Automated detection and quantification of reverse triggering effort under mechanical ventilation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Reverse triggering (RT) is a dyssynchrony defined by a respiratory muscle contraction following a passive mechanical insufflation. It is potentially harmful for the lung and the diaphragm, but its detection is challenging. Magnitude of effort generated by RT is currently unknown. Our objective was to validate supervised methods for automatic detection of RT using only airway pressure (Paw) and flow. A secondary objective was to describe the magnitude of the efforts generated during RT.

Methods

We developed algorithms for detection of RT using Paw and flow waveforms. Experts having Paw, flow and esophageal pressure (Pes) assessed automatic detection accuracy by comparison against visual assessment. Muscular pressure (Pmus) was measured from Pes during RT, triggered breaths and ineffective efforts.

Results

Tracings from 20 hypoxemic patients were used (mean age 65 ± 12 years, 65% male, ICU survival 75%). RT was present in 24% of the breaths ranging from 0 (patients paralyzed or in pressure support ventilation) to 93.3%. Automatic detection accuracy was 95.5%: sensitivity 83.1%, specificity 99.4%, positive predictive value 97.6%, negative predictive value 95.0% and kappa index of 0.87. Pmus of RT ranged from 1.3 to 36.8 cmH₂0, with a median of 8.7 cmH₂0. RT with breath stacking had the highest levels of Pmus, and RTs with no breath stacking were of similar magnitude than pressure support breaths.

Conclusion

An automated detection tool using airway pressure and flow can diagnose reverse triggering with excellent accuracy. RT generates a median Pmus of 9 cmH₂O with important variability between and within patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Adaptive mechanical ventilation automatically adjusts respiratory rate (RR) and tidal volume (VT) to deliver the clinically desired minute ventilation, selecting RR and VT based on Otis' equation on least work of breathing. However, the resulting VT may be relatively high, especially in patients with more compliant lungs. Therefore, a new mode of adaptive ventilation (adaptive ventilation mode 2, AVM2) was developed which automatically minimizes inspiratory power with the aim of ensuring lung-protective combinations of VT and RR. The aim of this study was to investigate whether AVM2 reduces VT, mechanical power, and driving pressure (?Pstat) and provides similar gas exchange when compared to adaptive mechanical ventilation based on Otis' equation. METHODS:A prospective randomized cross-over study was performed in 20 critically ill patients on controlled mechanical ventilation, including 10 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Each patient underwent 1 h of mechanical ventilation with AVM2 and 1 h of adaptive mechanical ventilation according to Otis' equation (adaptive ventilation mode, AVM). At the end of each phase, we collected data on VT, mechanical power, ?P, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, PaCO2, pH, and hemodynamics. RESULTS:Comparing adaptive mechanical ventilation with AVM2 to the approach based on Otis' equation (AVM), we found a significant reduction in VT both in the whole study population (7.2?±?0.9 vs. 8.2?±?0.6?ml/kg, p?<? 0.0001) and in the subgroup of patients with ARDS (6.6?±?0.8?ml/kg with AVM2 vs. 7.9?±?0.5?ml/kg with AVM, p?<? 0.0001). Similar reductions were observed for ?Pstat (whole study population: 11.5?±?1.6 cmH2O with AVM2 vs. 12.6?±?2.5 cmH2O with AVM, p?<? 0.0001; patients with ARDS: 11.8?±?1.7 cmH2O with AVM2 and 13.3?±?2.7 cmH2O with AVM, p?=?0.0044) and total mechanical power (16.8?±?3.9?J/min with AVM2 vs. 18.6?±?4.6?J/min with AVM, p?=?0.0024; ARDS: 15.6?±?3.2?J/min with AVM2 vs. 17.5?±?4.1?J/min with AVM, p?=?0.0023). There was a small decrease in PaO2/FiO2 (270?±?98 vs. 291?±?102?mmHg with AVM, p?=?0.03; ARDS: 194?±?55 vs. 218?±?61 with AVM, p?=?0.008) and no differences in PaCO2, pH, and hemodynamics. CONCLUSIONS:Adaptive mechanical ventilation with automated minimization of inspiratory power may lead to more lung-protective ventilator settings when compared with adaptive mechanical ventilation according to Otis' equation. TRIAL REGISTRATION:The study was registered at the German Clinical Trials Register ( DRKS00013540 ) on December 1, 2017, before including the first patient.

Project description:BackgroundThe discontinuation of mechanical ventilation after coronary surgery may prolong and significantly increase the load on intensive care unit personnel. We hypothesized that automated mode using INTELLiVENT-ASV can decrease duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation, reduce workload on medical staff, and provide safe ventilation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). The primary endpoint of our study was to assess the duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation during different modes of weaning from respiratory support (RS) after OPCAB. The secondary endpoint was to assess safety of the automated weaning mode and the number of manual interventions to the ventilator settings during the weaning process in comparison with the protocolized weaning mode.Materials and methodsForty adult patients undergoing elective OPCAB were enrolled into a prospective single-center study. Patients were randomized into two groups: automated weaning (n = 20) using INTELLiVENT-ASV mode with quick-wean option; and protocolized weaning (n = 20), using conventional synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV) + pressure support (PS) mode. We assessed the duration of postoperative ventilation, incidence and duration of unacceptable RS, and the load on medical staff. We also performed the retrospective analysis of 102 patients (standard weaning) who were weaned from ventilator with SIMV + PS mode based on physician's experience without prearranged algorithm.Results and discussionRealization of the automated weaning protocol required change in respiratory settings in 2 patients vs. 7 (5-9) adjustments per patient in the protocolized weaning group. Both incidence and duration of unacceptable RS were reduced significantly by means of the automated weaning approach. The FiO2 during spontaneous breathing trials was significantly lower in the automated weaning group: 30 (30-35) vs. 40 (40-45) % in the protocolized weaning group (p < 0.01). The average time until tracheal extubation did not differ in the automated weaning and the protocolized weaning groups: 193 (115-309) and 197 (158-253) min, respectively, but increased to 290 (210-411) min in the standard weaning group.ConclusionThe automated weaning system after off-pump coronary surgery might provide postoperative ventilation in a more protective way, reduces the workload on medical staff, and does not prolong the duration of weaning from ventilator. The use of automated or protocolized weaning can reduce the duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation in comparison with non-protocolized weaning based on the physician's decision.

Project description:BackgroundHigh respiratory drive in mechanically ventilated patients with spontaneous breathing effort may cause excessive lung stress and strain and muscle loading. Therefore, it is important to have a reliable estimate of respiratory effort to guarantee lung and diaphragm protective mechanical ventilation. Recently, a novel non-invasive method was found to detect excessive dynamic transpulmonary driving pressure (?PL) and respiratory muscle pressure (Pmus) with reasonable accuracy. During the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, it was impossible to obtain the gold standard for respiratory effort, esophageal manometry, in every patient. Therefore, we investigated whether this novel non-invasive method could also be applied in COVID-19 patients.Methods?PL and Pmus were derived from esophageal manometry in COVID-19 patients. In addition, ?PL and Pmus were computed from the occlusion pressure (?Pocc) obtained during an expiratory occlusion maneuver. Measured and computed ?PL and Pmus were compared and discriminative performance for excessive ?PL and Pmus was assessed. The relation between occlusion pressure and respiratory effort was also assessed.ResultsThirteen patients were included. Patients had a low dynamic lung compliance [24 (20-31) mL/cmH2O], high ?PL (25?±?6 cmH2O) and high Pmus (16?±?7 cmH2O). Low agreement was found between measured and computed ?PL and Pmus. Excessive ?PL?>?20 cmH2O and Pmus?>?15 cmH2O were accurately detected (area under the receiver operating curve (AUROC) 1.00 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.00-1.00], sensitivity 100% (95% CI, 72-100%) and specificity 100% (95% CI, 16-100%) and AUROC 0.98 (95% CI, 0.90-1.00), sensitivity 100% (95% CI, 54-100%) and specificity 86% (95% CI, 42-100%), respectively). Respiratory effort calculated per minute was highly correlated with ?Pocc (for esophageal pressure time product per minute (PTPes/min) r2?=?0.73; P?=?0.0002 and work of breathing (WOB) r2?=?0.85; P?<?0.0001).Conclusions?PL and Pmus can be computed from an expiratory occlusion maneuver and can predict excessive ?PL and Pmus in patients with COVID-19 with high accuracy.
