Solís-García G, Bravo MC, Pellicer A. Cardiorespiratory interactions during the transitional period in extremely preterm infants: a narrative review. Pediatr Res 2024:10.1038/s41390-024-03451-6. [PMID: 39179873 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-024-03451-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
We aimed to review the physiology and evidence behind cardiorespiratory interactions during the transitional circulation of extremely preterm infants with fragile physiology and to propose a framework for future research. Cord clamping strategies have a great impact on initial haemodynamic changes, and appropriate transition can be facilitated by establishing spontaneous ventilation before cord clamping. Mechanical ventilation modifies preterm transitional haemodynamics, with positive pressure ventilation affecting the right and left heart loading conditions. Pulmonary vascular resistances can be minimized by ventilating with optimal lung volumes at functional residual capacity, and other pulmonary vasodilator treatments such as inhaled nitric oxide can be used to improve ventilation/perfusion mismatch. Different cardiovascular drugs can be used to provide support during transition in this population, and it is important to understand both their cardiovascular and respiratory effects, in order to provide adequate support to vulnerable preterm infants and improve outcomes. Current available non-invasive bedside tools, such as near-infrared spectroscopy, targeted neonatal echocardiography, or lung ultrasound offer the opportunity to precisely monitor cardiorespiratory interactions in preterm infants. More research is needed in this field using precision medicine to strengthen the benefits and avoid the harms associated to early neonatal interventions. IMPACT: In extremely preterm infants, haemodynamic and respiratory transitions are deeply interconnected, and their changes have a key impact in the establishment of lung aireation and postnatal circulation. We describe how mechanical ventilation modifies heart loading conditions and pulmonary vascular resistances in preterm patients, and how hemodynamic interventions such as cord clamping strategies or cardiovascular drugs affect the infant respiratory status. Current available non-invasive bedside tools can help monitor cardiorespiratory interactions in preterm infants. We highlight the areas of research in which precision medicine can help strengthen the benefits and avoid the harms associated to early neonatal interventions.

Farag MM, Hassan MAA, Fasseeh NAEM, Ghazal HAER. The effect of NHFOV on hemodynamics in mild and moderately preterm neonates: a randomized clinical trial. Eur J Pediatr 2024; 183:3263-3275. [PMID: 38703279 PMCID: PMC11263252 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-024-05515-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study is to study cardio-respiratory effects of nasal high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (NHFOV) vs. NCPAP as an initial mode of ventilation in moderate-late-preterm infants. A randomized controlled trial was conducted in NICU of Alexandria University Maternity Hospital (AUMH). One-hundred late-moderate-preterm infants were randomly assigned to either NHFOV-group (n = 50) or NCPAP-group (n = 50). For both groups, functional echocardiography was performed in the first 24 h to detect hemodynamic changes and respiratory outcome was monitored throughout the hospital stay. The main outcomes were hemodynamic measurements and myocardial function using functional echocardiography of those infants along with the respiratory outcome and complications. Kaplan-Meier survival plot was used representing time course of NCPAP and NHFOV failure. Left ventricular output values were not significantly different in both groups with median 202 ml/kg /min and IQR (176-275) in NCPAP-group and 226 ml/kg/min with IQR (181-286) in NHFOV group. Nevertheless, ejection fraction and fractional shortening were significantly higher in NHFOV-group with P 0.001. The time to weaning, the time to reach 30%-FIO2, the need for invasive ventilation, oxygen support duration, and maximal-FIO2 were significantly more in NCAPAP group. Conclusion: NHFOV is an effective and promising tool of non-invasive-ventilation which can be used as a primary modality of respiratory support in preterm infants with variable forms of respiratory distress syndrome without causing detrimental effect on hemodynamics or significant respiratory complications. Trial registration: NCT05706428 (registered on January 21, 2023). What is Known: • NHFOV might be beneficial as a secondary mode of ventilation and might have an impact on hemodynamics. What is New: • NHFOV can be used as an initial mode of ventilation with CDP beyond the reported pressure limits of CPAP without causing neither CO2 retention nor adverse hemodynamic consequences.

Impact on cerebral hemodynamics of the use of volume guarantee combined with high frequency oscillatory ventilation in a neonatal animal respiratory distress model. Eur J Pediatr 2024; 183:157-167. [PMID: 37851085 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-023-05245-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an alternative to conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Recently, the use of volume guarantee (VG) combined with HFOV has been suggested as a safe strategy capable of reducing the damage induced by ventilation in immature lungs. However, the possible impact of this new ventilation technique on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown. To evaluate the cerebral hemodynamics effect of HFOV combined with VG in an experimental animal model of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) due to surfactant deficiency compared with HFOV and CMV+VG (control group). Eighteen newborn piglets were randomized, before and after the induction of RDS by bronchoalveolar lavage, into 3 mechanical ventilation groups: CMV, HFOV and HFOV with VG. Changes in cerebral oxygen transport and consumption and cerebral blood flow were analyzed by non-invasive regional cerebral oxygen saturation (CrSO2), jugular venous saturation (SjO2), the calculated cerebral oxygen extraction fraction (COEF), the calculated cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE) and direct measurement of carotid artery flow. To analyze the temporal evolution of these variables, a mixed-effects linear regression model was constructed. After randomization, the following statistically significant results were found in every group: a drop in carotid artery flow: at a rate of -1.7 mL/kg/min (95% CI: -2.5 to -0.81; p < 0.001), CrSO2: at a rate of -6.2% (95% CI: -7.9 to -4.4; p < 0.001) and SjO2: at a rate of -20% (95% CI: -26 to -15; p < 0.001), accompanied by an increase in COEF: at a rate of 20% (95% CI: 15 to 26; p < 0.001) and cFTOE: at a rate of 0.07 (95% CI: 0.05 to 0.08; p < 0.001) in all groups. No statistically significant differences were found between the HFOV groups. CONCLUSION No differences were observed at cerebral hemodynamic between respiratory assistance in HFOV with and without VG, being the latter ventilatory strategy equally safe. WHAT IS KNOWN • Preterm have a situation of fragility of cerebral perfusion wich means that any mechanical ventilation strategy can have a significant influence. High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an alternative to conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Recently, the use of volume guarantee (VG) combined with HFOV has been suggested as a safe strategy capable of reducing the damage induced by ventilation in immature lungs. Several studies have compared CMV and HFOV and their effects at hemodynamic level. It is known that the use of high mean airway pressure in HFOV can cause an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance with a decrease in thoracic venous return. WHAT IS NEW • The possible impact of VAFO + VG on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown. Due the lack of studies and the existing controversy, we have carried out this research project in an experimental animal model with the aim of evaluating the cerebral hemodynamic repercussion of the use of VG in HFOV compared to the classic strategy without VG.

Abstract
Advances in perinatal management have led to improvements in survival rates for premature infants. It is known that the transitional period soon after birth, and the subsequent weeks, remain periods of rapid circulatory changes. Preterm infants, especially those born at the limits of viability, are susceptible to hemodynamic effects of routine respiratory care practices. In particular, the immature myocardium and cardiovascular system is developmentally vulnerable. Standard of care (but essential) respiratory interventions, administered as part of neonatal care, may negatively impact heart function and/or pulmonary or systemic hemodynamics. The available evidence regarding the hemodynamic impact of these respiratory practices is not well elucidated. Enhanced diagnostic precision and therapeutic judiciousness are warranted. In this narrative, we outline (1) the vulnerability of preterm infants to hemodynamic disturbances (2) the hemodynamic effects of common respiratory practices; including positive pressure ventilation and surfactant therapy, and (3) identify tools to assess cardiopulmonary interactions and guide management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess whether respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity can predict preload responsiveness in mechanically ventilated and hemodynamically unstable neonates. DESIGN Prospective observational diagnostic accuracy study. SETTING Third-level neonatal ICU. PATIENTS Hemodynamically unstable neonates under mechanical ventilation. INTERVENTIONS Fluid challenge with 10 mL/kg of normal saline over 20 minutes. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity and superior vena cava flow were measured at baseline (T0), immediately upon completion of the fluid infusion (T1), and at 1 hour after fluid administration (T2). Our main outcome was preload responsiveness which was defined as an increase in superior vena cava flow of at least 10% from T0 to T1. Forty-six infants with a median (interquartile range) gestational age of 30.5 weeks (28-36 wk) were included. Twenty-nine infants (63%) were fluid responders, and 17 (37%) were nonresponders Fluid responders had a higher baseline (T0) respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity than nonresponders (9% [8.2-10.8] vs 5.5% [3.7-6.6]; p < 0.001). Baseline respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity was correlated with the increase in superior vena cava flow from T0 to T1 (rho = 0.841; p < 0.001). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity to predict preload responsiveness was 0.912 (95% CI, 0.82-1). A respiratory variation in aortic blood flow peak velocity cut-off point of 7.8% provided a 90% sensitivity (95% CI, 71-97), 88% specificity (95% CI, 62-98), 7.6 positive likelihood ratio (95% CI, 2-28), and 0.11 negative likelihood ratio (95% CI, 0.03-0.34) to predict preload responsiveness. CONCLUSIONS Respiratory variation in aortic blood flow velocity may be useful to predict the immediate response to a fluid challenge in hemodynamically unstable neonates under mechanical ventilation. If our results are confirmed, this measurement could be used to guide safe and individualized fluid resuscitation in critically ill neonates.

Abstract
AIM The effect of ventilator modes on regional tissue oxygenation in premature neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) has yet to be delineated. Previous studies have looked at global oxygen delivery and have not assessed the effects on regional tissue oxygenation. Our aim in this study was to assess such tissue oxygenation in premature babies with RDS in relation to differing modes of ventilation using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). METHODS In 24 stable preterm infants with RDS, undergoing elective wean in ventilator mode, cerebral and muscle tissue oxygenation were assessed using NIRS. Infants were weaned from high-frequency oscillator or jet ventilator to conventional invasive ventilation (CV) or extubated from CV to non-invasive mechanical ventilation. Data at 30 minutes prior and at one hour after change in ventilator mode were compared (paired t test). RESULTS In babies changed from high-frequency oscillation to CV, jet to CV and CV to non-invasive ventilation, the differences in cerebral NIRS (mean ± SD) were 1.7 ± 9.9%, 2.3 ± 5.7% and 2.1 ± 8.4%, respectively. The concomitant changes in muscle NIRS were -2.9 ± 8.5%, 8.1 ± 9.7% and 3.6 ± 22.4%, respectively. No changes were statistically significant. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that there is no alteration in regional tissue oxygenation related to ventilator mode in stable preterm infants with improving RDS.

Abstract
Respiratory failure is a common condition faced by critically ill neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is often used for neonates with refractory respiratory failure related to RDS. Volume guarantee (VG) mode has been added to some HFOV ventilators for providing consistent tidal volume. We sought to examine the impact of adding the VG mode during HFOV on systemic and cerebral hemodynamics, which has not been studied to date. A neonatal piglet model of moderate to severe RDS was induced by saline lavage. Piglets (full term, age 1–3 days, weight 1.5–2.4 kg) were randomized to have RDS induced and receive either HFOV or HFOV+VG (n = 8/group) or sham-operation (n = 6) without RDS. Cardiac function measured by a Millar® catheter placed in the left ventricle as well as systemic and carotid hemodynamic and oxygen tissue saturation parameters were collected over 240 min of ventilation. Mean airway pressure, alveolar-arterial oxygen difference and left ventricular cardiac index of piglets on HFOV vs. HFOV+VG were not significantly different during the experimental period. Right common carotid artery flow index by in-situ ultrasonic flow measurement and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (near-infrared spectroscopy) significantly decreased in HFOV+VG at 240 min compared to HFOV (14 vs. 31 ml/kg/min, and 30% vs. 43%, respectively; p<0.05). There were no significant differences in lung, brain and heart tissue markers of oxidative stress, ischemia and inflammation. HFOV+VG compared to HFOV was associated with similar left ventricular function, however HFOV+VG had a negative effect on cerebral blood flow and oxygenation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) can have negative hemodynamic effects in neonates. We aimed to assess systemic, cerebral, and cardiac hemodynamic changes in preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) on HFOV. METHODS This observational study was conducted from June 2017 until May 2019 on 100 preterm neonates with RDS that needed switching from conventional mechanical ventilation to HFOV. Initial and Follow up capillary blood gas, echocardiographic examination, cranial ultrasound, and Doppler study of cerebral, celiac, superior mesenteric, and renal arteries using resistive index (RI) were performed before, 24 h, and 72 h after the use of HFOV. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference as regards cardiac function, heart rate, or intraventricular hemorrhage on follow up measurements. However blood pressure, left ventricular dimensions, and volumes statistically increased after HFOV. There was a statistically significant decrease in the pulmonary artery systolic pressure after the use of HFOV. After the use of HFOV, there was a statistically significant increase in the superior vena cava flow and left ventricular output while right ventricular output values initially increased then slightly decreased but still higher than the initial values. RI of cerebral, superior mesenteric, celiac, and renal arteries significantly decreased on follow up measurements which reflected increased blood flow in these arteries. CONCLUSION HFOV had no negative effect on the cerebral, systemic, or cardiac hemodynamics when applied at optimum MAP. Therefore, concerns about negative hemodynamic effects of HFOV should not discourage the use of HFOV when deemed clinically indicated provided the use of optimum MAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Electrical cardiometry (EC) is an impedance-based monitoring that provides noninvasive cardiac output (CO) assessment. Through comparison to transthoracic echocardiography (Echo), the accuracy of EC has been verified. However, left-to-right patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) shunting is a concern because PDA shunts aortic flow to the pulmonary artery and may interfere with EC in measuring CO. OBJECTIVE To determine the agreement between EC and Echo in preterm infants with a hemodynamically significant PDA (hsPDA). METHODS We reviewed our hemodynamic database in which simultaneous CO measurements by Echo and EC (Aesculon®) were recorded. Preterm infants with left-to-right shunting hsPDA were enrolled. RESULTS A total of 105 paired measurements in 36 preterm infants were compared. Infants' median (range) age and weight at measurement were 27+2 weeks (24+0-33+1) and 1,015 g (518-1,880), with mean (95% CI) ductal diameter 2.11 mm (1.99-2.22) or 2.15 mm/kg (2.00-2.30). Mean COEC and COEcho were 252 ± 32 and 258 ± 45 mL/kg/min, respectively, which demonstrated a moderate correlation and without a significant between-measurement difference. Bland-Altman analysis showed a bias, limits of agreement, and error percentage of -5.3 mL/kg/min, -78.3 to 67.7 mL/kg/min, and 28.6%, respectively. There was a trend of increased bias and error percentage of infants with high CO ≥280 mL/kg/min and supported with high-frequency ventilator. CONCLUSIONS EC and Echo have a wide but clinically acceptable agreement in measuring CO in preterm infants with hsPDA. However, for infants with high CO or ventilated by high-frequency ventilation, interpretation of COEC should be approached with caution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a noninvasive technique for monitoring tissue oxygenation and perfusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate cerebral and splanchnic NIRS changes in CDH operated infants enrolled into the VICI trial and therefore randomized for ventilatory modalities. MATERIALS AND METHODS CDH newborns enrolled into the VICI trial (Netherlands Trial Register, NTR 1310) were randomized at birth for high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) or conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) according to the trial. Cerebral oxygenation (rSO2C) and splanchnic oxygenation (rSO2S) were obtained by NIRS (INVOS 5100; Somanetics, Troy, MI) before and after surgery. Variations in rSO2C and rSO2S were evaluated. Mann-Whitney test and one-way ANOVA were used as appropriate. p<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Thirteen VICI trial patients underwent surgical repair between March 2011 and December 2012, and were enrolled in the study. Seven patients were assigned to HFOV and six to CMV group respectively. During surgery, a significant reduction in rSO2C (p=0.0001) and rSO2S (p=0.005) were observed. HFOV patients experienced prolonged reduction in rSO2C value (p=0.003) while rSO2S did not vary between HFOV and CMV (p=0.94). CONCLUSIONS Surgical CDH repair was associated with decrease of cerebral and splanchnic oxygenation, regardless of ventilation. Patients ventilated by HFOV need a longer time interval to recovery normal rSO2C values, than those ventilated by CMV. This may be owing to a different impact of HFOV on patients' hemodynamic status with a higher impairment on total venous return and its negative consequences on cardiac output.

Abstract
Critically ill patients with respiratory pathology often require mechanical ventilation and while low tidal volume ventilation has become the mainstay of treatment, achieving adequate gas exchange may not be attainable with conventional ventilator modalities. In attempt to achieve gas exchange goals and also mitigate lung injury, high frequency ventilation is often implemented which couples low tidal volumes with sustained mean airway pressure. This manuscript presents the physiology of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, reviews the currently available data on its use and provides strategies and approaches for this mode of ventilation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Experience with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) after congenital cardiac surgery is limited despite evidence about reduction in pulmonary vascular resistance after the Fontan procedure. HFOV is recommended in adults and children with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The aim of the present study was to assess associations between commencement of HFOV on the day of surgery and length of mechanical ventilation, length of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay and mortality in neonates and infants with respiratory distress following cardiac surgery. METHODS A logistic regression model was used to develop a propensity score, which accounted for the probability of being switched from conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) to HFOV on the day of surgery. It included baseline characteristics, type of procedure and postoperative variables, and was used to match each patient with HFOV with a control patient, in whom CMV was used exclusively. Length of mechanical ventilation, ICU stay and mortality rates were compared in the matched set. RESULTS Overall, 3,549 neonates and infants underwent cardiac surgery from January 2001 through June 2010, 120 patients were switched to HFOV and matched with 120 controls. After adjustment for the delay to sternal closure, duration of renal replacement therapy, occurrence of pulmonary hypertension and year of surgery, the probability of successful weaning over time and the probability of ICU delivery over time were significantly higher in patients with HFOV, adjusted hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals: 1.63, 1.17 to 2.26 (P = 0.004). and 1.65, 95% confidence intervals: 1.20 to 2.28 (P = 0.002) respectively. No association was found with mortality. CONCLUSIONS When commenced on the day of surgery in neonates and infants with respiratory distress following cardiac surgery, HFOV was associated with shorter lengths of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay than CMV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is associated with mortality of 10% to 50%. Several investigators have reported outcomes from centers using high-frequency oscillatory ventilation in their management of CDH, but there are no recent reports on use of high-frequency jet ventilation. METHODS During the study period from January 2001 until August 2007, infants with CDH who were cared for at Duke University Medical Center received high-frequency jet ventilation as a rescue mode of high-frequency ventilation. We compared actual survival with predicted survival for infants treated only with conventional ventilation vs those rescued with high-frequency jet ventilation after failing conventional ventilation. RESULTS Survival for the 16 infants that received high-frequency jet ventilation was predicted to be 63%; actual survival was 75%. Survival for the 15 infants that received only conventional ventilation was predicted to be 83%; actual survival was 87%. We observed no significant survival benefit for high-frequency jet ventilation, 8.0% (95 confidence interval, -22.0% to 38.1%; P = .59). CONCLUSIONS Although our sample size was small, we conclude with consideration of the absolute results, the degree of illness of the infants, and the biologic plausibility for the intervention that high-frequency jet ventilation is an acceptable rescue ventilation mode for infants with CDH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of HFOV in pediatric patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. METHODS In this retrospective study, we reviewed all 20 pediatric patients, who were consecutively ventilated with HFOV in the pediatric intensive care unit of a tertiary medical center, from January 2006 to February 2007. RESULTS A total of 20 patients were enrolled. The median age of the subjects was 70 (3-168) months; 10 were male. All patients received conventional ventilation before HFOV. After initiation of HFOV, there was an immediate and sustained increase in PaO(2)/FiO(2) ratio. The PaO(2)/FiO(2) ratio was elevated and OI was decreased significantly after 10-20 minutes and maintained for at least 48 hours (p= 0.03, both). Thirteen of the 20 patients were successfully weaned. No significant change in the mean arterial pressure and heart rate was noted after HFOV. Overall survival rate was 65%. Of 20 patients, 11 patients suffered from extrapulmonary ARDS (ARDSexp) and 9 from pulmonary ARDS (ARDSp). When HFOV was initiated, there was significant increase in PaO(2)/FiO(2) and decrease in OI in ARDSexp compared to ARDSp (p= 0.03, both). Also mortality rate was significantly lower in patients with ARDSexp (9% vs.66%), (p= 0.01). CONCLUSION In our study, HFOV was effective in oxygenation and seems to be safe for pediatric ARDS patients. HFOV affected ARDSp and ARDSexp paediatric patients differently. However prospective, randomized controlled trials are needed to identify its benefits over conventional modes of mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
Despite advances in ventilator management, 31% to 38% of patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) will die, some from progressive respiratory failure. Inability to adequately oxygenate patients with severe ARDS has prompted extensive efforts to identify what are now known as alternative modes of ventilation including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and airway pressure release ventilation. Both modalities are based on the principles of the open-lung concept and aim to improve oxygenation by keeping the lung uniformly inflated for an extended period of time. Although a mortality benefit has not been proven, some patients may benefit from these alternative modes of ventilation as rescue measures while the underlying process resolves. The purpose of this article is to review the evidence and mechanisms underlying each modality and to describe the fundamental steps in initiating, adjusting, and terminating these modes of ventilation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report the use of high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) in two children with severe traumatic brain injury and concurrent lung pathology where conventional mechanical ventilation was ineffective. DESIGN : Case report. SETTING Regional intensive care unit in a pediatric teaching hospital. PATIENTS Two severely head-injured children (both with postresuscitation Glasgow Coma Scores of 3), one of whom was age 11 yrs and developed an invasive fungal (rhizomucor) pneumonia, while the other age 5 yrs had bilateral lung contusions. Both were treated according to local head injury guidelines, which included conventional ventilation. Despite increasing conventional ventilatory support, CO2 removal became problematic in both cases, making the intracranial pressure control and consequent maintenance of adequate cerebral perfusion pressure difficult. In both patients, a dramatic reduction in intracranial pressure and improvement in cerebral perfusion pressure was observed soon after the use of HFOV. Additionally, inotropic support was weaned by 50% in both children after commencing HFOV. A significant increase in the mean arterial blood pressure occurred in one child with HFOV. INTERVENTION Use of HFOV as an alternative to conventional mechanical ventilation. CONCLUSION HFOV may have utility in the management of selected cases of severe brain trauma with concurrent lung pathology where conventional ventilation is ineffective.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of therapy for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Paradoxically, mechanical ventilation can exacerbate lung damage – a phenomenon known as ventilator-induced lung injury. While new ventilation strategies have reduced the mortality rate in patients with ARDS, this mortality rate still remains high. High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is an unconventional form of ventilation that may improve oxygenation in patients with ARDS, while limiting further lung injury associated with high ventilatory pressures and volumes delivered during conventional ventilation. HFOV has been used for almost two decades in the neonatal population, but there is more limited experience with HFOV in the adult population. In adults, the majority of the published literature is in the form of small observational studies in which HFOV was used as 'rescue' therapy for patients with very severe ARDS who were failing conventional ventilation. Two prospective randomized controlled trials, however, while showing no mortality benefit, have suggested that HFOV, compared with conventional ventilation, is a safe and effective ventilation strategy for adults with ARDS. Several studies suggest that HFOV may improve outcomes if used early in the course of ARDS, or if used in certain populations. This review will summarize the evidence supporting the use of HFOV in adults with ARDS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current practice at high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) initiation is a stepwise increase of the constant applied airway pressure to achieve lung recruitment. We hypothesized that HFOV would lead to more adverse cerebral haemodynamics than does pressure controlled ventilation (PCV) in the presence of experimental intracranial hypertension (IH) and acute lung injury (ALI) in pigs with similar mean airway pressure settings. METHODS In 12 anesthetized pigs (24-27 kg) with IH and ALI, mean airway pressure (P(mean)) was increased (to 20, 25, 30 cm H(2)O every 30 min), either with HFOV or with PCV. The order of the two ventilatory modes (cross-over) was randomized. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), cerebral blood flow (CBF) (fluorescent microspheres), cerebral metabolism, transpulmonary pressures (P(T)), and blood gases were determined at each P(mean) setting. Our end-points of interest related to the cerebral circulation were ICP, CPP and CBF. RESULTS CBF and cerebral metabolism were unaffected but there were no differences between the values for HFOV and PCV. ICP increased slightly (HFOV median +1 mm Hg, P<0.05; PCV median +2 mm Hg, P<0.05). At P(mean) setting of 30 cm H(2)O, CPP decreased during HFOV (median -13 mm Hg, P<0.05) and PCV (median -17 mm Hg, P<0.05) paralleled by a decrease of MAP (HFOV median -11 mm Hg, P<0.05; PCV median -13 mm Hg, P<0.05). P(T) increased (HFOV median +8 cm H(2)O, P<0.05; PCV median +8 cm H(2)O, P<0.05). Oxygenation improved and normocapnia maintained by HFOV and PCV. There were no differences between both ventilatory modes. CONCLUSIONS In animals with elevated ICP and ALI, both ventilatory modes had effects upon cerebral haemodynamics. The effects upon cerebral haemodynamics were dependent of the P(T) level without differences between both ventilatory modes at similar P(mean) settings. HFOV seems to be a possible alternative ventilatory strategy when MAP deterioration can be avoided.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Changes in mean airway pressure affect cardiac output during conventional positive pressure ventilation. The effect of high-frequency oscillation ventilation (HFOV) on cardiac output is less studied. METHODS A prospective study in a university hospital pediatric intensive care unit. Fourteen patients aged <1 year and weighing <10 kg who were on HFOV were included. All patients had been on HFOV for >12 h and were considered to be in a stable condition. In the study group (n = 9) the mean proximal airway pressure (Paw) was increased and decreased by +5 and -3 cmH2O, respectively, from baseline in each patient. Measurements were made at each level including baseline settings between each change. In a control group (n = 5) no changes in ventilatory parameters were made. Cardiac output was assessed with echocardiography and the Doppler technique at each level of Paw and at similar intervals in the control group. RESULTS Cardiac output changed significantly when Paw was changed in the study group (P = 0.02), with the greatest change at the highest Paw at -11% (range: -19 to -9) compared with baseline. We found no significant changes over time in the control group. CONCLUSION This study shows that CO is affected by changes in mean airway pressure during HFOV in concordance with the known effects of mean airway pressure during conventional positive pressure ventilation. The mean changes are smaller than expected compared with earlier studies of conventional mechanical ventilation. Further studies are needed to better understand these relationships.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the pharmacokinetics of gentamicin in infants receiving high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) with infants receiving conventional mechanical ventilation. DESIGN A case-controlled study design was used to compare the pharmacokinetics of gentamicin in critically ill infants receiving HFOV and conventional mechanical ventilation. Medical records of all full-term newborn infants (> or =37 weeks gestational age) who received either high-frequency mechanical ventilation or conventional mechanical ventilation between 1991 and 2001 were reviewed and relevant patient demographics, renal function tests and gentamicin administration and plasma concentration data collected. Elimination rate constant, half-life, volume of distribution and clearance for both groups were calculated using standard kinetics equations. SETTING A tertiary care children's hospital. PATIENTS Newborn infants, > or =37 weeks gestational age, receiving gentamicin and high-frequency mechanical ventilation or conventional mechanical ventilation. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In total, 18 patients were included in the conventional mechanical ventilation group and 15 in the HFOV group. The mean gentamicin dose for conventional mechanical ventilation and HFOV groups infants were 2.52+/-0.07 and 2.5+/-0.07 mg/kg/dose, respectively. Initial dosing interval was 12 hours in all of the conventional mechanical ventilation infants and 13 of the 15 HFOV infants. The dosing interval for the remaining two HFOV infants was 18 hours. No patient in either group demonstrated oliguria. Statistical analysis using the Student t-test for unequal variances yielded significant differences between the two groups with regard to elimination rate constant, half-life, volume of distribution and clearance, with a p value of <0.05 for all the observations. The mean of the highest P(aw) received by each patient in the HFOV group (19.2+/-4.05) was considerably higher than in the conventional mechanical ventilation group (13.4+2.23) (p>0.05). CONCLUSION Infants receiving HFOV had reduced gentamicin clearance. Full-term infants receiving HFOV should be initiated at gentamicin dosing intervals of 18 hours rather than the traditional 12 hours recommended for this age group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low superior vena cava (SVC) flow is common in very preterm infants in the first day and strongly associated with periventricular hemorrhage and disability. We examined the effect of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) compared with conventional ventilation (CV) on SVC flow and right ventricular output. METHODS Forty-five infants <29 weeks were randomized before 1 hour of age to HFOV or CV. Echocardiography was performed on 43 infants at 3, 10, and 24 hours of age. Infants with low SVC flow (<50 mL/kg/min) or hypotension (mean blood pressure < or =20) were treated with volume and inotrope. RESULTS Infants allocated to HFOV (n=23) and to CV (n=20) were well matched. There was a nonsignificant trend toward more infants on HFOV having SVC flow <50 mL/kg/min (48% vs 20%) and receiving volume and inotropes (61% vs 40%). There were no significant differences in mean SVC flow or right ventricular output at 3, 10, or 24 hours. Infants on HFOV had a significantly higher calculated upper body vascular resistance at 10 hours and mean blood pressure at 24 hours. CONCLUSIONS There were no significant adverse effects of HFOV on systemic blood flow in very preterm infants during the first 24 hours of life.

Abstract
In an effort to decrease morbidity and mortality, newer modes of mechanical ventilation have been introduced into the critical care arena. One such technique, high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) relies on respiratory rates greater than 150 b.min-1, small tidal volumes, and the maintenance of a constant distending pressure thereby limiting peak inflating pressure and potentially the incidence of barotrauma. Despite the frequent application of this technique in the ICU setting, there is limited information concerning its intraoperative use. We present three infants who represent the perioperative applications of HFOV: (i) elective preoperative use to minimize lung movement and interference with surgical exposure during thoracotomy and PDA ligation; (ii) intraoperative application when progressive alterations in respiratory compliance led to ineffective intraoperative ventilation/oxygenation; and (iii) anaesthetic care for a neonate already receiving HFOV. The techniques of HFOV and previous reports of perioperative use are reviewed.

PATIENTS Twenty-four adults (10 females, 14 males, aged 48.5 +/- 15.2 yrs, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score 21.5 +/- 6.9) with ARDS (lung injury score 3.4 +/- 0.6, Pao2/Fio2 98.8 +/- 39.0 mm Hg, and oxygenation index 32.5 +/- 19.6) who met one of the following criteria: Pao2 < or =65 mm Hg with Fio2 > or =0.6, or plateau pressure > or =35 cm H2O. INTERVENTIONS HFOV was initiated in patients with ARDS after varying periods of conventional ventilation (CV). Mean airway pressure (Paw) was initially set 5 cm H2O greater than Paw during CV, and was subsequently titrated to maintain oxygen saturation between 88% and 93% and Fio2 < or =0.60. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Fio2, Paw, pressure amplitude of oscillation, frequency, blood pressure, heart rate, and arterial blood gases were monitored during the transition from CV to HFOV, and every 8 hrs thereafter for 72 hrs. In 16 patients who had pulmonary artery catheters in place, cardiac hemodynamics were recorded at the same time intervals. Throughout the HFOV trial, Paw was significantly higher than that applied during CV. Within 8 hrs of HFOV application, and for the duration of the trial, Fio2 and Paco2 were lower, and Pao2/Fio2 was higher than baseline values during CV. Significant changes in hemodynamic variables following HFOV initiation included an increase in pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (at 8 and 40 hrs) and central venous pressure (at 16 and 40 hrs), and a reduction in cardiac output throughout the course of the study. There were no significant changes in systemic or pulmonary pressure associated with initiation and maintenance of HFOV. Complications occurring during HFOV included pneumothorax in two patients and desiccation of secretions in one patient. Survival at 30 days was 33%, with survivors having been mechanically ventilated for fewer days before institution of HFOV compared with nonsurvivors (1.6 +/- 1.2 vs. 7.8 +/- 5.8 days; p =.001). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that HFOV has beneficial effects on oxygenation and ventilation, and may be a safe and effective rescue therapy for patients with severe oxygenation failure. In addition, early institution of HFOV may be advantageous.
