Evaluation of the effect of prone ventilation in severe pneumonia in high-altitude areas
Objective To evaluate the effect of prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude.Methods By convenience sampling method,80 children with severe pneumonia hospitalized in intensive care department of a tertiary A children's hospital in Xining,Qinghai Province from June 2021 to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects,and the regional randomization group method was used to divide into a test group and a control group with 40 cases in each group.On the basis of routine care,the test group received prone ventilation once a day for 6 to 12 h;the control group received supine ventilation.Respiratory mechanical parameters(oxygenation index,oxygen saturation,arterial oxygen partial pressure,arterial CO2 partial pressure),mechanical ventilation duration and safety parameters(incidence of unplanned extubation,stress injury)at 6 h and 12 h of mechanical ventilation were compared.Results There were no shedding cases.The interaction between oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure(P＜0.05)in the 2 groups was compared(P＞0.05).The results of simple effect analysis showed that at 6 h,the oxygen saturation and oxygenation index in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).At 12 h of mechanical ventilation,the oxygenation index,blood oxygen saturation and arterial oxygen partial pressure in the test group were higher than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The time of mechanical ventilation in the test group was102.00(60.00,153.00)h and 126.00(108.00,156.00)h in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.013).The incidence of unplanned extubation and pressure injury were compared,and the differences in 2 groups were not significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Prone ventilation in children with severe pneumonia at high altitude is safe and feasible,which is helpful to improve the respiratory function and shorten the time of mechanical ventilation.
