Abstract
Haemorrhagic shock after trauma is a leading cause of death worldwide, particularly in young individuals. Despite advances in trauma systems and resuscitation strategies, mortality from haemorrhagic shock has not declined over the previous two decades. A proportion of shocked trauma patients may experience a deficiency of cortisol relative to the severity of their injury. The benefit of exogenous steroid administration in patients suffering haemorrhagic shock as a result of injury is unclear. A systematic review of four databases (Ovid Medline, Ovid Embase, Cochrane, Scopus) was undertaken. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were pre-determined and two reviewers independently screened the articles with disagreements arbitrated by a third reviewer. The primary outcome variable was 28-day mortality. Quality of studies were assessed using the Cochrane-risk-of-bias (RoB 2) tool. Of the 2919 studies yielded by the search strategy, 1274 duplicates were removed and 1645 screened on title and abstract. After the full text of 33 studies were assessed, two articles were included. Both studies were over 30 years old with small numbers of participants and with primary outcomes not including mortality. Of the data available, no statistically significant difference in mortality was detected. Hospital length of stay, reversal of shock or adverse events were not reported. Both studies were at risk of bias. There are no high quality or recent studies in the English literature investigating the use of steroids for haemorrhagic shocked trauma patients. PROSPERO: CRD42021239656.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) induces instant activation of innate immunity in brain tissue, followed by a systematization of the inflammatory response. The subsequent response, evolved to limit an overwhelming systemic inflammatory response and to induce healing, involves the autonomic nervous system, hormonal systems, and the regulation of immune cells. This physiological response induces an immunosuppression and tolerance state that promotes to the occurrence of secondary infections. This review describes the immunological consequences of TBI and highlights potential novel therapeutic approaches using immune modulation to restore homeostasis between the nervous system and innate immunity.

Abstract
AbstractCritical illness refers to the clinical signs of severe, variable and life-threatening critical conditions, often accompanied by insufficiency or failure of one or more organs. Bone health of critically ill patients is severely affected during and after ICU admission. Therefore, clinical work should focus on ICU-related bone loss, and early development and implementation of related prevention and treatment strategies: optimized and personalized nutritional support (high-quality protein, trace elements and intestinal prebiotics) and appropriate physiotherapy and muscle training should be implemented as early as possible after ICU admission and discharge. At the same time, the drug regulates excessive metabolism and resists osteoporosis.

Factors Associated with Survival in Patients Undergoing Invasive Mechanical Ventilation in an Intensive Care Unit in Colombia, 2017-2018: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Drugs Real World Outcomes 2021; 8:417-425. [PMID: 33829374 PMCID: PMC8026090 DOI: 10.1007/s40801-021-00241-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 02/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Critically ill patients are admitted to intensive care units so they can be comprehensively managed and provided with services not covered in general hospital wards, with the aim to increase their chances of survival. These procedures include invasive mechanical ventilation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with survival in critically ill patients who required invasive mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit of a tertiary-level hospital in Colombia. METHODS This was a retrospective follow-up study of a cohort of adult patients who required invasive mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit in San José de Buga Hospital, between 2017 and 2018. Sociodemographic, clinical, and pharmacological variables were identified. Using Cox regression, variables associated with survival and complications were identified. RESULTS A total of 357 patients were analyzed. The average age was 64.8 ± 18.9 years, and 52.9% were male. The most frequent diagnoses were sepsis/septic shock (38.4%) and trauma (17.4%). The main factors associated with shorter survival were advanced age (HR 0.97; 95% CI 0.96-0.99), a diagnosis of septic shock (HR 0.29; 95% CI 0.18-0.48) or diabetes mellitus at admission (HR 0.57; 95% CI 0.33-0.98), a healthcare-associated infection (HR 0.51; 95% CI 0.33-0.80), and the need for vasopressors (HR 0.36; 95% CI 0.22-0.59). The administration of systemic corticosteroids was associated with a higher probability of survival (HR 1.93; 95% CI 1.15-3.25). CONCLUSIONS The use of systemic corticosteroids was associated with a greater probability of survival in critically ill patients who required invasive mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit. The identification of the variables associated with a higher risk of dying should allow care protocols to be improved, thereby extending the life expectancy of these patients.
