impairment of gas exchange. The pulmonary dead space increase, which is due primarily to an alteration in pulmonary blood flow distribution, is largely responsible for carbon dioxide retention. Previous studies, computing the pulmonary dead space by meas...
