Objective To investigate the effectiveness of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation( NPPV) in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( AECOPD) complicated with severe type Ⅱ respiratory failure.Methods 37 patients who were admitted fromJanuary 2008 to June 2009 due to AECOPD complicated with severe type Ⅱ respiratory failure and had received NPPV therapy were enrolled as a NPPV group. Another similar 42 cases who had not received NPPV therapy served as control. All subjects received standard medication therapy according to the guideline. Arterial blood gases before and after treatment, the duration of hospitalization and intubation rate were observed. Results The arterial pH, PaO2 ,and PaCO2 improved significantly after treatment as compared with baseline in both groups ( P lt; 0. 05) .Compared with the control group, the average duration of hospitalization was significantly shorter ( 10 ±5 vs.19 ±4 days, P lt;0. 05) and the intubation rate was significantly lower ( 2. 7% vs. 16. 7% , P lt;0. 05) in the NPPV group. Conclusion The use of NPPV in AECOPD patients complicated with severe type Ⅱ respiratory failure is effective in improving arterial blood gases, reducing the duration of hospitalization and intubation rate.
Abstract： Objective To analyze risk factors associated with postoperative respiratory failure in patients with valvular surgery. Methods Between January 2001 and November 2010, clinical data of 618 patients with 339 males and 279 fameles at age of 10-74（44.01±13.95）years,undergoing valvular operations were investigated retrospectively. We divided the patients into two groups according to the presence （74 patients）or absence（544 patients）of postoperative respiratory failure. Its risk factors were evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results The hospital mortality rate of valvular surgery was 6.1%（38/618）.The morbidity rate of respiratory failure was 12.0%（74/618） with hospital mortality rate at 17.6%（13/74） which was significantly higher than those patients without postoperative respiratory failure at 4.6%（25/544, χ2=18.994, P=0.000）. Univariate analysis showed age＞ 65 years（P=0.005）, New York Heart Association（NYHA）classⅣ（P=0.014）, election fraction＜ 50.0%（P=0.003）, cardiopulmonary bypass time＞ 3 h（P=0.001）, aortic cross clamping time＞ 2 h（P=0.008）, concomitant operation（ valvular operation with coronary artery bypass grafting, Bentall or radiofrequency ablation maze operation（P=0.000）, reoperation（P=0.012）, postoperative complications （P=0.000）, and blood transfusion＞ 2 000 ml（P=0.000） were important risk factors for postoperative respiratory failure. Multivariate logistic regression showed that concomitant operation（P=0.003）, reoperation（P=0.010）, postoperative complications（P=0.000）, and blood transfusion＞2 000 ml（P=0.012）were significant independent predictive risk factors. Conclusion This study suggest that patients with predictive risk factors of postoperative respiratory failure need more carefully treated. The morbidity of these patients would be reduced through improving perioperative management, shortening cardiopulmonary bypass time and reducing postoperative complications.
Objective To formulate an evidence-based position program for a ventilation patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Based on fully assessing the patient’s conditions, the clinical problems were put forward according to PICO principles. Such database as The Cochrane Library (2005 to January 2011), DARE (March 2011), CCTR (March 2011), MEDLINE (1996 to January 2011) and CNKI (1979 to January 2011) were retrieved to collect high quality clinical evidence, and then the optimum nursing program was designed in line with patient’s conditions and relatives’ willingness. Results Three meta-analyses, three randomized controlled trials, one systematic review and one anterior-posterior self-control study were included. The available clinical evidence displayed that: a) the prone position adopting earlier, especially for patients with bilateral lungs or left lung functional disorder, was propitious to effectively improve the oxygenation condition and reduce the incidence of ventilator induced lung injury (VILI); b) The long-term prone position could increase the risk of pressure sore; c) The prone position could prolong the survival time, but there was no enough evidence to prove that it could obviously decrease the mortality rate of ARDS. So finally a nursing plan was made in combination with literature evidence and patient’s condition: adopting the prone position after onset within 24 to 36 hours, and enhancing the skin nursing to prevent pressure sore at the same time. After 4-week comprehensive therapy and prone position ventilation, the patient got obvious alleviated in oxygenation, with SpO 2 up to 90% to 100%, stable vital signs, and no more VILI and pressure sore. And then the patient was stopped applying ventilator, and transferred to a general ward for further treatment. Conclusion The earlier adoption of prone position ventilation for severe ARDS can improve oxygenation and reduce ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and VILI, but whether it can prolong survival time and reduce mortality for mild ARDS or not still has to be proved with more high quality evidence in the future.
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.
Objective To evaluate the rescue intubation induced by ketamine and midazolam in patients with acute respiratory failure.Methods 81 patients with acute respiratory failure admitted between June 2010 and June 2012 were recruited in the study. They were randomly divided to a MF group to receive 0. 05 mg/kg of midazolam + 1 to 2 μg/kg of fentanyl ( n =41) , and aMK group to received 0. 05 mg/kg of midazolam + 0. 5 to 1 mg/kg of ketamine ( n =40) for rescue intubation. The APACHEⅡ score on initial24 hours after admission in ICU, length of ICU stay, and 28-day mortality were recorded. The differences in arterial blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate, and blood oxygen saturation before intubation and 10 minutes after intubation were compared. Incidences of hypotension and other adverse events and difficult intubation were also recorded.Results The midazolamdose in the MK group was significantly less than that in the MF group ( P lt; 0. 01) . The blood pressure in both groups decreased. The systolic blood pressure dropped most significantly in the MF group ( P lt;0. 05) . The incidence of hypotension was 41. 5% in the MF group, significantly higher than that in the MK group ( 20. 0% , P lt;0. 05) . The incidence of hypotension had no correlation with midazolamdosage ( P gt;0. 05) . There was no significant difference in adverse events except for the arrhythmia between two groups. The length of ICU stay and 28-day mortality were similar in both groups ( P gt; 0. 05) . The incidence of difficult tracheal intubation was nearly 50% in both groups.Conclusions In patients with respiratory failure, rescue intubation induced by ketamine can reduce the dose of midazolam and reduce the incidence of hypotension without more complications. The optimal dose of ketamine in induced tracheal intubation requires further study.
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of invasive-noninvasive sequential mechanical ventilation in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated by type Ⅱ respiratory failure. MethodsA total of 100 patients with COPD complicated with type Ⅱ respiratory failure from March 2013 to April 2014 were randomly divided into control group and study group (with 50 patients in each). While the control group was given continuous invasive ventilation treatment, the study group was treated with invasive-noninvasive sequential ventilation. The ventilation time, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) monitoring and hospitalization time, the serum concentrations of C-reactioin protein (CRP) before and after treatment and the ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and hospital mortality rate were observed and compared between the two groups. ResultsFor patients in the study group, ICU monitoring time, ventilation time and hospitalization time were (9.4±8.1), (10.3±5.8), and (14.7±8.2) days, respectively, significantly shorter than those in the control group[(17.5±10.8), (15.2±7.7), and (22.8±7.4) days] (P<0.05). The incidence of VAP and nosocomial VAP mortality in the study group were 4.0% and 2.0% respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group (22.0% and 20.0%), and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionIn the clinical treatment of COPD patients with type Ⅱ respiratory failure, invasive-noninvasive sequential ventilation treatment is effective in shortening the duration of ventilation and hospitalization time, controlling the incidence of VAP, and reducing the mortality rate, which is worthy of clinical popularization.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) combined with fiberoptic bronchoscopy(FB) on acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive puhmonary disease (AECOPD) patients with acute respiratory failure. MethodsA prospective study was conducted on the AECOPD patients with respiratory failure in respiratory intensive care unit of Tangdu Hospital of Fourth Military Medicine University from February 2010 to February 2011.They were randomly divided into a case group and a control group.The case group was administrated FB and lavage after one hour of NIPPV treatment.The control group was administrated NIPPV without FB and lavage.Other treatment regimen was the same in two groups. ResultsThere were 51 subjects recruited in the study, 25 subjects in the case group and 26 subjects in the control group.All variables at baseline were matched (P > 0.05).All variables improved after one hour of NIPPV before FB, without significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05).During the period of FB, heart rate in the case group was faster than that in the control group (P < 0.05), and other variables were not significantly different between two groups (P > 0.05).Both groups received NIPPV for one hour after FB, the variables including heart rate, respiratory rate, pH, PaO2, PaCO2 were statistically significant between two groups(P < 0.05).At the time of 24 hours after FB, the variables including mean arterial pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, pH, PaO2 and PaCO2 in the case group were nearly recovered, and differences between two groups were significant (P < 0.05).The positive rate of sputum culture was significantly higher in the case group than that in the control group[88.0%(22/25) vs.58.6%(14/26)].Success rate in the case group were obviously superior to that in control group.The cases of failure, death and refusing in the case group were lower than those in the control group.Complications in two groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05).There was not serious complication such as hear arrest, hemoptysis and apnea during the process of NIPPV combined with early FB. Conclusion It deserves to be used in clinic because of the safety, efficacy and feasible for most of AECOPD patients through NIPPV combined with early FB.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the reliability,validity and feasibility of a patient-reported outcomes (PRO) scale in the subjects with respiratory failure. Methods364 patients with chronic respiratory failure and 97 healthy subjects were face-to-face interviewed by well-trained investigators,and the data of respiratory failure -PRO instrument were collected.
