Proportional Assist Ventilation Improves Exercise Capacity in Patients with Obesity

Subject Area:
Pharmacology , Pneumology
Michael Dreher, Hans-Joachim Kabitz, Verena Burgardt, Stephan Walterspacher, Wolfram Windisch
Journal: Respiration
Respiration (2010) 80 (2): 106–111.
https://doi.org/10.1159/000245272
Published Online: 06 October 2009
...Michael Dreher; Hans-Joachim Kabitz; Verena Burgardt; Stephan Walterspacher; Wolfram Windisch Background: Exercise capacity is reduced in obese patients due to disadvantageous respiratory mechanics that lead to dyspnea. Proportional assist ventilation (PAV) has the potential to unload resistive...

Effect of Different Levels of Pressure Support and Proportional Assist Ventilation on Breathing Pattern, Work of Breathing and Gas Exchange in Mechanically Ventilated Hypercapnic COPD Patients with Acute Respiratory Failure

Subject Area:
Pharmacology , Pneumology
F. Passam, S. Hoing, G. Prinianakis, N. Siafakas, J. Milic-Emili, D. Georgopoulos
Journal: Respiration
Respiration (2003) 70 (4): 355–361.
https://doi.org/10.1159/000072897
Published Online: 17 September 2003
...F. Passam; S. Hoing; G. Prinianakis; N. Siafakas; J. Milic-Emili; D. Georgopoulos Background: Proportional assist ventilation (PAV) has been shown to maintain better patient-ventilator synchrony than pressure support ventilation (PSV); however, its clinical advantage regarding invasive ventilation...
