Post-extubation respiratory failure requiring reintubation in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) results in significant morbidity. Data in the pediatric population comparing various therapeutic respiratory modalities for avoiding reintubation is lacking. Our objective was to compare therapeutic respiratory modalities following extubation from mechanical ventilation. About 491 children admitted to a single-center PICU requiring mechanical ventilation from January 2010 through December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Therapeutic respiratory support assisted in avoiding reintubation in the majority of patients initially extubated to room air or nasal cannula with high-flow nasal cannula (80%) or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (100%). Patients requiring therapeutic respiratory support had longer PICU LOS (10.92 vs 6.91 days, P-value = .0357) and hospital LOS (16.43 vs 10.20 days, P-value = .0250). Therapeutic respiratory support following extubation can assist in avoiding reintubation. Those who required therapeutic respiratory support experienced a significantly longer PICU and hospital LOS. Further prospective clinical trials are warranted.

AbstractAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a fatal condition with insufficiently clarified etiology. Supportive care for severe hypoxemia remains the mainstay of essential interventions for ARDS. In recent years, adequate ventilation to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) as well as lung-protective mechanical ventilation has an increasing attention in ARDS.Ventilation-perfusion mismatch may augment severe hypoxemia and inspiratory drive and consequently induce P-SILI. Respiratory drive and effort must also be carefully monitored to prevent P-SILI. Airway occlusion pressure (P0.1) and airway pressure deflection during an end-expiratory airway occlusion (Pocc) could be easy indicators to evaluate the respiratory drive and effort. Patient-ventilator dyssynchrony is a time mismatching between patient’s effort and ventilator drive. Although it is frequently unrecognized, dyssynchrony can be associated with poor clinical outcomes. Dyssynchrony includes trigger asynchrony, cycling asynchrony, and flow delivery mismatch. Ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD) is a form of iatrogenic injury from inadequate use of mechanical ventilation. Excessive spontaneous breathing can lead to P-SILI, while excessive rest can lead to VIDD. Optimal balance between these two manifestations is probably associated with the etiology and severity of the underlying pulmonary disease.High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) are non-invasive techniques for supporting hypoxemia. While they are beneficial as respiratory supports in mild ARDS, there can be a risk of delaying needed intubation. Mechanical ventilation and ECMO are applied for more severe ARDS. However, as with HFNC/NPPV, inappropriate assessment of breathing workload potentially has a risk of delaying the timing of shifting from ventilator to ECMO. Various methods of oxygen administration in ARDS are important. However, it is also important to evaluate whether they adequately reduce the breathing workload and help to improve ARDS.

Abstract Background Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) has been increasingly used in the management of respiratory failure in intensive care unit (ICU). Aim of the Work is to compare the efficacy and resource consumption of NIPPMV delivered through face mask against invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) delivered by endotracheal tube in the management of patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). Patients and Methods This prospective randomized controlled study included 78 adults with acute respiratory failure who were admitted to the intensive care unit. The enrolled patients were randomly allocated to receive either noninvasive ventilation or conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Results Severity of illness, measured by the simplified acute physiologic score 3 (SAPS 3), were comparable between the two patient groups with no significant difference between them. Both study groups showed a comparable steady improvement in PaO2:FiO2 values, indicating that NIPPV is as effective as CMV in improving the oxygenation of patients with ARF. The PaCO2 and pH values gradually improved in both groups during the 48 hours of ventilation. 12 hours after ventilation, NIPPMV group showed significantly more improvement in PaCO2 and pH than the CMV group. The respiratory acidosis was corrected in the NIPPV group after 24 hours of ventilation compared with 36 hours in the CMV group. NIPPV in this study was associated with a lower frequency of complications than CMV, including ventilator acquired pneumonia (VAP), sepsis, renal failure, pulmonary embolism, and pancreatitis. However, only VAP showed a statistically significant difference. Patients who underwent NIPPV in this study had lower mortality, and lower ventilation time and length of ICU stay, compared with patients on CMV. Intubation was required for less than a third of patients who initially underwent NIV. Conclusion Based on our study findings, NIPPV appears to be a potentially effective and safe therapeutic modality for managing patients with ARF.

Ventilator Settings

Respiratory complaints are common conditions for children to present to emergency departments. Typically, patients respond to simple supportive treatment, whether it is airway clearance therapy, oxygen therapy, or bronchodilators. When these patients are critically ill, they often require aggressive oxygenation/ventilation with noninvasive strategies, or even tracheal intubation. The use of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation has led to a significant reduction in the necessity for endotracheal intubation in children. The emergency physician should be familiar with the indications and appropriate application of these modalities. Furthermore, when patients require invasive mechanical ventilation, the emergency physician should have an understanding of initial ventilator settings, troubleshooting alarms, and an approach to the decompensating pediatric ventilated patient.

The case illustrates the approach to an intubated patient on mechanical ventilation with desaturation and clinical deterioration. Included is a list of potential etiologies, including airway obstruction, pneumothorax, mucus plug/atelectasis, aspiration or infection, and pulmonary embolus as well as a description of how to systematically evaluate these patients. Various imaging modalities are reviewed, including the findings of a chest X-ray and results of a limited bedside ultrasound. The case highlights the potential development of a delayed pneumothorax or hemothorax, despite an initially normal chest radiograph, particularly with the addition of positive pressure ventilation. The case highlights the importance of the focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) exam.

We hypothesized that episodic hypoxia (EH) leads to alterations in chemoreflex characteristics that might promote the development of central apnea in sleeping humans. We used nasal noninvasive positive pressure mechanical ventilation to induce hypocapnic central apnea in 11 healthy participants during stable nonrapid eye movement sleep before and after an exposure to EH, which consisted of fifteen 1-min episodes of isocapnic hypoxia (mean O2 saturation/episode: 87.0 ± 0.5%). The apneic threshold (AT) was defined as the absolute measured end-tidal Pco2 (PetCO2) demarcating the central apnea. The difference between the AT and baseline PetCO2 measured immediately before the onset of mechanical ventilation was defined as the CO2 reserve. The change in minute ventilation (V̇I) for a change in PetCO2 (ΔV̇I/ ΔPetCO2) was defined as the hypocapnic ventilatory response. We studied the eupneic PetCO2, AT PetCO2, CO2 reserve, and hypocapnic ventilatory response before and after the exposure to EH. We also measured the hypoxic ventilatory response, defined as the change in V̇I for a corresponding change in arterial O2 saturation (ΔV̇I/ΔSaO2) during the EH trials. V̇I increased from 6.2 ± 0.4 l/min during the pre-EH control to 7.9 ± 0.5 l/min during EH and remained elevated at 6.7 ± 0.4 l/min the during post-EH recovery period ( P < 0.05), indicative of long-term facilitation. The AT was unchanged after EH, but the CO2 reserve declined significantly from −3.1 ± 0.5 mmHg pre-EH to −2.3 ± 0.4 mmHg post-EH ( P < 0.001). In the post-EH recovery period, ΔV̇I/ΔPetCO2 was higher compared with the baseline (3.3 ± 0.6 vs. 1.8 ± 0.3 l·min−1·mmHg−1, P < 0.001), indicative of an increased hypocapnic ventilatory response. However, there was no significant change in the hypoxic ventilatory response (ΔV̇I/ΔSaO2) during the EH period itself. In conclusion, despite the presence of ventilatory long-term facilitation, the increase in the hypocapnic ventilatory response after the exposure to EH induced a significant decrease in the CO2 reserve. This form of respiratory plasticity may destabilize breathing and promote central apneas.
