Comparison of mainstream end tidal carbon dioxide on Y-piece side versus patient side of heat and moisture exchanger filters in critically ill adult patients: a prospective observational study.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of the study was to investigate the accuracy of mainstream EtCO₂ measurements on the Y-piece (filtered) side of the heat and moisture exchanger filter (HMEF) in adult critically ill patients, compared to that on the patient (unfiltered) side of HMEF. We conducted a prospective observational method comparison study between July 2019 and December 2019. Critically ill adult patients receiving mechanical ventilation with HMEF were included. We performed a noninferiority comparison of the accuracy of EtCO₂ measurements on the two sides of HMEF. The accuracy was measured by the absolute difference between PaCO₂ and EtCO₂. We set the non-inferiority margin at + 1 mmHg in accuracy difference between the two sides of HMEF. We also assessed the agreement between PaCO₂ and EtCO₂ using Bland-Altman analysis. Among thirty-seven patients, the accuracy difference was - 0.14 mmHg (two-sided 90% CI - 0.58 to 0.29), and the upper limit of the CI did not exceed the predefined margin of + 1 mmHg, establishing non-inferiority of EtCO₂ on the Y-piece side of HMEF (P for non-inferiority < 0.001). In the Bland-Altman analyses, 95% limits of agreement between PaCO₂ and EtCO₂ were similar on both sides of HMEF (Y-piece side, - 8.67 to + 10.65 mmHg; patient side, - 8.93 to + 10.67 mmHg). The accuracy of mainstream EtCO₂ measurements on the Y-piece side of HMEF was noninferior to that on the patient side in critically ill adults. Mechanically ventilated adult patients could be accurately monitored with mainstream EtCO₂ on the Y-piece side of the HMEF unless their tidal volume was extremely low.

Project description:BackgroundThe end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2) can be used to estimate the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) in patients who undergo mechanical ventilation via endotracheal intubation. However, no reliable method for measuring PETCO2 during noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has been established. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation and agreement between PaCO2 and PETCO2 measured by these two methods and to compare them in patients who underwent NIV after extubation.MethodsThis study was a randomized, open-label, crossover trial in a mixed intensive care unit. We included patients who were planned for NIV after extubation and for whom the difference between PETCO2 and PaCO2 was ≤ 5 mmHg. We compared mainstream capnography using an inner cup via face mask (the novel method) with sidestream capnography (the previous method) during NIV. The relationships between PaCO2 and PETCO2 were evaluated by computing the Pearson correlation coefficient, and the agreement between PaCO2 and PETCO2 was estimated using the Bland-Altman method.ResultsFrom April 2020 to October 2021, 60 patients were included to the study. PaCO2 and PETCO2 were well correlated in both methods (the novel methods: r = 0.92, P < 0.001; the previous method: r = 0.79, P < 0.001). Mean bias between PaCO2 and PETCO2 measured using the novel method was 2.70 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.15-3.26) mmHg with 95% limits of agreement (LoA) ranging from - 1.61 to 7.02 mmHg, similar to the result of measurement during SBT (mean bias, 2.51; 95% CI, 2.00-3.02; 95% LoA, - 1.45 to 6.47 mmHg). In contrast, measurement using the previous method demonstrated a larger difference (mean bias, 6.22; 95% CI, 5.22-7.23; 95% LoA, - 1.54 to 13.99 mmHg).ConclusionThe current study demonstrated that the novel PETCO2 measurement was superior to the previous method for PaCO2 prediction. During NIV, the novel method may collect as sufficient exhalation sample as during intubation. Continuous PETCO2 measurement combined with peripheral oxygen saturation monitoring is expected to be useful for early recognition of respiratory failure among high-risk patients after extubation.

Project description:ObjectivesTranscutaneous carbon dioxide (Tc co2 ) monitoring can noninvasively assess ventilation by estimating carbon dioxide ( CO2 ) levels in the blood. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy of Tc co2 monitoring in critically ill children by comparing it to the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (Pa co2 ). In addition, we sought to determine the variation between Tc co2 and Pa co2 acceptable to clinicians to modify patient care and to determine which patient-level factors may affect the accuracy of Tc co2 measurements.DesignRetrospective observational cohort study.SettingSingle, quaternary care PICU from July 1, 2012, to August 1, 2020.PatientsIncluded participants were admitted to the PICU and received noninvasive ventilation support (i.e., continuous or bilevel positive airway pressure), conventional mechanical ventilation, or high-frequency oscillatory or percussive ventilation with Tc co2 measurements obtained within 15 minutes of Pa co2 measurement.InterventionsNone.Measurements and main resultsThree thousand four hundred seven paired arterial blood gas and Tc co2 measurements were obtained from 264 patients. Bland-Altman analysis revealed a bias of -4.4 mm Hg (95% CI, -27 to 18.3 mm Hg) for Tc co2 levels against Pa co2 levels on the first measurement pair for each patient, which fell within the acceptable range of ±5 mm Hg stated by surveyed clinicians, albeit with wide limits of agreement. The sensitivity and specificity of Tc co2 to diagnose hypercarbia were 93% and 71%, respectively. Vasoactive-Infusion Score (VIS), age, and self-identified Black/African American race confounded the relationship between Tc co2 with Pa co2 but percent fluid overload, weight-for-age, probe location, and severity of illness were not significantly associated with Tc co2 accuracy.ConclusionsTc co2 monitoring may be a useful adjunct to monitor ventilation in children with respiratory failure, but providers must be aware of the limitations to its accuracy.

Project description:Background: Systemic inflammation is a whole body reaction that can have an infection-positive (i.e. sepsis) or infection-negative origin. It is important to distinguish between septic and non-septic presentations early and reliably, because this has significant therapeutic implications for critically ill patients. We hypothesized that a molecular classifier based on a small number of RNAs expressed in peripheral blood could be discovered that would: 1) determine which patients with systemic inflammation had sepsis; 2) be robust across independent patient cohorts; 3) be insensitive to disease severity; and 4) provide diagnostic utility. The overall goal of this study was to identify and validate such a molecular classifier. Methods and Findings: We conducted an observational, non-interventional study of adult patients recruited from tertiary intensive care units (ICU). Biomarker discovery was conducted with an Australian cohort (n = 105) consisting of sepsis patients and post -surgical patients with infection-negative systemic inflammation. Using this cohort, a four-gene classifier consisting of a combination of CEACAM4, LAMP1, PLA2G7 and PLAC8 RNA biomarkers was identified. This classifier, designated SeptiCyteÂ® Lab, was externally validated using RT-qPCR and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis in five cohorts (n = 345) from the Netherlands. Cohort 1 (n=59) consisted of unambiguous septic cases and infection-negative systemic inflammation controls; SeptiCyteÂ® Lab gave an area under curve (AUC) of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.91-1.00). ROC analysis of a more heterogeneous group of patients (Cohorts 2-5; 249 patients after excluding 37 patients with infection likelihood possible) gave an AUC of 0.89 (95% CI: 0.85-0.93). Disease severity, as measured by Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score or the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) IV score, was not a significant confounding variable. The diagnostic utility o f SeptiCyteÂ® Lab was evaluated by comparison to various clinical and laboratory parameters that would be available to a clinician within 24 hours of ICU admission. SeptiCyteÂ® Lab was significantly better at differentiating sepsis from infection-negative systemic inflammation than all tested parameters, both singly and in various logistic combinations. SeptiCyteÂ® Lab more than halved the diagnostic error rate compared to PCT in all tested cohorts or cohort combinations. Conclusions: SeptiCyteÂ® Lab is a rapid molecular assay that may be clinically useful in the management of ICU patients with systemic inflammation.

Project description:IntroductionDynamic predictors of fluid responsiveness have shown good performance in mechanically ventilated patients at tidal volumes (Vt) > 8 mL kg-1. Nevertheless, most critically ill conditions demand lower Vt. We sought to evaluate the operative performance of several predictors of fluid responsiveness at Vt ≤ 8 mL kg-1 by using meta-regression and subgroup analyses.MethodsA sensitive search was conducted in the Embase and MEDLINE databases. We searched for studies prospectively assessing the operative performance of pulse pressure variation (PPV), stroke volume variation (SVV), end-expiratory occlusion test (EEOT), passive leg raising (PLR), inferior vena cava respiratory variability (Δ-IVC), mini-fluid challenge (m-FC), and tidal volume challenge (VtC), to predict fluid responsiveness in adult patients mechanically ventilated at Vt ≤ 8 ml kg-1, without respiratory effort and arrhythmias, published between 1999 and 2020. Operative performance was assessed using hierarchical and bivariate analyses, while subgroup analysis was used to evaluate variations in their operative performance and sources of heterogeneity. A sensitivity analysis based on the methodological quality of the studies included (QUADAS-2) was also performed.ResultsA total of 33 studies involving 1,352 patients were included for analysis. Areas under the curve (AUC) values for predictors of fluid responsiveness were: for PPV = 0.82, Δ-IVC = 0.86, SVV = 0.90, m-FC = 0.84, PLR = 0.84, EEOT = 0.92, and VtC = 0.92. According to subgroup analyses, variations in methods to measure cardiac output and in turn, to classify patients as responders or non-responders significantly influence the performance of PPV and SVV (p < 0.05). Operative performance of PPV was also significantly affected by the compliance of the respiratory system (p = 0.05), while type of patient (p < 0.01) and thresholds used to determine responsiveness significantly affected the predictability of SVV (p = 0.05). Similarly, volume of fluids infused to determine variation in cardiac output, significantly affected the performance of SVV (p = 0.01) and PLR (p < 0.01). Sensitivity analysis showed no variations in operative performance of PPV (p = 0.39), SVV (p = 0.23) and EEOT (p = 0.15).ConclusionMost predictors of fluid responsiveness reliably predict the response of cardiac output to volume expansion in adult patients mechanically ventilated at tidal volumes ≤ 8 ml kg-1. Nevertheless, technical and clinical variables might clearly influence on their operative performance.
