effect of trigger sensitivity on redistribution of ventilation during pressure support ventilation detected by electrical impedance tomography
نویسندگان
چکیده
conclusions pressure support ventilation, but not spontaneous breathing, induces a significant redistribution of ventilation towards the ventral region. the sensitivity of the support trigger appears to influence the distribution of ventilation only during the early phase of inspiration. background in supine position, pressure support ventilation causes a redistribution of ventilation towards the ventral regions of the lung. theoretically, a less sensitive support trigger would cause the patient to breathe more actively, potentially attenuating the effect of positive pressure ventilation. objectives to quantify the effect of trigger setting, we assessed redistribution of ventilation during pressure support ventilation (psv) using electrical impedance tomography (eit). patients and methods with approval from the local ethics committee, six orthopedic patients were enrolled. all patients had general anesthesia with a laryngeal mask airway and a standardized anesthetic regimen (sufentanil, propofol and sevoflurane). pressure support trigger settings varied between 2 and 15 l/minute and compared to unassisted spontaneous breathing. from eit data, the center of ventilation (cov), the fraction of the total ventilation per region of interest (roi) and intratidal gas distribution were calculated. results at all trigger settings, pressure support ventilation caused a significant ventral shift of the center of ventilation compared with during spontaneous breathing, confirmed by the analysis by regions of interest. during spontaneous breathing, cov was not different from baseline values obtained before induction of anesthesia. during psv, the intratidal regional gas distribution (itv-analysis) revealed subtle changes during the early inspiratory phase not detected by the cov-analysis.

متن کاملElectrical Impedance Tomography During Mechanical Ventilation.
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive, non-radiologic imaging modality that may be useful for the quantification of lung disorders and titration of mechanical ventilation. The principle of operation is based on changes in electrical conductivity that occur as a function of changes in lung volume during ventilation. EIT offers potentially important benefits over standard imaging...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of pressure support ventilation and volume assured pressure support ventilation on weaning patients off mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery
Background: Weaning from mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit is an important step in the treatment process. More patients in less than 6 hours after cardiac surgery can be separated from mechanical ventilation and extubated. However, 20-40% of patients after cardiac surgery, due to dysfunctional ventilator weaning response (DVWR), still remain under mechanical ventilation. Therefo...

متن کاملSpurious lung perfusion ventilation defect on planar ventilation-perfusion scan detected by SPECT imaging
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a preventable cause of morbidity and mortality which needs prompt recognition. Ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan is a well-established diagnostic test for evaluation of suspected PE. We report a 32-year-old woman with history of rheumatologic disease and acute dyspnea, who was referred for V/Q scintigraphy. The planar images revealed multiple mismatched defects through...
متن کاملElectrical impedance tomography as ventilation monitoring in ICU patients
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT), as a monitoring tool of regional lung ventilation, is radiation-free imaging with high temporal resolution. The most important purpose of EIT is to visualize the distribution of tidal volume in different lung regions especially between dependent (dorsal in supine patients) and non-dependent (ventral in supine patients) regions. Many clinical studies evalua...
