OBJECTIVE To analyze the application of functional residual capacity (FRC)-guided optimal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in pulmonary retention in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and to explore the correlation between FRC and trans-pulmonary pressure and their predictive value for prognosis. METHODS Seventy-eight ARDS patients on mechanical ventilation admitted to department of critical care medicine of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from March 2018 to May 2019 were enrolled. According to random number table method, the patients were divided into experimental group and the control group. PEEP of all patients were gradually increased in recruitment after fully sedation and analgesia. AZ 628 Raf inhibitor The best PEEP was set by monitoring FRC in the experimental group, and by monitoring maximum oxygen in the control group set. The differences before and after 30 minutes and 2 hours recruitment manoeuvres in dynamic compliance (Cdyn), oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2), an86±5.07], MP was lower than the control group (J/min 16.32±1.11 vs. 17.05±1.22, 15.22±1.25 vs. 17.03±1.50), the difference was statistically significant (all P less then 0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that both FRC and trans-pulmonary pressure had predictive value for the 28-day mortality of ARDS patients, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.868, and 0.828 respectively (both P less then 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Measuring FRC in patients with ARDS during recruitment maneuvres can guide optimal PEEP. FRC was significantly correlated with trans-pulmonary pressure, and both of them had predictive value for 28-day mortality in ARDS patients.OBJECTIVE To explore the switch time of noninvasive-invasive mechanical ventilation sequential treatment for acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), and effectively reduce the rate of tracheal intubation. METHODS A retrospective study was performed on patients with AECOPD, who underwent mechanical ventilation in emergency resuscitation room and admitted to department of respiration of Kaifeng Central Hospital Emergency Center from July 2014 to March 2019. The patients who used noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) were included in NIV group (118 cases), and those who used invasive positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) were included in IPPV group (52 cases). The usage of breathing machine time, hospital days and hospital mortality were compared between the two groups. Clinical indicators such as age, gender, body temperature, respiratory rate, body mass index (BMI), mean arterial pressure (MAP), oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2), respiratory index (RI), pH value, D-dimer, hemoglobinh RI, pH value, WBC abnormalities and sputum excretion drainage, the risk of choosing NIV is significantly increased. We need to pay more attention to the change of the condition and switch to IPPV in time to avoid exacerbation of the condition.OBJECTIVE To systematically review the therapeutic effect of continuous high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation in patients with non-acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (non-ALI/ARDS) under general anesthesia mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS PubMed, JBI Evidence-based Nursing Center Library, Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline, Wanfang Date, CNKI and VIP Database were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) and clinical controlled trials (CCT) using different levels of PEEP for the treatment of patients (uncombined ALI/ARDS) in ICU. The search period was from January 1st, 1990 to November 30th, 2018. Compared with the control group, the experimental group was treated with relatively high levels of PEEP ventilation. Outcome indicators were hospital mortality or 28-day mortality, partial oxygen pressure, and incidence of ARDS, atelectasis, and lung infections, etc. The RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis. RESULTS Twelve articleselatively high levels of PEEP (10-16 cmH2O, 1 cmH2O = 0.098 kPa) instead of low levels of PEEP (≤ 8 cmH2O) can significantly increase the partial oxygen pressure and significantly reduce the incidences of ARDS and lung infection.OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of polymyxin B in the treatment of sepsis caused by extensively-drug resistant (XDR) Gram-negative bacteria. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 39 septic patients with XDR Gram-negative bacterial infection treated with polymyxin B in the department of critical care medicine of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from June 2018 to September 2019 were enrolled. The clinical characteristics, bacterial culture, the sensitivity antibacterial drugs, types and courses of antibiotics, biochemical indexes, and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) before and after polymyxin B treatment were collected, to assess microbial clearance and efficacy, drug related adverse effects, and 28-day mortality in septic patients with XDR. RESULTS Of the 39 septic patients with XDR, 32 (82.1%) were male, with the mean age of (53.6±12.6) years old. The main infection site was pulmonary infection (51.2%), and the treatment courses of polymyxin B % (8/24), all P less then 0.05], however, there were no significant differences in the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and mechanical ventilation time among different daily dose groups. The APACHE II score after polymyxin B administration was significantly lower than before administration (all patients 16.20±9.24 vs. 24.40±4.73, effective patients 11.30±4.08 vs. 23.00±4.56, both P less then 0.05). Four patients with renal injury had an increase in serum creatinine during the administration of polymyxin B, and recovered after discontinuation of the drug without other adverse reactions. CONCLUSIONS Polymyxin B can be used as an effective treatment option for patients with severe infection of XDR Gram-negative bacteria.OBJECTIVE To clarify the distribution and composition of drug-resistant genes of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) in Qingdao City and to provide rationale for clinical application of antibacterial treatment by screening for carbapenemase phenotype and detecting resistance genes of CRKP. METHODS Fifty-four clinically isolated non-repeating CRKP from five Third Grade and Class A Hospitals in Qingdao City from October 2016 to September 2019 were collected. Kirby-Bauer method was used for drug sensitivity tests of commonly used antibacterial drugs; modified Hodge test was used for carbapenemase phenotypic screening; and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify blaKPC-2, blaNDM-1, blaOXA-48, blaIMP, blaVIM target genes. The amplified products were subjected to agarose gel electrophoresis. RESULTS Drug susceptibility tests showed that CRKP had the lowest resistance rate to amikacin (35.2%), followed by compound sinomine (53.7%), gentamicin (55.6%), levofloxacin (75.9%), and imipenem-cilastatin (88.
