Bedside assessment of lung volume in clinical practice is crucial to adapt ventilation strategy. We compared bedside measures of lung volume by helium multiple-breath washout technique (EELVMBW,He) and effective lung volume based on capnodynamics (ELV) to those assessed from spiral chest CT scans (EELVCT) under different PEEP levels in control and surfactant-depleted lungs.

Fluid management in the perioperative period has been extensively studied but, despite that, “the right amount” still remains uncertain. The purpose of this paper is to summarize the state of the art of intraoperative fluid approach today. Leggi l’articolo completo…

Veronica Hackethal, MDAugust 06, 2014 Aspirin has long been known to have cancer prevention effects, but it has not been widely used for this because of concerns about potential harm. Experts have now declared, for the first time, that the benefits of taking aspirin to prevent some types of cancer outweigh the harms. This conclusion […]

Both manual physical therapy (MPT) and corticosteroid injections (CSI) significantly improve symptoms in patients with shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS), but physical therapy may be less costly to the healthcare system, according to a new study.
