Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Clinically applicable methods for measuring FRC are currently lacking. This study presents a new method for FRC monitoring based on quantification of metabolic gas fluxes of O2 and CO2 during a short apnea. METHODS:Base line exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide was measured with indirect calorimetry. End-tidal ( approximately alveolar) O2 and CO2 concentrations were measured before and after a short apnea, 8-12 s, and FRC was calculated according to standard washin/washout formulas taking into account the increased solubility of CO2 in blood when the tension is increased during the apnea. The method was tested in a lung model with CO2 excretion and O2 consumption achieved by combustion of hydrogen and implemented in six ventilator-treated patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF). RESULTS:In the lung model the method showed excellent correlation (r = 0.98) with minimal bias (34 ml) and a good precision, limits of agreement being 160 and -230 ml, respectively, compared to the reference method. In six ARF patients changes in FRC induced by increase or decrease in PEEP and measured with the O2/CO2 flux FRC method corresponded well with changes in reference values of FRC (r = 0.76-0.94). CONCLUSIONS:A new method has been proposed in which FRC could be monitored from measurements of physiological fluxes of gases during a short apnea with the use of standard ICU equipment and some calculations. We anticipate that with further development, this technique could provide a new tool for monitoring respiratory changes and ventilator management in the ICU.
