Long Term Oxygen Therapy

Long term oxygen therapy (LTOT) has been shown to improve the survival rate in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients with severe resting hypoxemia by NOTT and MRC studies, published more than 25 years ago. The improved survival was found in patients who received oxygen for more than 15 hours/day. The effectiveness of LTOT has been documented only in stable COPD patients with severe chronic hypoxemia at rest (PaO255%. In fact no evidence supports the use of LTOT in COPD patients with moderate hypoxemia (55<PaO2<65 mmHg), and in those with decreased oxygen saturation (SO2<90%) during exercise or sleep. Furthermore, it is generally accepted without evidence that LTOT in clinical practice is warranted in other forms of chronic respiratory failure not due to COPD when arterial blood gas criteria match those established for COPD patients. The prescription of oxygen in these circumstances, as for unstable patients, increases the number of patients receiving supplemental oxygen and the related costs. Comorbidities are likely to affect both prognosis and health outcomes in COPD patients, but at the moment we do not know if LTOT in these patients with complex chronic diseases and mild-moderate hypoxemia could be of any use. For these reasons a critical revision of the actual guide lines indications for LTOT in order to optimise effectiveness and costs, and future research in the areas that have not previously been addressed by NOTT and MRC studies, are mandatory.

Gas Measurements

Arterial blood gas (ABGs) analysis forms the cornerstone of emergency respiratory investigation. In many situations values obtained dictate management strategy and facilitate decision-making. It is an uncomfortable procedure for the patients and if repeated ABGs are required, consider whether less invasive measures, such as respiratory rate, pulse oximetry or capillary blood gas measurements could be used....

Long Term Survivors

A total of 44 preterm fetal lambs at great risk of developing respiratory failure were delivered by Cesarean section, and were then managed on conventional mechanical pulmonary ventilation. Fifteen animals initially fared well, and 14 of these were long term survivors. Twenty-nine other lambs showed a progressive deterioration in arterial blood gases within 30 minutes of delivery, of which 10 lambs were continued on mechanical pulmonary ventilation (20% survival), while the remaining 19 lambs were placed on an extracorporeal membrane lung respiratory assist (79% survival). Extracorporeal membrane lung bypass rapidly corrected arterial blood gas values, and permitted the use of high levels of CPAP instead of the continuation of mechanical pulmonary ventilation at high peak airway pressures. Improvement in lung function was gradual, and predictable. Early institution of extracorporeal respiratory assist using a membrane artificial lung rapidly corrected arterial blood gas values and significantly improved on neonate survival.

Abstract Background: High frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) is an open ventilating technique to maintain ventilation for emergency or difficult airway. However, it is unclear whether jet ventilation or conventional oxygen therapy (COT) is more effectively and safely to maintain adequate oxygenation in patients with airway stenosis during bronchoscopic intervention (BI) under deep sedation.Methods: A prospective randomized cohort study was conducted to compare HFJV with normal frequency jet ventilation (NFJV) and COT (high flow oxygen) in oxygen supplementation during BI under deep sedation from March 2020 to August 2020. Patients receiving BI under deep sedation were randomly divided into 3 parallel groups of 50 patients each: the COT group (FiO21.0, 12 L/min), the NFJV Group (FiO2 1.0, driving pressure 0.1MPa, respiratory rate (RR) 15bpm) and HFJV Group (FiO2 1.0, driving pressure 0.1MPa, RR 1200bpm). SpO2, MBP and HR were recorded during the whole procedure. Arterial blood gas was examined and recorded at 15 minutes after initiation of procedure. Procedure duration, dose of anesthetics and adverse events during BI in the three groups were also recorded.Results: A total of 161 patients were enrolled with 11 patients excluded. Clinical characteristics were similar among the three groups. PaO2 of HFJV group was significantly higher than that of COT and NFJV group (P<0.001). PaO2 was significantly correlated with ventilation mode (P<0.001), BMI (P=0.019) and procedure duration (P=0.001). Multiple linear regression showed that only BMI and procedure duration were independent influencing factors of arterial blood gas PaO2 (P=0.040, P=0.002). The location of airway lesions and severity of airway stenosis were no statistical correlation with PaCO2 and PaO2.Conclusions: HFJV can effectively and safely improve intra-operative PaO2 in patients with airway stenosis during BI in deep sedation, and doesn’t increase intra-operative PaCO2 and the risk of hypercapnia. The location of airway lesions and severity of airway stenosis may not affect oxygenation maintain during basic and some advanced BI.Trial registration: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry.

Objective: To investigate whether high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy could reduce the rate of endotracheal intubation and improve arterial blood gas values, vital signs, and clinical outcomes of patients with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure as compared with conventional oxygen therapy alone. Methods: This retrospective, observational study was performed in the 15-month study period and included adult patients with tachypnea and hypoxemia, whose vital signs and arterial blood gas were monitored. The high-flow nasal cannula oxygen group consisted of patients admitted to the emergency department with acute respiratory failure when high-flow nasal cannula oxygen treatment was available in the hospital, while the conventional oxygen therapy group consisted of patients who have presented to the emergency department with acute respiratory failure in the absence of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen device in the hospital. The primary outcome of the study was improvement in vital signs and arterial blood gas values within first and fourth hours of the treatment. The second outcome was the need for intubation in the emergency department, length of hospital stay, and hospital mortality. Results: The decrease in the pulse and respiratory rate of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen–treated group was significantly greater than the conventional oxygen therapy group on the first and fourth hours of treatment (p < 0.001). PaO2 values were significantly higher in the high-flow nasal cannula oxygen group at the first and fourth hours of treatment (p ⩽ 0.001). Likewise, mean SaO2 levels of patients receiving high-flow nasal cannula oxygen treatment was significantly higher than those of patients in the conventional oxygen therapy group (p = 0.006 at 1 h and p < 0.001 at 4 h). In the hypercapnic patients, the decrease in PaCO2 and increase in pH and PaO2 values were significantly greater in high-flow nasal cannula oxygen group (p < 0.001). The difference between the groups regarding the need for invasive mechanical ventilation was not statistically significant (p = 0.179). Conclusion: High-flow nasal cannula oxygen treatment has been associated with favorable effects in vital signs and arterial blood gas values in patients with acute respiratory failure. High-flow nasal cannula oxygen might be considered as the first-line therapy for patients with hypoxemic and/or hypercapnic acute respiratory failure.
