Abstract
Water acknowledged as a vital component for life and the universal solvent, is crucial for diverse physiological processes in the human body. While essential for survival, the human body lacks the capacity to produce water, emphasizing the need for regular ingestion to maintain a homeostatic environment. The human body, predominantly composed of water, exhibits remarkable biochemical properties, playing a pivotal role in processes such as protein transport, thermoregulation, the cell cycle, and acid–base balance. This review delves into comprehending the molecular characteristics of water and its interactions within the human body. The article offers valuable insights into the intricate relationship between water and critical illness. Through a comprehensive exploration, it seeks to enhance our understanding of water’s pivotal role in sustaining overall human health.

Abstract
Osmotic gradients over cell membranes lead to water movement into or out of cells. An intact osmoregulation prevents osmotic gradients, thereby protecting cells from swelling or shrinking. Na+ is the major cation in the extracellular fluid (ECF) and the major determinant of the osmolarity in the ECF, including plasma. Therefore, the plasma-Na+ concentration needs to be tightly regulated. An excess of electrolyte-free water decreases the concentration of osmolytes leading to hyponatremia. In contrast, a free water deficit increases the osmolyte concentration leading to hypernatremia. Pathophysiology-oriented approaches to dysnatremic patients help both clinicians and patients. Therapeutic interventions depend on the differentiation between acute and chronic, asymptomatic, and symptomatic dysnatremia, and on the patient's extracellular volume status. The therapeutic armamentarium for hyponatremia consists of water restriction, hypertonic infusions, urea, V2 receptor-blockers, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. Patients with hypernatremia are treated with electrolyte-free water or hypotonic sodium-containing solutions depending on their volume status. Basic concepts in the management of dysnatremic patients are discussed.

SHoC-IVC: Does assessment of the inferior vena cava by point-of-care ultrasound independently predict fluid status in spontaneously breathing patients with undifferentiated hypotension? CAN J EMERG MED 2023; 25:902-908. [PMID: 37755657 DOI: 10.1007/s43678-023-00584-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurately determining the fluid status of a patient during resuscitation in the emergency department (ED) helps guide appropriate fluid administration in the setting of undifferentiated hypotension. Our goal was to determine the diagnostic utility of point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) for inferior vena cava (IVC) size and collapsibility in predicting a volume overload fluid status in spontaneously breathing hypotensive ED patients. METHODS This was a post hoc secondary analysis of the SHOC-ED data, a prospective randomized controlled trial investigating PoCUS in patients with undifferentiated hypotension. We prospectively collected data on IVC size and collapsibility for 138 patients in the PoCUS group using a standard data collection form, and independently assigned a fluid status (volume overloaded, normal, volume deplete) from a composite clinical chart review blinded to PoCUS findings. The primary outcome was the diagnostic performance of IVC characteristics on PoCUS in the detection of a volume overloaded fluid status. RESULTS One hundred twenty-nine patients had completed determinant IVC assessment by PoCUS, with one hundred twenty-five receiving successful final fluid status determination, of which one hundred and seven were classified as volume deplete, thirteen normal, and seven volume overloaded. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted using several IVC size and collapsibility categories. The best overall performance utilized the combined parameters of a dilated IVC (> 2.5 cm) with minimal collapsibility (less than 50%) which had a sensitivity of 85.7% and specificity of 86.4% with an area under the curve (AOC) of 0.92 for predicting an volume overloaded fluid status. CONCLUSION IVC PoCUS is feasible in spontaneously breathing hypotensive adult ED patients, and demonstrates potential value as a predictor of a volume overloaded fluid status in patients with undifferentiated hypotension. IVC size may be the preferred measure.

Association of Longitudinal B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Monitoring With Kidney Failure in Patients With CKD: A Cohort Study. Am J Kidney Dis 2023; 82:559-568. [PMID: 37354935 DOI: 10.1053/j.ajkd.2023.05.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE Both hypervolemia and hypovolemia are associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Although longitudinal monitoring of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) may aid physicians' decision making about the optimization of volume status, its clinical benefit remains uncertain in CKD. This study assessed the association between BNP monitoring and the risk of incident kidney replacement therapy (KRT). STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS A total of 2,998 outpatients with stages 3-5 of nondialyzed CKD referred to the department of nephrology at an academic hospital. EXPOSURE BNP monitoring. OUTCOME KRT, acute kidney injury (AKI), and heart failure hospitalization. ANALYTICAL APPROACH Marginal structural models, which create a balanced pseudo population at each time point, were applied to account for potential time-dependent confounders. Inverse probability weighted pooled logistic regression models were employed to estimate hazard ratios. RESULTS At baseline, the median age and estimated glomerular filtration rate were 66 years and 38.1mL/min/1.73m2, respectively. During the follow-up period (median, 5.9 [IQR, 2.8-9.9] years), 449 patients required KRT, 765 had AKI, and 236 were hospitalized for heart failure. After adjustment for time-updated clinical characteristics and physician-specific practice styles, BNP monitoring was associated with lower risks of KRT (HR, 0.44 [95% CI, 0.21-0.92]), AKI (HR, 0.36 [95% CI, 0.18-0.72]), and heart failure hospitalization (HR, 0.37 [95% CI, 0.14-0.95]). The association between BNP monitoring and KRT was attenuated after additional adjustment for AKI or heart failure hospitalization as a time-varying covariate. LIMITATIONS Residual confounding by measured and unmeasured variables or indications for BNP measurements. CONCLUSIONS BNP monitoring was associated with a lower risk of KRT among patients with CKD that did not require dialysis. This association is potentially mediated through a reduced risk of AKI or heart failure hospitalization. PLAIN-LANGUAGE SUMMARY Both volume overload and volume depletion are deleterious to kidney function. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a biomarker that reflects volume status not only in heart failure but also in nondialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although longitudinal BNP monitoring may aid physicians' decision making about the optimization of volume status, its clinical benefit remains uncertain in CKD. In this cohort study analyzing 2,998 patients with nondialyzed CKD, BNP monitoring was associated with a lower risk of kidney replacement therapy, acute kidney injury, and heart failure hospitalization over the follow-up period. The association with kidney replacement therapy may be mediated through a reduced risk of acute kidney injury or heart failure hospitalization. BNP monitoring may aid physicians in optimal fluid management, potentially conferring better kidney outcomes.

Abstract
Quantifying changes in intravascular fluid volume is important for treatment planning and follow-up assessment in dogs with dehydration. Recently, it has been reported that current standard methods used to estimate intravascular fluid volume in dogs are inadequate, invasive, or have complications such as thrombosis. The ultrasonographic ratio of dimensions for the caudal vena cava relative to the aorta (CVC/Ao) has been previously described as a promising, noninvasive method for quantifying changes in blood volume in dogs. This prospective observational study aimed to describe ultrasonographic CVC/Ao values before and after fluid replacement in a sample of dogs with varying degrees of dehydration due to naturally-occurring canine parvoviral enteritis (CPE), test correlations between this measure and clinical dehydration scores and determine the clinical efficacy of this measure for fluid therapy follow-up. The clinical dehydration score of 30 dogs naturally infected with canine parvovirus was determined at the first admission using standard clinical scoring methods, and then CVC/Ao was measured ultrasonographically. Following initial fluid therapy, the clinical dehydration scores and ultrasonographic CVC/Ao values were remeasured. On the basis of receiver operating characteristic analyses, ultrasonographic CVC/Ao was found to be a more sensitive and specific indicator than physical examination-based methods for estimating intravascular fluid alterations in dogs with dehydration due to parvovirus and rehydration following fluid therapy. Findings supported the use of this measure for treatment planning and follow-up in future dogs presenting with dehydration.

Abstract
Accurate determination of intravascular volume status is challenging in acutely ill patients. Favorable patient outcome is vital to correctly identify intravascular volume depletion and avoid systemic venous congestion. Most of the conventional means of hemodynamic monitoring in the acute healthcare setting are geared toward addressing the cardiac output and maintaining an optimum mean arterial pressure. While assessing and maintaining cardiac output in an acutely ill patient is very important, a venous congestion cascade is often overlooked, which can negatively affect the intraabdominal end organs. The prospect of using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) to determine systemic venous congestion could be a potentially handy tool for clinicians. Venous excess ultrasound score (VExUS) has also been utilized by clinicians as a semi-quantitative assessment tool to assess fluid status. This review aims to discuss the potential role of POCUS and VExUS scores in determining systemic venous congestion through a narrative review of recently published literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The correct identification of the appropriateness of fluid administration is important for the treatment of critically ill patients. Static and dynamic indices used to identify fluid responsiveness have been developed throughout the years, nonetheless fluid responsiveness does not indicate that fluid administration is appropriate, and indexes to evaluate appropriateness of fluid administration are lacking. The aim of this study was to evaluate if central venous pressure (CVP) anddynamic indices could correctly identify fluid appropriateness for critically ill patients. METHODS Data from 31 ICU patients, for a total of 53 observations, was included in the analysis. Patients were divided into two cohorts based on the appropriateness of fluid administration. Fluid appropriateness was defined in presence of a low cardiac index (< 2.5 l/min/m2) without any sign of fluid overload, as assessed by global end-diastolic volume index, extravascular lung water index or pulmonary artery occlusion pressure. RESULTS For 10 patients, fluid administration was deemed appropriate, while for 21 patients it was deemed inappropriate. Central venous pressure was not different between the two cohorts (mean CVP 11 (4) mmHg in the fluid inappropriate group, 12 (4) mmHg in the fluid appropriate group, p 0.58). The same is true for pulse pressure variation (median PPV 5 [2, 9] % in the fluid inappropriate group, 4 [3, 13] % in the fluid appropriate group, p 0.57), for inferior vena cava distensibility (mean inferior vena cava distensibility 24 (14) % in the fluid inappropriate group, 22 (16) % in the fluid appropriate group, p 0.75) and for changes in end tidal carbon dioxide during a passive leg raising test (median d.ETCO2 1.5 [0.0, 2.0]% in the fluid inappropriate group, 1.0 [0.0, 2.0] % in the fluid appropriate group, p 0.98). There was no association between static and dynamic indices and fluid appropriateness. CONCLUSIONS Central venous pressure, pulse pressure variation, changes in end tidal carbon dioxide during a passive leg raising test, inferior vena cava distensibility were not associated with fluid appropriateness in our cohorts.

Feasibility study using longitudinal bioelectrical impedance analysis to evaluate body water status during fluid resuscitation in a swine sepsis model. Intensive Care Med Exp 2022; 10:51. [PMID: 36472756 PMCID: PMC9727062 DOI: 10.1186/s40635-022-00480-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Fluid resuscitation is crucial in the initial management of sepsis; however, little is known about the serial changes and overall distribution of fluids administered into the body. To identify the feasibility of longitudinal bioelectrical impedance analysis during fluid treatment, a preclinical porcine model of Escherichia coli-induced sepsis was used. After sepsis induction, pigs were treated with fluid and vasopressors and monitored for up to 12 h after bacterial infusion or until death. Bipolar electrodes for bioelectrical impedance analysis were attached to the left extremities and measurements were performed every 10 min. Among the 12 subjects, 7 pigs expired during the experiment, and the median survival was 9.5 h. As sepsis progressed with an increase in cumulative fluid balance, R0 [∝ 1/extracellular water (ECW)] decreased, while Ri [∝ 1/intracellular water (ICW)] and ratio of extracellular water to total body water (ECW/TBW) increased. The phase angle constantly decreased throughout the monitoring period, and all non-survivors died when the phase angle decreased by more than 10%. Among the variables, ΔR0 and Δphase angle showed moderate negative correlations, and ΔECW/TBW showed a moderate positive correlation with the hourly fluid balance. Compared to survivors, a greater increase in ΔECW/TBW and a decrease in phase angle were observed in non-survivors over time, with an increase in cumulative fluid balance. Differences in ΔECW/TBW and phase angle emerged at 240 min when the difference in cumulative fluid balance between the two groups (survivors vs non-survivors) exceeded 1000 mL. In conclusion, continuous measurements of bioelectrical impedance analysis in a porcine sepsis model are feasible and may reflect changes in the body water profile during fluid resuscitation.

Abstract
The absence of an accepted gold standard to estimate volume status is an obstacle for optimal management of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The applicability of the analogue mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsa) as a surrogate of the mean circulatory pressure to estimate volume status for patients with LVADs has not been investigated. Variability of flows generated by the Impella CP, a temporary LVAD, should have no physiological impact on fluid status. This translational interventional ovine study demonstrated that Pmsa did not change with variable circulatory flows induced by a continuous flow LVAD (the average dynamic increase in Pmsa of 0.20 ± 0.95 mmHg from zero to maximal Impella flow was not significant (p = 0.68)), confirming applicability of the human Pmsa equation for an ovine LVAD model. The study opens new directions for future translational and human investigations of fluid management using Pmsa for patients with temporary LVADs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility of ultrasonographically measuring the caudal vena cava (CVC) at the subxiphoid view of healthy, lightly sedated cats in a standing position and lateral recumbency. METHODS This was a prospective, observational, experimental single-centre study. Twenty healthy research-purposed cats were enrolled. Two trained operators scanned each cat in two positions - standing and lateral recumbency - in a randomised order. CVC diameter was measured at the narrowest diameter during inspiration and at the widest diameter during expiration, at two anatomical locations along the CVC - where the CVC crosses the diaphragm (base) and 2 mm caudal to the diaphragm. The CVC collapsibility index (CVC-CI) was calculated for each site. Normalcy was assessed with a Shapiro-Wilk test. A one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey's test was used to compare inspiratory with expiratory values within and between groups. A paired t-test compared the CVC-CI between groups (P ⩽0.05 indicated statistical significance). Spearman's correlation and Bland-Altman analysis assessed inter-operator variability. RESULTS All ultrasonographic data passed normalcy and were reported as mean ± SD. When compared with each other, inspiratory and expiratory values were statistically different for position, location and operator (all P <0.0001). There was no statistically significant difference between lateral recumbency or standing position for inspiratory, expiratory and CVC-CI values. Inter-operator variability was substantial, with operator 2 consistently obtaining smaller measurements than operator 1. The mean CVC-CI in lateral recumbency at the base was 24% for operator 1 and 37% for operator 2. For the same site in standing position, CVC-CI was 27% and 41% for operators 1 and 2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This pilot study demonstrates that it is possible to ultrasonographically measure the CVC diameter in both lateral recumbency and a standing position in healthy, lightly sedated cats. However, measurements obtained are operator dependent with variability between individuals. Further studies are needed to determine if ultrasonographic CVC assessment will prove helpful in estimating intravascular volume status in cats.

Abstract
Aortic insufficiency caused by paravalvular leakage (PVL) is one of the most feared complications following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) in patients. Domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica) are a popular large animal model to study such conditions and develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. However, the models based on prosthetic valve implantation are time intensive, costly, and often hamper further hemodynamic measurements such as PV loop and 4D MRI flow by causing implantation-related wall motion abnormalities and degradation of MR image quality. This study describes in detail, the establishment of a minimally invasive porcine model suitable to study the effects of mild-to-moderate “paravalvular“ aortic regurgitation on left ventricular (LV) performance and blood flow patterns, particularly under the influence of altered afterload, preload, inotropic state, and heart rate. Six domestic pigs (Swiss large white, female, 60–70 kg of body weight) were used to establish this model. The defects on the hinge point of aortic leaflets and annulus were created percutaneously by the pierce-and-dilate technique either in the right coronary cusp (RCC) or in the non-coronary cusp (NCC). The hemodynamic changes as well as LV performance were recorded by PV loop measurements, while blood flow patterns were assessed by 4D MRI. LV performance was additionally challenged by pharmaceutically altering cardiac inotropy, chronotropy, and afterload. The presented work aims to elaborate the dos and don'ts in porcine models of aortic insufficiency and intends to steepen the learning curve for researchers planning to use this or similar models by giving valuable insights ranging from animal selection to vascular access choices, placement of PV Loop catheter, improvement of PV loop data acquisition and post-processing and finally the induction of paravalvular regurgitation of the aortic valve by a standardized and reproducible balloon induced defect in a precisely targeted region of the aortic valve.

Abstract
Purpose This is a foundational study in which multiorgan system point of care ultrasound (POCUS) and machine learning (ML) are used to mimic physician management decisions regarding the functional intravascular volume status (IVS) and need for diuretic therapy. We present this as an impactful use case of an application of ML in aided decision making for clinical practice. IVS represents complex physiologic interactions of the cardiac, renal, pulmonary, and other organ systems. In particular, we focus on vascular congestion and overload as an evolving concept in POCUS diagnosis and clinical relevance. It is critical for physicians to be able to evaluate IVS without disrupting workflow or exposing patients to unnecessary testing, radiation, or cost. This work utilized a small retrospective dataset as a feasibility test for ML binary classification of diuretic administration validated with clinical decision data. Future work will be directed toward artificial intelligence (AI) delivery at the bedside and assessment of the impact on patient-centered outcomes and physician workflow improvement. Approach We retrospectively reviewed and processed 1039 POCUS video clips, including cardiac, thoracic, and inferior vena cava (IVC) views. Multiorgan POCUS clips were correlated with clinical data extracted from the electronic health record and deidentified for algorithm training and validation. We implemented a two-stream three-dimensional (3D) deep learning approach that fuses heart and IVC data to perform binary classification of the need for diuretic use. Results Our proposed approach achieves high classification accuracy (84%) for the determination of diuretic use with 0.84 area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Conclusions Our two-stream 3D deep neural network is able to classify POCUS video clips that match physicians' classification for or against diuretic use with high accuracy. This serves as a foundational step in the progress toward AI-aided diagnosis and AI implementation in the field of IVS evaluation by POCUS.

Abstract
Accurate volume status assessments allow physicians to rapidly implement therapeutic measures in acutely unwell patients. However, existing bedside diagnostic tools are often unreliable for assessing intravascular volume. We searched PUBMED, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and Web of Science for English language articles without date restrictions on January 20, 2022. Studies reporting the diagnostic accuracy of IJV-US for hypovolemia and/or hypervolemia in an acute care setting were screened for inclusion. We included studies using any method of IJV-US assessment as the index test, compared against any reference standard. We fitted hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (HSROC) models for meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy, separately for hypovolemia and hypervolemia. Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed risk of bias using QUADAS-2. We assessed certainty of evidence using the GRADE approach. A total of 26 studies were included, of which 19 studies (956 patients) examined IJV-US for hypovolemia and 13 studies (672 patients) examined IJV-US for hypervolemia. For the diagnosis of hypovolemia, IJV-US had a pooled sensitivity of 0.82 (95% CI 0.76 to 0.87; moderate-certainty evidence) and specificity of 0.82 (95% CI 0.73 to 0.88; moderate-certainty evidence). Measurement of IJV collapsibility indices had higher diagnostic accuracy (sensitivity 0.85, 95% CI 0.80 to 0.89; specificity 0.78, 95% CI 0.64 to 0.88) than static IJV indices (sensitivity 0.73, 95% CI 0.60 to 0.82; specificity 0.70, 95% CI 0.48 to 0.86). For the diagnosis of hypervolemia, IJV-US had a pooled sensitivity of 0.84 (95% CI 0.70 to 0.92; moderate-certainty evidence) and specificity of 0.70 (95% CI 0.55 to 0.82; very low-certainty evidence). IJV-US has moderate sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of hypervolemia and hypovolemia. Randomized controlled trials are needed to determine the role of IJV-US for guiding therapeutic interventions aimed at optimizing volume status.

Abstract
Fluid therapy is an important supportive measure for patients with severe malaria. Patients with severe malaria usually have normal cardiac index, vascular resistance, and blood pressure and a small degree of hypovolaemia due to dehydration. Cell hypoxia, reduced kidney function, and acidosis result from microcirculatory compromise and malarial anaemia, which reduce tissue oxygenation, not hypovolaemia. Hence, aggressive fluid loading does not correct acid-base status, enhance kidney function, or improve patient outcomes, and it risks complications such as pulmonary oedema. Individualised conservative fluid management is recommended in patients with severe malaria. Physical examination and physiological indices have limited reliability in guiding fluid therapy. Invasive measures can be more accurate than physical examination and physiological indices but are often unavailable in endemic areas, and non-invasive measures, such as ultrasound, are mostly unexplored. Research into reliable methods applicable in low-resource settings to measure fluid status and response is a priority. In this Review, we outline the current knowledge on fluid management in severe malaria and highlight research needed to optimise fluid therapy and improve survival in severe malaria.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Hypertension is common in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. It remains to be determined the extent to which fluid overload contributes to uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) in this population. The aim was to determine the association between fluid status as measured using bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) and BP in CAPD patients.
Methods
A cross-sectional study was performed involving 50 stable CAPD patients at a single center in Cape Town, South Africa. All participants were known to have hypertension and were divided into two groups based on office BP measurements: an uncontrolled BP group (systolic BP ≥ 140 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥ 90 mmHg) and a controlled BP group. Fluid status was determined using BIS (Body Composition Monitor®, Fresenius Medical Care, Bad Homburg, Germany).
Results
There was a statistically significant difference in overhydration (OH) between the uncontrolled BP group and the controlled BP group (3.0 ± 2.3 L vs. 1.4 ± 1.6 L, respectively, P = 0.01). The uncontrolled BP group was older (37.7 ± 9.5 years vs. 32.0 ± 8.0 years, P = 0.04) and had a shorter dialysis vintage (15 [IQR, 7–22] months vs. 31 [IQR, 12–39] months, P = 0.02). Significant correlations were found between OH and the extracellular water (ECW) (r = 0.557, P < 0.01) and ECW to total body water (TBW) ratio (r = 0.474, P < 0.01). Mixed ancestry, presence of residual kidney function, ECW, and ECW to TBW ratio were identified as predictors of OH on multivariable linear regression.
Conclusions
We found that stable CAPD patients with uncontrolled BP had higher OH compared to patients whose BP was controlled.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with renal failure suffer from fluid overload which is a risk factor for mortality and morbidity. Therefore, fluid status assessment in patients on regular hemodialysis is very important. Dry weight assessment by clinical parameters is not always reliable. We evaluate the role of inferior vena cava ultrasound in estimating fluid overload in regular hemodialysis patients.
Results
A total of 45 persons, 30 end-stage renal disease patients on regular hemodialysis in group A (18 men and 12 women) and 15 healthy persons in group B (10 men and 5 women), were included in the study. The patients in group A ages ranged from 29 to 70 years with a mean of 48.38 ± 12.70 years and in group B ages ranged from 25 to 55 years with a mean of 34.93 ± 8.26. By clinical methods, the mean dry weight was 68.37 kg (68.37 ± 10.42). After HD mean, IVCe decreased from 2.01 ± 0.29 to 1.79 ± 0.22 cm (P < 0.001) similarly, mean IVCi decreased from 0.99 ± 0.48 to 0.64 ± 0.39 cm (P < 0.001). Changes in IVCD were significantly correlated with alterations in body weight following dialysis (P < 0.001). The IVC-CI increased significantly after dialysis (P < 0.001). IVCD and its IVC-CI reflected alterations in fluid status (P < 0.001). Considering the clinical parameters of fluid status, following HD mean, heart rate increased from 81.80 ± 5.15 beats per minute to 89.87 ± 6.42, (P < 0.001), systolic blood pressure decreased from 130 ± 18.43 mmHg to 113.33 ± 15.27 (P < 0.001), and diastolic blood pressure decreased from 80.17 ± 10.12 mmHg to 71.50 ± 9.29 (P < 0.001).
Conclusion
It was found a significant correlation between IVCD and IVC-CI with ultrafiltration of hemodialysis. Thus, IVC ultrasound can be used in dry weight assessment in ESRD patients on regular HD by measurement of IVCD and IVC-CI before and after hemodialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In order to quantify fluid administration and evaluate the clinical consequences of conservative fluid management without hemodynamic monitoring in undifferentiated shock, we analyzed previously collected data from a study of carotid Doppler monitoring as a predictor of fluid responsiveness (FR). METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of data collected from a single tertiary academic center from a previous study. Seventy-four patients were included for post-hoc analysis, and 52 of them were identified as fluid responsive (cardiac output increase > 10% with passive leg raise) according to NICOMTM bioreactance monitoring (Cheetah Medical, Newton Center, MA, USA). Treating teams provided standard of care conservative fluid resuscitation but were blinded to independently performed FR testing results. Outcomes were compared between fluid responsive and fluid non-responsive patients. Primary outcome measures were volume fluids administered and net fluid balance 24- and 72-hour post-FR assessment. Secondary outcome measures included change in vasopressor requirements, mean peak lactate levels, length of hospital/intensive care unit stay, acute respiratory failure, hemodialysis requirement, and durations of vasopressors and mechanical ventilation. RESULTS Mean fluids administered within 72 hours were similar between fluid non-responsive and fluid responsive patients (139 mL/kg [95% confidence interval [CI]: 102.00-175.00] vs. 136 mL/kg [95% CI: 113.00-158.00], p = 0.92, respectively). We observed an insignificant trend toward higher 28-day mortality among fluid non-responsive patients (36% vs. 19%, p = 0.14). Volume of fluids administered significantly correlated with adverse outcomes such as increased hemodialysis requirements (32 patients, 43%), (odds ratio [OR] = 1.7200, p = 0.0018). Subgroup analysis suggested administering ≥ 30 mL/kg fluids to fluid responsive patients had a trend toward increased mortality (25% vs. 0%, p = 0.09) and a significant increase in hemodialysis (55% vs. 17%, p = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS Without formal FR assessment, similar amounts of total fluids were administered in both fluid responsive and non-responsive patients. As greater volumes of intravenous fluids administered were associated with adverse outcomes, we suggest that dedicated FR assessment may be a beneficial utility in early shock resuscitation.

Abstract
Liver and biliary disease complicates pregnancy in varying degrees of severity to the mother and fetus, and anesthesiologists may be asked to assist in caring for these patients before, during, and after birth of the fetus. Therefore, it is important to be familiar with how different liver diseases impact the pregnancy state. In addition, knowing symptoms, signs, and laboratory markers in the context of a pregnant patient will lead to faster diagnosis and treatment of such patients. This review article discusses changes in physiology of parturients, patients with liver disease, and parturients with liver disease. Next, general treatment of parturients with acute and chronic liver dysfunction is presented. The article progresses to specific liver diseases with treatments as they relate to pregnancy. And finally, important aspects to consider when anesthetizing parturients with liver disease are discussed.

Abstract
The syndrome of acute-on-chronic liver failure combines deterioration of liver function in a patient with chronic liver disease, with the development of extrahepatic organ failure and high short-term mortality. Its successful management demands a rapid and coherent response to the development of dysfunction and failure of multiple organ systems in an intensive care unit setting. This response recognises the features that distinguish it from other critical illness and addresses the complex interplay between the precipitating insult, the many organ systems involved and the disordered physiology of underlying chronic liver disease. An evidence base is building to support the approaches currently adopted and outcomes for patients with this condition are improving, but mortality remains unacceptably high. Herein, we review practical considerations in critical care management, as well as discussing key knowledge gaps and areas of controversy that require further focussed research.

Harris BA, Hofmeister EH, Gicking JC. A survey of emergency and critical care veterinarians regarding IV fluid bolus therapy and monitoring practices in small animals. J Vet Emerg Crit Care (San Antonio) 2021; 31:564-573. [PMID: 34174154 DOI: 10.1111/vec.13091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 01/13/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine how veterinary emergency and critical care clinicians define IV fluid bolus therapy (FBT) and what constitutes a positive response to a fluid bolus. DESIGN Online survey of 222 emergency and critical care veterinarians between December 17, 2018, and March 1, 2019. INTERVENTIONS An online survey was provided to diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care (ACVECC), residents of ACVECC-approved training programs, as well as house officers and emergency clinicians of a corporate multicenter emergency and specialty care veterinary hospital. The survey investigated the administration of various crystalloid, colloid, and blood products for FBT, as well as expected physiological responses. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The majority of respondents considered balanced isotonic crystalloids appropriate for FBT (220/222 [99.1%]). Respondents showed greater variability in acceptance of 0.9% sodium chloride (105/222 [47.30%]), hypertonic (3-7%) sodium chloride (131/222 [59.01%]), and hydroxyethyl starch solutions (90/222 [40.54%]). Most respondents did not consider physiological plasma (44/222 [19.82%]) an appropriate choice. The most commonly used parameters for monitoring FBT responses were heart rate (220/222 [99.10%]), blood pressure (217/222 [97.75%]), capillary refill time (192/222 [86.49%]), lactate (181/222 [81.53%]), pulse pressure (151/222 [68.02%]), and rectal temperature (145/222 [65.32%]). The majority of respondents perceived that 0-20% (165/222 [74.32%]) of hypotensive patients are nonresponsive to FBT. CONCLUSIONS Small animal emergency and critical care clinicians favored balanced isotonic electrolyte solutions and hypertonic sodium chloride solutions for FBT over other options. When monitoring responses to FBT, heart rate, blood pressure, capillary refill time, and plasma lactate were among the most commonly monitored parameters, and there was a lack of familiarity with others. Despite the widespread use of FBT, these findings outline the need for further prospective clinical trials regarding the ideal fluid type and rate, as well as the appropriate responses to FBT.

Ultrasonographic Assessment of Extravascular Lung Water in Hospitalized Patients Requiring Hemodialysis: A Prospective Observational Study. Cardiorenal Med 2021; 11:151-160.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sonographic technologies can estimate extravascular lung water (EVLW) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. This study investigated the suitability of a handheld scanner in contrast to a portable scanner for quantifying EVLW in hospitalized patients requiring HD. METHODS In this prospective study, 54 hospitalized HD patients were enrolled. Bedside lung ultrasound was performed within 30 min before and after dialysis using handheld (phased array transducer, 1.7-3.8 MHz) and portable (curved probe, 5-2 MHz) ultrasound devices. Eight lung zones were scanned for total B-lines number (TBLN). The maximum diameter of inferior vena cava (IVC) was measured. We performed Passing-Bablok regression, Deming regression, Bland-Altman, and logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The 2 devices did not differ in measuring TBLN and IVC (p > 0.05), showing a high correlation (r = 0.92 and r = 0.51, respectively). Passing-Bablok regression had a slope of 1.11 and an intercept of 0 for TBLN, and the slope of Deming regression was 1.02 within the CI bands of 0.94 and 1.11 in the full cohort. TBLN was logarithmically transformed for Bland-Altman analysis, showing a bias of 0.06 (TBLN = 1.2) between devices. The slope and intercept of the Deming regression in IVC measurements were 0.77 and 0.46, respectively; Bland-Altman plot showed a bias of -0.07. Compared with predialysis, TBLN significantly (p < 0.001) decreased after dialysis, while IVC was unchanged (p = 0.16). Univariate analysis showed that cardiovascular disease (odds ratio [OR] 8.94 [2.13-61.96], p = 0.002), smoking history (OR 5.75 [1.8-20.46], p = 0.003), and right pleural effusion (OR 5.0 [1.2-25.99], p = 0.03) were strong predictors of EVLW indicated by TBLN ≥ 4. CONCLUSION The lung and IVC findings obtained from handheld and portable ultrasound scanners are comparable and concordant. Cardiovascular disease and smoking history were strong predictors of EVLW. The use of TBLN to assess EVLW in hospitalized HD patients is feasible. Further studies are needed to determine if TBLN can help guide volume removal in HD patients.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Although early fluid administration has been shown to lower sepsis mortality, positive fluid balance has been associated with adverse outcomes. Little is known about associations in non-intensive care unit settings, with growing concern about readmission from excess fluid accumulation in patients with sepsis. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether positive fluid balance among non-critically ill patients with sepsis was associated with increased readmission risk, including readmission for heart failure. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2017, among 57 032 non-critically ill adults hospitalized for sepsis at 21 hospitals across Northern California. Kaiser Permanente Northern California is an integrated health care system with a community-based population of more than 4.4 million members. Statistical analysis was performed from January 1 to December 31, 2019. EXPOSURES Intake and output net fluid balance (I/O) measured daily and cumulatively at discharge (positive vs negative). MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary outcome was 30-day readmission. The secondary outcomes were readmission stratified by category and mortality after living discharge. RESULTS The cohort included 57 032 patients who were hospitalized for sepsis (28 779 women [50.5%]; mean [SD] age, 73.7 [15.5] years). Compared with patients with positive I/O (40 940 [71.8%]), those with negative I/O (16 092 [28.2%]) were older, with increased comorbidity, acute illness severity, preexisting heart failure or chronic kidney disease, diuretic use, and decreased fluid administration volume. During 30-day follow-up, 8719 patients (15.3%) were readmitted and 3639 patients (6.4%) died. There was no difference in readmission between patients with positive vs negative I/O (HR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.95-1.05). No association was detected between readmission and I/O using continuous, splined, and quadratic function transformations. Positive I/O was associated with decreased heart failure-related readmission (HR, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.71-0.91]) and increased 30-day mortality (HR, 1.23 [95% CI, 1.15-1.31]). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this large observational study of non-critically ill patients hospitalized with sepsis, there was no association between positive fluid balance at the time of discharge and readmission. However, these findings may have been limited by variable recording and documentation of fluid intake and output; additional studies are needed to examine the association of fluid status with outcomes in patients with sepsis to reduce readmission risk.

Abstract
Assessment of patients’ volume status at the bedside is a very important clinical skill that physicians need in many clinical scenarios. Hypovolemia with hypotension and tissue under-perfusion are usually more alarming to physicians, but hypervolemia is also associated with poor outcomes, making euvolemia a crucial goal in clinical practice. Nevertheless, the assessment of volume status can be challenging, especially in the absence of a gold standard test that is reliable and easily accessible to assist with clinical decision-making. Physicians need to have a broad knowledge of the individual non-invasive clinical tools available for them at the bedside to evaluate volume status. In this review, we will discuss the strengths and limitations of the traditional tools, which include careful history taking, physical examination, and basic laboratory tests, and also include the relatively new tool of point-of-care ultrasound.

Abstract
Accurate assessment of relative intravascular volume is critical to guide volume management of patients with acute or chronic kidney disorders, particularly those with complex comorbidities requiring hospitalization or intensive care. Inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter variability with respiration measured by ultrasound provides a dynamic noninvasive point-of-care estimate of relative intravascular volume. We present details of image acquisition, interpretation, and clinical scenarios to which IVC ultrasound can be applied. The variation in IVC diameter over the respiratory or ventilatory cycle is greater in patients who are volume responsive than those who are not volume responsive. When 2 recent prospective studies of spontaneously breathing patients (n = 214) are added to a prior meta-analysis of 181 patients, for a total of 7 studies of 395 spontaneously breathing patients, IVC collapsibility index (CI) had a pooled sensitivity of 71% and specificity of 81% for predicting volume responsiveness, which is similar to a pooled sensitivity of 75% and specificity of 82% for 9 studies of 284 mechanically ventilated patients. IVC maximum diameter <2.1 cm, that collapses >50% with or without a sniff is inconsistent with intravascular volume overload and suggests normal right atrial pressure (0-5 mmHg). Inferior vena cava collapsibility (IVC CI) < 20% with no sniff suggests increased right atrial pressure and is inconsistent with overt hypovolemia in spontaneously breathing or ventilated patients. These IVC CI cutoffs do not appear to vary greatly depending on whether patients are breathing spontaneously or are mechanically ventilated. Patients with lower IVC CI are more likely to tolerate ultrafiltration with hemodialysis or improve cardiac output with ultrafiltration. Our goal for IVC CI generally ranges from 20% to 50%, respecting potential biases to interpretation and overriding clinical considerations. IVC ultrasound may be limited by factors that affect IVC diameter or collapsibility, clinical interpretation, or optimal visualization, and must be interpreted in the context of the entire clinical situation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Measuring fluid status during intraoperative hemorrhage is challenging, but detection and quantification of fluid overload is far more difficult. Using a porcine model of hemorrhage and over-resuscitation, it is hypothesized that centrally obtained hemodynamic parameters will predict volume status more accurately than peripherally obtained vital signs. METHODS Eight anesthetized female pigs were hemorrhaged at 30 ml/min to a blood loss of 400 ml. After each 100 ml of hemorrhage, vital signs (heart rate, systolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, diastolic blood pressure, pulse pressure, pulse pressure variation) and centrally obtained hemodynamic parameters (mean pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, central venous pressure, cardiac output) were obtained. Blood volume was restored, and the pigs were over-resuscitated with 2,500 ml of crystalloid, collecting parameters after each 500-ml bolus. Hemorrhage and resuscitation phases were analyzed separately to determine differences among parameters over the range of volume. Conformity of parameters during hemorrhage or over-resuscitation was assessed. RESULTS During the course of hemorrhage, changes from baseline euvolemia were observed in vital signs (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure) after 100 ml of blood loss. Central hemodynamic parameters (mean pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure) were changed after 200 ml of blood loss, and central venous pressure after 300 ml of blood loss. During the course of resuscitative volume overload, changes were observed from baseline euvolemia in mean pulmonary artery pressure and central venous pressure after 500-ml resuscitation, in pulmonary capillary wedge pressure after 1,000-ml resuscitation, and cardiac output after 2,500-ml resuscitation. In contrast to hemorrhage, vital sign parameters did not change during over-resuscitation. The strongest linear correlation was observed with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in both hemorrhage (r2 = 0.99) and volume overload (r2 = 0.98). CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure is the most accurate parameter to track both hemorrhage and over-resuscitation, demonstrating the unmet clinical need for a less invasive pulmonary capillary wedge pressure equivalent.

Abstract
Management of fluid overload is one of the most challenging problems in the care of critically ill patients with oliguric acute kidney injury. Various clinical practice guidelines support fluid removal using ultrafiltration during kidney replacement therapy. However, ultrafiltration is associated with considerable risks. Emerging evidence from observational studies suggests that both slow and fast rates of net fluid removal (that is, net ultrafiltration (UFNET)) during continuous kidney replacement therapy are associated with increased mortality compared with moderate UFNET rates. In addition, fast UFNET rates are associated with an increased risk of cardiac arrhythmias. Experimental studies in patients with kidney failure who were treated with intermittent haemodialysis suggest that fast UFNET rates are also associated with ischaemic injury to the heart, brain, kidney and gut. The UFNET rate should be prescribed based on patient body weight in millilitres per kilogramme per hour with close monitoring of patient haemodynamics and fluid balance. Dialysate cooling and sodium modelling may prevent haemodynamic instability and facilitate large volumes of fluid removal in patients with kidney failure who are treated with intermittent haemodialysis, but the effects of this strategy on organ injury are less well studied in critically ill patients treated with continuous kidney replacement therapy. Randomized trials are required to examine whether moderate UFNET rates are associated with a reduced risk of haemodynamic instability, organ injury and improved outcomes in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has allowed for significant surgical advancements, but accompanying risks can be significant and must be expertly managed. One of the foremost risks is coagulopathic bleeding. Increasing levels of bleeding in cardiac surgical patients at the time of separation from CPB are associated with poor outcomes and mortality. CPB-associated coagulopathy is typically multifactorial and rarely due to inadequate reversal of systemic heparin alone. The components of the bypass circuit induce systemic inflammation and multiple disturbances of the coagulation and fibrinolytic systems. Anticipating coagulopathy is the first step in managing it, and specific patient and procedural risk factors have been identified as predictors of excessive bleeding. Medication management pre-procedure is critical, as patients undergoing cardiac surgery are commonly on anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents. Important adjuncts to avoid transfusion include antifibrinolytics, and perfusion practices such as red cell salvage, sequestration, and retrograde autologous priming of the bypass circuit have varying degrees of evidence supporting their use. Understanding the patient's coagulation status helps target product replacement and avoid larger volume transfusion. There is increasing recognition of the role of point-of-care viscoelastic and functional platelet testing. Common pitfalls in the management of post-CPB coagulopathy include overdosing protamine for heparin reversal, imperfect laboratory measures of thrombin generation that result in normal or near-normal laboratory results in the presence of continued bleeding, and delayed recognition of surgical bleeding. While challenging, the effective management of CPB-associated coagulopathy can significantly improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the associations between right ventricular (RV) function and outcomes of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). METHODS This is a retrospective study, conducted 2006-2015 at an academic hospital in USA. We included patients with AKI requiring CRRT who had paired echocardiograms within 2 weeks before and after CRRT initiation. We defined improvement in RV systolic function as 2-point improvement on the semiquantitative scale. RESULTS The cohort included 201 patients. The mean(±SD) age was 59(±16) years with 83(41%) female. The median time of the pre and post echocardiograms relative to CRRT initiation were - 1 day (IQR-3;0) prior to and 3 days (IQR1;7) after CRRT initiation. Thirty-one (15%) patients showed an improvement in their RV function. Using a multivariable logistic regression model, improvement in RV systolic function was associated with lower odds of major adverse kidney events (composite of mortality, need for dialysis or persistently elevated serum creatinine) at 90 days with odds ratio (OR) of 0.37(95%CI:0.17-0.84, p.016). Positive cumulative fluid balance was associated with lower odds of improvement in RV function (OR 0.95 per 1-l increase, p 0.045). CONCLUSION Serial assessment of RV function among patients with AKI requiring CRRT could provide prognostic value.

Comparison of dynamic changes in stressed intravascular volume, mean systemic filling pressure and cardiovascular compliance: Pilot investigation and study protocol. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0238045. [PMID: 32857803 PMCID: PMC7454998 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0238045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2020] [Accepted: 08/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) represents an interaction between intravascular volume and global cardiovascular compliance (GCC). Intravascular volume expansion using fluid resuscitation is the most frequent intervention in intensive care and emergency medicine for patients in shock and with haemodynamic compromise. The relationship between dynamic changes in MSFP, GCC and left ventricular compliance is unknown. We conducted prospective interventional pilot study following euthanasia in post cardiotomy adult sheep, investigating the relationships between changes in MSFP induced by rapid intravascular filling with fluids, global cardiovascular compliance and left ventricular compliance. This pilot investigation suggested a robust correlation between a gradual increase in the intravascular stressed volume from 0 to 40 ml/kg and the MSFP r = 0.708 95% CI 0.435 to 0.862, making feasible future prospective interventional studies. Based on the statistical modelling from the pilot results, we expect to identify a strong correlation of 0.71 ± 0.1 (95% CI) between the MSFP and the stressed intravascular volume in a future study.

Abstract
The approach to shock resuscitation focuses on all components of oxygen delivery, including preload, afterload, contractility, hemoglobin, and oxygen saturation. Resuscitation focused solely on preload and fluid responsiveness minimizes other key elements, resulting in suboptimal patient care. This review will provide a physiologic and practical approach for the optimization of oxygen delivery utilizing available hemodynamic monitoring technologies. Venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) and lactate will be discussed as indicators of shock states and endpoints of resuscitation within the framework of resolving oxygen deficit and oxygen debt.

Abstract
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a fatal disease, where death is associated with right heart failure and reduced cardiorespiratory reserve. The Sugen 5416, hypoxia and normoxia Fischer rat model mimics human pulmonary arterial hypertension, although the cause(s) of death remains incompletely understood. Here, we hypothesized that these animals develop biventricular diastolic dysfunction that contributes to tissue hypoperfusion coincident with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension. We performed comprehensive echocardiographic and hematologic assessments. Serial echocardiogram at 3-5 weeks was performed followed by blood sampling via aortic or cardiac puncture. Echocardiogram revealed pulmonary arterial hypertension in pulmonary artery Doppler waves, including notched wave envelopes, and decreased pulmonary artery acceleration time/pulmonary artery ejection time ratio and right ventricular outflow tract velocity time integral. Impaired right ventricular systolic function, assessed by decreased tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and tricuspid tissue Doppler systolic positive wave velocity, was observed in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Tricuspid and mitral pulsed wave and tissue Doppler findings suggested biventricular diastolic dysfunction, with dynamic changes in early and late diastolic filling waves, their fusion patterns, and a decrease in e' velocity. Heart rate and ejection fraction did not change, but cardiac output, stroke volume, and end-diastolic volume were decreased, and inferior vena cava respiratory variation was decreased. Blood electrolyte values were suggestive of intravascular volume expansion early in the disease followed by volume contraction and tissue hypoperfusion in the latter stages of disease. Complete blood count showed thrombocytopenia and non-anemic macrocytosis with reticulocytosis and an increase in red blood cell distribution width. Thus, pulmonary, cardiac, and hematological findings in Fischer animals with pulmonary arterial hypertension are characteristic of humans and provide an insightful experimental platform to resolve mechanisms of disease progression.

Ultrasound-based clinical profiles for predicting the risk of intradialytic hypotension in critically ill patients on intermittent dialysis: a prospective observational study. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2019; 23:389. [PMID: 31791373 PMCID: PMC6889608 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-019-2668-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2019] [Accepted: 11/12/2019] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradialytic hypotension, a complication of intermittent hemodialysis, decreases the efficacy of dialysis and increases long-term mortality. This study was aimed to determine whether different predialysis ultrasound cardiopulmonary profiles could predict intradialytic hypotension. METHODS This prospective observational single-center study was performed in 248 critically ill patients with acute kidney injury undergoing intermittent hemodialysis. Immediately before hemodialysis, vena cava collapsibility was measured by vena cava ultrasound and pulmonary congestion by lung ultrasound. Factors predicting intradialytic hypotension were identified by multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Intradialytic hypotension was observed in 31.9% (n = 79) of the patients, interruption of dialysis because of intradialytic hypotension occurred in 6.8% (n = 31) of the sessions, and overall 28-day mortality was 20.1% (n = 50). Patients were classified in four ultrasound profiles: (A) 108 with B lines > 14 and vena cava collapsibility > 11.5 mm m-2, (B) 38 with B lines < 14 and vena cava collapsibility ≤ 11.5 mm m-2, (C) 36 with B lines > 14 and vena cava collapsibility Di ≤ 11.5 mm m-2, and (D) 66 with B lines < 14 and vena cava collapsibility > 11.5 mm m-2. There was an increased risk of intradialytic hypotension in patients receiving norepinephrine (odds ratios = 15, p = 0.001) and with profiles B (odds ratios = 12, p = 0.001) and C (odds ratios = 17, p = 0.001). CONCLUSION In critically ill patients on intermittent hemodialysis, the absence of hypervolemia as assessed by lung and vena cava ultrasound predisposes to intradialytic hypotension and suggests alternative techniques of hemodialysis to provide better hemodynamic stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Assessment of tissue hydration by conventional bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) has produced conflicting results because of flaws in the algorithms that are used to translate measurements of total body electrical resistance (TBER) into liters of body water. This type of error can be eliminated by a return to the TBER measurement itself, without attempting to convert Ohms into liters of body water. Aims of this study were to quantify tissue hydration based on TBER, to establish TBER normal values (TBERnorm), to improve the prediction of TBERnorm values in individual patients, and to evaluate this approach in patients on hemodialysis (HD). METHODS TBERnorm values were obtained in 213 healthy controls and corrected for body height (H-TBERnorm). Inter-individual H-TBERnorm variability was reduced by correction for arm muscle cross-sectional area (AMA). Performance of this approach was evaluated in 94 patients on HD. RESULTS H-TBERnorm was inversely related to AMA. Correction for AMA reduced the H-TBERnorm standard deviation by 31% in men and 23% in women. When applied to patients on HD, H-TBER changes within subjects were inversely related to ultrafiltration volumes, with a mean R2 of 0.95 ± 0.04 in men and 0.93 ± 0.07 in women. Clinically significant H-TBER increments occurred after volume reductions of 0.39 ± 0.25 L in men and 0.37 ± 0.18 L in women. CONCLUSIONS TBER measurements, corrected for height and AMA, have the potential to become an objective and sensitive method to assess hydration in patients. Its clinical value remains to be shown in intervention studies.

Abstract
Assessment of the volume status by blood pressure (BP) monitoring is difficult, since baroreflex control of BP makes it insensitive to blood loss up to about one liter. We hypothesized that a machine learning model recognizes the progression of central hypovolemia toward presyncope by extracting information of the noninvasive blood pressure waveform parametrized through principal component analysis. This was tested in healthy volunteers exposed to simulated hemorrhage by lower body negative pressure (LBNP). Fifty‐six healthy volunteers were subjected to progressive central hypovolemia. A support vector machine was trained on the blood pressure waveform. Three classes of progressive stages of hypovolemia were defined. The model was optimized for the number of principal components and regularization parameter for penalizing misclassification (cost): C. Model performance was expressed as accuracy, mean squared error (MSE), and kappa statistic (inter‐rater agreement). Forty‐six subjects developed presyncope of which 41 showed an increase in model classification severity from baseline to presyncope. In five of the remaining nine subjects (1 was excluded) it stagnated. Classification of samples during baseline and end‐stage LBNP had the highest accuracy (95% and 50%, respectively). Baseline and first stage of LBNP demonstrated the lowest MSE (0.01 respectively 0.32). Model MSE and accuracy did not improve for C values exceeding 0.01. Adding more than five principal components did not further improve accuracy or MSE. Increment in kappa halted after 10 principal components had been added. Automated feature extraction of the blood pressure waveform allows modeling of progressive hypovolemia with a support vector machine. The model distinguishes classes between baseline and presyncope.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Although initial fluid resuscitation in sepsis is critical for the treatment of tissue hypoperfusion, little evidence supports the distribution of infused fluid in patients with sepsis. This study was designed to assess the body water distribution in patients with sepsis using bioelectrical impedance analysis and correlate the trend in body water distribution during fluid treatment with the prognosis of patients with sepsis. METHODS A prospective study in a single emergency department was performed, and adult patients suspected of having sepsis were enrolled. Multi-frequency direct segmental bioelectrical impedance analysis (InBody S10, InBody) measuring total body water (TBW), intracellular water (ICW), and extracellular water (ECW) was applied to patients with sepsis at three periods: before, immediately after, and 1 hour after the fluid treatment. Survival data at 28 days after the fluid treatment were obtained. RESULTS Forty-two patients were enrolled in this study. Overall, the ratios of TBW, ICW, and ECW to body weight increased throughout the fluid treatment except the ratio of ICW to body weight at 1 hour in non-survivors. While the ratio of ECW to TBW (ECW/TBW) and the ratio of ICW to TBW (ICW/TBW) in survivors remained stable over the period, the trend of ECW/TBW increased with corresponding decline of ICW/TBW in non-survivors (p = 0.0085 and p = 0.0034 between times and groups, respectively) such that ECW/TBW and ICW/TBW were significantly different at 1 hour after the fluid loading period (p = 0.0120 and p = 0.0085, respectively). This contrast pattern was equivalent with the trend of ECW/TBW in trunk but not that of the other extremities. CONCLUSIONS During fluid resuscitation, the trend in ECW/TBW significantly increased with corresponding decrease of ICW/TBW in non-survivors compared with that in survivors, which suggests fluid resuscitation results intracellular dehydration and extracellular edema in non-survivors of patients with sepsis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 20% of patients following cardiac surgery. To reduce AKI in our institution, we instituted a quality improvement (QI) initiative using a goal-directed volume resuscitation protocol. Our protocol was designed to achieve quantifiable physiologic goals (eg, cardiac index > 2.5 L/min/m2, mean arterial pressure > 65 mm Hg) using fluid and vasoactive agents. The objective of this study was to evaluate AKI in the pre- and post-QI eras, hypothesizing that AKI incidence would decrease in the post-QI era. METHODS In this observational retrospective cohort study, we identified patients who underwent cardiac operations from July 2011 to July 2015 with a risk score available. Kidney injury was determined using the lowest postoperative GFR within 7 days of surgery and standard Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of Kidney Function, and End-Stage Kidney Disease (RIFLE) classification criteria. The primary outcome was the rate of AKI, as defined by glomerular filtration rate-based RIFLE classification criteria injury, in the post- versus pre-QI eras. RESULTS A total of 1979 patients were included, of whom 725 were in the pre-QI cohort, and 1254 in the post-QI cohort. Overall, rates of RIFLE classification criteria risk, injury and failure were 27.5%, 5.9%, and 3.6%, respectively. RIFLE classification criteria injury saw the largest decrease in the post-QI cohort (8.1% vs 4.6%; P = .001). Multivariable analysis demonstrated a 37% reduction in the odds of AKI in the post-QI cohort (adjusted odds ratio, 0.63; 95% confidence interval, 0.43-0.90). CONCLUSIONS A goal-directed volume resuscitation protocol centered on patient fluid responsiveness is associated with significantly reduced risk for AKI after cardiac surgery. Protocol-driven approaches should be employed in intensive care units to improve outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rectal fluid administration may offer a simple, safe and inexpensive alternative to intravenous or nasogastric fluid therapy in equine clinical cases. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the tolerance and effects of rectally administered fluid and compare the measurements of haemodilution and intravascular volume with those during nasogastric and intravenous fluid administration. STUDY DESIGN Randomised controlled experimental trial. METHODS Six clinically normal Standardbred geldings were used in a 4-way crossover study: each received three different fluid treatments (intravenous, nasogastric and rectal) at 5 mL/kg/h for 6 h and underwent a control (no treatment) with water and feed withheld. Bodyweight was measured at baseline and 6 h. Packed cell volume (PCV), total solids (TS), albumin, electrolytes, lactate, urine specific gravity, vital parameters, gastrointestinal borborygmi and central venous pressure were measured every 2 h. RESULTS Rectal fluid administration with plain water was well tolerated and caused clinical chemistry changes consistent with haemodilution, indicating absorption. Mean (95% confidence interval) PCV decreased from 40% [40-42] at 0 h to 35% [34-36] at 6 h during rectal fluid treatment (P<0.001), similar to decreases in PCV occurring also with i.v. and nasogastric (NGT) treatment (P<0.001). The TS also decreased with i.v. and rectal fluid (P<0.001). There was a decrease in bodyweight in the control (P<0.001) but not with any of the fluid treatments. MAIN LIMITATIONS A small sample size of healthy, euhydrated horses and a relatively short duration of fluid administration was used. CONCLUSIONS Rectal fluid administration requires clinical evaluation, but may offer an inexpensive, safe alternative or adjunct to i.v. fluid administration, particularly when administration via NGT is not possible or contraindicated.

Govender J, Postma I, Wood D, Sibanda W. Is there an association between central venous pressure measurement and ultrasound assessment of the inferior vena cava? Afr J Emerg Med 2018; 8:106-109. [PMID: 30456158 PMCID: PMC6223593 DOI: 10.1016/j.afjem.2018.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2017] [Revised: 03/22/2018] [Accepted: 03/31/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early assessment of volume status is paramount in critically ill patients. Central venous pressure (CVP) measurement and ultrasound assessment of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are both used for volume assessment in the emergency centre. Recent data is conflicting over whether there is a correlation between CVP and ultrasound assessment of the IVC. METHODS This was a retrospective review of an audit previously performed in the Emergency Unit of Ngwelezane Hospital in Kwazulu-Natal. The audit involved measuring inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVC-CI) within 5 min of CVP measurement. In this retrospective study, audit data were analysed to determine if an association exists. RESULTS Twenty-four patients were included. The median age of participants was 36 (IQR 42) years (95% CI 33-56). The median time to ultrasound was 18.6 (52.5) h (95% CI 7.5-36.2). The mean CVP was 13.7 ± 7.7 cm H2O and mean IVC-CI was 39.4 ± 17.8%. Based on a Pearson correlation test, there was a weak negative correlation between CVP and IVC-CI, which was not statistically significant (r = -0.05, n = 24, p = 0.81, 95% CI -0.5 to 0.4) for all participants. However, among females there was a moderate negative correlation between CVP and IVC-CI, which was not statistically significant (r = -0.43, n = 7, p = 0.34, 95% CI -0.9 to 0.5), while among males there was a weak positive correlation, which was not statistically significant (r = 0.16, n = 17, p = 0.53, 95% CI -0.3 to 0.6). DISCUSSION There is no significant correlation between CVP and IVC-CI. Further validation research is required to support our preliminary findings of no significant correlation between CVP measurement and ultrasound assessment of the IVC. CVP and IVC ultrasound should be used as clinical adjuncts, and not as stand-alone measures of volume assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE we have developed a handheld device for noninvasive quantitative assessment of jugular venous pressure (JVP). METHODS we used a single crystal ultrasound coupled to a force-sensing load cell to measure JVP based on the force necessary to collapse the internal jugular vein (IJV) walls. We used a gelatin-based model system of the IJV to test the ability of single crystal ultrasound to identify the IJV and verified the cross-sectional position and diameter of the vessels with conventional imaging ultrasound. We also tested our prototype device on healthy human volunteers. RESULTS experiments on model system demonstrated that vessel diameters determined with single crystal ultrasound were in close agreement with the diameters derived from conventional 2-D ultrasound. Proof-of-concept human experiments demonstrate that single crystal ultrasound can detect the IJV in basal and collapsed states, as compared to gold-standard sonography (insert stats). Assessment of JVP in human volunteers was physiologically consistent with and sensitive to postural changes (supine JVP 6.6 ± 2.4 mmHg; standing JVP 4.2 ± 1.9 mmHg (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION noninvasive assessment of JVP could prove valuable in informing rapid clinical decision-making across various pathologies and conditions leading to derangements in intravascular volume status.

Abstract
Background This study investigated the ability of pulse pressure variation (PPV) and pleth variability index (PVI) to predict fluid responsiveness of patients undergoing spinal surgery in the prone position. Patients and methods A total of 53 patients undergoing posterior lumbar spinal fusion in the prone position on a Jackson table were studied. PPV, PVI, and hemodynamic and respiratory variables were measured both before and after the administration of 6 mL/kg colloid in both the supine and prone positions. Fluid responsiveness was defined as a 15% or greater increase in stroke volume index, as assessed by esophageal Doppler monitor after fluid loading. Results In the supine position, 40 patients were responders. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for PPV and PVI were 0.783 [95% CI 0.648–0.884, P<0.001] and 0.814 (95% CI 0.684–0.908, P<0.001), respectively. The optimal cut-off values of PPV and PVI were 10% (sensitivity 75%, specificity 62%) and 8% (sensitivity 78%, specificity 77%), respectively. In the prone position, 27 patients were responders. The areas under the ROC curves for PPV and PVI were 0.781 (95% CI 0.646–0.883, P<0.001) and 0.756 (95% CI 0.618–0.863, P<0.001), respectively. The optimal cut-off values of PPV and PVI were 7% (sensitivity 82%, specificity 62%) and 8% (sensitivity 67%, specificity 69%), respectively. Conclusion Both PPV and PVI were able to predict fluid responsiveness; their predictive abilities were maintained in the prone position.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical assessment of intravascular volume status is challenging. In humans, ultrasonographic assessment of the inferior vena cava diameter, directly or as a ratio to the aortic diameter is used to estimate intravascular volume status. OBJECTIVES To ultrasonographically obtain reference values (RV) for caudal vena cava diameter (CVCD ), area (CVCa ) and aortic ratios using 3 views in awake healthy dogs. ANIMALS One hundred and twenty-six healthy adult dogs from clients, students, faculty, or staff. METHODS Prospective, multicenter, observational study. Two observer pairs evaluated CVCD by a longitudinal subxiphoid view (SV), a transverse 11th-13th right hepatic intercostal view (HV), and a longitudinal right paralumbar view (PV). Inter-rater agreements were estimated using concordance correlation coefficients (CCC). For body weight (BW)-dependent variables, RVs were calculated using allometric scaling for variables with a CCC ≥ 0.7. RESULTS The CCC was ≤0.43 for the CVC/aorta ratio at the PV and ≤0.43 in both inspiration and expiration for CVC at the SV. The RVs using allometric scaling for CVCa at the HV for inspiration, expiration, and for CVCD at the PV were 6.16 × BW0.762 , 7.24 × BW0.787 , 2.79 × BW0.390 , respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE The CVCD , measured at the HV and PV in healthy awake dogs of various breeds has good inter-rater agreement suggesting these sites are reliable in measuring CVCD . Established RVs for CVCD for these sites need further comparison to results obtained in hypovolemic and hypervolemic dogs to determine their usefulness to evaluate volume status in dogs.

Hemodynamic Evaluation of Nonselective β-Blockers in Patients with Cirrhosis and Refractory Ascites. Gastroenterol Res Pract 2018; 2018:4098210.

Abstract
Background Nonselective β-blockers (NSBB) have been associated with increased incidence of paracentesis-induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD) and reduced survival in patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites. Aim To prospectively evaluate a hemodynamic response to NSBB in cirrhotics listed for liver transplantation with refractory ascites undergoing large volume paracentesis (LVP). Methods Patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites, with an indication to start NSBB in primary prophylaxis for variceal bleeding, were enrolled. During two consecutive LVP, while being, respectively, off and on NSBB, cardiac output (CO), systemic vascular resistances (SVR), peripheral vascular resistances (PVR), and plasma renin activity (PRA) were noninvasively assessed. Results Seventeen patients were enrolled, and 10 completed the study. Before NSBB introduction, SVR (1896 to 1348 dyn·s·cm-5; p = 0.028) and PVR (47 to 30 mmHg·min·dl·ml-1; p = 0.04) significantly decreased after LVP, while CO showed an increasing trend (3.9 to 4.5 l/m; p = 0.06). After NSBB introduction, LVP was not associated with a significant increase in CO (3.4 to 3.8 l/m; p = 0.13) nor with a significant decrease in SVR (2002 versus 1798 dyn·s·cm-5; p = 0.1). Incidence of PICD was not increased after NSBB introduction. Conclusion The negative inotropic effect of NSBB was counterbalanced by a smaller decrease of vascular resistances after LVP, probably due to splanchnic β2-blockade. This pilot study showed that NSBB introduction may be void of detrimental hemodynamic effects after LVP in cirrhotics with refractory ascites.

Abstract
The regulation of body fluid balance is a key concern in health and disease and comprises three concepts. The first concept pertains to the relationship between total body water (TBW) and total effective solute and is expressed in terms of the tonicity of the body fluids. Disturbances in tonicity are the main factor responsible for changes in cell volume, which can critically affect brain cell function and survival. Solutes distributed almost exclusively in the extracellular compartment (mainly sodium salts) and in the intracellular compartment (mainly potassium salts) contribute to tonicity, while solutes distributed in TBW have no effect on tonicity. The second body fluid balance concept relates to the regulation and measurement of abnormalities of sodium salt balance and extracellular volume. Estimation of extracellular volume is more complex and error prone than measurement of TBW. A key function of extracellular volume, which is defined as the effective arterial blood volume (EABV), is to ensure adequate perfusion of cells and organs. Other factors, including cardiac output, total and regional capacity of both arteries and veins, Starling forces in the capillaries, and gravity also affect the EABV. Collectively, these factors interact closely with extracellular volume and some of them undergo substantial changes in certain acute and chronic severe illnesses. Their changes result not only in extracellular volume expansion, but in the need for a larger extracellular volume compared with that of healthy individuals. Assessing extracellular volume in severe illness is challenging because the estimates of this volume by commonly used methods are prone to large errors in many illnesses. In addition, the optimal extracellular volume may vary from illness to illness, is only partially based on volume measurements by traditional methods, and has not been determined for each illness. Further research is needed to determine optimal extracellular volume levels in several illnesses. For these reasons, extracellular volume in severe illness merits a separate third concept of body fluid balance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with intra-abdominal infections need to achieve adequate hemodynamic status before being taken to the operating room. Multiple parameters (urinary output [UOP], vital signs, inferior vena cava collapsibility index, and central venous pressure) may be used to assess hemodynamic response to fluid resuscitation, but the options are few in limited-resource settings. This study aimed at assessing if a bedside-performed ultrasound to assess the inferior vena cava collapsibility index is superior to UOP in assessing hemodynamic response to fluid resuscitation. METHODS All adult patients presenting to a tertiary referral hospital in the capital city of Rwanda with intra-abdominal infection requiring intravenous fluid (IVF) resuscitation before operation were included in this study. Before IVF administration, the baseline inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVC-CI) and vital parameters were recorded. After initiation of IVF resuscitation, serial measurements of IVC-CI and UOP were recorded every 2 h until the decision was made to take the patient to the operating room. RESULTS Twenty-four patients were enrolled. The mean duration of symptoms was 4.7 days. Four patients (16%) had altered mental status as a presenting symptom. Half of all patients had generalized peritonitis due to gangrenous bowel as the primary diagnosis (n = 12). The mean difference between time of hemodynamic response based on IVC-CI versus UOP was 2 h (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Measurement of the IVC-CI can provide early detection of hemodynamic response to fluid therapy in patients with intra-abdominal infection with spontaneous breathing compared to UOP. Future research should utilize this parameter in the preoperative management of hemodynamically unstable patients.

Abstract
Design and objectives To identify and compare how intensive care unit specialists in the United Kingdom and Australia and New Zealand self-reportedly define, assess and manage fluid overload in critically ill patients using a structured online questionnaire. Results We assessed 219 responses. Australia and New Zealand and United Kingdom intensive care unit specialists reported using clinical examination findings, bedside tools and radiological features to assess fluid status, diagnose fluid overload and initiate fluid removal in the critically ill. An elevated central venous pressure is not regarded as helpful in diagnosing fluid overload and targeting a clinician-set fluid balance is the most popular management strategy. Renal replacement therapy is used ahead of more diuretic therapy in patients who are oligo/anuric, or when diuretic therapy has not generated an adequate response. Conclusions This self-reported account of practice by United Kingdom and Australia and New Zealand intensivists demonstrates that fluid overload remains poorly defined with variability in both management and practice.

Abstract
Background: Early fluid resuscitation is a key aspect in the successful management of critically ill patients, but the optimal goal for volume control after the acute stage of critical illness remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of bioimpedance spectrometry for fluid management in critically ill patients. Methods: In this prospective observational study, patients who consented to participate were screened within the first 24 hours of admission to a medical intensive care unit (ICU) from February 4, 2015, to January 31, 2016. Information on demographics, comorbidities, primary reasons for admission, baseline laboratory data, and ventilator or inotropic use were documented. Data of fluid intake, fluid output, and body weight were recorded for the first 3 days of ICU admission. Bioimpedance spectrometry was performed on the first and third days after ICU admission. All participants were followed until death or hospital discharge. Results: Of the 140 enrolled patients (median age: 70 years, interquartile range: 60-77 years), 23 (16.4%) patients died during hospitalization. Independent predictors of hospital mortality were Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores (per 1 point increase, odds ratio [OR]: 1.101) and overhydration (OH) volume on the first day (per 1 L increase, OR: 1.216). Compared to normal OH status (OH volume between −1 and 1 L), hyper OH status (OH volume < −1 L) on the third day after ICU admission was an independent predictor of hospital death (OR: 7.609). Normal OH status on the third day was associated with greater numbers of ICU-free and ventilator-free days. Conclusion: Bioimpedance spectrometry can be used to predict outcomes in critically ill patients. Increased OH volume on day 1 and hyper OH volume on day 3 of ICU admission are associated with a greater risk of hospital mortality. Volume status on day 3 is associated with durations of ventilator use and ICU stay.
