- Conditions
- Severe Viral Bronchiolitis

- Brief Summary
Severe acute viral bronchiolitis is the leading cause of pediatric intensive care admission. The first-line recommended ventilation support is continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which reduces the work of breathing (WOB) and improves gas exchange. Although Non invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NiPPV) is increasingly used in case of CPAP failure to avoid intubation, no study has yet evaluated if this support could effectively reduce the effort of breathing.
Our hypothesis is that NiPPV could reduce WOB more effectively than CPAP alone, and might lead to reduce intubation in the most severe bronchiolitis.
The purpose of this study is to compare WOB between CPAP and NiPPV, thanks to esophageal pressure measurement, in infants hospitalized for severe acute bronchiolitis.
- Detailed Description
Severe acute viral bronchiolitis is the leading cause of pediatric intensive care admission. The first-line recommended ventilation support is non invasive ventilation (NIV) with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which has been proved to reduce the work of breathing (WOB) and improve gas exchange. Non invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NiPPV) is increasingly used in case of CPAP failure to avoid intubation. Nevertheless, no study has ever evaluated its effectiveness on the discharge of respiratory muscles in severe bronchiolitis.
Measurement of esophageal and gastric pressures with an esogastric catheter allows an estimation of WOB thanks to the calculation of the esophageal pressure-time product (PTPes), and a calculation of the transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) as the difference between gastric and esophageal pressures. This minimally invasive technique can be used at the bedside to assess the efficacy of ventilation support and is now increasingly used in Intensive Care Units to assist ventilation-targeted strategies.
Our hypothesis is that NiPPV could reduce WOB more effectively than CPAP alone, and might lead to reduce intubation in the most severe bronchiolitis.
The main purpose of this study is to compare PTPes/min between CPAP and NiPPV in infants hospitalized for severe acute bronchiolitis.
Secondary objectives are i) to compare other parameters of WOB, gas exchanges and breathing pattern in both ventilator supports ii) to compare the rate of patient-ventilator asynchronies in 2 different setting of NiPPV ("clinical" and "physiological") iii) to assess if NiPPV is associated with reduced intubation rate, time under sedation and ventilation, and length of hospitalization as compared to CPAP.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Esophageal pressure-time product per minute (PTPes/min) 20 minutes Esophageal pressure-time product per minute (PTPes/min) is calculated by the area under the curve of the Pes during inspiration, expressed in cmH2O.s / min.
The PTPes/min will be measured under CPAP (" clinical" and "physiological" setting) and under NiPPV (" clinical" and "physiological" setting) during a period of quiet breathing of 5 minutes.
- Secondary Outcome Measures

Tidal volume (Vt) 20 minutes In mL Breathing pattern Paramaters will be measured under CPAP ("clinical" and "physiological" setting) and NiPPV (" clinical" and "physiological" setting) during a period of quiet breathing of 5 minutes.

Values extend from 0 (best outcome) to 33 (worst outcome).
Modified Wood's Clinical Asthma Score (m-WCAS) At inclusion and at the end of the measurements, i.e. 3 hours from inclusion Modified Wood's Clinical Asthma Score (m-WCAS) is a respiratory failure score that includes 3 levels of gravity corresponding to 5 respiratory distress clinical signs. Values ranged from 0 (best score) to 10 (worst score)

* auto-triggering (cycle delivered by the ventilator without patient's inspiratory effort),
* double triggering (2 successive cycles delivered by the ventilator for a single inspiratory effort of the patient),
* wasted effort (patient inspiratory effort not followed by a cycle delivered by the ventilator),
* daly asynchronies (advance or delay of the cycle delivered by the ventilator compared to the start of the patient's inspiration or expiration) The percentage of patient-ventilator asynchronies will be analyzed under NiPPV ("clinical" setting and "physiological" setting) during a period of quiet breathing of 5 minutes.
