Abstract

Background: During pressure support ventilation (PSV), the accuracy of non-invasive indicators in diagnosing high or low inspiratory effort has been validated. However, the correlation and agreement of these indicators remain unclear. This study aims to investigate the correlation and agreement among non-invasive inspiratory effort indicators, and to compare characteristics of inspiratory effort in neurocritical and non-neurocritical patients.

Methods: This was a single-centre prospective observational study. We collected three non-invasive inspiratory effort indicators, pressure muscular index (PMI), the maximal negative swing of airway pressure during expiratory occlusion (ΔPocc), and the airway occlusion pressure during the first 100ms (P0.1). Cutoff values for these indicators derived from esophageal pressure-time product (PTPmus) were chosen for this study. The correlation and agreement of these indicators were analyzed using Spearman's rank correlation test and linear weighted Kappa analysis. Characteristics of PSV settings and inspiratory effort in neurocritical and non-neurocritical patients were compared.

Results: Ninety-seven patients were enrolled in this study. Correlation analysis showed a moderate correlation between PMI and ΔPocc (rho = -0.524, p < 0.001), ΔPocc and P0.1 (rho = 0.588, p < 0.001), while no correlation between PMI and P0.1 (rho = -0.140, p = 0.172). There was a moderate agreement between ΔPocc and P0.1 (k = 0.459, p < 0.001), a fair agreement between PMI and ΔPocc (k = 0.362, p < 0.001), but no agreement between PMI and P0.1 (k = 0.134, p = 0.072). The correlation of these indicators was similar in neurocritical patients compared with non-neurocritical patients, but agreement was poor.

Conclusion: The study showed that PMI and ΔPocc had moderate correlation and fair agreement, ΔPocc and P0.1 had moderate correlation and agreement, while PMI and P0.1 had no correlation and agreement.

期刊介绍： Frontiers in Medicine publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research linking basic research to clinical practice and patient care, as well as translating scientific advances into new therapies and diagnostic tools. Led by an outstanding Editorial Board of international experts, this multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide. In addition to papers that provide a link between basic research and clinical practice, a particular emphasis is given to studies that are directly relevant to patient care. In this spirit, the journal publishes the latest research results and medical knowledge that facilitate the translation of scientific advances into new therapies or diagnostic tools. The full listing of the Specialty Sections represented by Frontiers in Medicine is as listed below. As well as the established medical disciplines, Frontiers in Medicine is launching new sections that together will facilitate - the use of patient-reported outcomes under real world conditions - the exploitation of big data and the use of novel information and communication tools in the assessment of new medicines - the scientific bases for guidelines and decisions from regulatory authorities - access to medicinal products and medical devices worldwide - addressing the grand health challenges around the world
