Abstract
With increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, multimorbid patients have become commonplace in the neurosurgical intensive care unit (neuro-ICU), offering unique management challenges. By reducing physiological reserve and interacting with one another, chronic comorbidities pose a greatly enhanced risk of major postoperative medical complications, especially cardiopulmonary complications, which ultimately exert a negative impact on neurosurgical outcomes. These premises underscore the importance of perioperative optimization, in turn requiring a thorough preoperative risk stratification, a basic understanding of a multimorbid patient’s deranged physiology and a proper appreciation of the potential of surgery, anesthesia and neurocritical care interventions to exacerbate comorbid pathophysiologies. This knowledge enables neurosurgeons, neuroanesthesiologists and neurointensivists to function with a heightened level of vigilance in the care of these high-risk patients and can inform the perioperative neuro-ICU management with individualized strategies able to minimize the risk of untoward outcomes. This review highlights potential pitfalls in the intra- and postoperative neuro-ICU period, describes common preoperative risk stratification tools and discusses tailored perioperative ICU management strategies in multimorbid neurosurgical patients, with a special focus on approaches geared toward the minimization of postoperative cardiopulmonary complications and unplanned reintubation.

Lee JH, Kwon YL, Na JH, Jang YE, Kim EH, Kim HS, Kim JT. Is dynamic arterial elastance a predictor of an increase in blood pressure after fluid administration in pediatric patients with hypotension? Reanalysis of prospective observational studies. Paediatr Anaesth 2020; 30:34-42. [PMID: 31730254 DOI: 10.1111/pan.13769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2019] [Revised: 10/03/2019] [Accepted: 11/12/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dynamic arterial elastance (Eadyn ) has been proposed to predict an increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) after volume expansion in hypotensive adults. We aimed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of Eadyn as a predictor of arterial pressure response after fluid loading in pediatric patients with hypotension. METHODS We re-analyzed data of 63 hypotensive children (age, ≤5 years), collected from three previous prospective observational studies about fluid responsiveness. Pulse pressure variation (PPV), stroke volume variation (SVV), and respiratory variation in aortic blood flow velocity (ΔVpeak) were used to calculate Eadyn (PPV/SVV) and modified Eadyn (PPV/ΔVpeak). Preload-dependent patients were defined as those with ΔVpeak ≥12% before fluid loading. Patients were classified as pressure responders, if their MAP increased ≥15% after fluid administration. RESULTS Mean Eadyn (SD) was 1.06 (0.47) in pressure responders (n=39) and 0.99 (0.48) in nonresponders (n = 24) (mean difference, 0.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], -0.19-0.34; P = .567). Additionally, mean modified Eadyn was 1.27 (0.64) in responders and 1.11 (0.43) in nonresponders (mean difference, 0.17; 95% CI, -0.13-0.46; P = 0.269). Both Eadyn (AUC 0.506; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.337 to 0.675; P = 0.948) and modified Eadyn (AUC 0.498; 95% CI, 0.328-0.669; P = 0.983), as well as other dynamic variables, could not predict pressure responsiveness in children. Sub-group analysis revealed similar findings in both in 39 preload-dependent and hypotensive patients (26 pressure responders and 13 nonpressure responders). CONCLUSION Both Eadyn and modified Eadyn cannot predict whether blood pressure increases with fluid administration in pediatric patients with hypotension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulse pressure variation (PPV) can be used to predict fluid responsiveness in anesthetized patients receiving controlled mechanical ventilation but usually requires dedicated advanced monitoring. Capstesia (Galenic App, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain) is a novel smartphone application that calculates PPV and cardiac output (CO) from a picture of the invasive arterial pressure waveform obtained from any monitor screen. The primary objective was to compare the ability of PPV obtained using the Capstesia (PPVCAP) and PPV obtained using a pulse contour analysis monitor (PPVPC) to predict fluid responsiveness. A secondary objective was to assess the agreement and the trending of CO values obtained with the Capstesia (COCAP) against those obtained with the transpulmonary bolus thermodilution method (COTD). METHODS We studied 57 mechanically ventilated patients (tidal volume 8 mL/kg, positive end-expiratory pressure 5 mm Hg, respiratory rate adjusted to keep end tidal carbon dioxide [32-36] mm Hg) undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting. COTD, COCAP, PPVCAP, and PPVPC were measured before and after infusion of 5 mL/kg of a colloid solution. Fluid responsiveness was defined as an increase in COTD of >10% from baseline. The ability of PPVCAP and PPVPC to predict fluid responsiveness was analyzed using the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUROC), the agreement between COCAP and COTD using a Bland-Altman analysis and the trending ability of COCAP compared to COTD after volume expansion using a 4-quadrant plot analysis. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients were studied before surgical incision and 29 after sternal closure. There was no significant difference in the ability of PPVCAP and PPVPC to predict fluid responsiveness (AUROC 0.74 [95% CI, 0.60-0.84] vs 0.68 [0.54-0.80]; P = .30). A PPVCAP >8.6% predicted fluid responsiveness with a sensitivity of 73% (95% CI, 0.54-0.92) and a specificity of 74% (95% CI, 0.55-0.90), whereas a PPVPC >9.5% predicted fluid responsiveness with a sensitivity of 62% (95% CI, 0.42-0.88) and a specificity of 74% (95% CI, 0.48-0.90). When measured before surgery, PPV predicted fluid responsiveness (AUROC PPVCAP = 0.818 [P = .0001]; PPVPC = 0.794 [P = .0007]) but not when measured after surgery (AUROC PPVCAP = 0.645 [P = .19]; PPVPC = 0.552 [P = .63]). A Bland-Altman analysis of COCAP and COTD showed a mean bias of 0.3 L/min (limits of agreement: -2.8 to 3.3 L/min) and a percentage error of 60%. The concordance rate, corresponding to the proportion of CO values that changed in the same direction with the 2 methods, was poor (71%, 95% CI, 66-77). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing cardiac surgery, PPVCAP and PPVPC both weakly predict fluid responsiveness. However, COCAP is not a good substitute for COTD and cannot be used to assess fluid responsiveness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Identifying fluid responsiveness is critical to optimizing perfusion while preventing fluid overload. An experimental study of hypovolemic shock resuscitation showed the importance of ventricular compliance and peripheral venous pressure (PVP) on fluid responsiveness. The authors tested the hypothesis that reduced ventricular compliance measured using transesophageal echocardiography results in decreased fluid responsiveness after a fluid bolus. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Two-center, university hospital study. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 29 patients undergoing elective coronary revascularization. INTERVENTION Albumin 5%, 7 mL/kg, was infused over 10 minutes to characterize fluid responders (>15% increase in stroke volume) from nonresponders. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Invasive hemodynamics and the ratio of mitral inflow velocity (E-wave)/annular relaxation (e'), or E/e' ratio, were measured using transesophageal echocardiography to assess left ventricular (LV) compliance at baseline and after albumin infusion. Fifteen patients were classified as responders and 14 as nonresponders. The E/e' ratio in responders was 7.4 ± 1.9 at baseline and 7.1 ± 1.8 after bolus. In contrast, E/e' was significantly higher in nonresponders at baseline (10.7 ± 4.6; p = 0.04) and further increased after bolus (12.6 ± 5.5; p = 0.002). PVP was significantly greater in the nonresponders at baseline (14 ± 4 mmHg v 11 ± 3 mmHg; p = 0.02) and increased in both groups after albumin infusion. Fluid responsiveness was tested using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and was 0.74 for the E/e' ratio (95% confidence interval 0.55-0.93; p = 0.029) and 0.72 for the PVP (95% confidence interval 0.52-0.92; p = 0.058). CONCLUSION Fluid responders had normal LV compliance and lower PVP at baseline. In contrast, nonresponders had reduced LV compliance, which worsened after fluid bolus. E/e,' more than PVP, may be a useful clinical index to predict fluid responsiveness.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the intraoperative initiation and feasibility of a modified NIH-NHLBI ARDS Network Mechanical Ventilation Protocol (mARDSNet protocol) in septic patients with severe ARDS. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective observational study included consecutive adult septic patients with severe ARDS who underwent emergency abdominal surgery prior to intensive care unit (ICU) admission. The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge and at 90 days. Secondary outcomes were intraoperative adverse events and ICU length of stay. RESULTS Seven patients were included. A statistically significant difference in lung compliance [ε=0.150, F(1.053, 3.158)=31.098, p=0.010] and driving pressure [ε=0.263, F(1.844, 5.532)=7.042, p=0.031] was observed with time, while plateau pressure did not changed significantly during surgery [ε=0.322, F(2.256, 6.769)=1.920, p=0.219]. Also, PEEP values were constantly increased during surgery [ε=0.252, F(1.766, 5.297)=9.994, p=0.017], with the highest values being observed towards to the end of the procedure. No intraoperative adverse events were observed. Mean (±SD) ICU length of stay was 10.43 (±2.64) days, while all patients survived to hospital discharge and at 90 days. CONCLUSIONS The intraoperative implementation of our mARDSNet protocol is feasible and may increase the survival of septic patients with severe ARDS if initiated prior to ICU admission.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a national shortage of organs available for transplantation, and utilization rates for thoracic organs are less than 40%. In addition, the optimal method of assessing cardiovascular status during donor management is uncertain. FloTrac is a noninvasive hemodynamic technique that measures cardiac output and fluid responsiveness. Our objective was to measure the impact of using this technique to guide management on fluid balance, vasopressor usage, thyroid hormone usage, and pulmonary function. We hypothesized that FloTrac guidance will increase thoracic organs transplanted per donor (OTPD). METHODS Data were prospectively collected on a convenience sample of 38 donors after neurologic determination of death. Organs transplanted, net fluid balance, dosage of vasopressors, dosage of thyroid hormone, and Pao2:Fio2 were compared between treatment and control groups. RESULTS The treatment group had greater thoracic OTPD (1.3 [1.0] vs 0.4 [0.6], P = .004) and overall OTPD (4.3 [1.5] vs 2.7 [1.5], P = .002). Donors in the treatment group maintained a neutral fluid balance, had more thyroid hormone used, and had an improvement in oxygenation. CONCLUSION The implementation of this technology to aid providers may help ameliorate the shortage of thoracic and overall organs available for transplantation.

Abstract
The assessment and optimization of cardiovascular and hemodynamic variables is a mainstay of patient management in the care for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) or the operating room (OR). It is, therefore, of outstanding importance to meticulously validate technologies for hemodynamic monitoring and to study their applicability in clinical practice and, finally, their impact on treatment decisions and on patient outcome. In this regard, the Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing (JCMC) is an ideal platform for publishing research in the field of cardiovascular and hemodynamic monitoring. In this review, we highlight papers published last year in the JCMC in order to summarize and discuss recent developments in this research area.
