Mecânica respiratória de pacientes com obesidade mórbida

J. bras. pneumol; 45 (5), 2019
RESUMO Objetivo avaliar os diferentes componentes da resistência do sistema respiratório e a força muscular respiratória, bem como investigar a ocorrência de limitação de fluxo expiratório (LFE) de pacientes obesos mórbidos (OM) na posição sentada. Métodos a amostra foi composta de OM (IMC ...

Effects of manual chest compression on expiratory flow bias during the positive end-expiratory pressure-zero end-expiratory pressure maneuver in patients on mechanical ventilation

J. bras. pneumol; 45 (3), 2019
ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate the effects of manual chest compression (MCC) on the expiratory flow bias during the positive end-expiratory pressure-zero end-expiratory pressure (PEEP-ZEEP) airway clearance maneuver applied in patients on mechanical ventilation. The flow bias, which influences pulmo...

Vascular and ventilatory mechanical responses in three different stages of pulmonary development in the rabbit model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia

Acta cir. bras; 33 (10), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the vascular ventilatory response in different stages of lung development and to compare them to the neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) in a rabbit model. Methods: New Zealand rabbits were divided into 8 groups (n=5): E25, E27, E30, and CDH. All groups wer...

Impulse oscillometry and obesity in children

J. pediatr. (Rio J.); 94 (4), 2018
Abstract Objective: To compare impulse oscillometry system parameters of normal-weight children with overweight and obese children. Method: All participants were submitted to the evaluation of lung function (spirometry and impulse oscillometry) following the American Thoracic Society standards. The eva...

Associação da mecânica respiratória com a oxigenação e duração da ventilação mecânica no pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca

Fundamentos: A ventilação mecânica (VM) e a circulação extracorpórea (CEC) estão associadas a um declínio da mecânica pulmonar que pode impactar as trocas gasosas. Objetivo: Avaliar o impacto da mecânica pulmonar sobre a duração da VM e trocas gasosas no pós-operatório de cirurgia cardía...

Influencia de la caja torácica en el monitoreo de la mecánica respiratoria en síndrome de distrés respiratorio agudo

RESUMEN La mecánica del sistema respiratorio depende de las características del pulmón, la caja torácica y su interacción. En pacientes con síndrome de distrés respiratorio agudo bajo ventilación mecánica el monitoreo de la presión meseta en la vía aérea es fundamental debido a su valor pronÃ...

Thoracoabdominal mobility evaluation by photogrammetry in newborns after expiratory flow increase technique

Fisioter. Mov. (Online); 30 (4), 2017
Abstract Introduction: Expiratory flow increase is a maneuver of respiratory physical therapy that promotes flow direction to the upper airways however, when applied in newborns, it may result in changes of thoracoabdominal mobility. Objective: To evaluate the thoracoabdominal mobility by photogramme...

Impact of sports activities on respiratory function and mechanics in children

Fisioter. Mov. (Online); 30 (3), 2017
Abstract Introduction: Being physically active in childhood may improve the quality of life in adulthood. So, it is extremely important to evaluate the respiratory function and mechanics of children who participate in sports activities, in order to determine the impact of physical activity on airway res...
