Clinical Trial Summary

Patients with ARDS often suffer a gravity-dependent alveolar collapse, resulting in a reduction of tidal volume, residual alveolar excessive distension, and ventilator-related lung injury(VILI) induced by unreasonable ventilator setting.Prone ventilation (PPV) improves the gravity-dependent alveolar ventilation and promotes lung recruitment in the gravity-dependent area and improves lung compliance. Previous studies showed that prolonged PPV combined with low tidal volume(LTV) lung protected ventilation can significantly reduce the mortality of patients with moderate to severe ARDS.Although more than 60% of patients with moderate to severe ARDS due to COVID-19 has been widely implemented PPV,studies showed an improvement in oxygenation in patients with ARDS(the P/F radio improved by more than 20% before and after PPV) was 9-77%, that is, That is, some patients are unresponsive to PPV. In addition, some patients showed CO2 responsiveness after PPV(ventilation rate (VR) decreased significantly after PPV).The tools for monitoring the effects of PPV on ventilation and blood flow at bedside are still lacking, Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, non-radiative, real-time bedside lung imaging technique that can monitor local lung ventilation distribution. This study intends to use EIT to evaluate pulmonary ventilation, blood flow distribution and local V/Q ratio before and after PPV, as well as to monitor the changes in pulmonary physiology before and after PPV, explore the mechanism of PPV improving oxygenation by combined with the changes in oxygenation, and explore the factors that predict and affect PPV responsiveness.


Clinical Trial Description

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is presented as acute hypoxemia and pulmonary edema due to the increased permeability of alveolar capillaries. Endothelial damage injury and swelling, microthrombosis, and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction can lead to low pulmonary blood vessels perfusion and even occlusion, while patients with ARDS often suffer a gravity-dependent alveolar collapse, resulting in a reduction of tidal volume, residual alveolar excessive distension, and ventilator-related lung injury(VILI) induced by unreasonable ventilator setting.Prone ventilation (PPV) improves the gravity-dependent alveolar ventilation and promotes lung recruitment in the gravity-dependent area and improves lung compliance. Besides, pulmonary blood perfusion is less affected by gravity distribution, thus the improvement of gravity-dependent alveolar ventilation can significantly reduce shunt, and lung heterogeneity and improve V/Q radio. Previous studies showed that prolonged PPV combined with low tidal volume lung protected ventilation can significantly reduce the mortality of patients with moderate to severe ARDS.Although more than 60% of patients with moderate to severe ARDS due to COVID-19 has been widely implemented PPV,studies showed an improvement in oxygenation in patients with ARDS(the P/F radio improved by more than 20% before and after PPV) was 9-77%, that is, That is, some patients are unresponsive to PPV. In addition, some patients showed CO2 responsiveness after PPV (ventilation rate (VR) decreased significantly after PPV).The tools for monitoring the effects of PPV on ventilation and blood flow at bedside are still lacking, Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, non-radiative, real-time bedside lung imaging technique that can monitor local lung ventilation distribution. By injecting hypertonic saline through a central vein catheter, we can obtain lung perfusion images to indicate local lung blood flow distribution. In addition, combined with lung ventilation images, we can evaluate the pulmonary shunt, dead space, V/Q ratio, to better clarify the physiological and pathological status of lung.This study intends to use EIT to evaluate pulmonary ventilation, blood flow distribution and local V/Q ratio before and after PPV, as well as to monitor the changes in pulmonary physiology before and after PPV, explore the mechanism of PPV improving oxygenation by combined with the changes in oxygenation, and explore the factors that predict and affect PPV responsiveness. ;
