Benefits and risks of manual hyperinflation in intubated and mechanically ventilated intensive care unit patients: a systematic review

Abstract: IntroductionManual hyperinflation (MH), a frequently applied maneuver in critically ill intubated and mechanically ventilated patients, is suggested to mimic a cough so that airway secretions are mobilized toward the larger airways, where they can easily be removed. As such, MH could prevent plugging of the airways.MethodsWe performed a search in the databases of Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library from January 1990 to April 2012. We systematically reviewed the literature on evidence for postulated benef… Show more

“…This agrees with a recent bench study that achieved similar expiratory flow bias thresholds with 2 s of inspiratory time and ideally 3 s of inspiratory time using pressure-controlled ventilator hyperinflation. 32 Although manual hyperinflation may be commonly delivered with short inspiratory times, 6,7,18 there may be additional factors that facilitate mucus movement under these conditions. It is likely that alterations in V T , 32 airway resistance and airway pressure, 17 manual hyperinflation circuit design, [23][24][25][26] and inclusion of an inspiratory hold 17 may also interact with the expiratory flow bias and alter whether the expiratory flow bias thresholds can be exceeded.…”

“…5 The existing evidence for manual hyperinflation demonstrates only some shortterm improvements in lung function without any benefits in major patient outcomes, 6 and this may account for its limited practice in other regions. 7 There is also the potential for harm with circuit disconnection (loss of PEEP), the tidal volume (V T ) values and airway pressures generated, and the potential impact on cardiac output and blood pres-sure.…”

“…Study outcomes range from improving arterial oxygenation, to no effect, to decreases in cardiac output and blood pressure. 19,25 A thorough and focused systematic review regarding alveolar recruitment maneuvers is necessary to delineate their usefulness in improving patient outcomes both during and after general anesthesia.…”
