PG - 1131-1138 LID - 10.1002/ppul.24724 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Pressure rise time (PRT), also known as slope time to the peak inflating pressure can be set on some modern neonatal ventilators. On other ventilators, PRT is determined by the set circuit flow. Changing slope time can affect mean airway pressure (MAP), oxygenation, and carbon dioxide elimination. Our aim was to investigate the effect of PRT on ventilator parameters and gas exchange during volume-guaranteed ventilation. METHODS: In a crossover study, 12 infants weighing greater than 2 kg were ventilated using a Drager Babylog VN500 ventilator with synchronized intermittent positive pressure ventilation with volume guarantee (SIPPV-VG) and pressure support ventilation with volume guarantee (PSV-VG). During both modes PRTs between 0.08 and 0.40 seconds were used in 15-minute epochs. Data from the ventilator and patient monitors were downloaded with 1- and 100-Hz sampling rate and analyzed using the Python computer language. RESULTS: During PSV-VG, longer PRTs were associated with longer inspiratory time (P < .0001) and with lower peak inflating pressure (PIP; P = .003), but the MAP was similar. During SIPPV-VG the PIP was not significantly different; however, MAP was lower with longer PRT (P = .001). With a short PRT (0.08 seconds), the PIP was higher during PSV-VG than during SIPPV-VG (19.8 vs 16.5 mbar; P = .042). There were no significant differences in tidal volume delivery, respiratory rate, minute volume, oxygen saturations, or end-tidal CO(2) with different PRTs in either mode. CONCLUSIONS: During SIPPV-VG or PSV-VG, using short or long PRTs affects some ventilation parameters but does not significantly change oxygenation or carbon dioxide elimination.
