Dynamic driving pressure associated mortality in acute respiratory distress syndrome with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The survival predictors and optimal mechanical ventilator settings in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are uncertain. This study was designed to investigate the influences of clinical variables and mechanical ventilation settings on the outcomes for severe ARDS patients receiving ECMO.

Methods

We reviewed severe ARDS patients who received ECMO due to refractory hypoxemia from May 2006 to October 2015. Serial mechanical ventilator settings before and after ECMO and factors associated with survival were analyzed.

Results

A total of 158 severe ARDS patients received ECMO were finally analyzed. Overall intensive care unit (ICU) mortality was 55.1%. After ECMO initiation, tidal volume, peak inspiratory pressure and dynamic driving pressure were decreased, while positive end-expiratory pressure levels were relative maintained. After ECMO initiation, nonsurvivors had significantly higher dynamic driving pressure until day 7 than survivors. Cox proportional hazards regression model revealed that immunocompromised [hazard ratio 1.957; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.216-3.147; p = 0.006], Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score (hazard ratio 1.039; 95% CI 1.005-1.073; p = 0.023), ARDS duration before ECMO (hazard ratio 1.002; 95% CI 1.000-1.003; p = 0.029) and mean dynamic driving pressure from day 1 to 3 on ECMO (hazard ratio 1.070; 95% CI 1.026-1.116; p = 0.002) were independently associated with ICU mortality.

Conclusions

For severe ARDS patients receiving ECMO, immunocompromised status, APACHE II score and the duration of ARDS before ECMO initiation were significantly associated with ICU survival. Higher dynamic driving pressure during first 3 days of ECMO support was also independently associated with increased ICU mortality.

Project description:Rationale: Clinicians commonly use short-term physiologic markers to assess the benefit of ventilator adjustments. Improved arterial oxygen tension/pressure (PaO2)/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) after ventilator adjustment in acute respiratory distress syndrome is associated with lower mortality. However, as driving pressure (ΔP) reflects lung stress and strain, changes in ΔP may more accurately reflect benefits or harms of ventilator adjustments compared with changes in oxygenation.Objectives: We aimed to compare the association between mortality and the changes in PaO2/FiO2 and ΔP following protocolized ventilator changes.Methods: We assessed associations between mortality and changes in PaO2/FiO2 (ΔPaO2/FiO2) and ΔP (ΔΔP) after postrandomization positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and tidal volume adjustment in reanalyses of the ALVEOLI (Assessment of Low Tidal Volume and Elevated End-Expiratory Volume to Obviate Lung Injury) and ExPress (Expiratory Pressure) trials. We included subjects with available pre- and postintervention PaO2/FiO2 and ΔP (372 in ALVEOLI and 596 in ExPress). In each separate trial cohort, we performed multivariable Cox regression testing the association between ΔPaO2/FiO2 and ΔΔP with mortality.Results: In ALVEOLI, when analyzed as separate variables, ΔPaO2/FiO2 was associated with mortality only in subjects in whom PEEP increased, whereas ΔΔP was associated with mortality irrespective of direction of PEEP change. When modeled together, improved ΔPaO2/FiO2 was not associated with mortality, whereas ΔΔP remained associated with mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.50 per 5 cm H2O increase; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.21-1.85). When modeled together in ExPress, ΔΔP (aHR, 1.42; 95% CI, 1.14-1.78) was more strongly associated with mortality than ΔPaO2/FiO2 (aHR, 0.95 per 25 mm Hg increase; 95% CI, 0.90-1.00).Conclusions: Reduced ΔP following protocolized ventilator changes was more strongly and consistently associated with lower mortality than was increased PaO2/FiO2, making ΔΔP more informative about benefit from ventilator adjustments. Our results reinforce the primacy of ΔP, rather than oxygenation, as the key variable associated with outcome.

Project description:BackgroundMechanical power (MP) refers to the energy delivered by a ventilator to the respiratory system per unit of time. MP referenced to predicted body weight (PBW) or respiratory system compliance have better predictive value for mortality than MP alone in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Our objective was to assess the potential impact of consecutive changes of MP on hospital mortality among ARDS patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).MethodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of patients with severe ARDS receiving ECMO in a tertiary care referral center in Taiwan between May 2006 and October 2015. Serial changes of MP during ECMO were recorded.ResultsA total of 152 patients with severe ARDS rescued with ECMO were analyzed. Overall hospital mortality was 53.3%. There were no significant differences between survivors and nonsurvivors in terms of baseline values of MP or other ventilator settings. Cox regression models demonstrated that mean MP alone, MP referenced to PBW, and MP referenced to compliance during the first 3 days of ECMO were all independently associated with hospital mortality. Higher MP referenced to compliance (HR 2.289 [95% CI 1.214-4.314], p = 0.010) was associated with a higher risk of death than MP itself (HR 1.060 [95% CI 1.018-1.104], p = 0.005) or MP referenced to PBW (HR 1.004 [95% CI 1.002-1.007], p < 0.001). The 90-day hospital mortality of patients with high MP (> 14.4 J/min) during the first 3 days of ECMO was significantly higher than that of patients with low MP (≦ 14.4 J/min) (70.7% vs. 46.8%, p = 0.004), and the 90-day hospital mortality of patients with high MP referenced to compliance (> 0.53 J/min/ml/cm H2O) during the first 3 days of ECMO was significantly higher than that of patients with low MP referenced to compliance (≦ 0.53 J/min/ml/cm H2O) (63.6% vs. 29.7%, p < 0.001).ConclusionsMP during the first 3 days of ECMO was the only ventilatory variable independently associated with 90-day hospital mortality, and MP referenced to compliance during ECMO was more predictive for mortality than was MP alone.
