1. Auxiliar protocol for the investigation of incidents involving the use of pulmonary ventilators in ICU / Protocolo auxiliar para investigaÃÃo de incidentes envolvendo o uso de ventilador pulmonar em UTI
The use of electromedical devices in medicine generates the possibility of hazards for patients and health professionals. To assure a safe use of those devices the ANVISA Agency created a system called âTecnovigilÃnciaâ. The base of the system âTecnovigilÃnciaâ is the notification by the establishments of health of the incidents involving equipment tha

2. METROLOGICAL RELIABILITY OF LUNG VENTILATORS / CONFIABILIDADE METROLÓGICA DE VENTILADORES PULMONARES
The present Masters dissertation evaluates the metrological reliability of pulmonary ventilators, also known as mechanical ventilators. Pulmonary ventilators are electromedical equipment (EEM). The absence of metrological reliability of a pulmonary ventilator may result in dangerous consequences, according to its classification by the potential risk to the h

3. Efeito da umidificação dos gases anestésicos nas propriedades físicas e transportabilidade do muco respiratório durante anestesia geral / Effects of inspired gases humidity on respiratory mucus in patients under general anesthesia
Background: In patients who are intubated, the natural mechanism of gas climatization by the nose and the upper airway is bypassed. During anesthesia, when the inspiratory gases are cold and dry, humidification of gases is recommended to prevent drying of the mucosal epithelium and respiratory secretions. The anesthesia systems have inherent humidifying prop

4. Respiratory muscle and pulmonary function in polymyositis and other proximal myopathies.
We studied 53 patients with proximal myopathy to determine at what level of muscle weakness hypercapnic respiratory failure is likely, and which tests of pulmonary function or respiratory muscle strength would best suggest this development. Respiratory muscle strength was determined from maximal static efforts and in half the patients, both inspiratory and e

5. Quantification of asymmetric lung pathophysiology as a guide to the use of simultaneous independent lung ventilation in posttraumatic and septic adult respiratory distress syndrome.
The management of impaired respiratory gas exchange in patients with nonuniform posttraumatic and septic adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) contains its own therapeutic paradox, since the need for volume-controlled ventilation and PEEP in the lung with the most reduced compliance increases pulmonary barotrauma to the better lung. A computer-based sys
