No drug has been approved to improve respiratory muscle function. However, we have previously shown that the calcium sensitizer levosimendan improves contractility of diaphragm muscle fibers in vitro and diaphragm contractility in healthy subjects in vivo. Objectives: To investigate the effects of levosimendan on diaphragm contractile efficiency in mechanically ventilated patients. Methods: In a double-blind placebo-controlled trial mechanically ventilated patients (N=39) performed two continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) trials for 30-minutes each with 5 hour interval. After the first CPAP trial, study medication (either levosimendan 0.2 µg/kg/min or placebo) was administered. During both trials electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdi), transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) and tidal volume (TV) were continuously measured. Neuromechanical efficiency (primary outcome parameter) was defined as ΔPdi/ΔEAdi. Results: Neuromechanical efficiency did not improve after levosimendan. However, ΔEAdi and tidal volume were higher after levosimendan administration (31% and 11%, respectively). P0.1, a measure for respiratory load, increased in the placebo group by 41%, while it remained constant in the levosimendan group. PaCO2 significantly decreased (44 mmHg vs 42 mmHg) in response to levosimendan administration. Conclusions: Although levosimendan did not improve diaphragm contractile efficiency, tidal volume increased, while P0.1 and PaCO2 decreased.","PeriodicalId":7201,"journal":{"name":"Acute critical care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80274626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However there is a lack of information in which variables better predict which patients will not benefit from this intervention. Objective: Our goal is to identify variables that could predict which patients will not benefit with HFNC for extubation failure prevention. Methods: Prospective interventional single center study in an intensive care unit in Argentina. We included patients with at least one pre-specified risk factor who required invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) for more than 48hs and passed a spontaneous breathing trial. HFNC was administered for the first 24hs following extubation. We divided extubation failure causes into those related with worsening of respiratory variables and non-respiratory related causes. Results: We include 165 patients. 40(24.2%) presented extubation failure, 18(10.9%) of which were for non-respiratory related causes and 22(13.3%) for worsening of respiratory variables. None of the pre-specified risk factors individually or combine between this were associated with extubation failure. The median of days of IMV prior to extubation was the only variable associated with extubation failure (5(3-6) vs 4(3-5), p=0.02) in the failure and success group respectively. Conclusions: Incidence of extubation failure in high risk patients receiving HFNC for extubation failure prevention was similar to that reported in previous trials. None of the pre-specified risk factors predicted extubation failure. Time of IMV prior to extubation was the only variable associated with extubation failure.","PeriodicalId":7201,"journal":{"name":"Acute critical care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76161443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aims: To evaluate the performance of the Trilogy Evo ventilator compared to parameters from user’s current ventilator. Methods: Patients treated with invasive mechanical ventilation via tracheostomy tube (IPAP 15.9 ± 3.2cmH2O, EPAP 5.3 ± 1.6cmH2O, and tidal volume 263 ± 166ml) were enrolled. At baseline, users were monitored on their current ventilator (LTV or Trilogy) for 15 minutes then were set-up on the Trilogy Evo for at least 15 minutes with one or more of the following circuits: Passive, ActivePAP, Active Flow and Dual Limb. Pulse oximetry (SpO2) and End Tidal CO2 (EtCO2) were recorded. Results: Thirteen participants (7 males, age 11.3 ± 10.1) completed the study. Modes utilized were SIMV-VC (n=9), S/T (n=3), and A/C-PC (n=1). Trilogy Evo passive circuit settings were IPAP 15.4 ± 3.7 cmH2O, EPAP 5.2 ± 1.5 cmH2O, and tidal volume 236 ± 166 ml. No clinical difference in EtCO2 mmHg (baseline 31.6 ± 6.3 vs Trilogy Evo 29.7 ± 6.9) or SpO2% (baseline 97.3 ± 1.8 vs Trilogy Evo 97.6 ± 1.2) were detected. In users with significant leaks around their trach tubes, the tidal volume and/or pressure settings needed to be decreased to match baseline therapy due to leak compensation algorithms with the passive circuit on Trilogy Evo. Conclusion: In this group of patients, Trilogy Evo provided effective ventilation based on SpO2 and EtCO2 values. The leak compensation capabilities may offer benefits to patients with airway leak issues.","PeriodicalId":7201,"journal":{"name":"Acute critical care","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88122618","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
