Abstract Pan and colleagues report the findings of a large, blinded, placebo-controlled single-center randomized clinical trial of sivelestat for the prevention of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) among patients undergoing..
Read MoreAbstract Objective: To evaluate whether systemic anticoagulation therapy affects the survival of adult patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Design: Multicenter retrospective study...
Read MoreAnticoagulation management during veno-venous ECMO support because of ARDS: Single-center experience
Abstract Background Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) show a high mortality rate of up to 60 %. In such cases, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support is often required,..
Read MoreAbstract COVID-19 can be associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which increases the likelihood of morbidity and mortality. Ventilator-induced lung injury (VLI) is a known complication of mechanical ventilation (MV) and..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose: Among acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients in intensive care units, the efficacy of lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) use is uncertain taking into account the most recent randomized..
Read MoreAbstract Background Several aquatic organisms such as loaches have evolved unique intestinal breathing mechanisms to survive under extensive hypoxia. To date, it is highly controversial whether such capability can be..
Read MoreAbstract A substantial part of COVID-19-patients suffers from multi-organ failure (MOF). We report on an 80-year old patient with pulmonary, renal, circulatory, and hepatic failure. We decided against the use..
Read MoreProne positioning (PP) has shown benefits in patients with refractory hypoxemia from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).1 The EOLIA trial demonstrated extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be used for patients with..
Read MoreAbstract Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a potential treatment option in critically ill COVID-19 patients suffering from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) if mechanical ventilation (MV) is insufficient;..
Read MoreAbstract This case reports on a 55-year-old male patient who was admitted to the hospital with complaints of fever, cough, vomiting, and loss of taste from 7-8 days before admission...
Read MoreAbstract Background (ARDS) is a type of syndrome characterised by severe respiratory distress and stubborn . Patients with ARDS have a prolonged hospital stay and high mortality rate. Over long-term follow-up, ARDS..
Read MoreAbstract The primary focus of research into the pathophysiology of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has been on the interaction between the lung, underlying causes of ARDS, and the..
Read MoreAbstract Patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are prone to pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) and right ventricular pressure overload due to severe bilateral infiltrates, high ventilation pressures, persistent hypoxemia, pulmonary..
Read MoreThis case reports on a 7-month-old male pediatric patient (known pre-existing conditions: trisomy 21 (also known as Downs syndrome), aortic isthmus stenosis, atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) Rastelli type C), who..
Read MoreThis case reports on a 79-year-old female patient who presented to the hospital for elective surgery due to severe mitral valve and tricuspid valve insufficiency.
