Abstract:

Objective To develop artificial airway resistance intelligent warning system to detect the secretions early for patients with mechanical ventilation,and explore its effect in improving the intervention rate of secretions and reducing the viscosity of artificial airway secretions. Methods In May 2022,we started to develop an artificial airway resistance intelligent early warning system based on Internet of Things technology to achieve closed-loop intelligent management of artificial airway secretion viscosity. From March to April 2023,it was applied in the Department of Internal intensive Care Medicine and the Department of Surgical Intensive Care Medicine of a tertiary class A hospital in Zhejiang Province. The intervention rate of artificial airway secretion and the viscosity rate of artificial airway secretion in patients with mechanical ventilation after the application of the system(March to April 2023) and before the application(March to April 2022) were compared. Results After the system application,the intervention rate of artificial airway secretion increased from 14.2% to 25.8%,and the viscosity rate of artificial airway secretion decreased from 45.3% to 24.5%,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Conclusion The application of intelligent early warning system of artificial airway resistance based on Internet of Things technology can improve the intervention rate of artificial airway secretion and reduce the viscosity of secretion.
