Ventilation Practices in Acute Brain Injured Patients and Association with Outcomes: The Ventibrain Multicenter Observational Study

Academic Report on “Ventilation Practices in Acute Brain Injured Patients and Association with Outcomes: The Ventibrain Multicenter Observational Study” Academic Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a fundamental component of the intensive care unit (ICU) management of acute brain injury (ABI) patients. However, strong evidence on the best ven...

Super-relaxed Myosins Contribute to Respiratory Muscle Hibernation in Mechanically Ventilated Patients

The Impact of Super-Relaxed Myosin on Diaphragm Dysfunction in Ventilated Patients Background Weak diaphragm contraction is a common problem in patients receiving mechanical ventilation in intensive care units (ICUs). This leads to difficulties in weaning patients off ventilators, increases mortality rates, and imposes a significant economic burden...
