ABSTRACT Objective: To identify and characterize the population of Pediatric patients referred to our hyperbaric oxygen therapy center. Methods: Retrospective and observational study, including pediatric patients treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy, from 2006 to 2021, at the hyperbaric medicine reference center in the north of Portugal. Variables of interest were extracted from electronic medical records. Results: Our study included 134 patients. The most frequent reasons for referral were carbon monoxide poisoning (n=59) and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (n=41). In 75 cases (56%), treatment was initiated in an urgent context. Symptom presentation at Emergency Department varied among patients, the most frequent being headache and nausea/vomiting. Concerning carbon monoxide poisoning, the most common sources were water heater, fireplace/brazier, and boiler. Regarding adverse effects, it was identified one case of intoxication by oxygen and four cases of middle ear barotrauma. Conclusions: The most frequent cause for referral was carbon monoxide poisoning. All patients evolved favorably, with few side effects being reported, emphasizing the safety of this therapy. While most pediatricians may not be aware of the potential benefits arising with hyperbaric oxygen therapy, it is of upmost importance to promote them, so that this technique is increasingly implemented.
RESUMO Objetivo: Identificar e caracterizar a população de casos pediátricos encaminhados para o nosso centro de oxigenoterapia hiperbárica. Métodos: Estudo retrospetivo e observacional, que incluiu doentes pediátricos tratados com oxigenoterapia hiperbárica, de 2006 a 2021, no centro de referência de medicina hiperbárica do norte de Portugal. As variáveis de interesse foram extraídas dos processos clínicos eletrônicos. Resultados: O nosso estudo incluiu 134 casos. Os motivos de encaminhamento mais frequentes foram intoxicação por monóxido de carbono (n=59) e surdez súbita neurossensorial (n=41). Em 75 casos (56%) o tratamento foi iniciado em contexto de urgência. Os sintomas de apresentação à admissão variaram entre os diferentes casos, sendo os mais frequentes cefaleias e náuseas/vômitos. No que diz respeito à intoxicação por monóxido de carbono, as fontes mais comuns foram o aquecedor, lareira/braseiro e caldeira. Com relação aos efeitos adversos, foram identificados um caso de intoxicação por oxigênio e quatro casos de barotrauma do ouvido médio. Conclusões: A causa mais frequente de encaminhamento foi a intoxicação por monóxido de carbono. Todos os pacientes evoluíram favoravelmente e foram registrados poucos efeitos adversos, o que enfatiza a segurança desta terapia. Uma vez que a maioria dos pediatras pode não estar informada sobre os potenciais benefícios da oxigenoterapia hiperbárica, é de extrema importância promovê-los para que esta técnica seja cada vez mais implementada.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) on patients with pulmonary edema caused by seawater drowning.Methods:A retrospective analysis method was used. Based on the Utstein database of emergency drowning in the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao, the clinical data of patients with seawater drowning pulmonary edema admitted to the emergency medicine department of the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2022 were collected. The patients were divided into NPPV group and HFNC group according to different ventilation methods. The general data, endotracheal intubation rate in 7 days, arterial blood gas analysis indexes [arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO 2)] and hemodynamic indexes (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, blood lactic acid) before and after treatment, length of stay in intensive care unit (ICU), oxygen therapy comfort of the two groups were compared. Results:A total of 54 patients were enrolled, including 21 patients in the NPPV group and 33 patients in the HFNC group. There were no significant differences in gender, age, state of consciousness and other general information between the two groups. Compared with NPPV group, the rate of endotracheal intubation in HFNC group within 7 days was significantly lower [24.2% (8/33) vs. 33.3% (7/21), P < 0.05]. Before treatment, there were no significant differences in arterial blood gas analysis and hemodynamics between the two groups. After treatment, the above indexes in both groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment, and PaO 2, SaO 2, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure in HFNC group were significantly higher than those in NPPV group [PaO 2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133kPa): 93.56±6.37 vs. 82.14±6.25, SaO 2: 1.02±0.09 vs. 0.95±0.11, systolic blood pressure (mmHg): 117.37±8.43 vs. 110.42±8.38, diastolic blood pressure (mmHg): 79.43±7.61 vs. 72.21±4.32, mean arterial pressure (mmHg): 92.34±6.32 vs. 85.12±5.38], PaCO 2, heart rate and blood lactic acid were significantly lower than those in NPPV group [PaCO 2 (mmHg) : 34.26±5.63 vs. 37.24±6.22, heart rate (times/min): 73.38±7.56 vs. 86.25±5.41, blood lactic acid (mmol/L): 1.38±0.36 vs. 2.25±1.14], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). In addition, the length of ICU stay in HFNC group was significantly shorter than that in NPPV group (days: 13.30±2.38 vs. 16.27±4.26), and the comfort rate of oxygen therapy was significantly higher than that in NPPV group [66.7% (22/33) vs. 42.8% (9/21)], with statistical significance (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:HFNC can improve the oxygenation of patients with pulmonary edema caused by seawater drowning, improve hemodynamics, reduce the rate of tracheal intubation, shorten the length of ICU stay, and improve the comfort of oxygen therapy, which has certain clinical application value.

Objective:To study the application effect of family integrated ward in maintaining the optimal target pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2) in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. Premature infants with BPD admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled. Based on whether to stay in family integrated ward and implement family integrated care (FICare), these premature infants were divided into the family ward group and the control group. The ratio of optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge, the duration of home oxygen therapy, and ratio of readmission due to respiratory disease within 6 months after discharge were analyzed between the two groups. Results:During the study period, a total of 167 premature infants with BPD were admitted, including 101 in the family ward group and 66 in the control group. Compared with the control group, the family ward group showed a higher proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 within 24 h before discharge (58.0% vs. 24.0%), shorter duration for home oxygen therapy (7.0 d vs. 12.0 d), and a lower readmission rate within 6 months after discharge (16.5% vs. 30.2%), which had statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Further regression analysis showed that participating in the family integrated ward significantly reduced the demand for home oxygen therapy and the duration of home oxygen therapy, but had no significant impact on the readmission rate within 6 months after discharge. Conclusions:Family integrated ward can effectively increase the proportion of achieving the optimal target SpO 2 for premature infants with BPD within 24 h before discharge, reduce the demand for home oxygen therapy, and shorten the time of home oxygen therapy after discharge, which is beneficial for improving the living quality of premature infants with BPD.

Introducción. Introducción. El uso de humidificadores de burbuja asociados a equipos de oxigenoterapia es una práctica común en los centros hospitalarios de nuestro país. Sin embargo, no se ha evaluado el aporte real de humedad que entregan estos equipos cuando son usados con sistemas de concentración variable a distintas concentraciones de oxígeno. Además, se han descrito problemas de funcionamiento en la entrega de oxígeno cuando se han ocupado este tipo de humidificador. Objetivo. Determinar el aporte real de humedad que entregan los humidificadores de burbuja al ser usados con sistemas de oxigenoterapia de concentración variable. Métodos. Se evaluaron 10 humidificadores de burbuja, marca Hudson RCI®, con válvula liberadora de presión, los cuales se conectaron a un sistema de oxigenoterapia de concentración variable (Marca Hudson RCI®, modelo MULTI-VENT). La medición de la humedad relativa (HR) se realizó en una cámara de acrílico, donde se conectó el inyector del sistema de oxigenoterapia. Para medir H.R. y temperatura se utilizó un higrómetro digital (Veto®, Italia) y un higrómetro análogo (Hygromat®, Alemania). Cada medición requirió un tiempo de 5 minutos para lograr un valor estable. Se realizaron mediciones de la humedad relativa y temperatura entregada por este sistema, con y sin humidificador, a concentraciones de oxígeno de 0.24, 0.26, 0.28, 0.3, 0.35, 0.4 y 0.5. Resultados. Para las la temperatura, no hubo diferencias entre las mediciones realizadas con y sin humidificador de burbuja. Para la humedad relativa, sólo hubo diferencias estadísticamente significativas a concentraciones de oxígeno altas (> 0.35), pero con escaso cambio en la entrega de humedad absoluta. Cuando se utilizó flujos operativos ≥ 6 L/min se activó la válvula liberadora de presión del humidificador. Conclusión. El uso de humidificadores de burbuja asociados a sistemas de oxigenoterapia de concentración variable no genera un aumento significativo de la humedad entregada a concentraciones bajas de oxigeno, por lo cual se podría prescindir de su uso.
Background. The use of bubble humidifiers associated with oxygen therapy equipment is a common practice in hospitals in our country. However, the real contribution of humidity delivered by these equipments when used with variable concentration systems at different oxygen concentrations has not been evaluated. In addition, operating problems have been described in the delivery of oxygen when this type of humidifier has been used. Objetive. Determine the real contribution of humidity delivered by bubble humidifiers when used with variable concentration oxygen therapy systems. Methods. 10 Hudson RCI® brand bubble humidifiers with a pressure release valve were evaluated, which were connected to a variable concentration oxygen therapy system (Hudson RCI® brand, MULTI-VENT model). The relative humidity (RH) was measured in an acrylic chamber, where the injector of the oxygen therapy system was connected. To measure R.H. and temperature, a digital hygrometer (Veto®, Italy) and an analog hygrometer (Hygromat®, Germany) were used. Each measurement required a time of 5 minutes to achieve a stable value. Measurements of the relative humidity and temperature delivered by this system were made, with and without a humidifier, at oxygen concentrations of 0.24, 0.26, 0.28, 0.3, 0.35, 0.4 and 0.5. Results. For temperature, there were no differences between the measurements made with and without a bubble humidifier. For relative humidity, there were only statistically significant differences at high oxygen concentrations (> 0.35), but with little change in absolute humidity delivery. When operating flows ≥ 6 L/min were used, the humidifier pressure relief valve was activated. Conclusion. The use of bubble humidifiers associated with variable concentration oxygen therapy systems does not generate a significant increase in the humidity delivered at low oxygen concentrations, so their use could be dispensed with.

RESUMEN Introducción: La oxigenoterapia de alto flujo (OAF) y la ventilación no invasiva (VNI) son sistemas no invasivos que se administran post-extubación en pacientes COVID-19 para evitar la reintubación. Sin embargo, la evidencia sobre la elección de alguno de estos dispositivos no está muy clara. El objetivo fue determinar si el grupo que recibió OAF comparado con el grupo que recibió VNI se asocia a menor riesgo de reintubación en adultos con destete difícil y extubados por COVID-19. Material y métodos: Estudio cohorte retrospectivo en 206 registros de pacientes en destete difícil de ventilación mecánica en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI). El resultado primario fue reintubación en pacientes que fracasaron con OAF o VNI post-extubación y los resultados secundarios fueron estancia hospitalaria en UCI y mortalidad a los 90 días. Resultados: Doscientos seis pacientes cumplieron los criterios de inclusión, 102 pacientes en el grupo OAF y 104 pacientes en el grupo VNI. Durante el seguimiento de 72 horas, la tasa de reintubación en el grupo OAF fue mayor [n=24 (64,9%)] comparado con el grupo VNI [n=13 (35,1%)], mostrando en el análisis de Kaplan-Meier diferencias significativas (Log-Rank-Test p=0,005). La regresión de COX mostró mayor riesgo de reintubación en el grupo de OAF frente a VNI (HR 2,74; IC95% 1,42-5,68; p=0,007). No hubo diferencias en los días de hospitalización UCI (p=0,913) ni en mortalidad a los 90 días (Log-Rank-Test p=0,49). Conclusión: Este estudio observacional retrospectivo sugirió que la OAF frente al VNI se asoció a mayor riesgo de reintubación, pero no a mortalidad a los 90 días.
ABSTRACT Introduction: High flow oxygen therapy (HFO) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) are non-invasive systems that are administered post-extubation in COVID-19 patients to avoid reintubation. However, the evidence on the choice of any of these devices is not very clear. The objective was to determine if the group that received OAF compared to the group that received NIV is associated with a lower risk of reintubation in adults with difficult weaning and extubated due to COVID-19. Material and methods: Retrospective cohort study in 206 records of patients in difficult weaning from mechanical ventilation in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The primary outcome was reintubation in patients who failed HFO or post-extubation NIV, and the secondary outcomes were ICU hospital stay and 90-day mortality. Results: Two hundred and six patients met the inclusion criteria, 102 patients in the OAF group and 104 patients in the NIV group. During the 72-h follow-up, the reintubation rate in the HFO group was higher [n=24 (64,9%)] compared to the NIV group [n=13 (35,1%)], showing in the analysis of Kaplan-Meier significant differences (Log-Rank-Test p=0,005). COX regression showed a higher risk of reintubation in the HFO group compared to NIV (HR 2,74; 95%CI 1,42-5,68; p=0,007). There were no differences in ICU hospitalization days (p=0,913) or in 90-day mortality (Log-Rank-Test p=0,49). Conclusion: This retrospective observational study suggested that HFO versus NIV was associated with a higher risk of reintubation, but not with 90-day mortality.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive efficacy of a nomogram in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) undergoing treatment with a high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC).Methods:We conducted a retrospective observational study of patients with AHRF who received HFNC treatment. Data on complications, vital signs on the first day after enrollment, use of vasoactive drugs, Glasgow Coma Scale scores, and clinical respiratory parameters (respiratory rate, pulse oximetry oxygen saturation, and fraction of inspired oxygen) were meticulously recorded. The risk ratio for HFNC failure was computed using an online calculator.Results:Overall, 62 patients were included, of which 29 (46.77%) experienced HFNC failure. No significant differences were observed in age, sex, body mass index, complications, or sequential organ failure assessment scores between the two groups. However, compared with those who responded positively to HFNC treatment, individuals experiencing HFNC failure demonstrated a significant increase in acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ scores [ (15.15±5.01)score vs. (21.00±5.76)score; P<0.001 ]. Furthermore, HFNC treatment failure was associated with significantly higher ICU mortality rates [0 vs. 34.48%(10/29), P<0.01] and in-hospital mortality rates [3.03%(1/33) vs. 37.93%(11/29), P<0.01], as well as a marked prolongation of ICU stay [6(4,10)d vs. 11(6,17)d, P=0.012]. In the failure group, the nomogram-derived risk ratio was 0.80±0.18, which was significantly higher than that in the success group (0.65±0.18; P=0.009). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the nomogram for predicting HFNC failure was 0.76, with a sensitivity of 54.8% and a specificity of 93.6%. Conclusion:The nomogram, along with the online calculator, offers a straightforward and effective means for assessing the risk of treatment failure in patients with AHRF undergoing HFNC therapy.

Objective:To construct a predict model based on ultrasomics parameters that can identify moderate acute hypoxemic respiratory failure patients at risk of non-invasive respiratory strategies(NIRS) failure and evaluate its value.Methods:This is a prospective observational trial.The patients with moderate acute respiratory failure (100 mmHg≤PaO 2/FiO 2≤200 mmHg) in intensive care unit(ICU) ,emergency and respiratory ward of Changshu Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from Oct 2020 to Jan 2023 were included, NIRS failure is defined as death or intubation while on therapy.At admission time and 24 h after treatment vital signs,biological and ultrasound parameters were determined.The study subjects were randomly ( random number) divided into a development group (70%) and a validation group (30%).Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was performed.The treatment failure prediction models were constructed according to ultrasonic parameters combined with clinical parameters.The models were also validated by ROC curves, calibration curves, NRI index and decision curve analysis (DCA).The nomograms were drawn. Results:A total of 193 patients were included in the study, 137 were allocated to the development group, and 56 to the validation group, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. NIRS failed in 112 (58%) of 193 patients..Univariate analysis revealed that PaO 2/FiO 2, DE at the time of admission and 24 h in the failure group were found to be statistically lower than the success group, RV/LV was higher (all P<0.05). RR, LUS at 24 h in the failure group were higher and ROX index was lower (all P<0.01). In addition, more patients in the failure group received vasopressors ( P= 0.001). Use of vasopressors( OR=4.709, P=0.012), RR( OR=1.254, P=0.035), LUS( OR=1.250, P=0.037), RV/LV( OR=1.057, P=0.008), PaO 2/FiO 2 ( OR=0.950, P=0.001), DE ( OR=0.107, P=0.001) in the development group were independent risk factors for NIRS failure.ROC analysis revealed that model B achieved a larger area under curve (AUC) than model A in the development group, with their AUC values of 0.928 and 0.872 ( P=0.009), AUC of model A and model B in the validation group were 0.867 and 0.932 respectively ( P=0.07).Two prediction models showed a good degree of calibration (all P>0.05). NRI analysis showed significant improvement in the predictive power of model B ( P<0.01). DCA showed that the model B had a good net benefit between the threshold probabilities of 0-80%. Conclusions:Ultrasomics parameters combined with Clinical parameters can effectively predict NIRS failure in moderate acute hypoxemic respiratory failure patients.

Objective:To investigate the application value of ROX index in evaluating the effect of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) on patients diagnosed with respiratory failure, and to find a simpler and more effective method to observe the efficacy of HFNC.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Patients who were admitted to department of critical care medicine of the Tianjin Third Central Hospital from April 2020 to August 2022, diagnosed with type Ⅰ respiratory failure, and treated with HFNC after failure of conventional oxygen therapy were enrolled. Oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO 2), gas flow rate at the initial time of admission, and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2), FiO 2 and respiratory rate (RR) at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours of HFNC were collected, and ROX index was calculated. The patients with symptoms and PaO 2/FiO 2 improved after HFNC treatment and without higher respiratory support lately were defined as HFNC success, while other patients with symptoms worsening and needing follow-up non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) or invasive positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) were defined as HFNC failure. The tendency of changes in the ROX index at each time point was observed. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was plotted to obtain the optimum cut-off value of ROX index for predicting HFNC outcome and the optimal monitoring time point for HFNC. Results:A total of 142 patients were eventually enrolled, among whom 96 patients (67.61%) were in treated with HFNC successfully, while 46 patients (32.39%) were recorded as HFNC failure (39 patients and 7 patients received NIPPV or IPPV, respectively), with an overall intubation rate of 4.93% (7/142). Compared with the HFNC success group, the HFNC failure group had lower PaO 2/FiO 2 [mmHg (1 mmHg ≈ 0.133 kPa): 208.8±37.3 vs. 235.7±48.3, P < 0.01] and higher initial gas flow rate (L/min: 46.4±3.9 vs. 42.3±4.9, P < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference in gender, age, primary diagnosis, severity of disease, hemoglobin (Hb), C-reactive protein (CRP), and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) between the two groups. In the HFNC failure group, there were 12 patients (26.09%) received progressive oxygen therapy within 12 hours of HFNC, of which 3 patients (6.52%) occurred within 6 hours, while the other 9 patients (19.57%) occurred after 6 hours. The initial ROX index was not statistically significant between the two groups. Both groups showed a continuous increasing ROX index with longer treatment duration of HFNC, and the ROX index at all of the time points of the HFNC failure group was significantly lower than that of the HFNC success group with statistically significant difference (2 hours: 9.39±2.85 vs. 10.91±3.51, 4 hours: 8.62±2.29 vs. 11.40±3.18, 6 hours: 7.62±1.65 vs. 11.85±3.45, 8 hours: 7.79±1.59 vs. 11.62±3.10, 10 hours: 7.97±1.62 vs. 12.44±2.75, 12 hours: 8.84±2.51 vs. 12.45±3.03, all P < 0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the ROC curve (AUC) of ROX index assessing the effect of HFNC at the time of treating 6, 8 and 10 hours were better than 2, 4 and 12 hours (0.890, 0.903, 0.930 vs. 0.585, 0.738 and 0.829), indicating that the ROX index could determine the efficacy at the early stage of HFNC (within 6 hours). When the optimum cut-off value of ROX index was 8.78, the sensitivity was 90.6%, and the specificity was 76.5%. Conclusion:The ROX index at 6 hours of HFNC has a certain predictive value for the efficacy of HFNC with an optimum cut-off value of 8.78, which can provide clinical health care personnel a method for observing the efficacy of HFNC, and guide the correct selection of oxygen therapy modality at an early stage and timely adjustment of oxygen therapy strategy.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) combined with repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation (rPMS) on ankle motor function and balance of stroke patients. MethodsFrom April, 2022 to March, 2023, 96 patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College were randomly divided into control group (n = 32), rPMS group (n = 32) and combined group (n = 32). The control group received conventional rehabilitation; rPMS group received rPMS on the basis of the control group; and the combined group received HBOT on the basis of rPMS group, for two weeks. Before and after treatment, the plantar weight-bearing ratio of the affected side, Berg Balance Scale (BBS), active range of motion (AROM) of ankle dorsiflexion of the affected side, and integrated electromyographic (iEMG) values during maximum isometric contraction of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscles were measured. ResultsTwo cases dropped out in each group, and 90 cases were finally included, and no adverse events occurred during treatment. Before treatment, there was no significant difference in plantar weight-bearing ratio of the affected side, BBS score, AROM of ankle dorsiflexion of the affected side, and iEMG of tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius among three groups (F < 2.070, P > 0.05). After treatment, all the indicators significantly improved in all the groups (|t| > 27.004, P < 0.001), and they were better in the combined group than in rPMS group and the control group (P < 0.001); except the proportion of plantar weight-bearing on the affected side, the other indicators were better in rPMS group than in the control group (P < 0.001). ConclusionrPMS can promote the recovery of ankle motor function and balance of stroke patients, and the effect combining with HBOT is better.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of humidified high flow nasal cannula oxygen inhalation (HFNC) versus conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation on hypoxemia after complex ventral hernia surgery in elderly patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 80 elderly patients with hypoxemia after complex ventral hernia surgery who were admitted to Huadong Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from January 2021 to June 2022 were collected. There were 44 males and 36 females, aged (74±7)years. Of the 80 patients, 40 cases undergoing HFNC were allocated into HFNC group, and 40 cases undergoing conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation were allocated into conventional group, respectively. Observation indicators: (1) postoperative blood gas analysis; (2) postoperative complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA. Results:(1) Postoperative blood gas analysis. Before surgery and at 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days after surgery, the partial pressure of blood oxygen was (13.5±2.3)kPa, (13.4±3.2)kPa, (13.8±2.3)kPa, (13.7±2.0)kPa for the HFNC group, and (12.7±2.1)kPa, (12.9±2.4)kPa, (12.3±2.5)kPa, (13.9±2.1) kPa for the conventional group. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide was (5.6±0.7)kPa, (5.0±0.6)kPa, (4.7±0.6)kPa, (4.9±0.6)kPa for the HFNC group, and (5.6±0.6)kPa, (4.4±0.8)kPa, (5.0±4.8)kPa, (5.1±1.1)kPa for the conventional group. The saturation of blood oxygen was 97.8%±2.2%, 98.1%±2.1%, 98.9%±1.8%, 99.2%±2.0% for the HFNC group, and 97.8%±3.1%, 97.8%±2.1%, 99.0%±1.5%, 98.8%±2.0% for the conventional group. The oxygenation index was 259±28, 300±45, 352±46, 353±57 for the HFNC group, and 262±29, 297±54, 304±63, 345±53 for the conventional group, respectively. There was a significant difference in the interven-tion effect of partial pressure of blood oxygen between the two groups ( Fgroup=4.09, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the time effect or interaction effect ( Ftime=2.37, Finteraction=1.71, P>0.05). There were significant differences in the time effect and interaction effect of partial pressure of carbon dioxide between the two groups ( Ftime=7.23, Finteraction=13.21, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the intervention effect ( Fgroup=1.02, P>0.05). There was a significant difference in the time effect of saturation of blood oxygen between the two groups ( Ftime=5.54, P<0.05) and no significant difference in the intervention effect or interaction effect ( Fgroup=1.78, Finteraction=0.46, P>0.05). There were signifi-cant differences in the intervention effect, time effect, interaction effect of oxygenation index between the two groups ( Fgroup=8.21, Ftime=42.07, Finteraction=3.49, P<0.05). (2) Postoperative complications. The time in intensive care unit and cases with pulmonary infection were 3(3,3)days and 3 for the HFNC group, versus 6(5,7)days and 10 for the conventional group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( Z=27.50, χ2=4.50, P<0.05). Cases with atelectasis and endotrachead intubation were 0 and 1 for the HFNC group, versus 4 and 7 for the conventional group, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no death in either group. Conclusion:Humidified high flow oxygen inhalation has certain advantages over conventional nasal cannula oxygen inhalation in improving partial pressure of blood oxygen and oxygenation index after complex ventral hernia surgery in elderly patients.

Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) is mainly secondary to a variety of acquired brain injuries, with the highest incidence of traumatic brain injury. Multiple symptoms such as paroxysmal tachycardia, shortness of breath, hypertension, hyperthermia and dystonia can occur simultaneously and repeatedly. The pathophysiological mechanism of PSH is complex. At present, drug treatment is mainly used to control symptoms; however, the combined use of multiple drugs will bring different degrees of toxic and side effects to multiple organs such as liver, kidney and lung while inhibiting sympathetic excitement. This paper mainly reviews the recent advance in non-drug treatment of PSH after craniocerebral injury from 4 aspects: nutritional support, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, avoidance of adverse stimulation and family support to standardize the PSH comprehensive management, and reduce episodes in order to improve prognosis and provide reference for clinical treatment.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) with moderate typeⅡ respiratory failure, to clarify the feasibility of HFNC in the treatment of AECOPD, and to explore the influencing factors of HFNC failure.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled trial of non-inferiority. Patients with AECOPD with moderate type Ⅱ respiratory failure [arterial blood gas pH 7.25-7.35, partial pressure of arterial blood carbon dioxide (PaCO 2)> 50 mmHg] admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) from January 2018 to December 2021 were randomly assigned to the HFNC group and NIV group to receive respiratory support. The primary endpoint was the treatment failure rate. The secondary endpoints were blood gas analysis and vital signs at 1 h, 12 h, and 48 h, total duration of respiratory support, 28-day mortality, comfort score, ICU length of stay, and total length of stay. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the failure factors of HFNC treatment. Results:Totally 228 patients were randomly divided into two groups, 108 patients in the HFNC group and 110 patients in the NIV group. The treatment failure rate was 29.6% in the HFNC group and 25.5% in the NIV group. The risk difference of failure rate between the two groups was 4.18% (95% CI: -8.27%~16.48%, P=0.490), which was lower than the non-inferiority value of 9%. The most common causes of failure in the HFNC group were carbon dioxide retention and aggravation of respiratory distress, and the most common causes of failure in the NIV group were treatment intolerance and aggravation of respiratory distress. Treatment intolerance in the HFNC group was significantly lower than that in the NIV group (-29.02%, 95% CI -49.52%~-7.49%; P=0.004). After 1 h of treatment, the pH in both groups increased significantly, PaCO 2 decreased significantly and the oxygenation index increased significantly compared with baseline (all P < 0.05). PaCO 2 in both groups decreased gradually at 1 h, 12 h and 48 h after treatment, and the pH gradually increased. The average number of daily airway care interventions and the incidence of nasal and facial lesions in the HFNC group were significantly lower than those in the NIV group ( P < 0.05), while the comfort score in the HFNC group was significantly higher than that in the NIV group ( P=0.021). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the total duration of respiratory support, dyspnea score, ICU length of stay, total length of stay and 28-day mortality (all P > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ score (≥15), family NIV, history of cerebrovascular accident, PaCO 2 (≥60 mmHg) and respiratory rate (≥32 times/min) at 1 h were independent predictors of HFNC failure. Conclusions:HFNC is not inferior to NIV in the treatment of AECOPD complicated with moderate type Ⅱ respiratory failure. HFNC is an ideal choice of respiratory support for patients with NIV intolerance, but clinical application should pay attention to the influencing factors of its treatment failure.

Objective:To explore the effects of different initial flow rates of humidified high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy on weaning outcomes and comfort level among ICU patients with difficult weaning.Methods:A total of 99 ICU patients with difficult weaning received at Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital ICU from June 2019 to June 2021 were enrolled in the present study, they were assigned to 40 L/min group, 50 L/min group and 60 L/min group according to the random number table method, with 33 cases in each group. The weaning outcomes among three groups were compared, the degree of dryness of oral/nasal cavity, throat pain as well as vital signs and blood gas indexes were also compared before extubation and 30 min after the first humidified high flow nasal cannula (HHFNC) oxygen therapy.Results:There was no significant difference in length of stay in ICU and hospital, re-intubation within 7 days, the mortality within 28 days in ICU and the hospital among three groups ( P>0.05). The weaning success rate were 78.8% (24/33) and 77.4% (23/31) in 50 L/min group and 60 L/min, higher than in the 40 L/min group 53.1% (17/32), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.78, 4.09, both P<0.05). After oxygen therapy, the scores of dryness of oral/nasal cavity and throat pain in the 40 L/min group, 50 L/min group and 60 L/min group were (3.16 ± 0.77), (2.94 ± 0.80) and (3.27 ± 0.92), (3.09 ± 0.77), and (4.10 ± 1.01), (3.97 ± 1.40), the differences were statistically significant ( F=5.21, 9.26, both P<0.05), and the differences between 50 L/min group and 40 L/min group and 60 L/min group were statistically significant ( t values were 2.62-3.99, all P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in vital signs and blood gas indexes among the three groups before extubation and after oxygen therapy ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Humidified high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy for the ICU patients with difficult weaning, oxygen flow with 50L/min can not only effectively promote weaning success rate but also improve patients′ respiratory comfort level.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of closed-loop therapy system in adult non-mechanical ventilation patients in order to provide evidence-based basis for promoting the safety of oxygen therapy.Methods:Randomized controlled trials of closed-oxygen therapy system on the percentage within SpO 2 target, the incidence of hypoxaemia or hyperoxia, oxygen consumption, the mean oxygen therapy days, as well as the length of hospital stay in adult non-mechanical ventilation patients were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP from inception to June 30, 2022. Data extraction, and literature quality evaluation were performed by two researchers independently, RevMan 5.3 was used for meta-analysis. Results:A total of 5 articles including 502 patients were included. The results showed that the closed oxygen therapy system could significantly improve the percentage of time within SpO 2 target of patients ( SMD=1.56, 95% CI 1.22-1.90, Z=9.04, P<0.001) and reduce the percentage of time with hypoxaemia ( SMD=-0.35, 95% CI-0.50--0.19, Z=4.37, P<0.001) or hyperoxia ( SMD=-0.91, 95% CI-1.07--0.75, Z=11.04, P<0.001) of patients. Moreover, the mean oxygen flow rate of closed oxygen therapy ( SMD=-0.64, 95% CI-1.25--0.03, Z=2.07, P<0.05), the mean oxygen therapy days ( SMD=-0.55, 95%, CI-1.06--0.03, Z=2.08, P<0.05), as well as the length of hospital stay ( SMD=-1.68, 95% CI-2.22--1.14, Z=6.11, P<0.001) were lower than those of patients with manual adjustment systems. Conclusion:The closed oxygen therapy system can promote the safety of oxygen use, but it needs clinical application to further explore.

Psychomotor performance is the coordination of a sensory or ideational (cognitive) process and a motor activity. All sensorimotor processes involved in planning and execution of voluntary movements need oxygen supply and seem to be significantly disrupted in states of hypoxia. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has become a widely used treatment in routine medicine and sport medicine due to its beneficial effects on different aspects of human physiology and performance. This paper presents state-of-the-art data on the effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on different aspects of human psychomotor function. The therapy's influence on musculoskeletal properties and motor abilities as well as the effects of hyperbaric oxygenation on cognitive, myocardial and pulmonary functions are presented. In this review the molecular and physiological processes related to human psychomotor performance in response to hyperbaric oxygen are discussed to contribute to this fast-growing field of research in integrative medicine.
