6 cmH2O continuous positive airway pressure versus conventional oxygen therapy in severe viral bronchiolitis: A randomized trial

Abstract: nCPAP rapidly decreased inspiratory work in young infants with acute bronchiolitis. Improvement in the respiratory distress score at 6 hr was proportional to the initial clinical severity, suggesting the importance of rapid nCPAP initiation in the more severe forms of the disease.

“…Third, acute bronchiolitis leading to PICU admission occurs often in babies aged 1 to 4 months. [2][3][4][5] The median age of our population was higher because in Italy younger babies are often admitted to NICUs owing to a relatively low number of PICUs. 35 Our population also had more severe parenchymal disease than the classic RSV clinical presentation; the high percentage of bacterial coinfection may explain the more severe hypoxia we found.…”

“…1 In infants with severe RSV bronchiolitis, CPAP reduces the esophageal pressure time product, and 6 to 7 cm H 2 O CPAP was associated with the greatest muscle unloading, improvement in breathing pattern, and favorable clinical outcome. [2][3][4] In this series, all infants needing NRS were ,1 year old. Younger children cope less well with NRS than older ones, who are more cooperative.…”

“…Early initiation of NIPPV on bronchiolitis patients needing it is important for improving patient outcomes [77]. If one can predict which bronchiolitis patients in the ED or general inpatient ward will need a specific type of NIPPV, admission could be directed to an inpatient unit that can deliver this type of NIPPV [76].…”

“…Um estudo de coorte retrospectivo demonstrou que após a implementação do CPAP nasal como primeira estratégia de suporte ventilatório na BVA houve uma redução do custo anual de internação de 715.000 euros 15 . Um estudo realizado por Milési et al 16 comparou o uso do CPAP à 6cmH 2 O com oxigenoterapia convencional em crianças de até seis meses de idade, internadas em UTI pediátrica com diagnóstico clínico de BVA. Os pacientes que utilizaram CPAP obtiveram uma redução mais rápida do trabalho respiratório.…”
