Recent evidence suggests that the presence of EFL is associated with an increase in mortality, at least in acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) patients, and in pulmonary complications in patients undergoing surgery. EFL is a major cause of intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEPi), which in ARDS patients is heterogeneously distributed, with a consequent increase of ventilation/perfusion mismatch and reduction of arterial oxygenation. Airway collapse is frequently concomitant to the presence of EFL.When airways close and reopen during tidal ventilation, abnormally high stresses are generated that can damage the bronchiolar epithelium and uncouple small airways from the alveolar septa, possibly generating the small airways abnormalities detected at autopsy in ARDS. Finally, the high stresses and airway distortion generated downstream the choke points may contribute to parenchymal injury, but this possibility is still unproven. PEEP application can abolish EFL, decrease PEEPi heterogeneity, and limit recruitment/derecruitment.Whether increasing PEEP up to EFL disappearance is a useful criterion for PEEP titration can only be determined by future studies.展开更多

This study was conducted to compare the lower and higher PEEP in patients with ARDS ventilated with low tidal volume, to investigate the relationship between the recruited lung volume by higher PEEP and relevant independent variables and to provide a bedside estimate of the percentage of potentially recruitable lung by higher PEEP. Methods Twenty-four patients with ARDS were studied. A lung recruiting maneuver was performed, then each patient was ventilated with PEEP of 8 cmH20 for 4 hours and subsequently with PEEP of 16 cmH20 for 4 hours. At the end of each PEEP level period, gas exchange, hemodynamic data, lung mechanics, stress index "b" of the dynamic pressure-time curve, intrinsic PEEP and recruited volume by PEEP were measured. Results Fourteen patients were recruiters whose alveolar recruited volumes induced by PEEP 16 cmH20 were (425_+65) ml and 10 patients were non-recruiters. Compared with the PEEP 8 cmH20 period, after the application of the PEEP 16 cmH20, the PaO2/FiO2 ratio and static lung compliance both remained unchanged in non-recruiters, whereas they increased significantly in recruiters. Changes in PaO2/FiO2 and static lung compliance after PEEP increase were independently associated with the alveolar recruitment. Analyzing the relationship between recruiting maneuver (RM)-induced change in end-expiratory lung volume and the alveolar recruitment induced by PEEP, we found a notable correlation. Conclusions The results of this study indicated that the potential for alveolar recruitment might vary among the ARDS population and the higher PEEP levels should be limited to recruiters. Improving in PaO2/FiO2, static lung compliance after PEEP increase and the shape of the pressure-time curve could be helpful for PEEP application.展开更多

First, static intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEPi,st) was measured when PEEPe was zero, and the PEEPi,st was called PEEPi,stz. PEEPe at 0%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 100% of PEEPi,stz, respectively, were applied randomly. Respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics, and oxygen dynamics were recorded 30 minutes after the level of PEEPe was changed.Results When PEEPe was not higher than 80% of PEEPi,stz, no measurement changed significantly. When PEEPe was increased to 90% and 100% of PEEPi,stz, PEEPi,st, peak inspiratory pressure, plateau pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and central venous pressure increased significantly, P<0.01. Cardiac output and left ventricular work index decreased significantly, P<0.01. Oxygen delivery decreased significantly, P<0.05. When PEEPe was increased to 100% of PEEPi,stz, the right ventricular work index decreased significantly, P<0.05.Conclusion Eighty percent of PEEPi,stz was the upper limit of PEEPe. The results of the two methods used to set the level of PEEPe were identical.展开更多

A Bicore CP-100 pulmonary monitor (Bicore Monitoring System, USA) was used for monitoring respiratory mechanics. First, dynamic intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEPi,dyn) was measured when PEEPe was zero, which was called PEEPi,dynz. Then the PEEPe was set randomly at 0%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% of PEEPi,dynz respectively. Pulmonary mechanics and other parameters (heart rate, blood pressure and blood gas analysis) were measured 30 minutes after the level of PEEPe was changed.Results Work of breathing patient (WOBp), pressure time product, difference of esophageal pressure and PEEPi,dyn decreased significantly when PEEPe was applied, and continued decreasing as PEEPe was increased. Work of breathing ventilator increased significantly when PEEPe was increased to 80% and 100% of PEEPi,dynz. Significantly positive linear correlation was found between the changes in WOBp and in PEEPi,dyn.Conclusions WOBp decreases gradually as PEEPe is increased. WOBp decreases by narrowing the difference between the alveolus pressure and the central airway pressure at the end of expiration when PEEPe is applied.展开更多

It is hypothesized that the stabilization of collapsible alveoli during expiration contributes to lung protection. However, this hypothesis came from analysis of indirect indices like the analysis of the pressure-volume curve of the lung. The purpose of this study was to investigate isolated healthy and injured rat lungs by means of alveolar microscopy, in which combination of PEEP and VT is beneficial with respect to alveolar stability (I-E%). Methods Alveolar stability was investigated in isolated, non-perfused mechanically ventilated rat lungs. Injured lungs were compared with normal lungs. For both groups three PEEP settings (5, 10, 20 cmH20) were combined with three VT settings (6, 10, 15 ml/kg) resulting in nine PEEP-VT combinations per group. Analysis was performed by alveolar microscopy. Results In normal lungs alveolar stability persisted in all PEEP-VT combinations (I-E% (3.2±11.0)%). There was no significant difference using different settings (P 〉0.01). In contrast, alveoli in injured lungs were extremely instable at PEEP levels of 5 cmH20 (mean I-E% 100%) and 10 cmH2O (mean I-E% (30.7±16.8)%); only at a PEEP of 20 cmH20 were alveoli stabilized (mean I-E% of (0.2±9.3)%). Conclusions In isolated healthy lungs alveolar stability is almost unaffected by different settings of PEEP and VT. In isolated injured lungs only a high PEEP level of 20 cmH2O resulted in stabilized alveoli whereas lower PEEP levels are associated with alveolar instability.展开更多

A Bicore CP-100 pulmonary monitor (Bicore Monitoring System, USA) was used for monitoring respiratory mechanics. First, dynamic intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEPi,dyn) was measured when PEEPe was zero, which was called PEEPi,dynz.

Work of breathing ventilator increased significantly when PEEPe was increased to 80% and 100% of PEEPi,dynz. Significantly positive linear correlation was found between the changes in WOBp and in PEEPi,dyn.Conclusions WOBp decreases gradually as PEEPe is increased. WOBp decreases by narrowing the difference between the alveolus pressure and the central airway pressure at the end of expiration when PEEPe is applied.
