Gedetailleerde beschrijving
Critically ill patients hospitalized at Intensive Care Units (ICU) are characterized by an accelerated muscle wasting, which leads to general muscle weakness and loss of physical functions even after discharge. Particularly, muscle respiratory wasting will occur early (18 to 69 hours) in up to 60% of patients with mechanical ventilation (MV), leading rapidly to diaphragmatic weakness, which is associated with prolonged MV use, longer ICU and hospital stay and higher mortality risk. Sepsis and muscle inactivity, derived from sedation and MV use, are key driver mechanisms to developing these negative consequences, which can be avoided through early physical activation. However, exercise is limited at early stages of care, where sedation and MV are needed, delaying muscle activation and favoring a vicious circle.
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) represents an alternative to achieve early muscle contraction in non-cooperative patients, being able to prevent local muscle wasting and, according to some reports, has the potential to shorten the time on MV, suggesting a systemic effect through myokines, a diverse range of cytokines and chemokines secreted by myocytes during muscle contraction. These factors modulate the function and metabolism of distant organs and can promote muscle cell proliferation and growth in order to maintain muscle structure and function. However, no studies have evaluated whether NMES applied to peripheral muscles can exert distant muscle effects over the diaphragm, ameliorating its weakness, and if this protective profile is associated to myokine's change in critically ill patients.
We hypothesize that in mechanical ventilated ICU patients NMES contributes to prevent respiratory muscle weakness when initiated at an early phase of their critical illness, and this effect is associated to acute changes in myokine profile, being able to facilitate discontinuation of MV and decrease ICU length of stay.
This proposal comprises a randomized controlled study of NMES applied twice a day, for 3 days, in comparison to standard care (no NMES). Thirty-two patients will be recruited in the first 48 hours after connection to MV, and randomly assigned to either control group or stimulated group (16 subjects for each group). Muscle characterization of quadriceps and diaphragm (Structural ultrasonography evaluation of muscle thickness and tracheal twitch pressure assessment, derived from magnetic stimulation of phrenic nerve, for diaphragmatic strength) will be performed at baseline (Day 1, prior to the first NMES session) and after the last NMES session (morning of day 4). Myokine measurements (IL-1, IL-6, IL-15, BDNF, Myostatin and Decorin), through blood serum obtained from peripheric blood samples, will be performed at baseline 1 hour before NMES (T-1), just before starting NMES (T0), at the end of NMES session (T0.5), and 2 and 6 hours later (T2 and T6). This myokine curves will be repeated on days 1 and 3 at the first NMES session of the day. Control group will be assessed in the same way and timing, with the exception that blood samples will be performed at T0 and T6 of days 1 and 3. Additionally, functional outcomes such as MV time and ICU length of stay will be registered for all patients at ICU discharge. Standard care won´t be altered, performing passive mobilization according to ICU procedures in both groups.

Experimenteel: NMES group
NMES will be implemented simultaneously on quadriceps femoris muscles of both lower limbs using an electrical stimulator (TRAINFES 6 ADVANCED, Biomedical devices Spa, Santiago, Chile).
Four rubber surface electrodes will be placed over motor points.
However, since the electrodes will cover big proportion of muscle surface, anatomical distribution of the belly muscle plus visible contraction of it will be considered for correct setting.
The stimulation will be delivered by biphasic current, symmetric (compensated) impulses of 45-50 Hz frequency, 400 μsec pulse duration.
With a stimulus duration of 25 minutes, and an on-off programming of 5 seconds on (including 0.8 second rise time, 3.4 seconds of plateau and 0.8 second of fall time) and 5 seconds off, at current intensities able to cause maximal visible contractions.
The session duration will be 30 minutes and will be applied twice a day.
