Abstract
OBJECTIVES
Mechanical ventilation tidal volumes are usually set according to an estimate of patient size in millilitres (ml) per kilogram (kg) body weight. We describe the relationship between donor–recipient lung-size mismatch and postoperative mechanical ventilation tidal volumes according to recipient- and donor-predicted body weights in a cohort of bilateral lung transplant patients.
METHODS
A most-undersized (10 patients with lowest predicted total lung capacity [pTLC] ratio = pTLC-donor/pTLC-recipient), a most-oversized (10 patients with highest pTLC ratio) and best-matched subset (10 patients with predicted total lung capacity ratio closest to 1.0) were selected within a cohort of 70 patients. All tidal volumes during mechanical ventilation in the first 96 h after bilateral lung transplantation were recorded. Tidal volumes were expressed in ml and ml/kg-recipient-predicted body weights and ml/kg-donor-predicted body weights.
RESULTS
Postoperative absolute tidal volumes (in ml) were comparable between subsets of patients with undersized, matched and oversized allografts (552 ± 103 vs 581 ± 107 vs 582 ± 104 ml), and tidal volumes in ml/kg-recipient-predicted body weights were also similar (8.8 ± 1.4 vs 9.3 ± 1.1 vs 9.8 ± 2.1). However, tidal volumes in ml/kg-donor-predicted body weights revealed significant differences between undersized, matched, and oversized subsets (11.4 ± 3.1 vs 9.4 ± 1.2 vs 8.1 ± 2.1, respectively; P < 0.05). Two patients developed primary graft dysfunction grade 3, both in the undersized subset. Four patients in the undersized group underwent tracheotomy (vs none in matched and one in oversized subset).
CONCLUSIONS
During mechanical ventilation after bilateral lung transplantation, undersized allografts received relatively higher tidal volumes compared with oversized allografts when the tidal volumes were related to donor-predicted body weights.

INTRODUCTION
Larger tidal volumes during mechanical ventilation may cause or amplify ventilator-induced lung injury [1, 2]. Tidal volumes are usually set according to an estimate of patient size in millilitres (ml) per kilogram (kg) body weight [1]. We describe the relationship between donor–recipient size mismatch and postoperative mechanical ventilation tidal volumes according to recipient- and donor-predicted body weights (predicted body weights, Supplementary Data E1A) after bilateral lung transplantation. We hypothesized that undersized allografts receive larger tidal volumes in ml/kg-donor-predicted body weights (Fig. 1).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The study population has been described previously [3]. We selected a most-undersized (10 patients with lowest predicted total lung capacity [pTLC] ratio = pTLC-donor/pTLC-recipient), a most-oversized (10 patients with highest pTLC ratio) and best-matched subset (10 patients with pTLC ratio closest to 1.0), Supplementary Data E1B. All tidal volumes during mechanical ventilation in the first 96 h after bilateral lung transplant patients were recorded (Supplementary Data E2). Tidal volumes were expressed in ml and ml/kg of recipient-predicted body weights and of ml/kg-donor-predicted body weights (Supplementary Data E1A) [1]. Mode of ventilation, fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), peak inspiratory pressure, positive end-expiratory pressure and plateau pressure were recorded. Driving pressure was calculated as the difference between peak inspiratory pressure and positive end-expiratory pressure. Dynamic compliance was calculated by dividing the tidal volumes by the driving pressure. Arterial blood gas results during the period of controlled mechanical ventilation were recorded and the PaO2/FiO2 ratio was calculated.
Perioperative care, postoperative complications and outcomes
Postoperative data included: length of stay (LOS); in-hospital infections; rejection episodes during index hospitalization; mechanical ventilation duration; reintubation; tracheostomy; acute kidney injury (AKI); renal replacement therapy; extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and in-hospital mortality. The Social Security Death Index was queried for survival status. Persisting atelectasis was defined as consolidation at the base of the recipient allograft and being still present after 1 week. Pleural complications included persistent pneumothorax (>1 cm and still present 1 week after lung transplant), at least moderate or large pleural effusion and empyema. Acute rejection was diagnosed according to the standard International Society of Heart and Lung Transplant criteria [4].
Resource utilization
Hospital charges were obtained and analysed as previously described [3].
Statistical analysis
Continuous variables are presented with the mean ± standard deviation (SD). Categorical variables are shown in whole numbers and percentages. All charge data and lung allocation scores (LAS) are presented as medians with Interquartile range (IQR), as these data were not normally distributed. Comparisons between groups were made with ANOVA one-way analysis or Fisher exact test as appropriate. The survival and occurrence of the bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method, and the log-rank test compared survival and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome between size-matching subsets. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Analysis was performed using JMP 9.0 (www.jmpdiscovery.com).
RESULTS
The pTLC ratios ranged from 0.63 to 0.92 (mean 0.80 ± 0.09) in most-undersized, 1.18–1.43 (mean 1.27 ± 0.10) in most-oversized and 0.97–1.04 (mean 0.99 ± 0.04) in best-matched patients, Table 1. The groups did not differ significantly in age or gender. The median lung allocation scores was significantly higher in the most-undersized group than in the best-matched and in the most-oversized group (47.6 IQR [42–75] vs 38.2 IQR [34–41] vs 36.5 IQR [33–41]). Patients in the most-undersized group more often required cardiopulmonary bypass. The standardized mode of mechanical ventilation after bilateral lung transplantation was pressure assist-control ventilation with a pressure control of ∼20 cm H2O (range 14–26, mean 20.7 ± 2.4) and positive end-expiratory pressure of ∼5 cm H2O (range 5–12, mean 8.4 ± 1.6), which did not differ significantly between subsets, Table 2. Absolute tidal volumes were comparable between most-undersized, best-matched and most-oversized subsets (552 ± 103 vs 581 ± 107 vs 582 ± 104), but there was a trend towards lower absolute tidal volumes in the most-undersized subset (P = 0.069 for most-undersized to most-oversized comparison). Expressing tidal volumes in ml/kg-predicted body weights for the recipient also showed comparable results (Fig. 1). However, there were significant differences in tidal volumes in ml/kg-predicted body weights for the donor between most-undersized, best-matched and most-oversized cohorts (11.4 ± 3.1 vs 9.4 ± 1.2 vs 8.1 ± 2.1, Fig. 2). The mean PaO2/FiO2 ratio for the most-oversized subset was significantly lower than that of the most-undersized and best-matched subsets (290 ± 89 vs 334 ± 89 and 367 ± 90, Table 2, (Fig. 3A). Dynamic compliance and driving pressures were similar between cohorts (Fig. 3B). The median duration of mechanical ventilation did not differ between most-undersized, best-matched and most-oversized subsets (37.5 IQR [25–131] vs 28 IQR [20–39] vs 35 IQR [29–44], Table 3). Two patients developed primary graft dysfunction grade 3, both in the most-undersized subset. Four patients in the most-undersized group underwent tracheostomy (vs none in best-matched and one in most-oversized subset). The median length of stay and charges did not differ statistically between the three groups. There were no deaths during the index hospitalization (Table 4). Two patients in the most-undersized group, one in the best-matched group and none in the most-oversized group died during the first year after transplantation.

DISCUSSION
During mechanical ventilation after bilateral lung transplant patients, undersized allografts received relatively higher tidal volumes compared with oversized allografts when the tidal volumes were related to donor predicted body weights.
The difference in tidal volumes between the most-undersized and the most-oversized group could have clinical importance. In patients with no prior lung injury who received mechanical ventilation during bypass for cardiac surgery, larger tidal volumes were associated with higher inflammatory mediator levels [5]. Larger tidal volumes were associated with the development of ARDS in patients who came to the ICU without ARDS, but had risk factors for ARDS [6]. In patients with ARDS, the ARDS-Network tidal volume trial demonstrated a survival benefit of low tidal volumes ventilation (target tidal volumes 6 vs 12 ml/kg-predicted body weights) [1]. In the ARDS-Network trial, low tidal volumes ventilation was associated with a lower PaO2/FiO2 ratio on Days 1 and 3, which was similarly seen in the most-oversized cohort. In a randomized controlled trial comparing a low tidal volumes with a standard donor ventilation strategy, a significantly higher proportion of donor lungs could be utilized from the low tidal volumes group [7]. If a lower tidal volumes approach is protective before transplantation, the same may be true after transplantation. A study reported a higher risk of developing early allograft failure in recipients of undersized allografts, suggesting that hyperinflation of the allograft during mechanical ventilation was injurious [8]. In another study, recipients of undersized allografts were more likely to experience primary graft dysfunction [3]. This investigation has several limitations. It was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data at a single centre that examined a small patient population at the extremes of lung-size mismatch. Patients were ventilated using pressure assist-control ventilation. The undersized cohort allografts were probably smaller in size than the best-matched and oversized allografts, and thus could have had lower lung compliance and higher airway resistance. This could have protected the undersized lungs from excessive tidal volumes during pressure assist-control ventilation, as the mean driving pressures were comparable between groups. There was a trend towards lower absolute tidal volumes in the most-undersized group. If volume assist-control is used instead of pressure assist-control ventilation, and if the tidal volumes are set according to recipient body weight, the problem with tidal volumes to donor lung-size mismatch may be greater. The higher acuity and complexity of the most-undersized patients likely explain the differences in outcomes between groups. The pTLC ratio as a marker of allograft–thorax mismatch is imprecise. The pTLC is calculated via regression equations based on sex and height and is derived from population norms. The donor's pTLC is likely reflective of the allograft size. However, the recipient's pTLC might not accurately reflect the thorax size of a patient with end-stage lung disease of different aetiologies. Techniques such as optoelectronic plethysmography or computed tomography volumetry could provide more precise measurements [9]. Haemodynamic compromise during the period of mechanical ventilation in the early post-transplant phase could occur in the setting of a profoundly oversized allograft secondary to a compartment-syndrome-like picture occurring after chest wall closure. This is often recognized at the time of chest wall closure, and when present, an approach of delayed chest wall closure is often chosen. An open chest during the period of mechanical ventilation after lung transplant would significantly affect the airway pressures needed to achieve a goal tidal volume. However, none of the patients included in this study required delayed chest wall closure.
The clinical significance of the differences in tidal volumes expressed relative to donor characteristics remains unanswered by this study. The optimal strategy for mechanical ventilation after bilateral lung transplantation remains unclear and deserves further investigation.
