  • Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease: A Systematic Review

    Objective To determine the efficacy and prognosis of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) in exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Trials were located through electronic searches of MEDLINE, EMBASE, Springer, and Foreign Journals Integration System (from the start date to March 2008). We also checked the bibliographies of retrieved articles. Statistical analysis was performed with The Cochrane Collaboration’s software RevMan 4.2.10. Results A total of 19 trials involving 1 236 patients were included. Results showed that: (1) NPPV vs. conventional therapy: NPPV was superior to conventional therapy in terms of intubation rate (RR 0.36, 95%CI 0.27 to 0.49), failure rate (RR 0.62, 95%CI 0.43 to 0.90), and mortality (RR 0.49, 95%CI 0.34 to 0.69). The length of hospital stay was shorter in the NPPV group compared with the conventional group (WMD – 3.83, 95%CI – 5.78 to – 1.89), but the length of ICU stay was similar. The changes of PaO2, PaCO2, and pH were much more obvious in the NPPV group compared with the conventional group. The change of respiratory rate was more significant in the NPPV group compared with the conventional group (WMD – 3.75, 95%CI – 5.48 to – 2.03). At discharge and follow-up, there were no significant differences in FEV1, pH, PaCO2, PaO2, and vital capacity between the two groups. (2) NPPV vs. invasive ventilation: the mortality was similar between the two groups. The incidence of complications was lower in the NPPV group compared with the invasive group (RR 0.38, 95%CI 0.20 to 0.73). The length of ICU stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, and weaning time were shorter in the NPPV group than those of the invasive group. At discharge and follow-up, clinical conditions were similar between the two groups. Conclusion  The limited current evidence showed that NPPV was superior to conventional therapy in improving intubation rate, mortality, short term of blood-gas change, the change of respiratory rate; and superior to invasive ventilation in the length of hospital stay and the incidence of complication. There were no difference among them in discharge and follow-up.

  • Effect of Different Inspiratory Rise Time on Work of Breathing in Patients with Acute Exacerbation of COPD during Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

    Objective To investigate the effects of different inspiratory rise time during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV) on work of breathing in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) . Methods Eleven patients with acute exacerbation of COPD received different inspiratory rise time ( 0. 1sec, 0. 3sec, 0. 5sec) during NPPV. The changes of inspiratory muscle effort and breathing pattern of the patients were observed. Results The average respiratory rate,minute ventilation, and tidal volume were higher during NPPV compared with spontaneous breathing. But the changes of average minute ventilation and tidal volume were not significant ( P gt; 0. 05) . The pressure time product ( PTP) , transdiaphragmatic pressure ( Pdi) , and work of breathing of inspiratory muscle reduced significantly during different inspiratory rise time as compared with spontaneous breathing ( P lt;0. 01) . PTP,Pdi, and work of breathing reduced 59. 2% , 62. 7% , and 49% respectively when inspiratory rise time was 0. 1sec. They reduced more significantly during inspiratory rise time of 0. 1sec. Conclusions The present study confirms NPPV can unload inspiratory muscles in patients with acute exacerbation of COPD. It is more effective to reduce inspiratory load when inspiratory rise time is set at 0. 1sec while the patients feel most comfortable.

  • Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome:A Randomized Controlled Study

    Objective To evaluate the efficiency and associated factors of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation( NPPV) in the treatment of acute lung injury( ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome( ARDS) .Methods Twenty-eight patients who fulfilled the criteria for ALI/ARDS were enrolled in the study. The patients were randomized to receive either noninvasive positive pressure ventilation( NPPV group) or oxygen therapy through a Venturi mask( control group) . All patients were closely observed and evaluated during observation period in order to determine if the patients meet the preset intubation criteria and the associated risk factors. Results The success rate in avoiding intubation in the NPPV group was 66. 7%( 10/15) , which was significantly lower than that in the control group ( 33. 3% vs. 86. 4% , P = 0. 009) . However, there was no significant difference in the mortality between two groups( 7. 7% vs.27. 3% , P =0. 300) . The incidence rates of pulmonary bacteria infection and multiple organ damage were significantly lower in the NPPV success subgroup as compared with the NPPV failure group( 2 /10 vs. 4/5, P =0. 01;1 /10 vs. 3/5, P = 0. 03) . Correlation analysis showed that failure of NPPV was significantly associated with pulmonary bacterial infection and multiple organ damage( r=0. 58, P lt;0. 05; r =0. 53, P lt;0. 05) . Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that pulmonary bacterial infection was an independent risk factor associated with failure of NPPV( r2 =0. 33, P =0. 024) . In the success subgroup, respiratory rate significantly decreased( 29 ±4 breaths /min vs. 33 ±5 breaths /min, P lt; 0. 05) and PaO2 /FiO2 significantly increased ( 191 ±63 mmHg vs. 147 ±55 mmHg, P lt;0. 05) at the time of 24 hours after NPPV treatment as compared with baseline. There were no significant change after NPPV treatment in heart rate, APACHEⅡ score, pH and PaCO2 ( all P gt;0. 05) . On the other hand in the failure subgroup, after 24 hours NPPV treatment, respiratory rate significantly increased( 40 ±3 breaths /min vs. 33 ±3 breaths /min, P lt;0. 05) and PaO2 /FiO2 showed a tendency to decline( 98 ±16 mmHg vs. 123 ±34 mmHg, P gt; 0. 05) . Conclusions In selected patients, NPPV is an effective and safe intervention for ALI/ARDS with improvement of pulmonary oxygenation and decrease of intubation rate. The results of current study support the use of NPPV in ALI/ARDS as the firstline choice of early intervention with mechanical ventilation.

  • Application of Dexmedetomidine Hydrochloride in Sedation Practices during NPPV for Patients with Acute Exacerbations of COPD and Respiratory Failure

    Objective To investigate the feasibility of dexmedetomidine hydrochloride in sedation practices during NPPV for patients with acute exacerbation of COPD ( AECOPD) and respiratory failure. Methods 50 patients with AECOPD and respiratory failure, admitted in ICU between January 2011 and April 2012, were divide into an observation group and a control group. All patients received conventional treatment and noninvasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV) . Meanwhile in the observation group, dexmedetomidine hydrochloride ( 1 μg/kg) was intravenously injected within 10 minutes, then maintained using a micropump by 0.1 ~0. 6 μg·kg- 1 ·h- 1 to maintaining Ramsay Sedation Scale ( RSS) score ranged from 2 to 4. The patients’compliance to NPPV treatment ( conversion rate to invasive ventilation) and ICU stay were compared between two groups. Heart rate,mean arterial pressure, respiratory rate, and arterial blood gas ( pH, PaO2 , PaCO2 ) before and 24 hours after treatment were also compared. Results After 24 hours treatment, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, respiratory rate, and arterial blood gas were all improved in two groups, while the improvements were more remarkable in the observation group. The conversion rate to invasive ventilation ( 4% vs. 16% ) and ICUstay [ ( 5.47 ±3.19) d vs. ( 8.78 ±3.45) d] were lower in the observation group than those in the control group. ( P lt;0.05) . Conclusion Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride may serve as a safe and effective sedative drug during NPPV in patients with AECOPD and respiratory failure.

  • Physiological Effects of Oxygen Injection Site during Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

    Objective To investigate the physiological effects of different oxygen injection site on ventilatory status and oxygenation during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV) with portable noninvasive ventilators. Methods A prospective crossover randomized study was performed. Oxygen injection site was randomized into the outlet of the ventilator, the connection site between mask and circuit, and the mask under the condition of leak port immobilized in the mask. Oxygen flow was retained in the baseline level at the initial 5 to 10 minutes, and adjusted to obtain arterial oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry ( SpO2 ) ranging from 90% to 95% after SpO2 remains stable. SpO2 at the initial 5 to 10 minutes, oxygen flow, ventilatory status, oxygenation, hemodynamics and dyspnea indexes at0. 5 hour, 1 hour, and 2 hours of NPPV were compared between different oxygen injection sites. Results 10 patients were recruited into the study. Under the condition of the same oxygen flow, SpO2 with oxygen injection site in the outlet of the ventilator was significantly higher than that with oxygen injection site in the connection site between mask and circuit [ ( 98.9 ±0.9) % vs. ( 96.9 ±1.1) % , P =0. 003] , whereas SpO2 with oxygen injection site in the connection site between mask and circuit was significantly higher than that with oxygen injection site in the mask [ ( 96.9 ±1.1) % vs. ( 94.1 ±1.6) %, P = 0.000] . Oxygen flow with oxygen injection site in the mask was statistically higher than that with oxygen injection site at other sites ( P lt; 0.05) . Arterial oxygen tension/ oxygen flow with oxygen injection site in the outlet of the ventilator was significantly higher than that with oxygen injection site in the connection site between mask and circuit ( 67.9 ±31.1 vs. 37.0 ±15.0, P =0.007) , and than that with oxygen injection site in the mask ( 67.9 ± 31.1 vs. 25.0 ±9.1, P = 0.000) . pH, arterial carbon dioxide tension, hemodynamics and dyspnea indexes were not significantly different between different oxygen injection sites ( P gt; 0.05) .Conclusions When portable noninvasive ventilator was applied during NPPV, oxygen injection site significantly affects improvement of oxygenation, and shows a trend for affecting ventilatory status and work of breathing. When the leak port was immobilized in the mask, the nearer oxygen injection site approaches the outlet of the ventilator, the more easily oxygenation is improved and the lower oxygen flow is demanded.

  • Effects of Enteral Tube Feeding on Moderate AECOPD Patients Received Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation

    Objective To explore the effects of enteral tube feeding on moderate AECOPD patients who underwent noninvasive positive pressure ventilation ( NPPV) . Methods Sixty moderate AECOPD patients with NPPV admitted from January 2009 to April 2011 were recruited for the study. They were randomly divided into an enteral tube feeding group (n=30) received enteral tube feeding therapy, and an oral feeding group (n=30) received oral feeding therapy. Everyday nutrition intake and accumulative total nutrition intake in 7 days, plasma level of prealbumin and transferrin, success rate of weaning, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU stay, rate of trachea cannula, and mortality rate in 28 days were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the oral feeding group, the everyday nutrition intake and accumulative total nutrition intake in 7 days obviously increased (Plt;0.05) , while the plasma prealbumin [ ( 258.4 ±16.5) mg/L vs. (146.7±21.6) mg/L] and transferrin [ ( 2.8 ±0.6) g/L vs. ( 1.7 ±0.3) g/L] also increased significantly after 7 days in the enteral tube feeding group( Plt;0.05) . The success rate of weaning ( 83.3% vs. 70.0%) , the duration of mechanical ventilation [ 5. 6( 3. 2-8. 6) days vs. 8. 4( 4. 1-12. 3) days] , the length of ICU stay [ 9. 2( 7. 4-11. 8) days vs. 13. 6( 8.3-17. 2) days] , the rate of trachea cannula ( 16. 6% vs. 30. 0% ) , the mortality rate in 28 days ( 3. 3% vs. 10. 0% ) all had significant differences between the enteral tube feeding group and the oral feeding group. Conclusions For moderate AECOPD patients with NPPV, enteral tube feeding can obviously improve the condition of nutrition and increase the success rate of weaning, shorten the mechanical ventilation time and the mean stay in ICU, decrease the rate of trachea cannula and mortality rate in 28 days. Thus enteral tube feeding should be preferred for moderate AECOPD patients with NPPV.

  • Application of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation in Patients with Acute Left Heart Failure

    Objective To investigate the effects of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on patients with acute left heart failure. Methods Twenty patients with acute left heart failure diagnosed between September 2013 and July 2014 were randomized into treatment group (n=10) and control group (n=10). Both groups used conventional sedations, diuretics and drugs that strengthened the heart and dilated the vessels, while early use of NPPV was applied in the experimental group. Arterial blood gas analysis [pH value, pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2)], heart rate (HR), respiration, duration of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay and invasive mechanical ventilation, duration of overall mechanical ventilation, and success case numbers before and two hours after treatment were observed and analyzed. Results For the control group, two hours after treatment, PaO2 was (67.0±8.5) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), HR was (124±10) times/min, Respiration was (34±4) times/min, the duration of ICU stay was (6.0±1.1) days, invasive ventilation was for (32.0±3.1) hours, and the total time of mechanical ventilation was (32.0±3.1) hours. Those indexes for the treatment group two hours after treatment were: PaO2, (82.3±8.9) mm Hg; HR, (98±11) times/min; respiration, (24±4) times/min; the duration of ICU stay, (4.0±0.8) days; invasive ventilation time, (16.0±1.3) hours; the total time of mechanical ventilation, (26.0±1.8) hours. All the differences for each index between the two groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Early application of NPPV can rapidly relieve clinical symptoms and reduce the medical cost for patients with acute left heart failure.

    ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) combined with lung injury [acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)] in emergency treatment. MethodsFifty-six patients with SAP combined with ALI/ARDS treated between January 2013 and March 2015 were included in our study. Twenty-eight patients who underwent NPPV were designated as the treatment group, while the other 28 patients who did not undergo NPPV were regarded as the control group. Then, we observed patients' blood gas indexes before and three days after treatment. The hospital stay and mortality rate of the two groups were also compared. ResultsBefore treatment, there were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of pH value and arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) (P>0.05). Three days after treatment, blood pH value of the treatment group and the control group was 7.41±0.07 and 7.34±0.04, respectively, with a significant difference (P<0.05); the PaO2 value was respectively (60.60±5.11) and (48.40±3.57) mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), also with a significant difference (P<0.05). The hospital stay of the treatment group and the control group was (18.22±3.07) and (23.47±3.55) days with a significant difference (P<0.05); and the six-month mortality was 17% and 32% in the two groups without any significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionIt is effective to treat patients with severe acute pancreatitis combined with acute lung injury in emergency by noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.
