Capnodynamic monitoring of lung volume and pulmonary blood flow during alveolar recruitment: a prospective observational study in postoperative cardiac patients Open
Purpose Alveolar recruitment manoeuvres may mitigate ventilation and perfusion mismatch after cardiac surgery. Monitoring the efficacy of recruitment manoeuvres should provide concurrent information on pulmonary and cardiac changes. Method…
Capnodynamic monitoring of lung volume and blood flow in response to increased positive end-expiratory pressure in moderate to severe COVID-19 pneumonia: an observational study Open
Background. The optimal level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during mechanical ventilation for COVID-19 pneumonia remains debated and should ideally be guided by responses in both lung volume and perfusion. Capnodynamic monitor…
Rapid Translation of COVID-19 Preprint Data into Critical Care Practice Open
To the Editor:\nThe global coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has seen a significant increase in the use of preprint services to enable the widespread dissemination of research findings (1). However, whether such facilities influence …
Post-operative renal failure management in mechanical circulatory support patients Open
Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs commonly in patients requiring mechanical circulatory support (MCS) after cardiothoracic surgery. The prognostic implications of AKI in this patient group relate closely to the pathophysiology and risk fact…
Comparison of echocardiographic and invasive measures of volaemia and cardiac performance in critically ill patients Open
Echocardiographic measurements are used in critical care to evaluate volume status and cardiac performance. Mean systemic filling pressure and global heart efficiency measures intravascular volume and global heart function. This prospectiv…
