    Notes: Abstract Objectives To study the ability of different ventilatory approaches to keep the lung open. Design Different ventilatory patterns were applied in surfactant deficient lungs with PEEP set to achieve pre-lavage PaO2. Setting Experimental laboratory of a University Department of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care. Animals 15 anaesthetised piglets. Interventions One volume-controlled mode (L-IPPV201:1.5) and two pressure-controlled modes at 20 breaths per minute (bpm) and I:E ratios of 2:1 and 1.5:1 (L-PRVC202:1 and L-PRVC201.5:1), and two pressure-controlled modes at 60 bpm and I:E of 1:1 and 1:1.5 (L-PRVC601:1 and L-PRVC601:1.5) were investigated. The pressure-controlled modes were applied using “Pressure-Regulated Volume-Controlled Ventilation” (PRVC). Measurements and results Gas exchange, airway pressures, hemodynamics, FRC and intrathoracic fluid volumes were measured. Gas exchange was the same for all modes. FRC was 30% higher with all post-lavage settings. By reducing inspiratory time MPAW decreased from 25 cmH2O by 3 cmH2O with L-PRVC201.5:1 and L-PRVC601:1.5. End-inspiratory airway pressure was 29 cmH2O with L-PRVC201.5:1 and 40 cmH2O with L-IPPV201:1.5, while the other modes displayed intermediate values. End-inspiratory lung volume was 65 ml/kg with L-IPPV201:1.5, but it was reduced to 50 and 49 ml/kg with L-PRVC601:1 and L-PRVC601:1.5. Compliance was 16 and 18 ml/cmH2O with L-PRVC202:1 and L-PRVC201.5:1, while it was lower with L-IPPV201:1.5, L-PRVC601:1 and L-PRVC601:1.5. Oxygen delivery was maintained at prelavage level with L-PRVC201.5:1 (657 ml/min·m2), the other modes displayed reduced oxygen delivery compared with pre-lavage. Conclusion Neither the rapid frequency modes nor the low frequency volume-controlled mode kept the surfactant deficient lungs open. Pressure-controlled inverse ratio ventilation (20 bpm) kept the lungs open at reduced end-inspiratory airway pressure and hence reduced risk of barotrauma. Reducing I:E ratio in this latter modality from 2:1 to 1.5:1 further improved oxygen delivery.

    Notes: Abstract In 19 anesthetized piglets 3 ventilatory modes were studied after inducing pulmonary insufficiency by bronchoalveolar lavage by the method of Lachmann. The lavage model was considered suitable for reproduction of severe respiratory distress. This model was reproducible and stable with respect to alveolar collapse, decrease in static chest-lung compliance and increase in extravascular lung water. The ventilatory modes studied were volume-controlled intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV), pressure-controlled inverse ratio ventilation (IRV), and pressure-controlled high-frequency positive-pressure ventilation (HFPPV). The 3 ventilatory modes were used in random sequence for at least 30 min to produce a ventilatory steady state. Ventilation with no PEEP, permitting alveolar collapse, was interposed between each experimental mode. The ability to open collapsed alveoli, i.e. alveolar recruitment, was different. The recruitment rate for IPPV was 74%, but for IRV and HFPPV it was 95%, respectively. Although IRV provided the best PaO2, this was at the expense of high airway pressures with circulatory interference and reduced oxygen transport. In contrast to this, HFPPV provided lower airway pressures, less circulatory interference and improved oxygen transport. In the clinical setting there might be negative effects on vital organs and functions unless the ventilatory modes are continuously and cautiously adapted to the individual requirements in different phases of severe respiratory distress. Therefore, one ventilatory strategy could be to “open the airways” with IRV, but then switch to HFPPV in an attempt to maintain the airways open with lesser risk of barotrauma and with improved oxygen transport.

    Notes: Abstract Objectives: To characterize different modes of pressure- or volume-controlled mechanical ventilation with respect to their short-term effects on oxygen delivery (DO2). Furthermore to investigate whether such differences are caused by differences in pulmonary gas exchange or by airway-pressure-mediated effects on the central hemodynamics.Design: After inducing severe respiratory distress in piglets by removing surfactant, 5 ventilatory modes were randomly and sequentially applied to each animal.Setting: Experimental laboratory of a university department of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care.Animals: 15 piglets after repeated bronchoalveolar lavage.Interventions: Volume-controlled intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) with either 8 or 15 cmH2O PEEP; pressure-controlled inverse ratio ventilation (IRV); pressure-controlled high-frequency positive-pressure ventilation (HFPPV) and pressure-controlled high frequency ventilation with inspiratory pulses superimposed (combined high frequency ventilation, CHFV). The prefix (L) indicates that lavage has been performed.Measurements and results: Measurements of gas exchange, airway pressures, hemodynamics, functional residual capacity (using the SF6 method), intrathoracic fluid volumes (using a double-indicator dilution technique) and metabolism were performed during ventilatory and hemodynamic steady state. The peak inspiratory pressures (PIP) were significantly higher in the volume-controlled low frequency modes (43 cmH2O for L-IPPV-8 and L-IPPV-15) than in the pressure-controlled modes (39 cmH2O for L-IRV, 35 cmH2O for L-HFPPV and 33 cmH2O for L-CHFV, with PIP in the high-frequency modes being significantly lower than in inverse ratio ventilation). The mean airway pressure (MPAW) after lavage was highest with L-IRV (26 cmH2O). In the ventilatory modes with a PEEP〉8 cmH2O PaO2 did not differ significantly and beyond this “opening threshold” MPAW did not further improve PaO2. Central hemodynamics were depressed by increasing airway pressures. This is especially true for L-IRV in which we found the highest MAPW and at the same time the lowest stroke index (74% of IPPV).Conclusions: In this model, as far as oxygenation is concerned, it does not matter in which specific way the airway pressures are produced. As far as oxygen transport is concerned, i.e. aiming at increasing DO2, we conclude that optimizing the circulatory status must take into account the circulatory influence of different modes of positive pressure ventilation.
