These known risks may be mitigated using a standardized suctioning process and saline to lubricate the airways. Our goal for measuring inspiratory and expiratory EIT was to determine: 1) whether removal of obstructive mucus from the airways resulted in improved alveolar recruitment and recovery; and/or 2) whether bronchospasm, airway edema (irritation of mucosal layer), laryngospasm, or negative pressure related to the different techniques contributed to changes in lung volumes, especially in the post-suction period. 0000011625 00000 n Interestingly, the greater mucus mass obtained with nasopharyngeal suctioning in the absence of increased risk from clinical deterioration due to airway obstruction or alveolar de-recruitment after suctioning may be clinically meaningful to some bedside clinicians.

The aim of this study was to evaluate respiratory function and clinical response in hospitalized children with viral bronchiolitis with 2 different suctioning techniques. 0000127318 00000 n 0000011253 00000 n There were no observed bradycardic episodes, hypoxemic episodes, or vomiting in any subjects to suggest clinical deterioration with either suctioning intervention. We acknowledge Dr Joan Roberts and Karen Thomas PhD RN for providing their assistance with the study design. It will open today at 12:00PM.*. This is the first study to address objective measures of clinical improvement or deterioration based on changes in gas exchange, heart rate, and estimates of lung volumes in spontaneously breathing infants with viral bronchiolitis between 2 widely used suctioning techniques. Mr DiBlasi has disclosed relationships with Drger Medical, Vapotherm, Mallinckrodt Medical, and Vero Biotech. Put the large tube gently against your childs nose. Bronchiolitis is the most common reason for hospitalization in infants nationally, accounting for nearly 100,000 admissions annually at an estimated cost of $1.73 billion.1 The management of bronchiolitis is largely supportive and focuses on hydration, nutrition, and airway clearance. 0000117632 00000 n Previous studies have reported cardiorespiratory instability in critically ill infants during suctioning to be partially attributed to alveolar de-recruitment with loss of lung volume.23 Several other in vivo studies have used EIT to estimate lung volume changes in critically ill subjects between different forms of suctioning techniques (ie, open vs closed) during conventional and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation. To quantify the mucus removed during suctioning, a specimen trap (Centurion, Williamstem, Michigan) was attached to the end of the suction device. 0000121587 00000 n Child Care and Illness: Should Your Child Stay Home? Subjects remained supine either in a crib or in a caregivers arms and were maintained in this position throughout the study. Each specimen trap and suctioning apparatus was weighed prior to and following suctioning. The American Association for Respiratory Care recommends that suctioning should only be initiated in response to clinical signs and symptoms that indicate presence of secretions in the airways.2 One study reported that lapses of > 4 h between suctioning events (using any method) during the first 24 h of hospitalization may result in increased length of hospital stay.5 Investigators have reported that more frequent use of nasopharyngeal suction during the first 24 h was associated with longer hospital stay for infants with bronchiolitis than did use of nasal aspiration (2.35 0.2 d with 60% nasopharyngeal suction vs 1.75 0.2 d with no deep suction).5 These researchers attributed these findings to the increased likelihood of edema and irritation in the upper airways with the use of the more invasive nasopharyngeal catheter. 0 Print ISSN: 0020-1324 Online ISSN: 1943-3654. 0000140354 00000 n Make sure you have a new, clean filter in your aspirator. The moderate association between sputum mass and EELI at 30 min for nasopharyngeal suctioning is a finding that warrants further evaluation. 0000106340 00000 n There is variability in the technique and frequency of suctioning used to manage secretions in hospitalized infants with bronchiolitis. This nose sucking tube (nasal aspirator) uses human suction to clear your childs nose and the back of the throat (Picture 1). Dr Smallwood disclosed relationships with Ventec Life Systems and Capsule Technology. Because bronchiolitis is considered a heterogeneous lung disease, regional assessment of lung impedance may provide descriptive analysis on the effects of suctioning in dependent lung regions where gravitational effects are more likely to promote sedimentation and inspissation of sputum when subjects are supine.

0000137072 00000 n One subject was missing EELI values for the time points at 10 min and 20 min for the nasopharyngeal suctioning. Global and regional tidal variation and EELI were analyzed offline with a separate MatLab Toolkit to observe values pre-suction (baseline) and at 10, 20, and 30 min following suction.

The subject appeared to have an improvement in tidal variation in the dependent sections of the lungs with both suctioning techniques. 5), global EIT data did not show differences among the study cohort, and the study was designed only to observe descriptive information on regional ventilation homogeneity between the 2 methods. 0000129816 00000 n 0000128297 00000 n But do they really work? Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Seattle Childrens Hospital, Seattle, Washington. 0000131070 00000 n Airway clearance is especially important in infants because they may have difficulty clearing thick secretions from the airways that persist despite the patients best cough effort.2 Chest physiotherapy and postural drainage have traditionally been used to mobilize secretions, but a recent Cochrane Review failed to show a reduction in clinical severity of disease with these therapies, so they are not recommended as a standard practice for patients hospitalized with bronchiolitis.3 The standard for airway clearance in bronchiolitis involves suctioning the nares and distal airway to temporarily remove secretions from the upper and lower airways, reduce airway obstruction, and improve lung mechanics and gas exchange. The best nasal aspirators are efficient, unintimidating, and easy to use. 0000106188 00000 n trailer Assessing physiologic responses to suctioning and airway clearance using objective measurements in this patient population has been extremely challenging and is limited primarily to , heart rate, breathing frequency, clinical respiratory scores, and documented adverse events.7,8 With newer approaches, however, such as electrical impedance tomography (EIT), it is possible to measure global and regional changes in lung impedance through the application of an electrode array placed circumferentially around the patients chest. A total of 19 children were enrolled in the study from February 2017 to July 2018; 16 subjects completed the study and are included in the analysis. 0000139494 00000 n 0000108073 00000 n 0000009335 00000 n Investigators reviewed the raw data for each condition (2 min) and calculated mean SD values for global changes in the inspiratory and EELI waveform by selecting a stable period that included a minimum of 10 spontaneous breaths. 0000010719 00000 n Compassion.

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is more invasive and may introduce greater risk for gagging, vomiting, bradycardia, bleeding (ie, airway trauma), bronchospasm and edema, atelectasis, and deteroration in gas exchange and lung mechanics than nasal aspiration. Eligible subjects were randomized in a 1:1 allocation to one of two treatment sequences: nasal aspiration followed by nasopharyngeal suction, or nasal pharyngeal suction followed by nasal aspiration. 0000108994 00000 n We tried out several gadgets that promise relief for nasal congestion and consulted with pediatricians about best practices.

Heres a list of our favorites to consider. However, based on our findings, both suctioning techniques appear to be safe for removing sputum from the airways of infants with bronchiolitis. Sputum mass (g) was calculated based on the difference in pre/post weights of catheters and specimen traps. Model-based means and physiologic measurement comparisons for these outcomes are reported in Table 2. Respiratory clinical severity score measures were compared between the 2 interventions using a linear mixed-effects model to evaluate differences in pre- and post-suction values for each suction intervention. As such, sputum weights were not adjusted based on the number of saline drops used. Access resources for you to use during your baby's hospital stay and at home. Put dried pieces back together.
