BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The weaning of mechanical ventilation is the process of transition from mechanical ventilation to spontaneous. The actual practice weaning reveals that the empirism is insufficient and inadequate. On the other side, the standardization of the weaning provides best conductions in the process. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the application of a weaning protocol in an intensive care unit. METHODS: Method: It was included in this study all the patients in program of liberation from the mechanical ventilation, in which the evolution of the weaning was followed by the utilization of a pre-establish protocol and publicated by the service. RESULTS: It was studied 127 patients. In 91% (115) of the patients we had success in the weaning and unsuccess in 9% (12). The non-invasive ventilation after the extubation was utilized in 19% (24) of them. None obit was observed. Comparing the group of the patients that had success with the failed group, there were no statistically significant variations observed in sex (p = 0.96), APACHE II (19.5 versus 18.6 p = 0.75), risk of obit (29% versus 22% p = 0.54), MIP (38 versus 32 cmH2O p = 0.17), duration of mechanical ventilation (6 versus 7 days p = 0.70), PaO2/FiO2 relation (324 versus 312 p = 0.83), weaning modality (PSV or T Tube p = 0.29). There were statistically significant variations observed in rapid shallow respiratory index (59 versus 77 p = 0.02) and duration of the weaning (1 versus 30 hours p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The weaning of the ventilation realized following the standardization brought improvement in its conduction, maintaining the high success index with low mortality.

OBJECTIVES: This study attempted to identify which is the more effective suction system. The objective was to compare open versus closed suction systems according to a systematic review. METHODS: A search of scientific literature was conducted in MedLine, LILACS and Cochrane between 1997 and August 2007 using the key words: endotracheal suction and closed suction. Included were articles that compared the open and closed suction systems used in adult humans and that were randomized and controlled trials. RESULTS: From the 78 articles identified, only 15 were accepted and described in this review. Nine compared incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia, six compared oxygen saturation, four compared blood pressure and heart rate, three compared pulmonary volumes, two compared secretion removal and four compared costs. No difference was found in these variables compared: incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia, mortality, intensive care unit length of stay, duration of mechanical ventilation, PaCO2, PaO2, mean blood pressure, heart rate and secretion removal. However, there were always SpO2 and pulmonary volume decreases when using the open suction system; and costs were lower in most of the studies that used the closed suction system. CONCLUSIONS: Closed suction system seems to increase the risk of colonization, but has the advantage of not reducing the pulmonary volumes and not entailing a drop of saturation, especially in patients with severe respiratory failure and in the use of higher levels of positive end expiratory pressure.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) has been routinely used to assist the weaning of the mechanical ventilation. One of the applications most common is in patients who had acute respiratory failure after extubation, even the scientific evidences for this indication still controversy. The aims of this study were to evaluate the index of patients that evolve for respiratory failure after extubation and evaluated the effectiveness of NPPV to avoid the need for reintubation and to promote increase in success index of weaning. METHODS: We conducted a transversal and prospective study. It was applied to NPPV in the patients who presented respiratory failure after extubation, independent of its etiology. NPPV was applied in to pressure support ventilation, with Vte for 6 to 8 mL/kg, PEEP and FiO2 adjusted to reach SaO2 > 95%. The NPPV was accomplished of a continuous mould even interrupt the signs of respiratory failure presented initially. The success of weaning and the NPPV was defined when the clinical events were reverted by a period greater than 48 hours in spontaneous breathing, avoid thus reintubation. RESULTS: We included 103 patients. Noted that 32% (33) evolved with signals of respiratory failure after extubation and were submitted to NPPV. The time of NPPV was on mean 8 ± 5 hours, PSV of 12 ± 2 cmH2O, PEEP of 7 ± 2 cmH2O, FiO2 of 40% ± 20%, Vte of 462 ± 100 mL, RR of 26 ± 5 rpm. Among patients who accomplished NPPV (33), 76% (25) attended with success and them afterwards let the ICU. Of the patients assigned to NPPV, 24% (8) did not tolerate the procedure and were reintubated. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that NPPV is safe and effective in averting the need for reintubation in patients with respiratory failure after extubation.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: In acute respiratory discomfort syndrome (ARDS) patients, prone position improves oxygenation in more than 70% of the cases. It is well known that prone position promotes a lot of pulmonary changes, including pulmonary mechanics, so we hypothesized that there is the necessity to optimize the ventilatory parameters after the patient is placed in prone position, especially the positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) values. The objective of this study valued the influence of the prone position at the calculation of the ideal PEEP, given a title by the best pulmonary complaisance and he compared the pulmonary alterations of mechanics, of oxygenation and of ventilation in the positions supine and prone. METHODS: Prospective study, taken place in the Irmandade Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo Intensive Care Service. Three fases have been compared. Fase 1: in supine position, after the best PEEP calculation. Fase 2: two hours after the patient was placed in prone position and the best PEEP was calculated. The patient was kept for 6 hours in this position. Fase 3: after this time, patient was placed in supine again and after two hours, a new best PEEP calculation and arterial gas analysis was done. And then fase1 versus fase 2, fase 2 versus fase 3, fase 3 versus fase1 were compared. RESULTS: There were no differences in the PEEP values found in all study fases: fase 1 = 14 ± 4.43; fase 2 = 14.73 ± 4.77 and fase 3 = 13.65 ± 4.92. CONCLUSIONS: There were no differences in best PEEP values between prone and supine position. Therefore, there is no need to recalculate the PEEP value after each position change.
