Clinical practice, decision-making, and use of clinical decision support systems in invasive mechanical ventilation: a narrative review. Br J Anaesth 2024; 133:164-177. [PMID: 38637268 PMCID: PMC11213991 DOI: 10.1016/j.bja.2024.03.011] [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: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Invasive mechanical ventilation is a key supportive therapy for patients on intensive care. There is increasing emphasis on personalised ventilation strategies. Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) have been developed to support this. We conducted a narrative review to assess evidence that could inform device implementation. A search was conducted in MEDLINE (Ovid) and EMBASE. Twenty-nine studies met the inclusion criteria. Role allocation is well described, with interprofessional collaboration dependent on culture, nurse:patient ratio, the use of protocols, and perception of responsibility. There were no descriptions of process measures, quality metrics, or clinical workflow. Nurse-led weaning is well-described, with factors grouped by patient, nurse, and system. Physician-led weaning is heterogenous, guided by subjective and objective information, and 'gestalt'. No studies explored decision-making with CDSS. Several explored facilitators and barriers to implementation, grouped by clinician (facilitators: confidence using CDSS, retaining decision-making ownership; barriers: undermining clinician's role, ambiguity moving off protocol), intervention (facilitators: user-friendly interface, ease of workflow integration, minimal training requirement; barriers: increased documentation time), and organisation (facilitators: system-level mandate; barriers: poor communication, inconsistent training, lack of technical support). One study described factors that support CDSS implementation. There are gaps in our understanding of ventilation practice. A coordinated approach grounded in implementation science is required to support CDSS implementation. Future research should describe factors that guide clinical decision-making throughout mechanical ventilation, with and without CDSS, map clinical workflow, and devise implementation toolkits. Novel research design analogous to a learning organisation, that considers the commercial aspects of device design, is required.

Limiting Overdistention or Collapse When Mechanically Ventilating Injured Lungs: A Randomized Study in a Porcine Model. Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2024; 209:1441-1452. [PMID: 38354065 DOI: 10.1164/rccm.202310-1895oc] [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: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: It is unknown whether preventing overdistention or collapse is more important when titrating positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Objectives: To compare PEEP targeting minimal overdistention or minimal collapse or using a compromise between collapse and overdistention in a randomized trial and to assess the impact on respiratory mechanics, gas exchange, inflammation, and hemodynamics. Methods: In a porcine model of ARDS, lung collapse and overdistention were estimated using electrical impedance tomography during a decremental PEEP titration. Pigs were randomized to three groups and ventilated for 12 hours: PEEP set at ⩽3% of overdistention (low overdistention), ⩽3% of collapse (low collapse), and the crossing point of collapse and overdistention. Measurements and Main Results: Thirty-six pigs (12 per group) were included. Median (interquartile range) values of PEEP were 7 (6-8), 11 (10-11), and 15 (12-16) cm H2O in the three groups (P < 0.001). With low overdistension, 6 (50%) pigs died, whereas survival was 100% in both other groups. Cause of death was hemodynamic in nature, with high transpulmonary vascular gradient and high epinephrine requirements. Compared with the other groups, pigs surviving with low overdistension had worse respiratory mechanics and gas exchange during the entire protocol. Minimal differences existed between crossing-point and low-collapse animals in physiological parameters, but postmortem alveolar density was more homogeneous in the crossing-point group. Inflammatory markers were not significantly different. Conclusions: PEEP to minimize overdistention resulted in high mortality in an animal model of ARDS. Minimizing collapse or choosing a compromise between collapse and overdistention may result in less lung injury, with potential benefits of the compromise approach.

High vs Low PEEP in Patients With ARDS Exhibiting Intense Inspiratory Effort During Assisted Ventilation: A Randomized Crossover Trial. Chest 2024; 165:1392-1405. [PMID: 38295949 DOI: 10.1016/j.chest.2024.01.040] [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: 10/01/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can potentially modulate inspiratory effort (ΔPes), which is the major determinant of self-inflicted lung injury. RESEARCH QUESTION Does high PEEP reduce ΔPes in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS on assisted ventilation? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Sixteen patients with Pao2/Fio2 ≤ 200 mm Hg and ΔPes ≥ 10 cm H2O underwent a randomized sequence of four ventilator settings: PEEP = 5 cm H2O or PEEP = 15 cm H2O + synchronous (pressure support ventilation [PSV]) or asynchronous (pressure-controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation [PC-IMV]) inspiratory assistance. ΔPes and respiratory system, lung, and chest wall mechanics were assessed with esophageal manometry and occlusions. PEEP-induced alveolar recruitment and overinflation, lung dynamic strain, and tidal volume distribution were assessed with electrical impedance tomography. RESULTS ΔPes was not systematically different at high vs low PEEP (pressure support ventilation: median, 20 cm H2O; interquartile range (IQR), 15-24 cm H2O vs median, 15 cm H2O; IQR, 13-23 cm H2O; P = .24; pressure-controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation: median, 20; IQR, 18-23 vs median, 19; IQR, 17-25; P = .67, respectively). Similarly, respiratory system and transpulmonary driving pressures, tidal volume, lung/chest wall mechanics, and pendelluft extent were not different between study phases. High PEEP resulted in lower or higher ΔPes, respiratory system driving pressure, and transpulmonary driving pressure according to whether this increased or decreased respiratory system compliance (r = -0.85, P < .001; r = -0.75, P < .001; r = -0.80, P < .001, respectively). PEEP-induced changes in respiratory system compliance were driven by its lung component and were dependent on the extent of PEEP-induced alveolar overinflation (r = -0.66, P = .006). High PEEP caused variable recruitment and systematic redistribution of tidal volume toward dorsal lung regions, thereby reducing dynamic strain in ventral areas (pressure support ventilation: median, 0.49; IQR, 0.37-0.83 vs median, 0.96; IQR, 0.62-1.56; P = .003; pressure-controlled intermittent mandatory ventilation: median, 0.65; IQR, 0.42-1.31 vs median, 1.14; IQR, 0.79-1.52; P = .002). All results were consistent during synchronous and asynchronous inspiratory assistance. INTERPRETATION The impact of high PEEP on ΔPes and lung stress is interindividually variable according to different effects on the respiratory system and lung compliance resulting from alveolar overinflation. High PEEP may help mitigate the risk of self-inflicted lung injury solely if it increases lung/respiratory system compliance. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov; No.: NCT04241874; URL: www.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preliminary studies suggest that moderate ARDS and acute renal failure might benefit from extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) coupled with CRRT. However, evidence is limited and potential for this coupled treatment may need to be explored. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether a protective driving pressure was obtained applying low-flow ECCO2-R plus CRRT in patients affected by moderate ARDS with COVID-19 compared to an historical group without COVID-19. METHODS A case-control study has been conducted comparing a group of consecutive moderate ARDS patients presenting AKI and affected by COVID-19, who needed low-flow ECCO2-R plus CRRT to achieve an ultra-protective ventilatory strategy, with historical group without COVID-19 that matched for clinical presentation and underwent the same ultra-protective treatment. VT was set at 6 mL/kg predicted body weight then ECCO2R was assessed to facilitate ultra-protective low VT ventilation to preserve safe Pplat and low driving pressure. RESULTS ECCO2R+CRRT reduced the driving pressure from 17 (14-18) to 11.5 (10-15) cmH2O (p<0.0004) in the fourteen ARDS patients by decreasing VT from 6.7 ml/kg PBW (6.1-6.9) to 5.1 (4.2-5.6) after 1 hour (p <0.0001). In the ARDS patients with COVID-19, the driving pressure reduction was more effective from baseline 18 (14-24) cmH2O to 11 (10-15) cmH2O (p<0.004), compared to the control group from 15 (13-17) to 12(10-16) cmH2O (p< 0.03), after one hour. ECCO2R+CRRT did not affected 28 days mortality in the two groups, while we observed a shorter duration of mechanical ventilation (19 {7-29} vs 24 {22-38} days; p=0.24) and ICU length of stay (19 {7-29} vs 24 {22-78} days; p=0.25) in moderate ARDS patients with COVID-19 compared to control group. CONCLUSIONS In moderate ARDS patients with or without COVID-19 disease, ECCO2R+CRRT may be and effective supportive treatment to reach protective values of driving pressure unless severe oxygenation defects arise requiring ECMO therapy initiation.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a major issue in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Standard oxygen therapy is the first-line therapy for ARF in the less severe cases. However, respiratory supports may be delivered in more severe clinical condition. In cases with life-threatening ARF, invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) will be required. Noninvasive strategies such as high-flow nasal therapy (HFNT) or noninvasive ventilation (NIV) by either face mask or helmet might cover the gap between standard oxygen and IMV. The objective of all the supporting measures for ARF is to gain time for the antimicrobial treatment to cure the pneumonia. There is uncertainty regarding which patients with severe CAP are most likely to benefit from each noninvasive support strategy. HFNT may be the first-line approach in the majority of patients. While NIV may be relatively contraindicated in patients with excessive secretions, facial hair/structure resulting in air leaks or poor compliance, NIV may be preferable in those with increased work of breathing, respiratory muscle fatigue, and congestive heart failure, in which the positive pressure of NIV may positively impact hemodynamics. A trial of NIV might be considered for select patients with hypoxemic ARF if there are no contraindications, with close monitoring by an experienced clinical team who can intubate patients promptly if they deteriorate. In such cases, individual clinician judgement is key to choose NIV, interface, and settings. Due to the paucity of studies addressing IMV in this population, the protective mechanical ventilation strategies recommended by guidelines for acute respiratory distress syndrome can be reasonably applied in patients with severe CAP.

Abstract
Transpulmonary pressure (PL) calculation requires esophageal pressure (PES) as a surrogate of pleural pressure (Ppl), but its calibration is a cumbersome technique. Central venous pressure (CVP) swings may reflect tidal variations in Ppl and could be used instead of PES, but the interpretation of CVP waveforms could be difficult due to superposition of heartbeat-induced pressure changes. Thus, we developed a digital filter able to remove the cardiac noise to obtain a filtered CVP (f-CVP). The aim of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of CVP and filtered CVP swings (ΔCVP and Δf-CVP, respectively) in estimating esophageal respiratory swings (ΔPES) and compare PL calculated with CVP, f-CVP and PES; then we tested the diagnostic accuracy of the f-CVP method to identify unsafe high PL levels, defined as PL>10 cmH2O. Twenty patients with acute respiratory failure (defined as PaO2/FiO2 ratio below 200 mmHg) treated with invasive mechanical ventilation and monitored with an esophageal balloon and central venous catheter were enrolled prospectively. For each patient a recording session at baseline was performed, repeated if a modification in ventilatory settings occurred. PES, CVP and airway pressure during an end-inspiratory and -expiratory pause were simultaneously recorded; CVP, f-CVP and PES waveforms were analyzed off-line and used to calculate transpulmonary pressure (PLCVP, PLf-CVP, PLPES, respectively). Δf-CVP correlated better than ΔCVP with ΔPES (r = 0.8, p = 0.001 vs. r = 0.08, p = 0.73), with a lower bias in Bland Altman analysis in favor of PLf-CVP (mean bias - 0.16, Limits of Agreement (LoA) -1.31, 0.98 cmH2O vs. mean bias - 0.79, LoA - 3.14, 1.55 cmH2O). Both PLf-CVP and PLCVP correlated well with PLPES (r = 0.98, p < 0.001 vs. r = 0.94, p < 0.001), again with a lower bias in Bland Altman analysis in favor of PLf-CVP (0.15, LoA - 0.95, 1.26 cmH2O vs. 0.80, LoA - 1.51, 3.12, cmH2O). PLf-CVP discriminated high PL value with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve 0.99 (standard deviation, SD, 0.02) (AUC difference = 0.01 [-0.024; 0.05], p = 0.48). In mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory failure, the digital filtered CVP estimated ΔPES and PL obtained from digital filtered CVP represented a reliable value of standard PL measured with the esophageal method and could identify patients with non-protective ventilation settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the feasibility of setting the tidal volume (TV) as 25% of the actual aerated lung volume (rather than on ideal body weight) in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). DESIGN Physiologic prospective single-center pilot study. SETTING Medical ICU specialized in the care of patients with ARDS. PATIENTS Patients with moderate-severe ARDS deeply sedated or paralyzed, undergoing controlled mechanical ventilation with a ventilator able to measure the end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) with a washin, washout technique. INTERVENTIONS Three-phase study (baseline, strain-selected TV setting, ventilation with strain-selected TV for 24 hr). The TV was calculated as 25% of the measured EELV minus the static strain due to the applied positive end-expiratory pressure. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Gas exchanges and respiratory mechanics were measured and compared in each phase. In addition, during the TV setting phase, driving pressure (DP) and lung strain (TV/EELV) were measured at different TVs to assess the correlation between the two measurements. The maintenance of the set strain-selected TV for 24 hours was safe and feasible in 76% of the patients enrolled. Three patients dropped out from the study because of the need to set a respiratory rate higher than 35 breaths per minute to avoid respiratory acidosis. The DP of the respiratory system was a satisfactory surrogate for strain in this population. CONCLUSIONS In our population of 17 patients with moderate to severe ARDS, setting TV based on the actual lung size was feasible. DP was a reliable surrogate of strain in these patients, and DP less than or equal to 8 cm H2O corresponded to a strain less than 0.25.

Recruitment-to-inflation Ratio Assessed through Sequential End-expiratory Lung Volume Measurement in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Anesthesiology 2023; 139:801-814.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) benefits in acute respiratory distress syndrome are driven by lung dynamic strain reduction. This depends on the variable extent of alveolar recruitment. The recruitment-to-inflation ratio estimates recruitability across a 10-cm H2O PEEP range through a simplified maneuver. Whether recruitability is uniform or not across this range is unknown. The hypotheses of this study are that the recruitment-to-inflation ratio represents an accurate estimate of PEEP-induced changes in dynamic strain, but may show nonuniform behavior across the conventionally tested PEEP range (15 to 5 cm H2O). METHODS Twenty patients with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome underwent a decremental PEEP trial (PEEP 15 to 13 to 10 to 8 to 5 cm H2O). Respiratory mechanics and end-expiratory lung volume by nitrogen dilution were measured the end of each step. Gas exchange, recruited volume, recruitment-to-inflation ratio, and changes in dynamic, static, and total strain were computed between 15 and 5 cm H2O (global recruitment-to-inflation ratio) and within narrower PEEP ranges (granular recruitment-to-inflation ratio). RESULTS Between 15 and 5 cm H2O, median [interquartile range] global recruitment-to-inflation ratio was 1.27 [0.40 to 1.69] and displayed a linear correlation with PEEP-induced dynamic strain reduction (r = -0.94; P < 0.001). Intraindividual recruitment-to-inflation ratio variability within the narrower ranges was high (85% [70 to 109]). The relationship between granular recruitment-to-inflation ratio and PEEP was mathematically described by a nonlinear, quadratic equation (R2 = 0.96). Granular recruitment-to-inflation ratio across the narrower PEEP ranges itself had a linear correlation with PEEP-induced reduction in dynamic strain (r = -0.89; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Both global and granular recruitment-to-inflation ratio accurately estimate PEEP-induced changes in lung dynamic strain. However, the effect of 10 cm H2O of PEEP on lung strain may be nonuniform. Granular recruitment-to-inflation ratio assessment within narrower PEEP ranges guided by end-expiratory lung volume measurement may aid more precise PEEP selection, especially when the recruitment-to-inflation ratio obtained with the simplified maneuver between PEEP 15 and 5 cm H2O yields intermediate values that are difficult to interpret for a proper choice between a high and low PEEP strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the acute distress respiratory syndrome (ARDS), specific lung regions can be exposed to excessive strain due to heterogeneous disease, gravity-dependent lung collapse and injurious mechanical ventilation. Computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for regional strain assessment. An alternative tool could be the electrical impedance tomography (EIT). We aimed to determine whether EIT-based methods can predict the dynamic relative regional strain (DRRS) between two levels of end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in gravity-non-dependent and dependent lung regions. METHODS Fourteen ARDS patients underwent CT and EIT acquisitions (at end-inspiratory and end-expiratory) at two levels of PEEP: a low-PEEP based on ARDS-net strategy and a high-PEEP titrated according to EIT. Three EIT-based methods for DRRS were compared to relative CT-based strain: (1) the change of the ratio between EIT ventilation and end-expiratory lung impedance in arbitrary units ([ΔZAU low-PEEP/EELIAU low-PEEP]/[ΔZAU high-PEEP/EELIAU high-PEEP]), (2) the change of ΔZ/EELI ratio calibrated to mL ([ΔZml low-PEEP/EELIml low-PEEP]/[ΔZml high-PEEP/EELIml high-PEEP]) using CT data, and (3) the relative change of ∆ZAU (∆ZAU low-PEEP/∆ZAU high-PEEP). We performed linear regressions analysis and calculated bias and limits of agreement to assess the performance of DRRS by EIT in comparison with CT. RESULTS The DRRS assessed by (ΔZml low-PEEP/EELIml low-PEEP)/(ΔZml high-PEEP/EELIml high-PEEP) and ∆ZAU low-PEEP/∆ZAU high-PEEP showed good relationship and agreement with the CT method (R2 of 0.9050 and 0.8679, respectively, in non-dependent region; R2 of 0.8373 and 0.6588, respectively, in dependent region; biases ranging from - 0.11 to 0.51 and limits of agreement ranging from - 0.73 to 1.16 for both methods and lung regions). Conversely, DRRS based on EELIAU ([ΔZAU low-PEEP/EELIAU low-PEEP]/[ΔZAU high-PEEP/EELIAU high-PEEP]) exhibited a weak negative relationship and poor agreement with the CT method for both non-dependent and dependent regions (R2 ~ 0.3; bias of 3.11 and 2.08, and limits of agreement of - 2.13 to 8.34 and from - 1.49 to 5.64, respectively). CONCLUSION Changes in DRRS during a PEEP trial in ARDS patients could be monitored using EIT, based on changes in ΔZmL/EELIml and ∆ZAU. The relative change ∆ZAU offers the advantage of not requiring CT data for calibration.

[PMID: 37258380 DOI: 10.1053/j.semnuclmed.2023.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
18F-FDG-PET/CT imaging has become a key tool to evaluate infectious and inflammatory diseases. However, application of 18F-FDG-PET/CT in patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) is limited, which is remarkable since the development of critical illness is closely linked to infection and inflammation. This limited use is caused by perceived complexity and risk of planning and executing 18F-FDG-PET/CT in such patients. The aim of this systematic review was to investigate the feasibility of 18F-FDG-PET/CT in ICU patients with special emphasis on patient preparation, transport logistics and safety. Therefore, a systematic search was performed in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science using the search terms: intensive care, critically ill, positron emission tomography and 18F-FDG or derivates. A total of 1183 articles were found of which 10 were included. Three studies evaluated the pathophysiology of acute respiratory distress syndrome, acute lung injury and acute chest syndrome. Three other studies applied 18F-FDG-PET/CT to increase understanding of pathophysiology after traumatic brain injury. The remaining four studies evaluated infection of unknown origin. These four studies showed a sensitivity and specificity between 85%-100% and 57%-88%, respectively. A remarkable low adverse event rate of 2% was found during the entire 18F-FDG-PET/CT procedure, including desaturation and hypotension. In all studies, a team consisting of an intensive care physician and nurse was present during transport to ensure continuation of necessary critical care. Full monitoring during transport was used in patients requiring mechanical ventilation or vasopressor support. None of the studies used specific patient preparation for ICU patients. However, one article described specific recommendations in their discussion. In conclusion, 18F-FDG-PET/CT has been shown to be feasible and safe in ICU patients, even when ventilated or requiring vasopressors. Specific recommendations regarding patient preparation, logistics and scanning are needed. Including 18F-FDG-PET/CT in routine workup of infection of unknown origin in ICU patients showed potential to identify source of infection and might improve outcome.

Abstract
This review focuses on methods to image acute lung inflammation with Positron Emission Tomography (PET). Four approaches are discussed that differ for biologic function of the PET reporter probe, radiotracer employed, and the specific aspect of the inflammatory response that is targeted. 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) is an enzyme substrate whose uptake is used to measure the metabolic activation of inflammatory cells during acute lung injury in the noncancerous lung. H2 15O and radiolabeled plasma proteins are inert molecules with the same physical characteristics as their nonradioactive counterparts and are used to measure edema and vascular permeability. Tagged enzyme or receptor inhibitors are used to probe expression of these targets induced by inflammatory stimuli. Lastly, cell-specific tracers are being developed to differentiate the cell types that contribute to the inflammatory response. Taken together, these methods cast PET imaging as a versatile and quantitative tool to measure inflammation in vivo noninvasively during acute and ventilator-induced lung injury.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a leading cause of disability and mortality worldwide, and while no specific etiologic interventions have been shown to improve outcomes, noninvasive and invasive respiratory support strategies are life-saving interventions that allow time for lung recovery. However, the inappropriate management of these strategies, which neglects the unique features of respiratory, lung, and chest wall mechanics may result in disease progression, such as patient self-inflicted lung injury during spontaneous breathing or by ventilator-induced lung injury during invasive mechanical ventilation. ARDS characteristics are highly heterogeneous; therefore, a physiology-based approach is strongly advocated to titrate the delivery and management of respiratory support strategies to match patient characteristics and needs to limit ARDS progression. Several tools have been implemented in clinical practice to aid the clinician in identifying the ARDS sub-phenotypes based on physiological peculiarities (inspiratory effort, respiratory mechanics, and recruitability), thus allowing for the appropriate application of personalized supportive care. In this narrative review, we provide an overview of noninvasive and invasive respiratory support strategies, as well as discuss how identifying ARDS sub-phenotypes in daily practice can help clinicians to deliver personalized respiratory support and potentially improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Lung-protective ventilation (LPV) with low tidal volumes can significantly increase the survival of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) by limiting ventilator-induced lung injuries. However, one of the main concerns regarding the use of LPV is the risk of developing hypercapnia and respiratory acidosis, which may limit the clinical application of this strategy. This is the reason why different extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R) techniques and devices have been developed. They include low-flow or high-flow systems that may be performed with dedicated platforms or, alternatively, combined with continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). ECCO2R has demonstrated effectiveness in controlling PaCO2 levels, thus allowing LPV in patients with ARDS from different causes, including those affected by Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Similarly, the suitability and safety of combined ECCO2R and CRRT (ECCO2R-CRRT), which provides CO2 removal and kidney support simultaneously, have been reported in both retrospective and prospective studies. However, due to the complexity of ARDS patients and the limitations of current evidence, the actual impact of ECCO2R on patient outcome still remains to be defined. In this review, we discuss the main principles of ECCO2R and its clinical application in ARDS patients, in particular looking at clinical experiences of combined ECCO2R-CRRT treatments.

Abstract
The aim of this retrospective multicenter observational study is to test the feasibility and safety of a combined extracorporeal CO 2 removal (ECCO 2 R) plus renal replacement therapy (RRT) system to use an ultraprotective ventilator setting while maintaining (1) an effective support of renal function and (2) values of pH within the physiologic limits in a cohort of coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Among COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit of 9 participating hospitals, 27 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring invasive mechanical ventilation undergoing ECCO 2 R-plus-RRT treatment were included in the analysis. The treatment allowed to reduce V T from 6.0 ± 0.6 mL/kg at baseline to 4.8 ± 0.8, 4.6 ± 1.0, and 4.3 ± 0.3 mL/kg, driving pressure (ΔP) from 19.8 ± 2.5 cm H 2 O to 14.8 ± 3.6, 14.38 ± 4.1 and 10.2 ± 1.6 cm H 2 O after 24 hours, 48 hours, and at discontinuation of ECCO 2 R-plus-RRT (T3), respectively ( p < 0.001). PaCO 2 and pH remained stable. Plasma creatinine decreased over the study period from 3.30 ± 1.27 to 1.90 ± 1.30 and 1.27 ± 0.90 mg/dL after 24 and 48 hours of treatment, respectively ( p < 0.01). No patient-related events associated with the extracorporeal system were reported. These data show that in patients with COVID-19-induced ARDS and AKI, ECCO 2 R-plus-RRT is effective in allowing ultraprotective ventilator settings while maintaining an effective support of renal function and values of pH within physiologic limits.

Abstract
In patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), lung imaging is a fundamental tool in the study of the morphological and mechanistic features of the lungs. Chest computed tomography studies led to major advances in the understanding of ARDS physiology. They allowed the in vivo study of the syndrome's lung features in relation with its impact on respiratory physiology and physiology, but also explored the lungs' response to mechanical ventilation, be it alveolar recruitment or ventilator-induced lung injuries. Coupled with positron emission tomography, morphological findings were put in relation with ventilation, perfusion or acute lung inflammation. Lung imaging has always been central in the care of patients with ARDS, with modern point-of-care tools such as electrical impedance tomography or lung ultrasounds guiding clinical reasoning beyond macro-respiratory mechanics. Finally, artificial intelligence and machine learning now assist imaging post-processing software, which allows real-time analysis of quantitative parameters that describe the syndrome's complexity. This narrative review aims to draw a didactic and comprehensive picture of how modern imaging techniques improved our understanding of the syndrome, and have the potential to help the clinician guide ventilatory treatment and refine patient prognostication.

Abstract
In the pursuit of science, competitive ideas and debate are necessary means to attain knowledge and expose our ignorance. To quote Murray Gell-Mann (1969 Nobel Prize laureate in Physics): “Scientific orthodoxy kills truth”. In mechanical ventilation, the goal is to provide the best approach to support patients with respiratory failure until the underlying disease resolves, while minimizing iatrogenic damage. This compromise characterizes the philosophy behind the concept of “lung protective” ventilation. Unfortunately, inadequacies of the current conceptual model–that focuses exclusively on a nominal value of low tidal volume and promotes shrinking of the “baby lung” - is reflected in the high mortality rate of patients with moderate and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. These data call for exploration and investigation of competitive models evaluated thoroughly through a scientific process. Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) is one of the most studied yet controversial modes of mechanical ventilation that shows promise in experimental and clinical data. Over the last 3 decades APRV has evolved from a rescue strategy to a preemptive lung injury prevention approach with potential to stabilize the lung and restore alveolar homogeneity. However, several obstacles have so far impeded the evaluation of APRV’s clinical efficacy in large, randomized trials. For instance, there is no universally accepted standardized method of setting APRV and thus, it is not established whether its effects on clinical outcomes are due to the ventilator mode per se or the method applied. In addition, one distinctive issue that hinders proper scientific evaluation of APRV is the ubiquitous presence of myths and misconceptions repeatedly presented in the literature. In this review we discuss some of these misleading notions and present data to advance scientific discourse around the uses and misuses of APRV in the current literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vigorous spontaneous effort can potentially worsen lung injury. This study hypothesized that the prone position would diminish a maldistribution of lung stress and inflation after diaphragmatic contraction and reduce spontaneous effort, resulting in less lung injury. METHODS A severe acute respiratory distress syndrome model was established by depleting surfactant and injurious mechanical ventilation in 6 male pigs ("mechanism" protocol) and 12 male rabbits ("lung injury" protocol). In the mechanism protocol, regional inspiratory negative pleural pressure swing (intrabronchial balloon manometry) and the corresponding lung inflation (electrical impedance tomography) were measured with a combination of position (supine or prone) and positive end-expiratory pressure (high or low) matching the intensity of spontaneous effort. In the lung injury protocol, the intensities of spontaneous effort (esophageal manometry) and regional lung injury were compared in the supine position versus prone position. RESULTS The mechanism protocol (pigs) found that in the prone position, there was no ventral-to-dorsal gradient in negative pleural pressure swing after diaphragmatic contraction, irrespective of the positive end-expiratory pressure level (-10.3 ± 3.3 cm H2O vs. -11.7 ± 2.4 cm H2O at low positive end-expiratory pressure, P = 0.115; -10.4 ± 3.4 cm H2O vs. -10.8 ± 2.3 cm H2O at high positive end-expiratory pressure, P = 0.715), achieving homogeneous inflation. In the supine position, however, spontaneous effort during low positive end-expiratory pressure had the largest ventral-to-dorsal gradient in negative pleural pressure swing (-9.8 ± 2.9 cm H2O vs. -18.1 ± 4.0 cm H2O, P < 0.001), causing dorsal overdistension. Higher positive end-expiratory pressure in the supine position reduced a ventral-to-dorsal gradient in negative pleural pressure swing, but it remained (-9.9 ± 2.8 cm H2O vs. -13.3 ± 2.3 cm H2O, P < 0.001). The lung injury protocol (rabbits) found that in the prone position, spontaneous effort was milder and lung injury was less without regional difference (lung myeloperoxidase activity in ventral vs. dorsal lung, 74.0 ± 30.9 μm · min-1 · mg-1 protein vs. 61.0 ± 23.0 μm · min-1 · mg-1 protein, P = 0.951). In the supine position, stronger spontaneous effort increased dorsal lung injury (lung myeloperoxidase activity in ventral vs. dorsal lung, 67.5 ± 38.1 μm · min-1 · mg-1 protein vs. 167.7 ± 65.5 μm · min-1 · mg-1 protein, P = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Prone position, independent of positive end-expiratory pressure levels, diminishes a maldistribution of lung stress and inflation imposed by spontaneous effort and mitigates spontaneous effort, resulting in less effort-dependent lung injury.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) can be life-threatening and it is important to prevent the development of VILI. It remains unclear whether the prone position affects neutrophilic inflammation in the lung regions in vivo, which plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of VILI. This study aimed to assess the relationship between the use of the prone position and the development of VILI-associated regional neutrophilic lung inflammation. Regional neutrophilic lung inflammation and lung aeration during low tidal volume mechanical ventilation were assessed using in vivo 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F] fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography and computed tomography in acutely experimentally injured rabbit lungs (lung injury induced by lung lavage and excessive ventilation). Direct comparisons were made among three groups: control, supine, and prone positions. After approximately 7 h, tissue-normalized 18F-FDG uptake differed significantly between the supine and prone positions (SUP: 0.038 ± 0.014 vs. PP: 0.029 ± 0.008, P = 0.038), especially in the ventral region (SUP: 0.052 ± 0.013 vs. PP: 0.026 ± 0.007, P = 0.003). The use of the prone position reduced lung inhomogeneities, which was demonstrated by the correction of the disproportionate rate of voxel gas over the given lung region. The progression of neutrophilic inflammation was affected by the interaction between the total strain (for aeration) and the inhomogeneity. The prone position is effective in slowing down the progression of VILI-associated neutrophilic inflammation. Under low-tidal-volume ventilation, the main drivers of its effect may be homogenization of lung tissue and that of mechanical forces.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a lifesaving supportive intervention in the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), buying time while the primary precipitating cause is being corrected. However, MV can contribute to a worsening of the primary lung injury, known as ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI), which could have an important impact on outcome. The ARDS lung is characterized by diffuse and heterogeneous lung damage and is particularly prone to suffer the consequences of an excessive mechanical stress imposed by higher airway pressures and volumes during MV. Of major concern is cyclic overdistension, affecting those lung segments receiving a proportionally higher tidal volume in an overall reduced lung volume. Theoretically, healthier lung regions are submitted to a larger stress and cyclic deformation and thus at high risk for developing VILI. Clinicians have difficulties in detecting VILI, particularly cyclic overdistension at the bedside, since routine monitoring of gas exchange and lung mechanics are relatively insensitive to this mechanism of VILI. Expired CO2 kinetics integrates relevant pathophysiological information of high interest for monitoring. CO2 is produced by cell metabolism in large daily quantities. After diffusing to tissue capillaries, CO2 is transported first by the venous and then by pulmonary circulation to the lung. Thereafter diffusing from capillaries to lung alveoli, it is finally convectively transported by lung ventilation for its elimination to the atmosphere. Modern readily clinically available sensor technology integrates information related to pulmonary ventilation, perfusion, and gas exchange from the single analysis of expired CO2 kinetics measured at the airway opening. Current volumetric capnography (VCap), the representation of the volume of expired CO2 in one single breath, informs about pulmonary perfusion, end-expiratory lung volume, dead space, and pulmonary ventilation inhomogeneities, all intimately related to cyclic overdistension during MV. Additionally, the recently described capnodynamic method provides the possibility to continuously measure the end-expiratory lung volume and effective pulmonary blood flow. All this information is accessed non-invasively and breath-by-breath helping clinicians to personalize ventilatory settings at the bedside and minimize overdistension and cyclic deformation of lung tissue.

Abstract
Pulmonary atelectasis is common in the perioperative period. Physiologically, it is produced when collapsing forces derived from positive pleural pressure and surface tension overcome expanding forces from alveolar pressure and parenchymal tethering. Atelectasis impairs blood oxygenation and reduces lung compliance. It is increasingly recognized that it can also induce local tissue biologic responses, such as inflammation, local immune dysfunction, and damage of the alveolar-capillary barrier, with potential loss of lung fluid clearance, increased lung protein permeability, and susceptibility to infection, factors that can initiate or exaggerate lung injury. Mechanical ventilation of a heterogeneously aerated lung (e.g., in the presence of atelectatic lung tissue) involves biomechanical processes that may precipitate further lung damage: concentration of mechanical forces, propagation of gas-liquid interfaces, and remote overdistension. Knowledge of such pathophysiologic mechanisms of atelectasis and their consequences in the healthy and diseased lung should guide optimal clinical management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The physiological response and the potentially beneficial effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) for lung protection and optimization of ventilation during spontaneous breathing in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are not fully understood. The aim of the study was to compare the effect of different PEEP levels on tidal volume distribution and on the ventilation of dependent lung region during neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA). METHODS ARDS-like lung injury was induced by using saline lavage in 10 anesthetized and spontaneously breathing farm-bred pigs. The animals were ventilated in NAVA modality and tidal volume distribution as well as dependent lung ventilation were assessed using electric impedance tomography during the application of PEEP levels from 0 to 15 cmH20, in steps of 3 cmH20. Tidal volume distribution and dependent fraction of ventilation were analysed using Wilcoxon signed rank test. Furthermore, airway, esophageal and transpulmonary pressure, as well as airway flow and delivered volume, were continuously measured during the assisted spontaneous breathing. RESULTS Increasing PEEP improved oxygenation and re-distributed tidal volume. Specifically, ventilation distribution changed from a predominant non-dependent to a more even distribution between non-dependent and dependent areas of the lung. Dependent fraction of ventilation reached 47 ± 9% at PEEP 9 cmH20. Further increasing PEEP led to a predominant dependent ventilation. CONCLUSION During assisted spontaneous breathing in this model of induced ARDS, PEEP modifies the distribution of ventilation and can achieve a homogenizing effect on its spatial arrangement. The study indicates that PEEP is an important factor during assisted spontaneous breathing and that EIT can be of valuable interest when titrating PEEP level during spontaneous breathing, by indicating the most homogeneous distribution of gas volumes throughout the PEEP spectrum.

Abstract
This review focuses on the advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology of ventilator-induced and acute lung injury that have been afforded by technological development of imaging methods over the last decades. Examples of such advances include the establishment of regional lung mechanical strain as a determinant of ventilator-induced lung injury, the relationship between alveolar recruitment and overdistension, the regional vs. diffuse nature of pulmonary involvement in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the identification of the physiological determinants of the response to recruitment interventions, and the pathophysiological significance of metabolic alterations in the acutely injured lung. Taken together, these advances portray multimodality imaging as the next frontier to both advance knowledge of the pathophysiology of these conditions and to tailor treatment to the individual patient's condition.

Abstract
Background Intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) is common in critically ill patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. High positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEP) can reverse lung volume and oxygenation decline caused by IAH, but its impact on alveolar overdistension is less clear. We aimed to find a PEEP range that would be high enough to reduce atelectasis, while low enough to minimize alveolar overdistention in the presence of IAH and lung injury. Methods Five anesthetized pigs received standardized anesthesia and mechanical ventilation. Peritoneal insufflation of air was used to generate intra-abdominal pressure of 27 cmH2O. Lung injury was created by intravenous oleic acid. PEEP levels of 5, 12, 17, 22, and 27 cmH2O were applied. We performed computed tomography and measured arterial oxygen levels, respiratory mechanics, and cardiac output 5 min after each new PEEP level. The proportion of overdistended, normally aerated, poorly aerated, and non-aerated atelectatic lung tissue was calculated based on Hounsfield units. Results PEEP decreased the proportion of poorly aerated and atelectatic lung, while increasing normally aerated lung. Overdistension increased with each incremental increase in applied PEEP. “Best PEEP” (respiratory mechanics or oxygenation) was higher than the “optimal CT inflation PEEP range” (difference between lower inflection points of atelectatic and overdistended lung) in healthy and injured lungs. Conclusions Our findings in a large animal model suggest that titrating a PEEP to respiratory mechanics or oxygenation in the presence of IAH is associated with increased alveolar overdistension.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a refractory respiratory syndrome with a high prevalence in the Intensive Care Unit. Though much improvement has been achieved over the last 50 decades, the disease continues to be under-recognized and under-treated, and its mortality remains high. Since the first report, the radiologic examination has been an essential part in evaluating this disease. Chest X-ray radiography and computed tomography are conventional imaging techniques in routine clinical practice. Other image modalities, including lung ultrasound, electrical impedance tomography, positron emission tomography, have demonstrated their respective advantages over recent years but have not yet been broadly applied in clinical practice. Among these modalities, computed tomography and its quantitative analysis have shown an irreplaceable power in diagnosis, intervention evaluation and prognostic prediction. In this review, we briefly introduced the basics of acute respiratory distress syndrome and summarized imaging advances. In addition, we focused on the computed tomography modality and highlighted the value of its quantitative assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume may have a key role for the outcome of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. The variety of acute respiratory distress syndrome phenotypes implies personalization of those settings. To guide personalized positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume, physicians need to have an in-depth understanding of the physiologic effects and bedside methods to measure the extent of these effects. In the present article, a step-by-step physiologic approach to select personalized positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume at the bedside is described. DATA SOURCES: The present review is a critical reanalysis of the traditional and latest literature on the topic. STUDY SELECTION: Relevant clinical and physiologic studies on positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume setting were reviewed. DATA EXTRACTION: Reappraisal of the available physiologic and clinical data. DATA SYNTHESIS: Positive end-expiratory pressure is aimed at stabilizing alveolar recruitment, thus reducing the risk of volutrauma and atelectrauma. Bedside assessment of the potential for lung recruitment is a preliminary step to recognize patients who benefit from higher positive end-expiratory pressure level. In patients with higher potential for lung recruitment, positive end-expiratory pressure could be selected by physiology-based methods balancing recruitment and overdistension. In patients with lower potential for lung recruitment or in shock, positive end-expiratory pressure could be maintained in the 5–8 cm H2O range. Tidal volume induces alveolar recruitment and improves gas exchange. After setting personalized positive end-expiratory pressure, tidal volume could be based on lung inflation (collapsed lung size) respecting safety thresholds of static and dynamic lung stress. Positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume could be kept stable for some hours in order to allow early recognition of changes in the clinical course of acute respiratory distress syndrome but also frequently reassessed to avoid crossing of safety thresholds. CONCLUSIONS: The setting of personalized positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volume based on sound physiologic bedside measures may represent an effective strategy for treating acute respiratory distress syndrome patients.

Hedgehog interacting protein (HHIP) represses airway remodeling and metabolic reprogramming in COPD-derived airway smooth muscle cells. Sci Rep 2021; 11:9074. [PMID: 33907231 PMCID: PMC8079715 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-88434-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 04/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Although HHIP locus has been consistently associated with the susceptibility to COPD including airway remodeling and emphysema in genome-wide association studies, the molecular mechanism underlying this genetic association remains incompletely understood. By utilizing Hhip+/- mice and primary human airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs), here we aim to determine whether HHIP haploinsufficiency increases airway smooth muscle mass by reprogramming glucose metabolism, thus contributing to airway remodeling in COPD pathogenesis. The mRNA levels of HHIP were compared in normal and COPD-derived ASMCs. Mitochondrial oxygen consumption rate and lactate levels in the medium were measured in COPD-derived ASMCs with or without HHIP overexpression as readouts of glucose oxidative phosphorylation and aerobic glycolysis rates. The proliferation rate was measured in healthy and COPD-derived ASMCs treated with or without 2-DG. Smooth muscle mass around airways was measured by immunofluorescence staining for α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in lung sections from Hhip+/- mice and their wild type littermates, Hhip+/+ mice. Airway remodeling was assessed in Hhip+/- and Hhip+/- mice exposed to 6 months of cigarette smoke. Our results show HHIP inhibited aerobic glycolysis and represses cell proliferation in COPD-derived ASMCs. Notably, knockdown of HHIP in normal ASMCs increased PKM2 activity. Importantly, Hhip+/- mice demonstrated increased airway remodeling and increased intensity of α-SMA staining around airways compared to Hhip+/+ mice. In conclusion, our findings suggest that HHIP represses aerobic glycolysis and ASMCs hyperplasia, which may contribute to the increased airway remodeling in Hhip+/- mice.

Atelectasis, Shunt, and Worsening Oxygenation Following Reduction of Respiratory Rate in Healthy Pigs Undergoing ECMO: An Experimental Lung Imaging Study. Front Physiol 2021; 12:663313. [PMID: 33897471 PMCID: PMC8063114 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2021.663313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Reducing the respiratory rate during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) decreases the mechanical power, but it might induce alveolar de-recruitment. Dissecting de-recruitment due to lung edema vs. the fraction due to hypoventilation may be challenging in injured lungs. Objectives: We characterized changes in lung physiology (primary endpoint: development of atelectasis) associated with progressive reduction of the respiratory rate in healthy animals on ECMO. Methods: Six female pigs underwent general anesthesia and volume control ventilation (Baseline: PEEP 5 cmH2O, Vt 10 ml/kg, I:E = 1:2, FiO2 0.5, rate 24 bpm). Veno-venous ECMO was started and respiratory rate was progressively reduced to 18, 12, and 6 breaths per minute (6-h steps), while all other settings remained unchanged. ECMO blood flow was kept constant while gas flow was increased to maintain stable PaCO2. Measurements and Main Results: At Baseline (without ECMO) and toward the end of each step, data from quantitative CT scan, electrical impedance tomography, and gas exchange were collected. Increasing ECMO gas flow while lowering the respiratory rate was associated with an increase in the fraction of non-aerated tissue (i.e., atelectasis) and with a decrease of tidal ventilation reaching the gravitationally dependent lung regions (p = 0.009 and p = 0.018). Intrapulmonary shunt increased (p < 0.001) and arterial PaO2 decreased (p < 0.001) at lower rates. The fraction of non-aerated lung was correlated with longer expiratory time spent at zero flow (r = 0.555, p = 0.011). Conclusions: Progressive decrease of respiratory rate coupled with increasing CO2 removal in mechanically ventilated healthy pigs is associated with development of lung atelectasis, higher shunt, and poorer oxygenation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a core intensive care unit (ICU) therapy. Significant inter- and intra- patient variability in lung mechanics and condition makes managing MV difficult. Accurate prediction of patient-specific response to changes in MV settings would enable optimised, personalised, and more productive care, improving outcomes and reducing cost. This study develops a generalised digital clone model, or in-silico virtual patient, to accurately predict lung mechanics in response to changes in MV. METHODS An identifiable, nonlinear hysteresis loop model (HLM) captures patient-specific lung dynamics identified from measured ventilator data. Identification and creation of the virtual patient model is fully automated using the hysteresis loop analysis (HLA) method to identify lung elastances from clinical data. Performance is evaluated using clinical data from 18 volume-control (VC) and 14 pressure-control (PC) ventilated patients who underwent step-wise recruitment maneuvers. RESULTS Patient-specific virtual patient models accurately predict lung response for changes in PEEP up to 12 cmH2O for both volume and pressure control cohorts. R2 values for predicting peak inspiration pressure (PIP) and additional retained lung volume, Vfrc in VC, are R2=0.86 and R2=0.90 for 106 predictions over 18 patients. For 14 PC patients and 84 predictions, predicting peak inspiratory volume (PIV) and Vfrc yield R2=0.86 and R2=0.83. Absolute PIP, PIV and Vfrc errors are relatively small. CONCLUSIONS Overall results validate the accuracy and versatility of the virtual patient model for capturing and predicting nonlinear changes in patient-specific lung mechanics. Accurate response prediction enables mechanically and physiologically relevant virtual patients to guide personalised and optimised MV therapy.

Abstract
RATIONALE Cyclic strain may be a determinant of ventilator-induced lung injury. The standard for strain assessment is the computed tomography (CT), which does not allow continuous monitoring and exposes to radiation. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is able to monitor changes in regional lung ventilation. In addition, there is a correlation between mechanical deformation of materials and detectable changes in its electrical impedance, making EIT a potential surrogate for cyclic lung strain measured by CT (StrainCT ). OBJECTIVES To compare the global StrainCT with the change in electrical impedance (ΔZ). METHODS Acute respiratory distress syndrome patients under mechanical ventilation (VT 6 mL/kg ideal body weight with positive end-expiratory pressure 5 [PEEP 5] and best PEEP according to EIT) underwent whole-lung CT at end-inspiration and end-expiration. Biomechanical analysis was used to construct 3D maps and determine StrainCT at different levels of PEEP. CT and EIT acquisitions were performed simultaneously. Multilevel analysis was employed to determine the causal association between StrainCT and ΔZ. Linear regression models were used to predict the change in lung StrainCT between different PEEP levels based on the change in ΔZ. MAIN RESULTS StrainCT was positively and independently associated with ΔZ at global level (P < .01). Furthermore, the change in StrainCT (between PEEP 5 and Best PEEP) was accurately predicted by the change in ΔZ (R2 0.855, P < .001 at global level) with a high agreement between predicted and measured StrainCT . CONCLUSIONS The change in electrical impedance may provide a noninvasive assessment of global cyclic strain, without radiation at bedside.

Inflammatory Activity in Atelectatic and Normally Aerated Regions During Early Acute Lung Injury. Acad Radiol 2020; 27:1679-1690. [PMID: 32173290 DOI: 10.1016/j.acra.2019.12.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2019] [Revised: 12/07/2019] [Accepted: 12/14/2019] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Pulmonary atelectasis presumably promotes and facilitates lung injury. However, data are limited on its direct and remote relation to inflammation. We aimed to assess regional 2-deoxy-2-[18F]-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) kinetics representative of inflammation in atelectatic and normally aerated regions in models of early lung injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied supine sheep in four groups: Permissive Atelectasis (n = 6)-16 hours protective tidal volume (VT) and zero positive end-expiratory pressure; Mild (n = 5) and Moderate Endotoxemia (n = 6)- 20-24 hours protective ventilation and intravenous lipopolysaccharide (Mild = 2.5 and Moderate = 10.0 ng/kg/min), and Surfactant Depletion (n = 6)-saline lung lavage and 4 hours high VT. Measurements performed immediately after anesthesia induction served as controls (n = 8). Atelectasis was defined as regions of gas fraction <0.1 in transmission or computed tomography scans. 18F-FDG kinetics measured with positron emission tomography were analyzed with a three-compartment model. RESULTS 18F-FDG net uptake rate in atelectatic tissue was larger during Moderate Endotoxemia (0.0092 ± 0.0019/min) than controls (0.0051 ± 0.0014/min, p = 0.01). 18F-FDG phosphorylation rate in atelectatic tissue was larger in both endotoxemia groups (0.0287 ± 0.0075/min) than controls (0.0198 ± 0.0039/min, p = 0.05) while the 18F-FDG volume of distribution was not significantly different among groups. Additionally, normally aerated regions showed larger 18F-FDG uptake during Permissive Atelectasis (0.0031 ± 0.0005/min, p < 0.01), Mild (0.0028 ± 0.0006/min, p = 0.04), and Moderate Endotoxemia (0.0039 ± 0.0005/min, p < 0.01) than controls (0.0020 ± 0.0003/min). CONCLUSION Atelectatic regions present increased metabolic activation during moderate endotoxemia mostly due to increased 18F-FDG phosphorylation, indicative of increased cellular metabolic activation. Increased 18F-FDG uptake in normally aerated regions during permissive atelectasis suggests an injurious remote effect of atelectasis even with protective tidal volumes.

Abstract
Low-tidal-volume ventilation decreases mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. This study investigated the effects of ultralow tidal ventilation under veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) support in pigs with ARDS. Eight pigs were intubated and inoculated with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus through bronchoscopy. Ultralow tidal ventilation (3 mL/kg) under extracorporeal membrane oxygenator (ECMO) support was applied to one group and high tidal ventilation (15 mL/kg) was applied to another group to maintain comparable oxygenation for 12 h without ECMO support. Each group had similar arterial blood gas values and hemodynamic variables at baseline and during the experiment. The high-tidal-volume ventilation group showed a gradual decline in arterial oxygen levels, and repeated ANOVA showed significant differences in oxygenation change over time in the ultralow tidal ventilation group. Inflammatory cytokine levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and lung ultrasound scores were similar between two groups. Histologic analysis showed that both groups developed pneumonia after 12 h; however, the ultralow tidal ventilation group had a lower lung injury score assessed by the pathologist. We developed the first ultralow-tidal-volume ventilation porcine model under veno-venous ECMO support. The ultralow-tidal-volume ventilation strategy can mitigate mechanical ventilator-associated lung injury.

Abstract
Protective ventilation strategies for the injured lung currently revolve around the use of low Vt, ostensibly to avoid volutrauma, together with positive end-expiratory pressure to increase the fraction of open lung and reduce atelectrauma. Protective ventilation is currently applied in a one-size-fits-all manner, and although this practical approach has reduced acute respiratory distress syndrome deaths, mortality is still high and improvements are at a standstill. Furthermore, how to minimize ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) for any given lung remains controversial and poorly understood. Here we present a hypothesis of VILI pathogenesis that potentially serves as a basis upon which minimally injurious ventilation strategies might be developed. This hypothesis is based on evidence demonstrating that VILI begins in isolated lung regions manifesting a Permeability-Originated Obstruction Response (POOR) in which alveolar leak leads to surfactant dysfunction and increases local tissue stresses. VILI progresses topographically outward from these regions in a POOR-get-POORer fashion unless steps are taken to interrupt it. We propose that interrupting the POOR-get-POORer progression of lung injury relies on two principles: 1) open the lung to minimize the presence of heterogeneity-induced stress concentrators that are focused around the regions of atelectasis, and 2) ventilate in a patient-dependent manner that minimizes the number of lung units that close during each expiration so that they are not forced to rerecruit during the subsequent inspiration. These principles appear to be borne out in both patient and animal studies in which expiration is terminated before derecruitment of lung units has enough time to occur.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary atelectasis is frequent in clinical settings. Yet there is limited mechanistic understanding and substantial clinical and biologic controversy on its consequences. The authors hypothesize that atelectasis produces local transcriptomic changes related to immunity and alveolar-capillary barrier function conducive to lung injury and further exacerbated by systemic inflammation. METHODS Female sheep underwent unilateral lung atelectasis using a left bronchial blocker and thoracotomy while the right lung was ventilated, with (n = 6) or without (n = 6) systemic lipopolysaccharide infusion. Computed tomography guided samples were harvested for NextGen RNA sequencing from atelectatic and aerated lung regions. The Wald test was used to detect differential gene expression as an absolute fold change greater than 1.5 and adjusted P value (Benjamini-Hochberg) less than 0.05. Functional analysis was performed by gene set enrichment analysis. RESULTS Lipopolysaccharide-unexposed atelectatic versus aerated regions presented 2,363 differentially expressed genes. Lipopolysaccharide exposure induced 3,767 differentially expressed genes in atelectatic lungs but only 1,197 genes in aerated lungs relative to the corresponding lipopolysaccharide-unexposed tissues. Gene set enrichment for immune response in atelectasis versus aerated tissues yielded negative normalized enrichment scores without lipopolysaccharide (less than -1.23, adjusted P value less than 0.05) but positive scores with lipopolysaccharide (greater than 1.33, adjusted P value less than 0.05). Leukocyte-related processes (e.g., leukocyte migration, activation, and mediated immunity) were enhanced in lipopolysaccharide-exposed atelectasis partly through interferon-stimulated genes. Furthermore, atelectasis was associated with negatively enriched gene sets involving alveolar-capillary barrier function irrespective of lipopolysaccharide (normalized enrichment scores less than -1.35, adjusted P value less than 0.05). Yes-associated protein signaling was dysregulated with lower nuclear distribution in atelectatic versus aerated lung (lipopolysaccharide-unexposed: 10.0 ± 4.2 versus 13.4 ± 4.2 arbitrary units, lipopolysaccharide-exposed: 8.1 ± 2.0 versus 11.3 ± 2.4 arbitrary units, effect of lung aeration, P = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Atelectasis dysregulates the local pulmonary transcriptome with negatively enriched immune response and alveolar-capillary barrier function. Systemic lipopolysaccharide converts the transcriptomic immune response into positive enrichment but does not affect local barrier function transcriptomics. Interferon-stimulated genes and Yes-associated protein might be novel candidate targets for atelectasis-associated injury. EDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE

Abstract
Increased pulmonary lactate production is correlated with severity of lung injury and outcome in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. This study was conducted to investigate the relative contributions of inflammation and hypoxia to the lung's metabolic shift to glycolysis in an experimental animal model of ARDS using hyperpolarized (HP) 13 C MRI. Fifty-three intubated and mechanically ventilated male rats were imaged using HP 13 C MRI before, and 1, 2.5 and 4 hours after saline (sham) or hydrochloric acid (HCl; 0.5 ml/kg) instillation in the trachea, followed by protective and nonprotective mechanical ventilation (HCl-PEEP and HCl-ZEEP) or the start of moderate or severe hypoxia (Hyp90 and Hyp75 groups). Pulmonary and cardiac HP lactate-to-pyruvate ratios were compared among groups for different time points. Postmortem histology and immunofluorescence were used to assess lung injury severity and quantify the expression of innate inflammatory markers and local tissue hypoxia. HP pulmonary lactate-to-pyruvate ratio progressively increased in rats with lung injury and moderate hypoxia (HCl-ZEEP), with no significant change in pulmonary lactate-to-pyruvate ratio in noninjured but moderately hypoxic rats (Hyp90). Pulmonary lactate-to-pyruvate ratio was elevated in otherwise healthy lung tissue only in severe systemic hypoxia (Hyp75 group). ex vivo histological and immunopathological assessment further confirmed the link between elevated glycolysis and the recruitment into and presence of activated neutrophils in injured lungs. HP lactate-to-pyruvate ratio is elevated in injured lungs predominantly as a result of increased glycolysis in activated inflammatory cells, but can also increase due to severe inflammation-induced hypoxia.

Abstract
Background In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), lung recruitment maneuvers can recruit collapsed alveoli in gravity-dependent lung regions, improving the homogeneity of ventilation distribution. This study used electrical impedance tomography to investigate the physiological effects of different recruitment maneuvers for alveolar recruitment in a pig model of ARDS. Methods ARDS was induced in ten healthy male pigs with repeated bronchoalveolar lavage until the ratio of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) of fraction of inspired oxygen (P/F) was < 100 mmHg and remained stable for 30 min (TARDS). ARDS pigs underwent three sequential recruitment maneuvers, including sustained inflation, increments of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) applied in random order, with 30 mins at a PEEP of 5 cmH2O between maneuvers. Respiratory mechanics, hemodynamics, arterial blood gas, and electrical impedance tomography were recorded at baseline, TARDS, and before and after each recruitment maneuver. Results In all ten pigs, ARDS was successfully induced with a mean 2.8 ± 1.03 L bronchoalveolar lavages. PaO2, P/F, and compliance were significantly improved after recruitment with sustained inflation, increments of PEEP or PCV (all p < 0.05), and there were no significant differences between maneuvers. Global inhomogeneity index significantly decreased after recruitment with sustained inflation, increments of PEEP, or PCV. There were no significant differences in global inhomogeneity before or after recruitment with the different maneuvers. The decrease in global inhomogeneity index (ΔGI) was significantly greater after recruitment with increments of PEEP compared to sustained inflation (p = 0.023), but there was no significant difference in ΔGI between increments of PEEP and PCV or between sustained inflation and PCV. Conclusion Sustained inflation, increments of PEEP, and PCV increased oxygenation, and regional and global compliance of the respiratory system, and decreased inhomogeneous gas distribution in ARDS pigs. Increments of PEEP significantly improved inhomogeneity of the lung compared to sustained inflation, while there was no difference between increments of PEEP and PCV or between sustained inflation and PCV.

Abstract
Pulmonary inflammation is a hallmark of several pulmonary disorders including acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Moreover, it has been shown that patients with hyperinflammatory phenotype have a significantly higher mortality rate. Despite this, current therapeutic approaches focus on managing the injury rather than subsiding the inflammatory burden of the lung. This is because of the lack of appropriate non-invasive biomarkers that can be used clinically to assess pulmonary inflammation. In this review, we discuss two metabolic imaging tools that can be used to non-invasively assess lung inflammation. The first method, Positron Emission Tomography (PET), is widely used in clinical oncology and quantifies flux in metabolic pathways by measuring uptake of a radiolabeled molecule into the cells. The second method, hyperpolarized 13C MRI, is an emerging tool that interrogates the branching points of the metabolic pathways to quantify the fate of metabolites. We discuss the differences and similarities between these techniques and discuss their clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether respiratory physiology of COVID-19-induced respiratory failure is different from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) of other etiologies is unclear. We conducted a single-center study to describe respiratory mechanics and response to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in COVID-19 ARDS and to compare COVID-19 patients to matched-control subjects with ARDS from other causes. METHODS Thirty consecutive COVID-19 patients admitted to an intensive care unit in Rome, Italy, and fulfilling moderate-to-severe ARDS criteria were enrolled within 24 h from endotracheal intubation. Gas exchange, respiratory mechanics, and ventilatory ratio were measured at PEEP of 15 and 5 cmH2O. A single-breath derecruitment maneuver was performed to assess recruitability. After 1:1 matching based on PaO2/FiO2, FiO2, PEEP, and tidal volume, COVID-19 patients were compared to subjects affected by ARDS of other etiologies who underwent the same procedures in a previous study. RESULTS Thirty COVID-19 patients were successfully matched with 30 ARDS from other etiologies. At low PEEP, median [25th-75th percentiles] PaO2/FiO2 in the two groups was 119 mmHg [101-142] and 116 mmHg [87-154]. Average compliance (41 ml/cmH2O [32-52] vs. 36 ml/cmH2O [27-42], p = 0.045) and ventilatory ratio (2.1 [1.7-2.3] vs. 1.6 [1.4-2.1], p = 0.032) were slightly higher in COVID-19 patients. Inter-individual variability (ratio of standard deviation to mean) of compliance was 36% in COVID-19 patients and 31% in other ARDS. In COVID-19 patients, PaO2/FiO2 was linearly correlated with respiratory system compliance (r = 0.52 p = 0.003). High PEEP improved PaO2/FiO2 in both cohorts, but more remarkably in COVID-19 patients (p = 0.005). Recruitability was not different between cohorts (p = 0.39) and was highly inter-individually variable (72% in COVID-19 patients and 64% in ARDS from other causes). In COVID-19 patients, recruitability was independent from oxygenation and respiratory mechanics changes due to PEEP. CONCLUSIONS Early after establishment of mechanical ventilation, COVID-19 patients follow ARDS physiology, with compliance reduction related to the degree of hypoxemia, and inter-individually variable respiratory mechanics and recruitability. Physiological differences between ARDS from COVID-19 and other causes appear small.

Abstract
Intravital microscopy (IVM) offers unique possibilities for the observation of biological processes and disease related mechanisms in vivo. Especially for anatomically complex and dynamic organs such as the lung and its main functional unit, the alveolus, IVM provides exclusive advantages in terms of spatial and temporal resolution. By the use of lung windows, which have advanced and improved over time, direct access to the lung surface is provided. In this review we will discuss two main topics, namely alveolar dynamics and perfusion from the perspective of IVM-based studies. Of special interest are unanswered questions regarding alveolar dynamics such as: What are physiologic alveolar dynamics? How do these dynamics change under pathologic conditions and how do those changes contribute to ventilator-induced lung injury? How can alveolar dynamics be targeted in a beneficial way? With respect to alveolar perfusion IVM has propelled our understanding of the pulmonary microcirculation and its perfusion, as well as pulmonary vasoreactivity, permeability and immunological aspects. Whereas the general mechanism behind these processes are understood, we still lack a proper understanding of the complex, multidimensional interplay between alveolar ventilation and microvascular perfusion, capillary recruitment, or vascular immune responses under physiologic and pathologic conditions. These are only part of the unanswered questions and problems, which we still have to overcome. IVM as the tool of choice might allow us to answer part of these questions within the next years or decades. As every method, IVM has advantages as well as limitations, which have to be taken into account for data analysis and interpretation, which will be addressed in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study hypothesized that, in experimental mild acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung damage caused by high tidal volume (VT) could be attenuated if VT increased slowly enough to progressively reduce mechanical heterogeneity and to allow the epithelial and endothelial cells, as well as the extracellular matrix of the lung to adapt. For this purpose, different strategies of approaching maximal VT were tested. METHODS Sixty-four Wistar rats received Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide intratracheally. After 24 h, animals were randomly assigned to receive mechanical ventilation with VT = 6 ml/kg for 2 h (control); VT = 6 ml/kg during hour 1 followed by an abrupt increase to VT = 22 ml/kg during hour 2 (no adaptation time); VT = 6 ml/kg during the first 30 min followed by a gradual VT increase up to 22 ml/kg for 30 min, then constant VT = 22 ml/kg during hour 2 (shorter adaptation time); and a more gradual VT increase, from 6 to 22 ml/kg during hour 1 followed by VT = 22 ml/kg during hour 2 (longer adaptation time). All animals were ventilated with positive end-expiratory pressure of 3 cm H2O. Nonventilated animals were used for molecular biology analysis. RESULTS At 2 h, diffuse alveolar damage score and heterogeneity index were greater in the longer adaptation time group than in the control and shorter adaptation time animals. Gene expression of interleukin-6 favored the shorter (median [interquartile range], 12.4 [9.1-17.8]) adaptation time compared with longer (76.7 [20.8 to 95.4]; P = 0.02) and no adaptation (65.5 [18.1 to 129.4]) time (P = 0.02) strategies. Amphiregulin, metalloproteinase-9, club cell secretory protein-16, and syndecan showed similar behavior. CONCLUSIONS In experimental mild acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung damage in the shorter adaptation time group compared with the no adaptation time group was attenuated in a time-dependent fashion by preemptive adaptation of the alveolar epithelial cells and extracellular matrix. Extending the adaptation period increased cumulative power and did not prevent lung damage, because it may have exposed animals to injurious strain earlier and for a longer time, thereby negating any adaptive benefit.

CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2020; 24:82. [PMID: 32143664 PMCID: PMC7060646 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-020-2809-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2019] [Accepted: 02/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
Background Postextubation high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is used as a support therapy in high-risk patients in ICU. This study aimed to determine the effects of HFNC therapy on lung recruitment and overdistension assessed by electrical impedance tomography (EIT). Methods Twenty-four patients who received HFNC within 24 h after extubation were prospectively enrolled in this study. EIT was used to monitor regional lung ventilation distributions at baseline (conventional oxygen therapy) and three flow rate levels of HFNC therapy (20, 40, and 60 L/min). Change of end-expiratory lung impedance (ΔEELI), regional recruitment (recruited-pixels) and overdistension (overdistended-pixels), and lung strain change were determined by EIT. EIT images were equally divided into four ventral-to-dorsal horizontal regions of interest (ROIs 1, 2, 3, and 4). “Overdistension-by HFNC” due to HFNC is defined as an increase of overdistened-pixels > 10 than baseline. Patients were divided into two groups: (1) high potential of recruitment (HPR), recruited-pixels > 10 pixels at 60 L/min than baseline, and (2) low potential of recruitment (LPR), recruited-pixels < 10 pixels at 60 L/min than baseline. Results When the flow rate gradually increased from baseline to 60 L/min, a significant and consistent increasing trend of global ΔEELI (%) (p < 0.0001), recruited-pixels (p < 0.001), and overdistended-pixels (p = 0.101) was observed. Moreover, the increase of ΔEELI was mainly distributed in ROI2 (p = 0.001) and ROI3 (p < 0.0001). The HPR group (13/24 patients) had significantly higher recruited-pixels than the LPR group (11/24 patients) at 20, 40, and 60 L/min. There were no significant differences in PaO2/FiO2, ΔEELI (%), and overdistention pixels between the two groups. The HPR group had 13 patients in which no one had “overdistension-by HFNC”, and the LPR group had 11 patients in which 4 patients had “overdistension-by HFNC” (0/13 vs. 4/11, p = 0.017). Conclusions Using EIT could identify diverse effects of HFNC on lung regional ventilation in postextubation situations. Further study is required to validate using “HFNC effect” based on lung recruitment and overdistension by EIT in clinical practice. Trial registration The study was retrospectively registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov (no. NCT04245241).

Abstract
Low-tidal volume (Vt) ventilation might protect healthy lungs from volutrauma but lead to inflammation resulting from other mechanisms, namely alveolar derecruitment and the ensuing alveolar collapse and tidal reexpansion. We hypothesized that the different mechanisms of low- and high-volume injury would be reflected in different mechanical properties being associated with development of pulmonary inflammation and mortality: an increase of hysteresis, reflecting progressive alveolar derecruitment, at low Vt; an increase of elastance, as a result of overdistension, at higher Vt. Mice were allocated to "protective" (6 ml/kg) or "injurious" (15-20 ml/kg) Vt groups and ventilated for 16 hours or until death. We measured elastance and hysteresis; pulmonary IL-6, IL-1β, and MIP-2 (macrophage inflammatory protein 2); wet-to-dry ratio; and blood gases. Survival was greater in the protective group (60%) than in the injurious group (25%). Nonsurvivors showed increased pulmonary cytokines, particularly in the injurious group, with the increase of elastance reflecting IL-6 concentration. Survivors instead showed only modest increases of cytokines, independent of Vt and unrelated to the increase of elastance. No single lung strain threshold could discriminate survivors from nonsurvivors. Hysteresis increased faster in the protective group, but, contrary to our hypothesis, its change was inversely related to the concentration of cytokines. In this model, significant mortality associated with pulmonary inflammation occurred even for strain values as low as about 0.8. Low Vt improved survival. The accompanying increase of hysteresis was not associated with greater inflammation.

Abstract
Chest imaging in patients with acute respiratory failure plays an important role in diagnosing, monitoring and assessing the underlying disease. The available modalities range from plain chest X-ray to computed tomography, lung ultrasound, electrical impedance tomography and positron emission tomography. Surprisingly, there are presently no clear-cut recommendations for critical care physicians regarding indications for and limitations of these different techniques.The purpose of the present European Respiratory Society (ERS) statement is to provide physicians with a comprehensive clinical review of chest imaging techniques for the assessment of patients with acute respiratory failure, based on the scientific evidence as identified by systematic searches. For each of these imaging techniques, the panel evaluated the following items: possible indications, technical aspects, qualitative and quantitative analysis of lung morphology and the potential interplay with mechanical ventilation. A systematic search of the literature was performed from inception to September 2018. A first search provided 1833 references. After evaluating the full text and discussion among the committee, 135 references were used to prepare the current statement.These chest imaging techniques allow a better assessment and understanding of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of patients with acute respiratory failure, but have different indications and can provide additional information to each other.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE It is known that ventilator-induced lung injury causes increased pulmonary inflammation. It has been suggested that one of the underlying mechanisms may be strain. The aim of this study was to investigate whether lung regional strain correlates with regional inflammation in a porcine model of acute respiratory distress syndrome. DESIGN Retrospective analysis of CT images and positron emission tomography images using [F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose. SETTING University animal research laboratory. SUBJECTS Seven piglets subjected to experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome and five ventilated controls. INTERVENTIONS Acute respiratory distress syndrome was induced by repeated lung lavages, followed by 210 minutes of injurious mechanical ventilation using low positive end-expiratory pressures (mean, 4 cm H2O) and high inspiratory pressures (mean plateau pressure, 45 cm H2O). All animals were subsequently studied with CT scans acquired at end-expiration and end-inspiration, to obtain maps of volumetric strain (inspiratory volume - expiratory volume)/expiratory volume, and dynamic positron emission tomography imaging. Strain maps and positron emission tomography images were divided into 10 isogravitational horizontal regions-of-interest, from which spatial correlation was calculated for each animal. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The acute respiratory distress syndrome model resulted in a decrease in respiratory system compliance (20.3 ± 3.4 to 14.0 ± 4.9 mL/cm H2O; p < 0.05) and oxygenation (PaO2/FIO2, 489 ± 80 to 92 ± 59; p < 0.05), whereas the control animals did not exhibit changes. In the acute respiratory distress syndrome group, strain maps showed a heterogeneous distribution with a greater concentration in the intermediate gravitational regions, which was similar to the distribution of [F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake observed in the positron emission tomography images, resulting in a positive spatial correlation between both variables (median R = 0.71 [0.02-0.84]; p < 0.05 in five of seven animals), which was not observed in the control animals. CONCLUSION In this porcine acute respiratory distress syndrome model, regional lung strain was spatially correlated with regional inflammation, supporting that strain is a relevant and prominent determinant of ventilator-induced lung injury.
