Patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA) is a challenge to invasive mechanical ventilation characterized by misalignment of ventilatory support and patient respiratory effort. PVA is highly prevalent and associated with adverse clinical outcomes, includin...
Mechanical ventilation is the process through which breathing support is provided to patients who face inconvenience during respiration. During the pandemic, many people were suffering from lung disorders, which elevated the demand for mechanical ven...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA) is associated with poor clinical outcomes and remains under-monitored. Automated PVA detection would enable complete monitoring standard observational methods do not allow. While model-bas...
BACKGROUND: Flow starvation is a type of patient-ventilator asynchrony that occurs when gas delivery does not fully meet the patients' ventilatory demand due to an insufficient airflow and/or a high inspiratory effort, and it is usually identified by...
BACKGROUND: The study of patient-ventilator interactions (PVI) in mechanically ventilated neonates is limited by the lack of unified PVI definitions and tools to perform large scale analyses.
BACKGROUND: Patient-ventilator asynchronies are usually detected by visual inspection of ventilator waveforms but with low sensitivity, even when performed by experts in the field. Recently, estimation of the inspiratory muscle pressure (P) waveforms...
Severe diaphragm dysfunction can lead to respiratory failure and to the need for permanent mechanical ventilation. Yet permanent tethering to a mechanical ventilator through the mouth or via tracheostomy can hinder a patient's speech, swallowing abil...
OBJECTIVES: To use deep learning of serial portable chest X-ray (pCXR) and clinical variables to predict mortality and duration on invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) for Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients.
Delaying intubation for patients failing Bi-Level Positive Airway Pressure (BIPAP) may be associated with harm. The objective of this study was to develop a deep learning model capable of aiding clinical decision making by predicting Bi-Level Positiv...
