Estimation of Static Lung Volumes and Capacities From Spirometry Using Machine Learning: Algorithm Development and Validation

Estimation of Static Lung Volumes and Capacities From Spirometry Using Machine Learning: Algorithm Development and Validation

Pulmonary function testing (PFT) provides physiological measurements of the respiratory system across multiple dimensions, typically classified into (1) spirometry, which measures air flow, lung volumes, and capacities during a expiratory forced vital capacity (FVC) maneuver; (2) static lung volumes; and (3) gas exchange parameters such as the diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide and oxygen saturations [1].

Prevalence and Economic Impact of Acute Respiratory Failure in the Prehospital Emergency Medical Service of the Madrid Community: Retrospective Cohort Study

Prevalence and Economic Impact of Acute Respiratory Failure in the Prehospital Emergency Medical Service of the Madrid Community: Retrospective Cohort Study

Acute pulmonary edema is associated with high mortality. It requires emergency management and usually admission to hospital [7,12,13]. Prospective studies have shown that early treatment applied by prehospital EMS improves short time outcomes and lower hospital readmissions, but the population susceptible to early treatment is unknown [14,15]. COPD, CHF, and acute pulmonary edema (APE) are serious illnesses that often require acute care from EMS [5,6,16].

Pulmonary and Physical Virtual Reality Exercises for Patients With Blunt Chest Trauma: Randomized Clinical Trial

Pulmonary and Physical Virtual Reality Exercises for Patients With Blunt Chest Trauma: Randomized Clinical Trial

The most frequent injuries are rib fractures, pneumothorax, and pulmonary contusion [2,4]. Chest trauma is associated with high risk (>10%) of pulmonary complications such as pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and need for ventilatory support [5-7]. Mortality after blunt chest trauma is 4%-20%, with pneumonia being the most important risk factor [1,6,8]. Management is mainly focused on the prevention of these pulmonary complications.

Smartphone Apps for Pulmonary Hypertension: Systematic Search and Content Evaluation

Smartphone Apps for Pulmonary Hypertension: Systematic Search and Content Evaluation

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pathophysiological disorder encompassing various clinical conditions, often associated with cardiovascular and respiratory diseases [1]. Effective management of PH requires a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach within specialized centers, ensuring enhanced patient care through collaborative diagnosis, treatment, and continuous quality monitoring [1,2].
