Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
(CPAP) and Work of Breathing
Baldvin Joacutensson MD PhD
Karolinska Institutet and University Hospital Stockholm Sweden
Static pressure-volume curves of lung (PL) Chest wall (PW)
and total respiratory system Arrows indicate static forces
Chest wall recoil is outward and lung recoil is inward
Pulmonary physiology
Lung volume is related to transpulmonary pressure
Transpulmonary pressure = alveolar pressure - pleural pressure
Compliance is mL)cm H2O
Work of breathing = integral of pressure applied and resulting volume change (W = P dVminkg)
Preterm breathing strategy is directed
toward control of absolute lung volume
High respiratory rate to achieve auto end-expiratory-pressure
Active expiration against laryngeal narrowing
Tonic activity of diaphragm and intercostal muscles
Respiratory fatique in newborns
Diaphragmatic muscle fatique demonstarted in newborns on
CPAP and mechanical ventilation (Miller et al J Appl Physiol 1979)
Controversy exists about the relative importance of central or
peripheral mechanisms that contribute to fatique (Roussos and
Zakyntos Intensive Care Med 1996)
Hypoxia accentuates fatique during loaded breathing in an
animal model (Radell P et al J Appl Physiol 2000)

The Perfect CPAP
Should keep airway pressure as constant as possible to reduce
WOB
any deviations in pressure add to WOB done by the patient
FRC should rise proportionately to the increase in level of CPAP
This requirement means that the device must have highly variable
flow characteristics to be able to
accelerate flow on inspiration without time lag
on expiration pressures should not overshoot thus maintaining a low
WOB
Differences in failure rates between studies can possibly be
attributable to the performance of the devices used (dePaoli 2003)

Should keep airway pressure as constant as possible to reduce
WOB
any deviations in pressure add to WOB done by the patient
FRC should rise proportionately to the increase in level of CPAP
This requirement means that the device must have highly variable
flow characteristics to be able to
accelerate flow on inspiration without time lag
on expiration pressures should not overshoot thus maintaining a low
WOB
Differences in failure rates between studies can possibly be
attributable to the performance of the devices used (dePaoli 2003)
