High-Frequency Oscillation Ventilation Versus Conventional Mechanical Ventilation in Very Preterm Infants With Perinatal Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Multicenters Randomized Controlled, Superiority Trial

Status: Recruiting

Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a complex disorder and remains the most common complication in very preterm infants. Its incidence is increased with gestational age from 95.5% among infants born at 22 weeks' gestation to 22.2% among those born at 29 weeks' gestation. BPD is associated with the increased risks of delayed neurodevelopment and pulmonary impairment. High incidences of BPD and morbidities indicate inadequacy of current management guidelines of BPD.3 Caffeine reduces the development of BPD by lowering the duration of intubation.4 How to further reduce the risk of BPD and the duration of invasive ventilation remain the key focus for neonatologists.

View:

• GA was between 24+0 and 31+6 weeks.

Treatments
Experimental: high frenquency oscillation ventilation (HFOV)
HFOV + volume guarantee (VG) as the intervention group HFOV was provided only with piston or membrane oscillators capable of delivering true oscillatory pressure with an active expiratory phase (i.e., Acutronic FABIAN-III, SLE 5000, Löwenstein Med LEONI+, or Sensormedics 3100A). Other machines offering high frequency ventilation were excluded. The lung recruitment maneuver was performed as previously described,15 and lung volume was assessed by chest radiography or lung ultrasound, targeting the right diaphragm at the level of 8th-9th rib (or 7th-8th rib in case of air leak).~Crossover between HFOV and CMV This study allowed infants who failed to respond to their assigned ventilation mode to receive a trial of the alternate mode. Crossover criteria for HFOV-assigned neonates included failure for 3 hours to maintain SpO2 ≥ 50% despite FiO2 of 1.0, PaCO2 \> 60 mmHg for 3 hours, or signs of ventilator-induced cardiac output reduction. Non-responders to HFOV were switched to CMV.
Active_comparator: conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV)
CMV was delivered by time-cycled, pressure-limited ventilators. Only pressure regulated volume control (PRVC) will be provided by any type of neonatal ventilator.~Crossover criteria for CMV-assigned neonates included failure for 3 hours to maintain SpO2 ≥ 50% despite FiO2 of 1.0, PaCO2 \> 60 mmHg for 3 hours, or requiring \> 30 cm H2O PIP to sustain ventilation. Non-responders to CMV were switched to HFOV.~in both groups, ventilator settings were adjusted at the discretion of the attending clinician to maintain a SpO2 between 90%-94%, a PaO2 between 50 and 80 mm Hg and a PaCO2 between 35 and 60 mm Hg and a pH between 7.20 and 7.45. PO2 and PCO2 levels were monitored using arterial blood gas analysis and/or transcutaneous monitoring.
