  • 목 적 : 최근 신생아학의 발달과 신생아 집중 치료의 발달로 기관내 삽관 후 인공 환기요법 치료가 빈번하게 이루어져 호흡곤란증이 있는 신생아의 사망률은 감소된 반면 이에 따른 여러 합병증이 병발할 가능성이 높아지게 되었다. 이에 저자들은 인공 환기요법을 사용한 신생아에서 VAP의 발생빈도와 위험요인 및 주된 균주에 대해 알아보았다. 방 법 : 2000년 1월 1일부터 2003년 6월 30일까지 한림대학교 강남성심병원 신생아 집중치료실에 입원하여 인공 환기요법을 사용한 신생아 50명을 대상으로 하여 입원 기록지를 후향적으로 분석하였다. VAP의 진단은 기관내 삽관 당시에는 폐렴이 보이지 않으나 기관내 삽관 후 최소 48시간 경과 후 흉부 방사선상 새롭게 침윤이 발생한 경우로 정의하였다. 상기 조건에 만족하는 환아 13명을 VAP군으로, 만족하지 않는 환아 37명을 대조군으로 분류하였다. 결 과 : 인공 환기요법을 사용했던 환아 50명 중 VAP의 발생빈도는 26.0%(13명)였다. 동맥관 개존증과 뇌실내 출혈이 VAP 발생과 연관이 있었고 재태연령, 출생체중, 1분 및 5분 Apgar 점수 및 호흡곤란 증후군, 기관지폐 이형성증, 미숙아 망막증, 패혈증, 급성 신부전, 폐출혈, 공기 누출 증후군 등과는 연관이 없었다. 본 연구에서는 총 12균주가 동정되었는데 MR-CNS 4례(33.3%), E. cloacae 3례(25.0%), P. aeruginosa 2례(16.7%), MRSA 1례(8.3%), Acinetobacter baumanii 1례(8.3%), K. pneumoniae 1례(8.3%)로 MR-CNS가 가장 많았다. 결 론 : 본원 신생아 집중치료실에서 인공 환기요법 치료 후 발생한 폐렴의 빈도는 26.0%이며 MR-CNS가 가장 많이 배양되였다. 기관삽관 말단의 배양은 VAP의 정확한 진단을 위해서는 적절치 않을 수 있으나 신생아에게 필요한 침습적이지 않고 정확한 방법에 대한 연구가 필요하다고 생각된다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a closed endotracheal suction system(CES) on oxygen saturation, ventilator associated pneumonia(VAP), and nursing efficacy in mechanically ventilated patients. Method: This study was conducted in the intensive care unit of a University Hospital in Gwangju City. Data was collected from July to October, 2003. Seventy mechanically ventilated patients were randomly divided into two groups; 32 for CES and 38 for open endotracheal suction system(OES) protocol. Twenty one nurses were also involved to examine the nurses' attitude of usefulness about CES. Result: $SaO_2$ was significantly different between CES and OES. The incidence of VAP in CES was lower than that of OES. Nursing efficacy was related to time, cost, and usefulness of the suction system. Time of suctioning in CES was shorter than that of OES. CES also contributed significantly to lower the cost of treatment than OES. The usefulness score of CES increased after 6 months of use. Conclusion: CES prevented VAP, was cost effective, and a safe suctioning system. CES can be used with patients with sensitivity to hypoxygenation and with a high risk of VAP.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of tooth-brushing oral care on oral health and ventilator-associated pneumonia of patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods: A total of 74 participants were recruited from a medical, surgical, or neurosurgical ICU at S Hospital in Seoul, Korea, from September of 2010 to January of 2011. An experimental group (n= 36) received oral care with tooth-brushing while a control group (n=38) received oral care with cotton ball and gauze. In both group, the oral care was done three times a day at least one minute for 7 days. Oral health was examined by the Modified Oral Assessment Guide before the intervention and each night. Results: There is no difference between the groups in aspect of passage of time (p = .603), interaction between time and intervention (p =.300), the performance intervention (p = .766), and the incidence of VAP (p = .486). Conclusion: The effect of oral care with tooth-brushing on oral health and VAP was not different from that of usual oral care in ICU. However, further study is necessary due to high attrition in this study.

  • 연구배경: 폐쇄관을 이용한 기관내 흡인은 임상적으로 중한 환자에게 생리적인 이점이 있지만, 병원성 균주에 의한 기관지 내의 집락화가 증가될 수 있다는 보고가 있다. 비용증가는 폐쇄흡인의 또 다른 제한점이다. 본 연구는 폐쇄흡 인 및 개방흡인에 따른 병원균주의 집락화와 인공환기관련폐렴의 빈도와 가격효율성을 비교해보고자 시행되었다. 방 법: 각각 한 달의 간격을 사이에 두고 내과계 중환자실에 입원한 환자들을 대상으로 다중사용 개방흡인, 단일사용 개방흡인, 다중사용 폐쇄흡인을 순차적으로 시행하였다. 비용, MRSA의 기관지내 집락화, 인공환기폐렴의 발생 률을 분석하였다. 결 과: 106명의 환자가 연구 대상으로 포함이 되었고, 이 중 20명의 환자가 다중사용 개방흡인을, 42명이 단일사용 개방흡인을, 44명이 다중사용 폐쇄흡인술을 시행받았다. MRSA의 집락화와 인공환기관련폐렴의 빈도는 세 군간에 의미있는 차이를 보이지 않았다. 입원 일당 소모되는 비용은 다중사용 개방흡인이 $10.58, 단일사용 개방흡인이 $28.27, 다중사용 폐쇄흡인의 경우 $23.76인 것으로 나타났다. 결 론: 다중사용 폐쇄흡인을 매 48시간마다 교환하는 경우 MRSA 집락화와 인공환기폐렴 발생 빈도는 비슷하였고, 기관내 흡인술에 있어서 비용면에서도 효율적인 방법임을 알 수 있었다.

  • 목적: 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴은 중증 소아 환자에게 있어서 심각한 위협이 될 수 있다. 소아 환자에서 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia에 의한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구는 소아 중환자에서 S. maltophilia에 의한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴의 임상적 특성을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 2008년 1월 1일부터 2012년 12월 31일까지 삼성서울병원 소아중환자실에 입원한 S. maltophilia로 인한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴에 걸린 18세 이하 소아들의 의무 기록을 기초로 한 후향적 연구를 시행하였다. 결과: S. maltophilia로 인한 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴으로 진단 받은 총 31명의 환자가 연구 대상에 포함되었다. 연령 중앙값은 8개월(범위, 0.5개월-16.6세)이고, 남자는 13명(40.6%)이었다. 환자들의 만성질환 분포는 심혈관질환(n=11, 34.4%), 혈액종양질환(n=7, 25.0%), 신경질환(n=4, 12.5%), 호흡기질환(n=3, 9.4%) 그리고 기타(n=4, 12.5%)이었다. 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴을 진단하기 전 인공 환기요법을 하였던 기간의 중앙값은 14일(범위, 4-256일)이었다. S. maltophilia 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴후 30일 이내 사망률은 12.5% (4/32) 이었다. 결론: S. maltophilia는 중증 소아 환자에서 인공 환기요법 관련 폐렴의 원인균으로 반드시 고려되어야 할 대상이다. 경험적 광범위 베타-락탐 항생제를 사용하고 있음에도 불구하고 환자 상태가 나빠지고 있다면, 항생제 선택에서 S. maltophila의 감염을 고려해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) requires prompt and appropriate treatment. Since methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a frequent pathogen in VAP, rapid identification of it, is pivotal. Our aim was to evaluate the utility of quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) as a useful method for etiologic diagnoses of MRSA pneumonia. Methods: We performed qPCR for mecA, S. aureus-specific femA-SA, and S. epidermidis-specific femA-SE genes from bronchoalveolar lavage or bronchial washing samples obtained from clinically-suspected VAP. Molecular identification of MRSA was based on the presence of the mecA and femA-SA gene, with the absence of the femA-SE gene. To compensate for the experimental and clinical conditions, we spiked an internal control in the course of DNA extraction. We estimated number of colony-forming units per mL (CFU/mL) of MRSA samples through a standard curve of a serially-diluted reference MRSA strain. We compared the threshold cycle (Ct) value with the microbiologic results of MRSA. Results: We obtained the mecA gene standard curve, which showed the detection limit of the mecA gene to be 100 fg, which corresponds to a copy number of 30. We chose cut-off Ct values of 27.94 (equivalent to $1{\times}10^4$ CFU/mL) and 21.78 (equivalent to $1{\times}10^5$ CFU/mL). The sensitivity and specificity of our assay were 88.9% and 88.9% respectively, when compared with quantitative cultures. Conclusion: Our results were valuable for diagnosing and identifying pathogens involved in VAP. We believe our modified qPCR is an appropriate tool for the rapid diagnosis of clinical pathogens regarding patients in the intensive care unit.

  • Background: To date, there are few data on the risk factors for severe cases and deaths associated with the 2009 pandemic H1N1 influenza A. Here, we describe the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of patients hospitalized for pneumonia and identify those factors associated with the development of major complications (MC). Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 41 cases of pneumonia admitted to a university-affiliated tertiary hospital between Aug 26 and Dec 10, 2009, and who had confirmed H1N1 influenza A based on real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction assay. There were 7,962 patients that fit these criteria. We compared the clinical features and demographic characteristics of patients who developed MC to with those who did not develop MC. Results: During the study period, 10 patients developed MC (required admission to the intensive care unit, n=10; required ventilator therapy, n=6; death, n=4). Patients with MC were significantly older than those without MC and more frequently had underlying medical conditions (90.0% vs 41.9%, p-value <0.01). In the patients with developed MC, the median $PaO_2/FiO_2$ ratio of 230.0 (145.0~347.3) at admission and pneumonia severity index (PSI) score of 141.5 (88.3~158.5) were higher than patients without MC. However, no differences were observed in laboratory findings or in viral shedding between the 2 groups. Conclusion: In hospitalized pneumonia patients of 2009 H1N1 influenza, old age, a history of malignancy, initial hypoxemia, $PaO_2/FiO_2$ ratio, and PSI score appear to be risk factor significantly related to developing MC. These findings might be the basis to influence strategies for admitting patients to an intensive or intermediate care unit and for pre-emptive antiviral therapy.

  • Objective: Lung segmentation using volumetric quantitative computed tomography (CT) analysis may help predict outcomes of patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between CT volumetric quantitative analysis and prognosis in patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods: CT images from patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from February 18 to April 15, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. CT with a negative finding, failure of quantitative analysis, or poor image quality was excluded. CT volumetric quantitative analysis was performed by automated volumetric methods. Patients were stratified into two risk groups according to CURB-65: mild (score of 0-1) and severe (2-5) pneumonia. Outcomes were evaluated according to the critical event-free survival (CEFS). The critical events were defined as mechanical ventilator care, ICU admission, or death. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between the variables and prognosis. Results: Eighty-two patients (mean age, 63.1 ± 14.5 years; 42 females) were included. In the total cohort, male sex (hazard ratio [HR], 9.264; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.021-42.457; p = 0.004), C-reactive protein (CRP) (HR, 1.080 per mg/dL; 95% CI, 1.010-1.156; p = 0.025), and COVID-affected lung proportion (CALP) (HR, 1.067 per percentage; 95% CI, 1.033-1.101; p < 0.001) were significantly associated with CEFS. CRP (HR, 1.164 per mg/dL; 95% CI, 1.006-1.347; p = 0.041) was independently associated with CEFS in the mild pneumonia group (n = 54). Normally aerated lung proportion (NALP) (HR, 0.872 per percentage; 95% CI, 0.794-0.957; p = 0.004) and NALP volume (NALPV) (HR, 1.002 per mL; 95% CI, 1.000-1.004; p = 0.019) were associated with a lower risk of critical events in the severe pneumonia group (n = 28). Conclusion: CRP in the mild pneumonia group; NALP and NALPV in the severe pneumonia group; and sex, CRP, and CALP in the total cohort were independently associated with CEFS in patients with COVID-19.

  • Purpose: Chest injuries in multiple trauma patients are major predisposing factor for increased length of stay in intensive care unit, prolonged mechanical ventilator, and respiratory complications such as pneumonia. The aim of this study is the evaluation of lung injury score as a risk factor for prolonged management in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: Between June to August in 2011, 46 patients admitted to shock and trauma center in our hospital and 24 patients had associated chest damage without traumatic brain injury. Retrospectively, we calculated injury severity score (ISS), lung injury score, and the number of fractured ribs and performed nonparametric correlation analysis with length of stay in ICU and mechanical ventilator support. Results: Calculated lung injury score(<48 hours) was median 1(0-3) and ISS was median 30(8-38) in study population. They had median 2(0-14) fractured ribs. There were 2 bilateral fractures and 2 flail chest. Ventilator support was needed in 11(45.8%) of them for median 39 hours(6-166). The ISS of ventilator support group was median 34(24-34) and lung injury score was median 1.7(1.3-2.5). Tracheostomy was performed in one patient and it was only complicated case and ICU stay days was median 9(4-16). In correlation analysis, Lung injury score and ISS were significant with the length of stay in ICU but the number of fractured ribs and lung injury score were predicting factors for prolonged mechanical ventilator support. Conclusion: Lung injury score could be a possible prognostic factor for the prediction of increased length of stay in ICU and need for mechanical ventilator support.
