Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients may present impaired in lung function and structure after hospital discharge that may be related to mechanical ventilation strategy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between functional and structural lung impairment, N-terminal-peptide type III procollagen (NT-PCP-III) and driving pressure during protective mechanical ventilation. It was a secondary analysis of data from randomized controlled trial that included patients with moderate/severe ARDS with at least one follow-up visit performed. We obtained serial measurements of plasma NT-PCP-III levels. Whole-lung computed tomography analysis and pulmonary function test were performed at 1 and 6 months of follow-up. A health-related quality of life survey after 6 months was also performed. RESULTS:Thirty-three patients were enrolled, and 21 patients survived after 6 months. In extubation day an association between driving pressure and NT-PCP-III was observed. At 1 and 6 months forced vital capacity (FVC) was negatively correlated to driving pressure (p < 0.01). At 6 months driving pressure was associated with lower FVC independently on tidal volume, plateau pressure and baseline static respiratory compliance after adjustments (r2 = 0.51, p = 0.02). There was a significant correlation between driving pressure and lung densities and nonaerated/poorly aerated lung volume after 6 months. Driving pressure was also related to general health domain of SF-36 at 6 months. CONCLUSION:Even in patients ventilated with protective tidal volume, higher driving pressure is associated with worse long-term pulmonary function and structure.
