First, do no harm: bilateral radial artery occlusion in a COVID-19 patient.
Bouwhuis A, Schober P, Heunks LMA, Schwarte LA. Bouwhuis A, et al. Among authors: heunks lma. J Clin Monit Comput. 2021 May;35(3):661-662. doi: 10.1007/s10877-020-00555-2. Epub 2020 Jul 6. J Clin Monit Comput. 2021. PMID: 32632667 Free PMC article.
OBJECTIVE: Objective of this case report is to draw attention to a less known thrombotic complication associated with COVID-19, i.e., thrombosis of both radial arteries, with possible (long-term) consequences. THE CASE: In our COVID-19 ICU a 49-year-old male patient was ad …

Effect of Bronchoscopy on Gas Exchange and Respiratory Mechanics in Critically Ill Patients With Atelectasis: An Observational Cohort Study.
Smeijsters KMG, Bijkerk RM, Daniels JMA, van de Ven PM, Girbes ARJ, Heunks LMA, Spijkstra JJ, Tuinman PR. Smeijsters KMG, et al. Among authors: heunks lma. Front Med (Lausanne). 2018 Nov 13;5:301. doi: 10.3389/fmed.2018.00301. eCollection 2018. Front Med (Lausanne). 2018. PMID: 30483505 Free PMC article.
Background: Atelectasis frequently develops in critically ill patients and may result in impaired gas exchange among other complications. The long-term effects of bronchoscopy on gas exchange and the effects on respiratory mechanics are largely unknown. ...

Critical illness-associated diaphragm weakness.
Dres M, Goligher EC, Heunks LMA, Brochard LJ. Dres M, et al. Among authors: heunks lma. Intensive Care Med. 2017 Oct;43(10):1441-1452. doi: 10.1007/s00134-017-4928-4. Epub 2017 Sep 15. Intensive Care Med. 2017. PMID: 28917004 Review.
Several risk factors for diaphragm weakness have been identified; among them sepsis and mechanical ventilation play central roles. We employ the term critical illness-associated diaphragm weakness to refer to the collective effects of all mechanisms of diaphragm injury and …

Low-tidal-volume mechanical ventilation induces a toll-like receptor 4-dependent inflammatory response in healthy mice.
Vaneker M, Joosten LA, Heunks LM, Snijdelaar DG, Halbertsma FJ, van Egmond J, Netea MG, van der Hoeven JG, Scheffer GJ. Vaneker M, et al. Anesthesiology. 2008 Sep;109(3):465-72. doi: 10.1097/ALN.0b013e318182aef1. Anesthesiology. 2008. PMID: 18719444 Free article.
CONCLUSIONS: The current study supports a role for TLR4 in the inflammatory reaction after short-term MV in healthy lungs. Increasing the understanding of the innate immune response to MV may lead to future treatment advances in ventilator-induced lung injury, in which TLR …

Supplemental oxygen prevents exercise-induced oxidative stress in muscle-wasted patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
van Helvoort HA, Heijdra YF, Heunks LM, Meijer PL, Ruitenbeek W, Thijs HM, Dekhuijzen PN. van Helvoort HA, et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2006 May 15;173(10):1122-9. doi: 10.1164/rccm.200512-1957OC. Epub 2006 Mar 2. Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2006. PMID: 16514109 Clinical Trial.
RATIONALE: Although oxygen therapy is of clear benefit in patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), recent studies have shown that short-term supplementary oxygen may increase oxidative stress and inflammation within the airways. ...In addition, fr …
