Abstract
Objectives
New ventilation modes have been proposed to support the perioperative treatment of patients with obesity, but there is a lack of consensus regarding the optimal strategy. Therefore, a network meta-analysis update of 13 ventilation strategies was conducted to determine the optimal mode of mechanical ventilation as a protective ventilation strategy decreases pulmonary atelectasis caused by inflammation.
Methods
The following databases were searched: MEDLINE; Cochrane Library; Embase; CINAHL; Google Scholar; and Web of Science for randomized controlled trials of mechanical ventilation in patients with obesity published up to May 1, 2022.
Results
Volume-controlled ventilation with individualized positive end-expiratory pressure and a recruitment maneuver (VCV+PEEPind+RM) was found to be the most effective strategy for improving ratio of the arterial O2 partial pressure to the inspiratory O2 concentration (PaO2/FiO2), and superior to pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV), volume-controlled ventilation (VCV), volume-controlled ventilation with recruitment maneuver (VCV+RM), volume-controlled ventilation with low positive end-expiratory pressure (VCV+lowPEEP), volume-controlled ventilation with lower positive expiratory end pressure (PEEP) and recruitment maneuver (VCV+lowPEEP+RM), and the mean difference [MD], the 95% confidence intervals [CIs] and [quality of evidence] were: 162.19 [32.94, 291.45] [very low]; 180.74 [59.22, 302.27] [low]; 171.07 [40.60, 301.54] [very low]; 135.14 [36.10, 234.18] [low]; and 139.21 [27.08, 251.34] [very low]. Surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) value showed VCV+PEEPind+RM was the best strategy for improving PaO2/FiO2 (SUCRA: 0.963). VCV with high positive PEEP and recruitment maneuver (VCV+highPEEP+RM) was more effective in decreasing postoperative pulmonary atelectasis than the VCV+lowPEEP+RM strategy. It was found that volume-controlled ventilation with high positive expiratory end pressure (VCV+highPEEP), risk ratio [RR] [95% CIs] and [quality of evidence], 0.56 [0.38, 0.81] [moderate], 0.56 [0.34, 0.92] [moderate]. SUCRA value ranked VCV+highPEEP+RM the best strategy for improving postoperative pulmonary atelectasis intervention (SUCRA: 0.933). It should be noted that the quality of evidence was in all cases very low or only moderate.
Conclusions
This research suggests that VCV+PEEPind+RM is the optimal ventilation strategy for patients with obesity and is more effective in increasing PaO2/FiO2, improving lung compliance, and among the five ventilation strategies for postoperative atelectasis, VCV+highPEEP+RM had the greatest potential to reduce atelectasis caused by inflammation.
