BACKGROUND: Enteral feeding intolerance, a common type of gastrointestinal dysfunction leading to underfeeding, is associated with increased mortality. Tracheal pepsin A, an indicator of microaspiration, was found in 39% of patients within 24 hours o...
BACKGROUND: Improper endotracheal tube (ETT) positioning is frequently observed and potentially hazardous in the intensive care unit. The authors developed a deep learning-based automatic detection algorithm detecting the ETT tip and carina on portab...
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of using deep learning segmentation for endotracheal tube (ETT) position on frontal chest x-rays (CXRs).

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Portable devices for home sleep apnea testing are often limited by their inability to discriminate sleep/wake status, possibly resulting in underestimations. Tracheal sound (TS), which can be visualized as a spectrogram, carries inf...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of exhalation valve location as well as its type on carbon dioxide (CO2) rebreathing during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV).
