简要总结
Background: Beneficial effects from noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in acute COPD are well-established, but couple to nebulization is still challenging. Aim: To compare radioaerosol pulmonary deposition and radioaerosol mass balance in the different compartments (pulmonary and extrapulmonary) using vibrating mesh nebulizer (VMN) and jet nebulizer (JN) coupled to NIV.Methods: It was a crossover study involving 9 stable moderate to severe COPD randomly allocated for both phases of the study: Phase 1(NIV+MN,n=9) and phase 2(NIV+JN,n=9). Bronchodilators were delivered during NIV using a facemask (pressures of 12 cmH2O and 5 cmH2O - inspiratory and expiratory, respectively). Radioactivity counts were performed using a gamma camera and regions of interest(ROIs) were delimited. We determine aerosol mass balance from the lungs, upper airways, stomach, nebulizer, circuit, inspiratory and expiratory filters, and mask as a percentage.

入选标准
- •Inclusion criteria were considered as follows: moderate to severe stable COPD (50% ≤ FEV1 < 80% from predicted values or 30% ≤ FEV1 < 50% from predicted values)(4); none exacerbation in the last six months; age between 18 - 60 years; both sexes; no smoking history; able to understand verbal commands, and consent to participate in this protocol.
排除标准
- •Presence of dyspnea; cardiopulmonary diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, cardiac failure, myocardial infarction, pneumothorax); hyperthermia; hemodynamic instability (heart rate > 150 bpm and systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg); arrhythmia absence; pregnancy; and contraindications for use of NIV (29).
结局指标
主要结局
radioaerosol deposition index into the lungs
时间窗: 10 months
Immediately after inhalation, participants sat in a chair with the back positioned in front to the gamma camera (STARCAM 3200 GE, California, USA) to obtain radioactivity counts from the posterior thorax during a period of 300 seconds on a matrix of 256 X 256. After, participants were positioned sitting in front to the gama camera to obtain images from face. Then, the same procedure was performed to analysis deposition in the nebulizer, circuits, inspiratory filter, expiratory filter and face mask. Counts representing stomach were obtained from posterior thorax and corrections for decay of technetium were used to during extrapulmonary measurements
次要结局
- radioaerosol mass balance that reached pulmonary and extrapulmonary compartments.(10 months)
