Diaphragmatic Ultrasound in Acute Hypoxic - Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure (ARF)
Acute Hypoxic - Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure (ARF)Mortality of acute hypoxic - hypercapnic respiratory failure (ARF) patients underwent invasive mechanical ventilation is demonstrated to be higher than in patients who underwent only non invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV). There is an increased need to detect more predictive factors for NIV failure, in order to better identify patients most at risk of facing negative outcomes. The aim of this experimental pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of the ultrasound of diaphragm in ARF patients underwent non invasive mechanical ventilation ( primary endpoint ). Furthermore the secondary aim is to observe any relationship between diaphragmatic function (excursion), diaphragmatic thickening and the timing of arterial blood gases (ABGs) compensation in patients with ARF undergoing NIV treatment; additional outcomes are: correlation with dyspnea level, time of mechanical ventilation, NIV failure, rate of tracheostomy, length of stay in ICU and in-hospital and 90-day mortality.
High Flow Nasal Oxygen Versus VNI in Acute Hypercapnic Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema
Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary EdemaHypercapnic Respiratory FailureThe purpose of this study is to determine whether high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) therapy is non inferior to non invasive ventilation (NIV) in the immediate treatment of patients with acute hypercapnic cardiogenic pulmonary edema associated with respiratory failure in the emergency department.
The Effect of Permissive Hypercapnia on Oxygenation and Post-operative Pulmonary Complication During...
Thoracic SurgeryPermissive hypercapnia increased the survival rate in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who required mechanical ventilation in critical care medicine. This has been explained by its association with ventilator induced lung injury. Since then, a protective lung ventilation strategy has been very important, with a low tidal volume of 4-6 ml/kg. Patients undergoing surgery will inevitably require mechanical ventilation. In particular, patients undergoing one lung ventilation for thoracic surgery may have increased airway pressure and a greater chance of ventilator induced lung injury. Recently, protective lung ventilation has been applied to patients undergoing one ung ventilation during thoracic surgery. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the difference in the degree of pulmonary oxygenation and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in hypercapnia induced by controlling the respiratory rate with a constant tidal volume.
Ventilatory Responses to Hypercapnic and Hypoxic Conditions in Hyperventilants
Hyperventilation SyndromeHypercapnia1 moreFor almost a century, many hypotheses have converged on the idea of altered chemosensitivity in patients suffering from hyperventilation syndrome (HVS). Given the evolution of current technical equipment and the ability to maximise true positives in HVS ( using the revised hyperventilation provocation test), it seems reasonable to investigate central and peripheral chemosensitivities in HVS subjects.
High Flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy in Perioperative Period of the Adult With Hypercapnic and Hypoxemic...
Acute Respiratory Failure With HypercapniaThe purpose of this study is to determine the impact of hign-flow nasal therapy on the adult with hypercapnia and hpoxemia respiratory faliure in comparison with standard oxygen therapy ang noninvasive ventilation.
Alveolar Recruitment Maneuver During Cesarean Section Improves Lung Compliance
Decreased Lung ComplianceHypoxia3 moreThe investigators tested the hypothesis that alveolar recruitment maneuver during cesarean section and in women under general anesthesia improves lung compliance and gas exchange. The investigators applied recruitment maneuver and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) 8 cmH2O. The maximum alveolar pressure limit (Ppeak)was 45 cmH2O during the recruitment maneuver. The primary end point of the study is the improvement of the lung compliance measured as volume difference/pressure difference (dv/dp) or ml/cmH2O
Permissive Hypercapnia During One Lung Ventilation: Impact on Right Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic...
AnesthesiaInvestigators studied 15 patients scheduled for pulmonary resection through thoracotomy. Initial tidal volume (VT) 10ml kg-1 was reduced to 8ml kg-1 after one lung ventilation (OLV) and the rate adjusted to maintain partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) 30-35 mm Hg. Data were obtained at: T1, 15 min post establishing OLV with normocapnia, T2, 15 min post establishing OLV with hypercapnia (PaCO2 7.98kPa (60mmHg) and 9.31kPa (70mmHg) and pH >7.1), and T3, 15 min after resuming OLV with normocapnia. One-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA), with post hoc Dunnet´s test were used for analysis. A P value < 0.05 is considered statistically significant.
Nasopharyngeal Airway Facilitate Transnasal Humidified Rapid Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange
HypoxiaHypercapniaFor performing transnasal humidified rapid insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE), jaw-thrust maneuver have to maintain to make sure the airway open and the CO2 clearance during apnoea. The objective of present study is to prove that nasopharyngeal airway facilitate THRIVE and no need jaw-thrust maneuver and maintain the similar PO2 and PCO2 during apnoea.
Effect of Postextubation High-Flow Nasal Cannula vs Noninvasive Ventilation in Patients With Hypercapnic...
High-Flow Nasal CannulaCOPDTo test if high-flow conditioned oxygen therapy is noninferior to NIV for preventing postextubation respiratory failure and reintubation in patients with hypercapnic COPD, investigators plan to conduct the participants level, 1:1 randomized trial at the respiratory ICU. Participants were randomized to undergo either high-flow conditioned oxygen therapy or noninvasive mechanical ventilation after extubation. Primary outcomes were reintubation and postextubation respiratory failure within 72 hours. Secondary outcomes included length of RICU stay after extubation and mortality; partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide.
Efficacy of Volume Ventilation in Patients With Acute Respiratory Failure at Risk of Obstructive...
Acute Respiratory FailureHypercapnic Respiratory Failure5 moreThis study compares a volume targeted pressure support non-invasive ventilation with an automatic PEP regulation (AVAPS-AE mode) to a pressure support non-invasive ventilation (S/T mode) in patients with acute hypercapnic respiratory failure with acidosis. This study focuses on patients at risk of obstructive apneas or obesity-hypoventilation syndrom (BMI≥30 kg/m²). Half of participants (33 patients) will receive non invasive ventilation with AVAPS-AE mode, the other half will receive non-invasive ventilation with S/T mode.
