ABSTRACT
Objective Vibration response imaging (VRI) has been applied to the bedside monitoring of critically ill patients. The purpose of this study was to explore the value of VRI in assessing lung recruitment in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods We prospectively studied the clinical data on 20 cases of ARDS treated in our Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine from January 2015 to June 2017. The positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of the patients was increased from 5 and 15 cm H2O, the mean grey value of the max energy frame of VRI was determined, the quantitative lung data (QLD) were obtained, and the correlation of the VRI image with the recruited lung volume and oxygenation index was analyzed. Results The patients with PEEP at 15 cm H2O, in comparison with those with PEEP at 5 cm H2O, showed a significantly decreased mean gray value of the max energy frame of VRI (169.1 ± 11.3 vs 175.1 ± 15.9, P = 0.04), increased gray area ([56.3 ± 4.4]% vs [52.7 ± 7.5]%, P < 0.05), declined QLD in the upper left and left middle regions (P < 0.05) and elevated in the lower left and lower right regions (P < 0.05). With the PEEP at 15 cm H2O, the mean gray value of VRI was increased by -5.6 ± 12.8, negatively correlated with the recruited lung volume (r = -0.785, P < 0.01), and the gray area increased (3.8 ± 4.8)%, positively correlated with the recruited lung volume (r =0.793, P < 0.01). With PEEP at 5 and 15 cm H2O, the oxygenation indexes were (116.3 ± 25.6) mmHg and (116.3 ± 25.6) mmHg, respectively, the improvement rate of which correlated negatively with the increased mean gray value of VRI (r = -0.740, P < 0.01) but positively with the gray area (r = 0.581, P < 0.01). Conclusion Lung recruitment can be adequately estimated with bedside VRI in patients with ARDS.
