Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of different levels of PEEP on the cardiocirculatory system in patients affected by the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)

Conditions

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
  • Mechanical Ventilation
  • ARDS, Human

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Physiological assesment

1. Arterial and mixed venous blood gas analysis. 2. Alveolar and physiologic dead space via volumetric capnometry, as well as carbon dioxide (CO2) production, end-tidal CO2 and mixed expired CO2 3. Respiratory system (Crs), chest wall (Ccw) and lung (Cl) compliance measurement via an end-inspiratory and end-expiratory pause. 4. Arterial blood pressure, central venous pressure (CVP), heart rate, cardiac output through the arterial pulse contour and transpulmonary thermodilution methods (PiCCO technology). Global end-diastolic volume, Intra-thoracic blood volume, Extravascular lung water will also be assessed. Respiratory hold maneuvers (at PEEP, and +10, +15 and +20 cmH2O) will be performed and CVP and cardiac output will be measured in the last 3 s of the 12 s inspiratory hold. Venous return curve will constructed and the zero-flow pressure recorded as the mean systemic filling pressure. 5. Urine flow in 1h and determination of the fractional excretion of sodium and creatinine.
