Acute Respiratory Failure in the Adult: (First of Three Parts)
Abstract
Trends in Treatment of Acute Respiratory FailureFOR several years after paralytic poliomyelitis became a rare disease, the use of artificial ventilation in treatment of acute respiratory failure was infrequent. During the past decade this trend has rapidly changed.1 The yearly number of patients treated with prolonged artificial ventilation at the Massachusetts General Hospital, which in 1958 amounted to 66, is now 1400 to 1500. In 1971 such cases accounted for 7230 patient days. Over the past decade more than 7000 patients have been so treated.Where and by whom should the burgeoning number of patients requiring artificial ventilation be . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
