Tools for protective lung ventilation. The elastic pressure-volume curve and aspiration of dead space

Popular Abstract in Swedish Mekanisk ventilation kan medföra "ventilationsinducerad lungskada" (VILI), som kan öka sjuklighet och dödlighet i samband med akut lungskada (ALI). Flera ventilationssätt har föreslagits för att undvika VILI, men inte slutgiltigt utvärderats. En princip är att öka alveolär ventilation och CO2-elimination genom att minska ventilationen av de skadliga rummet, dead space. Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) may contribute to morbidity and mortality of acute lung injury (ALI). Lung protective ventilation (LPV), that reduces VILI, may involve low tidal volume (Vt). Particularly low Vt is possible if dead space ventilation is reduced e.g. by aspiration of dead space gas (ASPIDS). ASPIDS implies that gas rich in CO2 during expiration is aspirated through a separate c

Working together for enhancement-led and voluntary institutional quality audit

The national QA system in Sweden does not any longer include assessment of the institutions’ internal QA procedures. The Experts Group on Quality at the Swedish Association for Higher Education (SHUF) has proposed and tested how voluntary audits can be performed by the institutions in collaboration, coordinated by SUHF. The audits have quality enhancement as its sole purpose. The audit method focu

Oblique Subjects and Stylistic Fronting in the History of Scandinavian and English: The Role of IP-Spec

The thesis discusses three morphosyntactic changes in Danish, Faroese, Norwegian, Swedish and English, namely the loss of morphological case, loss of V-to-I movement and the loss of stylistic fronting. The changes are observed on the basis of Icelandic which has kept all three characteristics. The hypothesis is that even though the loss of morphological case causes the loss of DAT-NOM constructio
