Ruiz-Botella M, Manrique S, Gomez J, Bodí M. Advancing ICU patient care with a Real-Time predictive model for mechanical Power to mitigate VILI. Int J Med Inform 2024; 189:105511. [PMID: 38851133 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijmedinf.2024.105511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) in Intensive Care Units (ICU) significantly increases the risk of Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI), necessitating careful management of mechanical power (MP). This study aims to develop a real-time predictive model of MP utilizing Artificial Intelligence to mitigate VILI. METHODOLOGY A retrospective observational study was conducted, extracting patient data from Clinical Information Systems from 2018 to 2022. Patients over 18 years old with more than 6 h of IMV were selected. Continuous data on IMV variables, laboratory data, monitoring, procedures, demographic data, type of admission, reason for admission, and APACHE II at admission were extracted. The variables with the highest correlation to MP were used for prediction and IMV data was grouped in 15-minute intervals using the mean. A mixed neural network model was developed to forecast MP 15 min in advance, using IMV data from 6 h before the prediction and current patient status. The model's ability to predict future MP was analyzed and compared to a baseline model predicting the future value of MP as equal to the current value. RESULTS The cohort consisted of 1967 patients after applying inclusion criteria, with a median age of 63 years and 66.9 % male. The deep learning model achieved a mean squared error of 2.79 in the test set, indicating a 20 % improvement over the baseline model. It demonstrated high accuracy (94 %) in predicting whether MP would exceed a critical threshold of 18 J/min, which correlates with increased mortality. The integration of this model into a web platform allows clinicians real-time access to MP predictions, facilitating timely adjustments to ventilation settings. CONCLUSIONS The study successfully developed and integrated in clinical practice a predictive model for MP. This model will assist clinicians allowing for the adjustment of ventilatory parameters before lung damage occurs.

Abstract
Liver transplantation (LT) has emerged as an effective therapy for severe forms of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF), an entity characterized by the development of multiorgan failure and high short-term mortality. The aim of critical care management of ACLF patients is to rapidly treat precipitating events and aggressively support failing organs to ensure that patients may successfully undergo LT or, less frequently, recover. Malnutrition and sarcopenia are frequently present, adversely impacting the prognosis of these patients. Management of critical care patients with ACLF is complex and requires the participation of different specialties. Once the patient is stabilized, a rapid evaluation for salvage LT should be performed because the time window for LT is often narrow. The development of sepsis and prolonged organ support may preclude LT or diminish its chances of success. The current review describes strategies to bridge severe ACLF patients to LT, highlights the minimal evaluation required for listing and the currently suggested contraindications to proceed with LT, and addresses different aspects of management during the perioperative and early posttransplant period.

Abstract
In acute respiratory distress syndrome, the role of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury is controversial. Randomized trials comparing higher versus lower PEEP strategies failed to demonstrate a clinical benefit. This may depend on the inter-individually variable potential for lung recruitment (i.e. recruitability), which would warrant PEEP individualization to balance alveolar recruitment and the unavoidable baby lung overinflation produced by high pressure. Many techniques have been used to assess recruitability, including lung imaging, multiple pressure-volume curves and lung volume measurement. The Recruitment-to-Inflation ratio (R/I) has been recently proposed to bedside assess recruitability without additional equipment. R/I assessment is a simplified technique based on the multiple pressure-volume curve concept: it is measured by monitoring respiratory mechanics and exhaled tidal volume during a 10-cmH2O one-breath derecruitment maneuver after a short high-PEEP test. R/I scales recruited volume to respiratory system compliance, and normalizes recruitment to a proxy of actual lung size. With modest R/I (<0.3-0.4), setting low PEEP (5-8 cmH2O) may be advisable; with R/I>0.6-0.7, high PEEP (≥15 cmH2O) can be considered, provided that airway and/or transpulmonary plateau pressure do not exceed safety limits. In case of intermediate R/I (≈0.5), a more granular assessment of recruitability may be needed. This could be accomplished with advanced monitoring tools, like sequential lung volume measurement with granular R/I assessment or electrical impedance tomography monitoring during a decremental PEEP trial. In this review, we discuss R/I rationale, applications and limits, providing insights on its clinical use for PEEP selection in moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Abstract
The incidence of acute respiratory insufficiency has continued to increase among patients admitted to modern-day cardiovascular intensive care units. Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) remains the mainstay of treatment for these patients. Alterations in intrathoracic pressure during PPV has distinct effects on both the right and left ventricles, affecting cardiovascular performance. Lung-protective ventilation (LPV) minimizes the risk of further lung injury through ventilator-induced lung injury and, hence, an understanding of LPV and its cardiopulmonary interactions is beneficial for cardiologists.

Abstract
PURPOSE Assessing efficacy of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) in optimizing positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients to enhance respiratory system mechanics and prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), compared to traditional methods. METHODS We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis, spanning literature from January 2012 to May 2023, sourced from Scopus, PubMed, MEDLINE (Ovid), Cochrane, and LILACS, evaluated EIT-guided PEEP strategies in ARDS versus conventional methods. Thirteen studies (3 randomized, 10 non-randomized) involving 623 ARDS patients were analyzed using random-effects models for primary outcomes (respiratory mechanics and mechanical power) and secondary outcomes (PaO2/FiO2 ratio, mortality, stays in intensive care unit (ICU), ventilator-free days). RESULTS EIT-guided PEEP significantly improved lung compliance (n = 941 cases, mean difference (MD) = 4.33, 95% confidence interval (CI) [2.94, 5.71]), reduced mechanical power (n = 148, MD = - 1.99, 95% CI [- 3.51, - 0.47]), and lowered driving pressure (n = 903, MD = - 1.20, 95% CI [- 2.33, - 0.07]) compared to traditional methods. Sensitivity analysis showed consistent positive effect of EIT-guided PEEP on lung compliance in randomized clinical trials vs. non-randomized studies pooled (MD) = 2.43 (95% CI - 0.39 to 5.26), indicating a trend towards improvement. A reduction in mortality rate (259 patients, relative risk (RR) = 0.64, 95% CI [0.45, 0.91]) was associated with modest improvements in compliance and driving pressure in three studies. CONCLUSIONS EIT facilitates real-time, individualized PEEP adjustments, improving respiratory system mechanics. Integration of EIT as a guiding tool in mechanical ventilation holds potential benefits in preventing ventilator-induced lung injury. Larger-scale studies are essential to validate and optimize EIT's clinical utility in ARDS management.

Abstract
Background Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a common condition in the intensive care unit (ICU) with a high mortality rate, yet the diagnosis rate remains low. Recent studies have increasingly highlighted the role of aging in the occurrence and progression of ARDS. This study is committed to investigating the pathogenic mechanisms of cellular and genetic changes in elderly ARDS patients, providing theoretical support for the precise treatment of ARDS. Methods Gene expression profiles for control and ARDS samples were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, while aging-related genes (ARGs) were sourced from the Human Aging Genomic Resources (HAGR) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were subjected to functional enrichment analysis to understand their roles in ARDS and aging. The Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) and machine learning pinpointed key modules and marker genes, with ROC curves illustrating their significance. The expression of four ARDS-ARDEGs was validated in lung samples from aged mice with ARDS using qRT-PCR. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) investigated the signaling pathways and immune cell infiltration associated with TYMS expression. Single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-Seq) explored gene-level differences among cells to investigate intercellular communication during ARDS onset and progression. Results ARDEGs are involved in cellular responses to DNA damage stimuli, inflammatory reactions, and cellular senescence pathways. The MEmagenta module exhibited a significant correlation with elderly ARDS patients. The LASSO, RRF, and XGBoost algorithms were employed to screen for signature genes, including CKAP2, P2RY14, RBP2, and TYMS. Further validation emphasized the potential role of TYMS in the onset and progression of ARDS. Immune cell infiltration indicated differential proportion and correlations with TYMS expression. SnRNA-Seq and cell-cell communication analysis revealed that TYMS is highly expressed in endothelial cells, and the SEMA3 signaling pathway primarily mediates cell communication between endothelial cells and other cells. Conclusion Endothelial cell damage associated with aging could contribute to ARDS progression by triggering inflammation. TYMS emerges as a promising diagnostic biomarker and potential therapeutic target for ARDS.

Abstract
Background This study aims to investigate the clinical outcome between high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy in mild to moderate hypoxemic patients on the first ICU day and to develop a predictive model of 48-h intubation. Methods The study included adult patients from the MIMIC III and IV databases who first initiated HFNC or NIV therapy due to mild to moderate hypoxemia (100 < PaO2/FiO2 ≤ 300). The 48-h and 30-day intubation rates were compared using cross-sectional and survival analysis. Nine machine learning and six ensemble algorithms were deployed to construct the 48-h intubation predictive models, of which the optimal model was determined by its prediction accuracy. The top 10 risk and protective factors were identified using the Shapley interpretation algorithm. Result A total of 123,042 patients were screened, of which, 673 were from the MIMIC IV database for ventilation therapy comparison (HFNC n = 363, NIV n = 310) and 48-h intubation predictive model construction (training dataset n = 471, internal validation set n = 202) and 408 were from the MIMIC III database for external validation. The NIV group had a lower intubation rate (23.1% vs. 16.1%, p = 0.001), ICU 28-day mortality (18.5% vs. 11.6%, p = 0.014), and in-hospital mortality (19.6% vs. 11.9%, p = 0.007) compared to the HFNC group. Survival analysis showed that the total and 48-h intubation rates were not significantly different. The ensemble AdaBoost decision tree model (internal and external validation set AUROC 0.878, 0.726) had the best predictive accuracy performance. The model Shapley algorithm showed Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), acute physiology scores (APSIII), the minimum and maximum lactate value as risk factors for early failure and age, the maximum PaCO2 and PH value, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), the minimum PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and PaO2 value as protective factors. Conclusion NIV was associated with lower intubation rate and ICU 28-day and in-hospital mortality. Further survival analysis reinforced that the effect of NIV on the intubation rate might partly be attributed to the other impact factors. The ensemble AdaBoost decision tree model may assist clinicians in making clinical decisions, and early organ function support to improve patients' SOFA, APSIII, GCS, PaCO2, PaO2, PH, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and lactate values can reduce the early failure rate and improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) has played a crucial role in the medical field, particularly in anesthesia and in critical care medicine (CCM) settings. MV has evolved significantly since its inception over 70 years ago and the future promises even more advanced technology. In the past, ventilation was provided manually, intermittently, and it was primarily used for resuscitation or as a last resort for patients with severe respiratory or cardiovascular failure. The earliest MV machines for prolonged ventilatory support and oxygenation were large and cumbersome. They required a significant amount of skills and expertise to operate. These early devices had limited capabilities, battery, power, safety features, alarms, and therefore these often caused harm to patients. Moreover, the physiology of MV was modified when mechanical ventilators moved from negative pressure to positive pressure mechanisms. Monitoring systems were also very limited and therefore the risks related to MV support were difficult to quantify, predict and timely detect for individual patients who were necessarily young with few comorbidities. Technology and devices designed to use tracheostomies versus endotracheal intubation evolved in the last century too and these are currently much more reliable. In the present, positive pressure MV is more sophisticated and widely used for extensive period of time. Modern ventilators use mostly positive pressure systems and are much smaller, more portable than their predecessors, and they are much easier to operate. They can also be programmed to provide different levels of support based on evolving physiological concepts allowing lung-protective ventilation. Monitoring systems are more sophisticated and knowledge related to the physiology of MV is improved. Patients are also more complex and elderly compared to the past. MV experts are informed about risks related to prolonged or aggressive ventilation modalities and settings. One of the most significant advances in MV has been protective lung ventilation, diaphragm protective ventilation including noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Health care professionals are familiar with the use of MV and in many countries, respiratory therapists have been trained for the exclusive purpose of providing safe and professional respiratory support to critically ill patients. Analgo-sedation drugs and techniques are improved, and more sedative drugs are available and this has an impact on recovery, weaning, and overall patients' outcome. Looking toward the future, MV is likely to continue to evolve and improve alongside monitoring techniques and sedatives. There is increasing precision in monitoring global "patient-ventilator" interactions: structure and analysis (asynchrony, desynchrony, etc). One area of development is the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in ventilator technology. AI can be used to monitor patients in real-time, and it can predict when a patient is likely to experience respiratory distress. This allows medical professionals to intervene before a crisis occurs, improving patient outcomes and reducing the need for emergency intervention. This specific area of development is intended as "personalized ventilation." It involves tailoring the ventilator settings to the individual patient, based on their physiology and the specific condition they are being treated for. This approach has the potential to improve patient outcomes by optimizing ventilation and reducing the risk of harm. In conclusion, MV has come a long way since its inception, and it continues to play a critical role in anesthesia and in CCM settings. Advances in technology have made MV safer, more effective, affordable, and more widely available. As technology continues to improve, more advanced and personalized MV will become available, leading to better patients' outcomes and quality of life for those in need.

Abstract
Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an important pulmonary complication in brain-injured patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). We aimed to evaluate the incidence and association between ARDS and clinical outcomes in patients with different forms of acute brain injury requiring IMV in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: This was a preplanned secondary analysis of a prospective, multicenter, international cohort study (NCT03400904). We included brain-injured patients receiving IMV for ≥ 24 h. ARDS was the main exposure of interest and was identified during index ICU admission using the Berlin definition. We examined the incidence and adjusted association of ARDS with ICU mortality, ICU length of stay, duration of IMV, and extubation failure. Outcomes were evaluated using mixed-effect logistic regression and cause-specific Cox proportional hazards models. Results: 1492 patients from 67 hospitals and 16 countries were included in the analysis, of whom 137 individuals developed ARDS (9.2% of overall cohort). Across countries, the median ARDS incidence was 5.1% (interquartile range [IQR] 0-10; range 0-27.3). ARDS was associated with increased ICU mortality (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.29-5.48), longer ICU length of stay (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 0.59; 95% CI, 0.48-0.73), and longer duration of IMV (adjusted HR 0.54; 95% CI, 0.44-0.67). The association between ARDS and extubation failure approached statistical significance (adjusted HR 1.48; 95% CI 0.99-2.21). Higher ARDS severity was associated with incrementally longer ICU length of stay and longer cumulative duration of IMV. Findings remained robust in a sensitivity analysis evaluating the magnitude of unmeasured confounding. Conclusions: In this cohort of acutely brain-injured patients, the incidence of ARDS was similar to that reported in other mixed cohorts of critically ill patients. Development of ARDS was associated with worse outcomes.

Time-Controlled Adaptive Ventilation (TCAV): a personalized strategy for lung protection. Respir Res 2024; 25:37.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) alters the dynamics of lung inflation during mechanical ventilation. Repetitive alveolar collapse and expansion (RACE) predisposes the lung to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Two broad approaches are currently used to minimize VILI: (1) low tidal volume (LVT) with low-moderate positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP); and (2) open lung approach (OLA). The LVT approach attempts to protect already open lung tissue from overdistension, while simultaneously resting collapsed tissue by excluding it from the cycle of mechanical ventilation. By contrast, the OLA attempts to reinflate potentially recruitable lung, usually over a period of seconds to minutes using higher PEEP used to prevent progressive loss of end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and RACE. However, even with these protective strategies, clinical studies have shown that ARDS-related mortality remains unacceptably high with a scarcity of effective interventions over the last two decades. One of the main limitations these varied interventions demonstrate to benefit is the observed clinical and pathologic heterogeneity in ARDS. We have developed an alternative ventilation strategy known as the Time Controlled Adaptive Ventilation (TCAV) method of applying the Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) mode, which takes advantage of the heterogeneous time- and pressure-dependent collapse and reopening of lung units. The TCAV method is a closed-loop system where the expiratory duration personalizes VT and EELV. Personalization of TCAV is informed and tuned with changes in respiratory system compliance (CRS) measured by the slope of the expiratory flow curve during passive exhalation. Two potentially beneficial features of TCAV are: (i) the expiratory duration is personalized to a given patient's lung physiology, which promotes alveolar stabilization by halting the progressive collapse of alveoli, thereby minimizing the time for the reopened lung to collapse again in the next expiration, and (ii) an extended inspiratory phase at a fixed inflation pressure after alveolar stabilization gradually reopens a small amount of tissue with each breath. Subsequently, densely collapsed regions are slowly ratcheted open over a period of hours, or even days. Thus, TCAV has the potential to minimize VILI, reducing ARDS-related morbidity and mortality.

Driving pressure of respiratory system and lung stress in mechanically ventilated patients with active breathing. Crit Care 2024; 28:19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During control mechanical ventilation (CMV), the driving pressure of the respiratory system (ΔPrs) serves as a surrogate of transpulmonary driving pressure (ΔPlung). Expiratory muscle activity that decreases end-expiratory lung volume may impair the validity of ΔPrs to reflect ΔPlung. This prospective observational study in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) ventilated with proportional assist ventilation (PAV+), aimed to investigate: (1) the prevalence of elevated ΔPlung, (2) the ΔPrs-ΔPlung relationship, and (3) whether dynamic transpulmonary pressure (Plungsw) and effort indices (transdiaphragmatic and respiratory muscle pressure swings) remain within safe limits. METHODS Thirty-one patients instrumented with esophageal and gastric catheters (n = 22) were switched from CMV to PAV+ and respiratory variables were recorded, over a maximum of 24 h. To decrease the contribution of random breaths with irregular characteristics, a 7-breath moving average technique was applied. In each patient, measurements were also analyzed per deciles of increasing lung elastance (Elung). Patients were divided into Group A, if end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure (PLEI) increased as Elung increased, and Group B, which showed a decrease or no change in PLEI with Elung increase. RESULTS In 44,836 occluded breaths, ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O was infrequently observed [0.0% (0.0-16.9%) of measurements]. End-expiratory lung volume decrease, due to active expiration, was associated with underestimation of ΔPlung by ΔPrs, as suggested by a negative linear relationship between transpulmonary pressure at end-expiration (PLEE) and ΔPlung/ΔPrs. Group A included 17 and Group B 14 patients. As Elung increased, ΔPlung increased mainly due to PLEI increase in Group A, and PLEE decrease in Group B. Although ΔPrs had an area receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.87 (95% confidence intervals 0.82-0.92, P < 0.001) for ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O, this was due exclusively to Group A [0.91 (0.86-0.95), P < 0.001]. In Group B, ΔPrs showed no predictive capacity for detecting ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O [0.65 (0.52-0.78), P > 0.05]. Most of the time Plungsw and effort indices remained within safe range. CONCLUSION In patients with ARDS ventilated with PAV+, injurious tidal lung stress and effort were infrequent. In the presence of expiratory muscle activity, ΔPrs underestimated ΔPlung. This phenomenon limits the usefulness of ΔPrs as a surrogate of tidal lung stress, regardless of the mode of support.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by the heterogeneous distribution of lung aeration along a gravitational direction due to increased lung density. Therefore, the lung available for ventilation is usually limited to ventral, nondependent lung regions and has been called the "baby" lung. In ARDS, ventilator-induced lung injury is known to occur in nondependent "baby" lungs, as ventilation is shifted to ventral, nondependent lung regions, increasing stress and strain. To protect this nondependent "baby" lung, the clinician targets and limits global parameters such as tidal volume and plateau pressure. In addition, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is used to prevent dorsal, dependent atelectasis and, if successful, increases the size of the baby lung and lessens its susceptibility to injury from inspiratory stretch. Although many clinical trials have been performed in patients with ARDS over the last two decades, there are few successfully showing benefits on mortality (ie, prone positioning and neuromuscular blocking agents). These disappointing results contrast with other medical disciplines, especially in oncology, where the heterogeneity of diseases is recognized widely and precision medicine has been promoted. Thus, lung-protective ventilation strategies need to take an innovative approach that accounts for the heterogeneity of injured lungs. This article summarizes ventilator-induced lung injury and ARDS and discusses how to implement precision medicine in the field of ARDS. Potentially useful methods to individualize PEEP with esophageal balloon manometry, lung recruitability, and electrical impedance tomography were discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common life-threatening condition in critically ill patients. Itis also an important public health issue because it can cause substantial mortality and health care burden worldwide. The objective of this study was to investigate therisk factors that impact ARDS mortality in a medical center in Taiwan. METHODS This was a single center, observational study thatretrospectively analyzed data from adults in 6 intensive care units (ICUs) at Taichung Veterans General Hospital in Taiwan from 1st October, 2018to30th September, 2019. Patients needing invasive mechanical ventilation and meeting the Berlin definition criteria were included for analysis. RESULTS A total of 1,778 subjects were screened in 6 adult ICUs and 370 patients fulfilled the criteria of ARDS in the first 24 hours of the ICU admission. Among these patients, the prevalenceof ARDS was 20.8% and the overall hospital mortality rate was 42.2%. The mortality rates of mild, moderate and severe ARDS were 35.9%, 43.9% and 46.5%, respectively. In a multivariate logistic regression model, combination of driving pressure (DP) > 14cmH2O and oxygenation (P/F ratio)≤150 was an independent predictor of mortality (OR2.497, 95% CI 1.201-5.191, p = 0.014). Patients with worse oxygenation and a higher driving pressure had the highest hospital mortality rate(p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS ARDS is common in ICUs and the mortality rate remains high. Combining oxygenation and respiratory mechanics may better predict the outcomes of these ARDS patients.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) presents as an acute inflammatory lung injury characterized by refractory hypoxemia and non-cardiac pulmonary edema. An estimated 10% of patients in the intensive care unit and 25% of those who are mechanically ventilated are diagnosed with ARDS. Increased awareness is warranted as mortality rates remain high and delays in diagnosing ARDS are common. The COVID-19 pandemic highlights the importance of understanding ARDS management. Treatment of ARDS can be challenging due to the complexity of the disease state and conflicting existing evidence. Therefore, it is imperative that pharmacists understand both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment strategies to optimize patient care. This narrative review provides a critical evaluation of current literature describing management practices for ARDS. A review of treatment modalities and supportive care strategies will be presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with a high mortality rate and longer mechanical ventilation. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of ventilation with ultra-low tidal volume (ULTV) compared with low tidal volume (LTV) in patients with COVID-19-related ARDS. METHODS This study was a multicentre, open-label, parallel-group, randomised trial conducted in ten intensive care units in France. Eligible participants were aged 18 years or older, received invasive mechanical ventilation for COVID-19 (confirmed by RT-PCR), had ARDS according to the Berlin definition, a partial pressure of arterial oxygen to inspiratory oxygen fraction (PaO2/FiO2) ratio of 150 mm Hg or less, a tidal volume (VT) of 6·0 mL/kg predicted bodyweight or less, and received continuous intravenous sedation. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) using randomisation blocks to receive ULTV (intervention group) aiming for VT of 4·0 mL/kg predicted bodyweight or LTV (control group) aiming for VT 6·0 mL/kg predicted bodyweight. Participants, investigators, and outcome assessors were not masked to group assignment. The primary outcome was a ranked composite score based on all-cause mortality at day 90 as the first criterion and ventilator-free days among patients alive at day 60 as the second criterion. Effect size was computed with the unmatched win ratio, on the basis of pairwise prioritised comparison of primary outcome components between every patient in the ULTV group and every patient in the LTV group. The unmatched win ratio was calculated as the ratio of the number of pairs with more favourable outcome in the ULTV group over the number of pairs with less favourable outcome in the ULTV group. Primary analysis was done in the modified intention-to-treat population, which included all participants who were randomly assigned and not lost to follow-up. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04349618. FINDINGS Between April 15, 2020, and April 13, 2021, 220 patients were included and five (2%) were excluded. 215 patients were randomly assigned (106 [49%] to the ULTV group and 109 [51%] to the LTV group). 58 (27%) patients were female and 157 (73%) were male. The median age was 68 years (IQR 60-74). 214 patients completed follow-up (one lost to follow-up in the ULTV group) and were included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis. The primary outcome was not significantly different between groups (unmatched win ratio in the ULTV group 0·85 [95% CI 0·60 to 1·19]; p=0·38). 46 (44%) of 105 patients in the ULTV group and 43 (39%) of 109 in the LTV group died by day 90 (absolute difference 4% [-9 to 18]; p=0·52). The rate of severe respiratory acidosis in the first 28 days was higher in the ULTV group than in the LTV group (35 [33%] vs 14 [13%]; absolute difference 20% [95% CI 9 to 31]; p=0·0004). INTERPRETATION In patients with moderate-to-severe COVID-19-related ARDS, there was no significant difference with ULTV compared with LTV in the composite score based on mortality and ventilator-free days among patients alive at day 60. These findings do not support the systematic use of ULTV in patients with COVID-19-related ARDS. FUNDING French Ministry of Solidarity and Health and Hospices Civils de Lyon.

Abstract
Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening respiratory failure syndrome with diverse etiologies characterized by increased permeability of alveolar-capillary membranes, pulmonary edema, and acute onset hypoxemia. During the ARDS acute phase, neutrophil infiltration into the alveolar space results in uncontrolled release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and proteases, overwhelming antioxidant defenses and causing alveolar epithelial and lung endothelial injury. Objectives: To investigate the therapeutic potential of a novel recombinant human Cu-Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) fusion protein in protecting against ROS injury and for aerosolized SOD delivery to treat Escherichia coli induced ARDS. Methods: Fusion proteins incorporating human Cu-Zn-SOD (hSOD1), with (pep1-hSOD1-his) and without (hSOD1-his) a fused hyaluronic acid-binding peptide, were expressed in E. coli. Purified proteins were evaluated in in vitro assays with human bronchial epithelial cells and through aerosolized delivery to the lung of an E. coli-induced ARDS rat model. Results: SOD proteins exhibited high SOD activity in vitro and protected bronchial epithelial cells from oxidative damage. hSOD1-his and pep1-hSOD1-his retained SOD activity postnebulization and exhibited no adverse effects in the rat. Pep1-hSOD1-his administered through instillation or nebulization to the lung of an E. coli-induced pneumonia rat improved arterial oxygenation and lactate levels compared to vehicle after 48 hours. Static lung compliance was improved when the pep1-hSOD1-his protein was delivered by instillation. White cell infiltration to the lung was significantly reduced by aerosolized delivery of protein, and reduction of cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1, interferon-gamma, and interleukin 6 pro-inflammatory cytokine concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage was observed. Conclusions: Aerosol delivery of a novel recombinant modified SOD protein reduces oxidant injury and attenuates E. coli induced lung injury in rats. The results provide a strong basis for further investigation of the therapeutic potential of hSOD1 in the treatment of ARDS.

Abstract
Background Corticosteroids are common treatments in certain diseases that cause acute respiratory failure (ARF) and are sometimes administered empirically for patients with critical ARF. Associations between changes in clinical parameters following initiation of steroid pulse therapy and mortality in patients with ARF have not been previously investigated. Methods This was a single-center and retrospective cohort study. Parameters on the day of methylprednisolone pulse therapy initiation (day 1) and the day following the end of methylprednisolone therapy (day 4) in patients who were admitted because of ARF and underwent methylprednisolone pulse therapy between October 2008 and July 2021 were reviewed. Results A total of 98 patients were included in our analysis, and 45 (46%) died at our hospital. Change in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from day 1 to day 4 (ΔLDH) was significantly higher in the in-hospital death group than in the survival group (-68 IU/L in the survival group versus 46 IU/L in the in-hospital death group, p < 0.01). Multivariate logistic analyses showed that age >75 years old (odds ratio (OR), 3.88; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.38-10.9; p < 0.01), previously diagnosed interstitial lung disease (OR, 3.43; 95% CI, 1.10-10.7; p = 0.03), ΔLDH > 0 (OR, 6.47; 95% CI, 2.30-18.2; p < 0.01), and ΔSequential Organ Failure Assessment score > 0 (OR, 3.06; 95% CI, 1.10-8.51; p = 0.03) were significantly associated with in-hospital mortality. Conclusions This study showed that elevation of serum LDH level during methylprednisolone pulse therapy was a predictive factor for high in-hospital mortality in patients with ARF.

First Stabilize and then Gradually Recruit: A Paradigm Shift in Protective Mechanical Ventilation for Acute Lung Injury. J Clin Med 2023; 12:4633. [PMID: 37510748 PMCID: PMC10380509 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12144633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with a heterogeneous pattern of injury throughout the lung parenchyma that alters regional alveolar opening and collapse time constants. Such heterogeneity leads to atelectasis and repetitive alveolar collapse and expansion (RACE). The net effect is a progressive loss of lung volume with secondary ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Previous concepts of ARDS pathophysiology envisioned a two-compartment system: a small amount of normally aerated lung tissue in the non-dependent regions (termed "baby lung"); and a collapsed and edematous tissue in dependent regions. Based on such compartmentalization, two protective ventilation strategies have been developed: (1) a "protective lung approach" (PLA), designed to reduce overdistension in the remaining aerated compartment using a low tidal volume; and (2) an "open lung approach" (OLA), which first attempts to open the collapsed lung tissue over a short time frame (seconds or minutes) with an initial recruitment maneuver, and then stabilize newly recruited tissue using titrated positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). A more recent understanding of ARDS pathophysiology identifies regional alveolar instability and collapse (i.e., hidden micro-atelectasis) in both lung compartments as a primary VILI mechanism. Based on this understanding, we propose an alternative strategy to ventilating the injured lung, which we term a "stabilize lung approach" (SLA). The SLA is designed to immediately stabilize the lung and reduce RACE while gradually reopening collapsed tissue over hours or days. At the core of SLA is time-controlled adaptive ventilation (TCAV), a method to adjust the parameters of the airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) modality. Since the acutely injured lung at any given airway pressure requires more time for alveolar recruitment and less time for alveolar collapse, SLA adjusts inspiratory and expiratory durations and inflation pressure levels. The TCAV method SLA reverses the open first and stabilize second OLA method by: (i) immediately stabilizing lung tissue using a very brief exhalation time (≤0.5 s), so that alveoli simply do not have sufficient time to collapse. The exhalation duration is personalized and adaptive to individual respiratory mechanical properties (i.e., elastic recoil); and (ii) gradually recruiting collapsed lung tissue using an inflate and brake ratchet combined with an extended inspiratory duration (4-6 s) method. Translational animal studies, clinical statistical analysis, and case reports support the use of TCAV as an efficacious lung protective strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia is reportedly associated with air leak syndrome (ALS), including mediastinal emphysema and pneumothorax, and has a high mortality rate. In this study, we compared values obtained every minute from ventilators to clarify the relationship between ventilator management and risk of developing ALS. METHODS This single-center, retrospective, observational study was conducted at a tertiary care hospital in Tokyo, Japan, over a 21-month period. Information on patient background, ventilator data, and outcomes was collected from adult patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia on ventilator management. Patients who developed ALS within 30 days of ventilator management initiation (ALS group) were compared with those who did not (non-ALS group). RESULTS Of the 105 patients, 14 (13%) developed ALS. The median positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) difference was 0.20 cmH2O (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.20-0.20) and it was higher in the ALS group than in the non-ALS group (9.6 [7.8-20.2] vs. 9.3 [7.3-10.2], respectively). For peak pressure, the median difference was -0.30 cmH2O (95% CI, -0.30 - -0.20) (20.4 [17.0-24.4] in the ALS group vs. 20.9 [16.7-24.6] in the non-ALS group). The mean pressure difference of 0.0 cmH2O (95% CI, 0.0-0.0) (12.7 [10.9-14.6] vs. 13.0 [10.3-15.0], respectively) was also higher in the non-ALS group than in the ALS group. The difference in single ventilation volume per ideal body weight was 0.71 mL/kg (95% CI, 0.70-0.72) (8.17 [6.79-9.54] vs. 7.43 [6.03-8.81], respectively), and the difference in dynamic lung compliance was 8.27 mL/cmH2O (95% CI, 12.76-21.95) (43.8 [28.2-68.8] vs. 35.7 [26.5-41.5], respectively); both were higher in the ALS group than in the non-ALS group. CONCLUSIONS There was no association between higher ventilator pressures and the development of ALS. The ALS group had higher dynamic lung compliance and tidal volumes than the non-ALS group, which may indicate a pulmonary contribution to ALS. Ventilator management that limits tidal volume may prevent ALS development.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although there has been extensive research on mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), treatment remains mainly supportive. Recent studies and new ventilatory modes have been proposed to manage patients with ARDS; however, the clinical impact of these strategies remains uncertain and not clearly supported by guidelines. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an overview and update on ventilatory management for patients with ARDS. AREAS COVERED This article reviews the literature regarding mechanical ventilation in ARDS. A comprehensive overview of the principal settings for the ventilator parameters involved is provided as well as a report on the differences between controlled and assisted ventilation. Additionally, new modes of assisted ventilation are presented and discussed. The evidence concerning rescue strategies, including recruitment maneuvers and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, is analyzed. PubMed, EBSCO, and the Cochrane Library were searched up until June 2023, for relevant literature. EXPERT OPINION Available evidence for mechanical ventilation in cases of ARDS suggests the use of a personalized mechanical ventilation strategy. Although promising, new modes of assisted mechanical ventilation are still under investigation and guidelines do not recommend rescue strategies as the standard of care. Further research on this topic is required.

Abstract
Background Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of mechanical ventilation settings is a cornerstone of the early phase of the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This study aimed to evaluate the adherence to currently recommended lung-protective ventilator strategies (tidal volume, plateau pressure, driving pressure, prone positioning, and positive end-expiratory pressure [PEEP]) for adults with moderate-to-severe ARDS in a tertiary care setup, thereby evaluating if lung-protective ventilation is associated with improved outcomes. Methods This was an observational study over 1 year in ventilated moderate-to-severe ARDS participants. All participants were mechanically ventilated when required using the protocol followed by the ARDS Network low-tidal volume lung-protective ventilation strategy and monitored. Results The total number of participants in the study was 32. Septic shock was the most common cause of ARDS. The mean duration of intensive care unit (ICU) stay was 6.13 (±5.4) days, mean ventilator days were 3.66 (±3.75) days and mortality rate of 71.8%.Adherence to low-tidal volume was 78.12% with an improvement of 36% in the adherent group (P = 0.06). Adherence to high PEEP was 34.38% with a survival of 73% in the adherent group (P = 0.0004). Adherence to prone ventilation was 18.75% with a survival of 33% in the adherent group (P = 0.7). Conclusion Intensivists should take an extra effort to focus on evidence-based ventilator strategies and increase adherence to these recommendations in their ICUs to improve patient survival.

Abstract
Liver disease accounts for 2 million deaths and is responsible for 4% of all deaths (1 out of every 25 deaths worldwide); approximately 2/3 of all liver related deaths occur in men. Deaths are largely attributable to complications of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, with acute hepatitis accounting for a smaller proportion of deaths. The most common causes of cirrhosis worldwide are related to viral hepatitis, alcohol, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Hepatotropic viruses are the etiological factor in most cases of acute hepatitis, but drug-induced liver injury increasingly accounts for a significant proportion of cases. This iteration of the global burden of liver disease is an update of the 2019 version and focuses mainly on areas where significant new information is available like alcohol-associated liver disease, NAFLD, viral hepatitis, and HCC. We also devote a separate section to the burden of liver disease in Africa, an area of the world typically neglected in such documents.

A reduced glycine-to-taurine ratio of conjugated serum bile acids signifies an adaptive mechanism and is an early marker of outcome in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Intern Emerg Med 2023; 18:607-615.

Abstract
The accumulation of Bile Acids (BA) in serum is a common finding in critically ill patients and has been found in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), where liver and biliary function could be essentially affected by the underlying disease process and subsequent therapeutic measures. We hypothesized that the glycine-to-taurine conjugation ratio (G/T-ratio) is predictive of outcome in ARDS patients and would support our previously published hypothesis that the BA profile reflects a (mal-) adaptive response of bile acid production when suffering from a disease or syndrome such as ARDS. In 70 patients with ARDS, we determined conjugated BA fractions from protein precipitated serum samples using a LC-MS/MS method and calculated the G/T-ratios, which were then compared with a healthy control group. In patients with ARDS, the G/T-ratio was markedly lower compared to the control group, due to an increase in taurine-conjugated BA. The G/T ratio was lowest on the day of diagnosis and increased steadily during the following days (control = 3.80 (2.28-4.44); day 0 = 1.79 (1.31-3.86); day 3 = 2.91 (1.71-5.68); day 5 = 2.28 (1.25-7.85), significant increases were found between day 0 and day 3 (p = 0.019) and between day 0 and day 5 (p = 0.031). G/T-ratio was significantly correlated with SAPS II score on day 0 (p = 0.009) and day 3 (p = 0.036) and with survival (p = 0.006). Regarding survival, the receiver-operator characteristic revealed an area-under-the-curve of 0.713 (CI 0.578-0.848), the Youden index revealed a G/T-ratio cut-off level of 2.835 (sensitivity 78.4%, specificity 63.2%). Our findings further support our previously published hypothesis that alterations in BA profiles represent adaptive mechanisms in states of severe disease. Our current study adds the finding of an increase in taurine-conjugated BA expressed by a decrease in the G/T-ratio of conjugated BA in serum. The G/T-ratio on day 3 using a threshold G/T-ratio of 2.8 was even associated with survival (p = 0.006); these results are yet to be confirmed by subsequent studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Almitrine, a drug enhancing hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, has been proposed as a rescue therapy for refractory hypoxemia in COVID related acute respiratory distress syndrome (C-ARDS). We aimed at investigating the response to almitrine depending on the cause of ARDS (COVID vs. non-COVID). METHODS Monocenter retrospective study from 2014 to 2021. All patients diagnosed with moderate to severe ARDS and treated with almitrine as rescue therapy for refractory hypoxemia were studied. Factor independently associated with oxygenation response to almitrine infusion were determined. RESULTS Sixty patients with ARDS and treated with almitrine were analyzed, 36 (60%) due to SARS-CoV-2 infection and 24 (40%) due to other causes. Baseline PaO2/FiO2 was 78 [61-101] mmHg, 76% had at least one prone positioning before the start of almitrine infusion. Median PaO2/FiO2 increased by +38 [7-142] mmHg (+61% [10-151]) after almitrine infusion. PaO2/FiO2 increased by +134 [12-186] mmHg in non-COVID ARDS (NC-ARDS) and by +19 [8-87] mmHg in C-ARDS. The increase in PaO2/FiO2 was lower in C-ARDS than in NC-ARDS (P=0.013). In multivariable analysis, C-ARDS, non-invasive ventilation and concomitant use of norepinephrine were independently associated with a decreased oxygenation response to almitrine infusion. CONCLUSIONS Our study reports a highly variable response to almitrine infusion in ARDS patients with refractory hypoxemia. Independent factors associated with a reduced oxygenation response to almitrine infusion were: COVID ARDS, concomitant use of norepinephrine, and non-invasive ventilatory strategy.

Abstract
Over the last decade, the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has made considerable progress both regarding supportive and pharmacologic therapies. Lung protective mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of ARDS management. Current recommendations on mechanical ventilation in ARDS include the use of low tidal volume (VT) 4-6 mL/kg of predicted body weight, plateau pressure (PPLAT) < 30 cmH2O, and driving pressure (∆P) < 14 cmH2O. Moreover, positive end-expiratory pressure should be individualized. Recently, variables such as mechanical power and transpulmonary pressure seem promising for limiting ventilator-induced lung injury and optimizing ventilator settings. Rescue therapies such as recruitment maneuvers, vasodilators, prone positioning, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal have been considered for patients with severe ARDS. Regarding pharmacotherapies, despite more than 50 years of research, no effective treatment has yet been found. However, the identification of ARDS sub-phenotypes has revealed that some pharmacologic therapies that have failed to provide benefits when considering all patients with ARDS can show beneficial effects when these patients were stratified into specific sub-populations; for example, those with hyperinflammation/hypoinflammation. The aim of this narrative review is to provide an overview on current advances in the management of ARDS from mechanical ventilation to pharmacological treatments, including personalized therapy.

Mechanical Ventilation in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury: Is it so Different? Neurocrit Care 2023; 38:178-191.

Abstract
Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) frequently require invasive mechanical ventilation and admission to an intensive care unit. Ventilation of patients with TBI poses unique clinical challenges, and careful attention is required to ensure that the ventilatory strategy (including selection of appropriate tidal volume, plateau pressure, and positive end-expiratory pressure) does not cause significant additional injury to the brain and lungs. Selection of ventilatory targets may be guided by principles of lung protection but with careful attention to relevant intracranial effects. In patients with TBI and concomitant acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), adjunctive strategies include sedation optimization, neuromuscular blockade, recruitment maneuvers, prone positioning, and extracorporeal life support. However, these approaches have been largely extrapolated from studies in patients with ARDS and without brain injury, with limited data in patients with TBI. This narrative review will summarize the existing evidence for mechanical ventilation in patients with TBI. Relevant literature in patients with ARDS will be summarized, and where available, direct data in the TBI population will be reviewed. Next, practical strategies to optimize the delivery of mechanical ventilation and determine readiness for extubation will be reviewed. Finally, future directions for research in this evolving clinical domain will be presented, with considerations for the design of studies to address relevant knowledge gaps.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV), mostly defined as mechanical ventilation > 72 h after lung transplantation with or without tracheostomy, is associated with increased mortality. Nevertheless, the predictive factors of PMV after lung transplant remain unclear. The present study aimed to develop a novel scoring system to identify PMV after lung transplantation. METHODS A total of 141 patients who underwent lung transplantation were investigated in this study. The patients were divided into PMV and non-prolonged ventilation (NPMV) groups. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess factors associated with PMV. A risk nomogram was then established based on the multivariate analysis, and model performance was further examined regarding its calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. RESULTS Eight factors were finally identified to be significantly associated with PMV by the multivariate analysis and therefore were included as risk factors in the nomogram as follows: the body mass index (BMI, P = 0.036); primary diagnosis as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF, P = 0.038); pulmonary hypertension (PAH, P = 0.034); primary graft dysfunction grading (PGD, P = 0.011) at T0; cold ischemia time (CIT P = 0.012); and three ventilation parameters (peak inspiratory pressure [PIP, P < 0.001], dynamic compliance [Cdyn, P = 0.001], and P/F ratio [P = 0.015]) at T0. The nomogram exhibited superior discrimination ability with an area under the curve of 0.895. Furthermore, both calibration curve and decision-curve analysis indicated satisfactory performance. CONCLUSION A novel nomogram to predict individual risk of receiving PMV for patients after lung transplantation was established, which may guide preventative measures for tackling this adverse event.

Abstract
Immunocompromised status, with and without stem cell transplant, confers a worse prognosis in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome. An improved understanding of the biochemical profile of immunocompromised children with acute respiratory distress syndrome would inform whether specific pathways are targetable, or merely bystanders, in order to improve outcomes in this high-risk subgroup. OBJECTIVES We aimed to identify a biomarker profile of immunocompromised children, with and without stem cell transplant, independent of illness severity. DESIGN SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS This was a secondary analysis of a prospective cohort study of intubated children with Berlin-defined acute respiratory distress syndrome with existing biomarker measurements conducted in a large academic PICU between 2014 and 2019. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Biomarker levels were compared between immunocompetent and immunocompromised children, with and without stem cell transplant, both prior to and after adjusting for severity of illness. RESULTS In 333 children with acute respiratory distress syndrome, 84 were immunocompromised, of whom 39 had a stem cell transplant. Circulating neutrophil levels were strongly correlated with biomarkers, with 14 of 18 measured proteins differentially expressed in patients with versus without neutropenia. In order to identify biomarker levels independent of severity of illness, acute respiratory distress syndrome etiology, and neutrophil levels, we computed predicted (log-transformed) biomarker levels after adjusting for confounders using linear regression and then compared these severity-adjusted levels between immunocompetent and immunocompromised (with and without stem cell transplant) subjects using analyses of variance and post hoc Bonferroni. After multivariable adjustment, 11 biomarkers were higher in immunocompromised subjects without stem cell transplant, relative to immunocompetent, implicating endotheliopathy (angiopoietin-2), tissue damage (procollagen type III N-terminal peptide), and innate immunity. A single biomarker, C-C motif chemokine ligand 22, was lower in immunocompromised subjects with and without stem cell transplant. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Immunocompromised children with acute respiratory distress syndrome were characterized by elevations in pro-inflammatory and endothelial damage biomarkers. Our study provides insight into mechanisms underlying the molecular heterogeneity of this population and potentially identifies targetable pathways to mitigate their increased mortality risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total serum bilirubin (TBIL) levels are a risk factor in critically ill patients. However, the relationship between the dynamics of TBIL and the prognosis of acute respiratory failure (ARF) patients is unclear. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the impact of different levels of TBIL during hospitalization on mortality in ARF patients. METHODS This study used a retrospective cohort study. We extracted information on ARF patients from the Medical Information Bank for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III (version 1.4). We used propensity score matching (PSM) to adjust for the level of potential baseline-level differences between groups. Cox regression was used to analyze mortality risk factors in patients with ARF. Subgroup analysis was used to explore special populations. RESULTS 2673 patients were included in the study, and 19.7% developed hyperbilirubinemia (TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL) during their hospitalization. After PSM, multivariate Cox regression showed a 50% and 135% increased risk of death for a maximum value of TBIL ≥ 5 mg/dL and minimum value of TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL during hospitalization, respectively, compared to the control population. In addition, age ≥ 65 years, previous comorbid malignancies, respiratory rate ≥ 22 beats/min, SpO2 ≥ 95, BUN ≥ 20 mg/dL, lactate ≥ 5 mmol/L, platelet < 100 * 10 ^ 9/L were independent risk factors for 1-year mortality in ARF patients. Subgroup analysis showed that high bilirubin had a greater effect on patients aged less than 65 years (P for interaction < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Hyper TBIL (TBIL max ≥ 5 mg/dL or TBIL min ≥ 2 mg/dL) was an independent risk factor for 1-year mortality in patients with ARF. This study suggests that clinicians should be aware of TBIL levels and intervene early in these patients.

Abstract
Alcohol misuse has been associated with increased morbidity in the setting of pulmonary infections, including the need for critical care resource utilization and development of delirium. How alcohol misuse impacts morbidity and outcomes among patients admitted with COVID-19 pneumonia is not well described. We sought to determine if alcohol misuse was associated with an increased need for critical care resources and development of delirium among patients hospitalized with COVID-19 pneumonia. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Twelve University of Colorado hospitals between March 2020 and April 2021. PATIENTS Adults with a COVID-19 diagnosis. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary outcome was admission to the ICU. Secondary outcomes included need for mechanical ventilation, development of delirium, and in-hospital mortality. Alcohol misuse was defined by International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision codes. Of 5,979 patients hospitalized with COVID-19, 26% required ICU admission and 15.4% required mechanical ventilation. Delirium developed in 4.5% and 10.5% died during hospitalization. Alcohol misuse was identified in 4%. In analyses adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, diabetes, and liver disease, alcohol misuse was associated with increased odds of ICU admission (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 1.46; p < 0.01), mechanical ventilation (aOR, 1.43; p = 0.03), and delirium (aOR, 5.55; p < 0.01) compared with patients without misuse. Mortality rates were not associated with alcohol misuse alone, although the presence of both alcohol misuse and in-hospital delirium significantly increased odds of in-hospital death (aOR, 2.60; p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Among patients hospitalized with COVID-19, alcohol misuse was associated with increased utilization of critical care resources including ICU admission and mechanical ventilation. Delirium was an important modifiable risk factor associated with worse outcomes in hospitalized patients with alcohol misuse, including increased odds of death.

Effect of mechanical power on mortality in invasively ventilated ICU patients without the acute respiratory distress syndrome: An analysis of three randomised clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanical power of ventilation (MP) has an association with outcome in invasively ventilated patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Whether a similar association exists in invasively ventilated patients without ARDS is less certain. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of mechanical power with mortality in ICU patients without ARDS. DESIGN This was an individual patient data analysis that uses the data of three multicentre randomised trials. SETTING This study was performed in academic and nonacademic ICUs in the Netherlands. PATIENTS One thousand nine hundred and sixty-two invasively ventilated patients without ARDS were included in this analysis. The median [IQR] age was 67 [57 to 75] years, 706 (36%) were women. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome was the all-cause mortality at day 28. Secondary outcomes were the all-cause mortality at day 90, and length of stay in ICU and hospital. RESULTS At day 28, 644 patients (33%) had died. Hazard ratios for mortality at day 28 were higher with an increasing MP, even when stratified for its individual components (driving pressure ( P < 0.001), tidal volume ( P < 0.001), respiratory rate ( P < 0.001) and maximum airway pressure ( P = 0.001). Similar associations of mechanical power (MP) were found with mortality at day 90, lengths of stay in ICU and hospital. Hazard ratios for mortality at day 28 were not significantly different if patients were stratified for MP, with increasing levels of each individual component. CONCLUSION In ICU patients receiving invasive ventilation for reasons other than ARDS, MP had an independent association with mortality. This finding suggests that MP holds an added predictive value over its individual components, making MP an attractive measure to monitor and possibly target in these patients.

Abstract
Background Whether targeting the driving pressure (∆P) when adjusting the tidal volume in mechanically ventilated patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) may decrease the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury remains a matter of research. In this study, we assessed the effect of a ∆P-guided ventilation on the mechanical power. Methods We prospectively included adult patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS. Positive end expiratory pressure was set by the attending physician and kept constant during the study. Tidal volume was first adjusted to target 6 ml/kg of predicted body weight (PBW-guided ventilation) and subsequently modified within a range from 4 to 10 ml/kg PBW to target a ∆P between 12 and 14 cm H2O. The respiratory rate was then re-adjusted within a range from 12 to 40 breaths/min until EtCO2 returned to its baseline value (∆P-guided ventilation). Mechanical power was computed at each step. Results Fifty-one patients were included between December 2019 and May 2021. ∆P-guided ventilation was feasible in all but one patient. The ∆P during PBW-guided ventilation was already within the target range of ∆P-guided ventilation in five (10%) patients, above in nine (18%) and below in 36 (72%). The change from PBW- to ∆P-guided ventilation was thus accompanied by an overall increase in tidal volume from 6.1 mL/kg PBW [5.9–6.2] to 7.7 ml/kg PBW [6.2–8.7], while respiratory rate was decreased from 29 breaths/min [26–32] to 21 breaths/min [16–28] (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). ∆P-guided ventilation was accompanied by a significant decrease in mechanical power from 31.5 J/min [28–35.7] to 28.8 J/min [24.6–32.6] (p < 0.001), representing a relative decrease of 7% [0–16]. With ∆P-guided ventilation, the PaO2/FiO2 ratio increased and the ventilatory ratio decreased. Conclusion As compared to a conventional PBW-guided ventilation, a ∆P-guided ventilation strategy targeting a ∆P between 12 and 14 cm H2O required to change the tidal volume in 90% of the patients. Such ∆P-guided ventilation significantly reduced the mechanical power. Whether this physiological observation could be associated with clinical benefit should be assessed in clinical trials.

[PMID: 35943160 PMCID: PMC9529260 DOI: 10.1152/ajplung.00477.2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) protects against acute lung injury (ALI), but the receptor that mediates this effect is not known. Transgenic mice with 0 (knockout), 1 (heterozygote), or 2 (wild-type) functional copies of Npr3, the gene that encodes for natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C), were treated with intravenous infusion of ANP or saline vehicle before oropharyngeal aspiration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA103) or saline vehicle. Lung injury was assessed 4 h following aspiration by measurement of lung wet/dry (W/D) weight, whole lung leukocyte and cytokine levels, and protein, leukocyte, and cytokine concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). PA103 induced acute lung injury as evidenced by increases in lung W/D ratio and protein concentration in BALF. The severity of PA103-induced lung injury did not differ between NPR-C genotypes. Treatment with intravenous ANP infusion reduced PA103-induced increases in lung W/D and BALF protein concentration in all three NPRC genotypes. PA103 increased the percentage of leukocytes that were neutrophils and cytokine levels in whole lung and BALF in NPR-C wild-type and knockout mice. This effect was blunted by ANP in wild-type mice but not in the NPR-C knockout mice. NPR-C does not mediate the protective effect of ANP on endothelial cell permeability in settings of PA103-induced injury but may mediate the effect of ANP on inhibition of the recruitment of neutrophils to the lung and thereby attenuate the release of inflammatory cytokines.

Taraxasterol Inhibits Hyperactivation of Macrophages to Alleviate the Sepsis-induced Inflammatory Response of ARDS Rats. Cell Biochem Biophys 2022; 80:763-770. [PMID: 36070121 DOI: 10.1007/s12013-022-01092-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 08/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
To explore the effect and mechanism of taraxasterol on sepsis-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: the control group, model (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) group, lipopolysaccharide+taraxasterol (LPS + TXL) group, and lipopolysaccharide+ulinastatin (LPS + UTI) group. The model of sepsis-induced ARDS was established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS. The lung water content of the rats in each group was determined by the dry/wet ratio. Pathology of rat lung tissue was observed through H&E staining. Wright staining was applied to count the number of neutrophils, macrophages, and total cells. ELISA was utilized to measure the levels of the inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Biochemical detection was adopted to check the levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in lung tissue. Western blotting was performed to check the protein expression of IL-12, iNOS, Arg-1, and Mrc1 in lung tissue. Compared with the LPS group, both taraxasterol and ulinastatin significantly decreased lung tissue water content, improved lung tissue injury, reduced the number of neutrophils, macrophages and total cells, and decreased the level of inflammatory factors. In addition, taraxasterol and ulinastatin also reduced the content of MPO and the expression of IL-12 and iNOS and increased the activity of SOD and CAT as well as the protein expression of Arg-1 and Mrc1. Taraxasterol can suppress macrophage M1 polarization to alleviate the inflammatory response and oxidative stress, thereby treating sepsis-induced ARDS.

Using real-time visualization system for data-driven decision support to achieve lung protective strategy: a retrospective observational study. Crit Care 2022; 26:253. [PMID: 35996117 PMCID: PMC9395891 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-022-04091-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Although lung protective strategy and adjunctive intervention are associated with improved survival in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the implementation of effective therapies remains low. This study aimed to evaluate whether the use of business intelligence (BI) for real-time data visualization is associated with an improvement in lung protective strategy and adjunctive therapy. Methods A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted on patients with ARDS admitted between September 2020 and June 2021 at two intensive care units (ICUs) of a tertiary referral hospital in Taiwan. BI was imported for data visualization and integration to assist in clinical decision in one of the ICUs. The primary outcomes were the implementation of low tidal volume ventilation (defined as tidal volume/predicted body weight ≤ 8 mL/kg) within 24 h from ARDS onset. The secondary outcomes included ICU and hospital mortality rates. Results Among the 1201 patients admitted to the ICUs during the study period, 148 (12.3%) fulfilled the ARDS criteria, with 86 patients in the BI-assisted group and 62 patients in the standard-of-care (SOC) group. Disease severity was similar between the two groups. The application of low tidal volume ventilation strategy was significantly improved in the BI-assisted group compared with that in the SOC group (79.1% vs. 61.3%, p = 0.018). Despite their ARDS and disease severity, the BI-assisted group tended to achieve low tidal volume ventilation. The ICU and hospital mortality were lower in the BI-assisted group. Conclusions The use of real-time visualization system for data-driven decision support was associated with significantly improved compliance to low tidal volume ventilation strategy, which enhanced the outcomes of patients with ARDS in the ICU.

Abstract
A hallmark of ARDS is progressive shrinking of the ‘baby lung,’ now referred to as the ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) ‘vortex.’ Reducing the risk of the VILI vortex is the goal of current ventilation strategies; unfortunately, this goal has not been achieved nor has mortality been reduced. However, the temporal aspects of a mechanical breath have not been considered. A brief expiration prevents alveolar collapse, and an extended inspiration can recruit the atelectatic lung over hours. Time-controlled adaptive ventilation (TCAV) is a novel ventilator approach to achieve these goals, since it considers many of the temporal aspects of dynamic lung mechanics.

Relation of Ischemic Heart Disease to Outcomes in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Am J Cardiol 2022; 176:24-29.

Abstract
Patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) are often excluded from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) clinical trials. As a result, little is known about the impact of IHD in this population. We sought to assess the association between IHD and clinical outcomes in patients with ARDS. Participants from 4 ARDS randomized controlled trials with shared study criteria, definitions, and end points were included. Using multivariable logistic regression, we assessed for the association between IHD and a primary outcome of 60-day mortality. Secondary outcomes included 90-day mortality, 28-day ventilator-free days, and 28-day organ failure. Among 1,909 patients, 102 had a history of IHD (5.4%). Patients with IHD were more likely to be older and male (p <0.05). Noncardiac co-morbidities, severity of illness, and other markers of ARDS severity were not statistically different (all, p >0.05). Patients with IHD had a higher 60-day (39.2% vs 23.3%, p <0.001) and 90-day (40.2% vs 24.0%, p <0.001) mortality, and experienced more frequent renal (45.1% vs 32.0%, p = 0.006) and hepatic (35.3% vs 25.2%, p = 0.023) failure. After multivariable adjustment, 60-day (odds ratio [OR] 1.76; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07 to 2.89, p = 0.025) and 90-day (OR 1.74; 95% CI: 1.06 to 2.85, p = 0.028) mortality remained higher. IHD was associated with 10% fewer ventilator-free days (incidence rate ratio 0.90; 95% CI: 0.85 to 0.96, p = 0.001). In conclusion, co-morbid IHD was associated with higher mortality and fewer ventilator-free days in patients with ARDS. Future studies are needed to identify predictors of mortality and improve treatment paradigms in this critically ill subgroup of patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ventilatory management and general supportive care of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the adult population have led to significant clinical improvements, but morbidity and mortality remain high. Pharmacologic strategies acting on the coagulation cascade, inflammation, oxidative stress, and endothelial cell injury have been targeted in the last decade for patients with ARDS, but only a few of these have shown potential benefits with a meaningful clinical response and improved patient outcomes. The lack of availability of specific pharmacologic treatments for ARDS can be attributed to its complex pathophysiology, different risk factors, huge heterogeneity, and difficult classification into specific biological phenotypes and genotypes. AREAS COVERED In this narrative review, we briefly discuss the relevance and current advances in pharmacologic treatments for ARDS in adults and the need for the development of new pharmacological strategies. EXPERT OPINION Identification of ARDS phenotypes, risk factors, heterogeneity, and pathophysiology may help to design clinical trials personalized according to ARDS-specific features, thus hopefully decreasing the rate of failed clinical pharmacologic trials. This concept is still under clinical investigation and needs further development.

Abstract
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is indicated in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and severely impaired gas exchange despite evidence-based lung protective ventilation, prone positioning and other parts of the standard algorithm for treating such patients. Extracorporeal support can facilitate ultra-lung-protective ventilation, meaning even lower volumes and pressures than standard lung-protective ventilation, by directly removing carbon dioxide in patients needing injurious ventilator settings to maintain sufficient gas exchange. Injurious ventilation results in ventilator-induced lung injury, which is one of the main determinants of mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome. Marked reductions in the intensity of ventilation to the lowest tolerable levels under extracorporeal support may be achieved and could thereby potentially mitigate ventilator-induced lung injury and theoretically patient self-inflicted lung injury in spontaneously breathing patients with high respiratory drive. However, the benefits of this strategy may be counterbalanced by the use of continuous deep sedation and even neuromuscular blocking drugs, which may impair physical rehabilitation and impact long-term outcomes. There are currently a lack of large-scale prospective data to inform optimal invasive ventilation practices and how to best apply a holistic approach to patients receiving veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, while minimising ventilator-induced and patient self-inflicted lung injury. We aimed to review the literature relating to invasive ventilation strategies in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome receiving extracorporeal support and discuss personalised ventilation approaches and the potential role of adjunctive therapies in facilitating lung protection.

Abstract
Successful weaning from ventilators not only improves the quality of life of patients, but also reduces medical expenses. The aim of this study was to explore the association between nutritional provision and successful ventilator weaning. In this retrospective study data from the Respiratory Care Center of Chung Shan Medical University Hospital between October, 2017 and July, 2019 on patient characteristics, amount of nutrition delivered, and clinical outcomes were retrieved. A total of 280 ventilated patients were enrolled and divided into successful extubation and failed weaning groups. There were 178 males (63.6%) and 102 females (36.4%) with a mean age of 67.3 ± 16.9 years. The successful extubation group consisted of patients who tended towards ideal body weight during the weaning process (BMI 23.9 ± 5.0 versus 22.7 ± 4.8 kg/m2, p < 0.001). Patients from both groups initially received the same nutritional intervention, while patients of successful extubation received significantly more calories and protein after weaning (23.8 ± 7.8 kcal versus 27.8 ± 9.1 kcal, p < 0.001 and 0.97 ± 0.36 g versus 1.14 ± 0.42 g, p < 0.001). Successful weaning was associated with higher survival rate (p = 0.016), shortened hospital stay (p = 0.001), and reduced medical costs (p < 0.001). Overall, nutritional support with high calories and protein was associated with the probability of successful ventilator weaning in patients undergoing prolonged mechanical ventilation. Adequate nutrition is a determinant of successful ventilator weaning.

Abstract
Background Large variability in mortality exists in patients of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), especially those with invasive ventilation. The aim of this study was to develop a model to predict risk of in-hospital death in ventilated ARDS patients. Methods Ventilated patients with ARDS from two public databases (MIMIC-III and eICU-CRD) were randomly divided as training cohort and internal validation cohort. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and then Logistic regression was used to construct a predictive model with demographic, clinical, laboratory, comorbidities and ventilation variables ascertained at first 24 h of ICU admission and invasive ventilation. Our model was externally validated using data from another database (MIMIC-IV). Results A total of 1075 adult patients from MIMIC-III and eICU were randomly divided into training cohort (70%, n = 752) and internal validation cohort (30%, n = 323). 521 patients were included from MIMIC-IV. From 176 potential predictors, 9 independent predictive factors were included in the final model. Five variables were ascertained within the first 24 h of ICU admission, including age (OR, 1.02; 95% CI: 1.01–1.03), mean of respiratory rate (OR, 1.04; 95% CI: 1.01–1.08), the maximum of INR (OR, 1.14; 95% CI: 1.03–1.31) and alveolo-arterial oxygen difference (OR, 1.002; 95% CI: 1.001–1.003) and the minimum of RDW (OR, 1.17; 95% CI: 1.09–1.27). And four variables were collected within the first 24 h of invasive ventilation: mean of temperature (OR, 0.70; 95% CI: 0.57–0.86), the maximum of lactate (OR, 1.15; 95% CI: 1.09–1.22), the minimum of blood urea nitrogen (OR, 1.02; 95% CI: 1.01–1.03) and white blood cell counts (OR, 1.03; 95% CI: 1.01–1.06). Our model achieved good discrimination (AUC: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.73–0.80) in training cohort but the performance declined in internal (AUC: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.69–0.80) and external validation cohort (0.70, 95% CI: 0.65–0.74) and showed modest calibration. Conclusions A risk score based on routinely collected variables at the start of admission to ICU and invasive ventilation can predict mortality of ventilated ARDS patients, with a moderate performance.

Abstract
Background The joint committee of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine/Japanese Respiratory Society/Japanese Society of Respiratory Care Medicine on ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline has created and released the ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline 2021. Methods The 2016 edition of the Clinical Practice Guideline covered clinical questions (CQs) that targeted only adults, but the present guideline includes 15 CQs for children in addition to 46 CQs for adults. As with the previous edition, we used a systematic review method with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system as well as a degree of recommendation determination method. We also conducted systematic reviews that used meta-analyses of diagnostic accuracy and network meta-analyses as a new method. Results Recommendations for adult patients with ARDS are described: we suggest against using serum C-reactive protein and procalcitonin levels to identify bacterial pneumonia as the underlying disease (GRADE 2D); we recommend limiting tidal volume to 4–8 mL/kg for mechanical ventilation (GRADE 1D); we recommend against managements targeting an excessively low SpO2 (PaO2) (GRADE 2D); we suggest against using transpulmonary pressure as a routine basis in positive end-expiratory pressure settings (GRADE 2B); we suggest implementing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for those with severe ARDS (GRADE 2B); we suggest against using high-dose steroids (GRADE 2C); and we recommend using low-dose steroids (GRADE 1B). The recommendations for pediatric patients with ARDS are as follows: we suggest against using non-invasive respiratory support (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation/high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy) (GRADE 2D), we suggest placing pediatric patients with moderate ARDS in the prone position (GRADE 2D), we suggest against routinely implementing NO inhalation therapy (GRADE 2C), and we suggest against implementing daily sedation interruption for pediatric patients with respiratory failure (GRADE 2D). Conclusions This article is a translated summary of the full version of the ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline 2021 published in Japanese (URL: https://www.jsicm.org/publication/guideline.html). The original text, which was written for Japanese healthcare professionals, may include different perspectives from healthcare professionals of other countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The joint committee of the Japanese Society of Intensive Care Medicine/Japanese Respiratory Society/Japanese Society of Respiratory Care Medicine on ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline has created and released the ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline 2021. METHODS The 2016 edition of the Clinical Practice Guideline covered clinical questions (CQs) that targeted only adults, but the present guideline includes 15 CQs for children in addition to 46 CQs for adults. As with the previous edition, we used a systematic review method with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system as well as a degree of recommendation determination method. We also conducted systematic reviews that used meta-analyses of diagnostic accuracy and network meta-analyses as a new method. RESULTS Recommendations for adult patients with ARDS are described: we suggest against using serum C-reactive protein and procalcitonin levels to identify bacterial pneumonia as the underlying disease (GRADE 2D); we recommend limiting tidal volume to 4-8 mL/kg for mechanical ventilation (GRADE 1D); we recommend against managements targeting an excessively low SpO2 (PaO2) (GRADE 2D); we suggest against using transpulmonary pressure as a routine basis in positive end-expiratory pressure settings (GRADE 2B); we suggest implementing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for those with severe ARDS (GRADE 2B); we suggest against using high-dose steroids (GRADE 2C); and we recommend using low-dose steroids (GRADE 1B). The recommendations for pediatric patients with ARDS are as follows: we suggest against using non-invasive respiratory support (non-invasive positive pressure ventilation/high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy) (GRADE 2D); we suggest placing pediatric patients with moderate ARDS in the prone position (GRADE 2D); we suggest against routinely implementing NO inhalation therapy (GRADE 2C); and we suggest against implementing daily sedation interruption for pediatric patients with respiratory failure (GRADE 2D). CONCLUSIONS This article is a translated summary of the full version of the ARDS Clinical Practice Guideline 2021 published in Japanese (URL: https://www.jrs.or.jp/publication/jrs_guidelines/). The original text, which was written for Japanese healthcare professionals, may include different perspectives from healthcare professionals of other countries.

Long term feasibility of ultraprotective lung ventilation with low-flow extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal in ARDS patients. J Crit Care 2022; 71:154092. [PMID: 35714453 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2022.154092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 05/02/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the feasibility of long-term application of ultraprotective ventilation with low flow ECCO2R support in moderate-severe ARDS patients and the reduction of mechanical power (MP) compared to lung protective ventilation. MATERIAL AND METHODS ARDS patients with PaO2/FiO2 < 200, PEEP of 10 cmH2O, tidal volume 6 ml/Kg of predicted body weight (PBW), plateau pressure > 24 cmH2O, MP > 17 J/min were prospectively enrolled. After 2 h tidal volume was reduced to 4-5 ml/kg, respiratory rate (RR) and PEEP were changed to maintain similar minute ventilation and mean airway pressure (MAP) to those obtained at baseline. After 2 h, ECCO2R support was started, RR was decreased and PEEP was increased to maintain similar PaCO2 and MAP, respectively. RESULTS The only reduction of tidal volume with the increase in RR did not decrease MP. The application of low flow ECCO2R support allowed a reduction of RR from 25 [24-30] to 11 [9-14] bpm and MP from 18 [13-23] to 8 [7-11] J/min. During the following 5 days no changes in mechanics variables and gas exchange occurred. CONCLUSIONS The application of low flow ECCO2R support with ultraprotective ventilation was feasible minimizing the MP without deterioration in oxygenation in ARDS patients.

Predictive value of computed tomography for short-term mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: a systematic review. Sci Rep 2022; 12:9579.

Abstract
The best available evidence and the predictive value of computed tomography (CT) findings for prognosis in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are unknown. We systematically searched three electronic databases (MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and ClinicalTrials.gov). A total of 410 patients from six observational studies were included in this systematic review. Of these, 143 patients (34.9%) died due to ARDS in short-term. As for CT grade, the CTs used ranged from 4- to 320-row. The index test included diffuse attenuations in one study, affected lung in one study, well-aerated lung region/predicted total lung capacity in one study, CT score in one study and high-resolution CT score in two studies. Considering the CT findings, pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, and diagnostic odds ratio were 62% (95% confidence interval [CI] 30–88%), 76% (95% CI 57–89%), 2.58 (95% CI 2.05–2.73), 0.50 (95% CI 0.21–0.79), and 5.16 (95% CI 2.59–3.46), respectively. This systematic review revealed that there were major differences in the definitions of CT findings, and that the integration of CT findings might not be adequate for predicting short-term mortality in ARDS. Standardisation of CT findings and accumulation of further studies by CT with unified standards are warranted.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of respiratory failure burden by high hospital mortality. No specific pharmacologic treatment is currently available and its ventilatory management is a key strategy to allow reparative and regenerative lung tissue processes. Unfortunately, a poor management of mechanical ventilation can induce ventilation induced lung injury (VILI) caused by physical and biological forces which are at play. Different parameters have been described over the years to assess lung injury severity and facilitate optimization of mechanical ventilation. Indices of lung injury severity include variables related to gas exchange abnormalities, ventilatory setting and respiratory mechanics, ventilation intensity, and the presence of lung hyperinflation versus derecruitment. Recently, specific indexes have been proposed to quantify the stress and the strain released over time using more comprehensive algorithms of calculation such as the mechanical power, and the interaction between driving pressure (DP) and respiratory rate (RR) in the novel DP multiplied by four plus RR [(4 × DP) + RR] index. These new parameters introduce the concept of ventilation intensity as contributing factor of VILI. Ventilation intensity should be taken into account to optimize protective mechanical ventilation strategies, with the aim to reduce intensity to the lowest level required to maintain gas exchange to reduce the potential for VILI. This is further gaining relevance in the current era of phenotyping and enrichment strategies in ARDS.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in patients with hematologic malignancies: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Ann Hematol 2022; 101:1395-1406.

Abstract
Hematological malignancies (HM) have been, until recently, viewed as contraindications to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) due to bleeding and infectious complications. However, conflicting literature regarding whether ECMO should be used for patients with HM still exists. We conducted a random effects meta-analysis to investigate the outcomes of patients with HM on ECMO. We searched Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane through 10 October 2021. Risk of bias and certainty of evidence were assessed using the JBI checklists and GRADE approach respectively. Thirteen observational studies (422 patients with HM, 9778 controls without HM) were included. The pooled in-hospital mortality for patients with HM and those with hematopoietic stem cell transplants for HM indications needing ECMO were 79.1% (95%CI: 70.2-86.9%) and 87.7% (95%CI: 80.4-93.8%), respectively. Subgroup analyses found that mortality was higher in adults than children (85.1% vs 67.9%, pinteraction = 0.003), and in Asia compared to North America and Europe (93.8% vs 69.6%, pinteraction < 0.001). Pooled ECMO duration was 10.0 days (95%CI: 7.5-12.5); pooled ICU and hospital lengths of stay were 19.8 days (95%CI: 12.4-27.3) and 43.9 days (95%CI: 29.4-58.4) respectively. Age (regression coefficient [B]: 0.008, 95%CI: 0.003-0.014), proportion of males (B: 1.799, 95%CI: 0.079-3.519), and ECMO duration (B: - 0.022, 95%CI: - 0.043 to - 0.001) were significantly associated with higher mortality. In-hospital mortality of patients with HM who needed ECMO was 79.1%, with better outcomes in children, and in North America and Europe. ECMO should not be regarded as routine support therapy in these patients but can be carefully considered on a case-by-case basis.
