RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In the United States in 2017, there were an estimated 903,745 hospitalizations involving mechanical ventilation (MV). Complications from ventilation can result in longer hospital stays, increased risk of disability, and increased healthcare costs. It has been hypothesized that electrically pacing the diaphragm by phrenic nerve stimulation during mechanical ventilation may minimize or reverse diaphragm dysfunction, resulting in faster weaning. METHODS: The ReInvigorate Trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of Stimdia's pdSTIM System for facilitating weaning from MV. The pdSTIM system employs percutaneously placed multipolar electrodes to stimulate the cervical phrenic nerves and activate contraction of the diaphragm bilaterally. Patients who were on mechanical ventilation for at least 96 h and who failed at least one weaning attempt were considered for enrollment in the study. The primary efficacy endpoint was the time to successful liberation from mechanical ventilation (treatment vs. control). Secondary endpoints will include the rapid shallow breathing index and other physiological and system characteristics. Safety will be summarized for both primary and additional analyses. All endpoints will be evaluated at 30 days or at the time of removal of mechanical ventilation, whichever is first. DISCUSSION: This pivotal study is being conducted under an investigational device exception with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The technology being studied could provide a first-of-kind therapy for difficult-to-wean patients on mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit setting.

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study is to assess the impact of an early-graded pulmonary rehabilitation training program on patients undergoing mechanical ventilation due to brainstem hemorrhage. METHODS: Eighty patients receiving mechanical ventilation due to brainstem hemorrhage at our hospital's neurosurgery department between August 2022 and October 2023 were enrolled as participants. A sampling table was generated based on the order of admission, and 80 random sequences were generated using SPSS software. These sequences were then sorted in ascending order, with the first half designated as the control group and the second half as the intervention group, each comprising 40 cases. The control group received standard nursing care for mechanical ventilation in brainstem hemorrhage cases, while the intervention group underwent early-graded pulmonary rehabilitation training in addition to standard care. This intervention was conducted in collaboration with a multidisciplinary respiratory critical care rehabilitation team. The study compared respiratory function indices, ventilator weaning success rates, ventilator-associated pneumonia incidence, mechanical ventilation duration, and patient discharge duration between the 2 groups. RESULTS: The comparison between patients in the observation group and the control group regarding peak expiratory flow and maximum inspiratory pressure on days 1, 3, 5, and 7 revealed statistically significant differences (Pâ <â .05). Additionally, there was a statistically significant interaction between the main effect of intervention and the main effect of time (Pâ <â .05). The success rate of ventilator withdrawal was notably higher in the observation group (62.5%) compared to the control group (32.5%), with a statistically significant difference (Pâ <â .05). Moreover, the incidence rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia was significantly lower in the observation group (2.5%) compared to the control group (17.5%) (Pâ <â .05). Furthermore, both the duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization were significantly shorter in the observation group compared to the control group (Pâ <â .05). CONCLUSION: Early-graded pulmonary rehabilitation training demonstrates effectiveness in enhancing respiratory function, augmenting the ventilator withdrawal success rate, and reducing both the duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization in mechanically ventilated patients with brainstem hemorrhage. These findings suggest the potential value of promoting the application of this intervention in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Limited data is available regarding the weaning techniques employed for mechanical ventilation (MV) in elderly patients with dementia in China. OBJECTIVE: The primary objective of this study is to investigate diverse weaning methods in relation to the prognostic outcomes of elderly patients with dementia undergoing MV in the intensive care unit (ICU). Specifically, we seek to compare the prognosis, likelihood of successful withdrawal from MV, and the length of stay (LOS) in the ICU. METHODS: The study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial, encompassing a group of 169 elderly patients aged ≥ 65 years with dementia who underwent MV. Three distinct weaning methods were used for MV cessation, namely, the tapering parameter, spontaneous breathing trial (SBT), and SmartCare (Dräger, Germany). RESULTS: In the tapering parameter group, the LOS in the ICU was notably prolonged compared to both the SBT and SmartCare groups. However, no statistically significant differences were observed among the groups with respect to demographic characteristics, such as age and sex, as well as factors including the rationale for ICU admission, cause of MV, MV mode, oxygenation index, hemoglobin levels, albumin levels, ejection fraction, sedation and analgesia practices, tracheotomy, duration of MV, successful extubation, successful weaning, incidences of ventilator-associated pneumonia, and overall prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: Both the SBT and SmartCare withdrawal methods demonstrated a reduction in the duration of MV and LOS in the ICU when compared to the tapering parameter method.

BACKGROUND: In standard weaning from mechanical ventilation, a successful spontaneous breathing test (SBT) consisting of 30 min 8 cmH2O pressure-support ventilation (PSV8) without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is followed by extubation with continuous suctioning; however, these practices might promote derecruitment. Evidence supports the feasibility and safety of extubation without suctioning. Ultrasound can assess lung aeration and respiratory muscles. We hypothesize that weaning aiming to preserve lung volume can yield higher rates of successful extubation. METHODS: This multicenter superiority trial will randomly assign eligible patients to receive either standard weaning [SBT: 30-min PSV8 without PEEP followed by extubation with continuous suctioning] or lung-volume-preservation weaning [SBT: 30-min PSV8 + 5 cmH2O PEEP followed by extubation with positive pressure without suctioning]. We will compare the rates of successful extubation and reintubation, ICU and hospital stays, and ultrasound measurements of the volume of aerated lung (modified lung ultrasound score), diaphragm and intercostal muscle thickness, and thickening fraction before and after successful or failed SBT. Patients will be followed for 90 days after randomization. DISCUSSION: We aim to recruit a large sample of representative patients (N = 1600). Our study cannot elucidate the specific effects of PEEP during SBT and of positive pressure during extubation; the results will show the joint effects derived from the synergy of these two factors. Although universal ultrasound monitoring of lungs, diaphragm, and intercostal muscles throughout weaning is unfeasible, if derecruitment is a major cause of weaning failure, ultrasound may help clinicians decide about extubation in high-risk and borderline patients. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The Research Ethics Committee (CEIm) of the Fundació Unió Catalana d'Hospitals approved the study (CEI 22/67 and 23/26). Registered at ClinicalTrials.gov in August 2023. Identifier: NCT05526053.

BACKGROUND: In mechanically ventilated patients, diaphragm ultrasound can identify diaphragm weakness and predict weaning failure. We evaluated whether a novel operator-independent ultrasound-based medical device allowing continuous monitoring of the diaphragm (CUSdi) could reliably (1) measure diaphragm excursion (EXdi) and peak contraction velocity (PCVdi), (2) predict weaning outcome, and (3) approximate transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi). METHODS: In 49 mechanically ventilated patients, CUSdi was recorded during a 30-min spontaneous breathing trial (SBT), and EXdi and PCVdi were measured. In subgroups of patients, standard ultrasound measurement of EXdi and PCVdi was performed (n = 36), and Pdi derived parameters (peak and pressure time product, n = 30) were measured simultaneously. RESULTS: The agreement bias between standard ultrasound and CUSdi for EXdi was 0.1 cm (95% confidence interval -0.7-0.9 cm). The regression of Passing-Bablok indicated a lack of systematic difference between EXdi measured with standard ultrasound and CUSdi, which were positively correlated (Rho = 0.84, p < 0.001). Weaning failure was observed in 54% of patients. One, two and three minutes after the onset of the SBT, EXdi was higher in the weaning success group than in the failure group. Two minutes after the onset of the SBT, an EXdi < 1.1 cm predicted weaning failure with a sensitivity of 0.83, a specificity of 0.68, a positive predictive value of 0.76, and a negative predictive value of 0.24. There was a weak correlation between EXdi and both peak Pdi (r = 0.22, 95% confidence interval 0.15 - 0.28) and pressure time product (r = 0.13, 95% confidence interval 0.06 - 0.20). Similar results were observed with PCVdi. CONCLUSIONS: Operator-independent continuous diaphragm monitoring quantifies EXdi reliably and can predict weaning failure with an identified cut-off value of 1.1 cm.

A prospective observational study comparing mechanical power density (MP normalized to dynamic compliance) with traditional spontaneous breathing indexes (e.g., predicted body weight normalized tidal volume [VT/PBW], rapid shallow breathing index [RSBI], or the integrative weaning index [IWI]) for predicting prolonged weaning failure in 140 tracheotomized patients. We assessed the diagnostic accuracy of these indexes at the start and end of the weaning procedure using ROC curve analysis, expressed as the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC). Weaning failure occurred in 41 out of 140 patients (29%), demonstrating significantly higher MP density (6156 cmH2O2/min [4402-7910] vs. 3004 cmH2O2/min [2153-3917], P < 0.01), lower spontaneous VT/PBW (5.8 mL*kg-1 [4.8-6.8] vs. 6.6 mL*kg-1 [5.7-7.9], P < 0.01) higher RSBI (68 min-1*L-1 [44-91] vs. 55 min-1*L-1 [41-76], P < 0.01) and lower IWI (41 L2/cmH2O*%*min*10-3 [25-72] vs. 71 L2/cmH2O*%*min*10-3 [50-106], P < 0.01) and at the end of weaning. MP density was more accurate at predicting weaning failures (AUROC 0.91 [95%CI 0.84-0.95]) than VT/PBW (0.67 [0.58-0.74]), RSBI (0.62 [0.53-0.70]), or IWI (0.73 [0.65-0.80]), and may help clinicians in identifying patients at high risk for long-term ventilator dependency.

INTRODUCTION: Noninvasive High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation (NHFOV) is increasingly being adopted to reduce the need for invasive ventilation after extubation. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the benefits and harms of NHFOV as post-extubation respiratory support in newborns compared to other non-invasive respiratory support modes. MATERIAL & METHODS: We included randomized controlled trials comparing NHFOV with other non-invasive modes post-extubation in newborns. Data sources were MEDLINE (via Pubmed), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WHO international clinical trials registry platform and Clinical Trial Registry, forward and backward citation search. Methodological quality of studies was assessed by Cochrane's Risk of Bias tool 1.0. RESULTS: This systematic review included 21 studies and 3294 participants, the majority of whom were preterm. NHFOV compared to nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) reduced reintubation within seven days (RR 0.34, 95% CI 0.22 to 0.53) after extubation. It also reduced extubation failure (RR 0.39, 95% CI 0.30 to 0.51) and reintubation within 72 hrs (RR 0.40, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.53), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.37 to 0.94) and pulmonary air leak (RR 0.46, 95% CI 0.27 to 0.79) compared to NCPAP. The rate of reintubation within seven days (RR 0.62, 95% CI 0.18 to 2.14) was similar whereas extubation failure (RR 0.65, 95% CI 0.50 to 0.83) and reintubation (RR 0.68, 95% CI 0.52 to 0.89) within 72 hrs were lower in NHFOV group compared to nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation. There was no effect on other outcomes. Overall quality of the evidence was low to very low in both comparisons. CONCLUSIONS: NHFOV may reduce the rate of reintubation and extubation failure post-extubation without increasing complications. Majority of the trials were exclusively done in preterm neonates. Further research with high methodological quality is warranted.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the therapeutic effect of levosimendan in patients with prolonged ventilator weaning and cardiac dysfunction. METHOD: Patients with prolonged ventilator weaning and cardiac dysfunction were randomly allocated to receive conventional treatment (control group) or intravenous infusion of levosimendan for 24 h based on conventional treatment (levosimendan group). Weaning success rates were then compared between the two groups. The study was retrospectively registered with Research Registry (ID No. researchregistry10304). RESULTS: A total of 40 patients were included (20 per group). Within 3 days after initiation of treatment, significantly more cases were successfully weaned in the levosimendan group versus control group (eight versus four cases, respectively). Among the eight patients who underwent pulse indicator continuous cardiac output monitoring in the levosimendan group, the global ejection fraction increased 24 h after treatment, and the cardiac function index and cardiac index increased 72 h after treatment. CONCLUSION: For patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation who have concomitant cardiac dysfunction, levosimendan may be considered to increase the probability of weaning success.

BACKGROUND: The endeavor of liberating patients from ventilator dependence within respiratory care centers (RCCs) poses considerable challenges. Multiple factors contribute to this process, yet establishing an effective regimen for pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) remains uncertain. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate existing rehabilitation protocols, ascertain associations between clinical factors and patient outcomes, and explore the influence of these protocols on the outcomes of the patients to shape suitable rehabilitation programs. METHODS: Conducted at a medical center in northern Taiwan, the retrospective study examined 320 newly admitted RCC patients between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2017. Each patient received a tailored PR protocol, following which researchers evaluated weaning rates, RCC survival, and 3-month survival as outcome variables. Analyses scrutinized differences in baseline characteristics and prognoses among three PR protocols: protocol 1 (routine care), protocol 2 (routine care plus breathing training), and protocol 3 (routine care plus breathing and limb muscle training). RESULTS: Among the patients, 28.75% followed protocol 1, 59.37% protocol 2, and 11.88% protocol 3. Variances in age, body-mass index, pneumonia diagnosis, do-not-resuscitate orders, Glasgow Coma Scale scores (≤ 14), and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE) scores were notable across these protocols. Age, APACHE scores, and abnormal blood urea nitrogen levels (> 20 mg/dL) significantly correlated with outcomes-such as weaning, RCC survival, and 3-month survival. Elevated mean hemoglobin levels linked to increased weaning rates (p = 0.0065) and 3-month survival (p = 0.0102). Four adjusted models clarified the impact of rehabilitation protocols. Notably, the PR protocol 3 group exhibited significantly higher 3-month survival rates compared to protocol 1, with odds ratios (ORs) ranging from 3.87 to 3.97 across models. This association persisted when comparing with protocol 2, with ORs between 3.92 and 4.22. CONCLUSION: Our study showed that distinct PR protocols significantly affected the outcomes of ventilator-dependent patients within RCCs. The study underlines the importance of tailored rehabilitation programs and identifies key clinical factors influencing patient outcomes. Recommendations advocate prospective studies with larger cohorts to comprehensively assess PR effects on RCC patients.

BACKGROUND: The spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) technique that best balance successful extubation with the risk for reintubation is unknown. We sought to determine the comparative efficacy and safety of alternative SBT techniques. METHODS: We searched Medline, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to February 2023 for randomized or quasi-randomized trials comparing SBT techniques in critically ill adults and children and reported initial SBT success, successful extubation, reintubation (primary outcomes) and mortality (ICU, hospital, most protracted; secondary outcome) rates. Two reviewers screened, reviewed full-texts, and abstracted data. We performed frequentist random-effects network meta-analysis. RESULTS: We included 40 RCTs (6716 patients). Pressure Support (PS) versus T-piece SBTs was the most common comparison. Initial successful SBT rates were increased with PS [risk ratio (RR) 1.08, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.05-1.11)], PS/automatic tube compensation (ATC) [1.12 (1.01 -1.25), high flow nasal cannulae (HFNC) [1.07 (1.00-1.13) (all moderate certainty), and ATC [RR 1.11, (1.03-1.20); low certainty] SBTs compared to T-piece SBTs. Similarly, initial successful SBT rates were increased with PS, ATC, and PS/ATC SBTs compared to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) SBTs. Successful extubation rates were increased with PS [RR 1.06, (1.03-1.09); high certainty], ATC [RR 1.13, (1.05-1.21); moderate certainty], and HFNC [RR 1.06, (1.02-1.11); high certainty] SBTs, compared to T-piece SBTs. There was little to no difference in reintubation rates with PS (vs. T-piece) SBTs [RR 1.05, (0.91-1.21); low certainty], but increased reintubation rates with PS [RR 2.84, (1.61-5.03); moderate certainty] and ATC [RR 2.95 (1.57-5.56); moderate certainty] SBTs compared to HFNC SBTs. CONCLUSIONS: SBTs conducted with pressure augmentation (PS, ATC, PS/ATC) versus without (T-piece, CPAP) increased initial successful SBT and successful extubation rates. Although SBTs conducted with PS or ATC versus HFNC increased reintubation rates, this was not the case for PS versus T-piece SBTs.

OBJECTIVE: This study was performed to explore the predictive value of the diaphragmatic thickness fraction (DTF) combined with the integrated pulmonary index (IPI) for the extubation outcome in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). METHODS: This prospective study involved 93 patients diagnosed with SAP and treated with mechanical ventilation in our hospital from October 2020 to September 2023. The patients were divided into a successful extubation group (61 patients) and an extubation failure group (32 patients) based on the extubation outcomes. The predictive value of the DTF, IPI, and their combination for extubation failure was analyzed. RESULTS: The DTF and IPI were independent risk factors for extubation failure in patients with SAP undergoing mechanical ventilation. In addition, the combination of the DTF and IPI showed predictive value for extubation failure in these patients. CONCLUSION: The DTF and IPI hold predictive value for extubation failure in patients with SAP undergoing mechanical ventilation, and their combined use may improve the predictive efficiency.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the influence of different spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs) on regional ventilation distribution in patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV). METHODS: A total of 24 patients with PMV were analyzed retrospectively. They received three different SBT modes which are automatic tube compensation (ATC), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), and T-piece (TP), over three days, and every SBT lasted two hours. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) was used to monitor the SBT process and five-minute EIT data from five periods (pre-SBT which is t0, at the beginning and the end of the first hour SBT are t1 and t2, at the beginning and the end of the second hour SBT are t3 and t4) were analyzed. RESULTS: In all PMV patients, the temporal skew of aeration (TSA) values at t3 were significantly different in three SBTs (ATC: 18.18±22.97; CPAP: 20.42±17.01; TP:11.26±11.79; p=0.05). In the weaning success group, TSA (t1) values were significantly different too (ATC: 11.11±13.88; CPAP: 19.09±15.77; TP: 9.09±12.74; p=0.04). In the weaning failure group, TSA (t4) values were significantly different in three SBTs (ATC: 36.67±18.46; CPAP: 15.38±11.69; TP: 17.65±17.93; p=0.04). The patient's inspiratory effort (Global flow index at t1) in patients with weaning failure under CPAP (3.51±4.31) was significantly higher than that in the ATC (1.15±1.47) and TP (0.89±1.28). The SBT mode with the best ventilation uniformity may be the one that activates the respiratory muscles the most which may be the optimal SBT. The SBT mode of most uniform ventilation distribution settings varies from patient to patient. CONCLUSION: The regional ventilation distribution was different for each individual, making the SBT with the best ventilation distribution of patients need to be personalized. EIT is a tool that can be considered for real-time assessment.

BACKGROUND: Utilizing clinical tests, such as objective cough measurement, can assist in predicting the success of the weaning process in critically ill patients. METHODS: A multicenter observational analytical study was conducted within a prospective cohort of patients recruited to participate in COBRE-US. We assessed the capability of objective cough measurement to predict the success of the spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) and extubation. Intra- and inter-observer reproducibility of the cough test and was evaluated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Cohen's weighted kappa. We used receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC-curve) to evaluate the predictive ability of objective cough measurement. RESULTS: We recruited 367 subjects who were receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. A total of 451 objective cough measurements and 456 SBTs were conducted. A significant association was found between objective cough measurement and successful SBT (OR: 1.68; 95% CI 1.48-1.90; p = 0.001). The predictive capability of the objective cough test for SBT success had a ROC-curve of 0.58 (95% CI: 0.56-0.61). Objective cough measurement to predict successful extubation had a ROC-curve of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.56-0.66). The intraobserver reproducibility exhibited an ICC of 0.94 (95% CI: 0.89-0.96; p < 0.001), while the interobserver reproducibility demonstrated an ICC of 0.72 (95% CI: 0.51-0.85; p < 0.001). The intraobserver agreement, assessed using Cohen's weighted kappa was 0.94 (95% CI: 0.93-0.99; p < 0.001), whereas the interobserver agreement was 0.84 (95% CI: 0.67 - 0.10; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The objective measurement of cough using the method employed in our study demonstrates nearly perfect intra-observer reproducibility and agreement. However, its ability to predict success or failure in the weaning process is limited.

BACKGROUND: Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are associated with postoperative mortality and prolonged hospital stay. Although intraoperative mechanical ventilation (MV) is a risk factor for PPCs, strategies addressing weaning from MV are understudied. In this systematic review, we evaluated weaning strategies and their effects on postoperative pulmonary outcomes. METHODS: Our protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022379145). Eligible studies included randomised controlled trials and observational studies of adults weaned from MV in the operating room. Primary outcomes included atelectasis and oxygenation; secondary outcomes included lung volume changes and PPCs. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (RoB2) tool, and quality of evidence with the GRADE framework. RESULTS: Screening identified 14 randomised controlled trials including 1719 patients; seven studies were limited to the weaning phase and seven included interventions not restricted to the weaning phase. Strategies combining pressure support ventilation (PSV) with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and low fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) improved atelectasis, oxygenation, and lung volumes. Low FiO2 improved atelectasis and oxygenation but might not improve lung volumes. A fixed-PEEP strategy led to no improvement in oxygenation or atelectasis; however, individualised PEEP with low FiO2 improved oxygenation and might be associated with reduced PPCs. Half of included studies are of moderate or high risk of bias; the overall quality of evidence is low. CONCLUSIONS: There is limited research evaluating weaning from intraoperative MV. Based on low-quality evidence, PSV, individualised PEEP, and low FiO2 may be associated with reduced postoperative pulmonary outcomes. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL: PROSPERO (CRD42022379145).

Prolonged ventilation is a complication of spontaneous supratentorial hemorrhage patients, but the predictive relationship with successful weaning in this patient cohort is not understood. Here, we evaluate the incidence and factors of ventilation weaning in case of spontaneous supratentorial hemorrhage. We retrospectively studied data from 166 patients in the same hospital from January 2015 to March 2021 and analyzed factors for ventilation weaning. The clinical data recorded included patient age, gender, timing of operation, initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) score, alcohol drinking, cigarette smoking, medical comorbidity, and the blood data. Predictors of patient outcomes were determined by the Student t test, chi-square test, and logistic regression. We recruited and followed 166 patients who received operation for spontaneous supratentorial hemorrhage with cerebral herniation. The group of successful weaning had 84 patients and the group of weaning failed had 82 patients. The patient's age, type of operation, GCS on admission to the Intensive care unit (ICU), GCS at discharge from the ICU, medical comorbidity was significantly associated with successful weaning, according to Student t test and the chi-square test. According to our findings, patients with stereotaxic surgery, less history of cardiovascular or prior cerebral infarction, GCS >8 before admission to the hospital for craniotomy, and a blood albumin value >3.5 g/dL have a higher chance of being successfully weaned off the ventilator within 14 days.
