PEEP or No PEEP: That Is Not the Question
Published 1996-01-01“…In the absence of controlled clinical trials, the use of PEEP in acute respiratory distress syndrome needs to be guided by physiological principles that balance the beneficial effects of an increase in functional residual capacity, prevention of alveolar closure, redistribution of lung water and improved ventilation of low ventilation-perfusion areas against the potential harm of alveolar rupture (barotrauma and "volutrauma") and reduction in cardiac output.…”

Is It Still Prohibited to Perform Spinal Anesthesia in Patients with Advanced Heart Disease?
Published 2024-09-01“… Spinal anesthesia is generally prohibited in patients with severe valvular heart disease (e.g. severe aortic stenosis), cardiomyopathies and heart failure concerning the hemodynamic effects of sympathetic system blockade in patients with limited cardiac output. Intrathecal single injection of low doses of local anesthetic in combination with low dose short acting opioids can be administered safely in lower abdominal and lower limb surgeries lasting 60 to 90 minutes . …”
