J Magn Reson Imaging 2024. [PMID: 38935670 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.29497] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung compliance, a biomarker of pulmonary fibrosis, is generally measured globally. Hyperpolarized 129Xe gas MRI offers the potential to evaluate lung compliance regionally, allowing for visualization of changes in lung compliance associated with fibrosis. PURPOSE To assess global and regional lung compliance in a rat model of pulmonary fibrosis using hyperpolarized 129Xe gas MRI. STUDY TYPE Prospective. ANIMAL MODEL Twenty Sprague-Dawley male rats with bleomycin-induced fibrosis model (N = 10) and saline-treated controls (N = 10). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 7-T, fast low-angle shot (FLASH) sequence. ASSESSMENT Lung compliance was determined by fitting lung volumes derived from segmented 129Xe MRI with an iterative selection method, to corresponding airway pressures. Similarly, lung compliance was obtained with computed tomography for cross-validation. Direction-dependencies of lung compliance were characterized by regional lung compliance ratios (R) in different directions. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and histological analysis were used to validate the pulmonary fibrosis model and assess its correlation with 129Xe lung compliance. STATISTICAL TESTS Shapiro-Wilk tests, unpaired and paired t-tests, Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and Pearson correlation coefficients. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS For the entire lung, the global and regional lung compliance measured with 129Xe gas MRI showed significant differences between the groups, and correlated with the global lung compliance measured using PFTs (global: r = 0.891; regional: r = 0.873). Additionally, for the control group, significant difference was found in mean regional compliance between areas, eg, 0.37 (0.32, 0.39) × 10-4 mL/cm H2O and 0.47 (0.41, 0.56) × 10-4 mL/cm H2O for apical and basal lung, respectively. The apical-basal direction R was 1.12 ± 0.09 and 1.35 ± 0.13 for fibrosis and control groups, respectively, indicating a significant difference. DATA CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of using hyperpolarized gas MRI to assess regional lung compliance. EVIDENCE LEVEL 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 1.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review explores lung recruitment monitoring, covering techniques, challenges, and future perspectives. RECENT FINDINGS Various methodologies, including respiratory system mechanics evaluation, arterial bold gases (ABGs) analysis, lung imaging, and esophageal pressure (Pes) measurement are employed to assess lung recruitment. In support to ABGs analysis, the assessment of respiratory mechanics with hysteresis and recruitment-to-inflation ratio has the potential to evaluate lung recruitment and enhance mechanical ventilation setting. Lung imaging tools, such as computed tomography scanning, lung ultrasound, and electrical impedance tomography (EIT) confirm their utility in following lung recruitment with the advantage of radiation-free and repeatable application at the bedside for sonography and EIT. Pes enables the assessment of dorsal lung tendency to collapse through end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure. Despite their value, these methodologies may require an elevated expertise in their application and data interpretation. However, the information obtained by these methods may be conveyed to build machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms aimed at improving the clinical decision-making process. SUMMARY Monitoring lung recruitment is a crucial component of managing patients with severe lung conditions, within the framework of a personalized ventilatory strategy. Although challenges persist, emerging technologies offer promise for a personalized approach to care in the future.

Abstract
The use of transpulmonary pressure monitoring based on measurement of esophageal pressure has contributed importantly to the personalization of mechanical ventilation based on respiratory pathophysiology in critically ill patients. However, esophageal pressure monitoring is still underused in the clinical practice. This technique allows partitioning of the respiratory mechanics between the lungs and the chest wall, provides information on lung recruitment and risk of barotrauma, and helps titrating mechanical ventilation settings in patients with respiratory failure. In assisted ventilation modes and during non-invasive respiratory support, esophageal pressure monitoring provides important information on the inspiratory effort and work of breathing. Nonetheless, several controversies persist on technical aspects, interpretation and clinical decision-making based on values derived from this monitoring technique. The aim of this review is to summarize the physiological bases of esophageal pressure monitoring, discussing the pros and cons of its clinical applications and different interpretations in critically ill patients undergoing invasive and non-invasive respiratory support.

Abstract
Advanced respiratory monitoring encompasses a diverse range of mini- or noninvasive tools used to evaluate various aspects of respiratory function in patients experiencing acute respiratory failure, including those requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. Among these techniques, key modalities include esophageal pressure measurement (including derived pressures), lung and respiratory muscle ultrasounds, electrical impedance tomography, the monitoring of diaphragm electrical activity, and assessment of flow index. These tools play a critical role in assessing essential parameters such as lung recruitment and overdistention, lung aeration and morphology, ventilation/perfusion distribution, inspiratory effort, respiratory drive, respiratory muscle contraction, and patient-ventilator synchrony. In contrast to conventional methods, advanced respiratory monitoring offers a deeper understanding of pathological changes in lung aeration caused by underlying diseases. Moreover, it allows for meticulous tracking of responses to therapeutic interventions, aiding in the development of personalized respiratory support strategies aimed at preserving lung function and respiratory muscle integrity. The integration of advanced respiratory monitoring represents a significant advancement in the clinical management of acute respiratory failure. It serves as a cornerstone in scenarios where treatment strategies rely on tailored approaches, empowering clinicians to make informed decisions about intervention selection and adjustment. By enabling real-time assessment and modification of respiratory support, advanced monitoring not only optimizes care for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome but also contributes to improved outcomes and enhanced patient safety.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data concerning the depth of neuromuscular blockade (NMB) required for effective relaxation of the respiratory muscles in ARDS are scarce. We hypothesised that complete versus partial NMB can modify respiratory mechanics. METHOD Prospective study to compare the respiratory mechanics of ARDS patients according to the NMB depth. Each patient was analysed at two times: deep NMB (facial train of four count (TOFC) = 0) and intermediate NMB (TOFC >0). The primary endpoint was the comparison of chest wall elastance (ELCW) according to the NMB level. RESULTS 33 ARDS patients were analysed. There was no statistical difference between the ELCW at TOFC = 0 compared to TOFC >0: 7 cmH2O/l [5.7-9.5] versus 7 cmH2O/l [5.3-10.8] (p = 0.36). The depth of NMB did not modify the expiratory nor inspiratory oesophageal pressure (Pesexp = 8 cmH2O [5-9.5] at TOFC = 0 versus 7 cmH2O [5-10] at TOFC >0; (p = 0.16) and Pesinsp = 10 cmH2O [8.2-13] at TOFC = 0 versus 10 cmH2O [8-13] at TOFC >0; (p = 0.12)). CONCLUSION In ARDS, the relaxation of the respiratory muscles seems to be independent of the NMB level.

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
BACKGROUND Prone positioning (PP) homogenizes ventilation distribution and may limit ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The static and dynamic components of ventilation that may cause VILI have been aggregated in mechanical power, considered a unifying driver of VILI. PP may affect mechanical power components differently due to changes in respiratory mechanics; however, the effects of PP on lung mechanical power components are unclear. This study aimed to compare the following parameters during supine positioning (SP) and PP: lung total elastic power and its components (elastic static power and elastic dynamic power) and these variables normalized to end-expiratory lung volume (EELV). METHODS This prospective physiologic study included 55 patients with moderate to severe ARDS. Lung total elastic power and its static and dynamic components were compared during SP and PP using an esophageal pressure-guided ventilation strategy. In SP, the esophageal pressure-guided ventilation strategy was further compared with an oxygenation-guided ventilation strategy defined as baseline SP. The primary endpoint was the effect of PP on lung total elastic power non-normalized and normalized to EELV. Secondary endpoints were the effects of PP and ventilation strategies on lung elastic static and dynamic power components non-normalized and normalized to EELV, respiratory mechanics, gas exchange, and hemodynamic parameters. RESULTS Lung total elastic power (median [interquartile range]) was lower during PP compared with SP (6.7 [4.9-10.6] versus 11.0 [6.6-14.8] J/min; P < 0.001) non-normalized and normalized to EELV (3.2 [2.1-5.0] versus 5.3 [3.3-7.5] J/min/L; P < 0.001). Comparing PP with SP, transpulmonary pressures and EELV did not significantly differ despite lower positive end-expiratory pressure and plateau airway pressure, thereby reducing non-normalized and normalized lung elastic static power in PP. PP improved gas exchange, cardiac output, and increased oxygen delivery compared with SP. CONCLUSIONS In patients with moderate to severe ARDS, PP reduced lung total elastic and elastic static power compared with SP regardless of EELV normalization because comparable transpulmonary pressures and EELV were achieved at lower airway pressures. This resulted in improved gas exchange, hemodynamics, and oxygen delivery. TRIAL REGISTRATION German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00017449).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies investigating the effect of trunk inclination on respiratory mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS have reported postural differences in partition respiratory mechanics. Compared with more upright positions, the supine-flat position provided lower lung and chest wall elastance, allowing reduced driving pressures and end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure. However, the effect of trunk inclination on respiratory mechanics in patients with obesity and ARDS is uncertain. RESEARCH QUESTION Does the effect of change in posture on partition respiratory mechanics differ between patients with ARDS with and without obesity? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS In this single-center study, patients with ARDS with and without obesity were randomized into two 15-minute steps in which trunk inclination was changed from semi-recumbent (40° head up) to supine-flat (0°), or vice versa. At the end of each step partition respiratory mechanics, airway opening pressure and arterial blood gases were measured. Paired t test was used to examine respiratory mechanics and blood gas variables in each group. RESULTS Forty consecutive patients were enrolled. Twenty were obese (BMI, 38.4 [34.5-42.3]), and 20 were non-obese (BMI, 26.6 [25.2-28.5]). In the patients with obesity, lung and chest wall elastance, driving pressure, inspiratory transpulmonary pressure, Paco2, and ventilatory ratio were lower supine than semi-recumbent (P < .001). Airways resistance was greater supine (P = .006). In the patients without obesity, only chest wall elastance was lower in supine vs semi-recumbent (P < .001). INTERPRETATION In mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS and obesity, supine posture provided lower lung and chest wall elastance, and better CO2 clearance, than the semi-recumbent posture. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered with Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12623000794606).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exaggerated lung strain and stress could damage lungs in anesthetized children. The authors hypothesized that the association of capnoperitoneum and lung collapse in anesthetized children increases lung strain-stress. Their primary aim was to describe the impact of capnoperitoneum on lung strain-stress and the effects of an individualized protective ventilation during laparoscopic surgery in children. METHODS The authors performed an observational cohort study in healthy children aged 3 to 7 yr scheduled for laparoscopic surgery in a community hospital. All received standard protective ventilation with 5 cm H2O of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Children were evaluated before capnoperitoneum, during capnoperitoneum before and after lung recruitment and optimized PEEP (PEEP adjusted to get end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure of 0), and after capnoperitoneum with optimized PEEP. The presence of lung collapse was evaluated by lung ultrasound, positive Air-Test (oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry 96% or less breathing 21% O2 for 5 min), and negative end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure. Lung strain was calculated as tidal volume/end-expiratory lung volume measured by capnodynamics, and lung stress as the end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure. RESULTS The authors studied 20 children. Before capnoperitoneum, mean lung strain was 0.20 ± 0.07 (95% CI, 0.17 to 0.23), and stress was 5.68 ± 2.83 (95% CI, 4.44 to 6.92) cm H2O. During capnoperitoneum, 18 patients presented lung collapse and strain (0.29 ± 0.13; 95% CI, 0.23 to 0.35; P < 0.001) and stress (5.92 ± 3.18; 95% CI, 4.53 to 7.31 cm H2O; P = 0.374) increased compared to before capnoperitoneum. During capnoperitoneum and optimized PEEP, children presenting lung collapse were recruited and optimized PEEP was 8.3 ± 2.2 (95% CI, 7.3 to 9.3) cm H2O. Strain returned to values before capnoperitoneum (0.20 ± 0.07; 95% CI, 0.17 to 0.22; P = 0.318), but lung stress increased (7.29 ± 2.67; 95% CI, 6.12 to 8.46 cm H2O; P = 0.020). After capnoperitoneum, strain decreased (0.18 ± 0.04; 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.20; P = 0.090), but stress remained higher (7.25 ± 3.01; 95% CI, 5.92 to 8.57 cm H2O; P = 0.024) compared to before capnoperitoneum. CONCLUSIONS Capnoperitoneum increased lung strain in healthy children undergoing laparoscopy. Lung recruitment and optimized PEEP during capnoperitoneum decreased lung strain but slightly increased lung stress. This little rise in pulmonary stress was maintained within safe, lung-protective, and clinically acceptable limits. EDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE

Abstract
PURPOSE This systematic review of randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) with meta-analyses aimed to compare the effects on intraoperative arterial oxygen tension to inspired oxygen fraction ratio (PaO2/FiO2), exerted by positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) individualized trough electrical impedance tomography (EIT) or esophageal pressure (Pes) assessment (intervention) vs. PEEP not tailored on EIT or Pes (control), in patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery with an open or laparoscopic/robotic approach. METHODS PUBMED®, EMBASE®, and Cochrane Controlled Clinical trials register were searched for observational studies and RCTs from inception to the end of August 2022. Inclusion criteria were: RCTs comparing PEEP titrated on EIT/Pes assessment vs. PEEP not individualized on EIT/Pes and reporting intraoperative PaO2/FiO2. Two authors independently extracted data from the enrolled investigations. Data are reported as mean difference and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS Six RCTs were included for a total of 240 patients undergoing general anesthesia for surgery, of whom 117 subjects in the intervention group and 123 subjects in the control group. The intraoperative mean PaO2/FiO2 was 69.6 (95%CI 32.-106.4 ) mmHg higher in the intervention group as compared with the control group with 81.4% between-study heterogeneity (p < 0.01). However, at meta-regression, the between-study heterogeneity diminished to 44.96% when data were moderated for body mass index (estimate 3.45, 95%CI 0.78-6.11, p = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery with an open or laparoscopic/robotic approach, PEEP personalized by EIT or Pes allowed the achievement of a better intraoperative oxygenation compared to PEEP not individualized through EIT or Pes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the key concepts, physiological rationale and clinical evidence for titrating positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) using transpulmonary pressure ( PL ) derived from esophageal manometry, and describe considerations to facilitate bedside implementation. RECENT FINDINGS The goal of an esophageal pressure-based PEEP setting is to have sufficient PL at end-expiration to keep (part of) the lung open at the end of expiration. Although randomized studies (EPVent-1 and EPVent-2) have not yet proven a clinical benefit of this approach, a recent posthoc analysis of EPVent-2 revealed a potential benefit in patients with lower APACHE II score and when PEEP setting resulted in end-expiratory PL values close to 0 ± 2 cmH 2 O instead of higher or more negative values. Technological advances have made esophageal pressure monitoring easier to implement at the bedside, but challenges regarding obtaining reliable measurements should be acknowledged. SUMMARY Esophageal pressure monitoring has the potential to individualize the PEEP settings. Future studies are needed to evaluate the clinical benefit of such approach.

Abstract
The ventilatory management of morbidly obese patients presents an ongoing challenge in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) as multiple physiologic changes in the respiratory system complicate weaning efforts and make extubation more difficult, often leading to increased time on the ventilator. We report the case of a young adult male who presented to our ICU on two separate occasions with hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring intubation. Esophageal manometry (EM) guided positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration was utilized during both ICU admissions to improve oxygenation and aid in extubation with spontaneous breathing trials performed on higher-than-normal PEEP settings and successful liberation on both occasions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During control mechanical ventilation (CMV), the driving pressure of the respiratory system (ΔPrs) serves as a surrogate of transpulmonary driving pressure (ΔPlung). Expiratory muscle activity that decreases end-expiratory lung volume may impair the validity of ΔPrs to reflect ΔPlung. This prospective observational study in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) ventilated with proportional assist ventilation (PAV+), aimed to investigate: (1) the prevalence of elevated ΔPlung, (2) the ΔPrs-ΔPlung relationship, and (3) whether dynamic transpulmonary pressure (Plungsw) and effort indices (transdiaphragmatic and respiratory muscle pressure swings) remain within safe limits. METHODS Thirty-one patients instrumented with esophageal and gastric catheters (n = 22) were switched from CMV to PAV+ and respiratory variables were recorded, over a maximum of 24 h. To decrease the contribution of random breaths with irregular characteristics, a 7-breath moving average technique was applied. In each patient, measurements were also analyzed per deciles of increasing lung elastance (Elung). Patients were divided into Group A, if end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure (PLEI) increased as Elung increased, and Group B, which showed a decrease or no change in PLEI with Elung increase. RESULTS In 44,836 occluded breaths, ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O was infrequently observed [0.0% (0.0-16.9%) of measurements]. End-expiratory lung volume decrease, due to active expiration, was associated with underestimation of ΔPlung by ΔPrs, as suggested by a negative linear relationship between transpulmonary pressure at end-expiration (PLEE) and ΔPlung/ΔPrs. Group A included 17 and Group B 14 patients. As Elung increased, ΔPlung increased mainly due to PLEI increase in Group A, and PLEE decrease in Group B. Although ΔPrs had an area receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.87 (95% confidence intervals 0.82-0.92, P < 0.001) for ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O, this was due exclusively to Group A [0.91 (0.86-0.95), P < 0.001]. In Group B, ΔPrs showed no predictive capacity for detecting ΔPlung ≥ 12 cmH2O [0.65 (0.52-0.78), P > 0.05]. Most of the time Plungsw and effort indices remained within safe range. CONCLUSION In patients with ARDS ventilated with PAV+, injurious tidal lung stress and effort were infrequent. In the presence of expiratory muscle activity, ΔPrs underestimated ΔPlung. This phenomenon limits the usefulness of ΔPrs as a surrogate of tidal lung stress, regardless of the mode of support.

Abstract
Objective. Understanding a patient's respiratory effort and mechanics is essential for the provision of individualized care during mechanical ventilation. However, measurement of transpulmonary pressure (the difference between airway and pleural pressures) is not easily performed in practice. While airway pressures are available on most mechanical ventilators, pleural pressures are measured indirectly by an esophageal balloon catheter. In many cases, esophageal pressure readings take other phenomena into account and are not a reliable measure of pleural pressure.Approach.A system identification approach was applied to provide accurate pleural measures from esophageal pressure readings. First, we used a closed pressurized chamber to stimulate an esophageal balloon and model its dynamics. Second, we created a simplified version of an artificial lung and tried the model with different ventilation configurations. For validation, data from 11 patients (five male and six female) were used to estimate respiratory effort profile and patient mechanics.Main results.After correcting the dynamic response of the balloon catheter, the estimates of resistance and compliance and the corresponding respiratory effort waveform were improved when compared with the adjusted quantities in the test bench. The performance of the estimated model was evaluated using the respiratory pause/occlusion maneuver, demonstrating improved agreement between the airway and esophageal pressure waveforms when using the normalized mean squared error metric. Using the corrected muscle pressure waveform, we detected start and peak times 130 ± 50 ms earlier and a peak amplitude 2.04 ± 1.46 cmH2O higher than the corresponding estimates from esophageal catheter readings.Significance.Compensating the acquired measurements with system identification techniques makes the readings more accurate, possibly better portraying the patient's situation for individualization of ventilation therapy.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by the heterogeneous distribution of lung aeration along a gravitational direction due to increased lung density. Therefore, the lung available for ventilation is usually limited to ventral, nondependent lung regions and has been called the "baby" lung. In ARDS, ventilator-induced lung injury is known to occur in nondependent "baby" lungs, as ventilation is shifted to ventral, nondependent lung regions, increasing stress and strain. To protect this nondependent "baby" lung, the clinician targets and limits global parameters such as tidal volume and plateau pressure. In addition, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is used to prevent dorsal, dependent atelectasis and, if successful, increases the size of the baby lung and lessens its susceptibility to injury from inspiratory stretch. Although many clinical trials have been performed in patients with ARDS over the last two decades, there are few successfully showing benefits on mortality (ie, prone positioning and neuromuscular blocking agents). These disappointing results contrast with other medical disciplines, especially in oncology, where the heterogeneity of diseases is recognized widely and precision medicine has been promoted. Thus, lung-protective ventilation strategies need to take an innovative approach that accounts for the heterogeneity of injured lungs. This article summarizes ventilator-induced lung injury and ARDS and discusses how to implement precision medicine in the field of ARDS. Potentially useful methods to individualize PEEP with esophageal balloon manometry, lung recruitability, and electrical impedance tomography were discussed.

Abstract
Monitoring the patient receiving veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) is challenging due to the complex physiological interplay between native and membrane lung. Understanding these interactions is essential to understand the utility and limitations of different approaches to respiratory monitoring during ECMO. We present a summary of the underlying physiology of native and membrane lung gas exchange and describe different tools for titrating and monitoring gas exchange during ECMO. However, the most important role of VV ECMO in severe respiratory failure is as a means of avoiding further ergotrauma. Although optimal respiratory management during ECMO has not been defined, over the last decade there have been advances in multimodal respiratory assessment which have the potential to guide care. We describe a combination of imaging, ventilator-derived or invasive lung mechanic assessments as a means to individualise management during ECMO.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum during surgery promotes dorsobasal atelectasis formation, which impairs respiratory mechanics and increases lung stress and strain. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can reduce pulmonary inhomogeneities and preserve end-expiratory lung volume (EELV), resulting in decreased inspiratory strain and improved gas-exchange. The optimal intraoperative PEEP strategy is unclear. OBJECTIVES To compare the effects of individualised PEEP titration strategies on set PEEP levels and resulting transpulmonary pressures, respiratory mechanics, gas-exchange and haemodynamics during Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum. DESIGN Prospective, randomised, crossover single-centre physiologic trial. SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS Thirty-six patients receiving robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. INTERVENTIONS Randomised sequence of three different PEEP strategies: standard PEEP level of 5 cmH 2 O (PEEP 5 ), PEEP titration targeting a minimal driving pressure (PEEP ΔP ) and oesophageal pressure-guided PEEP titration (PEEP Poeso ) targeting an end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure ( PTP ) of 0 cmH 2 O. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary endpoint was the PEEP level when set according to PEEP ΔP and PEEP Poeso compared with PEEP of 5 cmH 2 O. Secondary endpoints were respiratory mechanics, lung volumes, gas-exchange and haemodynamic parameters. RESULTS PEEP levels differed between PEEP ΔP , PEEP Poeso and PEEP5 (18.0 [16.0 to 18.0] vs. 20.0 [18.0 to 24.0]vs. 5.0 [5.0 to 5.0] cmH 2 O; P < 0.001 each). End-expiratory PTP and lung volume were lower in PEEP ΔP compared with PEEP Poeso ( P = 0.014 and P < 0.001, respectively), but driving pressure, lung stress, as well as respiratory system and dynamic elastic power were minimised using PEEP ΔP ( P < 0.001 each). PEEP ΔP and PEEP Poeso improved gas-exchange, but PEEP Poeso resulted in lower cardiac output compared with PEEP 5 and PEEP ΔP . CONCLUSION PEEP ΔP ameliorated the effects of Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum during surgery on end-expiratory PTP and lung volume, decreased driving pressure and dynamic elastic power, as well as improved gas-exchange while preserving cardiac output.

Advanced respiratory mechanics assessment in mechanically ventilated obese and non-obese patients with or without acute respiratory distress syndrome. Crit Care 2023; 27:343. [PMID: 37667379 PMCID: PMC10476380 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-023-04623-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Respiratory mechanics is a key element to monitor mechanically ventilated patients and guide ventilator settings. Besides the usual basic assessments, some more complex explorations may allow to better characterize patients' respiratory mechanics and individualize ventilation strategies. These advanced respiratory mechanics assessments including esophageal pressure measurements and complete airway closure detection may be particularly relevant in critically ill obese patients. This study aimed to comprehensively assess respiratory mechanics in obese and non-obese ICU patients with or without ARDS and evaluate the contribution of advanced respiratory mechanics assessments compared to basic assessments in these patients. METHODS All intubated patients admitted in two ICUs for any cause were prospectively included. Gas exchange and respiratory mechanics including esophageal pressure and end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) measurements and low-flow insufflation to detect complete airway closure were assessed in standardized conditions (tidal volume of 6 mL kg-1 predicted body weight (PBW), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cmH2O) within 24 h after intubation. RESULTS Among the 149 analyzed patients, 52 (34.9%) were obese and 90 (60.4%) had ARDS (65.4% and 57.8% of obese and non-obese patients, respectively, p = 0.385). A complete airway closure was found in 23.5% of the patients. It was more frequent in obese than in non-obese patients (40.4% vs 14.4%, p < 0.001) and in ARDS than in non-ARDS patients (30% vs. 13.6%, p = 0.029). Respiratory system and lung compliances and EELV/PBW were similarly decreased in obese patients without ARDS and obese or non-obese patients with ARDS. Chest wall compliance was not impacted by obesity or ARDS, but end-expiratory esophageal pressure was higher in obese than in non-obese patients. Chest wall contribution to respiratory system compliance differed widely between patients but was not predictable by their general characteristics. CONCLUSIONS Most respiratory mechanics features are similar in obese non-ARDS and non-obese ARDS patients, but end-expiratory esophageal pressure is higher in obese patients. A complete airway closure can be found in around 25% of critically ill patients ventilated with a PEEP of 5 cmH2O. Advanced explorations may allow to better characterize individual respiratory mechanics and adjust ventilation strategies in some patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Superobesity and laparoscopic surgery promote negative end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure that causes atelectasis formation and impaired respiratory mechanics. The authors hypothesized that end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure differs between fixed and individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) strategies and mediates their effects on respiratory mechanics, end-expiratory lung volume, gas exchange, and hemodynamic parameters in superobese patients. METHODS In this prospective, nonrandomized crossover study including 40 superobese patients (body mass index 57.3 ± 6.4 kg/m2) undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery, PEEP was set according to (1) a fixed level of 8 cm H2O (PEEPEmpirical), (2) the highest respiratory system compliance (PEEPCompliance), or (3) an end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure targeting 0 cm H2O (PEEPTranspul) at different surgical positioning. The primary endpoint was end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure at different surgical positioning; secondary endpoints were respiratory mechanics, end-expiratory lung volume, gas exchange, and hemodynamic parameters. RESULTS Individualized PEEPCompliance compared to fixed PEEPEmpirical resulted in higher PEEP (supine, 17.2 ± 2.4 vs. 8.0 ± 0.0 cm H2O; supine with pneumoperitoneum, 21.5 ± 2.5 vs. 8.0 ± 0.0 cm H2O; and beach chair with pneumoperitoneum; 15.8 ± 2.5 vs. 8.0 ± 0.0 cm H2O; P < 0.001 each) and less negative end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure (supine, -2.9 ± 2.0 vs. -10.6 ± 2.6 cm H2O; supine with pneumoperitoneum, -2.9 ± 2.0 vs. -14.1 ± 3.7 cm H2O; and beach chair with pneumoperitoneum, -2.8 ± 2.2 vs. -9.2 ± 3.7 cm H2O; P < 0.001 each). Titrated PEEP, end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure, and lung volume were lower with PEEPCompliance compared to PEEPTranspul (P < 0.001 each). Respiratory system and transpulmonary driving pressure and mechanical power normalized to respiratory system compliance were reduced using PEEPCompliance compared to PEEPTranspul. CONCLUSIONS In superobese patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery, individualized PEEPCompliance may provide a feasible compromise regarding end-expiratory transpulmonary pressures compared to PEEPEmpirical and PEEPTranspul, because PEEPCompliance with slightly negative end-expiratory transpulmonary pressures improved respiratory mechanics, lung volumes, and oxygenation while preserving cardiac output.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of awake prone position on the breathing pattern of hypoxemic patients need to be better understood. We conducted a crossover trial to assess the physiological effects of awake prone position in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. METHODS Fifteen patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure and PaO2/FiO2 < 200 mmHg underwent high-flow nasal oxygen for 1 h in supine position and 2 h in prone position, followed by a final 1-h supine phase. At the end of each study phase, the following parameters were measured: arterial blood gases, inspiratory effort (ΔPES), transpulmonary driving pressure (ΔPL), respiratory rate and esophageal pressure simplified pressure-time product per minute (sPTPES) by esophageal manometry, tidal volume (VT), end-expiratory lung impedance (EELI), lung compliance, airway resistance, time constant, dynamic strain (VT/EELI) and pendelluft extent through electrical impedance tomography. RESULTS Compared to supine position, prone position increased PaO2/FiO2 (median [Interquartile range] 104 mmHg [76-129] vs. 74 [69-93], p < 0.001), reduced respiratory rate (24 breaths/min [22-26] vs. 27 [26-30], p = 0.05) and increased ΔPES (12 cmH2O [11-13] vs. 9 [8-12], p = 0.04) with similar sPTPES (131 [75-154] cmH2O s min-1 vs. 105 [81-129], p > 0.99) and ΔPL (9 [7-11] cmH2O vs. 8 [5-9], p = 0.17). Airway resistance and time constant were higher in prone vs. supine position (9 cmH2O s arbitrary units-3 [4-11] vs. 6 [4-9], p = 0.05; 0.53 s [0.32-61] vs. 0.40 [0.37-0.44], p = 0.03). Prone position increased EELI (3887 arbitrary units [3414-8547] vs. 1456 [959-2420], p = 0.002) and promoted VT distribution towards dorsal lung regions without affecting VT size and lung compliance: this generated lower dynamic strain (0.21 [0.16-0.24] vs. 0.38 [0.30-0.49], p = 0.004). The magnitude of pendelluft phenomenon was not different between study phases (55% [7-57] of VT in prone vs. 31% [14-55] in supine position, p > 0.99). CONCLUSIONS Prone position improves oxygenation, increases EELI and promotes VT distribution towards dependent lung regions without affecting VT size, ΔPL, lung compliance and pendelluft magnitude. Prone position reduces respiratory rate and increases ΔPES because of positional increases in airway resistance and prolonged expiratory time. Because high ΔPES is the main mechanistic determinant of self-inflicted lung injury, caution may be needed in using awake prone position in patients exhibiting intense ΔPES. Clinical trail registeration: The study was registered on clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03095300) on March 29, 2017.

Abstract
There is a well-recognised importance for personalising mechanical ventilation settings to protect the lungs and the diaphragm for each individual patient. Measurement of oesophageal pressure (P oes) as an estimate of pleural pressure allows assessment of partitioned respiratory mechanics and quantification of lung stress, which helps our understanding of the patient's respiratory physiology and could guide individualisation of ventilator settings. Oesophageal manometry also allows breathing effort quantification, which could contribute to improving settings during assisted ventilation and mechanical ventilation weaning. In parallel with technological improvements, P oes monitoring is now available for daily clinical practice. This review provides a fundamental understanding of the relevant physiological concepts that can be assessed using P oes measurements, both during spontaneous breathing and mechanical ventilation. We also present a practical approach for implementing oesophageal manometry at the bedside. While more clinical data are awaited to confirm the benefits of P oes-guided mechanical ventilation and to determine optimal targets under different conditions, we discuss potential practical approaches, including positive end-expiratory pressure setting in controlled ventilation and assessment of inspiratory effort during assisted modes.

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.

Hiccup-like Contractions in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: Individualized Treatment Guided by Transpulmonary Pressure. J Pers Med 2023; 13:984.

Abstract
Hiccups-like contractions, including hiccups, respiratory myoclonus, and diaphragmatic tremor, refer to involuntary, spasmodic, and inspiratory muscle contractions. They have been repeatedly described in mechanically ventilated patients, especially those with central nervous damage. Nevertheless, their effects on patient-ventilator interaction are largely unknown, and even more overlooked is their contribution to lung and diaphragm injury. We describe, for the first time, how the management of hiccup-like contractions was individualized based on esophageal and transpulmonary pressure measurements in three mechanically ventilated patients. The necessity or not of intervention was determined by the effects of these contractions on arterial blood gases, patient-ventilator synchrony, and lung stress. In addition, esophageal pressure permitted the titration of ventilator settings in a patient with hypoxemia and atelectasis secondary to hiccups and in whom sedatives failed to eliminate the contractions and muscle relaxants were contraindicated. This report highlights the importance of esophageal pressure monitoring in the clinical decision making of hiccup-like contractions in mechanically ventilated patients.

PEEP Titration Is Markedly Affected by Trunk Inclination in Mechanically Ventilated Patients with COVID-19 ARDS: A Physiologic, Cross-Over Study. J Clin Med 2023; 12:3914. [PMID: 37373608 PMCID: PMC10299565 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12123914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 06/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Changing trunk inclination affects lung function in patients with ARDS. However, its impacts on PEEP titration remain unknown. The primary aim of this study was to assess, in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19 ARDS, the effects of trunk inclination on PEEP titration. The secondary aim was to compare respiratory mechanics and gas exchange in the semi-recumbent (40° head-of-the-bed) and supine-flat (0°) positions following PEEP titration. METHODS Twelve patients were positioned both at 40° and 0° trunk inclination (randomized order). The PEEP associated with the best compromise between overdistension and collapse guided by Electrical Impedance Tomography (PEEPEIT) was set. After 30 min of controlled mechanical ventilation, data regarding respiratory mechanics, gas exchange, and EIT parameters were collected. The same procedure was repeated for the other trunk inclination. RESULTS PEEPEIT was lower in the semi-recumbent than in the supine-flat position (8 ± 2 vs. 13 ± 2 cmH2O, p < 0.001). A semi-recumbent position with optimized PEEP resulted in higher PaO2:FiO2 (141 ± 46 vs. 196 ± 99, p = 0.02) and a lower global inhomogeneity index (46 ± 10 vs. 53 ± 11, p = 0.008). After 30 min of observation, a loss of aeration (measured by EIT) was observed only in the supine-flat position (-153 ± 162 vs. 27 ± 203 mL, p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS A semi-recumbent position is associated with lower PEEPEIT and results in better oxygenation, less derecruitment, and more homogenous ventilation compared to the supine-flat position.

Abstract
Transpulmonary pressure is an essential physiologic concept as it reflects the true pressure across the alveoli, and is a more precise marker for lung stress. To calculate transpulmonary pressure, one needs an estimate of both alveolar pressure and pleural pressure. Airway pressure during conditions of no flow is the most widely accepted surrogate for alveolar pressure, while esophageal pressure remains the most widely measured surrogate marker for pleural pressure. This review will cover important concepts and clinical applications for esophageal manometry, with a particular focus on how to use the information from esophageal manometry to adjust or titrate ventilator support. The most widely used method for measuring esophageal pressure uses an esophageal balloon catheter, although these measurements can be affected by the volume of air in the balloon. Therefore, when using balloon catheters, it is important to calibrate the balloon to ensure the most appropriate volume of air, and we discuss several methods which have been proposed for balloon calibration. In addition, esophageal balloon catheters only estimate the pleural pressure over a certain area within the thoracic cavity, which has resulted in a debate regarding how to interpret these measurements. We discuss both direct and elastance-based methods to estimate transpulmonary pressure, and how they may be applied for clinical practice. Finally, we discuss a number of applications for esophageal manometry and review many of the clinical studies published to date which have used esophageal pressure. These include the use of esophageal pressure to assess lung and chest wall compliance individually which can provide individualized information for patients with acute respiratory failure in terms of setting PEEP, or limiting inspiratory pressure. In addition, esophageal pressure has been used to estimate effort of breathing which has application for ventilator weaning, detection of upper airway obstruction after extubation, and detection of patient and mechanical ventilator asynchrony.

Abstract
Patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) is a life-threatening condition arising from excessive respiratory effort and work of breathing in patients with lung injury. The pathophysiology of P-SILI involves factors related to the underlying lung pathology and vigorous respiratory effort. P-SILI might develop both during spontaneous breathing and mechanical ventilation with preserved spontaneous respiratory activity. In spontaneously breathing patients, clinical signs of increased work of breathing and scales developed for early detection of potentially harmful effort might help clinicians prevent unnecessary intubation, while, on the contrary, identifying patients who would benefit from early intubation. In mechanically ventilated patients, several simple non-invasive methods for assessing the inspiratory effort exerted by the respiratory muscles were correlated with respiratory muscle pressure. In patients with signs of injurious respiratory effort, therapy aimed to minimize this problem has been demonstrated to prevent aggravation of lung injury and, therefore, improve the outcome of such patients. In this narrative review, we accumulated the current information on pathophysiology and early detection of vigorous respiratory effort. In addition, we proposed a simple algorithm for prevention and treatment of P-SILI that is easily applicable in clinical practice.

Abstract
Respiratory biomechanics constitutes an important topic in clinical practice. Different strategies like mathematical models have been implemented to understand and replicate scenarios allowing deeper analysis. In this paper, a nonlinear N - compartments model is presented, allowing to represent the lung in a heterogeneous way. It considers the resistance of each generation of the airway and each alveolar compartment characterized independently. Includes properties of nonlinear elastance, viscoelasticity, inertia, and surface tension. In this work, to show the functionality of the model, a simulation of four alveolar units coupled to the airway model is presented using pressure as input signal simulating mechanical ventilation. However, the model can be used to simulate any desired number of alveolar units. Values at airway output were compared to the linear model, obtaining a correlation close to 1. Also, was compared to a physical test lung using Hamilton - S1 mechanical ventilator obtaining a positive correlation. The model makes it possible to evaluate the effects of different properties during spontaneous respiration or mechanical ventilation, both at the airway opening and alveolar. These properties include viscoelasticity, surface tension, inertia, among others.

Abstract
Strategies for the intraoperative ventilator management of the critically ill patient focus on parameters used for lung protective ventilation with acute respiratory distress syndrome, preventing or limiting the deleterious effects of mechanical ventilation, and optimizing anesthetic and surgical conditions to limit postoperative pulmonary complications for patients at risk. Patient conditions such as obesity, sepsis, the need for laparoscopic surgery, or one-lung ventilation may benefit from intraoperative lung protective ventilation strategies. Anesthesiologists can use risk evaluation and prediction tools, monitor advanced physiologic targets, and incorporate new innovative monitoring techniques to develop an individualized approach for patients.

Abstract
Advanced respiratory monitoring involves several mini- or noninvasive tools, applicable at bedside, focused on assessing lung aeration and morphology, lung recruitment and overdistention, ventilation-perfusion distribution, inspiratory effort, respiratory drive, respiratory muscle contraction, and patient-ventilator asynchrony, in dealing with acute respiratory failure. Compared to a conventional approach, advanced respiratory monitoring has the potential to provide more insights into the pathologic modifications of lung aeration induced by the underlying disease, follow the response to therapies, and support clinicians in setting up a respiratory support strategy aimed at protecting the lung and respiratory muscles. Thus, in the clinical management of the acute respiratory failure, advanced respiratory monitoring could play a key role when a therapeutic strategy, relying on individualization of the treatments, is adopted.

Collins PD, Giosa L, Camarda V, Camporota L. Physiological adaptations during weaning from veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Intensive Care Med Exp 2023; 11:7. [PMID: 36759388 PMCID: PMC9911184 DOI: 10.1186/s40635-023-00493-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) has an established evidence base in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and has seen exponential growth in its use over the past decades. However, there is a paucity of evidence regarding the approach to weaning, with variation of practice and outcomes between centres. Preconditions for weaning, management of patients' sedation and mechanical ventilation during this phase, criteria defining success or failure, and the optimal duration of a trial prior to decannulation are all debated subjects. Moreover, there is no prospective evidence demonstrating the superiority of weaning the sweep gas flow (SGF), the extracorporeal blood flow (ECBF) or the fraction of oxygen of the SGF (FdO2), thereby a broad inter-centre variability exists in this regard. Accordingly, the aim of this review is to discuss the required physiological basis to interpret different weaning approaches: first, we will outline the physiological changes in blood gases which should be expected from manipulations of ECBF, SGF and FdO2. Subsequently, we will describe the resulting adaptation of patients' control of breathing, with special reference to the effects of weaning on respiratory effort. Finally, we will discuss pertinent elements of the monitoring and mechanical ventilation of passive and spontaneously breathing patients during a weaning trial. Indeed, to avoid lung injury, invasive monitoring is often required in patients making spontaneous effort, as pressures measured at the airway may not reflect the degree of lung strain. In the absence of evidence, our approach to weaning is driven largely by an understanding of physiology.

Abstract
Whether prone positioning (PP) modulates acute lung inflammation by the modulation of biomechanical forces of ventilator-induced lung injuries (VILIs) remains unclear. We aimed to demonstrate that PP decreases acute lung inflammation in animals with experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Animals were under general anesthesia and protective ventilation (tidal volume 6 mL·kg-1, PEEP 5 cmH2O). ARDS was induced by intratracheal instillation of chlorohydric acid. Animals were then randomized to PP, or to supine position (SP). After 4 h, a positron emission tomography (PET) acquisition with [11C](R)-PK11195 was performed coupled with computerized tomography (CT) acquisitions, allowing the CT quantification of VILI-associated parameters. [11C](R)-PK11195 lung uptake was quantified using pharmacokinetic multicompartment models. Analyses were performed on eight lung sections distributed along the antero-posterior dimension. Six animals were randomized to PP, five to SP (median [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text] [interquartile range]: 164 [102-269] mmHg). The normally aerated compartment was significantly redistributed to the posterior lung regions of animals in PP, compared with SP. Dynamic strain was significantly increased in posterior regions of SP animals, compared with PP. After 4 h, animals in PP had a significantly lower uptake of [11C](R)-PK11195, compared with SP. [11C](R)-PK11195 regional uptake was independently associated with the study group, dynamic strain, tidal hyperinflation, and regional respiratory system compliance in multivariate analysis. In an experimental model of ARDS, 4 h of PP significantly decreased acute lung inflammation assessed with PET. The beneficial impact of PP on acute lung inflammation was consecutive to the combination of decreased biomechanical forces and changes in the respiratory system mechanics.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Prone position decreases acute lung macrophage inflammation quantified in vivo with [11C](R)-PK11195 positron emission tomography in an experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome. Regional macrophage inflammation is maximal in the most anterior and posterior lung section of supine animals, in relation with increased regional tidal strain and hyperinflation, and reduced regional lung compliance.

Abstract
Paediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome that is associated with high rates of mortality and long-term morbidity. Factors that distinguish PARDS from adult acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) include changes in developmental stage and lung maturation with age, precipitating factors, and comorbidities. No specific treatment is available for PARDS and management is largely supportive, but methods to identify patients who would benefit from specific ventilation strategies or ancillary treatments, such as prone positioning, are needed. Understanding of the clinical and biological heterogeneity of PARDS, and of differences in clinical features and clinical course, pathobiology, response to treatment, and outcomes between PARDS and adult ARDS, will be key to the development of novel preventive and therapeutic strategies and a precision medicine approach to care. Studies in which clinical, biomarker, and transcriptomic data, as well as informatics, are used to unpack the biological and phenotypic heterogeneity of PARDS, and implementation of methods to better identify patients with PARDS, including methods to rapidly identify subphenotypes and endotypes at the point of care, will drive progress on the path to precision medicine.

Practical Aspects of Esophageal Pressure Monitoring in Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13010136. [PMID: 36675797 PMCID: PMC9867326 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13010136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2022] [Revised: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Esophageal pressure (Pes) monitoring is a minimally invasive advanced respiratory monitoring method with the potential to guide ventilation support management. Pes monitoring enables the separation of lung and chest wall mechanics and estimation of transpulmonary pressure, which is recognized as an important risk factor for lung injury during both spontaneous breathing and mechanical ventilation. Appropriate balloon positioning, calibration, and measurement techniques are important to avoid inaccurate results. Both the approach of using absolute expiratory Pes values and the approach based on tidal Pes difference have shown promising results for ventilation adjustments, with the potential to decrease the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury.

Abstract
Background Esophageal pressure (Pes) can be used as a reliable surrogate for pleural pressure, especially in critically ill patients requiring personalized mechanical ventilation strategies. How to choose the proper esophageal balloon filling volume and then find the optimal value of esophageal pressure remains a challenge. The study aimed to assess the feasibility of catheters for Pes monitoring in mechanically ventilated patients. Materials and methods Twelve patients under pressure-controlled mechanical ventilation were included in this study. Raw esophageal pressure was recorded at different balloon filling volumes. Then, the P-V curves were determined. V WORK was the intermediate linear section on the end-expiratory P-V curve, and V BEST was the filling volume providing the maximum difference between Pes at end-inspiration and end-expiration. The raw value of Pes was recorded, and the calibrated values of Pes were calculated by calculating the esophageal wall pressure (Pew) and esophageal elastance (Ees). Results Twenty-four series of Pes measurements were performed. The mean V MIN and V MAX were 2.17 ± 0.49 ml (range, 1.0-3.0 ml) and 6.79 ± 0.83 ml (range, 5.0-9.0 ml), respectively, whereas V BEST was 4.69 ± 0.16 ml (range, 2.0-8.0 ml). Ees was 1.35 ± 0.51 cm H2O/ml (range, 0.26-2.38 cm H2O/ml). The estimated Pew at V BEST was 3.16 ± 2.19 cm H2O (range, 0-7.97 cm H2O). Patients with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2 had a significantly lower V MAX (5.88 [5.25-6] vs. 7.25 [7-8] ml, p = 0.006) and a significantly lower V BEST (3.69 [2.5-4.38] vs. 5.19 [4-6] ml, p = 0.036) than patients with a BMI < 25 kg/m2. Patients with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ≥ 10 cm H2O had a lower V MIN and V BEST than patients with PEEP < 10 cm H2O, P > 0.05. Patients in the supine position had a higher esophageal pressure than those in the prone position with the same balloon filling volume. Conclusions Calibration of esophageal pressure to identify the best filling volume of esophageal balloon catheters is feasible. The esophageal pressure can be influenced by BMI, PEEP, and position. It is necessary to titrate the optimal inflation volume again when the PEEP values or the positions change.

Abstract
Risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complication (PPC) have not been determined according to preoperative respiratory spirometry. Thus, we aimed to find contributors for PPC in patients with restrictive or normal spirometric pattern. We analyzed 654 patients (379 with normal and 275 with restrictive spirometric pattern). PPCs comprised respiratory failure, pleural effusion, atelectasis, respiratory infection, and bronchospasm. We analyzed the association between perioperative factors and PPC using binary logistic regression. In particular, we conducted subgroup analysis on the patients stratified according to preoperative spirometry. Of 654 patients, 27/379 patients (7.1%) with normal spirometric pattern and 33/275 patients (12.0%) with restrictive spirometric pattern developed PPCs. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that high driving pressure was the only intraoperative modifiable factor increasing PPC risk (OR = 1.13 [1.02-1.25], p = 0.025). In the subgroup of patients with restrictive spirometric pattern, intraoperative driving pressure was significantly associated with PPC (OR = 1.21 [1.05-1.39], p = 0.009), whereas driving pressure was not associated with PPC in patients with normal spirometric pattern (OR = 1.04 [0.89-1.21], p = 0.639). In patients with restrictive spirometric pattern, greater intraoperative driving pressure is significantly associated with increased PPC risk. In contrast, intraoperative driving pressure is not associated with PPC in patients with normal spirometric pattern.

Abstract
Objective. Protective ventilation should be based onlungmechanics and transpulmonary driving pressure (ΔPTP), as this 'hits' the lung directly.Approach. The change in end-expiratory lung volume (ΔEELV) is determined by the size of the PEEP step and the elastic properties of the lung (EL), ΔEELV/ΔPEEP. Consequently, EL can be determined as ΔPEEP/ΔEELV. By calibration of tidal inspiratory impedance change with ventilator inspiratory tidal volume, end-expiratory lung impedance changes were converted to volume changes and lung P/V curves were obtained during a PEEP trial in ten patients with acute respiratory failure. The PEEP level where ΔPTP was lowest (optimal PEEP) was determined as the steepest point of the lung P/V curve.Main results. Over-all EL ranged between 7.0-23.2 cmH2O/L. Optimal PEEP was 12.9 cmH2O (10-16) with ΔPTP of 4.1 cmH2O (2.8-7.6). Patients with highest EL were PEEP non-responders, where EL increased in non-dependent and dependent lung at high PEEP, indicating over-distension in all lung. Patients with lower EL were PEEP responders with decreasing EL in dependent lung when increasing PEEP.Significance. PEEP non-responders could be identified by regional lung P/V curves derived from ventilator calibrated EIT. Optimal PEEP could be determined from the equation for the lung P/V curve.

Abstract
The ventilatory care of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is evolving as our understanding of physiologic mechanisms of respiratory failure improves. Despite several decades of research, the mortality rate for ARDS remains high. Over the years, we continue to expand strategies to identify and mitigate ventilator-induced lung injury. This now includes a greater understanding of the benefits and harms associated with spontaneous breathing.

Abstract
Background The current standard of care during severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is based on low tidal volume (VT) ventilation, at 6 mL/kg of predicted body weight. The time-controlled adaptive ventilation (TCAV) is an alternative strategy, based on specific settings of the airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) mode. Briefly, TCAV reduces lung injury, including: (1) an improvement in alveolar recruitment and homogeneity; (2) reduction in alveolar and alveolar duct micro-strain and stress-risers. TCAV can result in higher intra-thoracic pressures and thus impair hemodynamics resulting from heart-lung interactions. The objective of our study was to compare hemodynamics between TCAV and conventional protective ventilation in a porcine ARDS model. Methods In 10 pigs (63–73 kg), lung injury was induced by repeated bronchial saline lavages followed by 2 h of injurious ventilation. The animals were then randomized into two groups: (1) Conventional protective ventilation with a VT of 6 mL/kg and PEEP adjusted to a plateau pressure set between 28 and 30 cmH2O; (2) TCAV group with P-high set between 27 and 29 cmH2O, P-low at 0 cmH2O, T-low adjusted to terminate at 75% of the expiratory flow peak, and T-high at 3–4 s, with I:E > 6:1. Results Both lung elastance and PaO2:FiO2 were consistent with severe ARDS after 2 h of injurious mechanical ventilation. There was no significant difference in systemic arterial blood pressure, pulmonary blood pressure or cardiac output between Conventional protective ventilation and TCAV. Levels of total PEEP were significantly higher in the TCAV group (p < 0.05). Driving pressure and lung elastance were significantly lower in the TCAV group (p < 0.05). Conclusion No hemodynamic adverse events were observed in the TCAV group compared as to the standard protective ventilation group in this swine ARDS model, and TCAV appeared to be beneficial to the respiratory system.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of respiratory failure burden by high hospital mortality. No specific pharmacologic treatment is currently available and its ventilatory management is a key strategy to allow reparative and regenerative lung tissue processes. Unfortunately, a poor management of mechanical ventilation can induce ventilation induced lung injury (VILI) caused by physical and biological forces which are at play. Different parameters have been described over the years to assess lung injury severity and facilitate optimization of mechanical ventilation. Indices of lung injury severity include variables related to gas exchange abnormalities, ventilatory setting and respiratory mechanics, ventilation intensity, and the presence of lung hyperinflation versus derecruitment. Recently, specific indexes have been proposed to quantify the stress and the strain released over time using more comprehensive algorithms of calculation such as the mechanical power, and the interaction between driving pressure (DP) and respiratory rate (RR) in the novel DP multiplied by four plus RR [(4 × DP) + RR] index. These new parameters introduce the concept of ventilation intensity as contributing factor of VILI. Ventilation intensity should be taken into account to optimize protective mechanical ventilation strategies, with the aim to reduce intensity to the lowest level required to maintain gas exchange to reduce the potential for VILI. This is further gaining relevance in the current era of phenotyping and enrichment strategies in ARDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Acute respiratory distress syndrome is treated by utilizing a lung protective ventilation strategy. Obesity presents with additional physiologic considerations, and optimizing ventilator settings may be limited with traditional means. Transpulmonary pressure (PL) obtained via esophageal manometry may be more beneficial to titrating positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in this population. We sought to determine the feasibility and impact of implementation of a protocol for use of esophageal balloon to set PEEP in obese patients in a community ICU. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study of obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 35 kg/m2) patients undergoing individualized PEEP titration with esophageal manometry. Data were extracted from electronic health record, and Wilcoxon signed rank test was performed to determine whether there were differences in the ventilatory parameters over time. SETTING Intensive care unit in a community based hospital system in Newark, Delaware. PATIENTS Twenty-nine mechanically ventilated adult patients with a median BMI of 45.8 kg/m2 with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). INTERVENTION Individualized titration of PEEP via esophageal catheter obtained transpulmonary pressures. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Outcomes measured include PEEP, oxygenation, and driving pressure (DP) before and after esophageal manometry at 4 and 24 hr. Clinical outcomes including adverse events (pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum), increased vasopressor use, rescue therapies (inhaled pulmonary vasodilators, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, and new prone position), continuous renal replacement therapy, and tracheostomy were also analyzed. Four hours after PEEP titration, median PEEP increased from 12 to 20 cm H2O (p < 0.0001) with a corresponding decrease in median DP from 15 to 13 cm H2O (p = 0.002). Subsequently, oxygenation improved as median Fio2 decreased from 0.8 to 0.6 (p < 0.0001), and median oxygen saturation/Fio2 (S/F) ratio improved from 120 to 165 (p < 0.0001). One patient developed pneumomediastinum. No pneumothoraces were identified. Improvements in oxygenation continued to be seen at 24 hr, compared with the prior 4 hr mark, Fio2 (0.6-0.45; p < 0.004), and S/F ratio (165-211.11; p < 0.001). Seven patients required an increase in vasopressor support after 4 hours. Norepinephrine and epinephrine were increased by 0.05 (± 0.04) µg/kg/min and 0.02 (± 0.01) µg/kg/min on average, respectively. CONCLUSIONS PL-guided PEEP titration in obese patients can be used to safely titrate PEEP and decrease DP, resulting in improved oxygenation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION : To adhere to the Hippocratic Oath, to "first, do no harm", we need to make every effort to minimize the adverse effects of mechanical ventilation. Our understanding of the mechanisms of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) has increased in recent years. Research focuses now on methods to monitor lung stress and inhomogeneity and targets we should aim for when setting the ventilator. In parallel, efforts to promote early assisted ventilation to prevent VIDD have revealed new challenges, such as titrating inspiratory effort and synchronizing the mechanical with the patients' spontaneous breaths, while at the same time adhering to lung-protective targets. AREAS COVERED This is a narrative review of the key mechanisms contributing to VILI and VIDD and the methods currently available to evaluate and mitigate the risk of lung and diaphragm injury. EXPERT OPINION Implementing lung and diaphragm protective ventilation requires individualizing the ventilator settings, and this can only be accomplished by exploiting in everyday clinical practice the tools available to monitor lung stress and inhomogeneity, inspiratory effort, and patient-ventilator interaction.
