Bastos-Netto,Cristiane; Reboredo,Maycon Moura; Vieira,Rodrigo Souza; Fonseca,Lídia Maria Carneiro da; Carvalho,Erich Vidal; Holanda,Marcelo AlcantaraABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the association that protective mechanical ventilation (MV), based on VT and maximum distending pressure (MDP), has with mortality in patients at risk for ARDS. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study conducted in an ICU and including 116 patients on MV who had at least one risk factor for the development of ARDS.

Patient-ventilator asynchrony
Holanda,Marcelo Alcantara; Vasconcelos,Renata dos Santos; Ferreira,Juliana Carvalho; Pinheiro,Bruno ValleABSTRACT Patient-v entilator asynchrony (PVA) is a mismatch between the patient, regarding time, flow, volume, or pressure demands of the patient respiratory system, and the ventilator, which supplies such demands, during mechanical ventilation (MV). It is a common phenomenon, with incidence rates ranging from 10% to 85%. PVA might be due to factors related to the patient, to the ventilator, or both. The most c...
Pre-treatment with dexamethasone attenuates experimental ventilator-induced lun...
Reis,Fernando Fonseca dos; Reboredo,Maycon de Moura; Lucinda,Leda Marília Fonseca; Bianchi,Aydra Mendes Almeida; Rabelo,Maria Aparecida EstevesABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the effects that administering dexamethasone before the induction of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) has on the temporal evolution of that injury. Methods: Wistar rats were allocated to one of three groups: pre-VILI administration of dexamethasone (dexamethasone group); pre-VILI administration of saline (control group); or ventilation only (sham group). The VILI was induced...
