superior or better than other?
 What is the optimal tidal volume?
 What is the “best” PEEP?
 How we can optimize patient–ventilator

Outcomes of patients included in the matched-case study
 Preservation of spontaneous breathing
 It may have important effects on VILI (not proven)
 Better cardiac output and oxygen delivery
Improvements in gas exchange
 Reduction in overall sedation requirements
APRV - Advantages
Putensen,
AJRCCM 2001;164:43
APRV - What is The Evidence
 Six studies (740 patients) and 2 RCT
 Most of the studies are small case series or cross-over
studies with surrogates of outcome or physiologic
endpoints such as oxygenation.
 One RCT enrolled 30 trauma patients with ARDS, APRV
with SB vs PC time cycled ventilation with sedation
and paralysis for 72 hours. Weaning in both group was
performed on APRV.
4968 Patients
563 (11.3 %) patients
were ventilated at least
one day with
APRV/BIPAP
1228 (24.7 %)
were ventilated
with AC all the time
234 patients
were ventilated all
the time with
APRV/BIPAP
234 were ventilated
with AC
Study Patients Controls
APRV - Discussion
 APRV/BIPAP were in a minority of patients (5.2 %).
 The major outcomes in a heterogeneous population of
mechanicaly ventilated patients were similar when
they are ventilated with APRV/BIPAP or with AC.
 The upper airway pressure was lower than peak airway
pressure and the low pressure was higher than PEEP.
 There was a lack of improvement in gas exchange
(may be to different population).
 The proportion of patients the received sedatives were
similar between the group.
Outcomes
 There were no differences in the proportion of patients
that received sedatives (73% in the APRV/BIPAP vs. 79
% in the AC group, p=0.08) or neuromuscular blocking
(11 % vs 9%; p=0.47)
 We excluded the 29 patients who received a
neuromuscular blocking agent irrespective of the
number of doses and did not change the results of the
outcome

Conclusions
 The use of NIV in the ICU has doubled
from 1998 to 2004 for all causes of
acute respiratory failure.
 The strong concordance of predicted
and observed practice changes
suggest that clinical trials have
influenced usual care over time.
Mechanical ventilation is useful
to “buy” time….
Meanwhile:
 To avoid to injury the lung (barotrauma,
volutrauma, atelectrauma..)
 To avoid the organ dysfunction
 To avoid the muscular atrophy
 To avoid the nosocomial infections

    Putensen, AJRCCM 2001;164:43 APRV -What is The Evidence  Six studies (740 patients) and 2 RCT  Most of the studies are small case series or cross-over studies with surrogates of outcome or physiologic endpoints such as oxygenation.  One RCT enrolled 30 trauma patients with ARDS, APRV with SB vs PC time cycled ventilation with sedation and paralysis for 72 hours. Weaning in both group was performed on APRV.

    APRV - Discussion APRV/BIPAP were in a minority of patients (5.2 %).  The major outcomes in a heterogeneous population of mechanicaly ventilated patients were similar when they are ventilated with APRV/BIPAP or with AC.  The upper airway pressure was lower than peak airway pressure and the low pressure was higher than PEEP.  There was a lack of improvement in gas exchange (may be to different population).  The proportion of patients the received sedatives were similar between the group.
  • 34.
    Outcomes  There wereno differences in the proportion of patients that received sedatives (73% in the APRV/BIPAP vs. 79 % in the AC group, p=0.08) or neuromuscular blocking (11 % vs 9%; p=0.47)  We excluded the 29 patients who received a neuromuscular blocking agent irrespective of the number of doses and did not change the results of the outcome

    Conclusions  The useof NIV in the ICU has doubled from 1998 to 2004 for all causes of acute respiratory failure.  The strong concordance of predicted and observed practice changes suggest that clinical trials have influenced usual care over time.

    Mechanical ventilation isuseful to “buy” time…. Meanwhile:  To avoid to injury the lung (barotrauma, volutrauma, atelectrauma..)  To avoid the organ dysfunction  To avoid the muscular atrophy  To avoid the nosocomial infections
