Herff H, Schroeder D, Bowden K, Paal P, Mitterlechner T, Wenzel V
Med Gas Res . 2020 Mar; 10(1):27-29. PMID: 32189666
In intensive care medicine heat moisture exchangers are standard tools to warm and humidify ventilation gases in order to prevent temperature loss of patients or airway epithelia damage. Despite being...

Mitterlechner T, Paal P, Schroeder D, Wenzel V, Herff H
Med Gas Res . 2018 Aug; 8(2):54-56. PMID: 30112166
Several incidents of anesthesia-attributed mortality in the past were caused by misconnection of gas pipelines resulting in ventilation with pure nitrous oxide. A simple safety feature may be to "mark"...

Mitterlechner T, Herff H, Hammel C, Braun P, Paal P, Wenzel V, et al.
J Emerg Med . 2014 Oct; 48(1):103-7. PMID: 25308899
Background: In preoxygenated patients, time until oxygen saturation drops can be extended by insufflating oxygen into their airways, thus oxygenating them apneically. Objectives: To compare different methods of apneic oxygenation....

Mitterlechner T, Paal P, Kuehnelt-Leddhin L, Strasak A, Putz G, Gravenstein N, et al.
Am J Emerg Med . 2012 Sep; 31(1):80-5. PMID: 22944550
Introduction: The aim of the study was to assess the effects of positioning the head on a support on "head position angles" to optimally open the upper airway during bag-valve...

Kloss F, Singh S, Hachl O, Rentenberger J, Auberger T, Kraft A, et al.
Head Neck . 2012 Mar; 35(2):235-41. PMID: 22407962
Background: Irradiation results in impaired bone healing. Thus, osteosynthesis procedures are afflicted with increased failure rates. To improve osseointegration bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) immobilized on nanocrystalline diamond (NCD)-coated implant surfaces...

Paal P, Pircher I, Baur T, Gruber E, Strasak A, Herff H, et al.
J Emerg Med . 2012 Jan; 43(3):472-7. PMID: 22257600
Background: Basic life support (BLS) performed by lay rescuers is poor. We developed software for mobile phones augmented with a metronome to improve BLS. Study Objectives: To assess BLS in...

Mitterlechner T, Wipp A, Paal P, Strasak A, Wenzel V, Felbinger T, et al.
Resuscitation . 2011 Mar; 82(6):740-2. PMID: 21396763
Introduction: In a model of severe simulated upper airway haemorrhage, we compared two techniques of performing endotracheal intubation: (1) suctioning via the endotracheal tube during laryngoscopy with subsequently advancing the...

Paal P, Niederklapfer T, Keller C, von Goedecke A, Luckner G, Pehboeck D, et al.
Resuscitation . 2010 Mar; 81(6):676-8. PMID: 20346568
Aims: Inexperienced health-care-providers may encounter severe problems to ventilate an unconscious child. Designing a ventilating device that could indicate how to open an upper airway correctly may be beneficial. Neutral...

Paal P, Herff H, Mitterlechner T, von Goedecke A, Brugger H, Lindner K, et al.
Resuscitation . 2009 Nov; 81(2):148-54. PMID: 19942337
Aims: To review anaesthesia in prehospital emergencies and in the emergency room, and to discuss guidelines for anaesthesia indication; pre-oxygenation; anaesthesia induction and drugs; airway management; anaesthesia maintenance and monitoring;...

Herff H, Paal P, Mitterlechner T, von Goedecke A, Stadlbauer K, Voelckel W, et al.
Resuscitation . 2009 Aug; 80(10):1142-6. PMID: 19674827
Aim: Ventilation of a non-intubated emergency patient by inexperienced rescuers with a standard bag-valve device may result in high inspiratory flow rates and subsequently high airway pressures with stomach inflation....
