  2. 1. Jet Ventilation for Airway Surgery : The Influence of Mode and Frequency on Ventilation Efficacy

    Author : Robert Sütterlin; Peter Frykholm; Anders Larsson; Ullman Johan; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; jet ventilation; airway obstruction; tracheal stenosis; HFJV; SHFJV; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care;

    Abstract : In surgery for airway obstruction, the anesthetist and the ear-nose-throat surgeon share the approach to the airway and jet ventilation (JV) is a mutually convenient ventilation technique for both parties. As a consequence of the open system jet ventilation is applied in, bedside measurements of lung volumes are cumbersome to perform and thus, there is a lack of studies comparing different modes of JV or investigating the influence of ventilator settings on lung volumes and gas exchange.

  4. 2. High frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) in clinical practice

    Author : Karolina Galmén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Surgery often requires general anaesthesia. During general anaesthesia, a ventilator is often used to secure the breathing of the patient. This is preferably done by mimicking normal ventilation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Gas Embolism in Laparoscopic Liver Surgery

    Author : Diddi Fors; Sten Rubertsson; Dag Arvidsson; Tor Inge Tønnessen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gas embolism; laparoscopic liver; CVP; PEEP; high frequency jet ventilation; cardiopulmonary physiology; carbon dioxide; Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care; Anestesiologi och intensivvård;

    Abstract : Laparoscopic liver surgery is complicated due to the structure of this organ with open sinusoids. A serious disadvantage is the risk of gas embolism (GE) due to CO2 pneumoperitoneum. CO2 can enter the vascular system through a wounded vein. A common opinion is that gas fluxes along a pressure gradient, e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Clinical and experimental studies on the diaphragm during physiological and pathophysio-logical conditions

    Author : Antonella Lo Mauro; Peter Frykholm; Andrea Aliverti; Anders Larsson; Stephen Edward Rees; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : diaphragm; animal model; phrenic nerve injury; pregnancy; lung transplan- tation; stereotactic body radiation therapy; anesthesia; Clinical Physiology; Klinisk fysiologi;

    Abstract : The diaphragm is the most important respiratory muscle. It separates the thorax from the abdomen and it is innervated by phrenic nerve. READ MORE

  7. 5. Liver metastases from colorectal cancer

    Author : Jennie Engstrand; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide. At diagnosis of CRC 20-25% of patients have metastatic disease. The liver is the most common metastatic site and liver metastases are detected in 25-30% of all patients. READ MORE
