Brief Summary

Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is the most commonly used mode in mechanical ventilated patients. Studies have shown that over-assistance was prevalent in patients undergoing PSV. Up to now, no reliable method has been recommended to select an "optimal" inspiratory support level. Pressure muscle index (PMI) was introduced recently to evaluate the degree of spontaneous breathing effort. We hypothesize that PMI might be used as an indicator for over-assistance during PSV. In this randomized crossover study, inspiratory support is set at three levels according to negative, positive and zero PMI. Inspiratory effort, work of breathing, and respiratory mechanics are compared among the three inspiratory pressure support levels.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Inspiratory effort

    Inspiratory effort is measured as pressure generated by inspiratory muscles using esophageal pressure monitoring.

    30 minutes

  • Work of breathing

    Work of breathing is measured by the Campbell diagram and pressure-time-product using esophageal pressure monitoring.

    30 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Respiratory system compliance (ml/cmH2O)

    30 minutes

  • Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (mmHg)

    Partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood

  • Partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood (mmHg)

    30 minutes

  • Respiratory rate (breaths/min)

    30 minutes

  • Tidal volume (ml)

    30 minutes

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Inspiratory support level with PMI equal to -2

EXPERIMENTAL

PMI represents the difference between plateau airway pressure and peak airway pressure (plateau - peak) during an end-inspiratory airway occlusion.

Procedure: Inspiratory support level

Inspiratory support level with PMI equal to 0

EXPERIMENTAL

PMI represents the difference between plateau airway pressure and peak airway pressure (plateau - peak) during an end-inspiratory airway occlusion.

Procedure: Inspiratory support level

Inspiratory support level with PMI equal to +2

EXPERIMENTAL

PMI represents the difference between plateau airway pressure and peak airway pressure (plateau - peak) during an end-inspiratory airway occlusion.
