pubmed:abstractText |
A case of near fatal obstruction of a breathing system is described, due to occlusion of a heat and moisture exchange filter in a patient with pulmonary edema. Previous reports have described cases of mechanical obstruction to fresh gas flow due to an accumulation of a bolus of fluid within the filter housing. However, in this case, the cause of occlusion was due to the protein and cell debris contained in a small amount of pulmonary edema fluid interacting with the filter membrane.
