  WELCOME TO THE  Homepage OF THE PULMONARY Engineering   Group
    Pulmonary Engineering Group (PEG)
        The PEG is a team of researchers from the Department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine 
at the University Hospital Dresden (department head: Professor T. Koch). Our group is interested in the development and evaluation of new and innovative forms of 
mechanical ventilation, with a focus on the therapy of acute lung failure (ALI/ARDS). We conduct research in 
large and small animal models at the Medical Theoretical Center (MTZ). Our clinical trials are undertaken in 
operating suites and intensive care units at the university hospital. In addition, we are involved in the development of innovative tools for modeling and diagnosing 
the respiratory system. A number of highly skilled engineers provide us with technical expertise on this 
project.Details.. MembersOur group is comprised of anesthesiologists, engineers, biologists, medical laboratory technicians as 
well as  doctoral students and research fellows. Presiding the group is M. Gama de Abreu, Professor of 
Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine, Head of Research.
