Tutorial: Pulmonary Function--Dr. Bhutani Clinical Case 695 g male neonate with RDS, treated with surfactant and on ventilatory support @ 18 hours age: Settings: 18 / 5 cm H20 x 45 breaths / min; FiO2 = 0.65 Driving Pressure: 18-5 = 13cm H20 Arterial Gas: pH = 7.3; PaO2 = 74; PaCO2 = 55 mmHg Is this baby a candidate for permissive hypercapnia?
Normocapnia varies? • Maternal:32 -34 mmHg (progesterone effect) • Fetal: 40 -42 mmHg • At birthing: 45 -65 mmHg • First day : 34 mmHg (progesterone effect) • After first week : 35 -42 mmHg • Term PCA: 35 -42 mmHg (RR = 40-60/min) • 52 wks PCA: 35 -42 mmHg (RR = 20-30/min)
Strategies to Prevent Non-Permissive Hypercapnia • Define optimum PaCO2 levels • Level to at which you will intervene • Level to at which you will wean • Ventilate at optimal FRC • Continuous monitoring of tidal volume • Use least pressure for maximal tidal volume • Facilitate spontaneous breathing • Consider “dual wean” of driving pressures • Consider pseudo-adaptive strategies
Alveolar Algebra: Ventilation • Alveolar Ventilation inversely correlated to PaCO2 • Alveolar Ventilation is (VT-VD) x rate • Provided dead space is constant: proportional changes in VT or rate will lead to proportional changes in alveolar ventilation and PaCO2. Based on Pulmonary Gas Law: in a steady state, when inspired CO2 is negligible, then PACO2 = 863 (VCO2 / VA); where, VCO2 is CO2 production; PACO2 is partial pressure of carbon dioxide; 863 is body temp. x std. pressure / standard temperature ( 310 X 760/273 = 863 )
Clinical Case 695 g male neonate with RDS, treated with surfactant and on ventilatory support and is now about 18 hours age and has stable vital signs, normotensive and is normoglycemic: Settings: PIP:18 cm H20; PEEP: 5 cm H20; SIMV: 45 br / min; Arterial Gas: pH = 7.3; PaO2 = 74; PaCO2 = 55 mmHg Is the Alveolar Ventilation compromised? If so, by how much?

Least Intervention or Barotrauma Ventilate at Optimal FRC • Increase Lung Volume : CPAP • Adequate Lung Inflation : T insp. • Adequate Lung Deflation : T exp. • Adjust T insp. / T exp. : by estimating Time Constants

Circuit Airflow • Airflow that is set, at operator’s discretion, to flow from inspiratory to expiratory circuits. • Magnitude dependent on patient’s minute ventilation • Excessive circuit airflow can lead to turbulence and may impede expiratory flow from the patient • Low flow may limit inspiratory airflow • Optimal circuit flow is about 5 to 8 fold minute ventilation
