Speed of lung inflation at birth influences the initiation of lung injury in preterm lambs. JCI Insight 2024; 9:e181228. [PMID: 39106107 DOI: 10.1172/jci.insight.181228] [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: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Gas flow is fundamental for driving tidal ventilation and, thus, the speed of lung motion, but current bias flow settings to support the preterm lung after birth do not have an evidence base. We aimed to determine the role of gas bias flow rates to generate positive pressure ventilation in initiating early lung injury pathways in the preterm lamb. Using slower speeds to inflate the lung during tidal ventilation (gas flow rates 4-6 L/min) did not affect lung mechanics, mechanical power, or gas exchange compared with those currently used in clinical practice (8-10 L/min). Speed of pressure and volume change during inflation were faster with higher flow rates. Lower flow rates resulted in less bronchoalveolar fluid protein, better lung morphology, and fewer detached epithelial cells. Overall, relative to unventilated fetal controls, there was greater protein change using 8-10 L/min, which was associated with enrichment of acute inflammatory and innate responses. Slowing the speed of lung motion by supporting the preterm lung from birth with lower flow rates than in current clinical use resulted in less lung injury without compromising tidal ventilation or gas exchange.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that caffeine would be associated with a transient reduction in the right-to-left shunt and VA/Q. We aimed to explore the temporal effects of caffeine on right-to-left shunt, ventilation perfusion ratio (VA/Q) and shift of the oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve (ODC) in premature ventilated infants. METHODS Retrospective cohort study at a tertiary neonatal unit of infants born at less than 31 weeks of gestation that were mechanically ventilated on day three of life. The non-invasive method of the ODC was used to determine the right-to-left shunt, VA/Q and shift before and at 1, 4 and 20 h after a maintenance dose of caffeine citrate. RESULTS A total of 21 infants were included with a median (range) gestational age of 27 (23.7-30.7) weeks. The median shunt percentage was significantly reduced, compared to baseline at 1 h (8 (range: 7-9) % vs. 4 (range: 0-6) %, p=0.042) and 4 h post caffeine administration (8 (range: 7-9) % vs. 0 (range: 0-3) %, p=0.042), but the VA/Q and the right shift of the ODC did not differ significantly between these time points. At 20 h, there were no significant differences between these indices compared to baseline values. CONCLUSIONS Caffeine led to a transient decrease in intrapulmonary shunt from one to 4 h after administration and this may be due to its diuretic action.

Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 2023; 325:L594-L603.

Abstract
Tidal ventilation is essential in supporting the transition to air-breathing at birth, but excessive tidal volume (VT) is an important factor in preterm lung injury. Few studies have assessed the impact of specific VT levels on injury development. Here, we used a lamb model of preterm birth to investigate the role of different levels of VT during positive pressure ventilation (PPV) in promoting aeration and initiating early lung injury pathways. VT was delivered as 1) 7 mL/kg throughout (VTstatic), 2) begun at 3 mL/kg and increased to a final VT of 7 mL/kg over 3 min (VTinc), or 3) commenced at 7 mL/kg, decreased to 3 mL/kg, and then returned to 7 mL/kg (VTalt). VT, inflating pressure, lung compliance, and aeration were similar in all groups from 4 min, as was postmortem histology and lung lavage protein concentration. However, transient decrease in VT in the VTalt group caused increased ventilation heterogeneity. Following TMT-based quantitative mass spectrometry proteomics, 1,610 proteins were identified in the lung. Threefold more proteins were significantly altered with VTalt compared with VTstatic or VTinc strategies. Gene set enrichment analysis identified VTalt specific enrichment of immune and angiogenesis pathways and VTstatic enrichment of metabolic processes. Our finding of comparable lung physiology and volutrauma across VT groups challenges the paradigm that there is a need to rapidly aerate the preterm lung at birth. Increased lung injury and ventilation heterogeneity were identified when initial VT was suddenly decreased during respiratory support at birth, further supporting the benefit of a gentle VT approach.NEW & NOTEWORTHY There is little evidence to guide the best tidal volume (VT) strategy at birth. In this study, comparable aeration, lung mechanics, and lung morphology were observed using static, incremental, and alternating VT strategies. However, transient reduction in VT was associated with ventilation heterogeneity and inflammation. Our results suggest that rapidly aerating the preterm lung may not be as clinically critical as previously thought, providing clinicians with reassurance that gently supporting the preterm lung maybe permissible at birth.

Abstract
Rationale: Inflation is essential for aeration at birth, but current inflating pressure settings are without an evidence base. Objectives: To determine the role of inflating pressure (ΔP), and its relationship with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), in initiating early lung injury pathways in the preterm lamb lung. Methods: Preterm (124 to 127 d) steroid-exposed lambs (n = 45) were randomly allocated (8-10 per group) to 15 minutes of respiratory support with placental circulation and 20 or 30 cm H2O ΔP, with an initial high PEEP (maximum, 20 cm H2O) recruitment maneuver known to facilitate aeration (dynamic PEEP), and compared with dynamic PEEP with no ΔP or 30 cm H2O ΔP and low (4 cm H2O) PEEP. Lung mechanics and aeration were measured throughout. After an additional 30 minutes of apneic placental support, lung tissue and bronchoalveolar fluid were analyzed for regional lung injury, including proteomics. Measurements and Main Results: The 30 cm H2O ΔP and dynamic PEEP strategies resulted in quicker aeration and better compliance but higher tidal volumes (often >8 ml/kg, all P < 0.0001; mixed effects) and injury. ΔP 20 cm H2O with dynamic PEEP resulted in the same lung mechanics and aeration, but less energy transmission (tidal mechanical power), as ΔP 30 cm H2O with low PEEP. Dynamic PEEP without any tidal inflations resulted in the least lung injury. Use of any tidal inflating pressures altered metabolic, coagulation and complement protein pathways within the lung. Conclusions: Inflating pressure is essential for the preterm lung at birth, but it is also the primary mediator of lung injury. Greater focus is needed on strategies that identify the safest application of pressure in the delivery room.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of different respiratory strategies at birth on the preterm lung is well understood; however, concerns have been raised that lung recruitment may impede cerebral haemodynamics. This study aims to examine the effect of three different ventilation strategies on carotid blood flow, carotid artery oxygen content and carotid oxygen delivery. METHODS 124-127-day gestation apnoeic intubated preterm lambs studied as part of a larger programme primarily assessing lung injury were randomised to positive pressure ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 8 cmH2O (No-RM; n = 12), sustained inflation (SI; n = 15) or dynamic PEEP strategy (DynPEEP; maximum PEEP 14 or 20 cmH2O, n = 41) at birth, followed by 90 min of standardised ventilation. Haemodynamic data were continuously recorded, with intermittent arterial blood gas analysis. RESULTS Overall carotid blood flow measures were comparable between strategies. Except for mean carotid blood flow that was significantly lower for the SI group compared to the No-RM and DynPEEP groups over the first 3 min (p < 0.0001, mixed effects model). Carotid oxygen content and oxygen delivery were similar between strategies. Maximum PEEP level did not alter cerebral haemodynamic measures. CONCLUSIONS Although there were some short-term variations in cerebral haemodynamics between different PEEP strategies and SI, these were not sustained. IMPACT Different pressure strategies to facilitate lung aeration at birth in preterm infants have been proposed. There is minimal information on the effect of lung recruitment on cerebral haemodynamics. This is the first study that compares the effect of sustained lung inflation and dynamic and static positive end-expiratory pressure on cerebral haemodynamics. We found that the different ventilation strategies did not alter carotid blood flow, carotid oxygen content or carotid oxygen delivery. This preclinical study provides some reassurance that respiratory strategies designed to focus on lung aeration at birth may not impact cerebral haemodynamics in preterm neonates.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A lack of clear trial evidence often hampers clinical decision-making during support of the preterm lung at birth. Protein biomarkers have been used to define acute lung injury phenotypes and improve patient selection for specific interventions in adult respiratory distress syndrome. The objective of the study was to use proteomics to provide a deeper biological understanding of acute lung injury phenotypes resulting from different aeration strategies at birth in the preterm lung.
Methods
Changes in protein abundance against an unventilated group (n = 7) were identified via mass spectrometry in a biobank of gravity dependent and non-dependent lung tissue from preterm lambs managed with either a Sustained Inflation (SI, n = 20), Dynamic PEEP (DynPEEP, n = 19) or static PEEP (StatPEEP, n = 11). Ventilation strategy-specific pathways and functions were identified (PANTHER and WebGestalt Tool) and phenotypes defined using integrated analysis of proteome, physiological and clinical datasets (MixOmics package).
Results
2372 proteins were identified. More altered proteins were identified in the non-dependent lung, and in SI group than StatPEEP and DynPEEP. Different inflammation, immune system, apoptosis and cytokine pathway enrichment were identified for each strategy and lung region. Specific integration maps of clinical and physiological outcomes to specific proteins could be generated for each strategy.
Conclusions
Proteomics mapped the molecular events initiating acute lung injury and identified detailed strategy-specific phenotypes. This study demonstrates the potential to characterise preterm lung injury by the direct aetiology and response to lung injury; the first step towards true precision medicine in neonatology.

Abstract
Rationale: The transition to air breathing at birth is a seminal respiratory event common to all humans, but the intrathoracic processes remain poorly understood. Objectives: The objectives of this prospective, observational study were to describe the spatiotemporal gas flow, aeration, and ventilation patterns within the lung in term neonates undergoing successful respiratory transition. Methods: Electrical impedance tomography was used to image intrathoracic volume patterns for every breath until 6 minutes from birth in neonates born by elective cesearean section and not needing resuscitation. Breaths were classified by video data, and measures of lung aeration, tidal flow conditions, and intrathoracic volume distribution calculated for each inflation. Measurements and Main Results: A total of 1,401 breaths from 17 neonates met all eligibility and data analysis criteria. Stable FRC was obtained by median (interquartile range) 43 (21-77) breaths. Breathing patterns changed from predominantly crying (80.9% first min) to tidal breathing (65.3% sixth min). From birth, tidal ventilation was not uniform within the lung, favoring the right and nondependent regions; P < 0.001 versus left and dependent regions (mixed-effects model). Initial crying created a unique volumetric pattern with delayed midexpiratory gas flow associated with intrathoracic volume redistribution (pendelluft flow) within the lung. This preserved FRC, especially within the dorsal and right regions. Conclusions: The commencement of air breathing at birth generates unique flow and volume states associated with marked spatiotemporal ventilation inhomogeneity not seen elsewhere in respiratory physiology. At birth, neonates innately brake expiratory flow to defend FRC gains and redistribute gas to less aerated regions.

Abstract
The development of regional lung injury in the preterm lung is not well understood. This study aimed to characterize time-dependent and regionally specific injury patterns associated with early ventilation of the preterm lung using a mass spectrometry-based proteomic approach. Preterm lambs delivered at 124-127 days gestation received 15 or 90 minutes of mechanical ventilation (positive end-expiratory pressure = 8 cm H2O, Vt = 6-8 ml/kg) and were compared with unventilated control lambs. At study completion, lung tissue was taken from standardized nondependent and dependent regions, and assessed for lung injury via histology, quantitative PCR, and proteomic analysis using Orbitrap-mass spectrometry. Ingenuity pathway analysis software was used to identify temporal and region-specific enrichments in pathways and functions. Apoptotic cell numbers were ninefold higher in nondependent lung at 15 and 90 minutes compared with controls, whereas proliferative cells were increased fourfold in the dependent lung at 90 minutes. The relative gene expression of lung injury markers was increased at 90 minutes in nondependent lung and unchanged in gravity-dependent lung. Within the proteome, the number of differentially expressed proteins was fourfold higher in the nondependent lung than the dependent lung. The number of differential proteins increased over time in both lung regions. A total of 95% of enriched canonical pathways and 94% of enriched cellular and molecular functions were identified only in nondependent lung tissue from the 90-minute ventilation group. In conclusion, complex injury pathways are initiated within the preterm lung after 15 minutes of ventilation and amplified by continuing ventilation. Injury development is region specific, with greater alterations within the proteome of nondependent lung.

Abstract
Background Lung recruitment at birth has been advocated as an effective method of improving the respiratory transition at birth. Sustained inflations (SI) and dynamic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) were assessed in clinical and animal studies to define the optimal level. Our working hypothesis was that very low gestational age infants (VLGAI) < 32 weeks’ gestation require an individualized lung recruitment based on combining both manoeuvers. Methods Between 2014 and 2016, 91 and 72 inborn VLGAI, requiring a respiratory support beyond a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) = 5 cmH2O, were enrolled before and after introducing these manoeuvers based on progressive increase in SI up to 15 s, with simultaneous gradual increase in PEEP up to 15 cmH2O, according to the cardiorespiratory response. Retrospective comparisons of the incidence of mechanical ventilation (MV) < 72 h of life, short-term and before discharge morbidity were then performed. Results Among extremely low gestational age infants (ELGAI) < 29 weeks’ gestation, the following outcomes decreased significantly: intubation (90 to 55%) and surfactant administration (54 to 12%) in the delivery room, MV (92 to 71%) and its mean duration < 72 h of life (45 h to 13 h), administration of a 2nd dose of surfactant (35 to 12%) and postnatal corticosteroids (52 to 19%), and the rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (23 to 5%). Among VLGAI, all of these results were also significant. Neonatal mortality and morbidity were not different. Conclusions In our setting, combining two individualized lung recruitment maneuvers at birth was feasible and may be beneficial on short-term and before discharge pulmonary outcomes. A randomized controlled trial is needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
Rationale: The preterm lung is susceptible to injury during transition to air breathing at birth. It remains unclear whether rapid or gradual lung aeration at birth causes less lung injury.Objectives: To examine the effect of gradual and rapid aeration at birth on: 1) the spatiotemporal volume conditions of the lung; and 2) resultant regional lung injury.Methods: Preterm lambs (125 ± 1 d gestation) were randomized at birth to receive: 1) tidal ventilation without an intentional recruitment (no-recruitment maneuver [No-RM]; n = 19); 2) sustained inflation (SI) until full aeration (n = 26); or 3) tidal ventilation with an initial escalating/de-escalating (dynamic) positive end-expiratory pressure (DynPEEP; n = 26). Ventilation thereafter continued for 90 minutes at standardized settings, including PEEP of 8 cm H2O. Lung mechanics and regional aeration and ventilation (electrical impedance tomography) were measured throughout and correlated with histological and gene markers of early lung injury.Measurements and Main Results: DynPEEP significantly improved dynamic compliance (P < 0.0001). An SI, but not DynPEEP or No-RM, resulted in preferential nondependent lung aeration that became less uniform with time (P = 0.0006). The nondependent lung was preferential ventilated by 5 minutes in all groups, with ventilation only becoming uniform with time in the No-RM and DynPEEP groups. All strategies generated similar nondependent lung injury patterns. Only an SI caused greater upregulation of dependent lung gene markers compared with unventilated fetal controls (P < 0.05).Conclusions: Rapidly aerating the preterm lung at birth creates heterogeneous volume states, producing distinct regional injury patterns that affect subsequent tidal ventilation. Gradual aeration with tidal ventilation and PEEP produced the least lung injury.

Abstract
Despite recent insights into the dynamic processes during lung aeration at birth, several aspects remain poorly understood. We aimed to characterize changes in lung mechanics during the first inflation at birth and their relationship to changes in lung volume. Intubated preterm lambs (gestational age, 124-127 days; n = 17) were studied at birth. Lung volume changes were measured by electrical impedance tomography (VLEIT). Respiratory system resistance (R5) and oscillatory compliance (Cx5) were monitored with the forced oscillation technique at 5 Hz. Lambs received 3-7 s of 8 cmH2O of continuous distending pressure (CDP) before delivery of a sustained inflation (SI) of 40 cmH2O. The SI was then applied until either Cx5 or the VLEIT or the airway opening volume was stable. CDP was resumed for 3-7 s before commencement of mechanical ventilation. The exponential increases with time of Cx5 and VLEIT from commencement of the SI were characterized by estimating their time constants (τCx5 and τVLEIT, respectively). During SI, a fast decrease in R5 and an exponential increase in Cx5 and VLEIT were observed. Cx5 and VLEIT provided comparable information on the dynamics of lung aeration in all lambs, with τCx5 and τVLEIT being highly linearly correlated (r2 = 0.87, P < 0.001). Cx5 and VLEIT decreased immediately after SI. Despite the standardization of the animal model, changes in Cx5 and R5 both during and after SI were highly variable. Lung aeration at birth is characterized by a fast reduction in resistance and a slower increase in oscillatory compliance, the latter being a direct reflection of the amount of lung aeration.

Abstract
Respiratory support is critically important for survival of newborns who fail to breathe spontaneously at birth. Although there is no internationally accepted definition of a sustained inflation (SI), it has commonly been defined as a positive pressure inflation designed to establish functional residual capacity and applied over a longer time period than normally used in standard respiratory support (SRS). Outcomes vary distinctly between studies and to date there has been no comprehensive investigation of differences in SI approach and study outcome in both pre-clinical and clinical studies. A systematic literature search was performed and, after screening, identified 17 animal studies and 17 clinical studies evaluating use of a SI in newborns compared to SRS during neonatal resuscitation. Study demographics including gestational age, SI parameters (length, repetitions, pressure, method of delivery) and study outcomes were compared. Animal studies provide mechanistic understanding of a SI on the physiology underpinning the cardiorespiratory transition at birth. In clinical studies, there is considerable difference in study quality, delivery of SIs (number, pressure, length) and timing of primary outcome evaluation which limits direct comparison between studies. The largest difference is method of delivery, where the role of a SI has been observed in intubated animals, as the inflation pressure is directly applied to the lung, bypassing the obstructed upper airway in an apnoeic state. This highlights a potential limitation in clinical use of a SI applied non-invasively. Further research is required to identify if a SI may have greater benefits in subpopulations of newborns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of pressure strategies to promote lung aeration at birth on the subsequent physiological response to exogenous surfactant therapy has not been investigated. OBJECTIVES To compare the effect of sustained inflation (SI) and a dynamic positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) manoeuvre at birth on the subsequent physiological response to exogenous surfactant therapy in preterm lambs. METHODS Steroid-exposed preterm lambs (124-127 days' gestation; n=71) were randomly assigned from birth to either (1) positive-pressure ventilation (PPV) with no recruitment manoeuvre; (2) SI until stable aeration; or (3) 3 min dynamic stepwise PEEP strategy (maximum 14-20 cmH2O; dynamic PEEP (DynPEEP)), followed by PPV for 60 min using a standardised protocol. Surfactant (200 mg/kg poractant alfa) was administered at 10 min. Dynamic compliance, gas exchange and regional ventilation and aeration characteristics (electrical impedance tomography) were measured throughout and compared between groups, and with a historical group (n=38) managed using the same strategies without surfactant. RESULTS Compliance increased after surfactant only in the DynPEEP group (p<0.0001, repeated measures analysis of variance), being 0.17 (0.10, 0.23) mL/kg/cmH2O higher at 60 min than the SI group. An SI resulted in the least uniform aeration, and unlike the no-recruitment and DynPEEP groups, the distribution of aeration and tidal ventilation did not improve with surfactant. All groups had similar improvements in oxygenation post-surfactant compared with the corresponding groups not treated with surfactant. CONCLUSIONS A DynPEEP strategy at birth may improve the response to early surfactant therapy, whereas rapid lung inflation with SI creates non-uniform aeration that appears to inhibit surfactant efficacy.

Abstract
Background: Preterm birth is associated with abnormal lung architecture, and a reduction in pulmonary function related to the degree of prematurity. A thorough understanding of the impact of gestational age on lung microarchitecture requires reproducible quantitative analysis of lung structure abnormalities. The objectives of this study were (1) to use quantitative histological software (ImageJ) to map morphological patterns of injury resulting from delivery of an identical ventilation strategy to the lung at varying gestational ages and (2) to identify associations between gestational age-specific morphological alterations and key functional outcomes. Method: Lung morphology was compared after 60 min of a standardized ventilation protocol (40 cm H2O sustained inflation and then volume-targeted positive pressure ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure 8 cm H2O) in lambs at different gestations (119, 124, 128, 133, 140d) representing the spectrum of premature developmental lung states and the term lung. Age-matched controls were compared at 124 and 128d gestation. Automated and manual functions of Image J were used to measure key histological features. Correlation analysis compared morphological and functional outcomes in lambs aged ≤128 and >128d. Results: In initial studies, unventilated lung was indistinguishable at 124 and 128d. Ventilated lung from lambs aged 124d gestation exhibited increased numbers of detached epithelial cells and lung tissue compared with 128d lambs. Comparing results from saccular to alveolar development (120-140d), lambs aged ≤124d exhibited increased lung tissue, average alveolar area, and increased numbers of detached epithelial cells. Alveolar septal width was increased in lambs aged ≤128d. These findings were mirrored in the measures of gas exchange, lung mechanics, and molecular markers of lung injury. Correlation analysis confirmed the gestation-specific relationships between the histological assessments and functional measures in ventilated lambs at gestation ≤128 vs. >128d. Conclusion: Image J allowed rapid, quantitative assessment of alveolar morphology, and lung injury in the preterm lamb model. Gestational age-specific patterns of injury in response to delivery of an identical ventilation strategy were identified, with 128d being a transition point for associations between morphological alterations and functional outcomes. These results further support the need to develop individualized respiratory support approaches tailored to both the gestational age of the infant and their underlying injury response.

Abstract
The preterm lung is particularly vulnerable to ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) as a result of mechanical ventilation. However the developmental and pathological cellular mechanisms influencing the changing patterns of VILI have not been comprehensively delineated, preventing the advancement of targeted lung protective therapies. This study aimed to use SWATH-MS to comprehensively map the plasma proteome alterations associated with the initiation of VILI following 60 minutes of standardized mechanical ventilation from birth in three distinctly different developmental lung states; the extremely preterm, preterm and term lung using the ventilated lamb model. Across these gestations, 34 proteins were differentially altered in matched plasma samples taken at birth and 60 minutes. Multivariate analysis of the plasma proteomes confirmed a gestation-specific response to mechanical ventilation with 79% of differentially-expressed proteins altered in a single gestation group only. Six cellular and molecular functions and two physiological functions were uniquely enriched in either the extremely preterm or preterm group. Correlation analysis supported gestation-specific protein-function associations within each group. In identifying the gestation-specific proteome and functional responses to ventilation we provide the founding evidence required for the potential development of individualized respiratory support approaches tailored to both the developmental and pathological state of the lung.

Abstract
Background: High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is considered a lung protective ventilation mode in preterm infants only if lung volume is optimized. However, whilst a "high lung volume strategy" is advocated for HFOV in preterm infants this strategy is not precisely defined. It is not known to what extent lung recruitment should be pursued to provide lung protection. In this study we aimed to determine the relationship between the magnitude of lung volume optimization and its effect on gas exchange and lung injury in preterm lambs. Methods: 36 surfactant-deficient 124-127 d lambs commenced HFOV immediately following a sustained inflation at birth and were allocated to either (1) no recruitment (low lung volume; LLV), (2) medium- (MLV), or (3) high lung volume (HLV) recruitment strategy. Gas exchange and lung volume changes over time were measured. Lung injury was analyzed by post mortem pressure-volume curves, alveolar protein leakage, gene expression, and histological injury score. Results: More animals in the LLV developed a pneumothorax compared to both recruitment groups. Gas exchange was superior in both recruitment groups compared to LLV. Total lung capacity tended to be lower in the LLV group. Other parameters of lung injury were not different. Conclusions: Lung recruitment during HFOV optimizes gas exchange but has only modest effects on lung injury in a preterm animal model. In the HLV group aiming at a more extensive lung recruitment gas exchange was better without affecting lung injury.
