Key Messages Purpose of review To evaluate home noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) in adults with chronic respiratory failure in terms of initiation, continuation, effectiveness, adverse events, equipment parameters and required respiratory services. Devices evaluated were home mechanical ventilators (HMV), bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP) devices, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices. Key messages • In patients with COPD, home NIPPV as delivered by a BPAP device (compared to no device) was associated with lower mortality, intubations, hospital admissions, but no change in quality of life (low to moderate SOE). NIPPV as delivered by a HMV device (compared individually with BPAP, CPAP, or no device) was associated with fewer hospital admissions (low SOE). In patients with thoracic restrictive diseases, HMV (compared to no device) was associated with lower mortality (low SOE).

  • 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.

    UTMB RESPIRATORY CARE SERVICES Policy 7.3.53 PROCEDURE - Mechanical Ventilation Page 1 of 5 Mechanical Ventilation Effective: 10/26/95 Formulated: 11/78 Revised: 04/11/18 Mechanical Ventilation Purpose Mechanical Artificial Ventilation refers to any methods to deliver volumes of gas into a patient's lungs over an extended period of time to remove metabolically produced carbon dioxide. It is used to provide the pulmonary system with the mechanical power to maintain physiologic ventilation, to manipulate the ventilatory pattern and airway pressures for purposes of improving the efficiency of ventilation and/or oxygenation, and to decrease myocardial work by decreasing the work of breathing. Scope Outlines the procedure of instituting mechanical ventilation and monitoring. Accountability • Mechanical Ventilation may be instituted by a qualified licensed Respirator Care Practitioner (RCP). • To be qualified the practitioner must complete a competency based check off on the ventilator to be used. • The RCP will have an understanding of the age specific requirements of the patient. Physician's Initial orders for therapy must include a mode (i.e. mandatory Order Ventilation/Assist/Control, pressure control etc., a Rate, a Tidal Volume, and an Oxygen concentration and should include a desired level of Positive End Expiratory Pressure, and Pressure Support if applicable. Pressure modes will include inspiratory time and level of pressure control. In the absence of a complete follow up order reflecting new ventilator changes, the original ventilator settings will be maintained in compliance with last order until physician is contacted and the order is clarified. Indications Mechanical Ventilation is generally indicated in cases of acute alveolar hypoventilation due to any cause, acute respiratory failure due to any cause, and as a prophylactic post-op in certain patients.

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.

  • Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury and Implications for Clinical Management
    Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury and Implications for Clinical Management C. EDIBAM Department of Critical Care Medicine, Flinders Medical Centre, Adelaide, SOUTH AUSTRALIA ABSTRACT Objective: To review recent studies in pathogenesis and management of ventilator-induced lung injury. Data sources: Articles and published reviews on ventilator-induced lung injury, barotrauma and acute lung injury. Summary of review: This review summarises the important differences between clinically apparent ‘barotrauma’ and the more subtle changes in lung structure and function associated with ventilation. 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.
