Abstract

BACKGROUND: Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) reduces intubation and mortality in patients with COPD exacerbation who present with respiratory failure, and the type of mask may affect its success. Our objective was to compare the performance of 3 different NIV masks in a lung model.

METHODS: We set the lung simulator mechanics and respiratory rate, and tested a small oronasal mask, a total face mask, and a large oronasal mask. We added CO2 at a constant rate into the system and monitored the end-tidal carbon dioxide. We used a mechanical ventilator to deliver NIV in 8 different combinations of inspiratory effort, pressure support, and expiratory positive airway pressure. We measured end-tidal carbon dioxide mask leakage, tidal volume, trigger time, time to achieve 90% of the inspiratory target during inspiration, and excess inspiratory time.

RESULTS: We presented the mean ± SD of the 8 simulated conditions for each mask. The mean ± SD leakage was higher for the total face mask (51 ± 6 L/min) than for the small oronasal mask (37 ± 5 L/min) and for the large oronasal mask (21 ± 3 L/min), P < .001; but end-tidal carbon dioxide and tidal volume were similar. The mean ± SD 90% of the inspiratory target during inspiration was faster for the small oronasal mask (585 ± 49 ms) compared with the large oronasal (647 ± 107 ms) and total face mask (851 ± 105 ms), P < .001, all other variables were similar.

CONCLUSIONS: In this model, we found that the type of mask had no impact on CO2 washout or on most synchrony variables.

Introduction

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) decreases endotracheal intubation rates, length of hospital stay, mechanical ventilation complications, and mortality for specific populations, particularly in COPD.1,2 Recent clinical practice guidelines recommend NIV as first-line ventilatory support to treat acute respiratory failure (ARF) in COPD,3–5 and its use has increased 462% in the United States from 1998 to 2008.6 Unfortunately, treatment intolerance causes 50–100% of NIV complications, can compromise the efficacy of NIV,7 and is associated with worse clinical outcomes.6 NIV failure can be related to the type and severity of respiratory failure, timing of NIV application in the course of the disease, patient factors, and the type of mask used.8 The mask used to deliver NIV can result in variable rates of air leaks,9,10 CO2 rebreathing, tidal volume (VT), and patient-ventilator synchrony, all of which can increase the work of breathing and lead to progressive respiratory failure.11–13

Historically, masks that cover the mouth, nose, or both have been used to treat ARF,9,14 until masks that cover larger surfaces of the face were available, with similar efficiency and more comfort.15,16 These larger-volume total face masks reduce the respiratory rate,17 use of accessory muscles, and PCO214,17 when compared with oronasal masks, without clear superiority in terms of clinical outcomes.14,17–19 However, clinical studies14,16–19 that compared NIV masks used different methods and outcomes, baring unmeasurable subjective factors related to patients and staff. Moreover, there is no consensus regarding an NIV mask choice in the ARF secondary to COPD exacerbations. Our aim was to compare air leaks, CO2 washout, and patient-ventilator synchrony across 3 different masks during NIV by using a lung model of hypercapnic exacerbation of COPD.

QUICK LOOK

Current knowledge

Noninvasive ventilation is the mainstay treatment for acute respiratory failure in COPD, and the type of mask used may affect treatment efficacy. Many clinical factors, individual mask tolerance, and team expertise also influence noninvasive ventilation success. There are no guidelines on how to choose an adequate mask for treatment.

What this paper contributes to our knowledge

An experimental model eliminated subjective factors related to noninvasive ventilation tolerance. In this experimental lung model of COPD exacerbation, we found that the mask type did not affect tidal volume, end-tidal carbon dioxide, and most of the synchrony variables.

Methods

We conducted this study in the Mechanical Ventilation Laboratory in the Instituto do Coracao of the University of Sao Paulo Medical School, São Paulo, Brazil, after submission to the local research committee. We used a computerized lung simulator (ASL5000, Ingmar Medical, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania), which consisted of a piston moving inside a cylinder (Fig. 1). We set the model's compliance, resistance, and inspiratory muscle pressure.20–22 We simulated a COPD exacerbation by setting respiratory system compliance at 80 mL/cm H2O, inspiratory resistance at 10 cm H2O/L/s, and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) expiratory resistance at 20 cm H2O/L/s. The respiratory rate was 15 breaths/min, and inspiratory time was 0.80 s. We set inspiratory muscle pressure to −3 cm H2O or −5 cm H2O, and set expiratory muscle pressure to +2 cm H2O (Fig. 2).

Inspiratory muscle pressure (Pmus) over time. The Pmus waveform was created by using the computerized lung simulator and set to −5 cm H2O (as shown) or −3 cm H2O.

We connected the tested masks to a fiberglass mannequin head with endotracheal tubes directing the air flow from within the mouth and nose to the lung simulator. The masks were connected tightly to the mannequin's face by using the straps provided by the manufacturer to minimize leaks. We tested 3 models of masks: a small oronasal mask (Comfort Full, Philips, size L, internal volume 260 mL, Philips, Andover, Massachusetts), which covers the mouth and nose; a total face mask (Totalface, size S, internal volume 1,500 mL, Philips), which covers a larger surface of the face; and a large oronasal mask (Performax, size L, internal volume 550 mL, Philips) (Fig. 3).

To simulate hypercapnic respiratory failure, we added CO2 at 100% to the system with a flow regulator titrated to obtain a constant ETCO2 of 7 mm Hg measured by volumetric capnography (NICO2, Philips) at baseline without inspiratory support as described in other models.23 We connected a mechanical ventilator (Vision, Philips) with a single-limb circuit (Philips) to deliver NIV in spontaneous/timed mode with a backup respiratory rate of 4 breaths/min and inspiratory pressure above expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) of either 3 or 5 cm H2O and EPAP of either 5 or 8 cm H2O. To apply such pressures, the ventilator was set to deliver EPAP = 5 cm H2O and inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP) = 8 cm H2O (inspiratory pressure above EPAP of 3 cm H2O), EPAP = 5 cm H2O and IPAP = 10 cm H2O (inspiratory pressure above EPAP of 5 cm H2O), EPAP = 8 cm H2O and IPAP = 11 cm H2O (inspiratory pressure above EPAP of 3 cm H2O), or EPAP = 8 cm H2O and IPAP = 13 cm H2O (inspiratory pressure above EPAP of 5 cm H2O). We randomized the sequence of application of the 8 combinations of inspiratory pressure, EPAP, and inspiratory effort for each mask and waited at least 5 min for stabilization before recording 20 cycles of each of the 8 conditions.

We recorded the air-leak rate shown on the ventilator screen, and the ETCO2 was measured by the NICO2 monitor for each condition. The lung simulator recorded pressure, volume, and flow at 512 Hz, and provided breath-by-breath VT actually delivered to the model (not including the volume that leaked) and synchrony parameters (Fig. 4). To obtain the mean values for each condition and type of mask, we performed offline analysis of cycles with the lung simulator software (LabView, National Instruments, Austin, Texas) after removing cycles with artifacts. Values are expressed as mean ± SD. We used analysis of variance for repeated measures to compare the 3 types of masks and the Bonferroni test for post hoc comparisons. We used SPSS 13.0 (SPSS, Chicago, Illinois), and considered P values <.05 as statistically significant.

Results

Air leak was higher for the total face mask than for the small oronasal mask and large oronasal mask (Fig. 5). The ETCO2 was similar for the 3 masks (Fig. 6). VT and synchrony variables are presented in Table 1. The 3 masks yielded similar VT. The time to achieve 90% of the inspiratory target during inspiration was shorter in the small oronasal mask than in the large oronasal and total face masks. Triggering variables (trigger time, trigger pressure, baseline pressure during triggering) did not show statistical difference. We also did not observe differences among the types of mask and cycling performance, measured with delayed cycling.

VT and Synchrony Variables for the Three Types of Masks

Discussion

We analyzed objective parameters of NIV masks in a lung model that simulated ARF secondary to COPD exacerbation ventilated with 3 types of mask and 8 combinations of NIV settings. We found higher air leaks with the total face mask compared with the 2 other masks and no significant differences in VT and ETCO2. Inspiratory pressurization time, measured with the time to achieve 90% of the inspiratory target during inspiration, was significantly faster for the small oronasal mask compared with the total face mask and large oronasal mask, but all other synchrony variables were similar across the 3 types of masks.

Mask Selection

The use of the oronasal mask is recommended over nasal masks24 for patients who are critically ill and in ARF, but there are no recommendations for when to choose oronasal or total face masks. Results of a survey found that patient comfort, prevention of air leaks, and cost determines mask choice.9 Results of randomized controlled trials indicated similar tolerance to both oronasal and total face mask in ARF18,19 and specifically in ARF with hypercapnia.18 Results of a randomized controlled trial indicated improvement in tolerance to the oronasal mask after 24 h of use compared with the total face mask.18 The oronasal mask is the most widely used, and there is a suggested “rotating” strategy, which consists of switching the type of mask from time to time.8 It is unlikely that any one mask will prove to be optimum for all NIV applications25 but it is clear that patient compliance, and, therefore, NIV success, is greatly dependent on the type of mask.26,27

Air Leaks

We found that air leaks were associated with the internal volume and the surface of the mask. Other investigators used a pneumotachograph to measure pressure and flow in the circuit and mask to estimate air leaks and its compensation by the ventilator11 or to measure the pressure in the pneumatic cushion of the mask to optimize air leaks.28 However, in our study, air leaks were not associated with different VT or ETCO2. These findings were in line with a prospective randomized trial with 14 subjects in ARF due to exacerbation of COPD that compared a nasal mask and a oronasal mask, which found that neither dead space nor differences in air leaks affected PCO2.17 Air leaks are a characteristic feature of NIV, and ventilators are designed to compensate for this, but compensation of a high rate of air leaks does not avoid patient-ventilator asynchrony.29 Previous investigators have indicated that air leaks can extend trigger, decrease inspiratory pressurization, delay cycling,30 and induce autotriggering.29 We found an association between higher air leaks and slower inspiratory pressurization, but no association with triggering or cycling delays.

CO2 Washout

We found that ETCO2 was reduced from baseline for the 3 masks, as expected, without any significant differences between the masks. CO2 washout is one of the objectives of NIV in ARF due to COPD exacerbations.23 Some degree of rebreathing of CO2 is inevitable but excessive rebreathing may negatively impact NIV efficiency because ETCO2 increases of as little as 4 mm Hg can lead to air hunger and higher breathing frequencies.31 Our results contrasted with those of a clinical trial, which included 48 subjects with ARF and hypercapnia in which the oronasal mask led to greater PCO2 reduction than the total face mask.14 The disparity was probably related to the fact that we used an experimental model and that ETCO2 may underestimate PCO2.26

Synchrony

Patient-ventilator asynchrony can decrease NIV tolerance,9 contribute to NIV failure,32 and worsen clinical outcomes.33 Asynchrony indexes of >10% have been reported in as many as 43% of patients on NIV.12 COPD is a risk factor for asynchrony in particular because of the presence of auto-PEEP.12,27,34 We found that the time to achieve 90% of the inspiratory target during inspiration was faster for the oronasal mask, but all other patient-ventilator synchrony variables were comparable for the 3 masks. The mean trigger delay and cycling delay in ms were relatively short in our study, possibly because our model did not include hyperinflation and auto-PEEP.

Limitations

We had several limitations in this study. First, we used a lung simulator, which lost the biologic variability of respiratory rate and lung mechanics. The simulator also did not simulate ventilation-perfusion mismatches that typically occur in patients with COPD and that contributes to CO2 retention. However, using a lung simulator allows for an objective comparison of the masks under identical experimental conditions because the model does not move or worsen clinically; therefore, it offers a measure of objective performance of the masks under controlled conditions, which needs to be confirmed later in patients. Second, CO2 flow that mimics CO2 production was constant during the experiment as opposed to real-life situations. In addition, our measurement of air leaks relied on the ventilator's estimation and may not be accurate. To minimize this caveat, we connected all the masks very tightly to the fiberglass mannequin head to minimize leaks around the mask. Third, we could not evaluate dynamic changes in mask fitting because patients breath and move, which can be challenging in real-life patients. However, the absence of dynamic change in leak volume provides an objective measurement of the performance of the masks under each ventilatory condition. Fourth, we only tested 3 models of masks and 1 ventilator, whereas many more are available in clinical use, and, therefore, our results may not be generalizable in different conditions.

Conclusions

We found that, under controlled experimental conditions by using a lung simulator, the type of mask did not affect VT, ETCO2, and synchrony variables, and, therefore, it may not have a major impact on NIV success. Clinical studies that focus on monitoring patient's response and tolerance to different types of masks are needed to better describe the influence of the interface on NIV success and guide clinicians who care for patients who are critically ill.
