摘要: The aims of this study were to determine whether caffeine administration increased respiratory muscle function and if was associated with lung improvement in prematurely born infants being weaned from mechanical ventilation. Respiratory assessed by measurement the maximum pressures generated during occlusions at end inspiration (Pemax) expiration (Pimax) volume (functional residual capacity (FRC)) system compliance (CRS) resistance (RRS) 18 a median gestational age 28 (range 24-36) weeks. Measurements made immediately prior (baseline) 6 h later. Six hours after compared baseline, Pemax (p = 0.017), Pimax 0.004), FRC < 0.001), CRS 0.002) RRS 0.004) had significantly improved. Our results suggest that facilitates weaning ventilation improving strength.
