Prevalence and prognostic relevance of invasive fungal disease during veno-arterial ECMO: A retrospective single-center study. J Crit Care 2024; 83:154831. [PMID: 38797056 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2024.154831] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the prevalence and relevance of invasive fungal disease (IFD) during veno-arterial (V-A) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). METHODS Retrospective analysis from January 2013 to November 2023 of adult V-A ECMO cases at a German University Hospital. Parameters relating to IFD, demographics, length of stay (LoS), days on ECMO and mechanical ventilation, prognostic scores and survival were assessed. Multivariable logistic regression analyses with IFD and death as dependent variables were performed. Outcome was assessed after propensity score matching IFD-patients to non-IFD-controls. RESULTS 421 patients received V-A ECMO. 392 patients with full electronic datasets were included. The prevalence of IFD, invasive candidiasis and probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis was 4.6%, 3.8% and 1.0%. Severity of acute disease, pre-existing moderate-to-severe renal disease and continuous kidney replacement therapy were predictive of IFD. In-hospital mortality (94% (17/18) compared to 67% (252/374) in non-IFD patients (p = 0.0156)) was predicted by female sex, SOFA score at admission, SAVE score and IFD (for IFD: OR: 8.31; CI: 1.60-153.18; p: 0.044). There was no difference in outcome after matching IFD-cases to non-IFD-controls. CONCLUSIONS IFD are detected in about one in 20 patients on V-A ECMO, indicating mortality >90%. However, IFD do not contribute to prognosis in this population.

Abstract
The management of cardiogenic shock is an ongoing challenge. Despite all efforts and tremendous use of resources, mortality remains high. Whilst reversing the underlying cause, restoring/maintaining organ perfusion and function are cornerstones of management. The presence of comorbidities and preexisting organ dysfunction increases management complexity, aiming to integrate the needs of vital organs in each individual patient. This review provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary literature regarding the definition and classification of cardiogenic shock, its pathophysiology, diagnosis, laboratory evaluation, and monitoring. Further, we distill the latest evidence in pharmacologic therapy and the use of mechanical circulatory support including recently published randomized-controlled trials as well as future directions of research, integrating this within an international group of authors to provide a global perspective. Finally, we explore the need for individualization, especially in the face of neutral randomized trials which may be related to a dilution of a potential benefit of an intervention (i.e., average effect) in this heterogeneous clinical syndrome, including the use of novel biomarkers, artificial intelligence, and machine learning approaches to identify specific endotypes of cardiogenic shock (i.e., subclasses with distinct underlying biological/molecular mechanisms) to support a more personalized medicine beyond the syndromic approach of cardiogenic shock.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of the review is to summarize recent research on metabolic support during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. In this review, we cover the evidence on nutritional supplementation, both the route of supplementation, timing of initiation of supplementation as well as quantities of supplementation needed. In addition, we discuss the recent trend in awake extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and its benefits to patients. RECENT FINDINGS As ECMO use continues to increase over the last few years, for both cardiovascular as well as respiratory failure, the need to optimize the metabolic states of patients has arisen. Increasing evidence has pointed towards this hitherto unexplored domain of patient care having a large impact on outcomes. Additionally, strategies such as awake ECMO for select patients has allowed them to preserve muscle mass which could aid in a faster recovery. SUMMARY There is a role of optimal metabolic support in the early recovery of patients on ECMO that is currently under-recognized. Future directions of research that aim to improve post ECMO outcomes must focus on this area.

Acute brain injury risk prediction models in venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients with tree-based machine learning: An Extracorporeal Life Support Organization Registry analysis. JTCVS OPEN 2024; 20:64-88. [PMID: 39296456 PMCID: PMC11405982 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjon.2024.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/21/2024]
Abstract
Objective We aimed to determine if machine learning can predict acute brain injury and to identify modifiable risk factors for acute brain injury in patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Methods We included adults (age ≥18 years) receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation in the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization Registry (2009-2021). Our primary outcome was acute brain injury: central nervous system ischemia, intracranial hemorrhage, brain death, and seizures. We used Random Forest, CatBoost, LightGBM, and XGBoost machine learning algorithms (10-fold leave-1-out cross-validation) to predict and identify features most important for acute brain injury. We extracted 65 total features: demographics, pre-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation/on-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation laboratory values, and pre-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation/on-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation settings. Results Of 35,855 patients receiving venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (nonextracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation) (median age of 57.8 years, 66% were male), 7.7% (n = 2769) experienced acute brain injury. In venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (nonextracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation), the area under the receiver operator characteristic curves to predict acute brain injury, central nervous system ischemia, and intracranial hemorrhage were 0.67, 0.67, and 0.62, respectively. The true-positive, true-negative, false-positive, false-negative, positive, and negative predictive values were 33%, 88%, 12%, 67%, 18%, and 94%, respectively, for acute brain injury. Longer extracorporeal membrane oxygenation duration, higher 24-hour extracorporeal membrane oxygenation pump flow, and higher on-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation partial pressure of oxygen were associated with acute brain injury. Of 10,775 patients receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (median age of 57.1 years, 68% were male), 16.5% (n = 1787) experienced acute brain injury. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curves for acute brain injury, central nervous system ischemia, and intracranial hemorrhage were 0.72, 0.73, and 0.69, respectively. Longer extracorporeal membrane oxygenation duration, older age, and higher 24-hour extracorporeal membrane oxygenation pump flow were associated with acute brain injury. Conclusions In the largest study predicting neurological complications with machine learning in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, longer extracorporeal membrane oxygenation duration and higher 24-hour pump flow were associated with acute brain injury in nonextracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Abstract
The use of extracorporeal circulatory support, both for cardiogenic shock and during resuscitation, still presents many unanswered questions. The inclusion and exclusion criteria for such a resource-intensive treatment must be clearly defined, considering that these criteria are directly associated with the type and location of treatment. For example, it is worth questioning the viability of an extracorporeal resuscitation program in areas where it is impossible to achieve low-flow times under 60 min due to local limitations. Additionally, the best approach for further treatment, including whether it is necessary to regularly relieve the left ventricle, must be explored. To find answers to some of these questions, large-scale, multicenter, randomized studies and registers must be performed. Until then this treatment must be carefully considered before use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the high workload of cardiac intensive care unit (ICU), there is a paucity of evidence on the association between nurse workforce and mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS). This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of the ICU nursing grade on mortality and cost-effectiveness in CS. METHODS A nationwide analysis was performed using the K-NHIS database. Patients diagnosed with CS and admitted to the ICU at tertiary hospitals were enrolled. ICU nursing grade was defined according to the bed-to-nurse ratio: grade1 (bed-to-nurse ratio < 0.5), grade2 (0.5 ≤ bed-to-nurse ratio < 0.63), and grade3 (0.63 ≤ bed-to-nurse ratio < 0.77) or above. The primary endpoint was in-hospital mortality. Cost-effective analysis was also performed. RESULTS Of the 72,950 patients with CS, 27,216 (37.3%) were in ICU nursing grade 1, 29,710 (40.7%) in grade 2, and 16,024 (22.0%) in grade ≥ 3. The adjusted-OR for in-hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients with grade 2 (grade 1 vs. grade 2, 30.6% vs. 37.5%, adjusted-OR 1.14, 95% CI1.09-1.19) and grade ≥ 3 (40.6%) with an adjusted-OR of 1.29 (95% CI 1.23-1.36) than those with grade 1. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of grade1 compared with grade 2 and ≥ 3 was $25,047/year and $42,888/year for hospitalization and $5151/year and $5269/year for 1-year follow-up, suggesting that grade 1 was cost-effective. In subgroup analysis, the beneficial effects of the high-intensity nursing grade on mortality were more prominent in patients who received CPR or multiple vasopressors usage. CONCLUSIONS For patients with CS, ICU grade 1 with a high-intensity nursing staff was associated with reduced mortality and more cost-effectiveness during hospitalization compared to grade 2 and grade ≥ 3, and its beneficial effects were more pronounced in subjects at high risk of CS.

Age and associated outcomes among patients receiving venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for acute respiratory failure: analysis of the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization registry. Intensive Care Med 2024; 50:395-405. [PMID: 38376515 DOI: 10.1007/s00134-024-07343-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) can be used to support patients with refractory acute respiratory failure, though guidance on patient selection is lacking. While age is commonly utilized as a factor in establishing the potential VV-ECMO candidacy of these patients, little is known regarding its association with outcome. We studied the association between increasing patient age and outcomes among patients with acute respiratory failure receiving VV-ECMO. METHODS In this registry-based cohort study, we used individual patient data from 144 centres. We included adult patients (≥ 18 years of age) receiving VV-ECMO from 2017 to 2022. The primary outcome was hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included a composite of complications following initiation of VV-ECMO. We conducted Bayesian analyses to estimate the association between chronological age and outcomes. RESULTS We included 27,811 patients receiving VV-ECMO. Of these, 11,533 (41.5%) died in hospital. For the analysis conducted using weakly informed priors, and as compared to the reference category of age 18-29, the age brackets of 30-39 (odds ratio [OR] 1.17, 95% credible interval [CrI] 1.06-1.31), 40-49 (OR 1.65, 95% CrI 1.49-1.82), 50-59 (OR 2.39, 95% CrI 2.16-2.61), 60-69 (OR 3.29, 95% CrI 2.97-3.67), 70-79 (OR 4.57, 95% CrI 3.90-5.37), and ≥ 80 (OR 8.08, 95% CrI 4.85-13.74) were independently associated with increasing hospital mortality. Similar results were found between increasing age and post-ECMO complications. CONCLUSIONS Among patients receiving VV-ECMO for acute respiratory failure, increasing age is significantly associated with poorer outcomes, and this association emerges as early as 30 years of age.
