Emergency Department SpO 2/FiO 2 Ratios Correlate with Mechanical Ventilation and Intensive Care Unit Requirements in COVID-19 Patients. West J Emerg Med 2024; 25:325-331. [PMID: 38801037 PMCID: PMC11112664 DOI: 10.5811/westjem.17975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Patients with coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) are at high risk for respiratory dysfunction. The pulse oximetry/fraction of inspired oxygen (SpO2/FiO2) ratio is a non-invasive assessment of respiratory dysfunction substituted for the PaO2:FiO2 ratio in Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scoring. We hypothesized that emergency department (ED) SpO2/FiO2 ratios correlate with requirement for mechanical ventilation in COVID-19 patients. Our objective was to identify COVID-19 patients at greatest risk of requiring mechanical ventilation, using SpO2/FiO2 ratios. Methods We performed a retrospective review of patients admitted with COVID-19 at two hospitals. Highest and lowest SpO2/FiO2 ratios (percent saturation/fraction of inspired O2) were calculated on admission. We performed chi-square, univariate, and multiple regression analysis to evaluate the relationship of admission SpO2/FiO2 ratios with requirement for mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit (ICU) care. Results A total of 539 patients (46% female; 84% White), with a mean age 67.6 ± 18.6 years, met inclusion criteria. Patients who required mechanical ventilation during their hospital stay were statistically younger in age (P = 0.001), had a higher body mass index (P < .001), and there was a higher percentage of patients who were obese (P = 0.03) and morbidly obese (P < .001). Shortness of breath, cough, and fever were the most common presenting symptoms with a median temperature of 99°F. Average white blood count was higher in patients who required ventilation (P = <0.001). A highest obtained ED SpO2/FiO2 ratio of ≤300 was associated with a requirement for mechanical ventilation. A lowest obtained ED SpO2/FiO2 ratio of ≤300 was associated with a requirement for intensive care unit care. There was no statistically significant correlation between ED SpO2/FiO2 ratios >300 and mechanical ventilation or intensive care unit (ICU) requirement. Conclusion The ED SpO2/FiO2 ratios correlated with mechanical ventilation and ICU requirements during hospitalization for COVID-19. These results support ED SpO2/FiO2 as a possible triage tool and predictor of hospital resource requirements for patients admitted with COVID-19. Further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
AIM To assess the performance of validated prediction models for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) by systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS Eight databases (Medline, CINAHL, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data, Sinomed, and VIP) were searched up to March 26, 2023. Studies developed and validated a prediction model for ARDS in adult patients were included. Items on study design, incidence, derivation methods, predictors, discrimination, and calibration were collected. The risk of bias was assessed by the Prediction model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool. Models with a reported area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic (AUC) metric were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 25 studies were retrieved, including 48 unique prediction models. Discrimination was reported in all studies, with AUC ranging from 0.701 to 0.95. Emerged AUC value of the logistic regression model was 0.837 (95% CI: 0.814 to 0.859). Besides, the value in the ICU group was 0.856 (95% CI: 0.812 to 0.899), the acute pancreatitis group was 0.863 (95% CI: 0.844 to 0.882), and the postoperation group was 0.835 (95% CI: 0.808 to 0.861). In total, 24 of the included studies had a high risk of bias, which was mostly due to the improper methods in predictor screening (13/24), model calibration assessment (9/24), and dichotomization of continuous predictors (6/24). CONCLUSIONS This study shows that most prediction models for ARDS are at high risk of bias, and the discrimination ability of the model is excellent. Adherence to standardized guidelines for model development is necessary to derive a prediction model of value to clinicians.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early recognition and therapeutic intervention are important in patients at high risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The lung injury prediction score (LIPS) has been used to predict ARDS development; however, it was developed based on the previous definition of ARDS. We investigated the predictive role of LIPS in ARDS development according to its Berlin definition in the Korean population. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study that enrolled adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) at a single university-affiliated hospital in Korea from September 1, 2018, to August 31, 2019. LIPS at the time of ICU admission and the development of ARDS were evaluated. RESULTS Of the 548 enrolled patients, 33 (6.0%) fulfilled the Berlin ARDS definition. The LIPS for non-ARDS and ARDS groups were 4.96±3.05 and 8.53±2.45, respectively (p<0.001); it was significantly associated with ARDS development (odds ratio 1.48, 95% confidence interval, 1.29-1.69; p<0.001). LIPS >6 predicted the development of ARDS with a sensitivity of 84.8% and a specificity of 67.2% [area under the curve (AUC)=0.82]. A modified LIPS model adjusted for age and severity at ICU admission predicted ICU mortality in patients with ARDS (AUC=0.80), but not in those without ARDS (AUC=0.54). CONCLUSION LIPS predicted the development of ARDS as diagnosed by the Berlin definition in the Korean population. LIPS provides useful information for managing patients with ARDS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in treatment strategies, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after cardiac surgery remains associated with high morbidity and mortality. A method of screening patients for risk of ARDS after cardiac surgery is needed. OBJECTIVES To develop and validate an ARDS prediction score designed to identify patients at high risk of ARDS after cardiac or aortic surgery. METHODS An ARDS prediction score was derived from a retrospective derivation cohort and validated in a prospective cohort. Discrimination and calibration of the score were assessed with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, respectively. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess model performance at different cutoff points. RESULTS The retrospective derivation cohort consisted of 201 patients with and 602 patients without ARDS who had undergone cardiac or aortic surgery. Nine routinely available clinical variables were included in the ARDS prediction score. In the derivation cohort, the score distinguished patients with versus without ARDS with area under the curve of 0.84 (95% CI, 0.81-0.88; Hosmer-Lemeshow P = .55). In the validation cohort, 46 of 1834 patients (2.5%) had ARDS develop within 7 days after cardiac or aortic surgery. Area under the curve was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.71-0.85), and the score was well calibrated (Hosmer-Lemeshow P = .53). CONCLUSIONS The ARDS prediction score can be used to identify high-risk patients from the first day after cardiac or aortic surgery. Patients with a score of 3 or greater should be closely monitored. The score requires external validation before clinical use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to investigate the association between noninvasive ventilation (NIV) initiated in the emergency department and patient outcomes for those requiring invasive mechanical ventilation so that we could understand the effect of extended NIV use (ie, > 4 h) prior to invasive mechanical ventilation on patient outcomes. METHODS We conducted a retrospective single-center cohort study at an academic tertiary care hospital center. All emergency department patients with acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation and admission to the ICU within 48 h of initial presentation over a 24-month period were included. RESULTS Subject characteristics, ventilator parameters, and clinical course were captured via electronic query, respiratory billing data, and standardized chart abstraction. A total of 431 subjects with acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation within 48 h of arrival were identified, of whom 115 (26.7%) were exposed to NIV prior to invasive mechanical ventilation, with a median duration of 4 h (interquartile range 1.9-9.3). Based on a multivariable model controlling for covariates, any NIV exposure prior to invasive mechanical ventilation was not associated with an increased odds of persistent organ dysfunction or death. However, in the subset of subjects exposed to NIV, extended NIV use (ie, > 4 h) prior to invasive mechanical ventilation was associated with increased odds of persistent organ dysfunction or death (odds ratio 4.11, 95% CI 1.51-11.19). Extended NIV use was also associated with increased odds of in-hospital mortality (odds ratio 4.02, 95% CI 1.51-10.74). CONCLUSIONS Although any exposure to NIV prior to invasive mechanical ventilation did not appear to affect morbidity and mortality, extended NIV use prior to invasive mechanical ventilation was associated with worse patient outcomes, suggesting a need for additional study to better understand the ramifications of duration of NIV use prior to failure on outcomes. Given this early timeframe for intervention, future studies should be collaborations between the emergency department and ICU.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Timely identification of surgery patients at risk of postoperative complications is important to improve the care process, including critical care. This review discusses epidemiology and impact of postoperative complications; prediction scores used to identify surgical patients at risk of complications, and the role of critical care in the postoperative management. It also discusses how critical care may change, with respect to admission to the ICU. RECENT FINDING Optimization of postoperative outcome, next to preoperative and intraoperative optimization, consists of using risk scores to early identify patients at risk of developing complications. Critical care consultancy should be performed in the ward after surgery, if necessary. ICUs could work at different levels of intensity, but remain preferably multidisciplinary, combining care for surgical and medical patients. ICU admission should still be considered for those patients at very high risk of postoperative complications, and for those receiving complex or emergency interventions. SUMMARY To optimize critical care resources for surgery patients at high risk of postoperative complications, the care process should not only include critical care and monitoring in ICUs, but also strict monitoring in the ward. Prediction scores could help to timely identify patients at risk. More intense care (monitoring) outside the ICU could improve outcome. This concept of critical care without borders could be implemented in the near future to optimize the local resources and improve patient safety. Predict more, do less in ICUs, and more in the ward.

The effect of emergency department crowding on lung-protective ventilation utilization for critically ill patients. J Crit Care 2019; 52:40-47.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure effects of ED crowding on lung-protective ventilation (LPV) utilization in critically ill ED patients. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of adult mechanically ventilated ED patients admitted to the medical intensive care unit (MICU), over a 3.5-year period at a single academic tertiary care hospital. Clinical data, including reason for intubation, severity of illness (MPM0-III), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) risk score (EDLIPS), and ventilator settings were extracted via electronic query of electronic health record and standardized chart abstraction. Crowding metrics were obtained at 5-min intervals and averaged over the ED stay, stratified by acuity and disposition. Multivariate logistic regression was used to predict likelihood of LPV prior to ED departure. RESULTS Mechanical ventilation was used in 446 patients for a median ED duration of 3.7 h (interquartile ratio, IQR, 2.3, 5.6). Mean MPM0-III score was 32.5 ± 22.7, with high risk for ARDS (EDLIPS ≥5) seen in 373 (82%) patients. Initial and final ED ventilator settings differed in 134 (30.0%) patients, of which only 47 (35.1%) involved tidal volume changes. Higher percentages of active ED patients (workup in-progress) and those requiring eventual admission were associated with lower odds of LPV utilization by ED departure (OR 0.97, 95%CI 0.94-1.00; OR 0.97, 95%CI 0.94-1.00, respectively). In periods of high volume, ventilator adjustments to settings other than the tidal volume were associated with higher odds of LPV utilization. Reason for intubation, MPM0-III, and EDLIPS were not associated with LPV utilization, with no interactions detected in times of crowding. CONCLUSIONS ED patients remain on suboptimal tidal volume settings with infrequent ventilator adjustments during the ED stay. Hospitals should focus on both systemic factors and bedside physician and/or respiratory therapist interventions to increase LPV utilization in times of ED boarding and crowding for all patients.

Abstract
Background. Lung injury prediction score (LIPS) is valuable for early recognition of ventilated patients at high risk for developing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This study analyzes the value of LIPS in predicting ARDS and mortality among ventilated surgical patients. Methods. IRB approved, prospective observational study including all ventilated patients admitted to the surgical intensive care unit at a single tertiary center over 6 months. ARDS was defined using the Berlin criteria. LIPS were calculated for all patients and analyzed. Logistic regression models evaluated the ability of LIPS to predict development of ARDS and mortality. A receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve demonstrated the optimal LIPS value to statistically predict development of ARDS. Results. 268 ventilated patients were observed; 141 developed ARDS and 127 did not. The average LIPS for patients who developed ARDS was 8.8 ± 2.8 versus 5.4 ± 2.8 for those who did not (p < 0.001). An ROC area under the curve of 0.79 demonstrates LIPS is statistically powerful for predicting ARDS development. Furthermore, for every 1-unit increase in LIPS, the odds of developing ARDS increase by 1.50 (p < 0.001) and odds of ICU mortality increase by 1.22 (p < 0.001). Conclusion. LIPS is reliable for predicting development of ARDS and predicting mortality in critically ill surgical patients.

IEEE JOURNAL OF TRANSLATIONAL ENGINEERING IN HEALTH AND MEDICINE 2013; 1:1500210. [PMID: 25379360 PMCID: PMC4219590 DOI: 10.1109/jtehm.2013.2285916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2013] [Revised: 08/07/2013] [Accepted: 09/20/2013] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
Recently we demonstrated the utility of optical fluorometry to detect a change in the redox status of mitochondrial autofluorescent coenzymes NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) and FAD (oxidized form of Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide (FADH2,)) as a measure of mitochondrial function in isolated perfused rat lungs (IPL). The objective of this study was to utilize optical fluorometry to evaluate the effect of rat exposure to hyperoxia (>95% O2 for 48 hours) on lung tissue mitochondrial redox status of NADH and FAD in a nondestructive manner in IPL. Surface NADH and FAD signals were measured before and after lung perfusion with perfusate containing rotenone (ROT, complex I inhibitor), potassium cyanide (KCN, complex IV inhibitor), and/or pentachlorophenol (PCP, uncoupler). ROT- or KCN-induced increase in NADH signal is considered a measure of complex I activity, and KCN-induced decrease in FAD signal is considered a measure of complex II activity. The results show that hyperoxia decreased complex I and II activities by 63% and 55%, respectively, as compared to lungs of rats exposed to room air (normoxic rats). Mitochondrial complex I and II activities in lung homogenates were also lower (77% and 63%, respectively) for hyperoxic than for normoxic lungs. These results suggest that the mitochondrial matrix is more reduced in hyperoxic lungs than in normoxic lungs, and demonstrate the ability of optical fluorometry to detect a change in mitochondrial redox state of hyperoxic lungs prior to histological changes characteristic of hyperoxia.

OBJECTIVES The objectives were to characterize the use of mechanical ventilation in the emergency department (ED), with respect to ventilator settings, monitoring, and titration and to determine the incidence of progression to acute lung injury (ALI) after admission, examining the influence of factors present in the ED on ALI progression. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational cohort study of mechanically ventilated patients with severe sepsis and septic shock (June 2005 to May 2010), presenting to an academic ED with an annual census of >95,000 patients. All patients in the study (n = 251) were analyzed for characterization of mechanical ventilation use in the ED. The primary outcome variable of interest was the incidence of ALI progression after intensive care unit (ICU) admission from the ED and risk factors present in the ED associated with this outcome. Secondary analyses included ALI present in the ED and clinical outcomes comparing all patients progressing to ALI versus no ALI. To assess predictors of progression to ALI, significant variables in univariable analyses at a p ≤ 0.10 level were candidates for inclusion in a bidirectional, stepwise, multivariable logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Lung-protective ventilation was used in 68 patients (27.1%) and did not differ based on ALI status. Delivered tidal volume was highly variable, with a median tidal volume delivered of 8.8 mL/kg ideal body weight (IBW; interquartile range [IQR] = 7.8 to 10.0) and a range of 5.2 to 14.6 mL/kg IBW. Sixty-nine patients (27.5%) in the entire cohort progressed to ALI after admission to the hospital, with a mean (±SD) onset of 2.1 (±1) days. Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that a higher body mass index (BMI), higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, and ED vasopressor use were associated with progression to ALI. There was no association between ED ventilator settings and progression to ALI. Compared to patients who did not progress to ALI, patients progressing to ALI after admission from the ED had an increase in mechanical ventilator duration, vasopressor dependence, and hospital length of stay (LOS). CONCLUSIONS Lung-protective ventilation is uncommon in the ED, regardless of ALI status. Given the frequency of ALI in the ED, the progression shortly after ICU admission, and the clinical consequences of this syndrome, the effect of ED-based interventions aimed at reducing the sequelae of ALI should be investigated further.
