Item Effect of a new respiratory care bundle on bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm neonates(European Journal of Pediatrics, 2020) Ramos Navarro,Cristina; González Pacheco, Noelia; Sánchez de la Blanca, Ana Rodríguez; Sánchez Luna, Manuel RamónThe development of devices that can fix the tidal volume in high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) has allowed for a significant improvement in the management of HFOV. At our institution, this had led to the earlier use of HFOV and promoted a change in the treatment strategy involving the use of higher frequencies (above 15 Hz) and lower high-frequency tidal volumes (VThf). The purpose of this observational study was to assess how survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia grades 2 and 3 (SF-BPD) is influenced by these modifications in the respiratory strategy applied to preterm infants (gestational age < 32 weeks at birth) who required mechanical ventilation (MV) in the first 3 days of life. We compared a baseline period (2012-2013) against a period in which this strategy had been fully implemented (2016-2017). A total of 182 patients were exposed to MV in the first 3 days of life being a higher proportion on HFOV at day 3 in the second period 79.5% (n 35) in 2016-2017 vs 55.4% (n 31) in 2012-2013. After adjusting for perinatal risk factors, the second period is associated with an increased rate of SF-BPD (OR 2.28; CI 95% 1.072-4.878); this effect is more evident in neonates born at a gestational age of less than 29 weeks (OR 4.87; 95% CI 1.9-12.48).Conclusions : The early use of HFOV combined with the use of higher frequencies and very low VT was associated with an increase in the study population's SF-BPD. What is Known: • High-frequency ventilation with volume guarantee improve ventilation stability and has been shown to reduce lung damage in animal models. What is New: • The strategy of an earlier use of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation combined with the use of higher frequencies and lower tidal volume is associated to an increase in survival without bronchopulmonary dysplasia in our population of preterm infants.Item DCO2/PaCO2 correlation on high-frequency oscillatory ventilation combined with volume guarantee using increasing frequencies in an animal model(European Journal of Pediatrics, 2019) González Pacheco, Noelia; Sánchez Luna, Manuel Ramón; Arribas Sánchez, Cristina; Santos González, Martín; Orden Quinto, Cristina; Tendillo Cortijo, Francisco JavierTo examine the correlation DCO2/PaCO2 on high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) combined with volume guarantee (VG) throughout increasing frequencies in two different respiratory conditions, physiological and low compliance. Neonatal animal model was used, before and after a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). HFOV combined with VG was used. The frequency was increased from 10 to 20 Hz, and high-frequency tidal volume (VThf) was gradually decreased maintaining a constant DCO2. Arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) was evaluated after each frequency and VThf change. Six 2-day-old piglets were studied. A linear decrease in PaCO2 was observed throughout increasing frequencies in both respiratory conditions while maintaining a constant DCO2, showing a significant difference between the initial PaCO2 (at 10 Hz) and the PaCO2 obtained at 18 and 20 Hz. A new DCO2 equation (corrected DCO2) was calculated in order to better define the correlation between DCO2 and the observed PaCO2.Conclusion: The correlation DCO2/PaCO2 throughout increasing frequencies is not linear, showing a greater CO2 elimination efficiency at higher frequencies, in spite of maintaining a constant DCO2. So, using frequencies close to the resonant frequency of the respiratory system on HFOV combined with VG, optimizes the efficiency of gas exchange.What is Known: • The efficacy of CO2removal during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), described as the diffusion coefficient of CO2(DCO2) is related to the square of the high-frequency tidal volume (VThf) and the frequency (f), expressed as DCO2= VThf2× f.What is New: • The correlation between DCO2and PaCO2throughout increasing frequencies is not linear, showing a greater CO2elimination efficiency at higher frequencies. So, using very high frequencies on HFOV combined with volume guarantee optimizes the efficiency of gas exchange allowing to minimize lung injury.Item Lung recruitment in neonatal high‐frequency oscillatory ventilation with volume‐guarantee(Pediatric Pulmonology, 2022) Solís García, Gonzalo; González Pacheco, Noelia; Ramos Navarro, Cristina; Vigil Vázquez, Sara; Gutiérrez Vélez, Ana; Merino Hernández, Amaia; Rodríguez Sánchez De la Blanca, Ana; Sánchez Luna, Manuel RamónBackground and objectives: The optimal lung volume strategy during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is reached by performing recruitment maneuvers, usually guided by the response in oxygenation. In animal models, secondary spontaneous change in oscillation pressure amplitude (ΔPhf) associated with a progressive increase in mean airway pressure during HFOV combined with volume guarantee (HFOV-VG) identifies optimal lung recruitment. The aim of this study was to describe recruitment maneuvers in HFOV-VG and analyze whether changes in ΔPhf might be an early predictor for lung recruitment in newborn infants with severe respiratory failure. Design and methods: The prospective observational study was done in a tertiary-level neonatology department. Changes in ΔPhf were analyzed during standardized lung recruitment after initiating early rescue HFOV-VG in preterm infants with severe respiratory failure. Results: Twenty-seven patients were included, with a median gestational age of 24 weeks (interquartile range [IQR]: 23-25). Recruitment maneuvers were performed, median baseline mean airway pressure (mPaw) was 11 cm H2 O (IQR: 10-13), median critical lung opening mPaw during recruitment was 14 cm H2 O (IRQ: 12-16), and median optimal mPaw was 12 cm H2 O (IQR: 10-14, p < 0.01). Recruitment maneuvers were associated with an improvement in oxygenation (FiO2 : 65.0 vs. 45.0, p < 0.01, SpO2/FiO2 ratio: 117 vs. 217, p < 0.01). ΔPhf decreased significantly after lung recruitment (mean amplitude: 23.0 vs. 16.0, p < 0.01). Conclusion: In preterm infants with severe respiratory failure, the lung recruitment process can be effectively guided by ΔPhf on HFOV-VG.
