Previous animal studies have identified a role for activation of innate immunity in the pathogenesis of ventilator-associated lung injury. These studies have used large tidal volume ventilation to study the effect of alveolar overdistension on induction of inflammatory pathways. We hypothesized an alternative mechanism for the pathogenesis of lung injury in which moderate tidal volume ventilati...
A novel algorithm is presented that links local structural variables (regional ventilation and deforming central airways) to global function (total lung volume) in the lung over three imaged lung volumes, to derive a breathing lung model for computational fluid dynamics simulation. The algorithm constitutes the core of an integrative, image-based computational framework for subject-specific sim...
In preterm infants, the need for intubation and mechanical ventilation is associated with ventilator-induced lung injuries and subsequent bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The aim of the present review was to improve the understanding of the mechanisms of injury that involve cytokine-mediated inflammation to contribute to the development of new preventive strategies. Relevant articles were retrieved ...
Introduction In intubated acute respiratory failure patients, inhomogeneity of ventilation-perfusion matching (i.e., presence of over-ventilated under-perfused lung regions) might determine extreme pH shifts and increase the risk of developing ventilator-induced injury. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) redistributes tidal ventilation towards more perfused dependent lung regions, potentia...
We used quantitative Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) to study the effect of the upright posture on regional lung blood flow and ventilation. Nine (upright) plus seven (prone and supine) healthy volunteers were studied awake, breathing spontaneously. Regional blood flow and ventilation were marked in sitting upright, supine and prone postures using (113m)In-labeled macroaggreg...
The accuracy of the steady-state measurement of ventilation by means of a short-lived insoluble inert gas tracer rests with the validity of the steady-state flow equation. This has previously been applied to the qualitative assessment of regional ventilation using krypton-81m, but may potentially be used for the calculation of regional alveolar ventilation per unit alveolar gas volume--(VA/VA)c...
Tidal volume reduction during mechanical ventilation reduces mortality in patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome. To determine the mechanisms underlying the protective effect of low tidal volume ventilation, we studied the time course and reversibility of ventilator-induced changes in permeability and distal air space edema fluid clearance in a rat model of ...
Mechanical ventilation is an important life support treatment of critically ill patients, and air pressure dynamics of human lung affect ventilation treatment effects. In this paper, in order to obtain the influences of seven key parameters of mechanical ventilation system on the pressure dynamics of human lung, firstly, mechanical ventilation system was considered as a pure pneumatic system, a...
Although mechanical ventilation is a life-saving strategy in critically ill patients and an indispensable tool in patients under general anesthesia for surgery, it also acts as a double-edged sword. Indeed, ventilation is increasingly recognized as a potentially dangerous intrusion that has the potential to harm lungs, in a condition known as 'ventilator-induced lung injury' (VILI). So-called '...
OBJECTIVES The recognition that alveolar overdistension rather than peak inspiratory airway pressure is the primary determinant of lung injury has shifted our understanding of the pathogenesis of ventilator-induced side effects. In this review, contemporary ventilatory methods, supportive treatments, and future developments relevant to pediatric critical care are reviewed. DATA SYNTHESIS A st...
