Monitoring regional lung ventilation by functional electrical impedance tomography during assisted ventilation.

A new approach in discriminating the regional air volume changes in the lungs associated with either spontaneous or mechanical ventilation during assisted ventilation is presented. Impedance data are obtained by conventional electrical impedance tomography (EIT). The data are filtered in the range of either the spontaneous or the ventilator rate and processed by the functional EIT (f-EIT) evaluation technique, whereby the variation of the respective EIT data with time is determined and imaged. EIT measurements performed in an infant during synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation were evaluated with this method and indicated that the specific local lung volume swings related to spontaneous and mechanical inhalations can be separated and imaged as tomograms. This noninvasive approach may become useful in optimizing the ventilatory pattern during advanced forms of artificial ventilation and may help the clinician in the therapy management of individual patients.

[Lung function in premature infants can be improved. Surfactant therapy and CPAP reduce the need of respiratory support].

Randomised trials have shown exogenous surfactant therapy to reduce mortality and morbidity among very low birthweight (VLBW) infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Surfactant therapy is normally given to infants on mechanical ventilation. In the Stockholm area, 12 VLBW infants born after 27-30 gestational weeks and suffering from RDS were recently treated using the INSURE (Intubation-SURfactant-Extubation) approach--i.e., surfactant therapy during brief intubation, immediately followed by extubation and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. The treatment was successful in all 12 cases, the mean (+/- SD) a/A ratio increasing significantly from 0.17 +/- 0.04 before the INSURE procedure to 0.46 (0.12 after (P < 0.001). Only one infant later needed mechanical ventilation for RDS.
