Análisis de efectividad de la ventilación de alta frecuencia oscilatoria en pacientes pediátricos con insuficiencia respiratoria aguda en un centro de alta complejidad
Abstract:Arch Argent Pediatr 2012;110(3):214-220 / 214 RESUMEN Introducción. La ventilación de alta frecuencia oscilatoria (VAFO) es un recurso terapéuti-co ante la hipoxemia refractaria a la asistencia respiratoria mecánica convencional (ARMc), y en el tratamiento del síndrome de escape aéreo. Un metaanálisis reciente concluyó que la VAFO parece disminuir la mortalidad en niños posneonatales y adultos. En este contexto, es importante la evaluación de los resultados en el uso rutinario de esta tecnología. Objetivos. Pr… Show more
“…The mortality observed in our study is similar to that reported internationally ; however, other studies have reported an improved oxygenation but not mortality improvement. In our study, a significantly better survival was obtained with the combined treatment of the surfactant and recruitment manoeuvres than the survival observed in the control group.…”
The combined treatment of surfactant administration and ARM resulted in a better oxygenation and survival in children with ARDS than when only recruitment was used.
