An average of 14,000 pulmonary, critical care and sleep medicine clinicians and researchers from around the world attend the ATS multidisciplinary conference each year. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 global crisis the 2020 meeting has been cancelled. However, Lungpacer Medical, Inc. is pleased to announce that four preclinical abstracts were accepted for poster presentation, and one for podium presentation, all of which will be published. Lungpacer Medical, Inc. also had two abstracts selected for poster presentation on early markers of prolonged MV and economic outcomes at US hospitals. The abstracts are:
- Increased Hippocampal Apoptotic Index After 50 Hours of Gold-Standard Mechanical Ventilation in a Pre-Clinical Pig Model, Bassi, T., et al. (selected for podium presentation)
- Temporary Transvenous Phrenic-Nerve-Stimulated Diaphragm Neurostimulation During Mechanical Ventilation Preserves Homogeneity in Non-Injured Lungs, Rohrs, E., et al.
- Increased Hippocampal Cytokine-Mediated Neuroinflammation After 50 Hours of Gold-Standard Mechanical Ventilation in a Pre-Clinical Pig Model, Bassi, T., et al.
- Negative Hippocampal Turnover Index After 50 Hours of Gold-Standard Mechanical Ventilation in a Pre-Clinical Pig Model, Bassi, T., et al.
- Increased Presence of Neural Pro-Inflammatory Cells in the Hippocampus After 50 Hours of Gold-Standard Mechanical Ventilation in a Pre-Clinical Pig Model, Bassi, T., et al.
- Economic Outcomes Among Patients Requiring Prolonged Acute Vs. Short-Term Mechanical Ventilation in the US, 2014-2018: Results from a Multicenter Cohort Study, Zilberberg, et al.
- Early Markers of the Need for Prolonged Acute Vs. Short-Term Mechanical Ventilation in the US, 2014-2018: Results from a Multicenter Cohort Study, Zilberberg, et al.
