Abstract
Tidal volume monitoring may help minimize lung injury during respiratory assistance. Surface imaging using time-of-flight camera is a new, non-invasive, non-contact, radiation-free, and easy-to-use technique that enables tidal volume and respiratory rate measurements. The objectives of the study were to determine the accuracy of Time-of-Flight volume (VTTOF) and respiratory rate (RRTOF) measurements at the bedside, and to validate its application for spontaneously breathing patients under high flow nasal canula. Data analysis was performed within the ReaSTOC data-warehousing project (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02893462). All data were recorded using standard monitoring devices, and the computerized medical file. Time-of-flight technique used a Kinect V2 (Microsoft, Redmond, WA, USA) to acquire the distance information, based on measuring the phase delay between the emitted light-wave and received backscattered signals. 44 patients (32 under mechanical ventilation; 12 under high-flow nasal canula) were recorded. High correlation (r = 0.84; p < 0.001), with low bias (-1.7 mL) and acceptable deviation (75 mL) was observed between VTTOF and VTREF under ventilation. Similar performance was observed for respiratory rate (r = 0.91; p < 0.001; bias < 1b/min; deviation ≤ 5b/min). Measurements were possible for all patients under high-flow nasal canula, detecting overdistension in 4 patients (tidal volume > 8 mL/kg) and low ventilation in 6 patients (tidal volume < 6 mL/kg). Tidal volume monitoring using time-of-flight camera (VTTOF) is correlated to reference values. Time-of-flight camera enables continuous and non-contact respiratory monitoring under high-flow nasal canula, and enables to detect tidal volume and respiratory rate changes, while modifying flow. It enables respiratory monitoring for spontaneously patients, especially while using high-flow nasal oxygenation.
