About this study

Official title: Effects of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Optimisation on Cerebral Oxygenation in COVID-19 Patients With Severe ARDS

The aim of the present study is to examine whether cerebral oxygenation could be a more useful parameter than peripheral oxygen saturation to guide clinical titration of permissive hypoxemia in COVID-19 ARDS patients

Read the detailed description

Mechanical ventilation is the cornerstone of supportive management for most ARDS patients to prevent life-threatening hypoxemia. Arterial oxygenation can be improved via ventilator by increasing fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2) and/or increasing mean airway pressure. When treating mechanically ventilated ARDS patients, the benefit of improved arterial oxygenation must be balanced against the potential risk of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), oxygen toxicity occurring with high FiO2 and development of right heart failure.

Arterial oxygen saturation target of 88-95 % and partial oxygen pressure (PaO2) target of 7.3-10.6 are advocated in the management of patients with ARDS. Surprisingly little randomized evidence exists to support these values and current recommendations are thus arbitrary and largely based on normal physiologic values.

Given the lack of evidence of strategies in oxygenating critically ill patients to an oxygen saturation and partial oxygen pressure that is generally accepted to be 'normal,' permissive hypoxemia may offer an alternative that has the potential to improve patient outcomes by avoiding unnecessary harm. Permissive hypoxemia is a concept in which a lower level of arterial oxygenation than usual is accepted in order to avoid the potentially detrimental effects of high fractional inspired oxygen and invasive mechanical ventilation with high pressures, while maintaining adequate oxygen delivery by optimizing cardiac output.

Pulse oximetry is a simple, non-invasive and universally used method to monitor peripheral oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in a variety of clinical settings. Pulse oximetry depends on pulsatile blood flow and only measures the oxyhemoglobin in arterial blood as it leaves the heart. However, this measure does not provide information regarding organ or tissue oxygenation, which reflects the important local balance between oxygen supply and demand.

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) allows for continuous measurement of regional tissue oxygenation which reflects perfusion status and enables clinicians to directly monitor fluctuations in real time. NIRS reflects the balance of oxygen that is delivered minus what is extracted at tissue level and is an indicator of the tissue oxygen uptake.
