Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the application value of electrical impedance tomography(EIT)imaging combining bedside bronchoscopy sputum suction by observing the changes of pulmonary ventilation, tidal volume and dynamic pulmonary compliance after bedside bronchoscopy sputum suction in elderly stroke-associated pneumonia(SAP).Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted.Patients with SAP admitted to the respiratory intensive care unit of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were enrolled as research objects.They were divided into the control group versus observation group with the only difference in receiving bedside bronchoscope sputum suction replacing control's receiving conventional sputum suction.Impedance imaging region of interest 4(ROI4)values collected by using EIT at admission and 1, 3, 5 days after fiberoptic bronchoscope sputum suction were compared between the two groups.Meanwhile, the tidal volume, dynamic lung compliance, the duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization time in intensive care unit were recorded in the two groups.Results:A total of 78 patients meeting an inclusion and exclusion criterion were enrolled, with 37 cases in the control group and 41 cases in the observation group.Compared with control group, the bronchoscope sputum suction group showed the significantly increased regional gas distribution values(2.24±0.77% vs.0.49±0.65%, 7.05±0.77% vs.2.49±0.87%, 12.34±1.47% vs.5.57±0.50%, t=10.85, 24.56 and 26.54, respectively, all P<0.001)at 1, 3, 5 days after fiberoptic bronchoscope sputum suction.The tidal volume and dynamic lung compliance were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group at 1, 3, 5 days after fiberoptic bronchoscope sputum suction.The duration of mechanical ventilation and hospitalization time in the intensive care unit were shorter in the observation group than in the control group(12.22±0.88 d vs.14.65±0.92 d, 18.41±1.12 d vs.21.14±1.06 d, t=11.91 and 11.01, both P< 0.001). Conclusions:For patients with SAP, an intermittent bedside fiberoptic bronchoscope sputum suction can effectively improve the pulmonary ventilation in the dorsal area, optimize pulmonary respiratory dynamics, facilitate the early withdrawal of the mechanic ventilation, and shorten the hospitalization time in the intensive care unit.
