  1. Measuring end-expiratory lung volume Giacomo Bellani, M.D., Ph.D. University of Milano-Bicocca Monza, Italy giacomo.bellani1@unimib.it

  2. Conflicts of interest • Personal: • Lecturingfees from GE • Institutional, researchgrants from: • Draeger • Maquet • Chiesi Farmaceutici

  3. Which «lung volume» ? Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) Volume of gas in the lung at the end of a physiologic expiration Relaxation volume of respiratory system End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) Volume of gas in the lung at end expiration during mechanical ventilation with PEEP EELV @ 0 cmH2O= FRC

  4. How do we measure End-expiratory lung volume? • Whyshouldwemeasure end-expiratorylung volume?

  5. Techniques • CT scan • Precise quantitative assessment • Radiologicalexposure+patienttransfer • Closedcircuit • Need for a dedicatedtracer+closedsystem • No need for «fast» responseconcentrationmeasurements - offline measurement • Open circuit muti-breathwashin/washout • Potentially no need for a gas tracer • Fast responsemeasurement, synchrony with tidalventilation

  11. Derives N2concentration from: 100%- [CO2]- [CO2] • Uses end-tidalconcentration (no need for synchronization)

  15. Whyshouldwemeasure end-expiratorylung volume? EELV is profoundly reduced in ARDS • Estimate of alveolar recruitment • Determinant of VILI

  17. Alveolarrecruitment by P-V curve Maggiore S. et al, Am J RespCrit Care Med, 2001

  18. Effect of recruitment on FRC (0 cmH2O)

  20. A simplifiedapproach Assessing alveolar recruitment by EELV No recruitment EELV= 1300 ml Compliance=30 ml/cmH2O EELV= 1000 ml Expected EELV increase: 30 * 10= 300 ml PEEP=10 PEEP = 0 Recruitment EELV = 1600 ml

  21. 1950 l 1524 l Crs 29 expected EELV increase 174 ml true EELV increase 600 ml ∆EELV / PEEP change = 600 / 6 = 100 ml/cmH2O 2 35 1.8 30 1.6 25 1.4 1350 ml 1.2 Crs (ml/cmH2O) 20 EELV (l) 1 15 0.8 0.6 10 0.4 5 0.2 0 0 14 4 6 8 10 12 PEEP (cmH2O)

  23. SPECIFIC HYPERVENTILATION EELV VE (L/min) RATIO NORMAL 2500 < 7 < 2.8 ARDS 1000 > 15 > 15

  26. The role of tidal volume/EELV Bellani G et al., Am J Resp Crit Care Med, 2011

  27. Conclusions: • Measurement of end-expiratorylung volume isnowavailable: RESEARCH TOOL → CLINICAL TOOL • Useful in estimatinglungrecruitment • Can it help in setting PEEP? Yes • Isitbeingused to set PEEP? Don’tknow • Possiblerole in adjustingtidal volume?
