Therapies and Procedures

1. Positive-Pressure Respiration (PEEP)
05/01/2002 - "OBJECTIVE: To compare the ease and efficacy of two commonly used methods for choosing optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: a static pressure-volume curve to determine the lower inflection point (P(flex)) and the "best PEEP" (PEEP(best)) as determined by the maximal compliance curve"
04/01/2003 - "A recently published randomized, controlled trial in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients (n = 148) comparing HFOV with a pressure-control ventilation strategy (Pao(2)/Fio(2) ratio of <or=200 mm Hg on positive end-expiratory pressure of >10 cm H(2)O) demonstrated early (<16 hrs) improvement in Pao(2)/Fio(2) (p =.008) in the HFOV group but no significant difference in oxygenation index between the two groups during the initial 72 hrs of treatment"
10/01/1996 - "We hypothesized that using a high-frequency pressure-control mode of ventilation with high PEEP in children with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) would be associated with improved survival"
08/01/1986 - "Early experiments demonstrated a diminution of cardiac output with the application of positive end-expiratory pressure, and it was not favored as a therapeutic modality until the 1960s, when it was found to be effective in the treatment of adult respiratory distress syndrome"
09/01/1979 - "Early application of an adjusted level of positive end-expiratory pressure using CPAP in patients with adequate levels of fluid is an effective and safe method of treating selected groups of patients in the early stages of the adult respiratory distress syndrome."

2. Liquid Ventilation
3. Artificial Respiration (Mechanical Ventilation)
01/01/2008 - "CONCLUSIONS: The integration of this device to near static mechanical ventilation of the residual native lung(s) is feasible and highly effective in patients with severe and unresponsive acute respiratory distress syndrome after pulmonary resection."
08/01/2005 - "INTRODUCTION: To compare the safety and efficacy of high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) with conventional mechanical ventilation (CV) for early intervention in adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a multi-centre randomized trial in four intensive care units was conducted"
04/01/2006 - "CONCLUSIONS: In patients with acute lung injury, a diet enriched with EPA + GLA may be beneficial for gas exchange, respiratory dynamics, and requirements for mechanical ventilation."
08/01/1999 - "OBJECTIVE: To assess the safety and potential efficacy of a mechanical ventilation strategy designed to reduce stretch-induced lung injury in acute respiratory distress syndrome"
07/01/1994 - "OBJECTIVE: The aims of the present study were two-fold: first, to confirm the effect of tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) throughout the respiratory cycle on alveolar ventilation at various catheter flows and constant total inspired VT as an adjunct to conventional volume cycled mechanical ventilation in patients with acute lung injury; second, to test the efficacy of TGI in the reduction of toal VT, peak and mean airway pressure while maintaining PaCO2 in its baseline value"
