Efeito da umidificação dos gases anestésicos nas propriedades físicas e transportabilidade do muco respiratório durante anestesia geral / Effects of inspired gases humidity on respiratory mucus in patients under general anesthesia

Claudia Simeire Albertini Yagi 09 October 2006 (has links)
Introdução: Em pacientes sob intubação endotraqueal os mecanismos fisiológicos de climatização do ar inspirado são anulados. Durante anestesia geral, quando os gases inspiratórios são ofertados secos e frios, a manutenção da umidade das vias aéreas é condição importante para prevenção de lesões da mucosa respiratória e ressecamento das secreções. Os sistemas de anestesia possuem propriedades de umidicação inerentes, decorrentes do sistema respiratório circular e a presença do absorvedor de CO2. Entretanto, os níveis de umidificação, durante a anestesia, dependem de vários fatores incluindo o tipo de ventilador anestésico, montagem do sistema respiratório e o fluxo de gás fresco utilizado. Porém não há dados na literatura que tenham investigado o efeito nos níveis de umidade do gás inspirado nas propriedades físicas e de transportabilidade do muco respiratório. Objetivo: Avaliar os níveis de Temperatura (T), umidade absoluta (UA) e umidade relativa (UR) do ar inspirado durante anestesia geral oferecidos pelo sistema circular valvular com absorção de CO2 e com a adição do HME em dois tipos de ventiladores (Dräger e Takaoka). Avaliar os efeitos do HME sobre os níveis de Temperatura e Umidade dos gases inspirados ofertados pelos dois equipamentos. Avaliar o impacto da umidade sobre as propriedades físicas e de transportabilidade do muco respiratório. Método: Foram selecionados 44 pacientes da Clínica Cirúrgica II do Departamento de Gastroenterologia do HCFMUSP com indicação de cirurgia abdominal eletiva e anestesia geral com duração superior a 4 horas. Os pacientes foram alocados em 4 grupos conforme o tipo do ventilador utilizado (Dräger ou Takaoka) e a presença ou ausência do HME. O muco respiratório e os dados de temperatura, UR e UA do gás ofertado foram coletados logo após a intubação endotraqueal, e a cada duas horas até o final da cirurgia. A análise do muco respiratório foi realizada através dos seguintes métodos: Transportabilidade mucociliar (MCT), em palato de rã; Transportabilidade pela tosse (TT), através da máquina simuladora da tosse e as propriedades de superfície, através do Ângulo de contato (AC). Resultado: O ventilador Dräger foi significantemente mais efetivo em ofertar níveis mais altos de T, UA e UR comparado ao ventilador Takaoka. A adição do HME aumentou a T e UA nos dois equipamentos. A UR aumentou somente no ventilador Takaoka. Houve um aumento do TMC e da TT no grupo que apresentou níveis mais altos de umidade (i.e. Dräger + HME). O AC não mostrou diferenças entre os quatro grupos. A análise longitudinal mostrou que o TMC foi positivamente afetado com o aumento da UA e UR. A TT foi positivamente afetada com a adição do HME. Conclusão: Nossos resultados mostram que o ventilador Dräger produziu níveis significantemente mais altos de umidade comparados ao ventilador Takaoka e que a adição do HME aumentou os níveis de umidade nos dois equipamentos estudados. Os equipamentos anestésicos e a adição do HME afetaram os níveis de umidade ofertados ao paciente durante a anestesia geral, e essas mudanças influenciaram a transportabilidade do muco respiratório / Background: In patients who are intubated, the natural mechanism of gas climatization by the nose and the upper airway is bypassed. During anesthesia, when the inspiratory gases are cold and dry, humidification of gases is recommended to prevent drying of the mucosal epithelium and respiratory secretions. The anesthesia systems have inherent humidifying properties as a result of the valvular rebreathing of some of the expired humidity and of the production of water in the CO2 absorber. However, the level of moisture in anesthetic ventilation is critically dependent on several factors that include the equipment, the arrangement of the circle breathing system and the fresh gas flow. To date the effect of humidity on respiratory mucus properties and transportability was not investigated. Objectives: The objective of this study was to measure the humidity and temperature of the inspired gas from a circle absorber system in two different ventilators (Dräger and Takaoka) and the effect of a heat and moisture exchanger (HME) on the inspired gas. Furthermore, we also evaluated the impact of humidity on in vitro mucus transportability and physical properties. Methods: We studied 44 patients with no pulmonary disease scheduled for elective surgery that were randomly allocated in four groups according to the anesthetic equipment (Dräger or Takaoka) and the absence or presence of HME. Respiratory mucus was collected and Temperature (T), absolute humidity (AH), relative humidity (RH) of inspired gases were recorded immediately after intubation (T0) and every 2 hours. In vitro respiratory mucus was studied by mucociliary transportability (MCT) by the frog palate method; cough clearance (CC) by the cough equipment, and contact angle (CA) by direct observation. Results: Dräger equipment delivered significantly higher levels of RH and AH when compared to Takaoka. The addition of HME increased AH and T in both equipments. RH was improved only in the Takaoka equipment. MCT, CC showed a non-significant trend to be higher in the group that provided the highest humidity (i.e Dräger + HME). CA did not change among groups. Longitudinal analysis showed that MCT was positively affected by an increase in AH and RH. CC was positively affected by the addition of HME. Conclusion: Our results showed that Dräger equipment was more effective in humidifying anesthetic gas than Takaoka. The performance of both equipments was improved when HME was added. The anesthetic equipment and the addition of HME affect the humidity delivered to the patient that in turn influences in vitro respiratory mucus transportability

Variable versus conventional lung protective mechanical ventilation during open abdominal surgery: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Spieth, Peter M., Güldner, Andreas, Uhlig, Christopher, Bluth, Thomas, Kiss, Thomas, Schultz, Marcus J., Pelosi, Paolo, Koch, Thea, Gamba de Abreu, Marcelo 17 April 2015 (has links)
Background: General anesthesia usually requires mechanical ventilation, which is traditionally accomplished with constant tidal volumes in volume- or pressure-controlled modes. Experimental studies suggest that the use of variable tidal volumes (variable ventilation) recruits lung tissue, improves pulmonary function and reduces systemic inflammatory response. However, it is currently not known whether patients undergoing open abdominal surgery might benefit from intraoperative variable ventilation. Methods/Design: The PROtective VARiable ventilation trial ('PROVAR') is a single center, randomized controlled trial enrolling 50 patients who are planning for open abdominal surgery expected to last longer than 3 hours. PROVAR compares conventional (non-variable) lung protective ventilation (CV) with variable lung protective ventilation (VV) regarding pulmonary function and inflammatory response. The primary endpoint of the study is the forced vital capacity on the first postoperative day. Secondary endpoints include further lung function tests, plasma cytokine levels, spatial distribution of ventilation assessed by means of electrical impedance tomography and postoperative pulmonary complications. Discussion: We hypothesize that VV improves lung function and reduces systemic inflammatory response compared to CV in patients receiving mechanical ventilation during general anesthesia for open abdominal surgery longer than 3 hours. PROVAR is the first randomized controlled trial aiming at intra- and postoperative effects of VV on lung function. This study may help to define the role of VV during general anesthesia requiring mechanical ventilation.

Bakgrund: Obesa utgör 10% av befolkningen i Sverige. De riskerar på grund av sin anatomi attdrabbas av lungkomplikationer efter generell anestesi. De har rätt till säker,evidensbaserad och individanpassad omvårdnad utifrån sina behov för att förebyggariskerna för onödigt lidande och samhällskostnad. Det är anestesisjuksköterskansansvar att leverera anestesiologisk omvårdnad av sådan kvalitet, och medkompetensutveckling utifrån evidens och ett patientsäkert förhållningssätt är detlångt ifrån omöjligt. Syfte: Kartlägga effekter av intraoperativa ventilationsmetoder och åtgärder somanestesisjuksköterskor kan tillämpa för förbättrad ventilation hos obesa patientersom genomgår generell anestesi. Metod: Systematisk litteraturstudie, 13 randomiserade kontrollerade studier som presenteratsgenom en narrativ syntes. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i tre kategorier av ventilationsmetoder eller åtgärder som kanförbättra obesa patienters ventilation. Ventilatorinställningar, Alveolär rekryteringoch Applikation av positivt tryck vid spontanandning. Slutsatser: Högt/individanpassat PEEP i kombination med lungrekrytering kan förbättra denintraoperativa ventilationen. Både VCV och PCV kan tillämpas för effektivventilation av obesa patienter, PCV, icke-invasiv ventilation med positivt tryck, ochinverterad respirationsratio kan ge bättre intraoperativ syresättning. Ingen kopplingmellan i resultatet förekommande ventilationsmetoder och minskade postoperativakomplikationer kunde påvisas. / Bakgrund: Överviktiga utgör 10% av sveriges befolkning.
