ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy and side effects of three recruitment maneuvers (RM) for severe extra-pulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome ( ARDS). Methods A total of sixty-three extra-pulmonary ARDS patients were enrolled and randomly divided into three groups, which were treated with sustained inflation (SI),increment of positive end-expiratory pressure (IP) and pressure control ventilation (PCV) respectively. The oxygenation index ( PaO2/FiO2) before and after lung recruitment was recorded in patients with complete lung recruitment,and the cause of discontinuation of lung recruitment was recorded in patients with incomplete lung recruitment. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was recorded in patients who completed lung recruitment with the latter two methods when they reached the maximum degree of lung recruitment. The mortality rate of 14 d in 3 groups was recorded, and the clinical characteristics and prognosis differences were compared before and after each group. Results With PaO2/FiO2as the standard, all the three methods of pulmonary reexpansion could make the lungs obviously reexpanse. The PaO2/FiO2of each group before, 5 minutes after and 1 hour after reexpansion were respectively as below (SI group: 70. 4±14. 8 mmHg,306. 8±97. 5 mmHg,229. 6±116. 2 mmHg; IP group:74. 9±13. 6 mmHg,328. 0 ± 95. 5 mmHg,252. 8 ± 111. 0 mmHg; PCV group: 67. 8 ± 14. 9 mmHg, 304. 2 ±82. 2 mmHg,223. 7±83. 6 mmHg. P＜0. 01). There were no significant differences among the three methods in the effect of RM (P＞0. 05). PEEP of IP group is higher than that of PCV group at the time of maximum RM (20. 3±2. 5 cmH2O vs. 18. 5±1. 8 cmH2O,P＜0. 05). There were significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions caused by the three methods (54. 5%(12/22) in SI group,35. 0%(7/20) in IP group and 9. 6%(2/21) in PCV group. The 14 d mortality of each group was 63. 6%(14/22) in SI group,70. 0%(14/20) in IP group and 61. 9%(13/21) in PCV group,with no significant difference (P＞0. 05) . Conclusion The effects of three methods of lung recruitment on severe pulmonary exogenous ARDS patients were similar, but there was no significant difference in prognosis. Adverse reactions of SI method leads to the greatest probability of discontinuation of lung recruitment,and that of the PCV method is the smallest. Under the same effect of lung recruitment, IP method needs higher PEEP than PCV method. In practice,PCV method should be preferred.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the lung protective effect of sustained inflation(SI)and its mechanism for exogenous acute lung injury(ALI) animal models. Methods Exogenous acute lung injury animal models were replicated using intravenous injection of oleic acid. Immunohistochemis?try and double antibody sandwich ELISA were carried out to detect IL?10 and IL?6 protein levels in lung tissues and serum. Western blot was used to detect the expression level of SP?A in lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF). The expression of ICAM?1 and SP?A mRNA in lung tis?sue was measured by reverse transcription PCR. The apoptosis of lung tissue cells was detected by flow cytometry. Results The maintenance of 20 s lung recruitment method of 35 cmH2O pressure could improve PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2,reduce PaCO2,and improve oxygenation and pulmonary com?pliance. The re?expansion effect of sustained inflation for exogenous acute lung injury was good. The IL?10 and IL?6 levels in lung tissue and serum for SI group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05). The SP?A expression level of lung tissue and BALF in SI group was significantly reduced compared with the control group(P<0.05). Flow cytometry analysis showed that the apoptosis rate of SI group was significant?ly higher than that of the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Sustained inflation played an important role in lung protection against exogenous ALI through inhibition of apoptosis,lightening of inflammatory response,reduction of pulmonary edema and SP?A degradation in lung tissue,as well as promotion of SP?A synthesis and secretion in pulmonary alveolus.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of different degrees of pressure of sustained inflation (SI) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after lung recruitment as the result of different negative pressure for sputum aspiration.Methods A prospective single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. The factorial analysis of variance was adopted. 150 patients with ARDS admitted to the emergency intensive care unit (ICU) of Chongqing Three Gorges Central Hospital from January 2012 to December 2014 were enrolled, and they were randomly divided into S1, S2, S3 group, with 50 patients in each group, suction pressure varying from 150, 175, to 200 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) was respectively used in each group. Then the patients of each group were randomly subdivided into five subgroups of P0, P1, P2, P3, P4, with 10 patients in each group, and 0, 30, 35, 40, and 45 cmH2O (1 cmH2O = 0.098 kPa) were used for control pulmonary inflation pressure, respectively. The respiratory mechanics and the hemodynamic parameters were recorded, and they were compared before and after the sputum aspiration as well as lung recruitment with sustained inflation.Results The lung recruitment volume (mL: 87.56±28.47 vs. 109.38±34.63, t = 3.573,P = 0.001) and lung static compliance [Cst ( mL/cmH2O): 27.69±13.25 vs. 35.87±17.47,t = 2.814,P = 0.004] after sputum aspiration in the 150 patients were significantly lower than those before the sputum aspiration, and peak airway pressure [PIP (cmH2O): 24.16±8.28 vs. 18.63±6.67,t = 2.957,P = 0.005], airway plateau pressure [Pplat (cmH2O): 21.28±9.14 vs. 17.47±7.26,t = 2.089,P = 0.032], and mean airway pressure [Pm (cmH2O): 13.26±4.65 vs. 10.41±3.54,t = 3.271,P = 0.001] were significantly higher than those before the treatment. There were no significant differences in the lung recruitment volume, Cst, PIP, Pplat and Pm between groups with different negative pressure for sputum aspiration (F value was 0.809, 0.986, 1.121, 0.910, 1.043, andP value was 0.452, 0.381, 0.335, 0.410, 0.361), but statistical significance was found among different groups of different lung recruitment pressures (F value was 3.581, 5.028, 3.064, 3.036, 4.050, andP value was 0.013, 0.002, 0.026, 0.027, 0.007). There was no interaction between the two factors. After pairwise comparison, under the same negative pressure for sputum aspiration, lung recruitment volume and Cst in different lung recruitment pressures subgroups (P1, P2, P3, P4) were significantly higher than those of P0 subgroup, and PIP, Pplat, and Pm were significantly lower than those of P0 subgroup. There was no significant difference among P1, P2, P3 and P4 groups. There were no significant differences in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) among different groups with negative pressures for sputum aspiration and different lung recruitment pressures (negative pressure for sputum aspiration:F = 0.586,P = 0.561,F= 1.373,P = 0.264; lung recruitment pressure:F = 1.313,P = 0.280,F= 1.621,P = 0.186), there was no interaction between the two factors (F = 0.936,P = 0.497,F = 1.391,P = 0.227). The difference of heart rate (HR) in different negative pressure for sputum aspiration groups was not significant (F = 1.144,P = 0.328), and there were significant differences in different lung recruitment pressure groups (F = 3.297,P = 0.019), there was no interaction between the two factors (F = 1.277, P = 0.280). After pairwise comparison, under the same negative pressure for sputum aspiration, HR in P3 and P4 subgroups was significantly higher than that in P0, P1, and P2 subgroups (allP< 0.05).Conclusion 30 cmH2O and 35 cmH2O were the suitable pressure for SI in ARDS patients, and they were not affected by different negative pressure for sputum aspiration.

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects and side effects of three different recruitment maneuvers (RM) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by extrapulmonary disease.Methods Forty-four patients of extrapulmonary ARDS, according to crossover design methods, were undergone three RM in different periods, including sustained inflation (SI), increase progressively positive end expiratory pressure (IP), pressure control ventilation (PCV). Heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), oxygenation index, lung compliance were recorded before and after RM, and were analyzed for statistical analysis. Results Oxygenation index and lung compliance were increased obviously in a short time after RM, improvement of IP method were better more obviously than the other two methods [1 h oxygenation index after RM:227 ± 42 vs 190 ± 19,186 ± 21; lung compliance:(59.4±12.5 ) ml/cm H2O(1 cm H2O = 0.098 kPa) vs (50.1 ± 9.3 ), (49.7 ± 10.6) ml/cm H2O;P＜ 0.05], 2h after RM,there were no statistical difference among the three methods (P＞0.05). After RM,HR and CVPwere increased, MAP was decreased in a short time, changes of SI method were smaller than the other two inethods [10 min HR after RM: (94.0±10.3 ) beats/min vs (116.0 ± 14.8 ), ( 107.0 ± 5.7 ) beats/min; CVP:(13.7±3.1 )cm H2O vs ( 18.4 ± 6.7 ), ( 15.4 ± 2.7 )cm H2O; MAP: ( 87.0 ± 12.1 ) mm Hg( 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) vs (73.0 ± 4.8), (81.0 ± 6.6) mm Hg;P＜ 0.05), 20 min after RM, there were no statistical difference among the three methods (P＞ 0.05). Conclusion When extrapulmonary ARDS undergo RM ,IP method is the most effective on increasing oxygenation index and lung compliance, SI method has the smallest side effect on hemodynamics.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of sustained inflation (SI) combined with small tidal volume ventilation on lung recruitment and hemodynamics in patients with acute lung injury (ALI). Methods Patients with severe trauma followed by ALI were selected for this study. Patients underwent small tidal volume ventilation (baseline) for 1 h and then SI with 20 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 1), 30 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 2), 40 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 3) and 50 cm H 2O?30 s(SI 4) for 1 h, respectively. Parameters of pulmonary mechanics and hemodynamics were measured at 1 h after baseline, SI and returning baseline, respectively. Results Compared with those of the baseline, no changes of parameters were found after SI 1 and SI 2, but EELV and Cst increased significantly after SI 3 and SI 4. Paw, PAP and PVRI decreased significantly after SI 3 and SI 4. After SI interruption, all the physiological variables returned to baseline. SI had no significant effect on HR, AP and CI. Conclusion Treatment with SI combined with small tidal volume ventilation in patients with ALI can provide lung recruitment and improve lung compliance, but it has no significant side effect on hemodynamics.
