Objective To analyze the risk factors for duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients. Methods Ninety-six patients who received mechanical ventilation from January 2011 to December 2011 in intensive care unit were recruited in the study. The clinical data were collected retrospectively including the general condition, underlying diseases, vital signs before ventilation, laboratory examination, and APACHEⅡ score of the patients, etc. According to ventilation time, the patients were divided into a long-term group ( n = 41) and a short-term group ( n = 55) . Risk factors were screened by univariate analysis, then analyzed by logistic regression method.Results Univariate analysis revealed that the differences of temperature, respiratory index, PaCO2 , white blood cell count ( WBC) , plasma albumin ( ALB) , blood urea nitrogen ( BUN) , pulmonary artery wedge pressure ( PAWP) , APACHEⅡ, sex, lung infection in X-ray, abdominal distention, and complications between two groups were significant.With logistic multiple regression analysis, the lower level of ALB, higher level of PAWP, lung infection in X-ray, APACHE Ⅱ score, abdominal distention, and complications were independent predictors of long-term mechanical ventilation ( P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion Early improving the nutritional status and cardiac function, control infection effectively, keep stool patency, and avoid complications may shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients.
ObjectiveTo compare the predictive values of dynamic energy expenditure (EE) monitoring and the traditional method (rapid shallow breath index) for weaning in patient who is suitable for weaning from mechanical ventilation and accepts sequentially reduced support of ventilator.MethodsThis study included a total of 93 patients who were admitted to the Department of Intensive Care Medicine in 2018 to 2019, and were eligible for weaning from mechanical ventilation. The energy expenditure monitoring device of GE ventilator (CARESCAPE R860) was used to record the patient's change rate of EE [δEE(%), T1 (PSV 20/5), T2 (PSV 15/5), T3 (PSV 10-5/5), T4 (PSV 5/5)] while the ventilation support was declined. The differences in δEE were compared between the two groups of patients who were successful weaned (a successful group S) or failed (a failed group) at different phases. The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of δEE to the success rate of weaning.ResultA total of 36 patients failed weaning procedure. There was no significant difference in the basic status and disease type between the successful group and the failed group. There was no difference in δEE1 between T1-T2 phases [(5.67±2.31)% vs. (6.40±1.90)%, P>0.05], but significant difference in δEE between T2-T3 and T3-T4 phases [δEE2: (11.35±5.39)% vs. (14.21±6.33)%, P<0.05; δEE3: (8.39±3.90)% vs. (17.32±9.07)%, P<0.05]. The area under the ROC curve predicted by δEE2 and δEE3 for the patient's weaning results was higher than rapid shallow breath index (0.83 and 0.75 vs. 0.64, P<0.05).ConclusionDynamic energy expenditure monitoring can effectively evaluate and predict the success rate of weaning from mechanical ventilation, and can be applied to the clinical treatment process.
ObjectiveTo investigate the predictive value of diaphragm rapid shallow breathing index (D-RBSI) in weaning from mechanical ventilation in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).MethodsSeventy-six patients with COPD who were undergoing mechanical ventilation were enrolled in department of critical care medicine of our hospital from March 2016 to March 2017. The patient underwent spontaneous breathing test (SBT) using CPAP mode after weaning screening. When the SBT had started 10 min or the SBT failed, the patients' respiratory rate (RR) and tidal volume were recorded, and the diaphragmatic displacement (DD) of patients was measured by bedside ultrasound. The ratio of RR to DD (RR/DD) was calculated as D-RBSI, and the predictive value of D-RBSI on weaning results in mechanically ventilated patients with COPD was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.ResultsTwenty-eight patients failed weaning procedure. There were no significant differences in age and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II scores between the successful group and the failed group. The DD of the patients in the successful group was greater than that of the failed group [(22±6) mm vs. (13±5) mm, P<0.001]. RBSI and D-RBSI of the successful group were lower than those of the failure group [RBSI: (40±14) breaths/(min·L)vs. (52±20) breaths/(min·L), P=0.003; D-RBSI: (0.95±0.51) breaths/(min·mm) vs. (1.79±0.83) breaths/(min·mm), P<0.001)]. There was a good correlation between the RBSI and D-RBSI in the two groups (R2=0.778, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve predicted the weaning result by D-RBSI was higher than RBSI (0.85vs. 0.75, P<0 001="" the="" cutoff="" value="" of="" d-rbsi="">1.13 breaths/(min·mm) to predict weaning failure had a sensitivity of 0.82, and a specificity of 0.81.ConclusionThe rapid shallow breathing index of diaphragm can be effectively used to predict the weaning result of COPD patients during mechanical ventilation.
建立人工气道实施机械通气是治疗严重呼吸衰竭过程中挽救患者生命最常用的措施之一，然而通过人工气道的机械通气也增加了相关并发症发生的机会，如呼吸机相关性肺炎（VAP）等[1]。多数患者在应用呼吸机进行通气支持治疗中，当呼吸衰竭及其病因的病情缓解或明显改善时就可以解除人工气道和终止通气支持，但20%~30%的患者需要逐渐解除呼吸机的通气支持，谓之撤机（Weaning）[1]。尽管文献中撤机的定义略有不同，但主要指的是需要逐步减弱及停止通气支持和解除人工气道的一个时间过程。有慢性呼吸功能不全的患者撤机尤为困难，撤机困难患者的撤机时间可占总机械通气时间的40%[2]。机械通气时间延长与VAP发生率和病死率增加相关。一般来说，机械通气时间gt;3 d，VAP的发生率增加；机械通气时间gt;5 d，并发的VAP为晚发性医院获得性肺炎（HAP），其感染的病原体多为耐多药细菌，治疗难度加大，病死率高于早发性HAP。因此，对于机械通气患者来说，一旦建立人工气道实施有创通气，就应该积极创造条件，尽快撤机，去除人工气道。然而过快地降低和停止通气支持以及过早的气管拔管，可导致撤机失败和再插管。因此时机不成熟的撤机和延时撤机同样可造成机械通气时间过长，导致VAP发生率和病死率升高，以及医疗费用增加[2]。撤机的模式和方法有多种，但最佳的撤机方式仍有争议[1]。近年来无创通气（NIV）作为一种撤机方式用于临床已引起人们的兴趣和关注，但至今临床研究所得结论并未达到一致，NIV是否可以作为一种常规撤机方式用于临床尚无定论。本文通过总结近年来相关的临床研究，评价NIV用于机械通气撤机的可行性和利弊，探讨需进一步优化研究方案来解决的有关问题。
Objective To analyze the prognostic factors in the postoperative patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation after extracorporeal circulation.Methods From Oct 2004 to Oct 2007，35 cases of postoperative patients after extracorporeal circulation required mechanical ventilation for ≥24 hours in ICU were enrolled.The patients were divided into death group and survival group.Preoperative variables including blood glucose，serum albumin，creatinine and ejection fraction（EF），intra-operative variables such as cardiopulmonary bypass（CPB） duration，aortic cross clamp（ACC） time，blood transfusion，and postoperative variables such as vital sign arrival at ICU，renal function，drainage in first 24 hours，APACHEⅡ score，ventilation duration were analyzed retrospectively.Results There were significant differences in blood glucose，serum albumin，EF，CPB，ACC，fresh frozen plasma transfusion，APACHEⅡ，creatinine，APTT and oxygenation index between the death group（12 cases，34.29%） and the survival group（23 cases，65.71%）.Stepwise logistic regression analysis indicated that EF（OR=0.7973，95%CI 0.6417-0.9906） and APACHEⅡ（OR=1.8588，95%CI 1.1071-3.1210） were predictors of prognosis.Conclusions High mortality is found in postoperative patients after extracorporeal circulation with prolonged mechanical ventilation.The main predictors of prognosis were EF and APACHEⅡ.It’s important to assess preoperative condition for cardiac surgical patients completely and provide more intensive perioperative care.
Objective To investigate the predictive value of mechanical power (MP) in the weaning outcome of adaptive mechanical ventilation plus intelligent trigger (AMV+IntelliCycle, simply called AMV) mode for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. Methods From November 2019 to March 2021, patients with mild to moderate ARDS who were treated with invasive mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University were divided into successful weaning group and failed weaning group according to the outcome of weaning. All patients were treated with AMV mode during the trial. The MP, oral closure pressure (P0.1), respiratory rate (RR) and tidal volume (VT) of the two groups were compared 30 min and 2 h after spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). The correlation between 30 min and 2 h MP and shallow rapid respiratory index (RSBI) was analyzed by Pearson correlation. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of 30 min MP in ARDS patients with AMV mode weaning failure. Results Sixty-eight patients were included in the study, 49 of them were successfully removed and 19 of them failed. There was no statistical significance in age, gender, body mass index, oxygenation index, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ score, reasons for mechanical ventilation (respiratory failure, sepsis, intracranial lesions, and others) between the two groups (all P>0.05). The MP, P0.1 and RR at SBT 30 min and 2 h of the successful weaning group was lower than those of the failed weaning group (all P<0.05), but the VT of the successful weaning group was higher than the failed weaning group (all P<0.05). There was a significant relation between the MP at SBT 30 min and 2 h and RSBI (r value was 0.640 and 0.702 respectively, both P<0.05). The area under ROC curve of MP was 0.674, 95% confidence interval was 0.531 - 0.817, P value was 0.027, sensitivity was 71.73%, specificity was 91.49%, positive predictive value was 0.789, negative predictive value was 0.878, optimal cutoff value was 16.500. The results showed that 30 min MP had a good predictive value for the failure of weaning in AMV mode in ARDS patients. Conclusion MP can be used as an accurate index to predict the outcome of weaning in ARDS patients with AMV mode.
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in patients with high risk of weaning induced pulmonary oedema.MethodsFrom June 2018 to June 2019, 63 patients with mechanical ventilation in the Department of Critical Care Medicine of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University were enrolled. Randomized digital table method was randomly divided into two groups and the resulting random number assignment was hidden in opaque envelopes, the experimental group received non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (n=32), and the control group received mask oxygen therapy ventilation (n=31). The heart rate, respiratory rate, means arterial pressure, hypoxemia, reintubation, blood gas analysis and other indicators were compared between the two groups after 2 hours of weaning. The length of hospital stay, mortality and complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsAfter 2 hours of weaning, the heart rate and respiratory rate were significantly lower in the non-invasive positive pressure ventilation group than in the mask group (P<0.05). There was no difference in mean arterial pressure between the two groups of patients, which was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The incidence of hypoxemia, laryngeal edema and reintubation in the noninvasive positive pressure ventilation group was significantly lower than that in the mask group, which was statistically significant (P<0.05), and the blood gas analysis index was better than the mask group (P<0.05). The non-invasive positive pressure ventilation group was significantly shorter than the mask group in the length of hospital stay and intensive care unit (P<0.05). The hospital mortality rate in 28 days was lower than that in the mask group (P<0.05), but there was no difference in tracheotomy, pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionsNoninvasive positive pressure ventilation can effectively prevent hypoxemia, laryngeal edema, and re-intubation in patients at high risk of withdrawal related pulmonary edema. It can also shorten the length of hospital stay, which is worth clinical attention and promotion.
Objective To investigate whether the respiratory support weaning based on adaptive support ventilation ( ASV) could reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation in patients after fast-track coronary artery bypass grafting ( CABG) . Methods After CABG during the same fast-track general anesthesia, 46 patients were randomly assigned to an ASV group or a synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation ( SIMV) group as control. The duration of mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic parameters, and airway pressures were recorded. Meanwhile, the variables and the number of the arterial blood gas were recorded. Results The duration of mechanical ventilation was shorter in the ASV group than that in the control group [ 196( 152-286) ] min vs. 253( 196-498) min, P lt;0. 05] . The duration of ICUstay was shorterin the ASV group than that in the control group [ ( 14. 5 ±0. 7) h vs. ( 16. 8 ±0. 4 ) h, P lt;0. 01] . Fewer arterial blood analyses were performed in the ASV group than those in the control group [ 5 ( 4-7) vs.7( 6-9) , P lt; 0. 05] . Conclusions A ventilation weaning protocol based on ASV is practicable. It may accelerate tracheal extubation, shorten the length of ICU stay, and simplify ventilation management in patients after fast-track CABG.
