Obesity Effects on Intra-
abdominal Pressure
![Page 4: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Abdominal Compartment Syndrome
• Syndrome well recognized by surgeons
• Increasing evidence in Medical ICU patients
• Transduce Foley catheter or paracentesis
needle or measure gastric pressure
![Page 5: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
•50% had IAP > 12 mmHg
•8% had ACS
•BMI was the only significant
independent predictor of IAP
in multivariate analysis
![Page 6: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Effects of ACS
High IAP can:
1. overcome the closing pressure of intra-
abdominal venules which can lead to renal
failure or hepatic necrosis
2. raise pleural pressure with associated
pulmonary effects
3. Lead to high pleural pressure which can
create confusion with CVP and PAOP
![Page 7: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
ACS – intra-abdominal
• We have observed cases of apparent
hepatorenal syndrome which were
reversible with paracentesis.
• Compromise of other organs also
reported especially when
IAP>40mmHg
• Trauma surgeons perform laparatomy
for anuria with good success
![Page 8: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ACS can elevate Pleural
Pressure
• Diaphragm may remodel with chronicity so
more IAP is transmitted to thorax i.e. less
recoil across the diaphragm
• Obesity or ascites may effect Ppl more than
acute processes
• If Ppl is really positive why would the lung
not deflate?

How is Positive Pleural Pressure Sustained? Is Negative Transpulmonary Pressure Possible?
• 1) Atelectasis
• 2) Flow limitation
• 3) Airway closure
• Presumably regional variations in
pleural pressure allow some lung
regions to remain patent throughout
the respiratory cycle
• PEEP could help overcome collapse
![Page 11: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Measurement Issues
• CVP and wedge are generally
referenced to atmosphere
• Positive pleural pressure could
effectively squeeze the RA and LV
• The transmural pressure (in-out) is
the relevant distending pressure
• Could have very high CVP or wedge
with small volumes i.e.
resuscitation may be indicated

Summarize ACS
• Elevated IAP is common in obesity
• Important effects on abdominal viscera
• Raised pleural pressure has implications for
mechanical ventilation
• Awareness of pleural pressure is critical for
interpretation of CVP and Wedge
• Raised ICP may respond to laparotomy

Obesity Effects on Chest Wall
• Compliance of the lung but not the chest wall
is reduced in a number of obesity studies.
• Baseline position is altered i.e. pleural
pressure is positive but pressure/volume
characteristic is preserved.

•Studied modest obesity by today’s standards
•Normal lung compliance
•Reduced chest wall compliance
•Likely confounded by behavioral influences during
wakefulness i.e chest wall muscle activity
![Page 19: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
JAP 1984
•Early chest wall studies were likely confounded by
behavioral influences
e.g. muscle activity during wakefulness
•Subsequent studies done during relaxed
wakefulness or paralysis or sleep
•Chest wall compliance is likely normal in obesity

Summarize Obesity and Chest Wall
• Most data indicate that the lung not the chest wall is stiff
• Evidence of alveolar collapse suggests benefits to PEEP
• Airway opening pressures tell us little about distending pressures across the lung.
• 6 cc/kg tidal volume gives variable lung stretch.
![Page 25: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

How Many Have a Good Sense How to Ventilate this patient ?
• 45 year old with bilateral infiltrates has ABG of pH=7.35 PaCO2=43 mmHg, PaO2=70 mmHg on FIO2=0.6
• Who would give PEEP=8 cmH2O vs. 15 cmH2O?

Conservative views expressed
6 cc/kg volume pre-set is the gold standard
Lower is better
Goal is to do no harm with ventilator i.e. prevent
mechanical injury

Stress Concentration
Mead, JAP 1970, 28(5):596

concentration of
stress could be > 4
times that applied to
the airway
• Airway pressure of
30 cmH2O 140 cm
H2O in some regions

• Very high shear forces can occur at
junctions of normal and abnormal lung
• No safe pressure (AJRCCM 2007)
• Strategies to promote homogeneity may
promote lung protection
• “get it open, leave it open”
• Homogeneity is everything

Recruitment Maneuver
• Prolonged high alveolar pressure to recruit collapsed lung units – PEEP 30 - 40 cm H2O – PC of 20 cm H2O, Rate 10/min; I:E 1:1 – ½ - 2 min
• PEEP to maintain recruitment

Background
• The pressure applied to the lung itself is usually not known, and is often assumed to be similar to the ventilator airway pressures.
• In some patients, the chest wall contributes a large part of the respiratory system elastance, making the above assumption false.
![Page 38: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Transpulmonary Pressure
• Transpulmonary pressure (PL) is the pressure actually distending the lung.
PL = Pao - Ppl
• Knowing pleural pressure (Ppl) could allow calculation of transpulmonary pressure (PL) to individualize pressures appropriate to the lungs.
![Page 39: Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS - MemorialCare · Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS Atul Malhotra, MD Chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care UCSD President-Elect ATS 2015 . Outline •](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022507/5ac90bf87f8b9a40728d4354/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• Plateau pressure minus PEEP predicts mortality in lots of different trials
• The trials were designed for the most part to limit tidal volume
• Still emphasize importance of transpulmonary pressure in determining lung stress

Hypothesis
• Depending on the chest wall contribution to respiratory mechanics, a given PEEP or Pplat may be adequate for one patient but potentially injurious for another.
• This may explain equivocal results in clinical trials and discrepancies with animal studies.

• EPVENT Small pilot study • Some have questioned accuracy of Pes • Magnitude of any artifacts appears small
compared to measured values. • Pes well validated in dogs by Pelosi and Amato • Can predict Pes with Pabd suggesting not just
cardiac weight • Would seem unlikely that outcome would improve
by titrating to artifacts • Larger studies are needed and are planned

Summary • Oxygenation is one of many factors that should
influence ventilator settings • Mechanics may be more important than oxygenation
per se since patients rarely die from hypoxemia and the goal is to do no mechanical harm with ventilator
• Multiple factors including individual’s hemodynamics and mechanics should influence PEEP decisions as well as response to therapy (recruitability)
• We need more RCTs but small existing studies which have titrated ventilator settings based on lung and chest wall mechanics have succeeded.
