PRotective vEntilation with veno-venouS lung assisT in respiratory failure: A protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial of extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal in patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure.

ABSTRACT: One of the few interventions to demonstrate improved outcomes for acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure is reducing tidal volumes when using mechanical ventilation, often termed lung protective ventilation. Veno-venous extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (vv-ECCO₂R) can facilitate reducing tidal volumes. pRotective vEntilation with veno-venouS lung assisT (REST) is a randomised, allocation concealed, controlled, open, multicentre pragmatic trial to determine the clinical and cost-effectiveness of lower tidal volume mechanical ventilation facilitated by vv-ECCO₂R in patients with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure. Patients requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation for acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure will be randomly allocated to receive either vv-ECCO₂R and lower tidal volume mechanical ventilation or standard care with stratification by recruitment centre. There is a need for a large randomised controlled trial to establish whether vv-ECCO₂R in acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure can allow the use of a more protective lung ventilation strategy and is associated with improved patient outcomes.

Project description:IntroductionLow-flow veno-venous extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) is an adjunctive therapy to support lung protective ventilation or maintain spontaneous breathing in hypercapnic respiratory failure. Low-flow ECCO2R is less invasive compared to higher flow systems, while potentially compromising efficiency and membrane lifetime. To counteract this shortcoming, a high-longevity system has recently been developed. Our hypotheses were that the novel membrane system provides runtimes up to 120 h, and CO2 removal remains constant throughout membrane system lifetime.MethodsSeventy patients with pH ≤ 7.25 and/or PaCO2 ≥9 kPa exceeding lung protective ventilation limits, or experiencing respiratory exhaustion during spontaneous breathing, were treated with the high-longevity ProLUNG system or in a control group using the original gas exchanger. Treatment parameters, gas exchanger runtime, and sweep-gas VCO2 were recorded across 9,806 treatment-hours and retrospectively analyzed.Results25/33 and 23/37 patients were mechanically ventilated as opposed to awake spontaneously breathing in both groups. The high-longevity system increased gas exchanger runtime from 29 ± 16 to 48 ± 36 h in ventilated and from 22 ± 14 to 31 ± 31 h in awake patients (p < 0.0001), with longer runtime in the former (p < 0.01). VCO2 remained constant at 86 ± 34 mL/min (p = 0.11). Overall, PaCO2 decreased from 9.1 ± 2.0 to 7.9 ± 1.9 kPa within 1 h (p < 0.001). Tidal volume could be maintained at 5.4 ± 1.8 versus 5.7 ± 2.2 mL/kg at 120 h (p = 0.60), and peak airway pressure could be reduced from 31.1 ± 5.1 to 27.5 ± 6.8 mbar (p < 0.01).ConclusionUsing a high-longevity gas exchanger system, membrane lifetime in low-flow ECCO2R could be extended in comparison to previous systems but remained below 120 h, especially in spontaneously breathing patients. Extracorporeal VCO2 remained constant throughout gas exchanger system runtime and was consistent with removal of approximately 50% of expected CO2 production, enabling lung protective ventilation despite hypercapnic respiratory failure.

Project description:ObjectivesThere are few studies of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in immunocompromised patients assisted by veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO). The present study is aimed to investigate the pathogen-detected effect and clinical therapy value of mNGS technologies in immunocompromised patients assisted by vv-ECMO.MethodsOur study retrospectively enrolled 46 immunocompromised patients supported by vv-ECMO from Jan 2017 to June 2021 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, respectively. Patients were divided into the deterioration group (Group D) (n = 31) and improvement group (Group I) (n = 15) according to their outcomes. Baseline characteristics and etiological data of patients during hospitalization of 2 groups were compared. The pathogens detected by mNGS and antibiotic regimens guided by mNGS in immunocompromised patients assisted by vv-ECMO were analyzed.ResultsCompared with Group I, the deterioration patients showed a higher percentage of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (32.3% vs. 6.7%, p < 0.01) and were significantly older (47.77 ± 16.72 years vs. 32 ± 15.05 years, p < 0.01). Within 48 h of being ECMO assisted, the consistency of the samples detected by traditional culture and mNGS at the same time was good (traditional culture vs. mNGS detection, the positive rate of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) culture: 26.1% vs. 30.4%; the positive rate of blood sample culture: 12.2% vs. 12.2%, p > 0.05). However, mNGS detected far more pathogen species and strains than conventional culture (30 strains vs. 78 strains, p < 0.01); the most popular pathogen was Klebsiella pneumoniae. Parts of patients had their antibiotic treatment adjustments, and the improvement patients showed less usage of broad-spectrum antibiotics.ConclusionsmNGS may play a relatively important role in detecting mixed pathogens and personalized antibiotic treatment in immunocompromised patients assisted by vv-ECMO.

Project description:BackgroundUltra-lung-protective ventilation may be useful during veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to minimize ventilator-induced lung injury and to facilitate lung recovery. The objective was to compare pulmonary and systemic biotrauma evaluated by numerous biomarkers of inflammation, epithelial, endothelial injuries, and lung repair according to two ventilator strategies on vv-ECMO.MethodsThis is a prospective randomized controlled study. Patients were randomized to receive during 48 h either ultra-lung-protective ventilation combining very low tidal volume (1-2 mL/kg of predicted body weight), low respiratory rate (5-10 cycles per minute), positive expiratory transpulmonary pressure, and 16 h of prone position or lung-protective-ventilation which followed the ECMO arm of the EOLIA trial (control group).ResultsThe primary outcome was the alveolar concentrations of interleukin-1-beta, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, surfactant protein D, and blood concentrations of serum advanced glycation end products and angiopoietin-2 48 h after randomization. Enrollment was stopped for futility after the inclusion of 39 patients. Tidal volume, respiratory rate, minute ventilation, plateau pressure, and mechanical power were significantly lower in the ultra-lung-protective group. None of the concentrations of the pre-specified biomarkers differed between the two groups 48 h after randomization. However, a trend to higher 60-day mortality was observed in the ultra-lung-protective group compared to the control group (45 vs 17%, p = 0.06).ConclusionsDespite a significant reduction in the mechanical power, ultra-lung-protective ventilation during 48 h did not reduce biotrauma in patients with vv-ECMO-supported ARDS. The impact of this ventilation strategy on clinical outcomes warrants further investigation. Trial registration Clinical trial registered with www.Clinicaltrialsgov ( NCT03918603 ).
