Part 1: The effect of various methods of lung recruitment maneuvers on hemodynamics and lung status of canines ARDS modelObjective: To investigate the effect of recruitment maneuver with sustained inflation (SI) and Pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) on oleic acid induced canine ARDS model.

The clinical study of functional residual capacity in ARDS patients affected by PEEP level after alveolar recruitment;

Effects of different levels of positive end expiratory pressure on lung recruitment and hemodynamics after sustained inflation in acute respiratory distress syndrome in sheep;

Exploratory development of PEEP stepwise increase on lung recruitment maneuvers in acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effects of sustained inflation (SI) combined with small tidal volume ventilation on lung recruitment and hemodynamics in patients with acute lung injury (ALI).

Effects of lung recruitment maneuver on oxygenation and hemodynamics after open endotracheal suctioning in acute respiratory distress syndrome;

Methods Fifteen ARDS cases ventilated and monitored by the pulse contour method (PiCCO) were randomized into APRV group and CPAP group, then lung recruitment maneuver (RM) was executed every 4 hours.

Recruitment maneuvers are more and more important in the patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) receiving mechanical ventilation.

Effect of recruitment maneuver on alveolar epithelium barrier in rat with acute lung injury Objective To evaluate the influence of recruitment maneuver (RM) on alveolar epithelium barrier in rat with acute lung injury (ALI).

Clinical effect of lung recruitment maneuver on hypoxemia for post operative cardiopulmonary bypass cardiac surgery patients;
