		The ventricular wall was subdivided into four zones, evaluated planimetrically and the beads were counted for calculation of microsphere density.
		Perfusion of groups of hearts, paced at 5 Hz, with Tyrode's solution at pressures of 30, 50, 80 or 120 cmH2O for 30 min revealed an increase of left ventricular pressure amplitude, coronary flow, myocardial oxygen consumption and flow redistribution towards the endocardium of the left ventricular wall with increasing perfusion pressure.
		These results indicate that transmural left ventricular flow redistribution in response to hypoperfusion in the isolated rat heart is similar to that in hearts of much larger species.

		The audible/visual alarm activates and the exhalation valve and the internal vent valve are opened.
		When AO4 occurs, gas flow to the patient is stopped, the audible/visual alarm activates and the internal vent valve opens dropping the patient airway pressure to ambient.
		The AO5 message activates the audible/visual alarm and both the exhalation valve and the internal vent valve opens the patient breathing circuit to ambient.

		En 1990, Hickling describe 50 pacientes con SDRA a quienes ventiló limitando las presiones de vía aérea a 30 cmH2O y logrando, en promedio, volúmenes corrientes cercanos a 5 ml/Kg y una elevación en la PaCO2 a 62 torr, ambos hechos revolucionarios para entonces.
		En general, estos pacientes requieren PEEP superiores a 10 cmH2O y la Pm tiende a sobrepasar los 25 cmH2O con Vt de 10 ml/Kg o mayores.
		Básicamente, desde un PEEP mínimos de 5 cmH2O y una FiO2 de 0,3 se va modificando en forma alterna uno de los parámetros de modo de mantener la PaO2 mayor a 70 mmHg o la SatO2 sobre 90%.

	Distensibility of the Pulmonary Autograft at the Aortic Position (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The grafts pressurized with 100 cmH2O showed 125 ± 6 and 113 ± 5 % enlarged dimensions compared to the baseline (20 cmH2O) data at the STJ and BR, respectively, with remarkable insufficiency, where the regurgitating fluid volume was considered as 100%.
		When the STJ was plicated to prevent over distension with less dilated BR (106%), valve insufficiency at 100 cmH2O was decreased to 7% regurgitating fluid volume.
		In case of BR plicated with less dilated STJ (112 % at 100 cmH2O), the regurgitation fluid volume at 100 cmH2O was 11% of that without plications.

		In autoregulatory range nitrite outflow varied from 1.80 +/- 0.22 nmol/min/g wt at 50 cmH2O to 2.21 +/- 0.25 nmol/min/g wt at 90 cmH2O and was strictly parallel with the CPP-CF (coronary perfusion pressure/coronary flow) curve.
		Nifedipine and diltiazem induced statistically significant increases of nitrite outflow in coronary venous effluent, strictly parallel with the CPP-CF curve, from 58% at 120 cmH2O to 190% at 40 cmH2O and from 74% at 120 cmH2O to 166% at 40 cmH2O, respectively.
		On the contrary, amlodipine induced significant reduction of nitrite outflow which was stronger at the lower value of CPP (44-46% at 40-80 cmH2O), compared to the higher value of CPP (32-37% at 100-120 cmH2O).

	Drowning and near-drowning: a challenge for the anesthesiologist
		The classic paper on ARF by Ashbaugh and colleagues describes the consequences of closed lung units: Hypoxaemia; intrapulmonary shunt (assuming that hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction is inhibited) and atelectasis.
		They found that once alveoli are collapsed, high pressures were needed for mechanical ventilation, and the supplied gas was mainly distributed to healthy alveoli.
		They showed that very high inspiratory pressures (up to 160 cmH2O) were initially required to deliver a tidal volume of 1000 ml.

	Non-woven, disposable theatre gowns for 'high-risk' surgery.
		The ability to resist fluid penetration was measured in body fabric and forearm seams of standard and reinforced non-woven disposable theatre gowns.
		Six standard use, non-woven gowns showed water strike-through in the body area at pressures ranging between 12.1 +/- 0.8 cmH2O and 23.2 +/- 2.2 cmH2O (means +/- 95% confidence interval).
		Six of seven high-protection gowns proved fluid resistant at a pressure in excess of 50 cm in the reinforced body zone but four reinforced gowns leaked at stitched arm seams at a pressure of less than 10 cmH2O despite an inner impermeable layer of fabric covering the forearm.

		We compared the transport of three proteins with different hydrodynamic radii with ultrastructural changes in lungs of intact mice ventilated at peak inflation pressures (PIP) of 15, 35, 45, and 55 cmH2O for 2 h and PIP of 55 cmH2O for 0.5 and 1 h.
		After 2 h of ventilation, significant increases were observed in plasma Clara cell secretory protein (1.9 nm radius) at 35 cmH2O PIP and in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid albumin (3.6 nm radius) at 45 cmH2O PIP and IgG (5.6 nm radius) at 55 cmH2O PIP.
		Separation of endothelium or epithelium to form blebs was apparent only in small vessels (15-30 µm diameter) at 45 cmH2O PIP and after 0.5 h at 55 cmH2O PIP but became extensive after 2 h of ventilation at 55 cmH2O PIP.

		To estimate the functional diameter of alveolar septal microvessels in zone 1, we perfused isolated rat lungs with fluorescent latex particles of specific diameters (0.24, 0.49, 1.05, or 4.0 microns) at pulmonary artery pressures (Ppulmart) that were either 5 or 10 cmH2O less than the air inflation pressure (Pinflat, 25 cmH2O).
		We found that 4.0-microns diameter particles were not able to enter septa at all.
		Latex particles were not present in all alveoli When Ppulmart was 5 cmH2O less than Pinflat, 32 +/- 6% of septa contained 0.24-microns diameter particles, but, when Ppulmart was 10 cmH2O less than Pinflat, 5 +/- 6% of septa contained these particles.

		During phonation he was pushed on the chest to increase Psb, the chest was held down to keep Psb high, and finally the chest was released again to lower Psb.
		This could be caused by a partial release of the chest, an adjustment of the respiratory muscles, or it could be a by-product of the decreasing lung volume.
		The total fall in Psb varied between 4.0 and 11.9 cmH2O, and the overall rate of Psb change varied between 1.7 and 8.1 cmH2O/s.

		The stress-strain curve for the submucosa-mucosa layer was shifted to the left of the curves for the muscle layer and for the intact esophagus at strains higher than 0.3, indicating that the submucosa-mucosa has the highest stiffness (figure 2).
		This corresponds to the finding of a lower Green strain at pressure above 1.5 cmH2O (figure 1).
		The difference found below strain 0.3 and pressure 1.5 is due to that the submucosa-mucosa is compressed in the intact esophagus.
