• Mechanical ventilation: invasive versus noninvasive .
• Keywords: acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation, pulmonary oedema.
• Mechanical ventilation is the most widely used supportive technique in intensive care units. ... More recently, however, new "noninvasive" ventilation (NIV) techniques, using patient/ventilator interfaces in the form of facial masks, have been designed. ...
• The reasons for promoting NIV include a better understanding of the role of ventilatory pump failure in the indications for mechanical ventilation, the development of ventilatory modalities able to work in synchrony with the patient, and the extensive recognition of complications associated with endotracheal intubation and standard mechanical ventilation. ...
• One important factor in success seems to be the early delivery of noninvasive ventilation during the course of respiratory failure. Noninvasive ventilation allows many of the complications associated with mechanical ventilation to be avoided, especially the occurrence of nosocomial infections. The current use of noninvasive ventilation is growing up, and is becoming a major therapeutic tool in the intensive care unit. ...

• High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation for the Prevention of Chronic Lung Disease of Prematurity .
• Background There remains uncertainty concerning the safety and efficacy of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation as compared with those of conventional ventilation for the respiratory support of very preterm infants. We conducted a multicenter trial to determine whether early intervention with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation reduced mortality and the incidence of chronic lung disease among newborns with a gestational age of 28 weeks or less. ...
• Methods We randomly assigned preterm infants with a gestational age of 23 to 28 weeks to either conventional ventilation or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation within one hour after birth. ...
• Results A total of 400 infants were assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, and 397 were assigned to conventional ventilation. The composite primary outcome (death or chronic lung disease, diagnosed at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age) occurred in 66 percent of the infants assigned to receive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and 68 percent of those in the conventional-ventilation group (relative risk in the group assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, 0. ... In both treatment groups treatment failure occurred in 10 percent of infants (relative risk in the group assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, 0. ...
• Conclusions The results obtained with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and conventional ventilation do not differ significantly in the early treatment of respiratory disease in very preterm infants. ...

• High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation versus Conventional Mechanical Ventilation for Very-Low-Birth-Weight Infants .
• the Neonatal Ventilation Study Group* .
• Background The efficacy and safety of early high-frequency oscillatory ventilation as compared with conventional synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation for the treatment of infants with very low birth weight have not been established. ...
• Methods We conducted a randomized, multicenter clinical trial to determine whether infants treated with early high-frequency oscillatory ventilation were more likely than infants treated with synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation to be alive without requiring supplemental oxygen at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age. Eligible infants weighed 601 to 1200 g at birth, were less than four hours of age, had received one dose of surfactant, and required ventilation with a mean airway pressure of at least 6 cm of water and a fraction of inspired oxygen of at least 0. ... Infants were stratified according to birth weight and exposure to prenatal corticosteroids and then randomly assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation or synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation. Ventilation was managed according to protocols designed to optimize lung inflation and blood gas values. ...
• Infants randomly assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation were successfully extubated earlier than infants assigned to synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (P<0. ... Of infants assigned to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, 56 percent were alive without a need for supplemental oxygen at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age, as compared with 47 percent of those receiving synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (P=0. ...
• Conclusions There was a small but significant benefit of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation in terms of the pulmonary outcome for very-low-birth-weight infants without an increase in the occurrence of other complications of premature birth. ...

• Spontaneous Breathing during Partial Liquid Ventilation in Animals with Meconium Aspiration .
• ABSTRACT Partial liquid ventilation (PLV) has been shown to improve gas exchange in paralyzed animals and humans with lung disease. The present study tests the hypothesis that PLV improves gas exchange in spontaneously breathing animals with meconium aspiration supported by proportional assist ventilation. Twenty-five adult anesthetized intubated rabbits with experimental meconium aspiration were randomized to gas ventilation (GV) or PLV while being supported by proportional assist ventilation. Minute ventilation, tidal volume, respiratory rate, mean airway pressure, heart rate, and mean arterial and pulmonary arterial pressure were recorded continuously. ... Minute ventilation and respiratory rate were higher during GV versus PLV, resulting in a slightly lower PaCO2 (3. ... We conclude that PLV improves oxygenation, lung compliance, and survival and results in less lung injury in spontaneously breathing animals with meconium aspiration when supported by proportional assist ventilation. ...

• Ventilation with Negative Airway Pressure Induces a Cytokine Response in Isolated Mouse Lung .
• We tested the hypothesis that, under relatively low tidal volume (VT) mechanical ventilation, continuing lung decruitment induced by negative end-expiratory pressure (NEEP) would increase the lung cytokine response, potentially contributing to lung injury. ... After 2 h of ventilation, lung lavage fluid was collected for measurements of tumor necrosis factor-, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and lactate dehydrogenase. Increases in plateau pressure before and after mechanical ventilation were significantly greater in the NEEP15 group compared with the zero end-expiratory pressure group or NEEP7 group. ... Atelectatic lung during repeated collapse and reopening of lung units accentuates the lung cytokine response that may contribute to lung injury even during relatively low VT mechanical ventilation. ...
• IMPLICATIONS:Repeated closing and reopening of lung units induced by negative end-expiratory pressure resulted in lung inflammation and cell injury even under mechanical ventilation using a normal tidal volume. This finding may have clinical relevance in certain patients who are prone to atelectasis during mechanical ventilation. ...
