Background and Objectives: N-acetylcysteine is an antioxidant derived from the amino acid cysteine and is one of the drugs used in the treatment of respiratory diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of N-acetylcysteine on the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome in mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
Methods: This study was a randomized clinical trial. Patients under mechanical ventilation admitted to the intensive care unit were examined. Patients in the intervention group received 150 mg/kg of NAC drug internally. Intravenously received on the first day of hospitalization and then 50 mg/kg on the first to fourth days. Patients in the control group will receive routine care. The vital signs, level of consciousness of patients, and another important variable were recorded. Data were analyzed using statistical tests and SPSS software version 24.
Results: There was no significant difference between MAP, heart rate, respiratory rate, O2Sat, APACHE II score and pulmonary capacity of patients in the two groups on the first, second, third and fourth days after the intervention (P>0.05 ). There was no significant difference between level of consciousness (according to GCS criteria), respiratory index (PAO2/FIO2) and PEEP of patients in the two study groups within 1 to 2 days after the intervention (P>0.05). There was a significant difference between level of consciousness (based on GCS criteria), respiratory index (PAO2/FIO2) and PEEP of patients in the two study groups within 3 to 4 days after the intervention (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the duration of hospitalization in the ICU, the time required for mechanical ventilation and the mortality rate of patients in the two groups (P>0.05).
Conclusion: It seems that N-acetylcysteine has a positive effect on the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome in mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the intensive care unit.

چکیده
هدف: داروی ان استیل سیستئین به عنوان یک آنتی اکسیدان مشتقی از اسید آمینه ی سیستئین است و از جمله داروهایی است که در درمان بیماری های تنفسی مورد استفاده قرار می گیرد. هدف از انجام این مطالعه، بررسی تاثیر ان استیل سیستئین بر درمان سندروم دیسترس تنفسی حاد در بیماران تحت تهویه ی مکانیکی بستری در بخش مراقبت های ویژه بیمارستان امام خمینی (ره) اهواز، در سال 1399 است.
روش کار: این مطالعه از نوع کارآزمایی بالینی است. دراین مطالعه بیماران بیماران تحت تهویه ی مکانیکی بستری در بخش مراقبت های ویژه بیمارستان امام خمینی (ره) اهواز، در سال 1399 بررسی شدند، بیماران گروه مداخله علاوه بر مراقبت های روتین، به میزان 150 میلی گرم بر کیلوگرم داروی NAC بصورت داخل وریدی در روز اول بستری و سپس 50 میلی گرم بر کیلوگرم در روزهای دوم تا چهارم ، دریافت کرد.ند بیماران گروه کنترل تحت مراقبت های روتین خواهند بود. علاوه بر علائم حیاتی و سطح هوشیاری بیماران، ایندکس تنفسی (PAO2/FIO2)، میزان PEEP مورد نیاز جهت تهویه مکانیکی موثر، نمره ی APACHE II، مدت زمان بستری در ICU، مدت زمان مورد نیاز جهت تهویه مکانیکی، میزان مرگ و میر و ظرفیت ریوی بیماران هر دو گروه، در طول دوره 4 روزه مطالعه و ثبت شد. داده ها با استفاده از آزمون های آماری و نرم افزار SPSS ویرایش 22 تجزیه و تحلیل گردید.
نتایج: بین فشار خون متوسط شریانی، ضربان قلب، تعداد تنفس، ﺩﺭﺻد ﺍﺷﺒﺎﻉ ﺍﻛﺴﻴﮋﻥ، نمره APACHE II و ظرفیت ریوی بیماران در 2 گروه مورد مطالعه در روز اول، دوم، سوم و چهارم بعد از مداخله تفاوت معناداری وجود ندارد (0.05
P). بین مدت زمان بستری در ICU، مدت زمان مورد نیاز جهت تهویه مکانیکی و میزان مرگ و میر بیماران در 2 گروه مورد مطالعه تفاوت معناداری وجود ندارد (0.05

There was no significant difference between level of consciousness (according to GCS criteria), respiratory index (PAO2/FIO2) and PEEP of patients in the two study groups within 1 to 2 days after the intervention (P>0.05). There was a significant difference between level of consciousness (based on GCS criteria), respiratory index (PAO2/FIO2) and PEEP of patients in the two study groups within 3 to 4 days after the intervention (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the duration of hospitalization in the ICU, the time required for mechanical ventilation and the mortality rate of patients in the two groups (P>0.05).
