Laboratory studies:
Hemoglobin 13.2 g/dL (132 g/L)Leukocyte count 10,000/µL (10 × 109/L)Arterial blood gas studies (on an FIO2 of 0.8):pH 7.48PCO2 30 mm Hg (4.0 kPa)PO2 60 mm Hg (8.0 kPa)
A 32-year-old man is evaluated for persistent hypoxemia on mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit. His medical history is significant for paraplegia and a chronic indwelling urinary catheter for neurogenic bladder. He presented to the emergency department 2 days ago with sepsis. At that time, he received piperacillin/tazobactam, normal saline, and vasopressors. He was endotracheally intubated for decreased level of consciousness. His initial chest radiograph was normal.
On physical examination on the second day of hospitalization, temperature is 37.1 °C (98.8 °F), blood pressure is 90/50 mm Hg, pulse rate is 96/min, and respiration rate is 26/min. His need for supplemental oxygen has steadily increased; his oxygen saturation on an FIO2 of 0.8 is 89%. Pulmonary examination reveals bilateral inspiratory crackles. Cardiac examination reveals distant, regular heart sounds.
Urine and blood cultures are positive for Escherichia coli. A follow-up chest radiograph shows diffuse bilateral infiltrates without cardiomegaly. Central venous pressure is 8 mm Hg.
Which of the following is the most likely cause of this patient’s hypoxemia?
A. Acute respiratory distress syndrome
B. E. coli pneumonia
C. Heart failure
D. Eosinophilic pneumonia
Respiratory Failure
Any disruption of function of respiratory system – CNS, nerves, muscles, pleura, lungs
Any process resulting in low pO2 or high pCO2 – arbitrarily 50/50
Acute respiratory failure can be exacerbation of chronic disease or acute process in previously healthy lungs
History
1940’s – polio, barbiturate OD 1960’s – blood gas analysis readily available,
aware of hypoxemia 1970’s – decreased hypoxic mortality,
increased multiorgan failure (living longer) 1973 – relationship between resp muscle
fatigue and resp failure
Types of Respiratory Failure
Type 1 (nonventilatory) – hypoxemia with or without hypercapnia – disease involves lung itself (i.e, ARDS)
Type 2 – failure of alveolar ventilation – decrease in minute ventilation or increase in dead space (i.e. COPD, drug OD)
Goals of Treatment
Correct hypoxemia or hypercapnia without causing additional complications
Noninvasive ventilation vs. intubation and mechanical ventilation
Goal of mechanical ventilation is NOT necessarily to normalize ABGs
Ventilation–perfusion (V/Q) relationships and
associated blood gas abnormalities
Shunt
The influence of shunt fraction on the relationship between the inspired oxygen (FiO2) and the
arterial PO2 (PaO2).
Ventilatory Failure
Failure of respiratory pump to adequately eliminate CO2
pCO2 :
VCO2 determined by rate of total body metabolism
VCO2
VA
ALVEOLAR HYPOVENTILATION IN THE ICU
Respiratory Muscles Acute or acute-on-chronic overloading
COPD, hyperinflation, fatigue Electrolyte imbalances Sepsis Shock Malnutrition Drugs Atrophy related to prolonged mechanical ventilation Hypothyroidism Myopathies
What factors leading to respiratory muscle weakness can be reversed?
Reduce respiratory load treat asthma, COPD, upper airway problems treat pneumonia, pulm edema, reduce dynamic
hyperinflation, drain large pleural effusions, evacuate PTX Replace K, Mg, PO4, Ca Treat sepsis Nutritional support w/o overfeeding Rest muscles 24-48 hrs, then exercise Stop aminoglycosides Rule out hypothyroidism, oversedation, critical illness
myopathy/neuropathy
To intubate or not
Decision to mechanically ventilate is clinical Some criteria:
Decreased level of consciousness (ER always tells us that GCS = 3 and pt tubed to protect airway!)
Vital capacity <15 ml/kg Severe hypoxemia Hypercarbia (acute or acute-on-chronic) Vd/Vt >0.60 NIF < -25 cm H20
ARDS – Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
ARDS - Definition
Severe end of the spectrum of acute lung injury Diffuse alveolar damage Acute and persistent lung inflammation with
increased vascular permeability – inflammatory cytokines
Diffuse infiltrates Hypoxemia No clinical evidence of elevated left atrial pressure
(PCWP <18 if measured)
ARDS – History/Definitions
1967 – Ashbaugh described 12 pts with acute respiratory distress, refractory cyanosis, decreased lung compliance, diffuse infiltrates; 7 of the 12 died
1988 – 4 point lung injury score (level of PEEP, pO2/FiO2, lung compliance, degree of infiltrates)
1994 – acute onset, bilateral infiltrates, no direct or clinical evidence of LV failure, pO2/FiO2)
1994 American European Consensus
Acute onset Bilateral infiltrates c/w
pulmonary edema No clinical evidence of
left-sided CHF (PCWP <18)
paO2/FiO2 ratio <300
Acute onset Bilateral infiltrates c/w
pulmonary edema No clinical evidence of
left-sided CHF (PCWP <18)
paO2/FiO2 ratio <200
Acute Lung Injury ARDS
100/0.40 = 250 100/0.60 = 167
New Definition of ARDS - 2012
• Acute onset (within 7 days of some defined event)
• Bilateral infiltrates (on CXR or CT)• No need to exclude heart failure (respiratory
failure “not fully explained by CHF”)• Hypoxemia – mild, moderate, severe
Severity of ARDS (2012)
ARDS SeverityPaO2/FiO2
(on PEEP 5) Mortality
Mild 200 - 300 27%
Moderate 100 - 200 32%
Severe <100 45%
ARDS - Incidence
Annual incidence 75 per 100,000 (1977) 9% of American critical care beds occupied
by pts with ARDS
ARDS - Diagnosis
Clinically and radiographically resembles cardiogenic pulmonary edema
PCWP can be misleading – should be normal or low, but can be high
20% of pts with ARDS may have LV dysfunction
ARDS - Causes
Direct injury to the lung Indirect injury to the lung in setting of
systemic process Multiple predisposing disorders substantially
increase risk Increased risk with alcohol abuse, chronic
lung disease, acidemia
ARDS - Causes
Direct Lung Injury Pneumonia Gastric aspiration
Lung contusion Fat emboli Near drowning Inhalation injury Reperfusion injury
Indirect Lung Injury Sepsis Multiple trauma
Cardiopulm bypass Drug overdose Acute pancreatitis Blood transfusion
ARDS - Physiologic Derangements
Inflammatory injury producing diffuse alveolar damage Alveolar epithelium (eg, aspiration) Vascular endothelium (eg, sepsis) Proinflammatory cytokines (TNF, IL-1, IL-8) Neutrophils recruited – release toxic mediators Normal barriers to alveolar edema are lost, protein and
fluid flow into air spaces, surfactant lost, alveoli collapse; inhomogeneous process Impaired gas exchange Decreased compliance Pulmonary hypertension
ARDS – Features
Severe initial hypoxemia Increased work of breathing (decreased compliance)
– generally a prolonged need for mechanical ventilation
Initial exudative stage Proliferative stage
resolution of edema, proliferation of type II pneumocytes, squamous metaplasia, collagen deposition
Fibrotic stage
ARDS – Course Early
Inciting event pulmonary dysfunction (worsening tachypnea, dyspnea, refractory hypoxemia)
Nonspecific labs CXR – diffuse alveolar infiltrates
Subsequent Eventual improvement in oxygenation Continued ventilator dependence Complications Large dead space, high minute ventilation requirement Organization and fibrosis in proliferative phase
ARDS - Complications
Ventilator induced lung injury Sedation and neuromuscular blockade Nosocomial infection Pulmonary emboli Multiple organ dysfunction
ARDS - Prognosis Improved survival in recent years – mortality was 50-
60% for many years, now 35-40% Improvements in supportive care, improved
mechanical ventilatory management Early deaths (3 days) usually from underlying cause
of ARDS Later deaths from nosocomial infections, sepsis,
MOSF Respiratory failure only responsible for ~16% of
fatalities Long-term survivors usually show mild abnormalities
in pulmonary function (DLCO)
Question 2• A 63-year-old man with acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS) is evaluated in the intensive care unit. He has just been intubated and placed on mechanical ventilation for ARDS secondary to aspiration pneumonia. Before intubation, his oxygen saturation was 78% breathing 100% oxygen with a nonrebreather mask.
• On physical examination, temperature is 37.0 °C (98.6 °F), blood pressure is 150/90 mm Hg, and pulse rate is 108/min. His height is 150 cm (59 in) and his weight is 70.0 kg (154.3 lb). Ideal body weight is calculated to be 52.0 kg (114.6 lb). Central venous pressure is 8 cm H2O. Cardiac examination reveals normal heart sounds and no murmurs. Crackles are auscultated in the lower left lung field. The patient is sedated. Neurologic examination is nonfocal.
• Mechanical ventilation is on the assist/control mode at a rate of 18/min. Positive end-expiratory pressure is 8 cm H2O, and FIO2 is 1.0.
Which of the following is the most appropriate tidal volume?
A. 300 ml
B. 450 ml
C. 700 ml
D. 840 ml
Ventilatory Goals in ARDS
Provide adequate oxygenation without causing damage related to: Oxygen toxicity Hemodynamic compromise Barotrauma Alveolar overdistension Alveolar shear
Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS
Reliable oxygen supplementation Decrease work of breathing
Increased due to high ventilatory requirements, increased dead space, and decreased compliance
Recruitment of atelectatic lung units Decreased venous return can help decrease
fluid movement into alveolar spaces
Ventilator Induced Lung Injury
Known for decades that high levels of positive pressure ventilation can rupture alveolar units
In 1950’s became known that high FiO2 can produce lung injury
More recently, effects of alveolar overdistension, shearing, cyclical opening and closing have become apparent
Ventilator Induced Lung Injury
Macrobarotrauma Pneumothorax, interstitial emphysema,
pneumomediastinum, SQ emphysema, pneumoperitoneum, air embolism
? resulting from high airway pressures, or just a marker of severe lung injury
Higher PEEP predicts barotrauma
Ventilator Induced Lung lnjury
Microbarotrauma Alveolar overinflation exacerbating and
perpetuating lung injury – edema, surfactant abnormalities, inflammation, hemorrhage
Less affected lung accommodates most of tidal volume – regional overinflation
Cyclical atelectasis (shear) – adds to injury Low tidal volume strategy (initial tidal volume
6 ml/kg IBW, plateau pressure <30) – lower mortality
Ventilatory Strategies Therapeutic target of mechanical ventilation in patients with
ARDS has shifted from maintenance of "normal gas exchange” to the protection of the lung from ventilator-induced lung injury
Low tidal volume, plateau pressure <30 peak pressure = large airways plateau pressure = small airways/alveoli
PEEP – enough, not too much Pressure controlled vs. volume cycled Prolonging inspiratory time (increase mean airway pressure and
improve oxygenation) APRV Recent data suggests high frequency oscillation is bad Permissive hypercapnia
Secondary effect of low tidal volumes Maintain adequate oxygenation with less risk of barotrauma Sedation/paralysis often necessary
The only method of mechanical ventilation that has been shown in randomized controlled trials to improve survival in patients with ARDS is low tidal volume ventilation.
ARDS Network Trial
Initial tidal volume of 6 ml/kg IBW and plateau pressure <30
vs. Initial tidal volume of 12 ml/kg IBW and plateau pressure <50
Reduction in mortality of 22% (31% vs 40%)
NEJM 2000; 342:1301-1308.
Ventilator management in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome or acute lung injury
N Engl J Med 2000; 342:1301
A 25-year-old woman is admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for a 6-hour history of respiratory distress. She has acute lymphoblastic leukemia and received cytotoxic chemotherapy 2 weeks before ICU admission. She has had fever and leukopenia for 7 days.
On physical examination, she is in marked respiratory distress. Temperature is 39.0 °C (102.2 °F), blood pressure is 110/70 mm Hg, pulse rate is 130/min, and respiration rate is 42/min. Weight is 50.0 kg (110.2 lb). Ideal body weight is calculated as 50.0 kg (110.2 lb).
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is diagnosed. She is intubated and started on mechanical ventilation in the assist/control mode at a rate of 12/min, tidal volume of 300 mL, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 cm H2O, and FIO2 of 1.0. An arterial blood gas study on these settings shows a pH of 7.47, PCO2 of 30 mm Hg (4.0 kPa), and PO2 of 45 mm Hg (6.0 kPa). Peak airway pressure is 26 cm H2O, and the plateau pressure is 24 cm H2O.
Question 3
Which of the following is the most appropriate treatment to improve this patient’s oxygenation?
A. Increase PEEP to 10 cm H2O
B. Increase respiratory rate to 18/min
C. Increase tidal volume to 500 ml
D. Start inhaled nitric oxide
PEEP in ARDS
Increases FRC (volume of air remaining in lungs following a normal tidal exhalation) – recruits “recruitable” alveoli, increases surface area for gas exchange
Decreases shunt, improves V/Q matching No consensus on optimal level of PEEP
ALVEOLI trial
High PEEP vs. low PEEP
Low tidal volume for all (6 ml/kg predicted weight)
Higher PEEP patients had better oxygenation, but no difference in mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of non-pulmonary organ failure
No benefit from recruitment maneuvers (CPAP 35-40 cm H20 for 30 seconds) – but other studies suggest that recruitment maneuvers do help
NEJM 2004; 351:327-336.
Prone Positioning
Thought to improve oxygenation and respiratory mechanics by: alveolar recruitment redistribution of ventilation toward dorsal areas
resulting in improved V/Q matching elimination of compression of the lungs by the
heart reduction of parenchymal lung stress and
strain
Prone Positioning
Several studies demonstrate improved oxygenation, but no overall reduction in mortality
Greatest benefit of prone positioning occurs in the sickest patients if used early after the diagnosis of ARDS
Other modalities - None of these have proven superior to more standard techniques
APRV High-frequency ventilation Partial liquid ventilation Inverse ratio ventilation ECMO Nitric Oxide, prostacyclin Ketoconazole, ibuprofen Glutathione (anti-oxidant) Surfactant Steroids Intravenous beta-agonists (increases clearance of
alveolar edema) – needs more study
APRV
Pharmacotherapy - Nitric Oxide
Selectively dilates vessels that perfuse better ventilated lung zones, resulting in improved V/Q matching, improved oxygenation, reduction of pulmonary hypertension
Less benefit in septic patients No clear improvement in mortality
Pharmacotherapy - Surfactant
First tried in 1980’s No benefit in adult population One study did demonstrate improvement in
oxygenation and mortality in children
Pharmacotherapy - Steroids
No consensus on effectiveness – no clear benefit, some risks
ARDSnet - NEJM 2006; 354:1671-1684.some benefit in subgroups, but not overall; increased mortality if started after 14 days; neuromyopathy
Meduri - Chest 2007; 131:954-963.improvement in pulmonary and
extrapulmonary organ dysfunction, reduction in duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay – (small sample size, imbalance in treatment arms)
Fluid management in ARDS
Increased extravascular lung water associated with poor outcome
Reduction in PCWP associated with increased survival
Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial (FACTT)
Liberal vs conservative fluid management CVP just as good as PCWP Conservative management group did better (more
ventilator free days, fewer ICU days, trend toward lower mortality)
No difference in incidence of hypotension or need for renal replacement therapy
NEJM 2006
Excluded patients with shock, was initiated later in ICU course (mean time 43 hrs) – early aggressive fluid resuscitation appropriate
Liberal group gained ~1 liter/day, conservative had net zero balance over 1st 7 days
MAP > 60, no vasopressors for > 12 hrs
CVP PCWP Average urine output <0.5 cc/kg/hr Average urine output >0.5 cc/kg/hr
>8 >12 Lasix; reassess in 1 hr Lasix; reassess in 4 hrs
4-8 8-12 Rapid fluid bolus; reassess 1 hr Lasix; reassess in 4 hrs
<4 <8 Rapid fluid bolus; reassess 1 hr No intervention; reassess in 4 hrs
Simplified Algorithm for Conservative Fluid Management(Target CVP <4 or PCWP <8)
Supportive Care
Treat predisposing factors Prophylaxis for GI bleeding DVT prophylaxis Prevent and treat nosocomial pneumonia –
most important causes are microaspiration, biofilm formation (VAP bundle?)
Nutritional support Blood sugar control ?Transfusion (Hgb >7 adequate) Decrease oxygen utilization
- antipyretics, sedatives, paralysis
VAP Bundle – ?truly evidence based
Elevate head of bed (helpful) Daily sedation vacation and assessment of readiness
to extubate (shorter duration on vent, should be less pneumonia)
Daily chlorhexidine mouth rinse (questionable benefit) PPI or H2 antagonists (can increase risk) DVT prophylaxis (nothing to do with pneumonia) Potentially helpful: subglottic suctioning, lateral head-
down positioning, silver-coated ET tubes, “mucus shaver”
“There is nothing so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all.” (Peter Drucker)
A 50-year-old man is evaluated in the intensive care unit for acute respiratory distress syndrome secondary to severe community-acquired pneumonia. He is intubated and placed on mechanical ventilation. He was previously healthy and took no medications before his hospitalization.
On physical examination, temperature is 38.3 °C (100.9 °F), blood pressure is 120/60 mm Hg, and pulse rate is 110/min. The patient weighs 60.0 kg (132.3 lb); ideal body weight is 60.0 kg (132.3 lb). He is sedated and is not using accessory muscles to breathe. Central venous pressure is 8 cm H2O. Other than tachycardia, cardiac examination is normal. There are bilateral inspiratory crackles.
Initial ventilator settings are volume control with a rate of 18/min, a tidal volume of 360 mL, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 10 cm H2O, an FIO2 of 0.8, a peak pressure of 34 cm H2O, and a plateau pressure of 32 cm H2O. Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry is 96%.
