  • Effect of Spontaneous Breathing on Ventilator- Induced Lung Injury In
    Xia et al. Critical Care 2011, 15:R244 http://ccforum.com/content/15/5/R244 RESEARCH Open Access Effect of spontaneous breathing on ventilator- induced lung injury in mechanically ventilated healthy rabbits: a randomized, controlled, experimental study Jingen Xia, Bing Sun, Hangyong He, Heng Zhang, Chunting Wang and Qingyuan Zhan* Abstract Introduction: Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), one of the most serious complications of mechanical ventilation (MV), can impact patients’ clinical prognoses. Compared to control ventilation, preserving spontaneous breathing can improve many physiological features in ventilated patients, such as gas distribution, cardiac performance, and ventilation-perfusion matching. However, the effect of spontaneous breathing on VILI is unknown. The goal of this study was to compare the effects of spontaneous breathing and control ventilation on lung injury in mechanically- ventilated healthy rabbits. Methods: Sixteen healthy New Zealand white rabbits were randomly placed into a spontaneous breathing group (SB Group) and a control ventilation group (CV Group). Both groups were ventilated for eight hours using biphasic positive airway pressure (BIPAP) with similar ventilator parameters: inspiration pressure (PI) resulting in a tidal volume (VT) of 10 to 15 ml/kg, inspiratory-to-expiratory ratio of 1:1, positive end-expiration pressure (PEEP) of 2 cmH2O, and FiO2 of 0.5. Inflammatory markers in blood serum, lung homogenates and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), total protein levels in BALF, mRNA expressions of selected cytokines in lung tissue, and lung injury histopathology scores were determined. Results: Animals remained hemodynamically stable throughout the entire experiment. After eight hours of MV, compared to the CV Group, the SB Group had lower PaCO2 values and ratios of dead space to tidal volume, and higher lung compliance.

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.

  • Biomarkers of Acute Lung Injury: Worth Their Salt? Alastair G Proudfoot1,2†, Matthew Hind1,2† and Mark JD Griffiths1,2*†
    Proudfoot et al. BMC Medicine 2011, 9:132 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7015/9/132 Clinical Biomarkers OPINION Open Access Biomarkers of acute lung injury: worth their salt? Alastair G Proudfoot1,2†, Matthew Hind1,2† and Mark JD Griffiths1,2*† Abstract The validation of biomarkers has become a key goal of translational biomedical research. The purpose of this article is to discuss the role of biomarkers in the management of acute lung injury (ALI) and related research. Biomarkers should be sensitive and specific indicators of clinically important processes and should change in a relevant timeframe to affect recruitment to trials or clinical management. We do not believe that they necessarily need to reflect pathogenic processes. We critically examined current strategies used to identify biomarkers and which, owing to expedience, have been dominated by reanalysis of blood derived markers from large multicenter Phase 3 studies. Combining new and existing validated biomarkers with physiological and other data may add predictive power and facilitate the development of important aids to research and therapy.

Despite significant decreases in preterm mortality, BPD rates in infants born < 28 weeks gestational age have remained unchanged at approximately 40% i ii iii. This probably is due to the multifactorial pathogenesis of BPD, with lung injury to the immature pulmonary tissue secondary to exposures including but not limited to antenatal/postnatal infection, free oxygen radical toxicity, and/or mechanical ventilation all leading to lung inflammation. Delivery room (DR) practices of preterm infant during initial resuscitation can have a significant impact on occurrence and severity BPD. Current delivery room resuscitation for intubated preterm infants focuses on pressure limited ventilation (PLV), however, rapidly changing pulmonary compliance during the early newborn transition phase results in significant variability in the tidal volume provided to the infant, which in turn can lead to volutrauma, barotrauma and/or atelactetotrauma.

  • Respiratory Oscillations in Alveolar Oxygen Tension Measured in Arterial
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Respiratory oscillations in alveolar oxygen tension measured in arterial blood Received: 13 February 2017 Federico Formenti 1,2, Nikhil Bommakanti1, Rongsheng Chen1, John N. Cronin 2, Hanne Accepted: 20 June 2017 McPeak1, Delphine Holopherne-Doran3, Goran Hedenstierna 4, Clive E. W. Hahn1, Anders Published: xx xx xxxx Larsson5 & Andrew D. Farmery1 Arterial oxygen partial pressure can increase during inspiration and decrease during expiration in the presence of a variable shunt fraction, such as with cyclical atelectasis, but it is generally presumed to remain constant within a respiratory cycle in the healthy lung. We measured arterial oxygen partial pressure continuously with a fast intra-vascular sensor in the carotid artery of anaesthetized, mechanically ventilated pigs, without lung injury. Here we demonstrate that arterial oxygen partial pressure shows respiratory oscillations in the uninjured pig lung, in the absence of cyclical atelectasis (as determined with dynamic computed tomography), with oscillation amplitudes that exceeded 50 mmHg, depending on the conditions of mechanical ventilation. These arterial oxygen partial pressure respiratory oscillations can be modelled from a single alveolar compartment and a constant oxygen uptake, without the requirement for an increased shunt fraction during expiration. Our results are likely to contribute to the interpretation of arterial oxygen respiratory oscillations observed during mechanical ventilation in the acute respiratory distress syndrome. In the healthy lung, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) is thought to remain almost constant within the respiratory cycle during spontaneous breathing, via a physiological PO2 gradient between the alveoli and the pul- 1 monary circulation . Respiratory PaO2 oscillations smaller than 16 mmHg have been detected with slow response 2 −1 time sensors in animals with uninjured lungs when abnormally large tidal volumes (VT) greater than 20 ml kg or even 30 ml kg−1 were delivered during mechanical ventilation3, 4.

  • Mechanical Ventilation Guidelines
    Newborn Critical Care Center (NCCC) Clinical Guidelines Conventional Mechanical Ventilation (CMV) BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation is not a cure to underlying illness, but instead can be a lifesaving therapy which supports infants with respiratory failure while the underlying disease process resolves. Conventional mechanical ventilation and high frequency ventilation (HFV) are invasive therapies available for management of respiratory failure, while continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), high flow and low flow nasal cannula and oxyhood are examples of noninvasive therapies available for management of respiratory distress. Clinicians should provide infants with the appropriate level of respiratory support to ensure optimal oxygenation and ventilation while simultaneously minimizing injury. Providing infants with inadequate respiratory support may result in morbidity due to hypoxemia, hypercarbia and/or atelectotrauma, while providing infants with extraneous respiratory support may result in morbidity due to hyperoxia, hypocarbia, barotrauma and/or volutrauma. INDICATIONS Respiratory failure secondary to severe respiratory acidosis, hypoxemia or apnea Anticipated respiratory failure, such as immediately prior to a surgical procedure or with significant cardiovascular compromise Severe metabolic acidosis with concern for impending respiratory failure PHYSIOLOGY Ventilation (CO2): o Minute ventilation is the product of respiratory rate (RR) and tidal volume (Vt) 푉̇ = 푅푅 푥 푉푇 o Ventilation is, therefore, increased by increasing the RR or Vt. Oxygenation (O2): o Is dependent on the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) and the recruitment of lung tissue to participate in gas exchange, which is dependent on mean airway pressure (MAP) o Oxygenation is increased by increasing the MAP within limits imposed by lung mechanics and by increasing the FiO2. The MAP is most effectively increased by increasing PEEP, but may also be increased by increasing the inspiratory time (Ti) and peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), if in a pressure mode.

  • High Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation Anaesthesia Tutorial of the Week 261
    Sign up to receive ATOTW weekly - email [email protected] HIGH FREQUENCY OSCILLATORY VENTILATION ANAESTHESIA TUTORIAL OF THE WEEK 261 28TH MAY 2012 Dr Sarah Jarvis, Mrs Karen Burt and Dr William English Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust, Cornwall, UK QUESTIONS Before continuing, try to answer the following true/false questions. The answers can be found in the text and are provided at the end of the article. 1. When compared to conventional ventilation for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is associated with a reduction in mortality rate. 2. In HFOV both inspiration and expiration are active processes. 3. Mean airway pressure (MAWP) is characteristically lower in HFOV compared to conventional ventilation. 4. Respiratory rates of up to 600 breaths per minute may be employed in HFOV. 5. Increasing frequency (respiratory rate) of HFOV is associated with a fall in arterial CO2 concentration. 6. Sudden loss of chest wiggle factor may indicate total airway obstruction. INTRODUCTION High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an alternative form of mechanical ventilation that can be delivered on critical care units. Unlike conventional ventilation (CV), HFOV relies on the rapid delivery of tidal volumes that are smaller than dead space. Typical tidal volumes on HFOV are 1-3 ml/kg. HFOV has been successfully used in neonates and paediatrics since 1983. Studies have shown higher survival rates for patients in these groups with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).1, 2 However, the evidence base for the use of HFOV in adults is limited. To date, studies have shown HFOV is safe and equivalent to CV in adult patients with ARDS, but no mortality benefit has been demonstrated.
