Ventilatory pattern variability as a biometric for severity of acute lung injury in rats.
Respir Physiol Neurobiol
July 2019
We hypothesize that ventilatory pattern variability (VPV) varies with the magnitude of acute lung injury (ALI). In adult male rats, we instilled a low- or high- dose of bleomycin or saline (PBS) intratracheally. While representative samples of pulmonary tissue indicated graded lung injury, coefficient of variation (CV) of TTOT did not differ among the 3 groups.

- Managing complex airway diseases in interventional pulmonology can be tricky, especially when commercial airway stents fail due to poor fit and patient-specific complications.
- Two patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis, who didn’t respond to standard treatments, received personalized silicone stents created from CT scans and 3D printing technology.
- Over a year, these custom stents led to improved durability, shorter procedure times, and better symptom relief compared to their prior stenting experiences.
