Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is an essential respiratory support in acute respiratory distress syndrome and intensive care cases. However, it is possible to cause ventilator-induced lung damage (VILI). In this work, we used a microfluidic device to provide a mechanical ventilation with cyclic stretch (30% total area change rate and 15 cycles per min) and oxygen (air) flux applied by a controlled pressured airflow. Compared to static control, the ventilation stretch resulted in significant death of A549 cells accompanied by increased lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and ferrous ion accumulation, while by decreased protein expression of solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) proteins, as well as ratio of reduced-to-oxidized glutathione. The resulted A549 cell death could be alleviated by two ferroptosis inhibitors, deferoxamine and ferrostatin-1. These similar phenomena also occurred in other three types of human lung cells, such as primary alveolar type II epithelial cells, primary alveolar microvascular endothelial cells, and bronchial epithelial cell line. From the A549 RNA sequence analysis, the gene ontology (GO) based on 85 ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) indicated that several iron homeostasis-related biological processes and molecular functions were involved in the ventilation-stretch-induced cell death, while the gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) based on 2901 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) showed that glutathione metabolism was significantly suppressed. Finally, solute carrier family 39 member 14 (SLC39A14), a transporter of uptake extracellular divalent metal ion, was selected to be knocked down to verify its role in the ventilation-stretch-induced death of A549. Our results suggest that ferroptosis may be an alternative pathway for VILI, but it needs to be confirmed by further animal experiments and clinical data.

Abstract
Maintaining spontaneous breathing has both potentially beneficial and deleterious consequences in patients with acute respiratory failure, depending on the balance that can be obtained between the protecting and damaging effects on the lungs and the diaphragm. Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is an assist mode, which supplies the respiratory system with a pressure proportional to the integral of the electrical activity of the diaphragm. This proportional mode of ventilation has the theoretical potential to deliver lung- and respiratory-muscle-protective ventilation by preserving the physiologic defense mechanisms against both lung overdistention and ventilator overassistance, as well as reducing the incidence of diaphragm disuse atrophy while maintaining patient–ventilator synchrony. This narrative review presents an overview of NAVA technology, its basic principles, the different methods to set the assist level and the findings of experimental and clinical studies which focused on lung and diaphragm protection, machine–patient interaction and preservation of breathing pattern variability. A summary of the findings of the available clinical trials which investigate the use of NAVA in acute respiratory failure will also be presented and discussed.

Abstract
Respiratory failure is a common reason for pediatric intensive care unit admission. The vast majority of children requiring mechanical ventilation can be supported with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) but certain cases with refractory hypoxemia or hypercapnia may require more advanced modes of ventilation. This paper discusses what we have learned about the use of advanced ventilator modes [e.g., high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV), high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) airway pressure release ventilation (APRV), and neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA)] from clinical, animal, and bench studies. The evidence supporting advanced ventilator modes is weak and consists of largely of single center case series, although a few RCTs have been performed. Animal and bench models illustrate the complexities of different modes and the challenges of applying these clinically. Some modes are proprietary to certain ventilators, are expensive, or may only be available at well-resourced centers. Future efforts should include large, multicenter observational, interventional, or adaptive design trials of different rescue modes (e.g., PROSpect trial), evaluate their use during ECMO, and should incorporate assessments through volumetric capnography, electric impedance tomography, and transpulmonary pressure measurements, along with precise reporting of ventilator parameters and physiologic variables.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Variable assisted mechanical ventilation has been shown to improve lung function and reduce lung injury. However, differences between extrinsic and intrinsic variability are unknown. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA, intrinsic variability), variable pressure support ventilation (Noisy PSV, extrinsic variability) and conventional pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) on lung and diaphragmatic function and damage in experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). DESIGN Randomised controlled animal study. SETTING University Hospital Research Facility. SUBJECTS A total of 24 juvenile female pigs. INTERVENTIONS ARDS was induced by repetitive lung lavage and injurious ventilation. Animals were randomly assigned to 24 h of either: 1) NAVA, 2) Noisy PSV or 3) PCV (n=8 per group). Mechanical ventilation settings followed the ARDS Network recommendations. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was histological lung damage. Secondary outcomes were respiratory variables and patterns, subject-ventilator asynchrony (SVA), pulmonary and diaphragmatic biomarkers, as well as diaphragmatic muscle atrophy and myosin isotypes. RESULTS Global alveolar damage did not differ between groups, but NAVA resulted in less interstitial oedema in dorsal lung regions than Noisy PSV. Gas exchange and SVA incidence did not differ between groups. Compared with Noisy PSV, NAVA generated higher coefficients of variation of tidal volume and respiratory rate. During NAVA, only 40.4% of breaths were triggered by the electrical diaphragm signal. The IL-8 concentration in lung tissue was lower after NAVA compared with PCV and Noisy PSV, whereas Noisy PSV yielded lower type III procollagen mRNA expression than NAVA and PCV. Diaphragmatic muscle fibre diameters were smaller after PCV compared with assisted modes, whereas expression of myosin isotypes did not differ between groups. CONCLUSION Noisy PSV and NAVA did not reduce global lung injury compared with PCV but affected different biomarkers and attenuated diaphragmatic atrophy. NAVA increased the respiratory variability; however, NAVA yielded a similar SVA incidence as Noisy PSV. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial was registered and approved by the Landesdirektion Dresden, Germany (AZ 24-9168.11-1/2012-2).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation with low tidal volumes has the potential to mitigate ventilation-induced lung injury, yet the clinical effect of tidal volume size on myocardial function has not been clarified. This cross-sectional study investigated whether low tidal volume ventilation has beneficial effects on myocardial systolic and diastolic function compared to intermediate tidal volume ventilation. METHODS Forty-two mechanically ventilated patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) underwent transthoracic echocardiography after more than 24 h of mechanical ventilation according to the Protective Ventilation in Patients without ARDS (PReVENT) trial comparing a low versus intermediate tidal volume strategy. The primary outcome was left ventricular and right ventricular myocardial performance index as measure for combined systolic and diastolic function, with lower values indicating better myocardial function and a right ventricular myocardial performance index greater than 0.54 regarded as the abnormality threshold. Secondary outcomes included specific systolic and diastolic parameters. RESULTS One patient was excluded due to insufficient acoustic windows, leaving 21 patients receiving low tidal volumes with a tidal volume size (mean ± SD) of 6.5 ± 1.8 ml/kg predicted body weight, while 20 patients were subjected to intermediate tidal volumes receiving a tidal volume size of 9.5 ± 1.6 ml/kg predicted body weight (mean difference, -3.0 ml/kg; 95% CI, -4.1 to -2.0; P < 0.001). Right ventricular dysfunction was reduced in the low tidal volume group compared to the intermediate tidal volume group (myocardial performance index, 0.41 ± 0.13 vs. 0.64 ± 0.15; mean difference, -0.23; 95% CI, -0.32 to -0.14; P < 0.001) as was left ventricular dysfunction (myocardial performance index, 0.50 ± 0.17 vs. 0.63 ± 0.19; mean difference, -0.13; 95% CI, -0.24 to -0.01; P = 0.030). Similarly, most systolic parameters were superior in the low tidal volume group compared to the intermediate tidal volume group, yet diastolic parameters did not differ between both groups. CONCLUSIONS In patients without ARDS, intermediate tidal volume ventilation decreased left ventricular and right ventricular systolic function compared to low tidal volume ventilation, although without an effect on diastolic function.

Abstract
Background Lung–protective ventilation (LPV) has been found to minimize the risk of ventilator–induced lung injury (VILI). However, whether LPV is able to diminish ventilator–induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) remains unknown. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that LPV protects the diaphragm against VIDD. Methods Adult male Wistar rats received either conventional mechanical (tidal volume [VT]: 10 ml/kg, positive end–expiratory pressure [PEEP]: 2 cm H2O; CV group) or lung-protective (VT: 5 ml/kg, PEEP: 10 cm H2O; LPV group) ventilation for 12 h. Then, diaphragms and lungs were collected for biochemical and histological analyses. Transcriptome sequencing (RNA–seq) was performed to determine the differentially expressed genes in the diaphragms between groups. Results Our results suggested that LPV was associated with diminished pulmonary injuries and reduced oxidative stress compared with the effects of the CV strategy in rats. However, animals that received LPV showed increased protein degradation, decreased cross–sectional areas (CSAs) of myofibers, and reduced forces of the diaphragm compared with the same parameters in animals receiving CV (p < 0.05). In addition, the LPV group showed a higher level of oxidative stress in the diaphragm than the CV group (p < 0.05). Moreover, RNA–seq and western blots revealed that the peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor γ coactivator–1alpha (PGC–1α), a powerful reactive oxygen species (ROS) inhibitor, was significantly downregulated in the LPV group compared with its expression in the CV group (p < 0.05). Conclusions Compared with the CV strategy, the LPV strategy did not protect the diaphragm against VIDD in rats. In contrast, the LPV strategy worsened VIDD by inducing oxidative stress together with the downregulation of PGC–1α in the diaphragm. However, further studies are required to determine the roles of PGC–1α in ventilator-induced diaphragmatic oxidative stress.

Abstract
Background Ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction is a serious complication associated with higher ICU mortality, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and unsuccessful withdrawal from mechanical ventilation. Although neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) could be associated with lower patient-ventilator asynchrony compared with conventional ventilation, its effects on diaphragmatic dysfunction have not yet been well elucidated. Methods Twenty Japanese white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, (1) no ventilation, (2) controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) with continuous neuromuscular blockade, (3) NAVA, and (4) pressure support ventilation (PSV). Ventilated rabbits had lung injury induced, and mechanical ventilation was continued for 12 h. Respiratory waveforms were continuously recorded, and the asynchronous events measured. Subsequently, the animals were euthanized, and diaphragm and lung tissue were removed, and stained with Hematoxylin-Eosin to evaluate the extent of lung injury. The myofiber cross-sectional area of the diaphragm was evaluated under the adenosine triphosphatase staining, sarcomere disruptions by electron microscopy, apoptotic cell numbers by the TUNEL method, and quantitative analysis of Caspase-3 mRNA expression by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results Physiological index, respiratory parameters, and histologic lung injury were not significantly different among the CMV, NAVA, and PSV. NAVA had lower asynchronous events than PSV (median [interquartile range], NAVA, 1.1 [0–2.2], PSV, 6.8 [3.8–10.0], p = 0.023). No differences were seen in the cross-sectional areas of myofibers between NAVA and PSV, but those of Type 1, 2A, and 2B fibers were lower in CMV compared with NAVA. The area fraction of sarcomere disruptions was lower in NAVA than PSV (NAVA vs PSV; 1.6 [1.5–2.8] vs 3.6 [2.7–4.3], p < 0.001). The proportion of apoptotic cells was lower in NAVA group than in PSV (NAVA vs PSV; 3.5 [2.5–6.4] vs 12.1 [8.9–18.1], p < 0.001). There was a tendency in the decreased expression levels of Caspase-3 mRNA in NAVA groups. Asynchrony Index was a mediator in the relationship between NAVA and sarcomere disruptions. Conclusions Preservation of spontaneous breathing using either PSV or NAVA can preserve the cross sectional area of the diaphragm to prevent atrophy. However, NAVA may be superior to PSV in preventing sarcomere injury and apoptosis of myofibrotic cells of the diaphragm, and this effect may be mediated by patient-ventilator asynchrony.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is the most used short-term life support technique worldwide and is applied daily for a diverse spectrum of indications, from scheduled surgical procedures to acute organ failure. This state-of-the-art review provides an update on the basic physiology of respiratory mechanics, the working principles, and the main ventilatory settings, as well as the potential complications of mechanical ventilation. Specific ventilatory approaches in particular situations such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are detailed along with protective ventilation in patients with normal lungs. We also highlight recent data on patient-ventilator dyssynchrony, humidified high-flow oxygen through nasal cannula, extracorporeal life support, and the weaning phase. Finally, we discuss the future of mechanical ventilation, addressing avenues for improvement.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation has the potential to increase inflammation in both healthy and injured lungs. Several animal studies have shown that variable ventilation recruits the lungs and reduces inflammation. However, it is unclear which cellular mechanisms are involved in those findings. We hypothesized that variable stretch of LPS-stimulated alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) reduces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines compared to non-variable stretch. AECs were subjected to non-variable or variable cyclic stretch (sinusoidal pattern), with and without LPS stimulation. The expression and release of interleukin-6, CXCL-2 and CCL-2 mRNA were analyzed after 4 hours. The phosphorylation of the MAPKs ERK1/2 and SAPK/JNK was determined by Western Blot analysis at 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min of cyclic stretch. In LPS-stimulated AECs, variable cyclic cell stretching led to reduced cytokine expression and release compared to non-variable cell stretching. Furthermore, the phosphorylation of the MAPK ERK1/2 was increased after 30 minutes in non-variable stretched AECs, whereas variable stretched cells demonstrated only the non-stretched level of phosphorylation. After the 4h period of cyclic cell stretch and inhibition of the ERK1/2, but not the SAPK/JNK, signaling pathway, the gene expression of investigated cytokines increased in variable stretched, and decreased in non-variable stretched AECs. We conclude that in LPS-stimulated AECs, variable stretch reduced the pro-inflammatory response compared to non-variable stretch. This effect was mediated by the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and might partly explain the findings of reduced lung inflammation during mechanical ventilation modes that enhance breath-by-breath variability of the respiratory pattern.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is used to sustain life in patients with acute respiratory failure. A major concern in mechanically ventilated patients is the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury, which is partially prevented by lung-protective ventilation. Spontaneously breathing, nonintubated patients with acute respiratory failure may have a high respiratory drive and breathe with large tidal volumes and potentially injurious transpulmonary pressure swings. In patients with existing lung injury, regional forces generated by the respiratory muscles may lead to injurious effects on a regional level. In addition, the increase in transmural pulmonary vascular pressure swings caused by inspiratory effort may worsen vascular leakage. Recent data suggest that these patients may develop lung injury that is similar to the ventilator-induced lung injury observed in mechanically ventilated patients. As such, we argue that application of a lung-protective ventilation, today best applied with sedation and endotracheal intubation, might be considered a prophylactic therapy, rather than just a supportive therapy, to minimize the progression of lung injury from a form of patient self-inflicted lung injury. This has important implications for the management of these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endogenous pulmonary reflexes may protect the lungs during mechanical ventilation. We aimed to assess integration of continuous neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (cNAVA), delivering assist in proportion to diaphragm's electrical activity during inspiration and expiration, and Hering-Breuer inflation and deflation reflexes on lung recruitment, distension, and aeration before and after acute lung injury (ALI). METHODS In 7 anesthetised rabbits with bilateral pneumothoraces, we identified adequate cNAVA level (cNAVAAL) at the plateau in peak ventilator pressure during titration procedures before (healthy lungs with endotracheal tube, [HLETT]) and after ALI (endotracheal tube [ALIETT] and during non-invasive ventilation [ALINIV]). Following titration, cNAVAAL was maintained for 5min. In 2 rabbits, procedures were repeated after vagotomy (ALIETT+VAG). In 3 rabbits delivery of assist was temporarily modulated to provide assist on inspiration only. Computed tomography was performed before intubation, before ALI, during cNAVA titration, and after maintenance at cNAVAAL. RESULTS During ALIETT and ALINIV, normally aerated lung-regions doubled and poorly aerated lung-regions decreased to less than a third (p<0.05) compared to HLETT; no over-distension was observed. Tidal volumes were<5ml/kg throughout. Removing assist during expiration resulted in lung de-recruitment during ALIETT, but not during ALINIV. During ALIETT+VAG the expiratory portion of EAdi disappeared, resulting in cyclic lung collapse and recruitment. CONCLUSIONS When using cNAVA in ALI, vagally mediated reflexes regulated lung recruitment preventing both lung over-distension and atelectasis. During non-invasive cNAVA the upper airway muscles play a role in preventing atelectasis. Future studies should be performed to compare these findings with conventional lung-protective approaches.

Abstract
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is frequently used in the NICU to avoid intubation or as postextubation support for spontaneously breathing infants experiencing respiratory distress. Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is used as a mode of noninvasive support in which both the timing and degree of ventilatory assist are controlled by the patient. NIV-NAVA has been successfully used clinically in neonates as a mode of ventilation to prevent intubation, allow early extubation, and as a novel way to deliver nasal continuous positive airway pressure.

Comparing changing neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) levels in intubated and recently extubated neonates. J Perinatol 2016; 36:1097-1100. [PMID: 27629375 DOI: 10.1038/jp.2016.152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2016] [Revised: 07/26/2016] [Accepted: 08/10/2016] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a mode of mechanical ventilation that delivers ventilatory support in synchrony to the patient's respiratory needs using NAVA level, a proportionality constant that converts the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) into a peak pressure (PIP). Recent published studies suggest that neonates can control the delivered ventilatory support through neural feedback. Systematically increasing the NAVA level initially increases the PIP while maintaining a constant Edi until an inflection point or breakpoint (BrP) is reached, at which time the PIP plateaus and the Edi signal decreases. This study was performed to establish if there is a correlation of pre- and post-extubation BrP in premature neonates. STUDY DESIGN NAVA level was increased by 0.5 cm H2O mcV-1 every 3 min from 0.1 to 3.0 cm H2O mcV-1. PIP and Edi Peak and Minimum were recorded. STATISTICS PIP and phasic Edi (Edi peak-Edi min) were averaged for each NAVA level, plotted on a graph, and the BrP was determined by visual inspection of the inflection point for PIP. The data from the studies were then combined by averaging each variable at the BrP and for each change in NAVA level above and below the BrP. RESULTS Fifteen infants were studied for paired titration studies. PIP increased until the BrP was reached and then plateaued during both the intubated and extubated titration studies. Edi decreased after the BrP was reached during the titration studies. The BrP increased when patients were extubated from NAVA to noninvasive (NIV) NAVA. As the NAVA level rose above the BrP, PIP plateaued at a higher level and Edi decreased less during the NIV NAVA titration study. CONCLUSIONS Neonates demonstrated an increase in BrP, higher PIP and Edi when extubated from NAVA to NIV NAVA. This is most likely owing to the inefficiencies of NIV ventilation and suggests that neonates require a higher NAVA level when transitioning from NAVA to NIV NAVA.

Abstract
Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a mode of ventilation in which both the timing and degree of ventilatory assist are controlled by the patient. Since NAVA uses the diaphragm electrical activity (Edi) as the controller signal, it is possible to deliver synchronized non-invasive NAVA (NIV-NAVA) regardless of leaks and to monitor continuously patient respiratory pattern and drive. Advantages of NIV-NAVA over conventional modes include improved patient-ventilator interaction, reliable respiratory monitoring and self-regulation of respiratory support. In theory, these characteristics make NIV-NAVA an ideal mode to provide effective, appropriate non-invasive support to newborns with respiratory insufficiency. NIV-NAVA has been successfully used clinically in neonates as a mode of ventilation to prevent intubation, to allow early extubation, and as a novel way to deliver nasal continuous positive airway pressure. The use of NAVA in neonates is described with an emphasis on studies and clinical experience with NIV-NAVA.

Abstract
Background High tidal volume ventilation has shown to cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), possibly contributing to concomitant extrapulmonary organ dysfunction. The present study examined whether left ventricular (LV) function is dependent on tidal volume size and whether this effect is augmented during lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced lung injury. Methods Twenty male Wistar rats were sedated, paralyzed and then randomized in four groups receiving mechanical ventilation with tidal volumes of 6 ml/kg or 19 ml/kg with or without intrapulmonary administration of LPS. A conductance catheter was placed in the left ventricle to generate pressure-volume loops, which were also obtained within a few seconds of vena cava occlusion to obtain relatively load-independent LV systolic and diastolic function parameters. The end-systolic elastance / effective arterial elastance (Ees/Ea) ratio was used as the primary parameter of LV systolic function with the end-diastolic elastance (Eed) as primary LV diastolic function. Results Ees/Ea decreased over time in rats receiving LPS (p = 0.045) and high tidal volume ventilation (p = 0.007), with a lower Ees/Ea in the rats with high tidal volume ventilation plus LPS compared to the other groups (p < 0.001). Eed increased over time in all groups except for the rats receiving low tidal volume ventilation without LPS (p = 0.223). A significant interaction (p < 0.001) was found between tidal ventilation and LPS for Ees/Ea and Eed, and all rats receiving high tidal volume ventilation plus LPS died before the end of the experiment. Conclusions Low tidal volume ventilation ameliorated LV systolic and diastolic dysfunction while preventing death following LPS-induced lung injury in mechanically ventilated rats. Our data advocates the use of low tidal volumes, not only to avoid VILI, but to avert ventilator-induced myocardial dysfunction as well.

Abstract
Purpose of review Compared with the conventional forms of partial support, neurally adjusted ventilatory assist was repeatedly shown to improve patient–ventilator synchrony and reduce the risk of overassistance, while guaranteeing adequate inspiratory effort and gas exchange. A few animal studies also suggested the potential of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist in averting the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury. Recent work adds new information on the physiological effects of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist. Recent findings Compared with pressure support, neurally adjusted ventilatory assist has been shown to improve patient–ventilator interaction and synchrony in patients with the most challenging respiratory system mechanics, such as very low compliance consequent to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome and high resistance and air trapping due to chronic airflow obstruction; enhance redistribution of the ventilation in the dependent lung regions; avert the risk of patient–ventilator asynchrony due to sedation; avoid central apneas; limit the risk of high (injurious) tidal volumes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome of varied severity; and improve patient–ventilator interaction and synchrony during noninvasive ventilation, irrespective of the interface utilized. Summary Several studies nowadays prove the physiological benefits of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist, as opposed to the conventional modes of partial support. Whether these advantages translate into improvement of clinical outcomes remains to be determined.

Abstract
Introduction The objective was to compare the impact of three assistance levels of different modes of mechanical ventilation; neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA), proportional assist ventilation (PAV), and pressure support ventilation (PSV) on major features of patient-ventilator interaction. Methods PSV, NAVA, and PAV were set to obtain a tidal volume (VT) of 6 to 8 ml/kg (PSV100, NAVA100, and PAV100) in 16 intubated patients. Assistance was further decreased by 50% (PSV50, NAVA50, and PAV50) and then increased by 50% (PSV150, NAVA150, and PAV150) with all modes. The three modes were randomly applied. Airway flow and pressure, electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdi), and blood gases were measured. VT, peak EAdi, coefficient of variation of VT and EAdi, and the prevalence of the main patient-ventilator asynchronies were calculated. Results PAV and NAVA prevented the increase of VT with high levels of assistance (median 7.4 (interquartile range (IQR) 5.7 to 10.1) ml/kg and 7.4 (IQR, 5.9 to 10.5) ml/kg with PAV150 and NAVA150 versus 10.9 (IQR, 8.9 to 12.0) ml/kg with PSV150, P <0.05). EAdi was higher with PAV than with PSV at level100 and level150. The coefficient of variation of VT was higher with NAVA and PAV (19 (IQR, 14 to 31)% and 21 (IQR 16 to 29)% with NAVA100 and PAV100 versus 13 (IQR 11 to 18)% with PSV100, P <0.05). The prevalence of ineffective triggering was lower with PAV and NAVA than with PSV (P <0.05), but the prevalence of double triggering was higher with NAVA than with PAV and PSV (P <0.05). Conclusions PAV and NAVA both prevent overdistention, improve neuromechanical coupling, restore the variability of the breathing pattern, and decrease patient-ventilator asynchrony in fairly similar ways compared with PSV. Further studies are needed to evaluate the possible clinical benefits of NAVA and PAV on clinical outcomes. Trial registration Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02056093. Registered 18 December 2013.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) is a novel mode of ventilation that has been demonstrated to improve infant-ventilator interaction, compared to the conventional modes in retrospective and short-term studies. OBJECTIVES To prospectively evaluate the physiologic effects of NAVA in comparison with pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC) in two nonrandomized 12-hour periods. METHODS We studied 14 consecutive intubated preterm neonates receiving mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory failure. Peak airway pressure (Pawpeak), diaphragm electrical activity (EAdi), tidal volume (VT), mechanical (RRmec) and neural (RRneu) respiratory rates, neural apneas, and the capillary arterialized blood gases were measured. The RRmec-to-RRneu ratio (MNR) and the asynchrony index were also calculated. The amount of fentanyl administered was recorded. RESULTS Pawpeak and VT were greater in PRVC (p < 0.01). Blood gases and RRmec were not different between modes, while RRneu and the EAdi swings were greater in NAVA (p = 0.02 and p < 0.001, respectively). MNR and the asynchrony index were remarkably lower in NAVA than in PRVC (p = 0.03 and p < 0.001, respectively). 1,841 neural apneas were observed during PRVC, with none in NAVA. Less fentanyl was administered during NAVA, as opposed to PRVC (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS In acutely ill preterm neonates, NAVA can be safely and efficiently applied for 12 consecutive hours. Compared to PRVC, NAVA is well tolerated with fewer sedatives.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is the main supportive treatment in respiratory failure due to different etiologies. However, MV might aggravate ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI). Four main mechanisms leading to VALI are: 1) increased stress and strain, induced by high tidal volume (VT); 2) increased shear stress, i.e. opening and closing, of previously atelectatic alveolar units; 3) distribution of perfusion and 4) biotrauma. In severe acute respiratory distress syndrome patients, low VT, higher levels of positive end expiratory pressure, long duration prone position and neuromuscular blockade within the first 48 hours are associated to a better outcome. VALI can also occur by using high VT in previously non injured lungs. We believe that prevention is the target to minimize injurious effects of MV. This review aims to describe pathophysiology of VALI, the possible prevention and treatment as well as monitoring MV to minimize VALI.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes the most recent clinical and experimental data on the impact of spontaneous breathing in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). RECENT FINDINGS Spontaneous breathing during assisted as well as nonassisted modes of mechanical ventilation improves lung function and reduces lung damage in mild and moderate ARDS. New modes of assisted mechanical ventilation with improved patient ventilator interaction and enhanced variability of the respiratory pattern offer additional benefit on lung function and damage. However, data supporting an outcome benefit of spontaneous breathing in ARDS, even in its mild and moderate forms, are missing. In contrast, controlled mechanical ventilation with muscle paralysis in the first 48 h of severe ARDS has been shown to improve survival, as compared with placebo. Currently, it is unclear whether ventilator settings, rather than the severity of lung injury, determine the potential of spontaneous breathing for benefit or harm. SUMMARY Clinical and experimental studies show that controlled mechanical ventilation with muscle paralysis in the early phase of severe ARDS reduces lung injury and even mortality. At present, spontaneous breathing should be avoided in the early phase of severe ARDS, but considered in mild-to-moderate ARDS.

Abstract
Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) uses the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) as a neural trigger to synchronize mechanical ventilatory breaths with the patient's neural respiratory drive. Using this signal enables the ventilator to proportionally support the patient's instantaneous drive on a breath-by-breath basis. Synchrony can be achieved even in the presence of significant air leaks, which make this an attractive choice for invasive and non-invasive ventilation of the neonate. This paper describes the Edi signal, neuroventilatory coupling, and patient-ventilator synchrony including the functional concept of NAVA. Safety features, NAVA terminology, and clinical application of NAVA to unload respiratory musculature are presented. The use of the Edi signal as a respiratory vital sign for conventional ventilation is discussed. The results of animal and adult studies are briefly summarized and detailed descriptions of all NAVA-related research in pediatric and neonatal patients are provided. Further studies are needed to determine whether NAVA will have significant impact on the overall outcomes of neonates.

Abstract
Introduction Experimental work provides insight into potential lung protective strategies. The objective of this study was to evaluate markers of ventilator-induced lung injury after two different ventilation approaches: (1) a “conventional” lung-protective strategy (volume control (VC) with low tidal volume, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and paralysis), (2) a physiological approach with spontaneous breathing, permitting synchrony, variability and a liberated airway. For this, we used non-invasive Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NIV-NAVA), with the hypothesis that liberation of upper airways and the ventilator’s integration with lung protective reflexes would be equally lung protective. Methods In this controlled and randomized in vivo laboratory study, 25 adult White New Zealand rabbits were studied, including five non-ventilated control animals. The twenty animals with aspiration-induced lung injury were randomized to ventilation with either VC (6 mL/kg, PEEP 5 cm H2O, and paralysis) or NIV-NAVA for six hours (PEEP = zero because of leaks). Markers of lung function, lung injury, vital signs and ventilator parameters were assessed. Results At the end of six hours of ventilation (n = 20), there were no significant differences between VC and NIV-NAVA for vital signs, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, lung wet-to-dry ratio and broncho-alveolar Interleukin 8 (Il-8). Plasma IL-8 was higher in VC (P <0.05). Lung injury score was lower for NIV-NAVA (P = 0.03). Dynamic lung compliance recovered after six hours in NIV-NAVA but not in VC (P <0.05). During VC, peak pressures increased from 9.2 ± 2.4 cm H2O (hour 1) to 12.3 ± 12.3 cm H2O (hour 6) (P <0.05). During NIV-NAVA, the tracheal end-expiratory pressure was similar to the end-expiratory pressure during VC. Two animals regurgitated during NIV-NAVA, without clinical consequences, and survived the protocol. Conclusions In experimental acute lung injury, NIV-NAVA is as lung-protective as VC 6 ml/kg with PEEP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Medical complications are common among patients with stroke. However, little is known about the potential interrelationship among them. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the association between common in-hospital medical complications after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). METHODS We analyzed patients enrolled in the China National Stroke Registry from 2007 to 2008. The occurrence of 11 common stroke-associated medical complications during acute hospitalization was prospectively registered. Multivariable analysis using generalized estimation equation was performed to assess association between medical complications in AIS and ICH cohort, respectively. RESULTS A total of 14 702 patients with AIS and 5221 patients with ICH were enrolled. The median age was 65 years (interquartile range, 55-74 years), and 38.1% were female. The median length of hospital stay was 14 days (interquartile range, 10-20 days) for AIS and 18 days (interquartile range, 11-26 days) for ICH. Pneumonia was the most common medical complication after AIS (11.4%) and ICH (16.8%). In the AIS cohort, after adjusting for potential confounders, pneumonia was significantly associated with development of gastrointestinal bleeding (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 8.35; 95% confidence interval [CI], 6.27-11.1; P<0.001), decubitus ulcer (adjusted OR, 5.31; 95% CI, 3.39-8.31; P<0.001), deep vein thrombosis (adjusted OR, 4.27; 95% CI, 2.41-7.59; P<0.001), epileptic seizure (adjusted OR, 3.96; 95% CI, 2.67-5.88; P<0.001), urinary tract infection (adjusted OR, 3.34; 95% CI, 2.73-4.10; P<0.001), atrial fibrillation/flutter (adjusted OR, 3.17; 95% CI, 2.58-3.90; P<0.001), and recurrent stroke (adjusted OR, 2.65; 95% CI, 2.07-3.40; P<0.001). Similar significant association between pneumonia and development of several nonpneumonia medical complications was verified in ICH cohort as well. CONCLUSIONS Pneumonia is closely associated with the development of several nonpneumonia medical complications after AIS and ICH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation (MV) may cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and may thereby contribute to fatal multiple organ failure. We tested the hypothesis that injurious MV of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pre-injured lungs induces myocardial inflammation and further dysfunction ex vivo, through calcium (Ca2+)-dependent mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS N = 35 male anesthetized and paralyzed male Wistar rats were randomized to intratracheal instillation of 2 mg/kg LPS or nothing and subsequent MV with lung-protective settings (low tidal volume (Vt) of 6 mL/kg and 5 cmH2O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)) or injurious ventilation (high Vt of 19 mL/kg and 1 cmH2O PEEP) for 4 hours. Myocardial function ex vivo was evaluated in a Langendorff setup and Ca2+ exposure. Key mediators were determined in lung and heart at the mRNA level. RESULTS Instillation of LPS and high Vt MV impaired gas exchange and, particularly when combined, increased pulmonary wet/dry ratio; heat shock protein (HSP)70 mRNA expression also increased by the interaction between LPS and high Vt MV. For the heart, C-X-C motif ligand (CXCL)1 and Toll-like receptor (TLR)2 mRNA expression increased, and ventricular (LV) systolic pressure, LV developed pressure, LV +dP/dtmax and contractile responses to increasing Ca2+ exposure ex vivo decreased by LPS. High Vt ventilation aggravated the effects of LPS on myocardial inflammation and dysfunction but not on Ca2+ responses. CONCLUSIONS Injurious MV by high Vt aggravates the effects of intratracheal instillation of LPS on myocardial dysfunction, possibly through enhancing myocardial inflammation via pulmonary release of HSP70 stimulating cardiac TLR2, not involving Ca2+ handling and sensitivity.

Abstract
Despite over 40 years of research, there is no specific lung-directed therapy for the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Although much has evolved in our understanding of its pathogenesis and factors affecting patient outcome, supportive care with mechanical ventilation remains the cornerstone of treatment. Perhaps the most important advance in ARDS research has been the recognition that mechanical ventilation, although necessary to preserve life, can itself aggravate or cause lung damage through a variety of mechanisms collectively referred to as ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). This improved understanding of ARDS and VILI has been important in designing lung-protective ventilatory strategies aimed at attenuating VILI and improving outcomes. Considerable effort has been made to enhance our mechanistic understanding of VILI and to develop new ventilatory strategies and therapeutic interventions to prevent and ameliorate VILI with the goal of improving outcomes in patients with ARDS. In this review, we will review the pathophysiology of VILI, discuss a number of novel physiological approaches for minimizing VILI, therapies to counteract biotrauma, and highlight a number of experimental studies to support these concepts.

Abstract
The electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) is measured by a specialized nasogastric/orogastric tube positioned in the esophagus at the level of the crural diaphragm. Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) uses the Edi signal as a neural trigger and intrabreath controller to synchronize mechanical ventilatory breaths with the patient's respiratory drive and to proportionally support the patient's respiratory efforts on a breath-by-breath basis. NAVA improves patient-ventilator interaction and synchrony even in the presence of large air leaks, and might therefore be an optimal option for noninvasive ventilation in neonates.

Abstract
PURPOSE The efficacy of partial ventilatory support modes that allow spontaneous breathing in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is unclear. The objective of this scoping review was to assess the effects of partial ventilatory support on mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, and both hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) lengths of stay (LOS) for patients with ALI and ARDS; the secondary objective was to describe physiologic effects on hemodynamics, respiratory system and other organ function. METHODS MEDLINE (1966-2009), Cochrane, and EmBase (1980-2009) databases were searched using common ventilator modes as keywords and reference lists from retrieved manuscripts hand searched for additional studies. Two researchers independently reviewed and graded the studies using a modified Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine grading system. Studies in adult ALI/ARDS patients were included for primary objectives and pre-clinical studies for supporting evidence. RESULTS Two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were identified, in addition to six prospective cohort studies, one retrospective cohort study, one case control study, 41 clinical physiologic studies and 28 pre-clinical studies. No study was powered to assess mortality, one RCT showed shorter ICU length of stay, and the other demonstrated more ventilator free days. Beneficial effects of preserved spontaneous breathing were mainly physiological effects demonstrated as improvement of gas exchange, hemodynamics and non-pulmonary organ perfusion and function. CONCLUSIONS The use of partial ventilatory support modalities is often feasible in patients with ALI/ARDS, and may be associated with short-term physiological benefits without appreciable impact on clinically important outcomes.

Abstract
Conventional mechanical ventilators rely on pneumatic pressure and flow sensors and controllers to detect breaths. New modes of mechanical ventilation have been developed to better match the assistance delivered by the ventilator to the patient's needs. Among these modes, neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) delivers a pressure that is directly proportional to the integral of the electrical activity of the diaphragm recorded continuously through an esophageal probe. In clinical settings, NAVA has been chiefly compared with pressure-support ventilation, one of the most popular modes used during the weaning phase, which delivers a constant pressure from breath to breath. Comparisons with proportional-assist ventilation, which has numerous similarities, are lacking. Because of the constant level of assistance, pressure-support ventilation reduces the natural variability of the breathing pattern and can be associated with asynchrony and/or overinflation. The ability of NAVA to circumvent these limitations has been addressed in clinical studies and is discussed in this report. Although the underlying concept is fascinating, several important questions regarding the clinical applications of NAVA remain unanswered. Among these questions, determining the optimal NAVA settings according to the patient's ventilatory needs and/or acceptable level of work of breathing is a key issue. In this report, based on an investigator-initiated round table, we review the most recent literature on this topic and discuss the theoretical advantages and disadvantages of NAVA compared with other modes, as well as the risks and limitations of NAVA.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW New developments in mechanical ventilation have focused on increasing the patient's control of the ventilator by implementing information on lung mechanics and respiratory drive. Effort-adapted modes of assisted breathing are presented and their potential advantages are discussed. RECENT FINDINGS Adaptive support ventilation, proportional assist ventilation with load adjustable gain factors and neurally adjusted ventilatory assist are ventilatory modes that follow the concept of adapting the assist to a defined target, instantaneous changes in respiratory drive or lung mechanics. Improved patient ventilator interaction, sufficient unloading of the respiratory muscles and increased comfort have been recently associated with these ventilator modalities. There are, however, scarce data with regard to outcome improvement, such as length of mechanical ventilation, ICU stay or mortality (commonly accepted targets to demonstrate clinical superiority). SUMMARY Within recent years, a major step forward in the evolution of assisted (effort-adapted) modes of mechanical ventilation was accomplished. There is growing evidence that supports the physiological concept of closed-loop effort-adapted assisted modes of mechanical ventilation. However, at present, the translation into a clear outcome benefit remains to be proven. In order to fill the knowledge gap that impedes the broader application, larger randomized controlled trials are urgently needed. However, with clearly proven drawbacks of conventional assisted modes such as pressure support ventilation, it is probably about time to leave these modes introduced decades ago behind.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of a wide range of assistance levels during neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and pressure support ventilation (PSV) on respiratory pattern, breathing variability, and incidence of tidal volumes (V (T)) above 8 and 10 ml/kg in acute respiratory failure patients. METHODS Eight increasing NAVA levels (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 5 cmH(2)O/μV) and four increasing pressure support (PSV) levels (4, 8, 12, and 16 cmH(2)O) were applied to obtain 10 min of stable recordings in 15 patients. RESULTS One out of 15 patients did not sustain the NAVA levels of 3, 4, and 5 cmH(2)O/μV and was excluded. The 5 cmH(2)O/μV NAVA level was not tolerated by three patients and it was excluded. Increasing NAVA levels were associated with decreased diaphragm electrical activity (EAdi), and, at variance with PSV, with small changes in V (T), no changes in respiratory rate (RR), and increases in V (T) and EAdi variability. At high NAVA levels, an increase in V (T) variability was associated with increased incidence of V (T) above 8 and 10 ml/kg and an uncomfortable respiratory pattern in some patients. CONCLUSIONS Increasing NAVA levels were associated with no effect on RR, small increase in V (T), and increase in V (T) and EAdi variability. Effective decrease in EAdi occurred at NAVA levels below 2-2.5 cmH(2)O/μV, while preserving respiratory variability and low risks of V (T) above 8 or 10 ml/kg.

Abstract
Despite a very large body of investigations, no effective pharmacological therapies have been found to cure acute lung injury. Hence, supportive care with mechanical ventilation remains the cornerstone of treatment. However, several experimental and clinical studies showed that mechanical ventilation, especially at high tidal volumes and pressures, can cause or aggravate ALI. Therefore, current clinical recommendations are developed with the aim of avoiding ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) by limiting tidal volume and distending ventilatory pressure according to the results of the ARDS Network trial, which has been to date the only intervention that has showed success in decreasing mortality in patients with ALI/ARDS. In the past decade, a very large body of investigations has determined significant achievements on the pathophysiological knowledge of VILI. Therefore, new perspectives, which will be reviewed in this article, have been defined in terms of the efficiency and efficacy of recognizing, monitoring and treating VILI, which will eventually lead to further significant improvement of outcome in patients with ARDS.

Abstract
PURPOSE Diaphragmatic electrical activity (EA(di)), reflecting respiratory drive, and its feedback control might be impaired in critical illness-associated polyneuromyopathy (CIPM). We aimed to evaluate whether titration and prolonged application of neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA), which delivers pressure (P (aw)) in proportion to EA(di), is feasible in CIPM patients. METHODS Peripheral and phrenic nerve electrophysiology studies were performed in 15 patients with clinically suspected CIPM and in 14 healthy volunteers. In patients, an adequate NAVA level (NAVAal) was titrated daily and was implemented for a maximum of 72 h. Changes in tidal volume (V (t)) generation per unit of EA(di) (V (t)/EA(di)) were assessed daily during standardized tests of neuro-ventilatory efficiency (NVET). RESULTS In patients (median [range], 66 [44-80] years), peripheral electrophysiology studies confirmed CIPM. Phrenic nerve latency (PNL) was prolonged and diaphragm compound muscle action potential (CMAP) was reduced compared with healthy volunteers (p < 0.05 for both). NAVAal could be titrated in all but two patients. During implementation of NAVAal for 61 (37-64) h, the EA(di) amplitude was 9.0 (4.4-15.2) μV, and the V (t) was 6.5 (3.7-14.3) ml/kg predicted body weight. V (t), respiratory rate, EA(di), PaCO(2), and hemodynamic parameters remained unchanged, while PaO(2)/FiO(2) increased from 238 (121-337) to 282 (150-440) mmHg (p = 0.007) during NAVAal. V (t)/EA(di) changed by -10 (-46; +31)% during the first NVET and by -0.1 (-26; +77)% during the last NVET (p = 0.048). CONCLUSION In most patients with CIPM, EA(di) and its feedback control are sufficiently preserved to titrate and implement NAVA for up to 3 days. Whether monitoring neuro-ventilatory efficiency helps inform the weaning process warrants further evaluation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), one of the most serious complications of mechanical ventilation (MV), can impact patients' clinical prognoses. Compared to control ventilation, preserving spontaneous breathing can improve many physiological features in ventilated patients, such as gas distribution, cardiac performance, and ventilation-perfusion matching. However, the effect of spontaneous breathing on VILI is unknown. The goal of this study was to compare the effects of spontaneous breathing and control ventilation on lung injury in mechanically-ventilated healthy rabbits. METHODS Sixteen healthy New Zealand white rabbits were randomly placed into a spontaneous breathing group (SB Group) and a control ventilation group (CV Group). Both groups were ventilated for eight hours using biphasic positive airway pressure (BIPAP) with similar ventilator parameters: inspiration pressure (PI) resulting in a tidal volume (VT) of 10 to 15 ml/kg, inspiratory-to-expiratory ratio of 1:1, positive end-expiration pressure (PEEP) of 2 cmH₂O, and FiO₂ of 0.5. Inflammatory markers in blood serum, lung homogenates and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), total protein levels in BALF, mRNA expressions of selected cytokines in lung tissue, and lung injury histopathology scores were determined. RESULTS Animals remained hemodynamically stable throughout the entire experiment. After eight hours of MV, compared to the CV Group, the SB Group had lower PaCO₂ values and ratios of dead space to tidal volume, and higher lung compliance. The levels of cytokines in blood serum and BALF in both groups were similar, but spontaneous breathing led to significantly lower cytokine mRNA expressions in lung tissues and lower lung injury histological scores. CONCLUSIONS Preserving spontaneous breathing can not only improve ventilatory function, but can also attenuate selected markers of VILI in the mechanically-ventilated healthy lung.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To present an updated discussion of those aspects of controlled positive pressure breathing and retained spontaneous regulation of breathing that impact the management of patients whose tissue oxygenation is compromised by acute lung injury. RECENT FINDINGS The recent introduction of ventilation techniques geared toward integrating natural breathing rhythms into even the earliest phase of acute respiratory distress syndrome support (e.g., airway pressure release, proportional assist ventilation, and neurally adjusted ventilatory assist), has stimulated a burst of new investigations. SUMMARY Optimizing gas exchange, avoiding lung injury, and preserving respiratory muscle strength and endurance are vital therapeutic objectives for managing acute lung injury. Accordingly, comparing the physiology and consequences of breathing patterns that preserve and eliminate breathing effort has been a theme of persisting investigative interest throughout the several decades over which it has been possible to sustain cardiopulmonary life support outside the operating theater.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite improvements in outcome due to lung protective ventilation strategies using low tidal volumes, the mortality rate from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains unacceptably high, ranging from 34 to 64%. The predominant cause of death in ARDS is not severe hypoxemia, which is one of the defining criteria of ARDS, but multiple organ failure (MOF). RECENT FINDINGS In view of the relationship between ARDS and MOF, two different but complementary pathophysiological perspectives will be developed in this article: ARDS as a consequence of MOF, and ARDS as the cause of MOF. This framework may be useful in guiding the development of novel therapeutic strategies that ultimately improve the outcome of ARDS and sepsis patients. SUMMARY ARDS is a severe lung disease characterized by a very complex pathophysiology, involving not only the respiratory system but also nonpulmonary distal organs. Elucidation of the pathophysiological mechanisms bi-directionally linking MOF to ARDS appears to be a promising area of research that hopefully will lead to improved outcomes for these devastating conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Strategies to attenuate ventilator-associated lung injury have been tested in various experimental methods of acute lung injury (ALI). Conclusions are often drawn from physiologic and biologic effects, but the influence of the model on these results is not known. Our aim in this study was to characterize frequently used models of experimental ALI. METHODS Twenty Sprague Dawley rats were anesthetized and their lungs mechanically ventilated for 5 hours. Three models of ALI (surfactant washout, acid aspiration, and high tidal volume ventilation) were investigated with regard to hemodynamics, respiratory mechanics, gas exchange, lung pathology, and inflammatory reactions. Animals without ALI served as controls. RESULTS Five animals in each group were analyzed. Dynamic compliance and Pao(2)/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio decreased by at least 50% in all groups after 1 hour. Whereas compliance remained decreased in all models, oxygenation returned to baseline values in the lavage group after 5 hours. Diffuse alveolar damage was worse in the high tidal volume model and was not different between the control and lavage animals. Interleukin-6 was increased in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in the aspiration and high tidal volume models. CONCLUSIONS Although comparable physiologic effects meeting acute respiratory distress syndrome criteria were achieved in all models, the biologic responses varied among lung injury models. The acid aspiration model created both respiratory and inflammatory responses typically seen in ALI; these data suggest that it may be the most clinically applicable model to study the intermediate-term effects of ventilator-associated lung injury in rats.

Abstract
Pediatric practitioners face unique challenges when attempting to translate or adapt adult-derived evidence regarding ventilation practices for acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome into pediatric practice. Fortunately or unfortunately, there appears to be selective adoption of adult practices for pediatric mechanical ventilation, many of which pose considerable challenges or uncertainty when translated to pediatrics. These differences, combined with heterogeneous management strategies within pediatric critical care, can complicate clinical practice and make designing robust clinical trials in pediatric acute respiratory failure particularly difficult. These issues surround the lack of explicit ventilator protocols in pediatrics, either computer or paper based; differences in modes of conventional ventilation and perceived marked differences in the approach to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation; challenges with patient recruitment; the shortcomings of the definition of acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome; the more reliable yet still somewhat unpredictable relationship between lung injury severity and outcome; and the reliance on potentially biased surrogate outcome measures, such as ventilator-free days, for all pediatric trials. The purpose of this review is to highlight these challenges, discuss pertinent work that has begun to address them, and propose potential solutions or future investigations that may help facilitate comprehensive trials on pediatric mechanical ventilation and define clinical practice standards.
