Outline• What is mechanical ventilation?• Indications
• Hypoventilation – Differentials!• Hypoxemia – Differentials!• Concern for fatigue/exhaustion
• Types and modes of ventilation• Pressure vs. volume limited• A/C, SIMV, CPAP• PEEP
• Complications• Prognosis• What is the veterinary evidence?
What is mechanical ventilation?• Using a machine to perform some or all of the work of breathing
• PPV: Positive Pressure Ventilation• Machine provides an
increase in airway pressure to move gas into the lungs
Iron Lungà negative pressure ventilation
“Mandy Jo”
• 4 yo FS American Staffordshire terrier• Found acutely paralyzed at the bottom of the stairs• No motor function x 4• Hyper-reflexive x 4• Intact pain sensation
• Respiration mainly diaphragmatic, little intercostal movement
• What are your differentials? What would you recommend to the owners?
“Mandy Jo”: Diagnostics• Suspect spinal cord injury• Myelogram shows compression at C2/C3• Impairment of respiration due to failure of impulse generation in the phrenic and intercostal nerves

“Mandy Jo”: Post-op
Dorsal laminectomy C2/C3/C4Post-op admit to ICU: No chest wall movement, cyanotic
pH 7.01PaO2 54 mmHg (FiO2 21%)
PaCO2 80 mmHgHCO3 25 mmol/L
What is your diagnosis?
Calculating the A-a gradient• Useful in determining lung function
• Is the dog just hypoventilating or is there a pulmonary parenchymal problem?
• The simplified version: • PAO2 = 150 – 1.1 x [PaCO2]• A-a gradient = PAO2 – PaO2
• Normal = 5-15 mmHg
• The REALLY simplified version: • PaO2 + PaCO2 > 120 = NORMAL A-a gradient• On room air only!
Ways to deliver oxygen “Mandy Jo” ABG following oxygen supplementation:
pH 7.003PaO2 253 mmHg (mask)
PaCO2 91 mmHgHCO3 24.2 mmol/L
What do you think now?What would you like to do?
Indications for PPV
• Hypoventilation• PaCO2 > 60 mmHg
• Hypoxemia• PaO2 < 60 mmHg despite O2 supplementation
• Impending fatigue• PaCO2 increasing• PaO2 decreasing and non-responsive to increased
FiO2• “If you’re staring at your patient in the oxygen cage
and wondering if you should initiate PPV, the answer is probably yes”
• Other situations
Causes of hypoventilation• Think about it anatomically!

“Mandy Jo”The decision to ventilate
Plan: • Use the ventilator to provide
respiratory support while the spinal cord heals
Decision:• How should we do this?
“Mandy Jo”: Goals of PPV in an animal with ventilatory failure
• To increase tidal volume towards normal (Vt=10-15 ml/kg)• To improve minute ventilation to allow:
• Elimination of CO2
• Resolution of respiratory acidosis
• Resolution of distress• (Normal minute ventilation
Ve=150-250 ml/kg/min)
Modes of Ventilation
• Controlled ventilation
• Ventilator does all of the work
• Patient can trigger ventilator
• Assisted ventilation
• Patient can initiate breaths and ventilator assists
• Synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation
• Combination of mandatory (controlled) breaths and
spontaneous breaths
Modes of Ventilation
• Pressure-controlled ventilation (PC)• Gas is delivered to a chosen airway pressure, regardless of the tidal
volume • Appropriate for animals with lung disease
• Volume-controlled ventilation (VC)• A pre-determined tidal volume is given regardless of the airway
pressure generated• Appropriate for animals with normal lungs and some with lung
disease
Trigger, Cycle and Limit Variable
• Inspiratory trigger variableà time, flow or pressure necessary to
cause the machine to start inspiration
• If the animal attempts to breathe and generates the preset negative flow or
pressure, the ventilator will synchronize or assist the breath
• Cycle variableà causes inspiration to end (flow or time)
• Limit variableà preset limits that will not terminate a breath, but
cannot be exceeded
Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP)• Positive pressure applied at the end of each breath• Purpose: Recruit alveoli and hold them open for use in gas
exchange + prevent repetitive collapse and opening of the alveloi

Traditional recommendations for PPV settings
• Tidal volume 10-15 ml/kg
• RR 10-12 bpm
• Peak Inspiratory Pressure10-20 mmHg
• PEEP 0-2 cm H20
• Emphasis on maintaining adequate values for PaO2 and PaCO2

Airway management in ventilator patients
• Low pressure high volume endotracheal tubes
• Heated humidifiers always added to circuit
• Suction airway secretions as needed• Maintain sterile airway as much as possible
• Immunosuppression and invasive airway tubes increase risk of ventilator acquired pneumonia
“Mandy Jo”
•Volume limited ventilation
•Tracheostomy tube
•Nutritional support
The benefits of tracheostomy Modes of Ventilation
Synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV)
• Ventilator is set to deliver a minimum desired number of breaths per minute
• Patient can breathe spontaneously between ventilator breaths• Some work of breathing is assumed by the patient• Useful for weaning, preventing muscle atrophy
“Mandy Jo”: Progression
• Gradual improvement in
respiratory muscle activity
• Weaned from ventilator after 5
days
• Walking after 4 weeks

• No significant relationship between the need for perioperative PPV and• Breed• Age• Underlying disease process
Results: Outcome
• 10 of 14 dogs weaned from ventilator (71%)
• 4/14 euthanized• Multiple organ failure (n=2)• No improvement in ventilation after 10 days (n=1)• Owner elected euthanasia (n=1)

Neurologic outcome in survivors• 9/10 dogs were ambulatory with bladder and bowel function• 1/10 non-ambulatory• Mean time to return to function = 53.4 days (n=7)
“Sasha”• 30 kg FS Golden Retriever • Hit by car 1 hour prior to presentation• Heart rate 200 bpm, weak pulses and pale mucous membranes
• Distended abdomen, possible fluid wave• Respiration rate 48 bpm, significantly increased respiratory effort
• Diffuse crackles on lung auscultation
• PCV 34% TS 4.2 g/dl
“Sasha”:Thoracic radiographs at admission
Pulmonary contusion• Hemorrhage from multiple capillaries into the pulmonary
parenchyma and alveoli
• Can progress over 12-24 hours following initial trauma• Ongoing hemorrhage• Pulmonary edema following fluid therapy
• Respiratory distress often worsens before it improves

“Sasha”The decision to ventilate
Plan: • Use the ventilator to provide respiratory support while the lung parenchyma heals
Decision:• How should we do this?
“Sasha”: Goals of PPV for patients with failure of pulmonary gas exchange
• To improve tidal volume • To improve gas exchange by opening
recruitable alveoli• To minimize the energy expenditure
associated with increased work of breathing • To resolve respiratory distress• To minimize ventilator-induced lung injury by
avoiding high airway distending pressures
Long term anesthesia in ventilator patients
• Anesthesia is needed to facilitate maintenance of the endotracheal tube
• Injectable anesthetics and sedatives usually given by CRI• Opioids• Benzodiazepines• Ketamine• Dexmedetomidine• Propofol• Alfaxalone
• Neuromuscular blockade if needed
Barotrauma and volutrauma in abnormal lungs
• Normal tidal volumes may • Over-distend compliant alveoli• Produce high airway pressures
• Some alveoli and terminal bronchioles may be collapsed at end expiration and expanded during inspiration: termed “recruitable”
• Cyclical expansion and collapse of recruitable alveoli may result in shear stress in these and adjacent alveoli
Problems with PPV in abnormal lungs
• Over-distension → alveolar epithelial and capillary endothelial injury in previously normal alveoli
• High airway pressures may contribute to barotrauma, resulting in:• Interstitial emphysema• Pneumomediastinum• Pneumoperitoneum• Subcutaneous emphysema• Pneumothorax
Pneumothorax in ventilated animals: What do our studies show?
• King et al. JAVMA 1994
• Pneumothorax developed in 12 animals (29%) during PPV
• Mean PIP in pneumothorax dogs: 36.9 � 13.1 cm H2O
• Mean PIP in those without pneumothorax: 23 � 7.7 cm H2OP < 0.05

Pneumothorax in ventilated animals: What do our studies show?
• Lee et al. JAVMA 2005• Pneumothorax developed during PPV in 15/53 cats (28%)
• Pneumothorax developed in:• PIP > 25 cm H2O: 7 of 16 cats • PIP < 25 cm H2O: 8 of 20 cats • No statistical significance
Pneumothorax in ventilated animals: What do our studies show?
Hopper et al. JAVMA 2007• Pneumothorax developed during PPV in 10/148 animals (7%)
• No variables tested were associated with development of pneumothorax
Rutter et al. JVECC 2011Dogs with LMN disease• Pneumothorax in 10/14 dogs
Hoareau et al. JVECC 2011Brachycephalics• Pneumothorax in 0/15 dogs
More problems with PPV
• High FiO2 values may exacerbate inflammation and oxidative injury
• Placement of an endotracheal or tracheostomy tube bypasses host defenses in already immunocompromized patients
• Hemodynamic compromise
Inflammation associated with PPV in diseased lungs
Pro-inflammatory cytokines produced as a result of:• over-distension• shear stress• infection• oxidative injury (high FiO2)
• Cause progression of lung disease• May be released into the circulation and contribute to or cause SIRS and multiple organ failure
What about ALI/ARDS? • Life-threatening complications of critical illness
• Inflammation and changes in the alveolar-capillary membrane lead to pulmonary edema → alveolar flooding with protein-rich fluid and loss of lung volume
• ALI: acute lung injury• ARDS: acute respiratory distress syndrome
• Diagnosed based on clinical signs and findings!
Diagnosing ALI/ARDS1. Acute onset (< 72 hours) of tachypnea and labored breathing2. Known risk factors3. Evidence of pulmonary capillary leak without increased
pulmonary capillary pressurea. Bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on radiographs or CTb. High protein fluid in conducting airways
4. Evidence of inefficient gas exchangea. P:F < 300 for ALI, < 200 for ARDSb. Increased A-a gradient
5. Evidence of diffuse pulmonary inflammation
