Scattered and casual reports have appeared in the literature to the effect that, after delivery of a ftus by Caesarean section, fluid continues to be formed in the lungs on such a scale as to suggest that the lungs may be an important source of amniotic fluid 3 . However, except for ...

A fluid, on the other hand, flows under the action of a shearing stress, no matter how small this stress is. A fluid at rest has no shearing stresses, and all forces are at right angles to the surrounding surfaces. Materials such as glass and solid bitumen are fluids and, if stressed ...
16 Pleural fluid is found in the space between the lungs and the pleural sac; pericardial fluid, in the space between the heart and the pericardial sac; and peritoneal fluid, between the intestine and the peritoneal sac (Figure 15.13). An accumulation of fluid in a cavity is termed an ...
[4]. Body areas that are particularly susceptible to crystalloid fluid overload, such as the skin, lungs, and gastrointestinal wall, have a high compliance for volume expansion. Volume loading might also cause degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx layer. However, infusing 25 mL/kg seems to ...
(which may be described by a sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) organ sub-score equal to or greater than 3) that may be due to FA, [16]. Most organ systems, including the lungs, heart, and gastrointestinal tract, are negatively affected by FAS (see Fig.1for an overview) [16]...
Medicalization of the process of labor over a century has led to the imposition of many practices on women with regard to eating and drinking; many of these lack any evidence as well as logic by our current standards. Since Mendelson published his classi
The ongoing evolution of imaging techniques, particularly 3D-CT, offers us the ability to observe the lungs' intricate anatomical structure in greater detail. Subsequently, segmentectomy is now recognized as an alternative surgical approach to the more radical lobectomy, particularly for lung cancer ...
“so extreme that one lung was inflating while the other was deflating,” ie, paradoxical ventilation, immediately reversible with thoracentesis. The authors reported that after thoracentesis, “ipsilateral and contralateral lungs re-aerated immediately and without further re-aeration over the next hour...
(hypernatremia = free water deficit). Free water may be gained by drinking water, may be administered in the form of 5% dextrose in water, or may occur secondary to high levels of antidiuretic hormone. Free water may be lost via evaporation (lungs and skin) or by losing fluids that are...
