  • Airway Pressures and Volutrauma
    Airway Pressures and Volutrauma Airway Pressures and Volutrauma: Is Measuring Tracheal Pressure Worth the Hassle? Monitoring airway pressures during mechanical ventilation is a standard of care.1 Sequential recording of airway pressures not only provides information regarding changes in pulmonary impedance but also allows safety parameters to be set. Safety parameters include high- and low-pressure alarms during positive pressure breaths and disconnect alarms. These standards are, of course, based on our experience with volume control ventilation in adults. During pressure control ventilation, monitoring airway pressures remains important, but volume monitoring and alarms are also required. Airway pressures and work of breathing are also important components of derived variables, including airway resistance, static compliance, dynamic compliance, and intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (auto-PEEP), measured at the bedside.2 The requisite pressures for these variables include peak inspiratory pressure, inspiratory plateau pressure, expiratory plateau pressure, and change in airway pressure within a breath. Plateau pressures should be measured at periods of zero flow during both volume control and pressure control ventilation. Change in airway pressure should be measured relative to change in volume delivery to the lung (pressure-volume loop) to elucidate work of breathing. See the related study on Page 1179. Evidence that mechanical ventilation can cause and exacerbate acute lung injury has been steadily mounting.3-5 While most of this evidence has originated from laboratory animal studies, recent clinical reports appear to support this concept.6,7 Traditionally, ventilator-induced lung injury brings to mind the clinical picture of tension pneumothorax. Barotrauma (from the root word baro, which means pressure) is typically associated with excessive airway pressures.

  • Increasing the Inspiratory Time and I:E Ratio During Mechanical Ventilation
    Müller-Redetzky et al. Critical Care (2015) 19:23 DOI 10.1186/s13054-015-0759-2 RESEARCH Open Access Increasing the inspiratory time and I:E ratio during mechanical ventilation aggravates ventilator-induced lung injury in mice Holger C Müller-Redetzky1*, Matthias Felten1, Katharina Hellwig1, Sandra-Maria Wienhold1, Jan Naujoks1, Bastian Opitz1, Olivia Kershaw2, Achim D Gruber2, Norbert Suttorp1 and Martin Witzenrath1 Abstract Introduction: Lung-protective ventilation reduced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) mortality. To minimize ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), tidal volume is limited, high plateau pressures are avoided, and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is applied. However, the impact of specific ventilatory patterns on VILI is not well defined. Increasing inspiratory time and thereby the inspiratory/expiratory ratio (I:E ratio) may improve oxygenation, but may also be harmful as the absolute stress and strain over time increase. We thus hypothesized that increasing inspiratory time and I:E ratio aggravates VILI. Methods: VILI was induced in mice by high tidal-volume ventilation (HVT 34 ml/kg). Low tidal-volume ventilation (LVT 9 ml/kg) was used in control groups. PEEP was set to 2 cm H2O, FiO2 was 0.5 in all groups. HVT and LVT mice were ventilated with either I:E of 1:2 (LVT 1:2, HVT 1:2) or 1:1 (LVT 1:1, HVT 1:1) for 4 hours or until an alternative end point, defined as mean arterial blood pressure below 40 mm Hg. Dynamic hyperinflation due to the increased I:E ratio was excluded in a separate group of animals. Survival, lung compliance, oxygenation, pulmonary permeability, markers of pulmonary and systemic inflammation (leukocyte differentiation in lung and blood, analyses of pulmonary interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, keratinocyte-derived chemokine, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1), and histopathologic pulmonary changes were analyzed.

In India, neonatal mortality has decreased by 42% during the same period. (1) With the increasing survival and therapeutic advances, the new paradigm is now on providing best quality of care and preventing complications related to therapy. Assisted ventilation dates back to 1879, when the Aerophone Pulmonaire, the world’s earliest ventilator was developed. This was essentially a simple tube connected to a rubber bulb. The tube was placed in the infant’s airway and the bulb was alternately compressed and released to produce inspiration and expiration. (2) With better understanding of pulmonary physiology and mechanics , lung protective strategies have evolved in the last two decades, with new resuscitation devices that limit pressure (T-piece resuscitator), non-invasive ventilation, microprocessors that allow synchronised breaths and regulate volume and high frequency oscillators/ jet ventilators.

  • The Future of Mechanical Ventilation: Lessons from the Present and the Past Luciano Gattinoni1*, John J
    Gattinoni et al. Critical Care (2017) 21:183 DOI 10.1186/s13054-017-1750-x REVIEW Open Access The future of mechanical ventilation: lessons from the present and the past Luciano Gattinoni1*, John J. Marini2, Francesca Collino1, Giorgia Maiolo1, Francesca Rapetti1, Tommaso Tonetti1, Francesco Vasques1 and Michael Quintel1 Abstract The adverse effects of mechanical ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) arise from two main causes: unphysiological increases of transpulmonary pressure and unphysiological increases/decreases of pleural pressure during positive or negative pressure ventilation. The transpulmonary pressure-related side effects primarily account for ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) while the pleural pressure-related side effects primarily account for hemodynamic alterations. The changes of transpulmonary pressure and pleural pressure resulting from a given applied driving pressure depend on the relative elastances of the lung and chest wall. The term ‘volutrauma’ should refer to excessive strain, while ‘barotrauma’ should refer to excessive stress. Strains exceeding 1.5, corresponding to a stress above ~20 cmH2O in humans, are severely damaging in experimental animals. Apart from high tidal volumes and high transpulmonary pressures, the respiratory rate and inspiratory flow may also play roles in the genesis of VILI. We do not know which fraction of mortality is attributable to VILI with ventilation comparable to that reported in recent clinical practice surveys (tidal volume ~7.5 ml/kg, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ~8 cmH2O, rate ~20 bpm, associated mortality ~35%). Therefore, a more complete and individually personalized understanding of ARDS lung mechanics and its interaction with the ventilator is needed to improve future care.

Slutsky8 and Guillermo M. Albaiceta1,2,3,6 Abstract Background: Cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (CPE) may contribute to ventilator‑associated lung injury (VALI) in patients with cardiogenic shock. The appropriate ventilatory strategy remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the impact of ultra‑low tidal volume ventilation with tidal volume of 3 ml/kg predicted body weight (PBW) in patients with CPE and veno–arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V–A ECMO) on lung infammation compared to conventional ventilation. Methods: A single‑centre randomized crossover trial was performed in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at a ter‑ tiary university hospital. Seventeen adults requiring V–A ECMO and mechanical ventilation due to cardiogenic shock were included from February 2017 to December 2018. Patients were ventilated for two consecutive periods of 24 h with tidal volumes of 6 and 3 ml/kg of PBW, respectively, applied in random order. Primary outcome was the change in proinfammatory mediators in bronchoalveolar lavage fuid (BALF) between both ventilatory strategies. Results: Ventilation with 3 ml/kg PBW yielded lower driving pressures and end‑expiratory lung volumes.

Although much has been written about the advantages and disadvantages of these increasingly complex modalities, currently there is no convincing evi- dence of the superiority of one mode of ventilation over another. It is also important to bear in mind that individual patient characteristics must be considered when adopting a particular mode of ventilatory support. As em- phasized in the 1993 American College of Chest Physicians Consensus Con- ference on Mechanical Ventilation, ‘‘although the quantitative response of a given physiologic variable may be predictable, the qualitative response is highly variable and patient specific’’ [1]. Partly because of the inherent difficulties in working with pressure venti- lation, the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Network chose to use a volume mode of support for their landmark low tidal volumetrial [2]. The preference for volume ventilation at ARDS Network centers was later demonstrated in a retrospective study of clinicians’ early approach to me- chanical ventilation in acute lung injury/ARDS. Pressure control was used in only 10% of the patient population before study entry. There was a mod- est tendency to use pressure control ventilation (PCV) in patients with more severe oxygenation defects (PaO2/FiO2, or P/F !200) and a greater toler- ance for higher airway pressures when using this mode.

Of great importance is the understanding that as the underlying lung injury worsens, the degree of injury from mechanical ventilation increases. An inflammatory process results from mechanical stimuli and this may contribute to distant organ dysfunction. A great deal of knowledge has been obtained from the use of animal models, however, one must be cautious about extrapolating these findings directly to the clinical setting without the use of adequately designed clinical trials. Tidal volume reduction and higher levels of PEEP and recruitment manoeuvres should be employed given the available evidence. The use of high frequency techniques, surfactant therapy despite their past track record, may prove to be exciting ‘re-discoveries’. Conclusions: Ventilator- induced lung injury is an iatrogenic disturbance that increases morbidity and mortality associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Tidal volume reduction and increased levels of PEEP reduce the plasma levels of inflammatory mediators and the mortality associated with ARDS.

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) / Acute Lung Injury
    Intensive Care Unit, Prince of Wales Hospital, Chinese University of Hong Kong ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME (ARDS) ACUTE LUNG INJURY (ALI) Definitions Acute lung injury is defined as a syndrome of acute lung inflammation with increased vascular permeability, characterized by the following: 1. Bilateral diffuse pulmonary infiltrates on chest radiograph 2. 200 mmHg <PaO2 / FiO2 < 300 mmHg, irrespective of the level of PEEP 3. No clinical evidence of elevated left atrial pressure or pulmonary capillary wedge pressure <18 mmHg Acute respiratory distress syndrome is defined as a syndrome of acute lung inflammation with increased vascular permeability, characterized by the following: 1. Bilateral diffuse pulmonary infiltrate on chest radiograph 2. PaO2 / FiO2 < 200 mmHg, irrespective of the level of PEEP 3. No clinical evidence of elevated left atrial pressure or pulmonary capillary wedge pressure <18 mmHg ARDS and ALI represent the same disease spectrum but differ in severity Causes of ARDS/ALI: Direct Pulmonary injury Pneumonia Aspiration of gastric contents Pulmonary contusion Fat emboli Near-drowning Inhalation of toxic gases Reperfusion pulmonary oedema following dissolution of pulmonary emboli Extrapulmonary injury Sepsis Severe trauma Massive transfusion of blood Cardiopulmonary bypass Drug overdose Acute pancreatitis Pathophysiology • Inflammation of alveoli with diffuse alveolar injury • Release of pro-inflammatory cytokines • Recruitment of neutrophils to lung to release reactive oxygen species and protease • Loss of barrier
