Permissive Hypercapnia in the Management of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia: Our Institutional Experience

Abstract: BACKGROUND Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a potentially lethal anomaly associated with pulmonary hypoplasia and persistent pulmonary hypertension. Permissive hypercapnia is a strategy designed to reduce lung injury from mechanical ventilation in infants. It has been shown to be a potentially superior method of ventilator management for patients with CDH. In 2001, the Divisions of Neonatology and Pediatric Surgery at the University of Virginia Children’s Hospital established permissive hypercapnia as … Show more

“…234,235 There have been no RCTs of permissive hypercapnia in infants with CDH, and RCTs of this strategy in premature infants have failed to show benefit in the reduction of chronic lung disease with the use of permissive hypercapnia. 236 Current recommendations to reduce ventilator-induced lung injury in CDH include limiting peak inspiratory pressures during conventional mechanical ventilation to ≤25 cm H 2 O, followed by treatment with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation if gas exchange is inadequate.…”

“…Permissive hypercapnia and ‘gentle ventilation' have been reported to increase survival in neonates with CDH [28,29]. A ventilation strategy aiming for preductal saturation between 80 and 95%, postductal saturation above 70% and arterial CO 2 levels between 50 and 70 mm Hg (6.9-9.3 kPa, permissive hypercapnia) is well accepted.…”

“…With widespread improvements in care based on lung preservation strategies[25], neonates with less severe CDH routinely survive in most centers, and newborns with more severe CDH survive at increasing rates at the best centers. Significant questions remain, however, about the viability and outcome potential of those most severely affected by the physiologic ravages of CDH[6,7].…”
