Effect of Different Breathing Aids on Ventilation Distribution in Adults with Cystic Fibrosis

Background and objectives

We investigated the effect of different breathing aids on ventilation distribution in healthy adults and subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Methods

In 11 healthy adults and 9 adults with CF electrical impedance tomography measurements were performed during spontaneous breathing, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and positive expiratory pressure (PEP) therapy randomly applied in upright and lateral position. Spatial and temporal ventilation distribution was assessed.

Results

The proportion of ventilation directed to the dependent lung significantly increased in lateral position compared to upright in healthy and CF. This effect was enhanced with CPAP but neutralised with PEP, whereas the effect of PEP was larger in the healthy group. Temporal ventilation distribution showed exactly the opposite with homogenisation during CPAP and increased inhomogeneity with PEP.

Conclusions

PEP shows distinct differences to CPAP with respect to its impact on ventilation distribution in healthy adults and CF subjects EIT might be used to individualise respiratory physiotherapy.

Pulmonary Fissure Integrity and Collateral Ventilation in COPD Patients

Purpose

To investigate whether the integrity (completeness) of pulmonary fissures affects pulmonary function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Materials and Methods

A dataset consisting of 573 CT exams acquired on different subjects was collected from a COPD study. According to the global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease (GOLD) criteria, these subjects (examinations) were classified into five different subgroups, namely non-COPD (222 subjects), GOLD-I (83 subjects), GOLD-II (141 subjects), GOLD-III (63 subjects), and GOLD-IV (64 subjects), in terms of disease severity. An available computer tool was used to aid in an objective and efficient quantification of fissure integrity. The correlations between fissure integrity, and pulmonary functions (e.g., FEV1, and FEV1/FVC) and COPD severity were assessed using Pearson and Spearman''s correlation coefficients, respectively.

Results

For the five sub-groups ranging from non-COPD to GOLD-IV, the average integrities of the right oblique fissure (ROF) were 81.8%, 82.4%, 81.8%, 82.8%, and 80.2%, respectively; the average integrities of the right horizontal fissure (RHF) were 62.6%, 61.8%, 62.1%, 62.2%, and 62.3%, respectively; the average integrities of the left oblique fissure (LOF) were 82.0%, 83.2%, 81.7%, 82.0%, and 78.4%, respectively; and the average integrities of all fissures in the entire lung were 78.0%, 78.6%, 78.1%, 78.5%, and 76.4%, respectively. Their Pearson correlation coefficients with FEV1 and FE1/FVC range from 0.027 to 0.248 with p values larger than 0.05. Their Spearman correlation coefficients with COPD severity except GOLD-IV range from −0.013 to −0.073 with p values larger than 0.08.

Conclusion

There is no significant difference in fissure integrity for patients with different levels of disease severity, suggesting that the development of COPD does not change the completeness of pulmonary fissures and incomplete fissures alone may not contribute to the collateral ventilation.     

Disturbances of Pulmonary Function in Mitral Valve Disease

To study the sequence of changes in respiratory function that occur in the natural history of mitral stenosis, and the physiological basis of “cardiac dyspnea”, 30 patients with chronic mitral valve disease were subjected to detailed pulmonary function tests. There was no significant change in vital capacity and functional residual capacity. The reduction in maximal mid-expiratory flow rate showed excellent correlation with the respiratory symptoms. The pulmonary capillary blood volume was increased in moderately advanced cases but was consistently reduced in the severest cases. Hyperventilation was due to an increased respiratory rate. Dyspnea was associated with increased respiratory work owing to the interrelation between the reduction in diffusion capacity, compliance, cardiac output, the increase in airway resistance, and the uneven ventilation and perfusion of the lungs. The amount of “effort” required to breathe is incommensurate with the external load in these patients.

Effect of PEEP and Tidal Volume on Ventilation Distribution and End-Expiratory Lung Volume: A Prospective Experimental Animal and Pilot Clinical Study

Introduction

Lung-protective ventilation aims at using low tidal volumes (V_T) at optimum positive end-expiratory pressures (PEEP). Optimum PEEP should recruit atelectatic lung regions and avoid tidal recruitment and end-inspiratory overinflation. We examined the effect of V_T and PEEP on ventilation distribution, regional respiratory system compliance (C_RS), and end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) in an animal model of acute lung injury (ALI) and patients with ARDS by using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with the aim to assess tidal recruitment and overinflation.

Methods

EIT examinations were performed in 10 anaesthetized pigs with normal lungs ventilated at 5 and 10 ml/kg body weight V_T and 5 cmH₂O PEEP. After ALI induction, 10 ml/kg V_T and 10 cmH₂O PEEP were applied. Afterwards, PEEP was set according to the pressure-volume curve. Animals were randomized to either low or high V_T ventilation changed after 30 minutes in a crossover design. Ventilation distribution, regional C_RS and changes in EELV were analyzed. The same measures were determined in five ARDS patients examined during low and high V_T ventilation (6 and 10 (8) ml/kg) at three PEEP levels.

Results

In healthy animals, high compared to low V_T increased C_RS and ventilation in dependent lung regions implying tidal recruitment. ALI reduced C_RS and EELV in all regions without changing ventilation distribution. Pressure-volume curve-derived PEEP of 21±4 cmH₂O (mean±SD) resulted in comparable increase in C_RS in dependent and decrease in non-dependent regions at both V_T. This implied that tidal recruitment was avoided but end-inspiratory overinflation was present irrespective of V_T. In patients, regional C_RS differences between low and high V_T revealed high degree of tidal recruitment and low overinflation at 3±1 cmH₂O PEEP. Tidal recruitment decreased at 10±1 cmH₂O and was further reduced at 15±2 cmH₂O PEEP.

Conclusions

Tidal recruitment and end-inspiratory overinflation can be assessed by EIT-based analysis of regional C_RS.     

单光子发射计算机断层扫描肺灌注显像(SPECT/CT)在肺恶性肿瘤放疗中 的应用进展

放射性肺损伤是肺恶性肿瘤放疗后常见的并发症,其限制肺恶性肿瘤的放疗剂量并影响总体疗效及患者生存质量。本文复习放射性肺损伤发生机制及影响因素,分析剂量体积直方图、肺功能测定、TGF-β1等临床常用放射性肺损伤评估指标的利弊。参考近年文献,总结了单光子发射计算机断层扫描肺灌注显像(SPECT/CT)在肺恶性肿瘤放疗中的应用,从其原理、区域肺功能的显像、对放疗的评估与指导应用几方面阐述。认为SPECT/CT能实时反映区域肺功能、肺功能改变以及其解剖定位,可在放疗中起监测作用,对准确评估肺功能、预测放疗后肺损伤,优化放疗计划有重要价值。SPECT/CT肺灌注显像还需要多中心、大样本、长时间随访资料进一步深入研究。     

Observations on the Classification and Distribution of Pulmonary Emphysema in Canada

General principles of epidemiology are reviewed, using as an example the chronic non-specific respiratory diseases in Canada. Lack of agreement in definition and classification seriously hampers the use of governmental statistics to study the epidemiology of these diseases. Though Canada is experiencing a mid-century epidemic of deaths from emphysema, evidence is presented which suggests that provincial variation in this death rate is artificial and is likely apparent because physicians do not categorize deaths from this and related diseases in any similar fashion. Three-year-average age-standardized death rates by provincial areas for emphysema with or without bronchitis, asthma, chronic bronchitis and bronchiectasis are presented in evidence that provincial variation is largely obliterated when all chronic non-specific respiratory diseases are considered as a single nosological unit. Advantages and disadvantages of a recent clinical classification of these diseases are reviewed, and it is concluded that such a classification has a great deal to offer epidemiologists or clinicians studying the cause and natural history of these diseases.
