Intubation, ICU and trauma. Patients with COVID-19 who require intubation and ventilation have witnessed a number of stressful events in the ICU, such as emergency resuscitation procedures and deaths.
Cardiac arrest during the interval between induction of anesthesia and 2 minutes after tracheal intubation occurred in 1 of 645 patients (0.2%) in the noninvasive-ventilation group and in 7 of 656 ...
Intubated patients are also at least mildly sedated for part or all of their time on mechanical ventilation. Beyond the discomfort of having a tube shoved down your throat, it can feel like you ...
Fewer ICU/ED patients experienced hypoxemia during intubation with receipt of preoxygenation with noninvasive ventilation vs. an oxygen mask, according to research published in the New England ...
Patients who underwent preoxygenation with noninvasive ventilation had a median of 21 ventilator-free days and 16 ICU-free days compared with 17 days and 14 days, respectively, for the oxygen-mask ...
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a preventable secondary consequence of intubation and mechanical ventilation. VAP is pneumonia that develops in an intubated patient after 48 hours or more ...

We examined patient-ventilator interaction by comparing EAdi to ventilator pressure during ... SPO 2, TCO 2, and heart rate between conventional ventilation, NAVA-intubated and NAVA-extubated ...
The study highlights that while a majority of patients aged 65 and older who survived more than three days after intubation were successfully weaned from the ventilator, those with higher care ...
