Abstract Background Assessing measurement error in alveolar recruitment on computed tomography (CT) is of paramount importance to select a reliable threshold identifying patients with high potential for alveolar recruitment and to rationalize positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) setting in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The aim of this study was to assess both intra- and inter-observer smallest real difference (SRD) exceeding measurement error of recruitment using both human and machine learning-made lung segmentation (i.e., delineation) on CT. This single-center observational study was performed on adult ARDS patients. CT were acquired at end-expiration and end-inspiration at the PEEP level selected by clinicians, and at end-expiration at PEEP 5 and 15 cmH2O. Two human observers and a machine learning algorithm performed lung segmentation. Recruitment was computed as the weight change of the non-aerated compartment on CT between PEEP 5 and 15 cmH2O. Results Thirteen patients were included, of whom 11 (85%) presented a severe ARDS. Intra- and inter-observer measurements of recruitment were virtually unbiased, with 95% confidence intervals (CI95%) encompassing zero. The intra-observer SRD of recruitment amounted to 3.5 [CI95% 2.4–5.2]% of lung weight. The human–human inter-observer SRD of recruitment was slightly higher amounting to 5.7 [CI95% 4.0–8.0]% of lung weight, as was the human–machine SRD (5.9 [CI95% 4.3–7.8]% of lung weight). Regarding other CT measurements, both intra-observer and inter-observer SRD were close to zero for the CT-measurements focusing on aerated lung (end-expiratory lung volume, hyperinflation), and higher for the CT-measurements relying on accurate segmentation of the non-aerated lung (lung weight, tidal recruitment…). The average symmetric surface distance between lung segmentation masks was significatively lower in intra-observer comparisons (0.8 mm [interquartile range (IQR) 0.6–0.9]) as compared to human–human (1.0 mm [IQR 0.8–1.3] and human–machine inter-observer comparisons (1.1 mm [IQR 0.9–1.3]). Conclusions The SRD exceeding intra-observer experimental error in the measurement of alveolar recruitment may be conservatively set to 5% (i.e., the upper value of the CI95%). Human–machine and human–human inter-observer measurement errors with CT are of similar magnitude, suggesting that machine learning segmentation algorithms are credible alternative to humans for quantifying alveolar recruitment on CT.

Abstract Background Although high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) improves gas exchange, concerns remain about tissue overdistension caused by the oscillations and consequent lung damage. We compared a modified percussive ventilation modality created by superimposing high-frequency oscillations to the conventional ventilation waveform during expiration only (eHFPV) with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) and standard HFPV. Methods Hypoxia and hypercapnia were induced by decreasing the frequency of CMV in New Zealand White rabbits (n = 10). Following steady-state CMV periods, percussive modalities with oscillations randomly introduced to the entire breathing cycle (HFPV) or to the expiratory phase alone (eHFPV) with varying amplitudes (2 or 4 cmH2O) and frequencies were used (5 or 10 Hz). The arterial partial pressures of oxygen (PaO2) and carbon dioxide (PaCO2) were determined. Volumetric capnography was used to evaluate the ventilation dead space fraction, phase 2 slope, and minute elimination of CO2. Respiratory mechanics were characterized by forced oscillations. Results The use of eHFPV with 5 Hz superimposed oscillation frequency and an amplitude of 4 cmH2O enhanced gas exchange similar to those observed after HFPV. These improvements in PaO2 (47.3 ± 5.5 vs. 58.6 ± 7.2 mmHg) and PaCO2 (54.7 ± 2.3 vs. 50.1 ± 2.9 mmHg) were associated with lower ventilation dead space and capnogram phase 2 slope, as well as enhanced minute CO2 elimination without altering respiratory mechanics. Conclusions These findings demonstrated improved gas exchange using eHFPV as a novel mechanical ventilation modality that combines the benefits of conventional and small-amplitude high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, owing to improved longitudinal gas transport rather than increased lung surface area available for gas exchange.

Within the pulmonary acini ventilation and blood perfusion are brought together on a huge surface area separated by a very thin blood-gas barrier of tissue components to allow efficient gas exchange. During ventilation pulmonary acini are cyclically subjected to deformations which become manifest in changes of the dimensions of both alveolar and ductal airspaces as well as the interalveolar septa, composed of a dense capillary network and the delicate tissue layer forming the blood-gas barrier. These ventilation-related changes are referred to as micromechanics. In lung diseases, abnormalities in acinar micromechanics can be linked with injurious stresses and strains acting on the blood-gas barrier. The mechanisms by which interalveolar septa and the bloodgas barrier adapt to an increase in alveolar volume have been suggested to include unfolding, stretching, or changes in shape other than stretching and unfolding. Folding results in the formation of pleats in which alveolar epithelium is not exposed to air and parts of the blood-gas barrier are folded on each other. The opening of a collapsed alveolus (recruitment) can be considered as an extreme variant of septal wall unfolding. Alveolar recruitment can be detected with imaging techniques which achieve light microscopic resolution. Unfolding of pleats and stretching of the blood-gas barrier, however, require electron microscopic resolution to identify the basement membrane. While stretching results in an increase of the area of the basement membrane, unfolding of pleats and shape changes do not. Real time visualization of these processes, however, is currently not possible. In this review we provide an overview of septal wall micromechanics with focus on unfolding/folding as well as stretching. At the same time we provide a state-of-the-art design-based stereology methodology to quantify microarchitecture of alveoli and interalveolar septa based on different imaging techniques and design-based stereology.

- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Laparoscopic bariatric surgery is frequently associated with disturbances in respiratory mechanics. An alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is a strategy to overcome such respiratory conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ARM+PEEP on intraoperative and postoperative respiratory and hemodynamic parameters of patients with laparoscopic bariatric surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery between 2009 and 2016 were retrospectively evaluated. The study sample was divided into four groups based on PEEP values and the presence of ARM: Group PEEP 5 (5 cm H2O PEEP only), Group PEEP 5/RM (5 cm H2O PEEP plus ARM), Group PEEP 10 (10 cm H2O PEEP only), Group PEEP 10/RM (10 cm H2O PEEP plus ARM). Patients’ demographic characteristics, ventilatory, respiratory, and oxygenation parameters were recorded. Oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2 ) was the study’s primary outcome. RESULTS: There were 156, 158, 299, and 210 patients in Groups PEEP 5, PEEF 5/RM, PEEP 10, and PEEP 10/RM, respectively. Tidal volume, driving tidal volume/compliance, PaO2, PaO2/FiO2, and PaCO2 were significantly lower in Groups PEEP 5 and PEEP 5/RM, whereas SpO2 and FiO2 were significantly higher in Groups PEEP 5 and PEEP 5/RM (p<0.05). Patients in Group PEEP 5 had significantly higher end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2 ) values than those of other groups (p<0.001). Patients in Group PEEP 5/RM had significantly higher SpO2 values than those in Group PEEP 5 (p<0.001). Rate of postoperative atelectasis was significantly higher in Group PEEP 5/RM compared to the other groups (p=0.011). CONCLUSIONS: A PEEP level of at least 10 cm H2O with ARM improved intraoperative respiratory parameters and caused a significant reduction in postoperative atelectasis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare the effects of a sustained inflation alveolar recruiting maneuver (ARM) followed by 5 cmH2O of PEEP and a stepwise ARM, in dogs undergoing laparoscopic surgery.Materials and methodsTwenty adult dogs were enrolled in this prospective randomized clinical study. Dogs were premedicated with methadone intramuscularly (IM); anesthesia was induced with propofol intravenously (IV) and maintained with inhaled isoflurane in pure oxygen. The baseline ventilatory setting (BVS) was as follows: tidal volume of 15 mL/kg, inspiratory pause of 25%, inspiratory to expiratory ratio of 1:2, and the respiratory rate to maintain the end-tidal carbon dioxide between 45 and 55 mmHg. 10 min after pneumoperitoneum, randomly, 10 dogs underwent sustained inflation ARM followed by 5 cmH2O of PEEP (ARMi), while 10 dogs underwent a stepwise recruitment maneuver followed by the setting of the “best PEEP” (ARMc). Gas exchange, respiratory system mechanics, and hemodynamic were evaluated before the pneumoperitoneum induction (BASE), 10 min after the pneumoperitoneum (PP), 10 min after the recruitment (ARM), and 10 min after the pneumoperitoneum resolution (PostPP). Statistical analysis was performed with the ANOVA test (p < 0.05).ResultsStatic compliance decreased in both groups at PP (ARMc = 1.35 ± 0.21; ARMi = 1.16 ± 0.26 mL/cmH2O/kg) compared to BASE (ARMc = 1.78 ± 0.60; ARMi = 1.66 ± 0.66 mL/cmH2O/kg) and at ARM (ARMc = 1.71 ± 0.41; ARMi = 1.44 ± 0.84 mL/cmH2O/kg) and PostPP (ARMc = 1.75 ± 0.45; ARMi = 1.89 ± 0.59 mL/cmH2O/kg), and it was higher compared to PP and similar to BASE. The PaO2/FiO2, in both groups, was higher at ARM (ARMc = 455.11 ± 85.90; ARMi = 505.40 ± 31.70) and PostPP (ARMc = 521.30 ± 66.20; ARMi = 450.90 ± 70.60) compared to PP (ARMc = 369.53 ± 49.31; ARMi = 394.32 ± 37.72).Conclusion and clinical relevanceThe two ARMs improve lung function in dogs undergoing laparoscopic surgery similarly. Application of PEEP at the end of the ARMs prolonged the effects of the open-lung strategy.

During laparoscopic surgery, the role of PEEP to improve outcome is controversial. Mechanistically, PEEP benefits depend on the extent of alveolar recruitment, which prevents ventilator-induced lung injury by reducing lung dynamic strain. The hypotheses of this study were that pneumoperitoneum-induced aeration loss and PEEP-induced recruitment are inter-individually variable, and that the recruitment-to-inflation ratio (R/I) can identify patients who benefit from PEEP in terms of strain reduction. Sequential study. Operating room. Seventeen ASA I-III patients receiving robot-assisted prostatectomy during Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum. Patients underwent end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and respiratory/lung/chest wall mechanics (esophageal manometry and inspiratory/expiratory occlusions) assessment at PEEP = 0 cmH 2 O before and after pneumoperitoneum, at PEEP = 4 and 12 cmH 2 O during pneumoperitoneum. Pneumoperitoneum-induced derecruitment and PEEP-induced recruitment were assessed through a simplified method based on multiple pressure-volume curve. Dynamic and static strain changes were evaluated. R/I between 12 and 4 cmH 2 O was assessed from EELV. Inter-individual variability was rated with the ratio of standard deviation to mean (CoV). Pneumoperitoneum reduced EELV by (median [IqR]) 410 mL [80–770] (p < 0.001) and increased dynamic strain by 0.04 [0.01–0.07] (p < 0.001), with high inter-individual variability (CoV = 70% and 88%, respectively). Compared to PEEP = 4 cmH 2 O, PEEP = 12 cmH 2 O yielded variable amount of recruitment (139 mL [96–366] CoV = 101%), causing different extent of dynamic strain reduction (median decrease 0.02 [0.01–0.04], p = 0.002; CoV = 86%) and static strain increases (median increase 0.05 [0.04–0.07], p = 0.01, CoV = 33%). R/I (1.73 [0.58–3.35]) estimated the decrease in dynamic strain (p ≤0.001, r = −0.90) and the increase in static strain (p = 0.009, r = −0.73) induced by PEEP, while PEEP-induced changes in respiratory and lung mechanics did not. Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum yields variable derecruitment: PEEP capability to revert these phenomena varies significantly among individuals. High R/I identifies patients in whom higher PEEP mostly reduces dynamic strain with limited static strain increases, potentially allowing individualized settings. • Optimal PEEP for laparoscopy is debated. Aeration loss and recruitment vary among patients, warranting personalized settings. • IIn this study, 17 patients undergoing robot-assisted prostatectomy during Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum were studied. • Pneumoperitoneum variably reduced FRC. PEEP 12 cmH 2 0 yielded variable recruitment, leading to diverse effects on lung strain. • EELV-derived R/I well reflected the effect of PEEP on lung strain, identifying patients benefiting the most from higher PEEP.

ABSTRACTBackground: Lung atelectasis is a common complication post-cardiac surgery that can affect patient’s outcomes significantly. The current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transalveolar pressure measurement (PTA) using esophageal manometer as a monitoring parameter during a modified stepwise staircase lung recruitment employing adaptive ventilation mode (AVM) in postcardiac surgery hypoxic patients.Settings and Design: This study was a prospective case series study.Methods: The study was carried out on 62 adult patients who were undergone on-pump cardiac surgeries. After haemodynamic stabilization of the patient in ICU, esophageal manometer catheter had been inserted then a modified stepwise staircase alveolar recruitment maneuver was done with the use of the transalveolar pressure as the main parameter for the monitoring of the effectiveness and safety of the recruitment maneuver. Agreement between parameters was done and weighted kappa, standard error and confidence intervals at 95% (95% CI) were calculated.Results: During the alveolar recruitment maneuver, the PTA Insp detected 96.7% of the patients with alveolar overdistention and the PTA Exp detected 98.3% of the patients with alveolar optimum PEEP. Statistical significant improvement in both hypoxic index and ultrasound lung aeration score from before to after alveolar recruitment.Conclusion: Transalveolar pressure inspiratory and expiratory were accurate monitoring parameters for alveolar overdistention and optimum PEEP detection selectively.Abbreviations: ALI: Acute lung injury; ARDS: Adult respiratory distress syndrome; AVM: Adaptive ventilation mode; Cdyn: Compliance Dynamic; ETT: Endotracheal tube; IBW: Ideal body weight; ICU: Intensive care unit; MBP: Mean blood pressure; MVTarget:Minute volume target; PEEP: Positive end expiratory pressure; PES: Esophageal pressure; PLimit: Pressure limit; PPL: Pleural pressure; PTA: Transalveolar pressure measurement; PTA Exp: Expiratory transalveolar pressure; PTA Insp: Inspiratory transalveolar pressure; RM: Recruitment maneuvers; SpO2: Percutaneous Oxygen saturation

Background:The effect of prone positioning (PP) on respiratory mechanics remains uncertain in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).Methods:We prospectively analyzed the effects of PP on respiratory mechanics from continuous data with over a thousand time points during 16-h PP sessions in patients with COVID-19 and ARDS under VV-ECMO conditions. The evolution of respiratory mechanical and oxygenation parameters during the PP sessions was evaluated by dividing each PP session into four time quartiles: first quartile: 0–4 h, second quartile: 4–8 h, third quartile: 8–12 h, and fourth quartile: 12–16 h.Results:Overall, 38 PP sessions were performed in 10 patients, with 3 [2–5] PP sessions per patient. Seven (70%) patients were responders to at least one PP session. PP significantly increased the PaO2/FiO2 ratio by 14 ± 21% and compliance by 8 ± 15%, and significantly decreased the oxygenation index by 13 ± 18% and driving pressure by 8 ± 12%. The effects of PP on respiratory mechanics but not on oxygenation persisted after supine repositioning. PP-induced changes in different respiratory mechanical parameters and oxygenation started as early as the first-time quartile, without any difference in PP-induced changes among the different time quartiles. PP-induced changes in driving pressure (−14 ± 14 vs. −6 ± 10%, p = 0.04) and mechanical power (−11 ± 13 vs. −0.1 ± 12%, p = 0.02) were significantly higher in responders (increase in PaO2/FiO2 ratio > 20%) than in non-responder patients.Conclusions:In patients with COVID-19 and severe ARDS, PP under VV-ECMO conditions improved the respiratory mechanical and oxygenation parameters, and the effects of PP on respiratory mechanics persisted after supine repositioning.

Abstract Background Whether respiratory physiology of COVID-19-induced respiratory failure is different from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) of other etiologies is unclear. We conducted a single-center study to describe respiratory mechanics and response to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in COVID-19 ARDS and to compare COVID-19 patients to matched-control subjects with ARDS from other causes. Methods Thirty consecutive COVID-19 patients admitted to an intensive care unit in Rome, Italy, and fulfilling moderate-to-severe ARDS criteria were enrolled within 24 h from endotracheal intubation. Gas exchange, respiratory mechanics, and ventilatory ratio were measured at PEEP of 15 and 5 cmH2O. A single-breath derecruitment maneuver was performed to assess recruitability. After 1:1 matching based on PaO2/FiO2, FiO2, PEEP, and tidal volume, COVID-19 patients were compared to subjects affected by ARDS of other etiologies who underwent the same procedures in a previous study. Results Thirty COVID-19 patients were successfully matched with 30 ARDS from other etiologies. At low PEEP, median [25th–75th percentiles] PaO2/FiO2 in the two groups was 119 mmHg [101–142] and 116 mmHg [87–154]. Average compliance (41 ml/cmH2O [32–52] vs. 36 ml/cmH2O [27–42], p = 0.045) and ventilatory ratio (2.1 [1.7–2.3] vs. 1.6 [1.4–2.1], p = 0.032) were slightly higher in COVID-19 patients. Inter-individual variability (ratio of standard deviation to mean) of compliance was 36% in COVID-19 patients and 31% in other ARDS. In COVID-19 patients, PaO2/FiO2 was linearly correlated with respiratory system compliance (r = 0.52 p = 0.003). High PEEP improved PaO2/FiO2 in both cohorts, but more remarkably in COVID-19 patients (p = 0.005). Recruitability was not different between cohorts (p = 0.39) and was highly inter-individually variable (72% in COVID-19 patients and 64% in ARDS from other causes). In COVID-19 patients, recruitability was independent from oxygenation and respiratory mechanics changes due to PEEP. Conclusions Early after establishment of mechanical ventilation, COVID-19 patients follow ARDS physiology, with compliance reduction related to the degree of hypoxemia, and inter-individually variable respiratory mechanics and recruitability. Physiological differences between ARDS from COVID-19 and other causes appear small.

Abstract Background Although the intraoperative alveolar recruitment maneuver (RM) efficiently treats atelectasis, the effect of Fio 2 on atelectasis during RM is uncertain. We hypothesized that a high Fio 2 (1.0) during RM would lead to a higher degree of postoperative atelectasis without benefiting oxygenation when compared to low Fio 2 (0.4). Methods In this randomized controlled trial, patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position were allocated to low- (Fio 2 0.4, n = 44) and high-Fio 2 (Fio 2 1.0, n = 46) groups. RM was performed 1-min post tracheal intubation and post changes in supine and Trendelenburg positions during surgery. We set the intraoperative Fio 2 at 0.4 for both groups and calculated the modified lung ultrasound score (LUSS) to assess lung aeration after anesthesia induction and at surgery completion. The primary outcome was modified LUSS at the end of the surgery. The secondary outcomes were the intra- and postoperative Pao 2 to Fio 2 ratio and postoperative pulmonary complications. Results The modified LUSS before capnoperitoneum and RM (P = 0.747) were similar in both groups. However, the postoperative modified LUSS was significantly lower in the low Fio 2 group (median difference 5.0, 95% CI 3.0–7.0, P

Early mobilization has become an important aspect of treatment in intensive care medicine, especially in patients with acute pulmonary dysfunction. As its effects on regional lung physiology have not been fully explored, we conceived a prospective observational study (Registration number: DRKS00023076) investigating regional lung function during a 15-min session of early mobilization physiotherapy with a 30-min follow-up period. The study was conducted on 20 spontaneously breathing adult patients with impaired pulmonary gas exchange receiving routine physical therapy during their intensive care unit stay. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) was applied to continuously monitor ventilation distribution and changes in lung aeration during mobilization and physical therapy. Baseline data was recorded in the supine position, the subjects were then transferred into the seated and partly standing position for physical therapy. Afterward, patients were transferred back into the initial position and followed up with EIT for 30 min. EIT data were analyzed to assess changes in dorsal fraction of ventilation (%dorsal), end-expiratory lung impedance normalized to tidal variation (ΔEELI), center of ventilation (CoV) and global inhomogeneity index (GI index).Follow-up was completed in 19 patients. During exercise, patients exhibited a significant change in ventilation distribution in favor of dorsal lung regions, which did not persist during follow-up. An identical effect was shown by CoV. ΔEELI increased significantly during follow-up. In conclusion, mobilization led to more dorsal ventilation distribution, but this effect subsided after returning to initial position. End-expiratory lung impedance increased during follow-up indicating a slow increase in end-expiratory lung volume following physical therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

LUNG volume , *ADULT respiratory distress syndrome , *POSITIVE end-expiratory pressure , *COMPUTED tomography - Abstract
Background: Personalizing mechanical ventilation requires the development of reliable bedside monitoring techniques. The multiple-breaths nitrogen washin–washout (MBNW) technique is currently available to measure end-expiratory lung volume (EELVMBNW), but the precision of the technique may be poor, with percentage errors ranging from 28 to 57%. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the reliability of a novel MBNW bedside system using fast mainstream sensors to assess EELV in an experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) model, using computed tomography (CT) as the gold standard. The secondary aims of the study were: (1) to evaluate trending ability of the novel system to assess EELV; (2) to evaluate the reliability of estimated alveolar recruitment induced by positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) changes computed from EELVMBNW, using CT as the gold standard. Results: Seven pigs were studied in 6 experimental conditions: at baseline, after experimental ARDS and during a decremental PEEP trial at PEEP 16, 12, 6 and 2 cmH2O. EELV was computed at each PEEP step by both the MBNW technique (EELVMBNW) and CT (EELVCT). Repeatability was assessed by performing replicate measurements. Alveolar recruitment between two consecutive PEEP levels after lung injury was measured with CT (VrecCT), and computed from EELV measurements (VrecMBNW) as ΔEELV minus the product of ΔPEEP by static compliance. EELVMBNW and EELVCT were significantly correlated (R2 = 0.97). An acceptable non-constant bias between methods was identified, slightly decreasing toward more negative values as EELV increased. The conversion equation between EELVMBNW and EELVCT was: EELVMBNW = 0.92 × EELVCT + 36. The 95% prediction interval of the bias amounted to ± 86 mL and the percentage error between both methods amounted to 13.7%. The median least significant change between repeated measurements amounted to 8% [CI95%: 4–10%]. EELVMBNW adequately tracked EELVCT changes over time (concordance rate amounting to 100% [CI95%: 87%–100%] and angular bias amounting to − 2° ± 10°). VrecMBNW and VrecCT were significantly correlated (R2 = 0.92). A non-constant bias between methods was identified, slightly increasing toward more positive values as Vrec increased. Conclusions: We report a new bedside MBNW technique that reliably assesses EELV in an experimental ARDS model with high precision and excellent trending ability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: The effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) depends closely on the potential for lung recruitment. Bedside assessment of lung recruitability is crucial for personalized lung-protective mechanical ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. Methods: We developed a transoesophageal lung ultrasound (TE-LUS) method in which a quantitative (computer-assisted) grayscale determination served as a guide to PEEP-induced lung recruitment. The method is based on the following hypothesis: when the PEEP increases, inflation of the recruited alveoli leads to significant changes in the air/water ratio. Normally ventilated areas are hypoechoic because the ultrasound waves are weakly reflected while poorly aerated areas or non-aerated areas are hyperechoic. We calculated the TE-LUS re-aeration score (RAS) as the ratio of the mean gray scale level at low PEEP to that value at high PEEP for the lower and upper lobes. A RAS > 1 indicated an increase in ventilated area. We used this new method to detect changes in ventilation in patients with a low (<0.5) vs. high (≥0.5) recruitment-to-inflation (R/I) ratio (i.e., the ratio between the recruited lung compliance and the respiratory system compliance at low PEEP). Results: We included 30 patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS. In patients with a high R/I ratio, the TE-LUS RAS was significantly higher in the lower lobes than in the upper lobes (1.20 [1.12–1.63] vs. 1.05 [0.89–1.38]; p = 0.05). Likewise, the TE-LUS RAS in the lower lobes was significantly higher in the high R/I group than in the low R/I group (1.20 [1.12–1.63] vs. 1.07 [1.00–1.20]; p = 0.04). Conclusion: The increase in PEEP induces a substantial gain in the ventilation detected by TE-LUS of poorly or non-aerated lower lobes (dependent lung regions), especially in patients with a high R/I ratio.

To determine the specific lung elastance (SE L) in anesthetized dogs and to evaluate the efficacy of a SE L -based recruiting airway pressure (RP aw) at improving global and regional lung aeration. Retrospective and prospective clinical study. A total of 28 adult dogs were included in the retrospective study and six adult dogs in the prospective study. Retrospective study: SE L and SE L -based RP aw were determined using previously published data. In mechanically ventilated dogs undergoing thoracic computed tomography (CT), SE L was calculated as Δ P L /(V T /EELV), where Δ P L is the driving transpulmonary pressure, V T is the tidal volume and EELV is the end-expiratory lung volume. The ratio of lung to respiratory system elastance (E L /E rs) was determined. SE L and E L /E rs were used to calculate the SE L -based RP aw. Prospective study: dogs underwent thoracic CT at end-expiration and at end-inspiration using the SE L -based RP aw , and global and regional aeration was determined. For analysis of regional aeration, lungs were divided into cranial, intermediate and caudal regions. Regional compliance was also calculated. A p value <0.05 was considered significant. The SE L and E L /E rs were 12.7 ± 3.1 cmH 2 O and 0.54 ± 0.07, respectively. The SE L -based RP aw was 29.1 ± 7.6 cmH 2 O. In the prospective study, the RP aw was 28.2 ± 1.3 cmH 2 O. During RP aw , hyperinflation increased (p = 0.0003) whereas poorly aerated (p < 0.0001) and nonaerated (p = 0.01) tissue decreased. Normally aerated tissue did not change (p = 0.265). Regional compliance was higher in the intermediate (p = 0.0003) and caudal (p = 0.034) regions compared with the cranial region. Aeration did not differ between regions (p > 0.05). An SE L -based RP aw reduces poorly and nonaerated lung tissue in anesthetized dogs. In nonsurgical anesthetized dogs, an RP aw near 30 cmH 2 O is effective at improving lung aeration.

Background and Aims: Recruitment maneuvers may be used during anesthesia as part of perioperative protective ventilation strategy. However, the hemodynamic effect of recruitment maneuvers remain poorly documented in this setting. Material and Methods: This was a prospective observational study performed in operating theatre including patients scheduled for major vascular surgery. Patients were monitored with invasive arterial pressure and esophageal doppler. After induction of general anesthesia, before surgery began, preload optimization based on stroke volume (SV) variation following fluid challenge was performed. Then, an alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) through stepwise increase in positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) was performed. Hemodynamic data were noted before, during, and after the alveolar recruitment maneuver. Results: ARM through stepwise increase in PEEP and CPAP were applied in 22 and 14 preload independent patients, respectively. Relative changes in SV during ARMs were significantly greater in the ARMCPAPgroup (-39 ± 20%) as compared to the ARMPEEPgroup (-15 ± 22%; P= 0.002). The difference (95% CI) in relative decrease in SV between ARMCPAPand ARMPEEPgroups was -24% (-38 to -9; P= 0.001). Changes in arterial pressure, cardiac index, pulse pressure variation, peak velocity, and corrected flow time measures were not different between groups. Conclusion: During anesthesia, in preload independent patients, ARMs through CPAP resulted in a significantly greater decrease in SV than stepwise increase in PEEP. During anesthesia, ARM should be used cautiously.

BACKGROUND: Early mobilization during critical illness is safe and has beneficial effects on functional outcomes. However, its impact on pulmonary function has not been thoroughly explored. We hypothesized that a sitting position out of bed coupled with exercise could result in an improvement in oxygenation and lung aeration. METHODS: The study was conducted on a cohort of adult subjects within a week of their admission to an ICU. Subjects were transferred to a chair and undertook a 15-min session of exercise, either active or passive. Subjects in the control group were only transferred to a chair. Electrical impedance tomography, a reliable bedside technique monitoring regional lung aeration and the distribution of ventilation, was continuously performed, and blood gases were assessed at baseline and 20 min post-exercise. RESULTS: The cohort included 40 subjects, 17 of whom were mechanically ventilated and 23 spontaneously breathing. The control group for each modality consisted of 5 mechanically ventilated or 5 spontaneously breathing subjects. Mild hypoxemia was present in 45% of the spontaneously breathing cohort, whereas the mechanically ventilated subjects demonstrated moderate (50%) or severe (12%) hypoxemia. Compared with the control group, early mobilization induced a significant increase in lung aeration. In mechanically ventilated subjects, lung aeration increased, especially in the anterior lung regions (mean impedance [95% CI]: T1 (baseline in bed) = 1,265 [691-1,839]; T2 (chair sitting) = 2,003 [1,042-2,963]; T3 (exercise) = 1,619 [810 2,427]; T4 (post exercise in chair) = 2,320 [1,186-3,455]). In spontaneously breathing subjects, lung aeration increased mainly in the posterior lung regions (mean impedance [95% CI]: T1 = 380 [124-637]; T2 = 655 [226-1,084]; T3 = 621 [335-906]; T4 = 600 [340-860]). PaO
2 /FIO2 increased, especially in subjects with lower PaO2 /FIO2 at baseline (< 200) (133 ± 31 to 158 ± 48, P = .041). CONCLUSIONS: For critically ill subjects, a sitting position and exercise increased lung aeration and were associated with an improvement in PaO2 /FIO2 in the more severely hypoxemic subjects.

- Abstract
Introduction: Pulmonary atelectasis is common in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia, which increases the risk of perioperative respiratory complications. Alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARM) are used to open up the lung parenchyma with atelectasis, although the duration of their benefit has not been clearly established. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of an ARM in laparoscopic colon surgery, the duration of response over time, and its haemodynamic impact., Methods: Twenty-five patients undergoing laparoscopic colon surgery were included. After anaesthetic induction and initiation of surgery with pneumoperitoneum, an ARM was performed, and then optimal PEEP determined. Respiratory mechanics and gas exchange variables, and haemodynamic parameters, were analysed before the manoeuvre and periodically over the following 90 min., Results: Three patients were excluded for surgical reasons. The alveolar arterial oxygen gradient went from 94.3 (62.3-117.8) mmHg before to 60.7 (29.6-91.0) mmHg after the manoeuvre (P < .05). This difference was maintained during the 90 min of the study. Dynamic compliance of the respiratory system went from 31.3 ml/cmH
2 O (26.1-39.2) before the manoeuvre to 46.1 ml/cmH2 O (37.5-53.5) after the manoeuvre (P < .05). This difference was maintained for 60 min. No significant changes were identified in any of the haemodynamic variables studied., Conclusion: In patients undergoing laparoscopic colon surgery, performing an intraoperative ARM improves the mechanics of the respiratory system and oxygenation, without associated haemodynamic compromise. The benefit of these manoeuvres lasts for at least one hour., (Copyright © 2023 Sociedad Española de Anestesiología, Reanimación y Terapéutica del Dolor. Publicado por Elsevier España, S.L.U.

Purpose: Recruitment of lung volume is often cited as the reason for using positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. We performed a systematic review on PEEP-induced recruited lung volume measured from inspiratory volume-pressure (VP) curves in ARDS patients to assess the prevalence of patients with PEEP-induced recruited lung volume and the mortality in recruiters and non-recruiters. Methods: We conducted a systematic search of PubMed to identify studies including ARDS patients in which the intervention of an increase in PEEP was accompanied by measurement of the recruited volume (Vrec increase versus no increase) using the VP curve in order to assess the relation between Vrec and mortality at ICU discharge. We first analysed the pooled data from the papers identified and then analysed individual patient level data received from the authors via personal contact. The risk of bias of the included papers was assessed using the quality in prognosis studies tool and the certainty of the evidence regarding the relationship of mortality to Vrec by the GRADE approach. Recruiters were defined as patients with a Vrec > 150 ml. A random effects model was used for the pooled data. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used for individual patient data. Results: We identified 16 papers with a total of 308 patients for the pooled data meta-analysis and 14 papers with a total of 384 patients for the individual data analysis. The quality of the articles was moderate. In the pooled data, the prevalence of recruiters was 74% and the mortality was not significantly different between recruiters and non-recruiters (relative risk 1.20 [95% confidence intervals 0.88–1.63]). The certainty of the evidence regarding this association was very low and publication bias evident. In the individual data, the prevalence of recruiters was 70%. In the multivariable logistic regression, Vrec was not associated with mortality but Simplified Acute Physiology Score II and driving pressure at PEEP of 5 cmH2O were. Conclusion: After a PEEP increment, most patients are recruiters. Vrec was not associated with ICU mortality. The presence of similar findings in the individual patient level analysis and the driving pressure at PEEP of 5 cmH2O was associated with mortality as previously reported validate our findings. Publication bias and the lack of prospective studies suggest more research is required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Behind armor blunt trauma (BABT) is a non-penetrating injury caused by the rapid deformation of body armor, by a projectile, which may in extreme circumstances cause death. Although there is not a high incidence of high energy BABT, the understanding of the mechanisms is still low, in relation to what is needed for safety threshold levels. BABT is also useful as a model for blunt thoracic trauma, with a compressive speed between traffic accidents and blast caused by explosives. High velocity projectile BABT causes severe hypoxia. The mechanisms are not fully known. We investigated the acute pulmonary consequences in the individual lungs, and the effects of alveolar recruitment. 12 swine (mean weight 62.5 kg) were randomized to groups BABT by 7.62 × 51 mm NATO-type bullets (mean velocity 803 m/s) to a military grade ceramic plate armor (n = 7) or control (n = 5). Modified double lumen tracheal tubes provided respiratory dynamics in the lungs separately/intermittently for two hours, with alveolar recruitment after one hour. Venous admixture increased 5 min after BABT (p <.05) and correlated with increased cardiac output. Static compliance decreased 5 minutes after BABT (p <.05) and further by recruitment (p <.005). Physiological dead space decreased 5 minutes after BABT (p <.01) and further by recruitment (p <.01), while not in the contralateral lung. V′A/Q′ decreased 5 minutes after BABT (p <.05), also shown in phase III volumetric capnography (p <.05). Most effects regressed after one hour. High velocity projectile BABT caused hypoxia by a severe and transient decrease in V′A/Q′ to <1 and increased venous admixture in the exposed lung. Alveolar recruitment was hemodynamically and respiratory tolerable and increased V′A/Q′. Body armor development should aim at ameliorating severe pulmonary consequences from high projectile velocities which also needs to include further understanding of how primary and secondary effects are distributed between the lungs.

Abstract Background High frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) combines diffusive (high frequency mini-bursts) and convective ventilation patterns. Benefits include enhanced oxygenation and hemodynamics, and alveolar recruitment, while providing hypothetic lung-protective ventilation. No study has investigated HFPV-induced changes in lung aeration in patients with early acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Eight patients with early non-focal ARDS were enrolled and five swine with early non-focal ARDS were studied in prospective computed tomography (CT) scan and animal studies, in a university-hospital tertiary ICU and an animal laboratory. Patients were optimized under conventional “open-lung” ventilation. Lung CT was performed using an end-expiratory hold (Conv) to assess lung morphology. HFPV was applied for 1 hour to all patients before new CT scans were performed with end-expiratory (HFPV EE) and end-inspiratory (HFPV EI) holds. Lung volumes were determined after software analysis. At specified time points, blood gases and hemodynamic data were collected. Recruitment was defined as a change in non-aerated lung volumes between Conv, HFPV EE and HFPV EI. The main objective was to verify whether HFPV increases alveolar recruitment without lung hyperinflation. Correlation between pleural, upper airways and HFPV-derived pressures was assessed in an ARDS swine-based model. Results One-hour HFPV significantly improved oxygenation and hemodynamics. Lung recruitment significantly rose by 12.0% (8.5–18.0%), P = 0.05 (Conv-HFPV EE) and 12.5% (9.3–16.8%), P = 0.003 (Conv-HFPV EI). Hyperinflation tended to increase by 2.0% (0.5–2.5%), P = 0.89 (Conv-HFPV EE) and 3.0% (2.5–4.0%), P = 0.27 (Conv-HFPV EI). HFPV hyperinflation correlated with hyperinflated and normally-aerated lung volumes at baseline: r = 0.79, P = 0.05 and r = 0.79, P = 0.05, respectively (Conv-HFPV EE); and only hyperinflated lung volumes at baseline: r = 0.88, P = 0.01 (Conv-HFPV EI). HFPV CT-determined tidal volumes reached 5.7 (1.1–8.1) mL.kg-1 of ideal body weight (IBW). Correlations between pleural and HFPV-monitored pressures were acceptable and end-inspiratory pleural pressures remained below 25cmH20. Conclusions HFPV improves alveolar recruitment, gas exchanges and hemodynamics of patients with early non-focal ARDS without relevant hyperinflation. HFPV-derived pressures correlate with corresponding pleural or upper airways pressures. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02510105. Registered on 1 June 2015.

Background: Although the intraoperative alveolar recruitment maneuver (RM) efficiently treats atelectasis, the effect of Fio2 on atelectasis during RM is uncertain. We hypothesized that a high Fio2 (1.0) during RM would lead to a higher degree of postoperative atelectasis without benefiting oxygenation when compared to low Fio2 (0.4). Methods: In this randomized controlled trial, patients undergoing elective laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position were allocated to low- (Fio2 0.4, n = 44) and high-Fio2 (Fio2 1.0, n = 46) groups. RM was performed 1-min post tracheal intubation and post changes in supine and Trendelenburg positions during surgery. We set the intraoperative Fio2 at 0.4 for both groups and calculated the modified lung ultrasound score (LUSS) to assess lung aeration after anesthesia induction and at surgery completion. The primary outcome was modified LUSS at the end of the surgery. The secondary outcomes were the intra- and postoperative Pao2 to Fio2 ratio and postoperative pulmonary complications. Results: The modified LUSS before capnoperitoneum and RM (P = 0.747) were similar in both groups. However, the postoperative modified LUSS was significantly lower in the low Fio2 group (median difference 5.0, 95% CI 3.0–7.0, P < 0.001). Postoperatively, substantial atelectasis was more common in the high-Fio2 group (relative risk 1.77, 95% CI 1.27–2.47, P < 0.001). Intra- and postoperative Pao2 to Fio2 were similar with no postoperative pulmonary complications. Atelectasis occurred more frequently when RM was performed with high than with low Fio2; oxygenation was not benefitted by a high-Fio2. Conclusions: In patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position, absorption atelectasis occurred more frequently with high rather than low Fio2. No oxygenation benefit was observed in the high-Fio2 group. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03943433. Registered 7 May 2019, [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Purpose: (1) To improve the accuracy of global and regional alveolar-recruitment quantification in CT scan pairs by accounting for lung-tissue displacements and deformation, (2) To propose a method for local-recruitment calculation. Methods: Recruitment was calculated by subtracting the quantity of non-aerated lung tissues between expiration and inspiration. To assess global recruitment, lung boundaries were first interactively delineated at inspiration, and then they were warped based on automatic image registration to define the boundaries at expiration. To calculate regional recruitment, the lung mask defined at inspiration was cut into pieces, and these were also warped to encompass the same tissues at expiration. Local-recruitment map was calculated as follows: For each voxel at expiration, the matching location at inspiration was determined by image registration, non-aerated voxels were counted in the neighborhood of the respective locations, and the voxel count difference was normalized by the neighborhood size. The methods were evaluated on 120 image pairs of 12 pigs with experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome. Results: The dispersion of global- and regional-recruitment values decreased when using image registration, compared to the conventional approach neglecting tissue motion. Local-recruitment maps overlaid onto the original images were visually consistent, and the sum of these values over the whole lungs was very close to the global-recruitment estimate, except four outliers. Conclusions: Image registration can compensate lung-tissue displacements and deformation, thus improving the quantification of alveolar recruitment. Local-recruitment calculation can also benefit from image registration, and its values can be overlaid onto the original image to display a local-recruitment map. They also can be integrated over arbitrarily shaped regions to assess regional or global recruitment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background and Aims: Recruitment maneuvers may be used during anesthesia as part of perioperative protective ventilation strategy. However, the hemodynamic effect of recruitment maneuvers remain poorly documented in this setting. Material and Methods: This was a prospective observational study performed in operating theatre including patients scheduled for major vascular surgery. Patients were monitored with invasive arterial pressure and esophageal doppler. After induction of general anesthesia, before surgery began, preload optimization based on stroke volume (SV) variation following fluid challenge was performed. Then, an alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) through stepwise increase in positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) was performed. Hemodynamic data were noted before, during, and after the alveolar recruitment maneuver. Results: ARM through stepwise increase in PEEP and CPAP were applied in 22 and 14 preload independent patients, respectively. Relative changes in SV during ARMs were significantly greater in the ARMCPAPgroup (-39 ± 20%) as compared to the ARMPEEPgroup (-15 ± 22%; P= 0.002). The difference (95% CI) in relative decrease in SV between ARMCPAPand ARMPEEPgroups was -24% (-38 to -9; P= 0.001). Changes in arterial pressure, cardiac index, pulse pressure variation, peak velocity, and corrected flow time measures were not different between groups. Conclusion: During anesthesia, in preload independent patients, ARMs through CPAP resulted in a significantly greater decrease in SV than stepwise increase in PEEP. During anesthesia, ARM should be used cautiously. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Impairment of pulmonary aeration is a frequent postoperative complication that is associated with adverse outcome. Diagnosis and quantification of impaired pulmonary aeration by CT scan is limited due to concern for exposure to ionizing radiation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) represents a potential radiation-free alternative for this use. We undertook an experimental study to validate the use of MRI to quantify pulmonary aeration impairment.Methods: Ten large white pigs were studied before intubation, after intubation, 2 h after non-protective mechanical ventilation and after intra-tracheal negative pressure suction to induce atelectasis. A lung CT scan immediately followed by a lung MRI were performed at all four time points. On the 40 CT images lung volumes corresponding to non-aerated, poorly aerated, normally aerated, and overinflated voxels were measured based on their radiodensity. Similarly, on the 40 MRI images lung volumes corresponding to non-aerated and aerated voxels were measured based on their signal intensity. The correlation between non-aerated lung by MRI vs., CT scans, and with PaO2/FiO2 measured at each of the four time points was assessed with the Pearson’ correlation coefficient, bias and limits of agreement.Results: Pearson correlation coefficient, bias and limits of agreements between the CT non-aerated lung volumes and MRI abnormal lung volumes were 0.88, -16 ml, and (-108, 77), respectively. Pearson correlation coefficient between PaO2/FiO2 and abnormal lung volumes measured with MRI was -0.60.Conclusion: In a preclinical swine model, quantitative measurements of pulmonary atelectasis by MRI-imaging are well correlated with the gold standard, i.e., densitometric scan CT measurements.

Background Personalizing mechanical ventilation requires the development of reliable bedside monitoring techniques. The multiple-breaths nitrogen washin–washout (MBNW) technique is currently available to measure end-expiratory lung volume (EELVMBNW), but the precision of the technique may be poor, with percentage errors ranging from 28 to 57%. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate the reliability of a novel MBNW bedside system using fast mainstream sensors to assess EELV in an experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) model, using computed tomography (CT) as the gold standard. The secondary aims of the study were: (1) to evaluate trending ability of the novel system to assess EELV; (2) to evaluate the reliability of estimated alveolar recruitment induced by positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) changes computed from EELVMBNW, using CT as the gold standard. Results Seven pigs were studied in 6 experimental conditions: at baseline, after experimental ARDS and during a decremental PEEP trial at PEEP 16, 12, 6 and 2 cmH2O. EELV was computed at each PEEP step by both the MBNW technique (EELVMBNW) and CT (EELVCT). Repeatability was assessed by performing replicate measurements. Alveolar recruitment between two consecutive PEEP levels after lung injury was measured with CT (VrecCT), and computed from EELV measurements (VrecMBNW) as ΔEELV minus the product of ΔPEEP by static compliance. EELVMBNW and EELVCT were significantly correlated (R2 = 0.97). An acceptable non-constant bias between methods was identified, slightly decreasing toward more negative values as EELV increased. The conversion equation between EELVMBNW and EELVCT was: EELVMBNW = 0.92 × EELVCT + 36. The 95% prediction interval of the bias amounted to ± 86 mL and the percentage error between both methods amounted to 13.7%. The median least significant change between repeated measurements amounted to 8% [CI95%: 4–10%]. EELVMBNW adequately tracked EELVCT changes over time (concordance rate amounting to 100% [CI95%: 87%–100%] and angular bias amounting to − 2° ± 10°). VrecMBNW and VrecCT were significantly correlated (R2 = 0.92). A non-constant bias between methods was identified, slightly increasing toward more positive values as Vrec increased. Conclusions We report a new bedside MBNW technique that reliably assesses EELV in an experimental ARDS model with high precision and excellent trending ability.

Objective To evaluate the effects of an alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) followed by 5 cmH 2 O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in dogs undergoing laparoscopy. Study design Prospective, randomized clinical study. Animals A group of 20 dogs undergoing laparoscopic ovariectomy. Methods Dogs were sedated with acepromazine and methadone intramuscularly; anesthesia was induced with propofol intravenously and maintained with inhaled isoflurane. The following baseline ventilatory setting (BVS) was administered: tidal volume of 12 mL kg –1 , inspiratory to expiratory ratio of 1:2, inspiratory pause 25% of inspiratory time, no PEEP and a respiratory rate to maintain end-tidal carbon dioxide tension between 5.3 and 7.3 kPa. Then, 10 minutes after the pneumoperitoneum, 10 dogs (RM) underwent a sustained inflation ARM followed by BVS plus 5 cmH 2 O PEEP, while 10 dogs (NO-RM) were left with BVS throughout the procedure. Gas exchange and respiratory system mechanics were evaluated before the pneumoperitoneum (PPpre), before ARM (PP10), 30 minutes later (PP30) and 20 minutes after pneumoperitoneum discontinuation (PPpost20). Data were analyzed using anova ( p < 0.05). Results The Fshunt at PP30 and PPpost20 was lower ( p < 0.001) in the RM (2.3 ± 2.2 and 4.7 ± 3.7%) than in the NO-RM (5.2 ± 2.1 and 11.1 ± 5.2%), and PaO 2 at PP30 and PPpost20 was higher ( p < 0.001) in the RM (67.3 ± 4.2 and 60.1 ± 9.4 kPa) than in the NO-RM (50.2 ± 7.4 and 45.5 ± 11.1 kPa). Static compliance of the respiratory system at PP30 and PPpost20 was greater ( p < 0.001) in the RM (2.4 ± 0.2 and 2.1 ± 0.4 mL cmH 2 O −1 kg –1 ) than in the NO-RM (0.9 ± 0.4 and 1.2 ± 0.2 mL cmH 2 O −1 kg –1 ). Conclusions and clinical relevance In dogs undergoing laparoscopy, ARM followed by 5 cmH 2 O PEEP improves gas exchange and respiratory system mechanics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Background: High frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) combines diffusive (high frequency mini-bursts) and convective ventilation patterns. Benefits include enhanced oxygenation and hemodynamics, and alveolar recruitment, while providing hypothetic lung-protective ventilation. No study has investigated HFPV-induced changes in lung aeration in patients with early acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods: Eight patients with early non-focal ARDS were enrolled and five swine with early non-focal ARDS were studied in prospective computed tomography (CT) scan and animal studies, in a university-hospital tertiary ICU and an animal laboratory. Patients were optimized under conventional "open-lung" ventilation. Lung CT was performed using an end-expiratory hold (Conv) to assess lung morphology. HFPV was applied for 1 hour to all patients before new CT scans were performed with end-expiratory (HFPV EE) and end-inspiratory (HFPV EI) holds. Lung volumes were determined after software analysis. At specified time points, blood gases and hemodynamic data were collected. Recruitment was defined as a change in non-aerated lung volumes between Conv, HFPV EE and HFPV EI. The main objective was to verify whether HFPV increases alveolar recruitment without lung hyperinflation. Correlation between pleural, upper airways and HFPV-derived pressures was assessed in an ARDS swine-based model.Results: One-hour HFPV significantly improved oxygenation and hemodynamics. Lung recruitment significantly rose by 12.0% (8.5-18.0%), P = 0.05 (Conv-HFPV EE) and 12.5% (9.3-16.8%), P = 0.003 (Conv-HFPV EI). Hyperinflation tended to increase by 2.0% (0.5-2.5%), P = 0.89 (Conv-HFPV EE) and 3.0% (2.5-4.0%), P = 0.27 (Conv-HFPV EI). HFPV hyperinflation correlated with hyperinflated and normally-aerated lung volumes at baseline: r = 0.79, P = 0.05 and r = 0.79, P = 0.05, respectively (Conv-HFPV EE); and only hyperinflated lung volumes at baseline: r = 0.88, P = 0.01 (Conv-HFPV EI). HFPV CT-determined tidal volumes reached 5.7 (1.1-8.1) mL.kg-1 of ideal body weight (IBW). Correlations between pleural and HFPV-monitored pressures were acceptable and end-inspiratory pleural pressures remained below 25cmH20.Conclusions: HFPV improves alveolar recruitment, gas exchanges and hemodynamics of patients with early non-focal ARDS without relevant hyperinflation. HFPV-derived pressures correlate with corresponding pleural or upper airways pressures.Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02510105 . Registered on 1 June 2015.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to establish the tomographic limit of lung overdistention in normal individuals as well as to assess positive end-expiratorypressure-induced overdistention and alveolar recruitment in patients with acute lung injury.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Lung distention was first determined in six healthy volunteers in whom computed tomographic sections were obtained at functionalresidual capacity and total lung capacity with a positive airway pressure of 30 cmH2O. Tomographic scans at zero end-expiratory pressure and positive end-expiratorypressure were performed in six patients with acute lung injury. Computed tomographies were performed from the apex to the diaphragm and lung volumes were quantified by the analysis of the density histograms.RESULTS: Analysis of the density histograms in healthy volunteers was monophasic with a peak at -791 ± 12 Housenfield units. In total lung capacity, lung volumeincreased by 79 ± 35% and the peak of lung density decreased to -886 ±26 Housenfield units. More than 70% of the increase in lung volume was located below-900 Housenfield units, suggesting that this value can be considered as the threshold separating normal aeration from overdistention. In patients with acute lung injury, atzero end-expiratory pressure the distribution of density histograms was either monophasic (n=3) or biphasic (n=3), with mean density of -319 ± 34 Housenfieldunits. With positive end-expiratory pressure application, lung volume increased by 47 ± 19%, while lung density decreased to -538 ± Housenfield units. Positive endexpiratory pressure induced a mean alveolar recruitment of 238 ±320 ml.CONCLUSIONS: The limit of overdistention in healthy individuals was -900 Housenfield units. This threshold can be used in patients with acute lung injury fordifferentiating alveolar recruitment from lung overdistention. OBJETIVO: O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar o limite tomográfico da hiperdistensão pulmonar em indivíduos normais, bem como avaliar o recrutamentoe a hiperdistensão pulmonares induzidos pela pressão expiratória final positiva em pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda.MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Inicialmente, o limite da hiperdistensão pulmonar foi determinado em seis voluntários sadios, nos quais tomografias computadorizadas espiraladas de tórax foram obtidas em capacidade residual funcional e em capacidadepulmonar total mais pressão positiva de 30 cm H2O. Posteriormente, foram avaliados seis pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda nos quais as tomografias foram obtidas em zero de pressão expiratória final positiva e em pressão expiratória final positiva. As tomografias computadorizadas foram realizadas do ápex ao diafragma, e os volumes pulmonares quantificados por análise dos histogramas de densidade.RESULTADOS: A análise dos histogramas de densidade em voluntários sadios em capacidade residual funcional mostrou histogramas monofásicos, com um pico em-791 + 12 UH. Em capacidade pulmonar total, o volume pulmonar aumentou em 79 + 35% e o pico das densidades pulmonares caiu para -886 + 26 UH. Mais de 70% do aumento no volume pulmonar foi localizado abaixo de -900 UH, sugerindo que este valor possa ser definido como o limite da hiperdistensão. Os pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda mostraram em zero de pressão expiratória final positiva uma distribuição monofásica (n=3) ou bifásica (n=3), com densidades pulmonares médias situadas em 319 + 34 UH. Com a aplicação de pressão expiratória final positiva, ovolume pulmonar aumentou em 47 + 19%, enquanto que as densidades pulmonares caíram para -538 + 171 UH. Pressão expiratória final positiva induziu um recrutamento alveolar de 320 + 160 ml e uma hiperdistensão de 238 + 320 ml.CONCLUSÕES: O limite de hiperdistensão em voluntários sadios foi de -900 UH. Este limite pode ser usado em pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda para diferenciarrecrutamento alveolar de hiperdistensão pressão expiratória final positiva induzidos.

This threshold can be used in patients with acute lung injury fordifferentiating alveolar recruitment from lung overdistention., OBJETIVO: O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar o limite tomográfico da hiperdistensão pulmonar em indivíduos normais, bem como avaliar o recrutamentoe a hiperdistensão pulmonares induzidos pela pressão expiratória final positiva em pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda.MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: Inicialmente, o limite da hiperdistensão pulmonar foi determinado em seis voluntários sadios, nos quais tomografias computadorizadas espiraladas de tórax foram obtidas em capacidade residual funcional e em capacidadepulmonar total mais pressão positiva de 30 cm H2O. Posteriormente, foram avaliados seis pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda nos quais as tomografias foram obtidas em zero de pressão expiratória final positiva e em pressão expiratória final positiva. As tomografias computadorizadas foram realizadas do ápex ao diafragma, e os volumes pulmonares quantificados por análise dos histogramas de densidade.RESULTADOS: A análise dos histogramas de densidade em voluntários sadios em capacidade residual funcional mostrou histogramas monofásicos, com um pico em-791 + 12 UH. Em capacidade pulmonar total, o volume pulmonar aumentou em 79 + 35% e o pico das densidades pulmonares caiu para -886 + 26 UH. Mais de 70% do aumento no volume pulmonar foi localizado abaixo de -900 UH, sugerindo que este valor possa ser definido como o limite da hiperdistensão. Os pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda mostraram em zero de pressão expiratória final positiva uma distribuição monofásica (n=3) ou bifásica (n=3), com densidades pulmonares médias situadas em 319 + 34 UH. Com a aplicação de pressão expiratória final positiva, ovolume pulmonar aumentou em 47 + 19%, enquanto que as densidades pulmonares caíram para -538 + 171 UH. Pressão expiratória final positiva induziu um recrutamento alveolar de 320 + 160 ml e uma hiperdistensão de 238 + 320 ml.CONCLUSÕES: O limite de hiperdistensão em voluntários sadios foi de -900 UH. Este limite pode ser usado em pacientes com lesão pulmonar aguda para diferenciarrecrutamento alveolar de hiperdistensão pressão expiratória final positiva induzidos.

BackgroundHypoxemia during one-lung ventilation (OLV) remains a major concern. The present study compared the effect of alveolar recruitment strategy (ARS) on arterial oxygenation during OLV at varying tidal volumes (Vt) with or without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP).MethodsIn total, 120 patients undergoing wedge resection by video assisted thoracostomy were randomized into four groups comprising 30 patients each: those administered a 10 ml/kg tidal volume with or without preemptive ARS (Group H and Group H-ARS, respectively) and those administered a 6 ml/kg tidal volume and a 8 cmH2O PEEP with or without preemptive ARS (Group L and Group L-ARS, respectively). ARS was performed using pressure-controlled ventilation with a 40 cmH2O plateau airway pressure and a 15 cmH2O PEEP for at least 10 breaths until OLV began.ResultsPreemptive ARS significantly improved the PaO2/FiO2 ratio compared to the groups that did not receive ARS (P < 0.05). The H-ARS group showed a highest PaO2/FiO2 ratio during OLV, the L-ARS and H groups showed similarly improved arterial oxygenation, which was significantly higher than in group L (P < 0.05). The plateau airway pressure in group H-ARS was significantly higher than in group L-ARS (P < 0.05).ConclusionsPreemptive ARS can improve arterial oxygenation during OLV. Furthermore, a 6 ml/kg tidal volume combined with 8 cmH2O PEEP after preemptive ARS may reduce the risk of pulmonary injury caused by high tidal volume during one-lung ventilation in patients with normal pulmonary function.

- Abstract
Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a pressure-limited, time-cycle assisted mechanical ventilation, which allows ventilatory efforts throughout the respiratory cycle through an exhalation valve. It has many advantages over conventional ventilation, including continuous alveolar recruitment, improved oxygenation, preservation of spontaneous breathing, improved hemodynamics and potential lung protective effects. This paper reviews the different methods proposed for APRV settings and summarizes the different studies related to this ventilatory modality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
