Acute Kidney Injury, Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Intra-Abdominal Hypertension, Prone Position

Brief summary

Patients suffering from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) with a prone position (PP) indication will benefit from measurements of renal resistive index, intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), urinary oxygen tension (uPO2) and ventilatory mechanics in supine position (baseline IAP), after 2 hours in PP at the current IAP value, thirty minutes after patients' abdomen suspension in order to resume baseline IAP and after patients' are turned back to supine position.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
change in renal resistive index (RRI)At inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuverRRI measurement will be performed on a right kidney arcuate/interlobar artery, with a high frequency Doppler probe. Three to five consecutive measures will be obtained then RRI computed according to the formula: (peak systolic velocity - end diastolic velocity)/peak systolic velocity).

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
ventilatory mechanics: transpulmonary pressureAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuvertranspulmonary pressure will be measured at the end of inspiration and expiration and continuously recorded on a datalogger
ventilatory mechanics: driving pressureAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuverdriving pressure will be measured at the end of inspiration and expiration and continuously recorded on a datalogger
ventilatory mechanics: elastanceAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuverelastance will be measured at the end of inspiration and expiration and continuously recorded on a datalogger
haematosisAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuverarterial oxygen tension (PaO2) and arterial dioxide carbon tension (PaC02)
Intra abdominal pressureAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuver and two hours after patients are back in supine positionIntra abdominal pressure will be measured thanks to a dedicated nasogastric tube with two balloons (gastric pressure)
Persisting effect of IAP increase in prone position when patients are back in supine position on renal resistive indexTwo hours after patients are back in supine positionRRI measurement will be performed on a right kidney arcuate/interlobar artery, with a high frequency Doppler probe. Three to five consecutive measures will be obtained then RRI computed according to the formula: (peak systolic velocity - end diastolic velocity)/peak systolic velocity).
change in renal medullary oxygen tensionAt inclusion (in supine position), two hours after prone positioning, 30-minutes after the abdomen suspension maneuverurinary oxygen tension (uPO₂) will be measured via a fiber-optic luminescence optode inserted through the bladder catheter lumen
