13 Case study (1) A 68-year-old man Hypertension COPD (GOLD class IV) Acute exacerbation Admitted to another hospital Prolonged weaning failure (2 M) transfer
14 Case study (2) Physical examination: HR 75/min, BP 135/75, no peripheral edema, normal heart sounds without murmurs, no rales or wheezing, normal abdomen Quiet breathing on PSV 14/6 (RR 24, Tv 400 ml) Unable to complete first SBT > 2 hrs
15 Systematic approach Balance between WOB and capacity of the respiratory muscles? (A + D) Major problem with gas exchange? (A) Cardiac function? (C) Other contributing factors? (B + E)
16 Work of breathing is determined by.. Respiratory system elastance ( P/ V) Airway resistance Intrinsic PEEP Active expiration
17 Impression of RS elastance and resistance Switch to passive volume controlled ventilation If a patient is on PSV 14/6 with a mean Tv of 400 ml and a RR of 24/min start with a Tv of and a RR of 26. Wait a few minutes and once the patient is passive decrease Tv to decrease RR if possible
18 RS elastance & resistance Inspiratory hold Expiratory hold Ppeak P1 P2 Ventilator pressure PEEPi Ventilator flow
19 Calculations RS elastance = (P2 - Total PEEP) / Tv RS resistance = (Ppeak - P1) / V RS elastance patient = 24.4 cmh2o/l RS resistance patient = 11.5 cmh2o/l/s (N 10 cmh20/l) (N 2.5 cmh20/l/s) PEEPi = 6 cmh2o?
20 List of problems 2 to 3 fold increase in RS elastance 4 fold increase in RS resistance Presence of PEEPi working as an inspiratory threshold
21 The next small step.. Is the increase in RS elastance caused by the lung or the chest wall? Is there a problem in the major airways?

28 List of problems 2 to 3 fold increase in RS elastance mainly pulmonary 4 fold increase in RS resistance Presence of PEEP i working as an inspiratory threshold
29 The next small step.. Is the increase in RS elastance caused by the lung or the chest wall? Is there a problem in the major airways?
30 Bronchoscopy Preferably during spontaneous breathing Look for ET tube occlusion/narrowing, granulation tissue, position of tracheostomy tube in relation to tracheal wall, unexpected tracheal stenosis and tracheomalacia
31 In our patient.. Tracheostomy tube ID 8 Normal position No granulation tissue No tracheomalacia
32 List of problems 2 to 3 fold increase in RS elastance mainly pulmonary 4 fold increase in RS resistance without major airway obstruction Presence of PEEP i working as an inspiratory threshold

37 The final step - measurements in assisted breathing PS 8 - PEEP 4
38 Measurement of PEEPi Decrease in pleural pressure from the onset of inspiration until the start of inspiratory flow minus the expiratory pressure induced by active expiration
