Respiratory therapies for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A state of the art review
Chron Respir Dis. 2023 Jan-Dec;20:14799731231175915. doi: 10.1177/14799731231175915.ABSTRACTAmyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative condition noteworthy for upper and lower motor neuron death. Involvement of respiratory motor neuron pools leads to progressive pathology. These impairments include decreases in neural activation and muscle coordination, progressive airway obstruction, weakened airway defenses, restrictive lung disease, increased risk of pulmonary infections, and weakness and atrophy of respiratory muscles. These neural, airway, pulmonary, and neuromuscular changes deteriorate integrated res...

Comparing Knowledge Acquisition and Retention Between Mobile Learning and Traditional Learning in Teaching Respiratory Therapy Students: A Randomized Control Trial
CONCLUSION: Both m-learning and traditional learning are effective in increasing knowledge acquisition and retention. However, no one is better than the other. Further researches were needed with larger sample size through multi-institutional studies to validate the results of this study.PMID:37051507 | PMC:PMC10084877 | DOI:10.2147/AMEP.S390794 (Source: Adv Data)

Multimodal evaluation of locoregional anaesthesia efficacy on postoperative pain after robotic pulmonary lobectomy for NSCLC: a pilot study
AbstractThe primary objectives of the study were to analyse the robotic approach and ultrasound-guided paravertebral block compared to thoracoscopic intercostal nerve block after robotic pulmonary lobectomy on postoperative pain and opioids use. The secondary objectives were to analyse and compare patients ’ necessity of additional antalgic drugs and patients’ performance during respiratory therapy, following robotic surgery and in the two groups. Consecutively, 52 patients undergoing robotic pulmonary lobectomies were treated either with ropivacaine-based intercostal nerve block or paravertebral block from February 20...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy: Current treatment and emerging exon skipping and gene therapy approach
Eur J Pharmacol. 2023 Mar 22:175675. doi: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2023.175675. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDuchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked recessive neuromuscular disorder that causes debilitating muscle weakness and atrophy due to a loss of the dystrophin protein. Patients with DMD are commonly diagnosed at about 3-5 years of age and progressively decline until complications of the disease often result in death at about 20 years of age. While there is no current cure for DMD, several treatment options focus on improving the quality of life and slowing progression of symptoms associated with the disease. The cu...

Effect of end-of-life care education on perceived self-efficacy of the pediatric respiratory therapist
CONCLUSION: Education on EoLC practices increased pediatric RTs' perception of knowledge, perceived value of respiratory therapy in EoLC, comfort with EoLC, and knowledge of coping resources.PMID:36874476 | PMC:PMC9980158 | DOI:10.29390/cjrt-2022-001 (Source: Respiratory Care)
