ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of time-worn ritual endotracheal suction (TRES) and on-demand invasive airway suction (OIAS) for patients.MethodsPubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EBSCO, CBM, CNKI, WanFang and VIP databases were searched for all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing TRES with OIAS for patients. The studies were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The articles were assessed and data were extracted from them. The RevMan 5.3 software was used to analyze the data.ResultsSeventeen randomized controlled trials were included finally, and 2 029 patients were included, involving 1 028 patients in the control group and 1 001 patients in the experimental group. The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with TRES, OIAS could reduce the damage to the airway mucosa injury (RR=0.18, 95%CI 0.13 - 0.26, P<0.000 01), reduce secondary respiratory infections (RR=0.44, 95%CI 0.30 - 0.65, P<0.000 1), decrease the occurrence of phlegm blockade (RR=0.20, 95%CI 0.13 - 0.33, P<0.000 01), shorten the hospital stay (MD=5.03, 5%CI 3.17 - 6.89, P<0.000 01), but not influence the drop in oxygen saturation and the drop in blood oxygen pressure (RR=0.50, 95%CI 0.21 - 1.17, P=0.11). However there was no significant difference in mortality between two groups (P=0.46).ConclusionOIAS is preferred for patients who need suction than TRES.
【摘要】 目的 探討密閉式吸痰和開放式吸痰兩種方式對預防心胸外科術后機械通氣患者呼吸道感染的效果。 方法 2009年9月－2010年8月，將86例心胸外科術后機械通氣患者隨機分為兩組，試驗組應用密閉式吸痰法，對照組采用開放式吸痰法。觀察兩組患者術后機械通氣治療即刻及至拔出氣管插管后48 h內每日痰培養結果、每4小時監測一次體溫、血常規檢查及胸片結果、呼吸機相關性肺炎（ventilator associated pneumonia，VAP）發生情況。 結果 兩組患者在年齡、性別、病種方面差異均無統計學意義（Pgt;0.05），但痰培養結果陽性率、VAP發生率差異均有統計學意義（Plt;0.05）。兩組發生VAP患者的痰培養病原菌檢出情況:試驗組均為G-菌；對照組以G-菌為主，余者為真菌-白色念珠菌。 結論 密閉式吸痰法預防心胸外科術后機械通氣患者呼吸道感染效果較開放式吸痰法好。G-菌和真菌-白色念珠菌耐藥性強，治療難度大，臨床中應重視呼吸道感染的預防。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the effects of closed endotracheal suctioning (CS) and open endotracheal suctioning (OS) on the prevention of respiratory tract infection in mechanically ventilated patients after cardiac surgery. Methods From September 2009 to August 2010, 86 mechanically ventilated patients after cardiac surgery were randomly divided into two groups. CS and OS were provided for patients in the experimental group and the control group, respectively. The sputum culture result, body temperature every four hours, blood routine examination and chest X-ray result, and the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) were observed and compared between the two groups at the admission to the ICU and once a day thereafter. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups in sex, age, or kinds of diseases (Pgt;0.05). There were significant differences between the two groups in the positive rate of sputum culture results and the incidence of VAP (Plt;0.05). The pathogens isolation in sputum culture of VAP patients were all Gram-negative bacteria in the experimental group, and mainly Gram-negative bacteria followed by fungi-Blastomyces albicans in the control group. Conclusions CS is more effective than OS in the prevention of respiratory tract infection in mechanically ventilated patients after cardiac surgery. The drug resistance of Gram-negative bacteria and fungi-Blastomyces albicans is b, and the treatments of those bacteria are difficult. Thereafter, we should pay more attention to the prevention of respiratory tract infection.
Objective To determine the effect of closed tracheal suction system versus open tracheal suction system on the rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia in adults. Methods We searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 1, 2007), PubMed (1966 to 2006) and CBM (1980 to 2007), and also hand searched relevant journals. Randomized controlled trials involving closed tracheal suction system versus open tracheal suction system for ventilator-associated pneumonia in adults were included. Data were extracted and the quality of trials was critical assessed by two reviewers independently. The Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 4.2.8 software was used for data analyses. Result Five randomized controlled trials involving 739 patients were included. Results of meta-analyses showed that compared to open tracheal suction system, closed tracheal suction system did not increase the rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia (RR 0.83, 95%CI 0.50 to 1.37) or case fatality (RR 1.05, 95%CI 0.85 to 1.31). No significant differences were observed between open tracheal suction system and closed tracheal suction system in the total number of bacteria (RR 0.83, 95%CI 0.50 to 1.37), the number of SPP colony (RR 2.87, 95%CI 0.94 to 8.74) and the number of PSE colony (RR 1.46, 95%CI 0.76 to 2.77). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the duration of ventilation and length of hospital stay. Conclusion Open or closed tracheal suction systems have similar effects on the rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia, case fatality, the number of SPP and PSE colonies, duration of ventilation and length of hospital stay. However, due to the differences in interventions and statistical power among studies included in this systematic review, further studies are needed to determine the effect of closed or open tracheal suction systems on these outcomes.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of closed and open tracheal suction system on the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia.MethodsThe Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data, Airiti Library, PubMed, CINAHL and Proquest databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on closed and open tracheal suction system on the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3 software.ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 1 187 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with open tracheal suction system, closed tracheal suction system was associated with a reduced incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (RR=0.55, 95%CI 0.44 to 0.67, P<0.000 01), late-onset ventilator-associated pneumonia (RR=0.47, 95%CI 0.28 to 0.80, P=0.005), length of stay in intensive care unit (MD=?0.85, 95%CI ?1.66 to ?0.04, P=0.04) and rate of microbial colonization (RR=0.69, 95%CI 0.56 to 0.86, P=0.000 9). However, there were no significant differences between two groups in time to ventilator-associated pneumonia development (MD=0.96, 95%CI ?0.21 to 2.12, P=0.11), length of mechanical ventilation (MD=?2.24, 95%CI ?4.54 to 0.06, P=0.06), and rate of mortality (RR=0.88, 95%CI 0.73 to 1.05, P=0.15).ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that compared with open tracheal suction system, closed tracheal suction system can reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and late-onset ventilator-associated pneumonia, shorten the hospital stay in intensive care unit, and reduce rate of microbial colonization. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
