Clinical Evaluation of Induced Rescue Intubation by Ketamine and Midazolam in Patients with Respiratory Failure

Objective To evaluate the rescue intubation induced by ketamine and midazolam in patients with acute respiratory failure.Methods 81 patients with acute respiratory failure admitted between June 2010 and June 2012 were recruited in the study. They were randomly divided to a MF group to receive 0. 05 mg/kg of midazolam + 1 to 2 μg/kg of fentanyl ( n =41) , and aMK group to received 0. 05 mg/kg of midazolam + 0. 5 to 1 mg/kg of ketamine ( n =40) for rescue intubation. The APACHEⅡ score on initial24 hours after admission in ICU, length of ICU stay, and 28-day mortality were recorded. The differences in arterial blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate, and blood oxygen saturation before intubation and 10 minutes after intubation were compared. Incidences of hypotension and other adverse events and difficult intubation were also recorded.Results The midazolamdose in the MK group was significantly less than that in the MF group ( P lt; 0. 01) . The blood pressure in both groups decreased. The systolic blood pressure dropped most significantly in the MF group ( P lt;0. 05) . The incidence of hypotension was 41. 5% in the MF group, significantly higher than that in the MK group ( 20. 0% , P lt;0. 05) . The incidence of hypotension had no correlation with midazolamdosage ( P gt;0. 05) . There was no significant difference in adverse events except for the arrhythmia between two groups. The length of ICU stay and 28-day mortality were similar in both groups ( P gt; 0. 05) . The incidence of difficult tracheal intubation was nearly 50% in both groups.Conclusions In patients with respiratory failure, rescue intubation induced by ketamine can reduce the dose of midazolam and reduce the incidence of hypotension without more complications. The optimal dose of ketamine in induced tracheal intubation requires further study.

The impacts of the different ventilation methods on patients with transbronchial cryobiopsy: a prospective randomized controlled trial

ObjectiveTo evaluate the difference between the tracheal intubation connected to conventional ventilation (TI-CV) and rigid bronchoscopy connected to high frequency ventilation (RB-HFV) under general anesthesia on patients with transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB).MethodA prospective, randomized, controlled trial was conducted in interstitial lung disease patients with TBCB from August 2018 to February 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. According to the different methods of intubation, the patients were divided to a TI-CV group and a RB-HFV group randomly. The operating duration, extubation duration, total anesthesia time, heart rate, blood pressure and arterial blood gas analysis were collected and analyzed.ResultsSixty-five patients were enrolled. There were 33 patients with an average age of (48.0±15.0) years in TI-CV group and 32 patients with an average age of (48.8±10.8) years in RB-HFV group. The basic line of body mass index, pulmonary function (FEV1, FVC and DLCO), arterial blood gas (pH, PaO2 and PaCO2) and heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) had no significant differences between two groups. At the first 5 minutes of operation, the pH was (7.34±0.06) and (7.26±0.06), and the PaCO2 was (48.82±9.53) and (62.76±9.80) mm Hg in TI-CV group and RB-HFV group respectively, with significant differences (P=0.000). At the end of operation, the pH was (7.33±0.06) and (7.21±0.08), the PaCO2 was (48.91±10.49) and (70.93±14.83) mm Hg, the HR were (79.6±21.1) and (93.8±18.7) bpm, the MAP were (72.15±13.03) and (82.63±15.65) mm Hg in TI-CV group and RB-HFV group respectively, with significant differences (P<0.05). There were no differences in the operating duration and extubation duration between two groups. The total anesthesia time was (47.4±8.8) and (53.3±11.6) min with significant difference (P=0.017). Five minutes after the extubation, there were no significant difference in the pH, PaO2, PaCO2, HR and MAP between two groups. No serious complications occurred in either group.ConclusionsCompared with rigid bronchoscopy, TI-CV under general anesthesia is more conducive to maintain effective ventilation, and maintain the HR and MAP stable during the TBCB procedure. TBCB procedure should be performed by TI-CV under general anesthesia in patients with poor cardiopulmonary function.

Investigation and analysis of influence factors of thirst in ICU patients with oral tracheal intubation and ventilator assisted ventilation

Objective To investigate the thirst status of patients in intensive care unit (ICU) who underwent oral tracheal intubation and ventilator assisted ventilation, and explore its influence factors. Methods A total of 172 patients with oral tracheal intubation admitted in ICU from June 2020 to September 2021 were investigated, and a numerical rating scale was employed for rating their thirst feelings. The patients were divided into a thirst group and a non-thirst group based on thirst status. The thirst status and influence factors of thirst distress were analyzed. Results The incidence of thirst in the ICU patients with oral tracheal intubation and ventilator assisted ventilation was 88.4%, and the thirst score in the thirst group was 7.70±1.17. Single factor analysis showed statistically significant difference between the two groups in sex, medical payment, smoking, drinking, duration of mechanical ventilation, humidification effect, sputum viscosity, gastrointestinal decompression, fasting, continuous renal replacement therapy, diuretics, 24-hour urine volume and liquid balance, heart function grading, sedatives, agitation, sweating, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ, endotracheal intubation depth, body mass index, PCO2, PO2, HCO3–, tidal volume, and sodium ion (all P<0.05). Multivariable regression analysis demonstrated that diuretics, sputum viscosity, sodium ion, alcohol consumption, smoking, intubation depth, and cardiac function were independent influence factors for the occurrence of thirst in the ICU patients who received tracheal intubation (P<0.01). Conclusions The incidence of thirst was high in ICU patients with airway intubation and ventilator assisted ventilation. Diuretics, sputum viscosity, sodium ion, alcohol consumption, smoking, 24-hour urine volume, and cardiac function grading were independent influence factors for the occurrence of thirst in ICU patients with tracheal intubation. It is necessary to implement targeted intervention to prevent and alleviate the thirst degree of patients, reduce the occurrence of related complications, and improve patient comfort.

Analysis of Tracheal Intubation in Intensive Care Unit

Objective To evaluate the clinical features and complications of bedside tracheal intubation in intensive care unit ( ICU) , and explore the suitable strategy of intubation. Methods In this retrospective study,42 patients who underwent bedside tracheal intubation in ICU during September 2008 and March 2009 were divided into a schedule group ( n =24) and an emergency group ( n =18) . The time to successful intubation, number of intubation attempts, and complications were recorded. The schedule group was defined as those with indications for intubation and fully prepared, while the emergency group was defined as those undergoing emergency intubations without full preparation due to rapid progression of disease and accidental extubation. Results The success rate for all patients was only 57. 1% on the first attempt ofintubation. The main complications during and after induction were hypotension ( 45. 2% ) and hypoxemia ( 50. 0% ) . Compared with the emergency group, the schedule group had fewer attempts to successful intubation ( 1. 71 ±1. 12 vs. 2. 67 ±1. 75) , higher success rate on the second attempt ( 87. 5% vs.61. 1%) , and lower ypoxemia incidence ( 29. 1% vs. 77. 8%, P lt; 0. 05) . Conclusions The tracheal intubation in ICU is a difficult and high risk procedure with obvious complications. Early recognition ofpatients with indications and well preparation are critical to successful bedside intubation.

Clinical Research on Remifentanil-propofol for Tracheal Intubation in Patients who are Awake

ObjectiveTo study the feasibility of using propofol and remifentanil for tracheal intubation in patients who are awake, and investigate the influence of tracheal intubation on such vital signs as blood pressure and heart rates. MethodsEighty ASA I-Ⅱ patients who underwent general anesthesia in our hospital between December 2012 and April 2013 were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in group A received fentanyl-propofol, while patients in group B received remifentanyl-propofol-lidocaine. There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender, age, and body weight (P>0.05). Conventional intubation induction method was used for group A:0.05-0.10 mg/kg midazolam, 4 μg/kg fentanyl, 1.0-1.5 mg/kg propofol, and 0.6-0.9 mg/kg atracurium were given and tracheal intubation was performed after muscle relaxation. Group B patients were treated with remifentanyl propofol-lidocaine compound liquid slow intravenous injection, and compound cricothyroid membrane puncture method before endotracheal intubation. We observed the two groups of patients for vital signs before and after induction, and choking cough reactions. ResultsPatients in both the two groups were all able to complete tracheal intubation. Circulation change and incidence of tachycardia in patients of group A were significantly higher than those in group B (P<0.05). The rates of bradycardia, hypoxemia, and choking cough response were low in both groups with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionRemifentanyl propofol-lidocaine compound liquid can be safely used for implementation of endotracheal intubation in patients who are awake, and the hemodynamic stability can be maintained.

Current status and influencing factors of salivation in patients with orotracheal cannula

Objective To investigate the current situation of salivation in patients with orotracheal cannula, and to systematically analyze its influencing factors. Methods Patients who underwent tracheal intubation treatment in 47 tertiary comprehensive medical institutions were selected between October 10th and 20th, 2023. A cross-sectional survey method was used to conduct an online survey of the patient’s salivation status. The patients were divided into the salivation group and no-salivation group. Results A total of 565 questionnaires were collected and 561 were valid, with an effective recovery rate of 99%. Among 561 patients, 284 were males (50.62%) and 277 were females (49.38%), with an age of (59.80±10.96) years; 159 cases of salivation occurred, with a total static saliva flow rate of (7.21±3.15) mL and the incidence of salivation was 28.34% (159/561). There were statistically significant differences in age, education level, body mass index, primary disease, number of concurrent functional impairments, concurrent oral diseases, smoking, intubation days, intubation depth, intubation process, sedation and/or analgesia days, and enteral nutrition treatment between the two groups (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index, neurological diseases, number of concurrent functional impairments, concurrent oral diseases, smoking, intubation days and intubation process were independent risk factors for salivation in patients with oral catheterization. Conclusion The incidence of salivation in patients with orotracheal cannula is 28.34%, which is directly related to body mass index, neurological diseases, number of concurrent functional impairments, concurrent oral diseases, smoking, intubation days and intubation process.
