Association between hospital mortality and inspiratory airway pressures in mechanically ventilated patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome: a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Higher inspiratory airway pressures are associated with worse outcomes in mechanically ventilated patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This relationship, however, has not been well investigated in patients without ARDS. We hypothesized that higher driving pressures (?P) and plateau pressures (Pplat) are associated with worse patient-centered outcomes in mechanically ventilated patients without ARDS as well as those with ARDS. METHODS:Using data collected during a prospective, observational cohort study of 6179 critically ill participants enrolled in 59 ICUs across the USA, we used multivariable logistic regression to determine whether ?P and Pplat at enrollment were associated with hospital mortality among 1132 mechanically ventilated participants. We stratified analyses by ARDS status. RESULTS:Participants without ARDS (n?=?822) had lower average severity of illness scores and lower hospital mortality (27.3% vs. 38.7%; p?

Project description:BackgroundSome unanswered questions persist regarding the effectiveness of corticosteroids for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. We aimed to assess the clinical effect of corticosteroids on intensive care unit (ICU) mortality among mechanically ventilated COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients.MethodsThis was a retrospective study of prospectively collected data conducted in 70 ICUs (68 Spanish, one Andorran, one Irish), including mechanically ventilated COVID-19-associated ARDS patients admitted between February 6 and September 20, 2020. Individuals who received corticosteroids for refractory shock were excluded. Patients exposed to corticosteroids at admission were matched with patients without corticosteroids through propensity score matching. Primary outcome was all-cause ICU mortality. Secondary outcomes were to compare in-hospital mortality, ventilator-free days at 28 days, respiratory superinfection and length of stay between patients with corticosteroids and those without corticosteroids. We performed survival analysis accounting for competing risks and subgroup sensitivity analysis.ResultsWe included 1835 mechanically ventilated COVID-19-associated ARDS, of whom 1117 (60.9%) received corticosteroids. After propensity score matching, ICU mortality did not differ between patients treated with corticosteroids and untreated patients (33.8% vs. 30.9%; p = 0.28). In survival analysis, corticosteroid treatment at ICU admission was associated with short-term survival benefit (HR 0.53; 95% CI 0.39-0.72), although beyond the 17th day of admission, this effect switched and there was an increased ICU mortality (long-term HR 1.68; 95% CI 1.16-2.45). The sensitivity analysis reinforced the results. Subgroups of age < 60 years, severe ARDS and corticosteroids plus tocilizumab could have greatest benefit from corticosteroids as short-term decreased ICU mortality without long-term negative effects were observed. Larger length of stay was observed with corticosteroids among non-survivors both in the ICU and in hospital. There were no significant differences for the remaining secondary outcomes.ConclusionsOur results suggest that corticosteroid treatment for mechanically ventilated COVID-19-associated ARDS had a biphasic time-dependent effect on ICU mortality. Specific subgroups showed clear effect on improving survival with corticosteroid use. Therefore, further research is required to identify treatment-responsive subgroups among the mechanically ventilated COVID-19-associated ARDS patients.

Project description:ObjectivesTo determine the association between mean airway pressure and 90-day mortality in patients with acute respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation and to compare the predictive ability of mean airway pressure compared with inspiratory plateau pressure and driving pressure.DesignProspective observational cohort.SettingFive ICUs in Lima, Peru.SubjectsAdults requiring invasive mechanical ventilation via endotracheal tube for acute respiratory failure.InterventionsNone.Measurements and main resultsOf potentially eligible participants (n = 1,500), 65 (4%) were missing baseline mean airway pressure, while 352 (23.5%) were missing baseline plateau pressure and driving pressure. Ultimately, 1,429 participants were included in the analysis with an average age of 59 ± 19 years, 45% female, and a mean PaO2/FIO2 ratio of 248 ± 147 mm Hg at baseline. Overall, 90-day mortality was 50.4%. Median baseline mean airway pressure was 13 cm H2O (interquartile range, 10-16 cm H2O) in participants who died compared to a median mean airway pressure of 12 cm H2O (interquartile range, 10-14 cm H2O) in participants who survived greater than 90 days (p < 0.001). Mean airway pressure was independently associated with 90-day mortality (odds ratio, 1.38 for difference comparing the 75th to the 25th percentile for mean airway pressure; 95% CI, 1.10-1.74) after adjusting for age, sex, baseline Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III, baseline PaO2/FIO2 (modeled with restricted cubic spline), baseline positive end-expiratory pressure, baseline tidal volume, and hospital site. In predicting 90-day mortality, baseline mean airway pressure demonstrated similar discriminative ability (adjusted area under the curve = 0.69) and calibration characteristics as baseline plateau pressure and driving pressure.ConclusionsIn a multicenter prospective cohort, baseline mean airway pressure was independently associated with 90-day mortality in mechanically ventilated participants and predicts mortality similarly to plateau pressure and driving pressure. Because mean airway pressure is readily available on all mechanically ventilated patients and all ventilator modes, it is a potentially more useful predictor of mortality in acute respiratory failure.

Project description:BackgroundDiaphragmatic dysfunction is well documented in patients receiving mechanical ventilation. Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) has been used to facilitate weaning by strengthening the inspiratory muscles, yet the optimal approach remains uncertain. Whilst some data on the metabolic response to whole body exercise in critical care exist, the metabolic response to IMT in critical care is yet to be investigated. This study aimed to quantify the metabolic response to IMT in critical care and its relationship to physiological variables.MethodsWe conducted a prospective observational study on mechanically ventilated patients ventilated for ≥ 72 h and able to participate in IMT in a medical, surgical, and cardiothoracic intensive care unit. 76 measurements were taken on 26 patients performing IMT using an inspiratory threshold loading device at 4 cmH2O, and at 30, 50 and 80% of their negative inspiratory force (NIF). Oxygen consumption (VO2) was measured continuously using indirect calorimetry.ResultsFirst session mean (SD) VO2 was 276 (86) ml/min at baseline, significantly increasing to 321 (93) ml/min, 333 (92) ml/min, 351(101) ml/min and 388 (98) ml/min after IMT at 4 cmH2O and 30, 50 and 80% NIF, respectively (p = 0.003). Post hoc comparisons revealed significant differences in VO2 between baseline and 50% NIF and baseline and 80% NIF (p = 0.048 and p = 0.001, respectively). VO2 increased by 9.3 ml/min for every 1 cmH2O increase in inspiratory load from IMT. Every increase in P/F ratio of 1 decreased the intercept VO2 by 0.41 ml/min (CI - 0.58 to - 0.24 p < 0.001). NIF had a significant effect on the intercept and slope, with every 1 cmH2O increase in NIF increasing intercept VO2 by 3.28 ml/min (CI 1.98-4.59 p < 0.001) and decreasing the dose-response slope by 0.15 ml/min/cmH2O (CI - 0.24 to - 0.05 p = 0.002).ConclusionsIMT causes a significant load-dependent increase in VO2. P/F ratio and NIF impact baseline VO2. The dose-response relationship of the applied respiratory load during IMT is modulated by respiratory strength. These data may offer a novel approach to prescription of IMT.Take home messageThe optimal approach to IMT in ICU is uncertain; we measured VO2 at different applied respiratory loads to assess whether VO2 increased proportionally with load and found VO2 increased by 9.3 ml/min for every 1 cmH2O increase in inspiratory load from IMT. Baseline NIF has a significant effect on the intercept and slope, participants with a higher baseline NIF have a higher resting VO2 but a less pronounced increase in VO2 as the inspiratory load increases; this may offer a novel approach to IMT prescription.
