    Notes: Abstract A workshop was held on “Aspects of treatment of patients with glycogen storage disease” within the framework of the Concerted Action “Inborn errors of metabolism” of the European Communities. Consensus was reached on the main issues of treatment of patients with deficiency of glucose-6-phosphatase, glucose-6-phosphate translocase, debranching enzyme, liver phosphorylase and phosphorylase-b-kinase. The resulting recommendations are reported.

    Notes: Abstract We report a case of hyperinflation induced isorythmic atrio-ventricular dissociation with circulatory failure in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The arrythmia was successfully treated by applying “pressure support ventilation” (PSV: 20 cmH2O) which, by decreasing the respiratory rate and increasing the expiratory time reduced the level of auto-PEEP. In order to explain this result the Authors recorded, in the same patient, the level of auto-PEEP and ΔFRC obtained with Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (IPPV), Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (IMV) and PSV at the same gas exchange values. PSV showed a dramatic reduction of both these parameters. (Auto-PEEP: IPPV 12 cmH2O, IMV 17 cmH2O, PSV 7 cmH2O).

    Notes: Abstract We investigated the levels of auto-PEEP and dynamic hyperinflation during high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) and controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) in six patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease within the first 36 h of acute exacerbation. The comparative evaluation was performed at similar conditions of gas exchange in HFJV and CMV: PaO2 77.6±11 mmHg vs 80.8±12 mmHg; PaCO2 46.8±2.5 mmHg vs 47±2.8 mmHg; pH 7.38 vs 7.38. In this situation, the values of auto-PEEP and dynamic hyperinflation, expressed as Δ over the apneic functional residual capacity (FRC) did not differ: (auto-PEEPHFJV 8.9±3.8 cmH2O; auto-PEEPCMV 8.8±4.7 cmH2O; ΔFRCHFJV 0.56±0.19 l; ΔFRCCMV 0.54±0.2 l). This result suggests that, with a suitable machine setting and similar gas exchanges, HFJV produces the same level of auto-PEEP and dynamic hyperinflation as CMV in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
