Objective: High frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) is used in acute respiratory failure, but is poorly described in pediatrics. We aimed to describe the clinical characteristics, ventilator settings, and outcomes of a large pediatric cohort, and to determine predictors of who would benefit from HFPV.

Hypothesis: Gas exchange 2 h after HFPV initiation predicts success.

Design: Single center retrospective cohort study testing association between gas exchange 2 h after HFPV initiation with success, defined a priori.

Patients: Intubated children on HFPV for ≥2 h from 2012 to 2018.

Methods: We described indications, ventilator settings, and gas exchange immediately before, 2 h after, and at termination of HFPV. Univariate and multivariate regression tested association of oxygenation and ventilation after HFPV initiation with success. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve and adjusted odds ratios (aORs) were computed.

Results: We performed 237 courses of HFPV in 193 children (22% non-survivors), of which 162 (68%) were successful. In univariate analysis, pH (AUROC, 0.65) and PCO (AUROC, 0.66) 2 h after HFPV predicted success. In multivariate analysis, pH (aOR: 1.67 per 1 SD; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.19-2.35), PCO (aOR: 0.49 per 1 SD; 95% CI: 0.31-0.79), and oxygenation index (aOR: 0.66 per 1 SD; 95% CI: 0.44-0.97) 2 h after HFPV initiation were associated with success.

Conclusion: We describe the largest cohort of HFPV to date, with detailed description of indications and settings. Gas exchange after 2 h of HFPV was independently associated with success.

High-frequency percussive ventilation in acute respiratory failure.

Introduction: High-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) is a ventilation mode characterised by high-frequency breaths. This study investigated the impact of HFPV on gas exchange and clinical outcomes in acute respiratory failure (ARF) patients during spontaneous breathing, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) and invasive mechanical ventilation (iMV).

Methods: This systematic review included randomised and nonrandomised studies up to August 2023.

High-Frequency Percussive Ventilation: A Promising Rescue Strategy in Severe Lung Disease of Extremely Low Gestational Age Neonates.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) as a potential rescue treatment for extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGANs) suffering from severe lung disease.
  • It involved a retrospective review of 16 ELGANs (average gestational age of 25 weeks and birth weight of 640 grams) who had not improved after other ventilation methods, with a noted 31% mortality rate.
  • Results showed that survivors on HFPV experienced significant improvements in respiratory severity scores and oxygenation levels, indicating that HFPV could be beneficial for ELGANs with severe lung issues, especially those facing oxygenation challenges.

Abdominal inflation with CO is used to facilitate laparoscopic surgeries, however, providing adequate mechanical ventilation in this scenario is of major importance during anesthesia management. We characterized high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) in protecting from the gas exchange and respiratory mechanical impairments during capnoperitoneum. In addition, we aimed to assess the difference between conventional pressure-controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) and HFPV modalities generating the high-frequency signal intratracheally (HFPVi) or extrathoracally (HFPVe).

Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for respiratory failure refractory to high frequency percussive ventilation.

Background: High frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) has demonstrated improvements in gas exchange, but not in clinical outcomes.

Objectives: We utilize HFPV in patients failing conventional ventilation (CV), with rescue venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) reserved for failure of HFPV, and we describe our experience with such a strategy.

Methods: All adult patients (age >18 years) placed on HFPV for failure of CV at a single institution over a 10-year period were included.

Background: Cerebral oxygen delivery (cDO) is low during chest compressions (CC). We hypothesized that gas exchange and cDO are better with continuous CC with high frequency percussive ventilation (CCC + HFPV) compared to conventional 3:1 compressions-to-ventilation (C:V) resuscitation during neonatal resuscitation in preterm lambs with cardiac arrest induced by umbilical cord compression.

Methods: Fourteen lambs in cardiac arrest were randomized to 3:1 C:V resuscitation (90CC + 30 breaths/min) per the Neonatal Resuscitation Program guidelines or CCC + HFPV (120CC + HFPV continuously).
