Abstract:
Mechanical ventilation provides lifesaving support for patients with acute respiratory failure. However, the pressures and volumes required to maintain gas exchange can cause ventilator-induced lung injury. The current approach to mechanical ventilation involves attention to both tidal volume and airway pressures, in particular plateau pressures and driving pressures. The ventilator provides energy to overcome airway resistance and to inflate alveolar structures. This energy delivered to the respiratory system per unit time equals mechanical power. Calculation of mechanical power provides a composite number that integrates pressures, volumes, and respiratory rates. Increased levels of mechanical power have been associated with tissue injury in animal models. In patients, mechanical power can predict outcomes, such as ICU mortality, when used in multivariable analyses. Increases in mechanical power during the initial phase of ventilation have been associated with worse outcomes. Mechanical power calculations can be used in patients on noninvasive ventilation, and measurements of mechanical power have been used to compare ventilator modes. Calculation of mechanical power requires measurement of the area in a hysteresis loop. Alternatively, simplified formulas have been developed to provide this calculation. However, this information is not available on most ventilators. Therefore, clinicians will need to make this calculation. In summary, calculation of mechanical power provides an estimate of the energy requirements for mechanical ventilation based on a composite of factors, including airway resistance, lung elastance, respiratory rate, and tidal volume.

Abstract:
Mechanical ventilation is a common therapeutic modality required for the management of patients unable to maintain adequate intrinsic ventilation and oxygenation. Mechanical ventilators can be found within various hospital and nonhospital environments (ie, nursing homes, skilled nursing facilities, and patient’s home residence), but these devices generally require the skill of a multidisciplinary health care team to optimize therapeutic outcomes. Unfortunately, pharmacists have been excluded in the discussion of mechanical ventilation since this therapeutic modality may be perceived as irrelevant to drug utilization and the usual scope of practice of a hospital pharmacist. However, the pharmacist provides a crucial role as a member of the multidisciplinary team in the management of the mechanically ventilated patient by verifying accuracy of prescribed medications, providing recommendations of alternative drug selections, monitoring for drug and disease interactions, assisting in the development of institutional weaning protocols, and providing quality assessment of drug utilization. Pharmacists may be intimidated by the introduction of advanced ventilator microprocessor technology, but understanding and integrating ventilator management with the pharmacotherapeutic needs of the patient will ultimately help the pharmacist be a better qualified and respected practitioner. The goal of this article is to assist the pharmacy practitioner with a better understanding of mechanical ventilation and to apply this information to improve delivery of pharmaceutical care.

Abstract:
Recent reports linking serious tracheal injuries to various forms of high-frequency ventilation prompted this study. We compared the tracheal histopathology seen following standard-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation with that seen following high-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation, and two different forms of high-frequency jet ventilation. Twenty-six adult cats were examined. Each was mechanically ventilated for 16 hours. Seven received standard-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation at 20 breaths per minute. Seven received high-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation at 150 breaths per minute. Six received high-frequency jet ventilation at 250 breaths per minute via the Instrument Development Corporation VS600 jet ventilator (IDC). Six received high-frequency jet ventilation at 400 breaths per minute via the Bunnell Life Pulse jet ventilator (BLP). A semiquantitative histopathologic scoring system graded tracheal tissue changes. All forms of high-frequency ventilation produced significant inflammation (erosion, necrosis, and polymorphonuclear leukocyte infiltration) in the trachea in the region of the endotracheal tube tip. Conventional mechanical ventilation produced less histopathology than any form of high-frequency ventilation. Of all of the ventilators examined, the BLP, the ventilator operating at the fastest rate, produced the greatest loss of surface cilia and depletion of intracellular mucus. IDC high-frequency jet ventilation and high-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation produced nearly identical histologic injuries. In this study, significant tracheal damage occurred with all forms of high-frequency ventilation. The tracheal damage seen with high-frequency, conventional mechanical ventilation suggests that ventilator frequency, not delivery system, may be responsible for the injuries.

Abstract:
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic crisis has led to an international shortage of mechanical ventilation. Due to this shortfall, the surge of increasing number of patients to limited resources of mechanical ventilators has reinvigorated the interest in the concept of split ventilation or co-ventilation (ventilating more than one patient with the same ventilator). However, major medical societies have condemned the concept in a joint statement for multiple reasons. Materials and Methods: In this paper, we will describe the history of the concept, what is trending in the literature about it and along our modification to ventilate two patients with one ventilator. We will describe how to overcome such concerns regarding cross contamination, re-breathing, safely adjusting the settings for tidal volume and positive end expiratory pressure to each patient and how to safely monitor each patient. Main results: Our experimental setup shows that we can safely ventilate two patients using one ventilator. Conclusion: The concept of ventilating more than one patient with a single ventilator is feasible especially in crisis situations. However, we caution that it has to be done under careful monitoring with expertise in mechanical ventilation. More research and investment are crucially needed in this current pandemic crisis.

Abstract:
Recent modes of ventilatory support aim to facilitate weaning and minimise the physiological disadvantages of intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV). Intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) allows the patient to breathe spontaneously in between ventilator breaths. Mandatory minute volume ventilation (MMV) ensures that the patient always receives a preset minute volume, made up of both spontaneous and ventilator breaths. Pressure supported (assisted) respiration is augmentation of a spontaneous breath up to a preset pressure level, and is different from ‘triggering’, which is a patient-initiated ventilator breath. Other modes or refinements of IPPV include high frequency ventilation, expiratory retard, differential lung ventilation, inversed ratio ventilation, ‘sighs’, varied inspiratory flow waveforms and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. While these techniques have useful applications in selective situations, IPPV remains the mainstay of managing respiratory failure for most patients.

Abstract:
Kolandaivelu, Kumaran, and Chi-Sang Poon.A miniature mechanical ventilator for newborn mice. J. Appl. Physiol. 84(2): 733–739, 1998.—Transgenic/knockout mice with predefined mutations have become increasingly popular in biomedical research as models of human diseases. In some instances, the resulting mutation may cause cardiorespiratory distress in the neonatal or adult animals and may necessitate resuscitation. Here we describe the design and testing of a miniature and versatile ventilator that can deliver varying ventilatory support modes, including conventional mechanical ventilation and high-frequency ventilation, to animals as small as the newborn mouse. With a double-piston body chamber design, the device circumvents the problem of air leakage and obviates the need for invasive procedures such as endotracheal intubation, which are particularly important in ventilating small animals. Preliminary tests on newborn mice as early as postnatal day 0 demonstrated satisfactory restoration of pulmonary ventilation and the prevention of respiratory failure in mutant mice that are prone to respiratory depression. This device may prove useful in the postnatal management of transgenic/knockout mice with genetically inflicted respiratory disorders.

Abstract:
Background: Lung-protective ventilation is key in bridging patients suffering from COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to recovery. However, resource and personnel limitations during pandemics complicate the implementation of lung-protective protocols. Automated ventilation modes may prove decisive in these settings enabling higher degrees of lung-protective ventilation than conventional modes. Method: Prospective study at a Swiss university hospital. Critically ill, mechanically ventilated COVID-19 ARDS patients were allocated, by study-blinded coordinating staff, to either closed-loop or conventional mechanical ventilation, based on mechanical ventilator availability. Primary outcome was the overall achieved percentage of lung-protective ventilation in closed-loop versus conventional mechanical ventilation, assessed minute-by-minute, during the initial 7 days and overall mechanical ventilation time. Lung-protective ventilation was defined as the combined target of tidal volume <8 ml per kg of ideal body weight, dynamic driving pressure <15 cmH2O, peak pressure <30 cmH2O, peripheral oxygen saturation ≥88% and dynamic mechanical power <17 J/min. Results: Forty COVID-19 ARDS patients, accounting for 1,048,630 minutes (728 days) of cumulative mechanical ventilation, allocated to either closed-loop (n = 23) or conventional ventilation (n = 17), presenting with a median paO2/ FiO2 ratio of 92 [72-147] mmHg and a static compliance of 18 [11-25] ml/cmH2O, were mechanically ventilated for 11 [4-25] days and had a 28-day mortality rate of 20%. During the initial 7 days of mechanical ventilation, patients in the closed-loop group were ventilated lung-protectively for 65% of the time versus 38% in the conventional group (Odds Ratio, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.76-1.82; P < 0.001) and for 45% versus 33% of overall mechanical ventilation time (Odds Ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.21-1.23; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Among critically ill, mechanically ventilated COVID-19 ARDS patients during an early highpoint of the pandemic, mechanical ventilation using a closed-loop mode was associated with a higher degree of lung-protective ventilation than was conventional mechanical ventilation.

Abstract:
Objective: Several studies evaluated the effectiveness of the ventilator care bundle in reducing the occurrence of ventilatorassociated pneumonia. The ventilator care bundle efficacy in early mechanical ventilation weaning has not been adequately assessed. The study aimed to investigate the weaning success among chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients following ventilator care bundle application.Methods: This study is quasi-experimental, recruiting 80 mechanically ventilated COPD patients (40 patients for each bundle and control group). It was conducted at the respiratory intensive care units (ICUs) at Mansoura University Hospital, Egypt. Data were collected using a mechanically ventilated patient (MVP) assessment tool, a ventilator care bundle compliance checklist, and MVP evaluation tools based on the Burns’ Wean Assessment Program (BWAP) checklist and the patient’s ventilation indicators.Results: The results revealed that almost 75% of the bundle group was successfully weaned from invasive mechanical ventilation at the first attempt of the spontaneous breathing trial compared with 32.5% of the control group. The ventilation duration and length of ICU stay were reduced in the bundle compared with the control group.Conclusions: The bundle group demonstrated higher weaning scores than the control group. Therefore, we recommend the integration of the ventilator care bundle in the weaning trial of MVPs to accelerate weaning and reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation.

Abstract:
For investigating the effects of mechanical ventilation on the respiratory system, experiments in small mammal models are used. However, conventional ventilators for small animals are usually limited to a specific ventilation mode, and in particular to passive expiration. Here, we present a computer-controlled research ventilator for small animals which provides conventional mechanical ventilation as well as new type ventilation profiles. Typical profiles of conventional mechanical ventilation, as well as flow-controlled expiration and sinusoidal ventilation profiles can be generated with our new ventilator. Flow control during expiration reduced the expiratory peak flow rate by 73% and increased the mean airway pressure by up to 1 mbar compared with conventional ventilation without increasing peak pressure and end-expiratory pressure. Our new ventilator for small animals allows for the application of various ventilation profiles. We could analyse the effects of applying conventional ventilation profiles, pressure-controlled ventilation and volume-controlled ventilation, as well as the novel flow-controlled ventilation profile. This new approach enables studying the mechanical properties of the respiratory system with an increased freedom for choosing independent ventilation parameters.

Abstract:
It is increasingly evident that there is little data available to compare the use of various modes of mechanical ventilation or to assess their application. It is difficult to compare the new modes of mechanical ventilation with the conventional modes because of a similar lack of clinical data. The challenge for future research in the area of ventilator technology is to generate controlled clinical studies to support its application. With the increased impact of financial constraints on healthcare, research will also need to examine the economic issues related to the application of newer modes of mechanical ventilation. The critical care nurse will be faced with the continued challenge of being knowledgeable regarding the current trends in ventilatory support and their potential advantages and disadvantages, while keeping in perspective those areas where clinical research is lacking. Possibilities for future nursing research related to mechanical ventilation are endless. The application and refinement of assessment parameters to evaluate the impact of nursing interventions on mechanically ventilated patients should be a key focus. The growing use of SVO2 monitoring in conjunction with other assessment parameters may prove to be useful tools to measure the impact of interventions such as suctioning, positioning, muscle reconditioning, weaning techniques, and comfort measures on mechanically ventilated patients.

Abstract:
Despite the fact that mechanical ventilation is an integral part of anaesthesia practice, its widespread use in veterinary medicine has yet to be established. The increasing needs and advances in animal pain management, being associated with anaesthetic protocols that can cause hypoventilation, make the use of mechanical ventilation more necessary than ever. Although mechanically ventilating the patient is not pivotal in a substantial number of surgical techniques, inability to do so precludes certain anaesthetic protocols from being used, making the choice of the drugs to be employed troubleshooting. Successful mechanical ventilation requires a thorough understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of respiration, as well as the way mechanical ventilation affects them. Before any attempt to describe mechanical ventilation, a glossary of technical terms has to be accepted, as long as consensus between the authors has not been found in the literature. Lung elasticity, resistance to flow, inspiration time and the ratio of inspiration to expiration time interact during mechanical ventilation affecting the final result on the patient. Volutrauma, barotrauma, ventilation-perfusion mismatch and cardiac output decrease are some of the adverse effects of mechanical ventilation. The choice of whether or not to use automatic ventilators, the choice of the right equipment and setting the variables correctly on the control panel need a thorough understanding of patient pathology. This article reviews respiration under normal and pathologic conditions and the effects mechanical ventilation exerts on different organ systems. Guidelines for the application of mechanical ventilation under various pathologic conditions are provided.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 disease can cause hypoxemic respiratory failure due to ARDS, requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. Although early studies reported that COVID-19-associated ARDS has distinctive features from ARDS of other causes, recent observational studies have demonstrated that ARDS related to COVID-19 shares common clinical characteristics and respiratory system mechanics with ARDS of other origins. Therefore, mechanical ventilation in these patients should be based on strategies aiming to mitigate ventilator-induced lung injury. Assisted mechanical ventilation should be applied early in the course of mechanical ventilation by considering evaluation and minimizing factors associated with patient-inflicted lung injury. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation should be considered in selected patients with refractory hypoxia not responding to conventional ventilation strategies. This review highlights the current and evolving practice in managing mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS related to COVID-19.

Abstract:
Background: Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation (PMV) is associated with a higher cost of care and increased morbidity and mortality. Patients requiring PMV are referred mostly to Long-Term Acute Care (LTAC) facilities. Objective: To determine if protocol-driven weaning from mechanical ventilator by Respiratory Therapist (RT) would result in quicker weaning from mechanical ventilation, cost-effectiveness, and decreased mortality. Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted that utilized protocol-driven ventilator weaning by respiratory therapist (RT) as a part of the Respiratory Disease Certification Program (RDCP). Results: 51 patients on mechanical ventilation before initiation of protocol-based ventilator weaning formed the control group. 111 patients on mechanical ventilation after implementation of the protocol formed the study group. Time to wean from the mechanical ventilation before the implementation of protocol-driven weaning by RT was 16.76 +/- 18.91 days, while that after the implementation of protocol was 7.67 +/- 6.58 days (p < 0.0001). Mortality proportion in patients after implementation of protocol-based ventilator weaning was 0.21 as compared to 0.37 in the control group (p=0.0153). The daily cost of patient care for the LTAC while on mechanical ventilation was $2200/day per patient while it was $ 1400/day per patient while not on mechanical ventilation leading to significant cost savings. Conclusion: Protocol-driven liberation from mechanical ventilation in LTAC by RT can significantly decrease the duration of a mechanical ventilator, leading to decreased mortality and cost savings.

Abstract:
Objective: There is alarming information on the usage of MV in PICUs from Asian nations. The goals of this research were to identify the patients' clinical profiles, traits, frequent causes of breathing problems, complications connected to ventilation problems, and ultimate outcomes. For admittance to the pediatric critical care unit, the criterion for mechanical ventilation (MV) is rigorous (ICU). It may be difficult to manage children in impoverished nations with minimal resources that need invasive ventilation. Methods: The information gathered included epidemiological trends, ventilation indications, problems, duration of use of the ventilator, and results. From January 2022 to December 2022, a retrospective analysis of kids who needed ventilator support in the Liaqaut National Hospital, Karachi was conducted. Results: The most frequent indications for ventilation in this research were impending respiratory arrest (34.6%) and a low Glasgow coma rating (17.8%). Of the 1172 patients who were brought to the PICU, 101 (8.6%) needed mechanical ventilation. 75% of the patients on mechanical ventilation were male, and 42% were newborns. We discuss the epidemiological patterns, prevalence, causes, and results of pediatric intensive care unit ventilator support cases. Planning better treatment plans in the future may assist improve outcomes, which can be achieved by analysis of this data. The average MV lasted 2.1 days. These kids had a 38.6% death rate. Conclusions: In summary, there is little MV activity in our PICU. The most frequent justification for mechanical ventilation was respiratory failure.

Abstract:
Patients with obstructive lung disease often require ventilatory support via invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation, depending on the severity of the exacerbation. The use of inhaled bronchodilators can significantly reduce airway resistance, contributing to the improvement of respiratory mechanics and patient-ventilator synchrony. Although various studies have been published on this topic, little is known about the effectiveness of the bronchodilators routinely prescribed for patients on mechanical ventilation or about the deposition of those drugs throughout the lungs. The inhaled bronchodilators most commonly used in ICUs are beta adrenergic agonists and anticholinergics. Various factors might influence the effect of bronchodilators, including ventilation mode, position of the spacer in the circuit, tube size, formulation, drug dose, severity of the disease, and patient-ventilator synchrony. Knowledge of the pharmacological properties of bronchodilators and the appropriate techniques for their administration is fundamental to optimizing the treatment of these patients.
