Volume‐targeted versus pressure‐limited ventilation in the neonate

Protocol

https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD003666

Differences between protocol and review

The original protocol limited PLV to time‐cycled modes. In view of development of modern PLV modes that may be flow cycled (e.g. PSV mode with the Draeger Babylog Plus ventilator), we have chosen to include all trials comparing VTV with PLV, independent of PLV being provided in a time‐cycled or flow‐cycled manner.

The following subgroup analysis was performed, which was not specified in the initial protocol.

  • Subgroup analysis for strict versus hybrid trial designs, within Analyses 1 and 2 where applicable.

The following outcomes included above were not included in the original protocol for this review.

We also added the methodology and plan for 'Summary of findings' tables and GRADE recommendations, which were not included in the original protocol or previous versions of the review.

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

*The risk in the intervention group (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).

BPD: bronchopulmonary dysplasia; CI: confidence interval; IVH: intraventricular haemorrhage; MD: mean difference; PLV: pressure‐limited ventilation; PVL: periventricular leukomalacia; RCT: randomised controlled trial; RR: risk ratio; VTV: volume‐targeted ventilation.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect.
Moderate quality: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different.
Low quality: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of the effect.
Very low quality: We have very little confidence in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be substantially different from the estimate of effect.

*The risk in the intervention group (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).

BPD: bronchopulmonary dysplasia; CI: confidence interval; IPPV: intermittent positive pressure ventilation; IVH: intraventricular haemorrhage; MD: mean difference; pCO2: partial pressure of carbon dioxide; PLV: pressure‐limited ventilation; PVL: periventricular leukomalacia; RCT: randomised controlled trial; RR: risk ratio; VTV: volume‐targeted ventilation.

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: We are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect.
Moderate quality: We are moderately confident in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be close to the estimate of the effect, but there is a possibility that it is substantially different.
Low quality: Our confidence in the effect estimate is limited: The true effect may be substantially different from the estimate of the effect.
Very low quality: We have very little confidence in the effect estimate: The true effect is likely to be substantially different from the estimate of effect.
