Comparison of the Hemodynamic Safety of Two Common Alveolar Recruitment Manoeuvres With Regard to Cardiac Output in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit (RHERA1)

February 22, 2017 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Comparison of the Hemodynamic Safety of Two Common Alveolar Recruitment Manoeuvres With Regard to Cardiac Output in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit: a Randomized Study

Protective ventilation - combining a low tidal volume (between 6 and 8 ml/kg) and alveolar recruitment (AR) manoeuvres repeated every 30 minutes - is currently the standard of care for decreasing morbidity associated with mechanical ventilation.

In contrast, there is no consensus on the type of recruitment manoeuvre, which varies from one centre to another and from one study to another.

The investigators intend to compare two currently used AR techniques with regard to their ventilatory efficacy and hemodynamic safety:

  • An end-tidal plateau at 30 cmH20 for 30 seconds.
  • An end-tidal plateau at 10 cmH20 above the patient's plateau pressure for 30 seconds, without exceeding 30 cmH20.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
30 cmH20 for 30 seconds

plateau pressure is hold on at 30 cmH20 pour 30 seconds. The cardiac output and the lung aeration is assessed by ultrasound measures at 3 times: before, at the end of the recruitment and 30 minutes later.

echocardiography - arterial oximetry

• Prospective, simultaneous recording of the cardiac output (measured non-invasively via transthoracic echocardiography) and a number of parameters commonly monitored in the surgical intensive care unit (CVP, SBP/DBP/MBP).
measured by co-oximetry of a blood sample taken via the arterial catheter implemented for critical care
10 cmH20 above

plateau pressure is hold on at 10 cmH20 above. The cardiac output and the lung aeration is assessed by ultrasound measures at 3 times: before, at the end of the recruitment and 30 minutes later.
