Computed Tomography Assessment of Positive End-expiratory Pressure-induced Alveolar Recruitment in Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) assessment of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-induced alveolar recruitment is classically achieved by quantifying the decrease in nonaerated lung parenchyma on a single juxtadiaphragmatic section (Gattinoni's method). This approach ignores the alveolar recruitment occurring in poorly aerated lung areas and may not reflect the alveolar recruitment of the entire lung. This study describes a new CT method in which PEEP-induced alveolar recruitment is computed as the volume of gas … Show more

“…This result suggests that recruitment and derecruitment is the dominant cause of volume change, rather than isotropic "balloon like", expansion of alveoli as had been traditionally thought, which is discussed in [16]. This elastic expansion hypothesis is also utilized by a variety of other clinical studies [18,19,20,8,13,14,21,22,9,23,24,25,26], and is in contrast to the in-vivo and clincally observed, more discrete open-closed behaviour employed here.…”

“…Salutary effects on recruitment are supported by CT regional aeration. If the combined change in poorly and non-aerated regional tissue weight relative to total weight is taken as an index of effective recruitment (modified from Malbouisson et al), 17 then recruitment with four hours of ventilation with BVV was 13% (5%) vs -0.3% (7%) with CMV (F = 4.1; P = 0.001 by unpaired Student's t-test). This modest recruitment effect translated into a 24% increase in normally aerated gas volume, suggesting significant restoration of effective gas exchanging units with BVV, similar to previous reports.…”

“…Os principais fatores que podem contribuir para a formação de atelectasias nessa situação são: reação inflamatória da circulação extracorpórea 3,23 , hipotermia, esternotomia, manipulação das cavidades pleurais, uso de bloqueadores neuromusculares e ventilação com altas frações de oxigênio inspiradas durante o período intraoperatório. O peso do coração também tem papel preponderante na formação de atelectasias, conforme demonstrado em investigação conduzida por Malbouisson e col. 24 . Observou-se no presente estudo que a oxigenação aumentou de forma simultânea com elevação do volume corrente exalado, demonstrando que o recrutamento de alvéolos 13 e Michalopoulos e col. 14 , estudando os efeitos da PEEP na oxigenação de pacientes após intervenção cirúrgica cardíaca, demonstraram que valores inferiores a 10 cmH 2 O não são efetivos para abrir unidades alveolares colapsadas.…”
