RESUMO

Background: Manual hyperinflation (MH) is a common technique used for removing pulmonary secretions in ICU and theoretically should be performed with a slow inflation. Many Brazilian respiratory therapists do not perform the maneuver with a slow inflation and manual resuscitators (MR) made in Brazil have pressure relief valve (PRV) which in many of them cannot be closed to perform MH. Objectives: evaluate, in a lung model, the influence on tidal volume, inspiratory and expiratory peak flow, proximal and alveolar pressures of MH performed by eight Brazilian respiratory therapists using two types of MR (with and without pressure relief valve), in two manners [like clinical practice (CP) and after orientation to perform MH with a slow inflation, named literature recommended (LR)] and in three clinical simulated scenarios (normal, restrictive and obstructive patient). Results: Six of 8 respiratory therapists performed MH with two or more inflation. After instruction proximal pressure generated was lower because of the slower inspiratory peak flow. The alveolar pressure values were lesser than 42.5 cmH2O (median = 13.9; interquartile range: 10.2-20.3), despite of high proximal pressure (max 96.6 cmH2O, median 31.4; 19.2-44.8). Inspiratory tidal volume were smaller than other reports (median=514mL; 410-641). Inspiratory peak flow (1.32; 0.92- 1.80) were higher than expiratory (0.88; 0.54-1.13) in almost all measurement. Expiratory peak flow was correlated with tidal volume: for each scenario, the low expiratory peak flow was mainly generated by small tidal volume. Pressures, volumes and flows were lower with MR that uses PRV. Conclusion: In this small sample of respiratory therapists, MH was done different that literature recommends; MR whit pressure limiting system generate lower tidal volume, pressures and peak pressures in most scenarios; proximal pressure generated not determine, necessarily, risk for patient, because alveolar pressure was maintained low
