Descriptors of Failed Extubation in Norwood Patients Using Physiologic Data Streaming. Pediatr Cardiol 2023; 44:396-403. [PMID: 36562780 DOI: 10.1007/s00246-022-03084-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the utility of high-frequency physiologic data during the extubation process and other clinical variables for describing the physiologic profile of extubation failure in neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) post-Norwood procedure. This is a single-center, retrospective analysis. Extubation events were collected from January 2016 until July 2021. Extubation failure was defined as the need for re-intubation within 48 h of extubation. The data included streaming heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation, and cerebral/renal near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The most recent blood laboratory results before extubation were also included. These markers, demographics, clinical characteristics, and ventilatory settings were compared between successful and failed extubations. The analysis included 311 extubations. The extubation failure rate was 10%. According to univariable analyses, failed extubations were preceded by higher respiratory rates (p = 0.029), lower end-tidal CO2 (p = 0.009), lower pH (p = 0.043), lower serum bicarbonate (p = 0.030), and lower partial pressure of O2 (p = 0.022). In the first 10 min after extubation, the failed events were characterized by lower arterial (p = 0.028) and cerebral NIRS (p = 0.018) saturations. Failed events were associated with persistently lower values for cerebral NIRS 2 h post-extubation (p = 0.027). In multivariable analysis, vocal cord anomaly, cerebral NIRS at 10 min post-extubation, renal NIRS at pre-extubation and post-extubation, and end-tidal CO2 at pre-extubation remained as significant co-variables. Oximetric indices before, in the 10 min immediately after, and 2 h after extubation and vocal cords paralysis are associated with failed extubation events in patients with parallel circulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extubation failure is associated with morbidity and mortality in children following cardiac surgery. Current extubation readiness tests (ERT) do not consider the nonrespiratory support provided by mechanical ventilation (MV) for children with congenital heart disease. We aimed to identify factors associated with extubation failure in children following cardiac surgery and assess the performance of two risk analytics algorithms for patients undergoing an ERT. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING CICU at a tertiary-care children's hospital. PATIENTS Children receiving MV greater than 48 hours following cardiac surgery between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2019. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Six hundred fifty encounters were analyzed with 49 occurrences (8%) of reintubation. Extubation failure occurred most frequently within 6 hours of extubation. On multivariable analysis, younger age (per each 3-mo decrease: odds ratio [OR], 1.06; 95% CI, 1.001-1.12), male sex (OR, 2.02; 95% CI, 1.03-3.97), Society of Thoracic Surgery-European Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery category 5 procedure (p equals to 0.005), and preoperative respiratory support (OR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.09-3.95) were independently associated with unplanned reintubation. Our institutional ERT had low sensitivity to identify patients at risk for reintubation (23.8%; 95% CI, 9.7-47.6%). The addition of the inadequate delivery of oxygen (IDO2) index to the ERT increased the sensitivity by 19.0% (95% CI, -2.5 to 40.7%; p = 0.05), but the sensitivity remained low and the accuracy of the test dropped by 8.9% (95% CI, 4.7-13.1%; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative respiratory support, younger age, and more complex operations are associated with postoperative extubation failure. IDO2 and IVCO2 provide unique cardiorespiratory monitoring parameters during ERTs but require further investigation before being used in clinical evaluation for extubation failure.

Wu HL, Lei YQ, Lin WH, Huang ST, Chen Q, Zheng YR. Comparison of Two Noninvasive Ventilation Strategies (NHFOV Versus NIPPV) as Initial Postextubation Respiratory Support in High-Risk Infants After Congenital Heart Surgery. J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2021; 36:1962-1966. [PMID: 34593311 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2021.09.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the effects of nasal high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (NHFOV) and noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) as the initial postextubation therapies on preventing extubation failure (EF) in high-risk infants younger than three months after congenital heart surgery (CHS). DESIGN This was a single-center, randomized, unblinded clinical trial. SETTING The study was performed in a teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS Between January 2020 and January 2021, a total of 150 infants underwent CHS in the authors' hospital. INTERVENTIONS Infants younger than three months with a high risk for extubation failure who were ready for extubation were randomized to either an NHFOV therapy group or an NIPPV therapy group, and received the corresponding noninvasive mechanical ventilation to prevent EF. MEASUREMENTS Primary outcomes were reintubation, long-term noninvasive ventilation (NIV) support (more than 72 hours), and the time in NIV therapy. The secondary outcomes were adverse events, including mild-moderate hypercapnia, severe hypercapnia, severe hypoxemia, treatment intolerance, signs of discomfort, unbearable dyspnea, inability to clear secretions, emesis, and aspiration. MAIN RESULTS Of 92 infants, 45 received NHFOV therapy, and 47 received NIPPV therapy after extubation. There were no significant differences between the NHFOV and the NIPPV therapy groups in the incidences of reintubation, long-term NIV support, and total time under NIV therapy. No significant difference was found of the severe hypercapnia between the two groups, but NHFOV treatment significantly decreased the rate of mild-moderate hypercapnia (p < 0.05). Other outcomes were similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Among infants younger than three months after CHS who had undergone extubation, NIPPV therapy and NHFOV therapy were the equivalent NIV strategies for preventing extubation failure, and NHFOV therapy was more effective in avoiding mild-moderate hypercapnia.
