Objective To study the clinical feasibility of invasive mechanical ventilation with bilevel positive airway pressure（BiPAP） non-invasive ventilator in the stable patients needing prolonged mechanical ventilation.Methods Eleven patients with respiratory failure admitted in intensive care unit（ICU）of our department，who needed prolonged mechanical ventilation，between Jun 2004 and Nov 2007 were enrolled in the study and followed until death or Jan 2008.The arterial blood gas analysis data，length of stay(LOS)，LOS after changing to BiPAP non-invasive ventilator（Synchrony，Harmony，RESPIRONICS，VPAP III ST-A，RESMED），survival time after discharge(or fulfilled the discharge standards) were reviewed retrospectively.Results The settings of inspiratory pressure，expiratory pressure and respiratory rate of non-invasive ventilation were 21.3 (16-26) cm H2O，4 cm H2O，and 16 min-1，respectively.The LOS (or up to the discharge standard) was (91.5±50.2) days.The LOS (or up to the discharge standard) after changing to BiPAP ventilator was (23.5±12.2) days.The mean survival time after discharge (or up to the discharge standard) was (353.1±296.5) days.Four patients were still alive up to the end of the study.The arterial pH，PaCO2，PaO2，and SaO2 were not significant different before and after changing to BiPAP ventilator.Conclusion The mechanical ventilation with BiPAP non-invasive ventilator via tracheotomy tube is an alternative choice for stable patients needing prolonged mechanical ventilation.
ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors for tracheal stenosis caused by tracheotomy or intubation.MethodsFrom July 2010 to July 2020, a total of 44 patients were suffered with tracheal stenosis caused by tracheotomy or intubation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan Normal University as case group (n=44), and 34 patients were suffered tracheotomy or intubation without tracheal stenosis as control group (n=34). The clinical application of intratracheal tube cuff diameter was investigated by univariate comparison, ROC analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.ResultsUnivariate analysis showed intratracheal tube cuff diameter (C)/transverse diameter at the level of the clavicle >150%, intubation time>7d, tracheal intubations/tracheostomy ≥2, recurrent respiratory tract infections and replacement of tracheal tube≥ 2 were the influence factors of posttracheostomy tracheal stenosis (PTTS) and postintubation tracheal stenosis (PITS) (P<0.005). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed C/T>150% (OR=6.681, 95%CI: 1.164 - 38.363), intubation time>7d (OR=4.723, 95%CI: 1.413 - 15.779), tracheal intubations/tracheostomy ≥2 (OR=4.526, 95%CI: 1.133 - 18.083) and recurrent respiratory tract infections (OR=3.681, 95%CI: 1.177 - 11.513) were positively correlated with PTTS and PITS. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of C/T>150% was 0.665 with the sensitivity of 0.364 and the specificity of 0.033 (95%CI: 0.555 - 0.775). AUC of intubation time>7 d was 0.717 with the sensitivity of 0.568 and the specificity of 0.133 (95%CI: 0.613 - 0.821). AUC of tracheal intubations/tracheostomy ≥2 was 0.683 with the sensitivity of 0.432 and the specificity of 0.067 (95%CI: 0.574 - 0.791). AUC of recurrent respiratory tract infections was 0.707 with the sensitivity of 0.614 and the specificity of 0.200 (95%CI: 0.603 - 0.811). However, there was no statistically significant difference C/T>150% and those clinical data in Z test (Z=0.839, P=0.402; Z=0.302, P=0.763; Z=0.751, P=0.453).ConclusionIntubation time>7 d, tracheal intubations/tracheostomy ≥2, recurrent respiratory tract infections, replacement of tracheal tube≥ 2 and C/T>150% are risk factors for PTTS and PITS.
Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of different airway humidification methods in patients with tracheotomy in weaning process. Methods Twelve patients with tracheotomy in the medical intensive care unit ( MICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sue Yat-sen University fromSeptember 2008 to August 2009 were enrolled in which 45 case /times weaning tests in three different humidification ways were performed( 15 cases in each group) . Wet square gauze method was used in group A and traditional intermittent wet fluid drip method was used in group B. In group C, MR850 humidifier device, RT200 Venturi tube and T tube device were used to perform humidification. Comparisons were carried out between the three groups on sputum viscosity, comfort of patients before and after humidification, length of weaning time, frequencies of irritating coughs and phlegm formation during test period. Sputum viscosity was evaluated by airway secretion score ( AWSS) .Results There was no significant difference of sputum viscosity assessed by AWSS in group A before and after humidification( P gt; 0. 05 ) while AWSS was significantly increased in group B and group C ( P lt;0. 01) , implied that sputum viscosity was significantly lower than that of group A ( P lt;0. 05) . The scores of patients’comfortwere 3. 0 ±0. 4, 5. 0 ±1. 2, and 8. 0 ±1. 7 in groups A, B, and C respectively which mean that the patients in group C felt more comfortable than those in group A and group B ( P lt;0. 01) . Cough frequencies of groups A, B and C per hour were 0. 8,2. 6,and 0. 4 times/hour respectively in which the frequency of group B was significantly higher than those of group A and group C ( P lt;0. 01) . The frequency of phlegm formation in group A was 7 times in 15-times offline record, which was significantly higher than those in group B and group C ( P lt;0. 01) . Conclusions For the patients with tracheotomy in weaning process, MR850 humidifier device, RT200 Venturi tube and T tube device for humidification is superior in reducing sputum viscosity and phlegm formation, improving patient comfort, and reducing the occurrence of irritating cough.
Objective To explore the oxygen therapy effects of high-flow T-tube oxygen therapy on neurointensive care patients who have undergone tracheostomy and are undergoing mechanical ventilation while meeting the criteria for weaning from mechanical ventilation, especially in terms of controlling airway temperature and humidity, promoting mucus dilution, and reducing postoperative complications. MethodsCollected data from 50 neurointensive care patients who underwent tracheostomy and were on mechanical ventilation, meeting the criteria for weaning from mechanical ventilation, treated at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from September 2019 to September 2021. The three groups of patients had different weaning methods: a high-flow T-tube for weaning, a heat and moisture exchanger (artificial nose) for weaning, and a high-flow tracheal joint for weaning. The vital signs, dyspnea and blood gas analysis before and three days after weaning were collected. The primary outcomes were mechanical sputum excretion, postural drainage, phlegm-resolving drugs use, airway-related events (artificial airway blockage, artificial nose blockage, lung infection), stay in ICU (days), and death in ICU. Results Among the 50 patients, 28 were males and 22 were females. There were no significant differences in age, weight, height, gender, finger pulse oxygen saturation, heart rate, APACHEII score, sequential organ failure assessment, or Glasgow coma scale among the three groups (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the number of 72-hour mechanical sputum excretion or the use of phlegm-resolving drugs in the three groups (P=0.113, P=1.00). Conclusion The use of high-flow T-tube oxygen therapy in neurointensive care patients who have undergone tracheostomy, are on mechanical ventilation, and meet the criteria for weaning from mechanical ventilation can effectively control airway temperature and humidity, promote mucus dilution for better drainage, thereby reducing post-tracheostomy complications.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effectiveness of two kinds of treatment methods to nurse wound after tracheotomy. MethodsWe collected 108 cases and randomly divided them into two groups between March 2012 and May 2013. The experimental group (n=52) received tracheotomy care with PermaFoam dressing, while the control group (n=56) was treated with traditional sterile absorbent gauze. We analyzed the differences in terms of infection of wound, errhysis and frequency of dressing changes between the two groups. ResultsThe experimental group had a lower rate of wound infection than the control group (P<0.05). Moreover, the experimental group was superior to the control group in the total number of dressing changes, wound redness and oozing (P<0.05). ConclusionPermaFoam dressing can reduce wound complications and frequency of dressing changes effectively. It is easy to operate, and can reduce the workload of clinical nursing, and deserves clinical application.
