BACKGROUNDThe benefits of early continuous neuromuscular blockade in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who are receiving mechanical ventilation remain unclear.
METHODSWe randomly assigned patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS (defined by a ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to the fraction of inspired oxygen of <150 mm Hg with a positive end-expiratory pressure [PEEP] of ≥8 cm of water) to a 48-hour continuous infusion of cisatracurium with concomitant deep sedation (intervention group) or to a usual-care approach without routine neuromuscular blockade and with lighter sedation targets (control group). The same mechanical-ventilation strategies were used in both groups, including a strategy involving a high PEEP. The primary end point was in-hospital death from any cause at 90 days.
RESULTSThe trial was stopped at the second interim analysis for futility. We enrolled 1006 patients early after the onset of moderate-to-severe ARDS (median, 7.6 hours after onset). During the first 48 hours after randomization, 488 of the 501 patients (97.4%) in the intervention group started a continuous infusion of cisatracurium (median duration of infusion, 47.8 hours; median dose, 1807 mg), and 86 of the 505 patients (17.0%) in the control group received a neuromuscular blocking agent (median dose, 38 mg). At 90 days, 213 patients (42.5%) in the intervention group and 216 (42.8%) in the control group had died before hospital discharge (between-group difference, −0.3 percentage points; 95% confidence interval, −6.4 to 5.9; P = 0.93). While in the hospital, patients in the intervention group were less physi-cally active and had more adverse cardiovascular events than patients in the con-trol group. There were no consistent between-group differences in end points as-sessed at 3, 6, and 12 months.
CONCLUSIONSAmong patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS who were treated with a strategy involving a high PEEP, there was no significant difference in mortality at 90 days between patients who received an early and continuous cisatracurium infusion and those who were treated with a usual-care approach with lighter sedation targets.

Effects of NMBA on Oxygenation.When analyzed for the entire 120 hrs,there was a significant beneficial effect ofthe NMBA on the course of PaO2/FIO2 ra-tio (p ! .021 by two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance) as com-pared with the control group. Individualcomparisons at each time point indicatedthat patients randomized to NMBA had ahigher PaO2/FIO2 at 48, 96, and 120 hrsafter randomization (Fig. 1). Concerningshort-term effects, there was no modifi-cation of the PaO2/FIO2 ratio at 1 hr afterrandomization in the NMBA group (142" 46 vs. 130 " 34 at baseline, p ! .29)and in the control group (126 " 38 vs.119 " 31, p ! .48). The pharmacologicand nonpharmacologic treatments usedin these ARDS patients after inclusion aredetailed in Table 3. Prone positioning and
corticosteroids were never used duringthe first 5 days after inclusion.
Effects of NMBA on Requirements forFIO2 and PEEP. Repeated-measures anal-ysis of variance showed that PEEP de-creased during the 120-hr period in theNMBA group (p ! .036). Mean dailyPEEP values through day 5 are shown inFigure 2. A decrease of FIO2 over time wasobserved (p # .001) (Table 4).
Other Respiratory and HemodynamicEffects of NMBA. Peak and plateau pres-sures decreased over time (p ! .001 andp ! .012, respectively) (Tables 4 and 5).Two-way repeated-measures analysis ofvariance showed that this decrease overtime was reinforced in the group of pa-tients receiving NMBA (p ! .018 and p !.04, respectively). The evolution of pla-teau pressure is shown in Figure 3. The
present study showed that PaCO2 was notaffected by the use of NMBA. A slight butsignificant time-related increase of thepH was observed (p # .001). It was asso-ciated with a nonsignificant decrease ofPaCO2 and a nonsignificant increase ofHCO3 (data not shown). There was nodifference between the two groups con-cerning hemodynamic status.
Use of NMBA and Sedatives. All pa-tients included in the NMBA group pre-sented four responses to the train-of-fourassessment performed 8 hrs after the ter-mination of administration (48 hrs for allbut two patients; see below). Patients in-cluded in the NMBA group received 1324" 197 mg of cisatracurium. There was nodifference in temperature between thetwo groups throughout the study period(data not shown). One bolus of cisatra-curium was used in two patients includedin the control group for a sustained (5-min) increase of plateau pressure exceed-ing 35 cm H2O. Finally, only two patientsincluded in the NMBA group required acontinuous infusion of NMBA due to ahigh plateau pressure (for 24 and 48 hrslonger after the initial 48-hr period afterrandomization) group. Succinylcholinewas used in eight patients (five includedin the control group and three in theNMBA group) for a bronchoscopy per-formed in patients exhibiting a plateaupressure of 30–35 cm H2O (seven pa-tients) and a reintubation (one patient).
A Ramsay score of 6 was obtained inall patients included in the study duringthe first 48-hr period. Midazolam andsufentanil were used for longer periods inICU survivors included in the NMBAgroup than in ICU survivors included inthe control group, but the difference didnot reach statistical significance (Table2). The dosage of sufentanil and midazo-lam during the 120-hr period was notdifferent between the two groups (768 "372 mg of midazolam and 2840 " 1327$g of sufentanil for controls, 789 " 307mg of midazolam and 2687 " 1445 $g ofsufentanil in patients receiving NMBA).
Outcome. Only one patient from thecontrol group developed pneumothorax.No patient from the NMBA group pre-sented with barotrauma. No patient pre-sented clinically detectable critical illnessneuromyopathy. Thirteen patients in theNMBA group (46%) and 16 patients in thecontrol group (57%) presented with aventilator-associated pneumonia (not sig-nificant). As presented in Table 5, therewas no difference between the two groupsconcerning the duration of mechanical

The incidence of ICU-acquired paresis, as evaluated on the basis of the MRC score on day 28 or at the time of ICU discharge, did not differ significantly between the two groups (Table 3).
Secondary Post Hoc OutcomeCorticosteroids were used during the ICU stay in 189 patients. There was no significant effect of cisatracurium use on the 90-day mortality in the subgroup of patients given corticosteroids (Fig. 6 in the Supplementary Appendix).
Ventilator Settings and Lung FunctionVentilator settings and lung-function variables dur-ing the first week are given in Table 7 in the Sup-plementary Appendix. On day 7, the PaO2:FiO2 ratio was higher, and the PaCO2 value lower, in the cisatracurium group than in the placebo group.
CointerventionsDuring the ICU stay, there were no significant between-group differences in the incidence of cointerventions. A total of 42% of patients in the cisatracurium group and 48% in the placebo group were treated with the use of prone positioning, inhaled nitric oxide, intravenous almitrine mesy-late, or a combination of these (Table 8 in the Sup-plementary Appendix). The criteria for using these interventions were the same in the two groups.
Open-label cisatracurium was given more fre-quently in the placebo group than in the cisatra-cu rium group during the first 48 hours after enrollment. However, the two groups did not dif-fer significantly with respect to the number of pa-tients given at least one open-label cisatracuri um bolus during the entire ICU stay after enrollment (Table 8 in the Supplementary Appendix). The re-quired dose of sedatives or analgesics was similar in the two groups during the first week of the study (Table 9 in the Supplementary Appendix).
SafetyBradycardia developed during the cisatracurium infusion in one patient. No other side effects were reported.
Discussion
Treatment with the neuromuscular blocking agent cisatracurium for 48 hours early in the course of severe ARDS improved the adjusted 90-day sur-vival rate, increased the numbers of ventilator-free days and days outside the ICU, and decreased
the incidence of barotrauma during the first 90 days. It did not significantly improve the overall 90-day mortality.
Strengths of this trial include the methods used to minimize bias (blinded randomization assign-ments, a well-defined study protocol, complete follow-up, and intention-to-treat analyses). The re-cruitment of a large number of patients from 20 multidisciplinary ICUs where international stan-dards of care are followed suggests that our data can be generalized to other ICUs.
Limitations of the trial include the fact that our results were obtained for cisatracurium bes-ylate and may not apply to other neuromuscular blocking agents. Furthermore, we did not assess the use of a neuromuscular blocking agent late in the course of ARDS or use on the basis of plateau-pressure or transpulmonary-pressure measure-ments.20 Another limitation is the absence of data on conditions known to antagonize or potentiate neuromuscular blockade. However, any condition that increases the duration of neuromuscular blockade would have adversely affected the patients receiving the neuromuscular blocking agent, in particular by increasing the duration of mechani-cal ventilation.
The sample-size calculation was based on our two previous studies performed in four ICUs13,15 that used the same inclusion criteria as were used in the current trial and on the European epidemio-logic study ALIVE.4 However, the mortality in the placebo group in this study (40.7%) is lower than

neural efforts entrained by the ventilator at three different ratios: 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3. We defi ned these neural efforts apparently triggered by the ventilator as “reverse-triggered breaths.” They occurred mainly around the transition phase from mechanical inspira-tion to expiration, remaining unnoticed by the treat-ing physician. These “reverse-triggered breaths” form a potentially common, yet unclassifi ed, form of patient-ventilator interaction.
Pathophysiologic Mechanisms of Respiratory Entrainment
The pathophysiologic mechanisms of “reverse trig-gering,” described in the current study, could be related to the phenomenon of respiratory entrainment, reported only in animals, 4,5,9,11,15,16 healthy humans, 3,6,7 and preterm infants. 17,18 As in the recovery of rhyth-mic limb motor movements after peripheral stimula-tion in spinal cord-injured cats, afferent inputs seem to play a critical role on entrainment generation. 19,20 Failure in the reproduction of the phenomenon in anesthetized animals after bilateral vagotomy has emphasized that slowly adapting stretch receptors, responsible for the Hering-Breuer refl exes, are essential for respiratory entrainment mechanisms. 5,11,15 Despite its fundamental role, the Hering-Breuer refl ex is not the only factor implicated in entrainment phenomena.
Entrainment can be observed after vagal cooling in animals and in healthy subjects who have under-gone a lung transplant. In these scenarios, however, there is a wider distribution around each phase angle and a more limited ventilator rate range. 6,9 Rapidly adapting receptors and vagal C fibers, along with cortical and subcortical infl uences, also seem to be responsible for respiratory rhythm entrainment to the ventilator.
Methodologic Aspects
We initially defi ned entrainment visually, based on the inspection of available recordings, and, provided
that entrainment periods were evident, we proceeded to phase angles calculation. The strength of the entrain-ment was assessed by the SD and the IQR of the phase angles and, additionally, by the variability of the T tot neu. Because respiratory entrainment has not yet been classifi ed formally and various periods or cycle-based defi nitions have been adopted, we rea-soned that the 1:1 entrainment had to be present for a minimum of fi ve consecutive cycles and more complex patterns (ie, 1:2 and 1:3) for a minimum of 10 cycles for entrainment to be characterized as stable. 4,7,9,16,17
Characteristics of Reverse Triggering
Entrainment periods of variable duration and ratios were observed in all consecutive patients studied, causing regular reverse triggering. Our recordings were not specifi cally performed for this purpose, and one may thus hypothesize that the phenomenon is frequent in sedated patients, though scarcely recog-nized under mechanical ventilation. Indeed, respi-ratory entrainment could be reproduced in studies conducted in animals and normal subjects. The true incidence of the phenomenon in the ICU setting needs to be studied.
We believe that the fact that all patients in the cur-rent study had ARDS possibly refl ects (1) the physi-cian’s decision to monitor respiratory mechanics and neural efforts in this specifi c group of patients rather than an association between ARDS and entrainment phenomena, and (2) that this is a group of patients often receiving high doses of sedatives. To what extent the type of critical illness and the magnitude of respi-ratory mechanics’ compromise promote reverse trig-gering remains to be explored.
All patients were deeply sedated as suggested by the low RASS score. Simon et al 7 investigated the effect of the wake state and found that wakefulness and anesthesia, in contrast to non-rapid eye movement sleep, broadened the range of machine frequencies at

observations in normal lung, in which diaphragmatic contrac-tion triggers local changes in Ppl that are uniformly transmittedacross the entire lung surface (3–7). This principle explains, inpart, why Pes is used as a surrogate of overall Ppl to optimizelung distention, an approach that may improve outcome inpatients with ARDS (18, 20).
In the current study we confirmed that spontaneous effortduring mechanical ventilation in healthy (uninjured) lungsresulted in almost simultaneous inflation throughout the lung.Although inflation of different regions occurred at differentrates, inflation was almost simultaneous in all areas; there wasno significant concomitant deflation (see Figure E1). In addi-tion, airway occlusion tests performed in healthy lung demon-strated that changes in Pes closely matched changes in Paw (andlocal changes in Ppl matched changes in Paw) (see Figure E3).Thus, these observations indicate simultaneous generalizationof local Ppl changes throughout normal lung, supporting theconcept of fluid-like behavior in the (normal) lung (1–7).
However, the pattern of lung inflation was different in thepresence of lung injury. In the injured lung pendelluft occurred.It resulted from the development of a more negative swing in Ppl
in the dependent lung than in the nondependent lung. Acutelung injury involves tissue inflammation and fluid-filled alveoliin a heterogeneous distribution; thus, some areas are well aer-ated and others collapse or fill with fluid and inflammatory cells
(15). Such dense tissue may behave less like a fluid and more asa frame of solid areas resisting shape deformation. In this set-ting, part of the mechanical energy generated by the diaphrag-matic contraction is exerted on local lung deformation ratherthan being transmitted to the rest of the lung; this results inimperfect elastic anisotropic inflation. Because atelectasis inARDS tends to be greater in the dependent and peridiaphrag-matic lung regions (21), such responses might be more markedin these areas. Supporting this idea is the finding that even innormal lung, extreme levels of phrenic nerve stimulation, whichresults in exaggerated diaphragmatic contraction, can causemore negative change in Ppl at the diaphragmatic surface thanin other parts of the lung (3, 5, 6). Thus, even the normal lungmay depart from its fluid-like behavior at extreme levels ofdeformation. We speculate that during injury, this phenomenonis exacerbated and, even at moderate levels of muscle effort, thephysical properties of the lung cannot compensate (i.e., withsufficient rapidity) for dynamic shape changes produced by di-aphragmatic contraction.
An important issue of clinical relevance is that this effect isnot detectable using conventional monitoring. In the currentstudy, demonstration of the effect required dynamic imaging(i.e., EIT or dynamic CT). In addition, although esophagealmonometry (Pes) is becoming a more standard clinical tool forestimation of PL or DPL (18, 20), this technique significantly
Figure 4. Regional distribution of inflation-deflation in lung injury, dynamic computed tomography. When spontaneous breathing effort waspresent, the computed tomography studies showed an intraslice movement of air (from nondependent to dependent zones) in lung slices closeto the diaphragm (deflation from 1 to 2 in nondependent and concomitant inflation from 3 to 4 in dependent regions). This is consistent withpendelluft observed in electrical impedance tomography. Importantly, pendelluft caused tidal recruitment of dependent regions (red) by concom-itant deflating nondependent regions (green).

Clusters of ineffective efforts during mechanical ventilation: impact on outcome

Although all ‘control’ modes in modern ventilators allow assisted breaths, use of those modes in spontaneously breathing patients varies in everyday practice, and is very limited in our ICU. Thus, it should be emphasized that the observed results are derived from the specific popula-tion studied, and cannot be generalized without further studies.
The value of the obtained results also relies on the method used to identify IEs. The reported sensitivity of the PVI monitor in identifying IEs is 87 % [11], with most cases of missed IEs occurring in patients with very severe flow limitation. In our study, 24 patients (22 %) had a diagnosis of COPD, and only 11 (10 %) were admitted for exacerbation of COPD, suggesting that at least a similar sensitivity could be expected. A similar accuracy in iden-tification of IEs was reported for the software used in the Blanch et al. study [14]. Furthermore, the main results of the study were the same in an analysis of a subgroup of patients, excluding those with COPD (Table S8).
A rather prolonged duration of ventilation and ICU stay was observed in our patients, which could be attrib-uted to the exclusion of patients on CPAP or low assist, and those expected to proceed to a T-piece trial within 24 h of initiation of assisted ventilation. This could be regarded as one of the strengths of the study, as moni-toring of events would be implemented in everyday prac-tice in patients expected to have a relatively long weaning period. However, in our study, the patients were not rig-orously classified into weaning category [19].
Finally, this work was not designed to study the cause of IEs or events, and cannot clarify to what extent the presence of events has a causal relationship with patient outcome. It is reasonable to assume that more severely ill patients having ICU-acquired weakness would have more IEs, and would also require prolonged mechani-cal ventilation [20]. Yet, there are other possible mecha-nisms by which IEs, and particularly events, could be associated with adverse patient outcome. For example, the presence of IEs during expiration would cause pleio-metric contraction to the diaphragm, damaging muscle fibers [21, 22]; discomfort could induce stress [13, 23]; and unrecognized IEs could lead to mistakes in decision-making during weaning [24, 25]. Whether and to what extent IEs are correctable, and whether that would affect patient outcome, were not examined in this study, nor, to our knowledge, in any other past study. However, it is reasonable to assume that appropriate ventilator alarms would significantly facilitate research in this important issue.
In conclusion, this study introduces the concept of events to describe the clusters of ineffective efforts. Not-withstanding that the thresholds used for event definition were rather arbitrary, the presence of events, as well as their power and duration, are associated with prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation and higher hospi-tal mortality. As the computation of an event can be performed in real time, through the use of appropriate

THIS OFFICIAL CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINE OF THE AMERICAN THORACIC SOCIETY (ATS), EUROPEAN SOCIETY OF INTENSIVE CARE MEDICINE (ESICM), AND
SOCIETY OF CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE (SCCM) WAS APPROVED BY THE ATS, ESICM, AND SCCM, MARCH 2017
Background: This document provides evidence-basedclinical practice guidelines on the use of mechanical ventilationin adult patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
Methods: A multidisciplinary panel conducted systematic reviewsand metaanalyses of the relevant research and applied Grading ofRecommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluationmethodology for clinical recommendations.
Results: For all patients with ARDS, the recommendation is strong formechanical ventilation using lower tidal volumes (4–8 ml/kg predictedbodyweight) and lower inspiratory pressures (plateau pressure, 30 cmH2O) (moderate confidence in effect estimates). For patients with severeARDS, the recommendation is strong for prone positioning for more
than 12 h/d (moderate confidence in effect estimates). For patients withmoderateor severeARDS, the recommendation is strongagainst routineuse of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (high confidence in effectestimates) and conditional for higher positive end-expiratory pressure(moderate confidence in effect estimates) and recruitment maneuvers(low confidence in effect estimates). Additional evidence is necessary tomake a definitive recommendation for or against the use ofextracorporeal membrane oxygenation in patients with severe ARDS.
Conclusions: The panel formulated and provided the rationale forrecommendations on selected ventilatory interventions for adultpatients with ARDS. Clinicians managing patients with ARDS shouldpersonalize decisions for their patients, particularly regarding theconditional recommendations in this guideline.

Second, our sensitivity analyses found that studies limited to patients with severe sepsis or septic shock demonstrated the strongest association between NMBAs and neuromuscular dysfunction acquired in critical illness; inadequate reporting
of patients with sepsis (as opposed to severe sepsis or septic shock) precluded this group from being included in this analy-sis. Both of the studies in the severe sepsis or septic shock sensi-tivity analysis evaluated for CIP. The first case series to describe
CIP, published by Bolton et al (34) in 1984, implicated sepsis in its pathogenesis. Subsequent analyses that adjusted for con-founders (13) also supported sepsis as an independent risk factor. Our analysis provides additional support that an association between NMBAs given to patients with sepsis and neuromuscular dysfunc-tion acquired in critical ill-ness exists, and consistent with prior work (9, 29), the association may be propor-tional to the severity of sepsis. Specifically, as demonstrated in Supplemental Figure 1h (Supplemental Digital Content 6, http://links.lww.com/CCM/B854; legend, Supplemental Digital Content 7, http://links.lww.com/CCM/B855),

SEDATION AS A POTENTIAL RISK FACTOR FOR ICU-AW
NMBA use, and subsequent immobilization, must always be ac-companied by appropriate levels of sedation, which also sustainimmobilization. Indeed, inadequate use of sedation in conjunc-tion with NMBAs may exacerbate psychosocial morbidity inICU survivors, although this is beyond the remit of this review.Prolonged immobilization results in electrophysiological dys-function, decreased muscle protein synthesis, loss of musclemass, and microvascular dysfunction (73–76). Although bedrest, antigravity, and hind limb suspension models simulate im-mobility, sedation should also be considered as an independentrisk factor above the effects on immobilization. Propofol andbenzodiazepines positively modulate the inhibitory function ofthe neurotransmitter g-amino-butyric acid (GABA) (77, 78).GABA facilitates the opening of the voltage-gated chloridechannels in skeletal muscle, which decreases muscle excitability(78, 79). Barbiturates and ketamine attenuate the response ofexcitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate, decreasing mus-cle tone by acting on motor-associated neurons in the spinalcord via N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors (78, 80, 81).Thus, continued sedation could be expected to have a greatereffect on muscle atrophy and muscle weakness than the conven-tional awake human and animal immobility models. This couldexplain the results of previous studies that have shown thatICU-AW was greater in those patients exposed to a higher sed-ative load (71). It is therefore reasonable to postulate the bene-ficial physical effects observed in studies using sedation protocols
with sedation holds and reduced sedation load (82–85) are poten-tially the direct result of decreased frequency and severity of ICU-AW. There are no published data investigating the association ofsedation level with ICU-AW or patient arousal and activity andICU-AW.With current prevailing clinical practice favoring amoreminimalistic approach to sedation and a proactive approach tomobilization (82–84, 86), clinicians may focus further on reducingthe use of sedatives.
APPLICATION OF HISTORIC NMBA DATA IN THE 21STCENTURY CRITICAL CARE SETTING
To interpret previous studies objectively, we need to consider thepatient groups investigated and their clinical management. Itmust be acknowledged that the majority of data from previousuncontrolled studies indicating a causal relationship betweenNMBAs and ICU-AW were observations made during the lastcentury (Table 1). Clinical practice has changed significantlyover the last 20 years. The majority of patients included in thesestudies had primary ventilatory failure, and strategies of me-chanical ventilation were markedly different from those cur-rently practiced. In the 1980s and early 1990s, the mostcommon ventilators used lacked the ability to support sponta-neous ventilation through pressure-support (PS) modes,whereas others lacked a synchronized intermittent mandatorymode of ventilation. The commonest weaning mode used in theUnited States in the late 1980s was the use of mandatory breathsfrom intermittent mandatory ventilation, supplemented by

BACKGROUNDThe benefits of early continuous neuromuscular blockade in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) who are receiving mechanical ventilation remain unclear.
METHODSWe randomly assigned patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS (defined by a ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to the fraction of inspired oxygen of <150 mm Hg with a positive end-expiratory pressure [PEEP] of ≥8 cm of water) to a 48-hour continuous infusion of cisatracurium with concomitant deep sedation (intervention group) or to a usual-care approach without routine neuromuscular blockade and with lighter sedation targets (control group). The same mechanical-ventilation strategies were used in both groups, including a strategy involving a high PEEP. The primary end point was in-hospital death from any cause at 90 days.
RESULTSThe trial was stopped at the second interim analysis for futility. We enrolled 1006 patients early after the onset of moderate-to-severe ARDS (median, 7.6 hours after onset). During the first 48 hours after randomization, 488 of the 501 patients (97.4%) in the intervention group started a continuous infusion of cisatracurium (median duration of infusion, 47.8 hours; median dose, 1807 mg), and 86 of the 505 patients (17.0%) in the control group received a neuromuscular blocking agent (median dose, 38 mg). At 90 days, 213 patients (42.5%) in the intervention group and 216 (42.8%) in the control group had died before hospital discharge (between-group difference, −0.3 percentage points; 95% confidence interval, −6.4 to 5.9; P = 0.93). While in the hospital, patients in the intervention group were less physi-cally active and had more adverse cardiovascular events than patients in the con-trol group. There were no consistent between-group differences in end points as-sessed at 3, 6, and 12 months.
CONCLUSIONSAmong patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS who were treated with a strategy involving a high PEEP, there was no significant difference in mortality at 90 days between patients who received an early and continuous cisatracurium infusion and those who were treated with a usual-care approach with lighter sedation targets.

D.2 WEANING Commencement of weaning
Patients will be assessed for the following weaning readiness criteria each day between 0600 and 1000. If a patient procedure, test, or other extenuating circumstance prevents assessment for these criteria between 0600 and 1000, then the assessment and initiation of subsequent weaning procedures may be delayed for up to six hours. Patients can be assessed for weaning readiness criteria twice a day.

† Sex and race were determined by the coordinators on the basis of hospital records or information from the next of kin.
‡ Acute Physiology, Age, and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE III) scores range from 0 to 299, with higher scores indicating more severe illness.41 The APACHE III score was assessed in 455 patients in the intervention group and 459 in the control group.
§ Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores were measured in 5 organ systems (respiratory, cardiovascular, hematologic, gastrointestinal, and renal; the neurologic system was not assessed), with each organ scored from 0 to 4, resulting in an aggregated score that ranges from 0 to 20, with higher scores indicating greater dysfunction.28 The SOFA score was not assessed in 1 patient in the control group.
¶ The tidal volume was assessed in 445 patients in the intervention group and 443 in the control group.∥ The fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) was assessed in 469 patients in the intervention group and 474 in the control
group.** The inspiratory plateau pressure was assessed in 274 patients in the intervention group and 266 in the control group.†† The positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was assessed in 492 patients in the intervention group and 495 in the
control group.‡‡ The ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) to FIO2 was assessed in 452 patients in the intervention group
and 460 in the control group. The FIO2 value reflects the value that was recorded closest to the time of randomization within the 24 hours before randomization.
§§ If an arterial blood gas analysis was not available at randomization, the PaO2:FIO2 could be inferred from the oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry. The imputed PaO2:FIO2 was calculated in 49 patients in the intervention group and 45 patients in the control group.

Early Neuromuscular Block ade in ARDS
a neuromuscular blocking agent during the first 48 hours at a median cisatracurium (or equivalent) dose of 38 mg (interquartile range, 14 to 200). Additional details on the dosing of neuromuscu-lar blocking agents are provided in Table S3 in the Supplementary Appendix. Patients in the intervention group were under deeper sedation than patients in the control group both during the 48-hour intervention period and on the third trial day (Fig. 2). During the first 24 hours, pa-tients in the intervention group had lower PEEP requirements than patients in the control group (between-group difference, −0.9 cm of water; 95% confidence interval [CI], −1.5 to −0.4). Dur-ing the first and second 24-hour periods, patients in the intervention group also had lower minute ventilation (the between-group difference on day 1 was −0.7 liters per minute [95% CI, −1.1 to −0.2], and on day 2, −0.8 liters per minute [95% CI, −1.2 to −0.4]), lower FIO2 requirements (the between-group difference on both day 1 and day 2 was −0.04 [95% CI, −0.06 to −0.02]), and higher driving pressures (the between-group difference on day 1 was 0.7 cm of water [95% CI, 0.0 to 1.3], and on day 2, 0.8 cm of water [95% CI, 0.1 to −1.5]). However, there were no between-group differences in the PaO2:FIO2 from day 1 through day 7. Improvement in oxygenation was similar among patients who were enrolled early and those who were enrolled late after the onset of ARDS. From day 1 through day 7, there was good adherence to the protocol with respect to PEEP and FIO2 recommendations, and adherence to recommended ventilation guidelines ranged from 80.1 to 87.5% with respect to low tidal vol-ume ventilation (≤6.5 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight) and 85.6 to 90.8% with respect to low plateau pressures (≤30 cm of water). The median daily fluid balance was 327 ml (interquar-tile range, −951 to 1456) on day 2 and −242 ml (interquartile range, −1432 to 728) on day 3, and there were no differences between trial groups. Additional details are provided in Figure S1 and Tables S4 through S8 in the Supplementary Ap-pendix.
Primary End PointAt 90 days, in-hospital death from any cause oc-curred in 213 patients (42.5%) in the interven-
tion group and in 216 patients (42.8%) in the control group (between-group difference, −0.3 percentage points; 95% CI, −6.4 to 5.9; P = 0.93) (Fig. 3 and Table 2). Treatment-by-subgroup inter-actions were not significant with respect to
Figure 2. Neuromuscular Blockade and Sedation.
Panel A shows the mean percentage of patients who received continuous neuromuscular blockade, and Panel B shows the mean percentage of patients who were under light sedation during the first week of the trial. Light sedation was defined by a score of 0 or −1 on the Richmond Agitation–Sedation Scale (scores range from 4 [combative] to −5 [unresponsive], with a score of 0 indicating that the patient is alert and calm), a score of 3 or 4 on the Riker Sedation–Agitation Scale (scores range from 1 [unresponsive] to 7 [dangerous agitation], with a score of 4 indicating that the patient is calm and cooperative), or a score of 2 or 3 on the Ramsay Sedation Scale (scores range from 1 [anxious, restless] to 6 [unresponsive], with a score of 2 indicating that the patient is cooperative and oriented).21-23 More details are provided in Tables S3 and S4 in the Supple-mentary Appendix.

The median daily fluid balance was 327 ml (interquar-tile range, −951 to 1456) on day 2 and −242 ml (interquartile range, −1432 to 728) on day 3, and there were no differences between trial groups. Additional details are provided in Figure S1 and Tables S4 through S8 in the Supplementary Ap-pendix.
Primary End PointAt 90 days, in-hospital death from any cause oc-curred in 213 patients (42.5%) in the interven-
tion group and in 216 patients (42.8%) in the control group (between-group difference, −0.3 percentage points; 95% CI, −6.4 to 5.9; P = 0.93) (Fig. 3 and Table 2). Treatment-by-subgroup inter-actions were not significant with respect to
Figure 2. Neuromuscular Blockade and Sedation.
Panel A shows the mean percentage of patients who received continuous neuromuscular blockade, and Panel B shows the mean percentage of patients who were under light sedation during the first week of the trial. Light sedation was defined by a score of 0 or −1 on the Richmond Agitation–Sedation Scale (scores range from 4 [combative] to −5 [unresponsive], with a score of 0 indicating that the patient is alert and calm), a score of 3 or 4 on the Riker Sedation–Agitation Scale (scores range from 1 [unresponsive] to 7 [dangerous agitation], with a score of 4 indicating that the patient is calm and cooperative), or a score of 2 or 3 on the Ramsay Sedation Scale (scores range from 1 [anxious, restless] to 6 [unresponsive], with a score of 2 indicating that the patient is cooperative and oriented).21-23 More details are provided in Tables S3 and S4 in the Supple-mentary Appendix.

Plus-minus values are means ± SD with (no.). We calculated the number of days without organ failure by subtracting the number of days with organ failure from the lesser of 28 days or the number of days to death if death occurred prior to day 29. Organs and systems were considered failure-free after patients were discharged from the hospital. For each organ, failure was defined as a sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score >2 (range: 0-4, where higher scores = greater dysfunction). No neurologic score was collected or assessed.11

ARDS severity, ARDS duration, or previous neuro-muscular blockade use stratified according to hospital tercile. Other than the interaction of treatment assignment with ethnic group (P = 0.02 for interaction), no other interactions were sig-nificant (Fig. S2 and Tables S9 through S15 in the Supplementary Appendix).
Secondary End PointsAt 28 days, there was no between-group differ-ence in hospital mortality, days free of ventila-tion, days out of the ICU, or days out of the hospital (Table 2). Cardiovascular SOFA scores were higher in the intervention group than in the control group on day 1 (between-group differ-ence, 0.2; 95% CI, 0.1 to 0.4) and day 2 (between-group difference, 0.3; 95% CI, 0.1 to 0.5). How-ever, there were no differences thereafter, nor were there differences in total SOFA scores or other organ-specific SOFA scores. The use of adjunctive therapies appeared to be similar in the two groups during the 48-hour intervention period (between-group difference, 0.7 percentage
points; 95% CI, −4.0 to 5.5) and through day 28 (between-group difference, 1.2 percentage points; 95% CI, −4.2 to 6.6). Overall, prone positioning was used in 15.8% of patients (159 patients), with similar use in the two groups (between-group difference, 1.9 percentage points; 95% CI, −2.6 to 6.4). Most (56% [42 patients]) of the 75 patients who underwent prone positioning in the control group did not receive concomitant neuromuscular blockade. Glucocorticoid use was also similar in the two groups. The mean (±SE) estimated mortality at 1 year was also not different between groups (51.1±2.2% in the in-tervention group and 51.1±2.2% in the control group). Patient-reported outcomes were similar between the groups at 3, 6, and 12 months, in-cluding health-related scores and health-related limitations with respect to disability, cognitive function, symptoms resembling those of post-traumatic stress, and pain. Additional infor-mation on secondary end points is provided in Tables S16 through S23 in the Supplementary Appendix.

Figure S2. Survival curves for the subgroups, PaO2 /FIO2 <120 and ≥120 mmHg
PaO2 denotes partial pressure of arterial oxygen, FIO2 denotes the fraction of inspired oxygen, and PaO2/FIO2 ratios expressed as mmHg. Data generated from Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, defining death as deaths occurring in-hospital, as per the primary outcome definition (see Methods). The cutoff values of <120 and ≥120 mmHg were pre-specified, based on a similar subgroup analysis in the ACURASYS study.10 There was no interaction between treatment assignment and subgroup (p=0.76, see Table S9).

* Unless otherwise indicated, plus–minus values are means ±SD. ICU denotes intensive care unit, and SVT supraventricular tachycardia.† Included are all deaths that occurred after randomization in any heath care facility before discharge home until day 90 of the trial. Patients
in a health care facility at day 91 were considered to be alive. The plus–minus values in this category are standard errors.‡ If in-hospital death occurred before day 29, the days free of ventilation and the days not in the hospital at day 28 were considered to be
zero.§ The Medical Research Council (MRC) scale was used to assess muscle strength in 6 muscle groups on each side of the body, for a total of
12 muscle groups. The score for each muscle group can range from 0 (no movement observed) to 5 (muscle contracts normally against full resistance), with the overall score ranging from 0 to 60.37 The MRC score at day 7 was assessed in 122 patients in the intervention group and 131 in the control group; the score at day 28 was assessed in 47 patients in the intervention group and 51 in the control group.
¶ The between-group difference is the difference in MRC score.∥ ICU-acquired weakness was defined as an MRC score of less than 48 if all 12 muscle groups were assessed, or a mean muscle-group
score of less than 4 when at least 7 of the 12 muscle groups were assessed.** A list of all adverse events is provided in Table S24 in the Supplementary Appendix. Participants may have had more than 1 adverse event.
Although mortality was high in both groups, only 1 death from complete heart block and refractory shock was considered possibly related to cisatracurium. No other deaths were reported by participating sites as possibly, probably, or definitely related to cisatracurium or any other procedure specified in the trial protocol.

Plus-minus values are means ± SD (no.). Individual organ SOFA scores: range from 0 to 4, with higher scores indicative of worse organ dysfunction.11 Coagulation is based on platelet count, liver on total bilirubin, cardiovascular on mean arterial pressure and vasopressor utilization, and renal on creatinine and urine output. Total SOFA score is the sum of individual organ scores.

DiscussionThis secondary analysis of patient-level data from theARDSNet trials suggests that not only is riARDScommon but also that its prevalence has increased overtime. It had distinct characteristics and was strongly andconsistently associated with better outcomes comparedwith ARDS > 1 day, with differences in mortality andnonpulmonary organ failure-free days. PaO2:FIO2 atscreening, change in PaO2:FIO2 from screening toenrollment, usage of vasopressor agents, FIO2 atenrollment, and serum bilirubin levels were usefulvariables for prediction of riARDS.
We found that riARDS was common. When estimatingits prevalence, one should keep in mind that, given thelack of a gold standard, ARDS is a challenging diagnosisto make.7 One could therefore support that patients withriARDS had an alternate noninflammatory cause ofhypoxemia and bilateral opacities (eg, atelectasis,cardiogenic pulmonary edema) that could be easilyreversed.26-29 This theory would explain both their rapid
recovery and better overall outcomes (Fig 2, Table 2).However, all patients included in this secondary analysismet the consensus definition criteria of ARDS and wereenrolled in high-quality, randomized controlledtherapeutic trials.17-19
Our finding that the prevalence of riARDS increasedover time is intriguing. One could wonder whether thisfinding is due to differences in exclusion criteria ofARDSNet trials.14-19 For example, although in theARMA and ALVEOLI trials14,15 patients were excludedif clinicians-investigators were unwilling to use volumeassist control for at least 12 h, this exclusion criterionwas dropped in later trials,16-19 and any mode ofventilation (including pressure support) was allowed.One could also attribute the temporal trends inprevalence of riARDS to the fact that optimal ICUpractices, based in part on earlier ARDSNet studies,14,16
were more likely applied in more recent than earliertrials. For example, lung protective ventilation andconservative fluid strategies, as well as sedation cessationpolicies and spontaneous breathing trials, may currentlybe more prevalent than previously, a fact that may helpprevent ventilator-induced lung injury and decreaseduration of mechanical ventilation.3,16,30 There has also

The primary outcome of the present study was 60-day mortality, withpatients discharged from the hospital with unassisted breathing priorto 60 days considered to be alive at 60 days. Time to mortality wasestimated for riARDS and ARDS > 1 day according to Kaplan-Meier analysis and compared by using log-rank tests. We furthertested the association between riARDS and the primary outcomewith a Cox proportional hazards regression, estimating the odds ofmortality within 60 days and using riARDS status as the maincovariate. The analysis corrected for severity of illness by using theAPACHE III score, PaO2:FIO2 at enrollment, and individual trialassignment. Secondary outcomes included the number of days in thefirst 28 days that a patient was alive and not on a ventilator(ventilator-free days), not in the ICU (ICU-free days), or free ofnonpulmonary organ failure (nonpulmonary organ failure-free days).These secondary outcomes have been consistently used in theliterature.4,5,19,25 For each individual trial, both the primary andsecondary outcomes were also compared across experimentaltreatment groups among patients with riARDS and ARDS > 1 day.
We attempted to identify which variables are important to predictriARDS as early as the time of trial enrollment (when patients wereventilated according to a standardized ARDS Clinical Trials Networklower tidal-volume protocol using positive end-expiratory pressure[PEEP]:FIO2 tables).17-19 We randomly divided patients with fullclinical data enrolled in the three most recently published ARDSNet
trials (ALTA, EDEN, and SAILS) into a training and a validationdataset. Machine learning techniques were then used to analyze alarge number of individual variables that were associated withriARDS in the derivation dataset. Random forests were used for thepredictive variables based on level of importance for riARDS status,and the top variables were selected for further study. A final set ofpredictive variables was determined by using insights from themachine learning techniques as well as clinical expertise to optimizesensitivity and negative predictive value. A logistic regression modelwas then created based on these selected variables to quantify theindependent effect of each variable in a parametric model.Multicollinearity of the model was explored by using correlation andvariance inflation factors, with a variance inflation factor > 2considered problematic. We measured accuracy of the logistic modelwith area under the receiver-operating curve, then dichotomized it atthe Youden optimal point and estimated sensitivity, specificity,and negative and positive predicted values, with 95% CIs for each.The logistic model was then used to predict riARDS in thevalidation dataset, to this point unused. Further details are availablein e-Appendix 1, Methods.
All statistical analyses were conducted by using R statistical softwareversion 3.2.3 (R Foundation for Statistical Computing). All P valueswere two-sided, and statistical significance was considered at ana level of 0.05.
Results
Prevalence of riARDS
Of the 4,361 unique patients enrolled in the randomizedcontrolled trials,14-19 458 (10.5%) no longer met thecriteria for ARDS on the first study day followingenrollment. The proportion of enrolled subjects classifiedas riARDS increased over time, from a prevalence of7.3% in ARMA14 to 15.2% in SAILS19 (r2 ¼ 0.760;P ¼ .024) (Fig 1). The association between year of study
publication and riARDS status remained whenaccounting for study-wide ventilator practice, number ofdays from diagnosis of ARDS to trial enrollment, andpatient-level APACHE III scores (adjusted OR, 1.08;95% CI, 1.04-1.13; P ¼ .0003) (e-Table 2).
Due to the increasing prevalence of riARDS over time(Fig 1) and to better reflect modern clinical practice,the remainder of our analyses considered only datafrom the three most recently published ARDSNettrials; namely, ALTA, EDEN, and SAILS (all publishedafter 2010).17-19 Of the 1,909 patients in these trials,197 (10.3%) were extubated on the first study day, and265 (13.9%) patients in total met our definition ofriARDS (Table 1).9
Baseline Characteristics
Baseline data are summarized in Table 1. Use ofvasopressor agents was less common (98 of 265 [37.0%]vs 867 of 1,644 [52.7%]; P < .001), and APACHE IIIscores were lower (80 [64-100] vs 92 [73-112]; P < .001)in patients with riARDS compared with ARDS > 1 day.Pneumonia as the primary risk factor was less commonin patients with riARDS than with ARDS > 1 day (147of 265 [55.5%] vs 1,066 of 1,644 [64.8%]; P ¼ .004]. Riskfactors did not differ between mild, moderate, andsevere ARDS (e-Table 3).

Early Paralytic Agents for ARDS? Yes, No, and Sometimes
Arthur S. Slutsky, C.M., M.D., and Jesús Villar, M.D., Ph.D.
Lung-protective ventilation, which includes low tidal volumes and limitation of plateau pressures, is the standard approach in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).1 Almost a decade ago, the ARDS et Curarisation Systema-tique (ACURASYS) trial2 showed that in patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS, a strategy of 48 hours of deep sedation with muscle paralysis induced by an intravenous infusion of cisatracu-rium resulted in a lower incidence of barotrauma and higher adjusted overall survival at 90 days than deep sedation alone. These results were un-expected, since the intervention was performed only for the first 2 days, yet the Kaplan–Meier survival curves were virtually superimposable for about 18 days before they separated. The reason for the lower mortality in the intervention group was uncertain, but it was thought to be because the use of cisatracurium led to decreased venti-lator-induced lung injury and biotrauma (i.e., the release of mediators in the lung and transloca-tion of these mediators into the systemic circu-lation).3,4 Perhaps because of this uncertainty, along with concerns about long-term neuromus-cular function after treatment with cisatracurium, the addition of a paralytic agent to a lung-pro-tection strategy was not widely adopted by the critical care community.
For these reasons, and because current clini-cal practice has changed since the ACURASYS trial was conducted, the Reevaluation of Sys-temic Early Neuromuscular Blockade (ROSE) trial was performed to reexamine the benefits of cisatracurium-induced paralysis in patients early after the onset of ARDS. Patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS were assigned either to a 48-hour continuous infusion of cisatracurium with deep
sedation or to a usual-care approach with light sedation and without routine neuromuscular blockade. The trial, the results of which are now reported in the Journal,5 was stopped early for futility. The results were markedly different from those of the ACURASYS trial. In the ROSE trial, there was no between-group difference in the number of patients with barotrauma, and mor-tality at 90 days was virtually identical in the two groups (42.5% of patients in the intervention group and 42.8% in the control group died).
Why should the results of two well-performed trials differ so greatly? As shown in Table 1, there were a number of differences between the trials that could plausibly explain the different results. However, we postulate that one of these factors — the difference in sedation levels — is the major reason. Many patients who are admit-ted to an intensive care unit receive some seda-tion to treat anxiety or agitation and to facilitate care. Deeper sedation is also often used when the patient is “fighting the ventilator” (so-called patient–ventilator dyssynchrony). Dyssynchrony is common during mechanical ventilation and is associated with prolonged duration of mechani-cal ventilation and increased mortality.6
In 2013, Akoumianaki et al.7 identified a pre-viously unrecognized form of dyssynchrony in patients with ARDS. They called this dyssyn-chrony reverse triggering, because a breath de-livered by the ventilator triggered a contraction of the diaphragm, which initiated a spontaneous breath — the reverse of what happens during assisted ventilation. Because the second breath can occur before a complete exhalation, the pa-tient can receive a much larger tidal volume (called breath stacking) than with the initial ven-

The incidence of ICU-acquired paresis, as evaluated on the basis of the MRC score on day 28 or at the time of ICU discharge, did not differ significantly between the two groups (Table 3).
Secondary Post Hoc OutcomeCorticosteroids were used during the ICU stay in 189 patients. There was no significant effect of cisatracurium use on the 90-day mortality in the subgroup of patients given corticosteroids (Fig. 6 in the Supplementary Appendix).
Ventilator Settings and Lung FunctionVentilator settings and lung-function variables dur-ing the first week are given in Table 7 in the Sup-plementary Appendix. On day 7, the PaO2:FiO2 ratio was higher, and the PaCO2 value lower, in the cisatracurium group than in the placebo group.
CointerventionsDuring the ICU stay, there were no significant between-group differences in the incidence of cointerventions. A total of 42% of patients in the cisatracurium group and 48% in the placebo group were treated with the use of prone positioning, inhaled nitric oxide, intravenous almitrine mesy-late, or a combination of these (Table 8 in the Sup-plementary Appendix). The criteria for using these interventions were the same in the two groups.
Open-label cisatracurium was given more fre-quently in the placebo group than in the cisatra-cu rium group during the first 48 hours after enrollment. However, the two groups did not dif-fer significantly with respect to the number of pa-tients given at least one open-label cisatracuri um bolus during the entire ICU stay after enrollment (Table 8 in the Supplementary Appendix). The re-quired dose of sedatives or analgesics was similar in the two groups during the first week of the study (Table 9 in the Supplementary Appendix).
SafetyBradycardia developed during the cisatracurium infusion in one patient. No other side effects were reported.
Discussion
Treatment with the neuromuscular blocking agent cisatracurium for 48 hours early in the course of severe ARDS improved the adjusted 90-day sur-vival rate, increased the numbers of ventilator-free days and days outside the ICU, and decreased
the incidence of barotrauma during the first 90 days. It did not significantly improve the overall 90-day mortality.
Strengths of this trial include the methods used to minimize bias (blinded randomization assign-ments, a well-defined study protocol, complete follow-up, and intention-to-treat analyses). The re-cruitment of a large number of patients from 20 multidisciplinary ICUs where international stan-dards of care are followed suggests that our data can be generalized to other ICUs.
Limitations of the trial include the fact that our results were obtained for cisatracurium bes-ylate and may not apply to other neuromuscular blocking agents. Furthermore, we did not assess the use of a neuromuscular blocking agent late in the course of ARDS or use on the basis of plateau-pressure or transpulmonary-pressure measure-ments.20 Another limitation is the absence of data on conditions known to antagonize or potentiate neuromuscular blockade. However, any condition that increases the duration of neuromuscular blockade would have adversely affected the patients receiving the neuromuscular blocking agent, in particular by increasing the duration of mechani-cal ventilation.
The sample-size calculation was based on our two previous studies performed in four ICUs13,15 that used the same inclusion criteria as were used in the current trial and on the European epidemio-logic study ALIVE.4 However, the mortality in the placebo group in this study (40.7%) is lower than

Asynchronies during mechanical ventilation are associated with mortality

study deals with a widely recognized clinical problem ofunknown magnitude.
The study also has potential limitations. This was apilot study with a limited power in 50 patients and wasnot designed to assess the effect of asynchrony on mor-tality. Moreover, the sample size was not calculated apriori because no data were available regarding the fre-quency of asynchronies during the entire MV period.Importantly, the study was confined to a single center andthe cohort consisted of a mixed population of medical andsurgical patients. As the incidence of asynchronies re-flects a center’s practice and expertise in ventilatorsettings, it might not be possible to extrapolate our resultsto other centers. Furthermore, unmeasured covariatessuch as patient factors (anxiety, dyspnea, ventilator drive,or neuromuscular status), different exposures to pain andsedative medication, and liberal selection of ventilatormode may have affected our results. Likewise, we cannotrule out the possibility that a specific MV mode, specificmachine type, or specific sedation strategy contributed topatient–ventilator asynchrony. Moreover, we did notstudy flow delivery problems during MV; whether flowmismatch is related to asynchronies remains unknown andwarrants future investigations. Furthermore, physiciansand nurses were aware of the nature of the study; how-ever, since the study was non-interventional and did notinterfere with usual patient care, we assume that patientsin this study received similar care to other patients in ourICU. Lastly, AI in VCV or PCV as compared to PSVcould be underestimated. By definition, no asynchronyoccurs during controlled ventilation in patients paralyzedor without spontaneous ventilation and asynchronies onlyappear after recovering spontaneous ventilation, even forreverse triggering. However, asynchronies can occurduring all periods of PSV and this could explain whyasynchronies were more frequent during PSV than duringVCV or PCV. We also excluded hours classified as CPAPor ‘‘other modes’’, in other words, hours in which patientsreceived ventilatory support in modes other than VCV,PCV, or PSV, hours in which the ventilatory mode wasmodified, and hours in which the system was unable todetermine the ventilatory mode. Therefore, we cannot
assess the impact of asynchronies that can develop in theroutine use of dual, proportional, and automated ventila-tion modes [38–40]. Since proportional modes couldpotentially lower the prevalence of asynchronies, disre-garding hours in those modes might overestimate theprevalence of asynchronies. However, it could also beargued that severe asynchrony might preclude correctventilatory mode detection.
The algorithm to detect short cycling and prolongedcycling has some limitations. In the context of alterationsof respiratory mechanics, the algorithm will identify shortcycling or prolonged cycling as an asynchrony only ac-cording to variations, half or double the inspiratory time(Ti) from the running mean of the previous 20 breaths. Inthe extreme case of alternating breaths of very short Titogether with breaths of prolonged Ti, such as in a one toone sequence, the algorithm will not detect short cyclingor prolonged cycling as asynchronies. This constitutes apotential major limitation of the algorithm’s performancein these circumstances.
The use of pneumatic signals provides information onasynchronies but precludes the understanding of the rela-tive differences in timing between neural output andventilatory activity, especially in patients with autoPEEP[41]. Although the measurement of esophageal pressure orelectrical activity of the diaphragm would have ensuredgreater accuracy in detecting all asynchronies [42], thenature of the present study precluded the application ofthese techniques to all patients. Therefore, we focused onthe asynchronies that can be easily identified and measuredby appropriate algorithms (aborted inspirations, short cy-cling, prolonged cycling, double-triggering, andautotriggering; see ESM) or mathematically validated al-gorithms that automatically detect IEE from airflowtracings in close agreement with experts and the EAdi [17].
Conclusions
In summary, we found that patient–ventilator asyn-chronies occur frequently, round the clock, and in the

low-dose cisatracurium groups) in the rocuronium groupwhile it remained unchanged in both cisatracurium groups(Fig. 3). There was an inverse correlation between dia-phragmatic MURF-1 mRNA expression and diaphragmtetanic force (r = –0.71, p = 0.0005) (Fig. 4). Similar corre-lations were present for the other stimulation frequencies(–0.71 < r < –0.42, p < 0.05) (data not shown).
Calpain activity in the diaphragm
The ratio of calpain-cleaved αII-spectrin to total αII-spectrin, a reliable marker of calpain activity [20], washigher in the diaphragm of the rocuronium group thanin all other groups (p < 0.05) while unchanged in bothcisatracurium groups (Fig. 5). An inverse correlation wasfound between the diaphragmatic tetanic force and theratio of cleaved to total αII-spectrin in the diaphragm(r = –0.49, p < 0.05). Diaphragm levels of the endogenouscalpain inhibitor calpastatin were similar among the fourgroups (51379 ± 3491 AU, pooled values).
DiscussionOverview of the principal findings
This study shows for the first time a direct comparison ofthe effects of two NMBAs with different chemical corestructure on the diaphragm. The data show that continuousinfusion of an aminosteroidal neuromuscular blockingagent (i.e. rocuronium) during the course of 24 h of CMVin rats is more deleterious for diaphragm force than con-tinuous infusion of a similar effective dose of a benzyliso-quinoline agent (i.e. cisatracurium). Even when the dose ofcisatracurium is increased, the effect on diaphragm force isless detrimental than that of rocuronium at lower effectivedose. Moreover, rocuronium increased the expressionof MURF-1 mRNA and the calpain activity in the dia-phragm, while there were no significant changes observedin the diaphragm of the rats treated with cisatracurium.These data suggest that the decreased diaphragm forceafter rocuronium infusion is the consequence of a directeffect of rocuronium on the muscle caused by an increasedmyofilament cleavage and proteolysis. It appears from ourdata that cisatracurium infusion during MV in rats is lessharmful for the diaphragm than rocuronium infusion.
Experimental model and clinical relevance
The same animal model as in our previous study wasused [13]. Electromyographic measurements confirmedthat diaphragm activity was silenced in the differ-ent groups. The effective doses of rocuronium andcisatracurium used in this study are comparable with those
