Abstract
OBJECTIVE: A retrospective analysis of the epidemiology and intensive care treatment of ARDS in Iceland during the 10 year period, 1988-1997 with observation of trends within the period. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All ICU admissions in Iceland 1988-1997 were reviewed according to the American-European consensus conference criteria on ARDS to select patients with the diagnosis of ARDS i.e. bilateral pulmonary infiltrates, PaO(2)/FiO(2) <200 and excluding patients with signs of heart failure or a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) >18 mmHg. Data were collected on age, gender, length of stay, ventilator treatment and ventilatory modes, causes of ARDS and mortality. RESULTS: A total of 220 patients with severe respiratory failure were found and 155 of them were diagnosed as having ARDS or an annual incidence of 15.5 cases/year or 5.9 cases/100.000/year. If reference population >15 years of age is used for calculation the incidence is 7.8 cases/100.000/year. Hospital mortality was 40%, mean length of ICU stay was 21 days, mean hospital length of stay 39 days. The incidence of ARDS increased during the period with a tendency to lower mortality rates. Mortality was significantly lower when pressure controlled ventilation was used, compared to volume controlled ventilation. CONCLUSION: The incidence of ARDS in a well defined population of Iceland is lower than recent studies in USA and Europe have shown or 5.9 cases/100.00/year but is increasing. The mortality is 40% and shows a slight downward trend, which may be due to the use of lung protective ventilation.
Tilgangur: Að kanna nýgengi, orsakir, dánarhlutfall og öndunarvélarmeðferð sjúklinga með brátt and­nauðarheilkenni (BAH) á gjörgæsludeildum á Íslandi á 10 ára tímabili. Efniviður og aðferðir: Farið var yfir allar inn­lagn­ir á gjörgæsludeildir á Íslandi 1988-1997 og sjúk­lingar með alvarlega öndunarbilun skoðaðir sérstaklega. Safnað var upplýsingum um aldurs- og kynjadreifingu, orsakir, legutíma, gjör­gæslumeðferð og af­drif þeirra sjúklinga sem féllu undir alþjóðlega skilgreiningu á BAH, það er bráður sjúkdómur með dreifðar íferðir í báðum lungum án merkja um hjartabilun og PaO2/FiO2 hlutfall <200. Borin voru saman árabilin 1988-1992 og 1993-1997. Niðurstöður: Alls reyndust 220 sjúklingar vera með alvarlega öndunarbilun. Af þeim reynd­ust 155 sjúklingar falla undir alþjóðlegu skil­grein­inguna á BAH, 82 konur og 73 karlar, og var meðalaldur 52,3 ár. Nýgengi var 15,5 tilfelli á ári, eða 5,9 tilfelli/100.000 íbúa/ár. Ef miðað er við mannfjölda eldri en 15 ára var nýgengi 7,8 tilfelli 100.000/ár. Alls létust 62 sjúklingar, eða 40%. Meðallegutími á gjörgæsludeild var 21 dagur en legutími á sjúkrahúsi 39 dagar. Meðaltími frá áfalli að staðfestum BAH var 3,2 dagar. Til­fell­um á hverja 100.000 íbúa fjölgaði seinni hluta tímabilsins, úr 4,8 tilfellum/100.000 íbúa/ár 1988-1992 í 6,9 tilfelli/100.000 íbúa/ár 1993-1997. Dánar­hlutfall lækkaði úr 46,9% í 40,2% en ekki töl­fræði­lega marktækt. Ef notuð var þrýstingsstýrð öndunarvélarmeðferð var dánarhlutfall 38,7% en var 45,7% ef rúmmálstýrð meðferð var notuð. Ályktun: Tilfellum af BAH virðist fara fjölgandi á gjörgæsludeildum á Íslandi. Um er að ræða fremur ungt fólk og dánarhlutfall er hátt en hefur lækkað svipað og í nágrannalöndunum og bendir flest til þess að framfarir í gjörgæslumeðferð svo sem lungnaverndandi öndunarvélameðferð séu að skila árangri.
