The DELUX study: development of lung volumes during extubation of preterm infants
OBJECTIVE: To measure changes in end-expiratory lung impedance (EELI) as a marker of functional residual capacity (FRC) during the entire extubation procedure of very preterm infants. METHODS: Prospective observational study in preterm infants born at 26–32 weeks gestation being extubated to non-inv...

description | OBJECTIVE: To measure changes in end-expiratory lung impedance (EELI) as a marker of functional residual capacity (FRC) during the entire extubation procedure of very preterm infants. METHODS: Prospective observational study in preterm infants born at 26–32 weeks gestation being extubated to non-invasive respiratory support. Changes in EELI and cardiorespiratory parameters (heart rate, oxygen saturation) were recorded at pre-specified events during the extubation procedure compared to baseline (before first handling of the infant). RESULTS: Overall, 2912 breaths were analysed in 12 infants. There was a global change in EELI during the extubation procedure (p = 0.029). EELI was lowest at the time of extubation [median (IQR) difference to baseline: −0.30 AU/kg (−0.46; −0.14), corresponding to an FRC loss of 10.2 ml/kg (4.8; 15.9), p(adj) = 0.004]. The biggest EELI loss occurred during adhesive tape removal [median change (IQR): −0.18 AU/kg (−0.22; −0.07), p(adj) = 0.004]. EELI changes were highly correlated with changes in the SpO(2)/FiO(2) ratio (r = 0.48, p < 0.001). Forty per cent of FRC was re-recruited at the tenth breath after the initiation of non-invasive ventilation (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The extubation procedure is associated with significant changes in FRC. This study provides novel information for determining the optimal way of extubating a preterm infant. IMPACT: This study is the first to examine the development of lung volumes during the entire extubation procedure including the impact of associated events. The extubation procedure significantly affects functional residual capacity with a loss of approximately 10 ml/kg at the time of extubation. Removal of adhesive tape is the major contributing factor to FRC loss during the extubation procedure. Functional residual capacity is regained within the first breaths after initiation of non-invasive ventilation and is further increased after turning the infant into the prone position. |
