ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the improvement of postoperative pulmonary function and oxygen partial pressure during general anesthesia for open abdominal surgery with lung protective ventilation strategies and alveolar recruitment maneuvers. Methods Seventy patients who underwent selective open abdominal surgery were selected, and they were divided into standard ventilation group (tidal volume 8 ml/kg) and protective ventilation group (tidal volume 6 ml/kg, 5 cmH2O positive end-expiratory pressure, and alveolar recruitment maneuvers, 1 cmH2O=0.098 kPa) according to the random digits table method with 35 cases each. The airway pressure, blood pressure, pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2), end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2) and adverse reactions were observed. The SpO2, partial pressure of O2 (PaO2) and pulmonary function before surgery and 1, 3, 5 d after surgery were measured. Results The respiratory rate, airway pressure and PETCO2 levels in protective ventilation group were significantly higher than those in standard ventilation group: (12.3 ± 2.1) times/min vs. (10.2 ± 1.0) times/min, (15.1 ± 2.8) cmH2O vs. (13.5 ± 2.3) cmH2O, (34.6 ± 2.1) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. (32.1 ± 1.4) mmHg, and there were statistical differences (P0.05). The SpO2 and PaO2 levels at 1, 3 d after surgery in protective ventilation group were significantly higher than those in standard ventilation group:0.951 ± 0.018 vs. 0.936 ± 0.016 and 0.964 ± 0.018 vs. 0.949 ± 0.018, (74.8 ± 6.8) mmHg vs. (65.0 ± 6.2) mmHg and (79.6 ± 6.0) mmHg vs. (70.6 ± 5.3) mmHg, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), percentage of the estimated value of FEV1, forced vital capacity (FVC) and percentage of the estimated value of FVC at 1, 3 and 5 d after surgery in protective ventilation group were significantly higher than those in standard ventilation group, the FEV1/FVC at 1 d after surgery was significantly higher than that in standard ventilation group, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Conclusions The lung protective ventilation strategy and alveolar recruitment maneuvers can improve the postoperative pulmonary function and oxygen partial pressure during general anesthesia for abdominal surgery. Low vital volume, appropriate positive end-expiratory pressure and recruitment maneuvers can protect the lung in general anesthesia patients.
ABSTRACT
Recently,alveolar recruitment maneuver is one of effective management of mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.Recruitment maneuvers are widely used in clinical practice to open the lung and prevent lung injury by derecruitment,improving the compliance,increasing PaO2,increasing the PaO2/FiO2 ratio,and reducing the pulmonary shunt fraction,although the evidence is still discussed.This review discussed recruitment maneuvers in pediatric patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.
ABSTRACT
Introducción: En los últimos años las maniobras de reclutamiento alveolar (MR) han despertado un interés creciente por su potencial beneficio en la protección pulmonar y se han ido introduciendo en la práctica clínica. Objetivo: Describir y analizar los conocimientos sobre las MR y su aplicación en siete Unidades de Cuidado Intensivo de la ciudad de Cali - Colombia. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal, con una muestra intencional de 64 profesionales que laboran en siete Unidades de Cuidado Intensivo de Cali y aplican las MR. La encuesta auto-administrada constaba de trece preguntas y el periodo de aplicación fue de dos meses. Resultados: De los 64 encuestados el 77,8% sigue una guía o protocolo para realizar las MR; el 54,7% utiliza durante la MR un nivel de Presión Positiva al Final de la Espiración (PEEP) ideal que asegure una saturación > de 90% y PaO2 > de 60 mmHg; el 42,1% acepta presiones en la vía aérea entre 35 y 50 cmH2O; el 48,4% realiza las MR con aumento progresivo de la PEEP y bajo volumen corriente. Conclusiones: Se encontró heterogeneidad en las respuestas relacionadas con el conocimiento de las MR. No existe en la actualidad un consenso acerca de cuál es la forma más eficaz y segura de aplicar una MR. Este estudio puede ser el punto de partida para un llamado de atención a la revisión de los conocimientos, competencias y habilidades que se requieren para realizar las MR.
Introduction: For the past years, alveolar recruitment maneuvers (RM) have originated a growing interest due to their beneficial potential in pulmonary protection, and have been introduced in clinical practice. Objective: Describe and analyze the knowledge of the MR and its application in seven intensive care units in the city of Cali, Colombia. Method and materials: Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study with an intentional sample of 64 professionals working in seven intensive care units and apply MR. The self-completed survey was made up of thirteen questions, and the application period was two months. Results: To perform RM, of 64 professionals survey, 77.8% of the healthcare providers that were polled follow a protocol guide, in which 54.7% answered that during RM the ideal Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is the one which maintains a saturation > 90% and a PaO2 > 60 mmHg; 42.1% tolerates airway pressures between 35 and 50 cmH2O; 48.4% perform RM with a progressive increase of the PEEP and a low tidal volume. Conclusions: Regarding the knowledge related to RM, heterogeneity was found in the answers. There is currently no consensus about which is the most effective and secure way to implement an MR. This study can be the starting point to create awareness towards the revision of knowledge, capacities and abilities that are required to perform RM.
