Abstract
High-flow nasal oxygen can be administered at induction of anaesthesia for the purposes of pre-oxygenation and apnoeic oxygenation. This intervention is claimed to enhance carbon dioxide elimination during apnoea, but the extent to which this occurs remains poorly quantified. The optimal nasal oxygen flow rate for gas exchange is also unknown. In this study, 114 patients received pre-oxygenation with high-flow nasal oxygen at 50 l.min-1. At the onset of apnoea, patients were allocated randomly to receive one of three nasal oxygen flow rates: 0 l.min-1; 70 l.min-1; or 120 l.min-1. After 4 minutes of apnoea, all oxygen delivery was ceased, tracheal intubation was performed, and oxygen delivery was recommenced when SpO2 was 92%. Mean (SD) PaCO2 rise during the first minute of apnoea was 1.39 (0.39) kPa, 1.41 (0.29) kPa, and 1.26 (0.38) kPa in the 0 l.min-1, 70 l.min-1 and 120 l.min-1 groups, respectively; p = 0.16. During the second, third and fourth minutes of apnoea, mean (SD) rates of rise in PaCO2 were 0.34 (0.08) kPa.min-1, 0.36 (0.06) kPa.min-1 and 0.37 (0.07) kPa.min-1 in the 0 l.min-1, 70 l.min-1 and 120 l.min-1 groups, respectively; p = 0.17. After 4 minutes of apnoea, median (IQR [range]) arterial oxygen partial pressures in the 0 l.min-1, 70 l.min-1 and 120 l.min-1 groups were 24.5 (18.6-31.4 [12.3-48.3]) kPa; 36.6 (28.1-43.8 [9.8-56.9]) kPa; and 37.6 (26.5-45.4 [11.0-56.6]) kPa, respectively; p < 0.001. Median (IQR [range]) times to desaturate to 92% after the onset of apnoea in the 0 l.min-1, 70 l.min-1 and 120 l.min-1 groups, were 412 (347-509 [190-796]) s; 533 (467-641 [192-958]) s; and 531 (462-681 [326-1007]) s, respectively; p < 0.001. In conclusion, the rate of carbon dioxide accumulation in arterial blood did not differ significantly between apnoeic patients who received high-flow nasal oxygen and those who did not.

Abstract
'Apnoeic oxygenation' describes the diffusion of oxygen across the alveolar-capillary interface in the absence of tidal respiration. Apnoeic oxygenation requires a patent airway, the diffusion of oxygen to the alveoli, and cardiopulmonary circulation. Apnoeic oxygenation has varied applications in adult medicine including facilitating tubeless anaesthesia or improving oxygenation when a difficult airway is known or anticipated. In the paediatric population, apnoeic oxygenation prolongs the time to oxygen desaturation, facilitating intubation. This application has gained attention in neonatal intensive care where intubation remains a challenging procedure. Difficulties are related to the infant's size and decreased respiratory reserve. In addition, policy changes have led to limited opportunities for operators to gain proficiency. Until recently, evidence of benefit of apnoeic oxygenation in the neonatal population came from a small number of infants recruited to paediatric studies. Evidence specific to neonates is emerging and suggests apnoeic oxygenation may increase intubation success and limit physiological instability during the procedure. The best way to deliver oxygen to facilitate apnoeic oxygenation remains an important question.

The effectiveness of apneic oxygenation during tracheal intubation in various clinical settings: a narrative review. Can J Anaesth 2017; 64:416-427. [PMID: 28050802 DOI: 10.1007/s12630-016-0802-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2016] [Revised: 10/13/2016] [Accepted: 12/13/2016] [Indexed: 10/20/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE During the process of tracheal intubation, patients are apneic or hypoventilating and are at risk of becoming hypoxemic. This risk is especially high in patients with acute or chronic respiratory failure and accompanying compromised respiratory reserve. To address this concern, apneic oxygenation can be administered during tracheal intubation to aid in maintaining arterial oxygen saturation. The objective of this narrative review is to examine the utilization of apneic oxygenation within the operating room, intensive care unit (ICU), emergency department, and pre-hospital settings and to determine its efficacy compared with controls. SOURCE For this narrative review, we obtained pertinent articles using MEDLINE® (1946 to April 2016), EMBASE™ (1974 to April 2016), Google Scholar, and manual searches. Apneic oxygenation was administered using various techniques, including the use of nasal prongs, nasopharyngeal or endotracheal catheters, or laryngoscopes. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS First, all 12 operating room studies showed that apneic oxygenation significantly prolonged the duration to, and incidence of, desaturation. Second, two of the five ICU studies showed a significantly smaller decline in oxygen saturation with apneic oxygenation, with three studies showing no statistically significant difference vs controls. Lastly, two emergency department or pre-hospital studies showed that the use of apneic oxygenation resulted in a significantly lower incidence of desaturation and smaller declines in oxygen saturation. CONCLUSION Sixteen of the 19 studies showed that apneic oxygenation prolongs safe apneic time and reduces the incidence of arterial oxygen desaturation. Overall, studies in this review show that apneic oxygenation prolongs the time to oxygen desaturation during tracheal intubation. Nevertheless, the majority of the studies were small in size, and they neither measured nor were adequately powered to detect adverse respiratory events or other serious rare complications. Prolonged apneic oxygenation (with its consequent hypercarbia) can have risks and should be avoided in patients with conditions such as increased intracranial pressure, metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, and pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
Patients requiring emergency airway management are at great risk of hypoxemic hypoxia because of primary lung pathology, high metabolic demands, anemia, insufficient respiratory drive, and inability to protect their airway against aspiration. Tracheal intubation is often required before the complete information needed to assess the risk of periprocedural hypoxia is acquired, such as an arterial blood gas level, hemoglobin value, or even a chest radiograph. This article reviews preoxygenation and peri-intubation oxygenation techniques to minimize the risk of critical hypoxia and introduces a risk-stratification approach to emergency tracheal intubation. Techniques reviewed include positioning, preoxygenation and denitrogenation, positive end expiratory pressure devices, and passive apneic oxygenation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES It is generally assumed that ventilation is necessary for oxygenation. This study tested if paralyzed animals without respirations can maintain arterial oxygenation when administered high-flow oxygen delivered by a catheter in the trachea. METHODS DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING University research laboratory. PARTICIPANTS 3 anesthetized/paralyzed swine weighing 29.5 +/- 4.2 kg. INTERVENTIONS/OBSERVATIONS: Pigs were intubated, anesthetized with intravenous tiletamine and a pentobarbital drip. A femoral arterial line was placed to record arterial blood gases and vital signs every 5 minutes. Respiratory paralysis was obtained with vecuronium 150 microg/kg and repeated at any sign of movement. A catheter was placed in the trachea to deliver oxygen at 15 L/min. Outflow gas from the endotracheal tube was analyzed for O2 and CO2. O2 was discontinued at 75 minutes. The institutional animal care and use committee approved the protocol. RESULTS All pigs survived to 75 minutes. PaO2 was more than 100 mm Hg throughout the study period. Mean PaCO2 was 37.4 +/- 2.8 mm Hg at baseline, 146 +/- 59 at 30 minutes, then rose above 200 mm Hg in all pigs by 45 minutes. Mean arterial pH fell from 7.47 +/- 0.04 at onset to 6.75 +/- 0.06 at 75 minutes. When oxygen was terminated at 75 minutes, PaO2 fell to 16.5 +/- 7.6 mm Hg within 5 minutes, and all pigs were sacrificed within 10 minutes. For outflow gas, O2 was more than 98% and expired CO2 less than 1% throughout the study period. CONCLUSIONS Paralyzed, unventilated pigs receiving high-flow oxygen via a tracheal catheter remained alive after 75 minutes, although a profound respiratory acidosis developed.

Abstract
Biphasic-flow induced ventilation (BiFIV) is a variable time-cycled tracheal gas insufflation mode, using a specific multiluminal endotracheal tube. Some recent studies have reported efficiency of this new ventilatory mode in experimental in vitro and in vivo settings. We hypothesized that this ventilatory mode could be able to deliver simultaneous efficient ventilation for several animals, using a single ventilator prototype. The study was performed in three groups of three domestic pigs with a normal lung compliance. Each pig was initially anaesthetized, intubated with the specific endotracheal tube, and ventilated with a conventional ventilatory device. The animals were then simultaneously ventilated under BiFIV, using a single ventilator prototype, for each group of three animals. Physiological parameters and arterial blood gases were recorded at each study phase. All animals but one survived the experiment. We did not observe any significant differences in arterial gas exchange, under both ventilatory modes. Oxygenation was as efficient for each three animals ventilated under BiFIV, using a single ventilator device, as under conventional ventilation, using three separate ventilators (PaO2 = 112+/-17 mmHg under conventional ventilation versus 115+/-16 mmHg under BiFIV). In conclusion, variable time-cycled tracheal gas insufflation may allow an efficient multiple ventilation on several animals, using a single multiple output ventilatory device, in a normal lung animal model. If validated on subsequent pathological models, it could thus be interesting in laboratory and/or mass casualty situations.

Abstract
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has been performed during ganglionectomy and bullectomy and usually requires a collapsed or immobilized lung. Transtracheal insufflation of oxygen (TRIO) maintains an immobilized lung, adequate oxygenation, and partial CO2 elimination but has never been used for VATS. We have simplified the TRIO design with a catheter inserted through the lumen of the orotracheal tube in what we call "transorotracheal tube TRIO" (TRIO-TOTT) and investigated its clinical use on simple VATS. Eleven patients undergoing bullectomy for primary simple pneumothorax (PSP) were studied. During the performance of VATS, a 12-gauge suction catheter was inserted as our modification and connected to the gas outlet of an anesthetic machine. The flow rate of oxygen was maintained at 10 L/min. Blood gas was collected prior to TRIO-TOTT, during TRIO-TOTT at 5, 10, 15, and 20 min, and 5 min after TRIO-TOTT. The blood gas data showed excellent oxygenation while the PaCO2 increased at a rate of 1.2 mm Hg/min compared to 3-4 mm Hg/min for apnea oxygenation. After 20 min, the mean +/- SEM PaO2 and PaCO2 were 428 +/- 27 and 65.0 +/- 2.6 mm Hg, respectively. We conclude that TRIO-TOTT is a simple, safe, and effective ventilation method for simple VATS.

Abstract
It has previously been reported that continuous insufflation of either supracarinal or subcarinal oxygen in addition to intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) in patients under general anesthesia, and in critically ill patients in the intensive care unit, causes increased proximal airway pressure, decreased systemic blood pressure, and decreased cardiac output. The investigators hypothesized that these deleterious hemodynamic effects were due to intrapulmonary air trapping, resulting in an increased distal intrapulmonary pressure and volume. The purpose of this study was to test this hypothesis in an appropriate mechanical lung model. The study determined end-inspiratory and end-expiratory lung pressures and volumes during eight experimental sequences: (1) IPPV alone; (2) insufflation of oxygen alone at 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 L/min (O2-2.5, 5.0, 10.0); (3, 4, and 5) IPPV plus insufflation of oxygen (IPPV + O2-0.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0) through a supracarinal catheter (sequence 3), subcarinal catheters (sequence 4), and through a CO2 sampling port of an endotrachael tube (sequence 5); (6 and 7) IPPV + O2-5.0 with increased expiratory time caused by an increased inspiratory flow rate (sequence 6) and a decreased respiratory rate (sequence 7); (8) IPPV + O2-5.0 with increased airway diameter. Experimental sequences 1 and 2 resulted in no increases or minimal ones in lung pressure and volume, respectively. With each insufflation catheter system (sequences 3, 4, and 5), each incremental increase in insufflation flow rate resulted in significant increases in lung pressure and volume. Increasing expiratory times (sequences 6 and 7 compared with 3, 4, and 5) decreased lung pressure and volume. Increasing the airway diameter (sequence 8) had only slight effect on lung pressure and volume.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Recent studies in animals have demonstrated that continuous insufflation of oxygen near the tracheal carina results in ventilation and carbon dioxide removal that is proportional to the flow rate. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the addition of supracarinal and subcarinal low-flow oxygen insufflation to conventional intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) of critically ill and anesthetized patients results in increased ventilation and improved oxygenation. In eight studies a supracarinal catheter (3.7 mm OD) was placed 1 to 2 cm above the carina, and in another eight studies two subcarinal catheters (1.7 mm OD) were placed 2 cm below the tracheal carina under direct vision with a fiberoptic bronchoscope. Both supracarinal and subcarinal catheters were passed within the lumen of an 8 mm ID endotracheal tube. In both groups, conventional IPPV consisted of a tidal volume of 10-12 mL/kg, respiratory rate of 8 to 10 breaths/min, 0 cm H2O positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and F1O2 of 1.0. In both groups, continuous oxygen insufflation flow rates were 0.05, 0.10, and 0.20 L/ kg/min. It was found that compared with control conditions (no insufflation), oxygen insufflation at all flow rates in both supracarinal and subcarinal insufflation groups did not cause any significant change in either oxygenation or ventilation. There was a significant increase in proximal peak airway pressure with each incremental increase in continuous oxygen flow rate. Conversely, there was a significant decrease in mean arterial pressure and cardiac output with each incremental increase in continuous oxygen flow rate. It is concluded that use of continuous low-flow insufflation of oxygen with simple administration systems (catheters within the lumen of endotracheal tube) in addition to conventional IPPV is contraindicated at the present time. Further studies using different insufflation systems may prove to be worthwhile.

Abstract
This study compares gas exchange and hemodynamic parameters during bronchial insufflation with two different internal diameter (ID) catheters (2.5 and 1.4 mm) at a constant mean gas exit velocity. Anesthetized, paralyzed dogs were instrumented to monitor arterial, central venous, and airway pressures, blood gases, temperature, ECG, and ventilated using continuous flow apneic ventilation (CFAV) via 2.5-mm or 1.4-mm ID bronchial insufflation catheters positioned 1.25 bronchial diameter units (BDU) beyond the carina. Initially, flow was adjusted to provide adequate oxygenation and ventilation through the 2.5-mm ID catheters. After a 30-min stabilization, physiological parameters were recorded and the mean gas exit velocity was calculated. The 2.5-mm ID insufflation catheters were then replaced by 1.4-mm ID catheters and the bronchial insufflation flow adjusted so as to produce the same mean gas exit velocity as for the 2.5-mm ID catheters. After a 30-min stabilization period, physiological parameters were again recorded. No significant differences were noted in arterial, central venous, or airway pressures, temperature, heart rate, pH, PaCO2, and PaO2 between the 2.5-mm and 1.4-mm ID bronchial insufflation catheters. However, significantly less bronchial insufflation flow (69.7%) was required to maintain oxygenation and ventilation for the 1.4-mm ID bronchial insufflation catheters.

Abstract
Airway closure, mean airway pressure, gas exchange and different modes of artificial ventilation were investigated in anesthetized and paralyzed dogs with clinically healthy lungs. The animals were ventilated with either intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV), continuous positive pressure ventilation (GPPV, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) = 0.49 kPa) or high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV, open system) of 2 and 30 Hz with an inspiratory to expiratory (I/E) - ratio of 30/70 and 60/40. Closing volume (CV) was determined by a modified technique, submitting the lung to constant subatmospheric pressure after an inspiratory vital capacity of oxygen. Two different tests for CV were used: the foreign gas bolus (FGB) with helium as nonresident gas and the single breath nitrogen dilution technique (SBO2). During conventional mechanical ventilation, CV decreased significantly (P less than 0.05) after establishing a PEEP of 0.49 kPa. During HFJV, CV increased significantly (P less than 0.01). This effect was predominantly dependent on I/E duration time ratio and to a lesser extent on ventilatory frequency. There were significant differences between CV obtained by the FGB-method (CV(helium] and CV derived from the SBO2-test (CV(SBO2], although both tests revealed the same proportional changes of CV during the different modes of ventilation. The elevated CV was associated with a decreasing Pao2 and increasing Aa-Do2 and Paco2, indicating substantial hypoventilation and mismatching of ventilation and perfusion. Mean airway pressure increased with both CPPV and HFJV, revealing a dissociation between airway pressure and regional FRC distribution during HFJV. It is concluded that certain modes of high-frequency ventilation lead to impaired distribution of inspired gas to dependent lung regions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Continuous endobronchial insufflation of air in paralyzed animals (continuous flow apneic ventilation - CFAV) has been shown to maintain adequate oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal. CFAV in patients using oxygen resulted in adequate oxygenation but a mean rise in PaCO2 of 0.6 mmHg/min (0.08 kPa/min). This experiment compared carbon dioxide removal in dogs with air and oxygen. Ten dogs were anesthetized and paralyzed, and CFAV was used for 1 h with either air or oxygen in a randomized fashion. Adequate oxygenation was obtained with air and oxygen. Normal PaCO2 levels were obtained with air; however, in the animals where oxygen was used, PaCO2 levels rose to a mean of 6.45 +/- s.e. mean 0.4 kPa (48.5 +/- s.e.mean 3.2 mmHg).
