Respiratory failure & ventilation
Reliability of Respiratory System Compliance Calculation During Assisted Mechanical Ventilation: A Retrospective Study
Authors' conclusion
A P plat visually stable for at least 2 seconds leads to reliable C rs calculation during assisted MV.
Study context
- Population
- Adults (≥18 y) in a Neuro-ICU of a tertiary referral hospital with Crs measured in controlled and assisted mechanical ventilation (MV) within 60 minutes
- Participants
- 101 adults
- Exposure
- Crs calculation during assisted vs controlled MV
- Outcome
- Agreement of Crs, assisted vs controlled MV (Bland-Altman)
Methodological detailssingle-center
- Single-center
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Bland-Altman bias
−3.9
Upper level of agreement
21.6
Lower level of agreement
−29.6
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
Crs
P = 0.006
Crs by peak pressure lower or higher than Pplat (subgroup)
- No statistical difference in Crs (assisted vs controlled MV) when peak pressure was lower or higher than Pplat
