Objective To observe the effects of peritoneal ventilation with pure oxygen in the rabbits with hypoxaemia and hypercapnia induced by mechanical controlled hypoventilation. Methods Sixteen rabbits were invasively ventilated after trachea incision. Hypoxaemia and hypercapnia were induced by hypoventilation which was implemented both by degrading ventilation parameters and respiratory depression induced by intravenous infusion of muscle relaxant. Then pure oxygen was insufflated into the peritoneal cavity and arterial blood gases were measured every 30 minutes for two hours. Results The PaO2 was ( 52. 50 ±3. 46) mmHg at baseline and increased to ( 76. 46 ±7. 79) mm Hg, ( 79. 62 ±9. 53) mm Hg,( 78. 54 ±7. 18) mmHg, and ( 81. 1 ±8. 3) mm Hg, respectively at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after the peritoneal ventilation with pure oxgen( all P lt; 0. 05) . Meanwhile PaCO2 was ( 63. 84 ±9. 09) mm Hg at baseline and ( 59. 84 ±14. 22) mmHg, ( 59. 16 ±15. 5) mmHg, ( 60. 02 ±7. 07) mmHg, and ( 61. 38 ±6. 56) mm Hg, respectively at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after the peritoneal ventilation with pure oxgen with no significant change( P gt;0. 05) . Conclusion Peritoneal ventilation can obviously improve hypoxaemia induced by mechanical controlled hypoventilation, whereas hypercapnia remains unchanged.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of arterial blood gas index control during invasive mechanical ventilation on prognosis in COPD patients with type Ⅱ respiratory failure. MethodsSeventy-six COPD patients with hypercapnic respiratory failure who underwent invasive mechanical ventilation were recruited in the study. The patients were divided into group A with conventional arterial blood gas index control [pH of 7.40±0.05,PaO2 of (70±5)mm Hg,PaCO2 of (55±5)mm Hg],and group B with low index control [pH of 7.35±0.05,PaO2 of (60±5)mm Hg,PaCO2 of (60±5)mm Hg]. Two groups were compared on the required parameters of invasive mechanical ventilation,the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation,the incidence rate of sequential therapy in noninvasive mechanical ventilation,ventilator associated pneumonia and secondary intubation,etc. ResultsThe required parameters of invasive mechanical ventilation in group B including tidal volume (VT) and pressure support (PS),the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation,the incidence rate of sequential therapy in noninvasive mechanical ventilation,ventilator associated pneumonia and secondary intubation were all significantly lower than those in group A (P<0.05). ConclusionThe strategy to permit a lower PaO2 and carbon dioxide retention to a certain extent at lower FiO2,VT and PS levels in invasive mechanical ventilation can reduce the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation and the occurrence of ventilator associated complications,and improve the prognosis in COPD patients with type Ⅱ respiratory failure.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the difference between the tracheal intubation connected to conventional ventilation (TI-CV) and rigid bronchoscopy connected to high frequency ventilation (RB-HFV) under general anesthesia on patients with transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB).MethodA prospective, randomized, controlled trial was conducted in interstitial lung disease patients with TBCB from August 2018 to February 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. According to the different methods of intubation, the patients were divided to a TI-CV group and a RB-HFV group randomly. The operating duration, extubation duration, total anesthesia time, heart rate, blood pressure and arterial blood gas analysis were collected and analyzed.ResultsSixty-five patients were enrolled. There were 33 patients with an average age of (48.0±15.0) years in TI-CV group and 32 patients with an average age of (48.8±10.8) years in RB-HFV group. The basic line of body mass index, pulmonary function (FEV1, FVC and DLCO), arterial blood gas (pH, PaO2 and PaCO2) and heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) had no significant differences between two groups. At the first 5 minutes of operation, the pH was (7.34±0.06) and (7.26±0.06), and the PaCO2 was (48.82±9.53) and (62.76±9.80) mm Hg in TI-CV group and RB-HFV group respectively, with significant differences (P=0.000). At the end of operation, the pH was (7.33±0.06) and (7.21±0.08), the PaCO2 was (48.91±10.49) and (70.93±14.83) mm Hg, the HR were (79.6±21.1) and (93.8±18.7) bpm, the MAP were (72.15±13.03) and (82.63±15.65) mm Hg in TI-CV group and RB-HFV group respectively, with significant differences (P<0.05). There were no differences in the operating duration and extubation duration between two groups. The total anesthesia time was (47.4±8.8) and (53.3±11.6) min with significant difference (P=0.017). Five minutes after the extubation, there were no significant difference in the pH, PaO2, PaCO2, HR and MAP between two groups. No serious complications occurred in either group.ConclusionsCompared with rigid bronchoscopy, TI-CV under general anesthesia is more conducive to maintain effective ventilation, and maintain the HR and MAP stable during the TBCB procedure. TBCB procedure should be performed by TI-CV under general anesthesia in patients with poor cardiopulmonary function.
