Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are associated with postoperative mortality and prolonged hospital stay. Although intraoperative mechanical ventilation (MV) is a risk factor for PPCs, strategies addressing weaning from MV are understudied. In this systematic review, we evaluated weaning strategies and their effects on postoperative pulmonary outcomes. METHODS Our protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022379145). Eligible studies included randomised controlled trials and observational studies of adults weaned from MV in the operating room. Primary outcomes included atelectasis and oxygenation; secondary outcomes included lung volume changes and PPCs. Risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (RoB2) tool, and quality of evidence with the GRADE framework. RESULTS Screening identified 14 randomised controlled trials including 1719 patients; seven studies were limited to the weaning phase and seven included interventions not restricted to the weaning phase. Strategies combining pressure support ventilation (PSV) with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and low fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) improved atelectasis, oxygenation, and lung volumes. Low FiO2 improved atelectasis and oxygenation but might not improve lung volumes. A fixed-PEEP strategy led to no improvement in oxygenation or atelectasis; however, individualised PEEP with low FiO2 improved oxygenation and might be associated with reduced PPCs. Half of included studies are of moderate or high risk of bias; the overall quality of evidence is low. CONCLUSIONS There is limited research evaluating weaning from intraoperative MV. Based on low-quality evidence, PSV, individualised PEEP, and low FiO2 may be associated with reduced postoperative pulmonary outcomes. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL PROSPERO (CRD42022379145).

Effects of an open lung extubation strategy compared with a conventional extubation strategy on postoperative pulmonary complications after general anesthesia: a single-centre pilot randomized controlled trial. Can J Anaesth 2023; 70:1648-1659.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are a common cause of morbidity. Postoperative atelectasis is thought to be a significant risk factor in their development. Recent imaging studies suggest that patients' extubation may result in similar postoperative atelectasis regardless of the intraoperative mechanical ventilation strategy used. In this pilot trial, we hypothesized that a study investigating the effects of an open lung extubation strategy compared with a conventional one on PPCs would be feasible. METHODS We conducted a pilot, single-centre, double-blinded randomized controlled trial. Adult patients at moderate to high risk of PPCs and scheduled for elective surgery were eligible. Patients were randomized to an open lung extubation strategy (semirecumbent position, fraction of inspired oxygen [FIO2] 50%, pressure support ventilation, unchanged positive end-expiratory pressure) or to a conventional extubation strategy (dorsal decubitus position, FIO2 100%, manual bag ventilation). The primary feasibility outcome was global protocol adherence while the primary exploratory efficacy outcome was PPCs. RESULTS We randomized 35 patients to the conventional extubation group and 34 to the open lung extubation group. We observed a global protocol adherence of 96% (95% confidence interval, 88 to 99), which was not different between groups. Eight PPCs occurred (two in the conventional extubation group vs six in the open lung extubation group). Less postoperative supplemental oxygen and better lung aeration were observed in the open lung extubation group. CONCLUSIONS In this single-centre pilot trial, we observed excellent feasibility. A multicentre pilot trial comparing the effect of an open lung extubation strategy with that of a conventional extubation strategy on the occurrence of PPCs is feasible. STUDY REGISTRATION DATE ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04993001); registered 6 August 2021.

Abstract
Cough is a defensive airway reflex consisting of a modified respiratory act which involves the sequential activation of several laryngeal and respiratory muscles. The contraction of the latter results in thoraco-abdominal volume variations in order to provide enough amount of air available, the operating volume (OV), to be expelled. Because both posture and OV could influence muscular activation and thoraco-abdominal displacements during voluntary cough, we aimed to verify if and how they play a role during inspiratory (ICP) and expiratory (ECP) cough phases, in terms of flow, volumes and surface electromyography activity (sEMG). In 10 healthy subjects, we measured sEMG of 7 muscles (scalene, sternocleidomastoid, parasternal, intercostal, diaphragm (assessed at the 8th intercostal space), external abdominal oblique and rectus abdominis) in supine and seated position during cough maneuvers performed at 4 different OV measured by opto-electronic plethismography: total lung capacity (TLC), functional residual capacity and two intermediate volumes. The amplitude of sEMG signals tended to be maximal at TLC (p < 0.005) during ICP in the neck and parasternal muscles and during ECP in abdominal muscles. Postures slightly affected only sEMG of the thoracic muscles. sEMG data were similar (p > 0.05) in the other OV, but cough peak flow increased with OV. Thoraco-abdominal volume variations during cough were unaffected by posture and OV as well, being predominantly thoracic (supine: 60 and 64%; seated: 68 and 69%, respectively during ICP and ECP). Our results suggest that voluntary cough OV or posture do not have an important effect on voluntary cough that seems more likely to be resulting from a motor mechanism that activates a synergetic antagonistic contraction of inspiratory and expiratory muscles leading to a specific thoraco-abdominal pattern, in which the rib cage is the predominant.
