Background: High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) has not been shown to be beneficial in the management of moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). There is uncertainty about the actual pressure applied into the lung during HFOV. We therefore performed a study to compare the transpulmonary pressure (PL) during conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) and different levels of mean airway pressure (mPaw) during HFOV.Methods: This is a prospective randomized crossover study in a university teaching hospital. An esophageal balloon catheter was used to measure esophageal pressures (Pes) at end inspiration and end expiration and to calculate P-L. Measurements were taken during ventilation with CMV (CMVpre) after which patients were switched to HFOV with three 1-h different levels of mPaw set at +5, +10 and +15 cm H2O above the mean airway pressure measured during CMV. Patients were thereafter switched back to CMV (CMVpost).Results: Ten patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS were included. We demonstrated a linear increase in Pes and P-L with the increase in mPaw during HFOV. Contrary to CMV, P-L was always positive during HFOV whatever the level of mPaw applied but not associated with improvement in oxygenation. We found significant correlations between mPaw and Pes.Conclusion: HFOV with high level of mPaw increases transpulmonary pressures without improvement in oxygenation.
