Cardiopulmonary coupling indices to assess weaning readiness from mechanical ventilation
(Scientific Reports, 2021)The ideal moment to withdraw respiratory supply of patients under Mechanical Ventilation at Intensive Care Units (ICU), is not easy to be determined for clinicians. Although the Spontaneous Breathing ... -
Development and validation of a sample entropy-based method to identify complex patient-ventilator interactions during mechanical ventilation
(Scientific Reports, 2020)Patient-ventilator asynchronies can be detected by close monitoring of ventilator screens by clinicians or through automated algorithms. However, detecting complex patient-ventilator interactions (CP-VI), ... -
Evaluation of the immunomodulatory effects of cobalt, copper and magnesium ions in a pro inflammatory environment
(Scientific Reports, 2021)Biomaterials and scaffolds for Tissue Engineering are widely used for an effective healing and regeneration. However, the implantation of these scaffolds causes an innate immune response in which the ... -
A novel device for assessment and treatment of upper cervical spine: test–retest reliability study
(Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2023)Introduction: Neck pain is one of the most frequent reasons for consultation in primary care. Clinicians evaluate different variables, including movement and cervical strength, to determine the prognosis ... -
Predicting patient-ventilator asynchronies with hidden markov models
(Scientific Reports, 2018-12-04)In mechanical ventilation, it is paramount to ensure the patient’s ventilatory demand is met while minimizing asynchronies. We aimed to develop a model to predict the likelihood of asynchronies occurring. ...
