Objective To investigate the effect of bilevel ventilation mode on blood gas and hemodynamics of patients with acute lung injury (ALI) by pulse indicator continuous cardiac output(PiCCO), and the clinical effect of this new ventilation mode on patients with ALI as well as its influence degree of circulatory system so that the cure rate of ALI can be improved. Methods There were 42 patients with ALI, 27 male and 15 female aged 15-75 years. According to the order of hospitalization, 40 patients (2 patients did not complete the study) were divided into two groups with 20 patients in each group. Bilevel ventilation group included the first 20 admitted patients. They were given bilevel ventilation support, using Support/Time(S/T) mode. The initial set of end inspiratory pressure (IPAP) was 8-10 cm H2O gradually increased to 14-20 cm H2O, which should be comfortable and appropriate for patients. The initial set of end expiratory pressure (EPAP) was 3-5 cm H2O gradually increased to 8-12 cm H2O. Fraction of inspired oxygen(FiO2) unchanged. Control group included the rest 20 admitted patients. They were given respiratory support, using Auxiliary/Control(A/C) mode followed by an increased positive endexpiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cm H2O,10 cm H2O,15 cm H2O,20 cm H2O. Each pressure kept 30 min. FiO2 unchanged. Indexes such as cardiac output (CO), systemic vascular resistance (SVR) etc were observed in both groups. Results There were 13 deaths in two groups, including 5 in bilevel ventilation group and 8 in control group. Seven cases died of multiple organ failure, 3 died of septic shock and 3 died of circulatory failure. Endotracheal intubation time (2.9±0.8 d vs. 4.2±0.9 d, t=7.737, P=0.006) and hospital stay (17.2±4.5 d vs. 18.5±3.6 d, t=2.558, P=0.039) in bilevel ventilation group were significantly shorter than those in control group. In control group, when PEEP ranged from 5 cm H2O to 15 cm H2O, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) and oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) gradually increased as PEEP increased (Plt;0.05); when PEEP increased to 20 cm H2O, CO decreased, SVR, pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and airway peak pressure (PIP) increased than those in range of 515 cm H2O (Plt;0.05). In bilevel ventilation group, PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 gradually increased as EPAP increased. When EPAP increased to 10 cm H2O, PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 increased to the maximum (Plt;0.05); PIP was significantly lower than that in control group (t=7.831, .P.=.0.000). Conclusion Giving bilevel ventilation treatment to patients with ALI/acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) can reduce the effects on respiratory and hemodynamic. PIP and the time of endotracheal intubation and hospital stay can be reduced without affecting hemodynamics.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of pressure control ventilation-volume guaranteed (PCV-VG) for patients undergoing da Vinci robotic-assisted pulmonary lobotomy. MethodA total of 40 patients undergoing Da Vinci robotic-assisted pulmonary lobotomy were randomly divided into two groups:a PCV-VG group (G group) and a volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) group (V group). There were 20 patients in each group with 13 males and 7 females at age of 49.0±5.5 years in the G group, 16 males and 4 females at age of 51.0±3.9 years in the V group. Haemodynamics indexes and oxygenation parameters were recorded at different times and compared between the two groups. ResultsDuring one-lung ventilation (OLV) period, the peak inspiratory pressure (Ppeak), respiratory index (RI) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) in the G group were statistically lower than those in the V group (P<0.05). While the Cdyn and inspired oxygen fraction(OI) were higher in the G group than those in the V group (P<0.05). ConclusionCompared with the traditional VCV ventilation mode, the PCV-VG ventilation mode improves Ppeak, Cdyn, OI, and RI of the patients undergoing da Vinci robotic-assisted pulmonary lobotomy.
Simulation of the human biological lung is a crucial method for medical professionals to learn and practice the use of new pulmonary interventional diagnostic and therapeutic devices. The study on ventilation effects of the simulation under positive pressure ventilation mode provide valuable guidance for clinical ventilation treatment. This study focused on establishing an electrical simulation ventilation model, which aims to address the complexities in parameter configuration and slow display of air pressure and airflow waveforms in simulating the human biological lung under positive pressure ventilation mode. A simulated ventilation experiment was conducted under pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC) positive pressure ventilation mode, and the resulting ventilation waveform was compared with that of normal adults. The experimental findings indicated that the average error of the main reference index moisture value was 9.8% under PRVC positive pressure ventilation mode, effectively simulating the ventilatory effect observed in normal adults. So the established electrical simulation ventilation model is feasible, and provides a foundation for further research on the simulation of human biological lung positive pressure ventilation experimental platform.
