Cuff is partially deflated. Mobilizes secretions just like HFOV and HFOV oscillatory 1 HZ=60 breaths per minute 4-6 Hz is the normal range in adults, 10 to 15 in children Bias flow-continuous flow rate of humidiifed oxygen through circuit Paw Driving Pressure (Delta P) I-time Oscillatory Frequency FiO2 Reduce Paw only if chest xray shows diaphragm at level of 8th or 9th ribs High delta p is equivalent to greater tidal volumes initally set it to achieve wiggle down to the groin I time is eventually set at 33% to allow 1:2 I:E Increase freqeuncy when CO2 is low and decrease when it is high. Adjusted only when changing delta P has failed Consider HFOV when mPaw is &gt;24 on conventional ventilatory strategies and fio2&gt;60% generally will have already failed high peep strategies prior to intiating hfove, patient must be well suctioned with a patent airway as the fewer disconnects for suctioning after intiation the better. Generally inline suction is not used with HFOV because the bend in the circuit and additional deadspace reduces the efficacy of the technique consider performing bronch prior to intiating HFOV to check the tube for biofilm and\/or clots may have hypotension transiently after intiation of HFOV Some clinicians will start on a higher Paw (40 cmH20) as an alveolar recruiting technique sometimes it may take hours to see the improvement in oxygenation as alveoli are slowly recruited. It may be necessary to increase the bias flow in order to get Paw in patients with large airleaks or bronchopleural fistulas Ventilation Decrease the freqency and increase the delta p ino order to blow off CO2 do the opposite if CO2 is low If necessary, you can disconnect the aptient from the HFOV vent and vigorously ventilate with a PEEP valve equipped BVM. Deliberatey induced cuff leak may actually benefit ventialtion Acts like tracheal insufflation of gas, washes out dead space allowing gradient Withdraw air from the cuff sufficent to lower Paw by 5 cmH2o then readjust the Paw to its previous value Positioning if possible, put head of the bed at 30 Complications Hypotension Relative hypovolemia may be present even at seemingly high CVP\/PAWP. If the PAWP goes up by 5 with no change, add pressors Pneumothorax you cna not hear breath sounds while the patient is on HFOV Loss of chest wiggle unilaterally si probably one of the best indicationsHFOV actually provides good support for patients with pneumothorax Weaning Reduce fio2 to 40% as first maneuver. then little by little, reduce the Paw Once at 20-24 mPaw, a trial of conventional ventilation can be attempted.
