Prolonged mechanical ventilation worsens sepsis-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction in the rat.
BACKGROUND:Short-term mechanical ventilation (MV) protects against sepsis-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction. Prolonged MV induces diaphragmatic dysfunction in non-septic animals, but few reports describe the effects of prolonged MV in sepsis. We hypothesized that prolonged MV is not protective but w...
