Guideline-based management of acute respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is defined by acute and progressive hypoxemia caused by various cardiorespiratory or systemic diseases in previously...
-
Prognosis of critically ill immunocompromised patients with virus-detected acute respiratory failure
BackgroundAcute respiratory failure (ARF) is the leading cause of ICU admission. Viruses are increasingly recognized as a cause of pneumonia in...

Lung ultrasound score predicts outcomes in patients with acute respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19 treated with non-invasive respiratory support: a prospective cohort study
BackgroundLung ultrasound has demonstrated its usefulness in several respiratory diseases management. One derived score, the Lung Ultrasound (LUS)...

Comparison of chest radiograph and lung ultrasound in children with acute respiratory failure
PurposeChest x-ray (CXR) is the standard imaging used to evaluate children in acute respiratory distress and failure. Our objective was to compare...

ROX index performance to predict high-flow nasal oxygen outcome in Covid-19 related hypoxemic acute respiratory failure
BackgroundGiven the pathophysiology of hypoxemia in patients with Covid-19 acute respiratory failure (ARF), it seemed necessary to evaluate whether...

Stratifying Severity of Acute Respiratory Failure Severity in Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease
Hypoxemia is used to stratify severity in acute respiratory failure (ARF) but is less useful in cyanotic congenital heart disease (CCHD) due to an...

Nonlinear relationship between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality in ICU acute respiratory failure patients: a multicenter retrospective cohort study
BackgroundLimited evidence exists regarding the link between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality in acute respiratory failure (ARF)...
-
Inflammatory and coagulant responses after acute respiratory failure in children of different body habitus
BackgroundEndothelial injury and systemic inflammation are key determinants of acute respiratory failure (ARF) outcome. We sought to determine if...

Implications of sedation during the use of noninvasive ventilation in children with acute respiratory failure (SEDANIV Study)
BackgroundThe objective of this study was to analyze the effects of sedation administration on clinical parameters, comfort status, intubation...

Characteristics and outcomes of patients with acute myeloid leukemia admitted to intensive care unit with acute respiratory failure: a post-hoc analysis of a prospective multicenter study
BackgroundAcute respiratory failure (ARF) is the leading cause of intensive care unit (ICU) admission in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)...
-
NIV failure in respiratory failure: an analysis
ObjectiveNoninvasive ventilation (NIV) has become an increasingly accepted mode of treatment for acute respiratory failure. Concept of NIV has...
-
A Data-Driven Analysis of Ward Capacity Strain Metrics That Predict Clinical Outcomes Among Survivors of Acute Respiratory Failure
Supply–demand mismatch of ward resources (“ward capacity strain”) alters care and outcomes. Narrow strain definitions and heterogeneous populations...

The association between nutritional risk index and ICU outcomes across hematologic malignancy patients with acute respiratory failure
Patients with hematological malignancies (HM) are at risk of acute respiratory failure (ARF). Malnutrition, a common association with HM, has the...
-
Dyspnea is severe and associated with a higher intubation rate in de novo acute hypoxemic respiratory failure
BackgroundDyspnea is a key symptom of de novo acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. This study explores dyspnea and its association with intubation...
-
Development of a prognostic nomogram for sepsis associated-acute respiratory failure patients on 30-day mortality in intensive care units: a retrospective cohort study
BackgroundAcute respiratory failure is a type of sepsis complicated by severe organ failure. We have developed a new nomogram for predicting the...

Use of high flow nasal cannula in patients with acute respiratory failure in general wards under intensivists supervision: a single center observational study
BackgroundFew data exist on high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) use in patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) admitted to general wards.

Management strategy for hematological malignancy patients with acute respiratory failure
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is still the major cause of intensive care unit (ICU) admission for hematological malignancy (HM) patients although...

Delayed intubation associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with COVID-19 respiratory failure who fail heated and humified high flow nasal canula
BackgroundAdvanced respiratory support modalities such as non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NiPPV) and heated and humidified high flow...

Comparison of ROX index (SpO2/FIO2 ratio/respiratory rate) with a modified dynamic index incorporating PaO2/FIO2 ratio and heart rate to predict high flow nasal cannula outcomes among patients with acute respiratory failure: a single centre retrospective study
BackgroundHigh flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is increasingly being used to support patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) and to avoid need for...
