In the 2014 PROtective Ventilation using HIgh versus LOw positive end-expiratory pressure (PROVHILO) trial, intraoperative low tidal volume ventilation with high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP = 12 cm H2O) and lung recruitment maneuvers did not decrease postoperative pulmonary complications when compared to low PEEP (0-2 cm H2O) approach without recruitment breaths. However, effects of intraoperative PEEP on lung compliance remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that higher PEEP leads to a dominance of intratidal overdistension, whereas lower PEEP results in intratidal recruitment/derecruitment (R/D). To test our hypothesis, we used the volume-dependent elastance index %E2, a respiratory parameter that allows for noninvasive and radiation-free assessment of dominant overdistension and intratidal R/D. We compared the incidence of intratidal R/D, linear expansion, and overdistension by means of %E2 in a subset of the PROVHILO cohort.
In 36 patients from 2 participating centers of the PROVHILO trial, we calculated respiratory system elastance (E), resistance (R), and %E2, a surrogate parameter for intratidal overdistension (%E2 > 30%) and R/D (%E2 < 0%). To test the main hypothesis, we compared the incidence of intratidal overdistension (primary end point) and R/D in higher and lower PEEP groups, as measured by %E2.
E was increased in the lower compared to higher PEEP group (18.6 [16…22] vs 13.4 [11.0…17.0] cm H2O·L; P < .01). %E2 was reduced in the lower PEEP group compared to higher PEEP (-15.4 [-28.0…6.5] vs 6.2 [-0.8…14.0] %; P < .05). Intratidal R/D was increased in the lower PEEP group (61% vs 22%; P = .037). The incidence of intratidal overdistension did not differ significantly between groups (6%).
During mechanical ventilation with protective tidal volumes in patients undergoing open abdominal surgery, lung recruitment followed by PEEP of 12 cm H2O decreased the incidence of intratidal R/D and did not worsen overdistension, when compared to PEEP ≤2 cm H2O.
在2014年的高呼气末正压与低呼气末正压保护性通气(PROVHILO)试验中,与采用低呼气末正压(0 - 2 cmH₂O)且无肺复张通气策略的方法相比,术中采用低潮气量通气联合高呼气末正压(呼气末正压 = 12 cmH₂O)及肺复张策略并未降低术后肺部并发症的发生率。然而,术中呼气末正压对肺顺应性的影响仍知之甚少。我们推测,较高的呼气末正压会导致潮气量内过度扩张占主导,而较低的呼气末正压会导致潮气量内复张/萎陷(R/D)。为验证我们的假设,我们使用了容量依赖性弹性指数%E2,这是一种呼吸参数,可用于无创且无辐射地评估主导性过度扩张和潮气量内R/D。我们在PROVHILO队列的一个亚组中,通过%E2比较了潮气量内R/D、线性扩张和过度扩张的发生率。
在来自PROVHILO试验2个参与中心的36例患者中,我们计算了呼吸系统弹性(E)、阻力(R)和%E2,%E2是潮气量内过度扩张(%E2 > 30%)和R/D(%E2 < 0%)的替代参数。为验证主要假设,我们比较了通过%E2测量的高呼气末正压组和低呼气末正压组中潮气量内过度扩张(主要终点)和R/D的发生率。
与高呼气末正压组相比,低呼气末正压组的E升高(18.6 [16…22] vs 13.4 [11.0…17.0] cmH₂O·L;P <.01)。与高呼气末正压组相比,低呼气末正压组的%E2降低(-15.4 [-28.0…6.5] vs 6.2 [-0.8…14.0] %;P <.05)。低呼气末正压组的潮气量内R/D增加(61% vs 22%;P =.037)。两组间潮气量内过度扩张的发生率无显著差异(6%)。
在接受开腹手术患者进行保护性潮气量机械通气期间,与呼气末正压≤2 cmH₂O相比,先进行肺复张然后采用12 cmH₂O呼气末正压可降低潮气量内R/D的发生率,且不会加重过度扩张。
