Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study was to investigate the hemodynamic effects of two alveolar recruitment maneuver strategies in critical care patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Description:

Critical care patients are at risk of significant variations in blood volume due to long intervention times, major bleeding or serious pathological conditions, requiring invasive hemodynamic monitoring in routine practice, in order to optimize blood volume and ensure adequate perfusion of the organs, throughout their care.

The installation of an arterial catheter allows continuous monitoring of blood pressure and the realization of blood tests if necessary.

The installation of a central venous line allows the administration of anesthetic drugs and vasopressors as well as an accurate hemodynamic evaluation by transpulmonary thermodilution, which is the most commonly used monitoring in these situations.

After hemodynamic optimization following the monitoring data, the patient will be randomized to one of the two Alveolar Recruitment Maneuver (ARM) order strategies. Mechanical ventilation will be standardized according to current international recommendations (tidal volume between 6 mL.kg-1 and 8 mL.kg-1 of theoretical ideal weight (TIP) for patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS); PEEP equal to 6 cmH2O). Hemodynamic and ventilatory data will be collected (baseline).

The successive realization of the two ARM will then be carried out with collection of the hemodynamic and ventilatory data during the last 10 seconds of each ARM. Between each ARM, conventional ventilation will be resumed for 10 minutes in order to observe a wash-out period, and to allow a return to the baseline state. Data will also be collected as before.

After these measurements have been taken, all management will be left to the discretion of the practitioner caring for the patient.

Intervention

Procedure:
• Alveolar Recruitment Maneuver (ARM)
When patient is under general anesthesia, an arterial catheter is placed for cardiac output and stroke volume (SV) monitoring. To avoid pre-load dependency bias, the blood volume will be optimized. A 250mL fluid-challenge of a balanced crystalloid solution is administered under cover of the SV monitoring. If SV variation is greater than 10%, a new fluid-challenge is performed to obtain a reference SV, corresponding to the patient's optimal blood volume.The patient is then "pre-load independent". Then, patients will be randomized into two groups: a first group will receive a CPAP ARM: 40 cmH2O for 50 seconds, followed by a 10-minute break corresponding to a period of return to basal state; then an extended sigh ARM (e-sigh) also lasting 50seconds (driving pressure: 10cmH2O and successive PEEP levels at 10,15,20,25 and 30cmH2O, a respiratory rate set at 30/min in controlled pressure - 5cycles at each PEEP level); a second group will receive the same two ARM modalities in reverse order.
