Impact of end-expiratory pressure fluctuation on tidal volume in the trilevel positive airway pressure mode.
Clinical Respiratory Journal 2020 July 14
INTRODUCTION: In noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV), the changes in the expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) directly affect the magnitude of the tidal volume.
OBJECTIVES: This experimental study aims to verify the precise effects of end-expiratory fluctuation on the body tidal volume to better assist NPPV in clinical practice.
METHODS: We selected the TestChest-simulated lung simulation of different populations, including healthy subjects (normal group), patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with emphysema as their primary phenotype (COPD1 group), and patients with COPD with bronchitis as their primary phenotype (COPD2 group).
RESULTS: Regarding the tidal volume curves of the three groups under various conditions, sixfold charts revealed that the tidal volume changed with the end-expiratory pressure fluctuations. In addition, regression coefficients for end-expiratory pressure fluctuations, (IPAP-EPAP) and (IPAP-EEPAP) exhibited a significant contribution to the tidal volume. The two coefficients in the normal, COPD1 and COPD2 groups were 52.294 and 10.414, 46.192 and -8.816, and 11.922 and 17.947, respectively. The circuit simulation results showed that the simulation curve fitted the experimental curve better by changing the coefficient of the descending edge of the expiratory phase.
CONCLUSIONS: The study results suggest that the end-expiratory pressure fluctuation affects the body tidal volume. Compared with the bilevel positive airway pressure (PAP), the trilevel PAP provides additional respiratory support to the body during a respiratory difference in initial respiration and descent.
