Objective Respiratory failure represents a significant source of morbidity and mortality for surgical patients. High-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) is emerging as a potentially effective rescue therapy in patients failing conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Use of HFPV is often limited by concerns for potential effects on hemodynamics, which is particularly tenuous in patients immediately after cardiac surgery. In this manuscript we evaluated the effects of HFPV on gas exchange and cardiac hemodynamics in the immediate postoperative period after cardiac surgery, in comparison with CMV. Methods Twenty-four consecutive cardiac surgery patients were ventilated in immediate postoperative period with HFPV for two to four hours, then they switched to a CMV using the adaptive support ventilation mode for weaning. Arterial blood gases were performed during the first and second hour on HFPV, and at 45 minutes after initiation of CMV. Respiratory settings and invasive hemodynamic data (mixed venous oxygen saturation, central venous pressure, systemic and pulmonary blood pressure, cardiac output and index) were collected utilizing right heart pulmonary catheter and arterial lines during HFPV and CMV. Primary outcome was improvement in the ratio between partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen (P/F ratio) and changes in hemodynamics. Results Analysis of data for 24 patients revealed a significantly better P/F ratio during the first and second hour on HFPV, compared with a P/F ratio on CMV (420.0 ± 158.8, 459.2 ± 138.5, and 260.2 ± 98.5 respectively, p < 0.05), suggesting much better gas exchange on HFPV than on CMV. Hemodynamics were not affected by the mode of the ventilation. Conclusions Improvement in gas exchange, reflected in a significantly improved P/F ratio, wasn’t accompanied by worsening in hemodynamic parameters. The significant gains in the P/F ratio were lost when patients were switched to conventional ventilation. This data suggest that HFPV provides significantly better gas exchange compared with CMV and can be safely utilized in postoperative cardiac patients without any significant effect on hemodynamics. |
