Read MoreVentilators managed by a computerized decision support (CDS) tool shortened the time children with respiratory failure spent on mechanical ventilation.
Read MorePatients from low-income neighborhoods, those with Medicaid, and Black patients were less likely to receive ECMO than equally ill peers.
Read MoreLanguage barriers between ICU providers and Spanish-speaking patients led to inaccurate delirium screening results using standard tools.
Read MoreMore than half of ICU survivors may experience post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), which involves new or worsening physical, psychological, or cognitive impairments after a critical illness.
Read MoreA new study highlights the value of embedding a professional therapist within the healthcare team, rather than directing staff to seek outside support.
Read MoreMicroscopic tissue damage in the alveoli during mechanical ventilation can lead to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI).
Read MoreIn this edition of our “Industry Analysis” series, RT magazine speaks with manufacturers of inhaled nitric oxide delivery systems about the latest market innovations in the iNO industry.
Read MoreHome respiratory therapists play a key role in driving the success of patients on home mechanical ventilation.
Read MoreSuccess achieving a secure airway for difficult airway patients relies on the skills and knowledge of emergency medicine and critical care providers.
Read MoreZinc deficiency may raise the risk of infection by Acinetobacter baumannii, a leading cause of ventilator-associated pneumonia, according to new research.
Read MoreThis article will discuss the invasive and noninvasive therapy options available for NICU clinicians, including bCPAP, HFO, NIV and invasive ventilation—and the factors these clinicians must weigh when initializing therapy or when it becomes necessary to escalate respiratory support.
Read MoreInternal trauma to the lungs is not the only morbidity threat to critical care patients; these patients also face the potential of external injuries due to respiratory device-related pressure injury and pressure ulcers.
Read MoreRecent trials demonstrate higher first-pass intubation success rates with video laryngoscopy compared to direct laryngoscopy, prompting calls for widespread adoption.
Read MoreOngoing patient monitoring by respiratory therapists and critical care staff is key to survival and outcomes in the neonatal/pediatric intensive care unit.
Read MoreHamilton Medical has introduced a new NIV mask portfolio for noninvasive ventilation with a large range of interchangeable elbows for different NIV therapy options, according to a company notice.
Read MoreScientists are now able to directly compare the different kinds of injury that mechanical ventilation causes to cells in the lungs.
Read MoreRespiratory failure due to hypoxemia and/or hypercapnia calls for oxygen therapy, positive pressure support, and possibly ventilatory support. Care for these patients may escalate and require higher flow, FiO2, and more complex devices and intensive monitoring.
Read MoreA new model shows that combining antibiotics with enzymes improved the removal of tough biofilms in VAP, a finding that could lead to more effective treatments.
Read MoreA research team identifies microscopic clusters of damaged lung vesicles as the cause of massive loss of lung function.
Read MoreA machine learning model has been developed by researchers to determine personalized oxygenation targets for mechanically ventilated patients.
Read MoreThe IntelliPAP tool automatically adjusts PEEP levels during noninvasive ventilation in patients with respiratory insufficiency and OSA.
Read MoreVeterans who received care via the Post-acute Recovery Center (PARC) model after a serious illness experienced fewer deaths and more days outside of the hospital compared to those not enrolled in PARC, according to data presented at ATS 2024.
Read MoreFamilies caring for children with a tracheostomy and mechanical ventilation have inadequate access to home health care and face major financial burdens, according to research at ATS 2024.
