Crosstalk between lung and extrapulmonary organs in sepsis-related acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome

Organ Crosstalk in Sepsis-Related ALI/ARDS: New Insights into Lung–System Interactions Abstract: Sepsis-related ALI/ARDS remains highly lethal (>30% mortality), and most research has historically focused only on the lung. This review highlights organ crosstalk as a central mechanism in sepsis pathophysiology. The authors differentiate pulmonary sepsis-associated ALI/ARDS (PSA) from extrapulmonary sepsis-associated ALI/ARDS (ESA), outline systemic inflammation, […]

Mechanical Ventilation

Mechanical ventilation energy analysis: Recruitment focuses injurious power in the ventilated lung

Abstract The progression of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) from its onset due to disease or trauma to either recovery or death is poorly understood. Currently, there are no generally accepted treatments aside from supportive care using mechanical ventilation. However, this can lead to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), which contributes to a 30 to 40%
