Chest physiotherapy in ICU
1.
2.
3. A treatment intervention employed for improving
pulmonary hygiene including positioning, chest
percussion, vibration and manual hyperinflation to
assist in mobilizing secretions in the lungs from the
peripheral airways into the more central airways so
that they can be expectorated or suctioned out.
4. ⢠Prophylactic
- Pre-operative high risk surgical patient
- Post-operative patient who is unable to
mobilize secretions
- Neurological patient who is unable to cough
effectively
- Patient receiving mechanical ventilation who has a
tendency to retain secretions
- Patients with pulmonary disease,
who needs to improve bronchial hygiene
5. âŚcont.
⢠Therapeutic
- Atelectasis due to secretions
- Retained secretions
- Abnormal breathing pattern due to primary or
secondary pulmonary dysfunction
- COPD and resultant decreased exercise
tolerance
- Musculoskeletal deformity that makes breathing
pattern and cough ineffective
13. ⢠Prevent accumulation of secretions
⢠Improve mobilization and drainage of secretions
⢠Promote relaxation to improve breathing patterns
14. ⢠Improves respiratory function
⢠Improve cardio-pulmonary exercise tolerance
⢠Teach bronchial hygiene programs to patients with chronic
respiratory dysfunction
âŚcont.
15. ⢠Untreated tension pneumothorax
⢠Abnormal coagulation profile
⢠Status epilepticus or status asthamaticus
⢠Immediately following intra cranial surgery
16. ⢠Head injury with raised ICP
⢠Osteoporotic bones
⢠Recent acute myocardial infarction, unstable vitals
⢠Immediately after tube feedings
⢠Sutures and ICDâs
âŚcont.
20. Physiological Effects of Positioning
⢠Optimizes oxygen transport by improving V/Q mismatch
⢠Increases lung volumes
⢠Reduces the work of breathing
⢠Minimizes the work of heart
⢠Enhances mucociliary clearance (postural drainage)
âŚcont.
21. ⢠A separate technique. Its just an example of positioning
which has the particular aim of clearing airway secretions
with the assistance of gravity.
âŚcont.
22.
23. ⢠Patients are positioned with the area to be drained the
upper most, but modifications should be done wherever
necessary.
⢠Drainage times vary, but ideally each position requires 10
minutes (gumery et al, 2001).
âŚcont.
24. ⢠Positioning restores ventilation to dependent lung regions
more effectively than PEEP or large tidal volumes (Froese &
Bryan, 1974).
⢠Positioning has a marked influence on gas exchange
because of unevenly damaged lungs (Tobin, 1994).
⢠Side lying reduces lung densities in the upper most lung
(Brismar, 1985).
âŚcont.
25. ⢠Right side lying may be more beneficial for cardiac output
than left side lying (Wong, 1998).
⢠Simply turning from supine to side lying can clear
atelectasis from dependent regions (Brismar, 1985).
⢠Positioning affects lung volume
⢠Lung volume is related to the position of the diaphragm
⢠FRC decreases from standing to slumped sitting to supine
(Macnaughton, 1995)
âŚcont.
26. ⢠Positioning affects compliance (Wahba et al found that
work of breathing is 40% higher in supine than in sitting)
⢠Positioning affects arterial oxygenation by improving V/Q
mismatch (V/Q is usually mismatched if the affected lung is
dependent- Gillespie et al)
⢠âBad lung upâ position
âŚcont.
30. Chest Clapping/Chest Percussion
⢠Percussion consists of rhythmic clapping on the chest with
loose wrist & cupped hand.
⢠Effect: Dislodges & loosens secretions from the lung
âŚcont.
31.
32. Chest Vibration
⢠Vibrations consists of a fine oscillation of the hands directed
inwards against the chest, performed on exhalation after
deep inhalation.
⢠Effects: Helpful in moving loosened mucous plugs towards
larger airway
âŚcont.
35. ⢠Was originally defined as inflating the lungs with oxygen and
manual compression to a tidal volume of 1 liter requiring a
peak inspiratory pressure of between 20 and 40 cm H2O (Med
j Aust, 1972).
⢠More recent definitions include providing a larger tidal
volume than base line tidal volume to the patient (Aust j
physiotherapy, 1996) and using a tidal volume which is 50%
greater than that delivered via the ventilator (chest, 1994).
âŚcont.
36. Indications
⢠To aid removal of secretions
⢠To aid reinflation of atelectatic segments
⢠To assess lung compliance
⢠To improve lung compliance
âŚcont.
37. Technique
⢠Slow deep inspiration
⢠Inspiratory hold (at full inspiration)
⢠Fast expiratory release
⢠Hand-held Pressure Support
âŚcont.
40. Contraindications
⢠Undrained Pnuemothorax
⢠Potential bronchospasm
⢠Severe bronchospasm
⢠Gross cardiovascular instability inducing arrhythmias and
hypovolaemia
⢠Unexplained Haemoptysis
⢠Patient on High PEEP
âŚcont.
41. Advantages of MH
⢠Reverses atelectasis (Lumb 2000)
⢠Improves oxygen saturation and lung compliance (Patman
et al.,1999)
⢠Improves sputum clearance (Hodgson et al., 2000)
âŚcont.
42. Disadvantages of MH
⢠Haemodynamic and metabolic upset (Stone, 1991 & Singer
et al.,1994)
⢠Risk of barotrauma
⢠Discomfort and anxiety
âŚcont.
45. ⢠Suctioning is the mechanical aspiration of pulmonary
secretions from a patient with an artificial airway in place.
⢠Indications
â Inability to cough effectively
â Sputum plugging
â To assess tube patency
âŚcont.
48. ⢠The suction catheter used must be less than half the
diameter of endotracheal tube.
⢠The vacuum pressure should be as low as possible. (60-
150mmHg)
⢠Suction should never be routine, only when there is an
indication
âŚcont.
53. ⢠Critically ill
(Frequent Position changes, Active and Passive Exercises)
⢠Stable
(Progressive tilting & Ambulation)
âŚcont.
54. ⢠ICU rehabilitation has been shown to accelerate
recovery (oâleary & coackley, 1996)
⢠Early mobilization for unconscious patients starts right
from turning the patient every two hours. ( Brooks-
brunn, 1995).
⢠Graded exercises can be started as soon as the patient
regains consciousness.
âŚcont.
55.
56. ⢠Activity is required to maintain sensory input, comfort, joint
mobility and healing ability (Frank et al, 1994).
⢠Activity minimizes the weakness caused by loss of up to
half the patients muscle mass (Griffiths & Jones, 1999).
⢠Graded ambulation can be started depending on patients
condition
