Skin sympathetic nerve activity as a biomarker for neurologic recovery during therapeutic hypothermia for cardiac arrest. Heart Rhythm 2021; 18:1162-1170. [PMID: 33689908 PMCID: PMC8254741 DOI: 10.1016/j.hrthm.2021.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Revised: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Targeted temperature management (TTM) improves neurologic outcome after cardiac arrest. However, better neurologic prognostication is needed. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that noninvasive recording of skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) and its association with heart rate (HR) during TTM may serve as a biomarker of neurologic status. METHODS SKNA recordings were analyzed from 29 patients undergoing TTM. Patients were grouped based on Clinical Performance Category (CPC) score into group 1 (CPC 1-2) representing a good neurologic outcome and group 2 (CPC 3-5) representing a poor neurologic outcome. RESULTS Of the 29 study participants, 18 (62%) were deemed to have poor neurologic outcome. At all timepoints, low average skin sympathetic nerve activity (aSKNA) was associated with poor neurologic outcome (odds ratio 22.69; P = .002) and remained significant (P = .03) even when adjusting for presenting clinical factors. The changes in aSKNA and HR during warming in group 1 were significantly correlated (ρ = 0.49; P <.001), even when adjusting for corresponding temperature and mean arterial pressure measurements (P = .017), whereas this correlation was not observed in group 2. Corresponding to high aSKNA, there was increased nerve burst activity during warming in group 1 compared to group 2 (0.739 ± 0.451 vs 0.176 ± 0.231; P = .013). CONCLUSION Neurologic recovery was retrospectively associated with SKNA. Patients undergoing TTM who did not achieve neurologic recovery were associated with low SKNA and lacked a significant correlation between SKNA and HR. These preliminary results indicate that SKNA may potentially be a useful biomarker to predict neurologic status in patients undergoing TTM.

Primary Care Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment for Adolescent Substance Use in Lebanon: A National Cross-sectional Study. Subst Abuse 2021; 15:1178221821994608. [PMID: 33814913 PMCID: PMC7989113 DOI: 10.1177/1178221821994608] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 01/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Substance use among adolescents is on the rise globally. Adolescents rarely seek help for problematic substance use and healthcare professionals can easily fail to identify adolescents with risky substance use. There is therefore a significant global need for substance use screening by healthcare professionals followed by appropriate intervention. Screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) is an evidence-based practice that enables clinicians to determine adolescents' risk for substance use and intervene accordingly. However, little effort has been placed on empowering primary care clinicians to use it in Lebanon. We explored the attitudes, perceptions, and practices of primary care nurses and physicians regarding adolescent SBIRT use. METHODS The study used a cross-sectional multisite survey design targeting urban and rural areas in Lebanon. A national sample of 140 physicians and nurses was recruited using random sampling stratified by governorate. Participants completed mailed or online surveys addressing their practices, attitudes, role perceptions, and self-efficacy regarding SBIRT use. RESULTS This study revealed that 57.8% of healthcare professionals were not familiar with the SBIRT model and that 76.2% did not practice SBIRT in their setting. The majority addressed the problem of substance use through educating and counseling adolescents about the dangers of substance use (84.2%) and encouraged them to stop (82%) but only 2% reported using standardized instruments for substance use screening. Most participants (88.1%) reported their willingness to use SBIRT in their clinical practice and 92.4% expressed an interest in receiving SBIRT training. Overall, the results showed positive attitudes (M = 4.38, SD = 0.89) and role responsibility (M = 4.47, SD = 1.62) toward addressing substance use in adolescents, in addition to a high level of perceived self-efficacy in addressing substance use (M = 4.04, SD = 0.92). Our results showed minimal differences between nurses' and physicians' perceptions and self-efficacy regarding SBIRT use. CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms the lack of a standardized approach toward adolescent substance use screening and intervention by primary healthcare providers in Lebanon but revealed the readiness and willingness to receive training and proper support to adopt an evidence-based approach such as SBIRT.

Abstract
Targeted temperature management, also known as therapeutic hypothermia (TH), is recommended for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Both internal or external methods of cooling can be applied. Individuals resuscitated from OHCA frequently develop postarrest myocardial dysfunction resulting in decreased cardiac output and left ventricular systolic function. This dysfunction is usually transient and improves with spontaneous recovery over time. Echocardiogram (ECHO) can be a vital tool for the assessment and management of these patients. This manuscript reviewed methods available for TH after OHCA and reviews role of ECHO in the diagnosis and prognosis in this setting.

Abstract
ABSTRACT There is a link between excessive alcohol drinking and an increased risk to develop cardiovascular disease, including alcoholic cardiomyopathy. This association warrants further research on the potential utility for the electrocardiogram (ECG) in the participatory management of the chronic consequences of alcohol use disorder (AUD). Our goal is to enhance understanding about the pernicious role alcohol plays on cardiac health using the ECG, an accessible, cost-effective, validated tool to inform novel targeted treatments for AUD. In this systematic review of human studies, we examine the relationship between abnormal clinically significant changes to ECG variables and excessive alcohol drinking with the goal of identifying key patterns specific to quantity of alcohol consumed. Three independent reviewers and one consensus reviewer, adhering to the PRISMA guidelines, conducted an initial review on studies published from database inception to April 19, 2019, using PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and COCHRANE databases. The initial search generated 2,225 articles. The final selected number included 153 original articles. This systematic review provides evidence of patterns of clinically significant changes to ECG variables as a consequence of excessive alcohol consumption. Future directions include investigating whether a real-time assessment, such as the ECG, in conjunction with other key behavioral and cardiac measures, can help clinicians and patients realize the progressive and insidious cardiac damage because of excessive alcohol consumption. This theory-guided nurse science review supports the development of personalized symptom monitoring to deliver tailored feedback that illuminate risk factors as a potentially transformative approach in the management of AUD.

Abstract
Problem gambling is a major public health concern, especially among persons who are precariously housed, living in poverty or have complex health and social needs. Problem gambling has been connected to negative health and social outcomes; however, current healthcare services rarely screen for problem gambling. With support from community partners, the purpose of this study was to understand factors related to screening for problem gambling. Concept mapping, a mixed-method approach driven by participatory involvement, was conducted with healthcare and social service providers from Ontario, Canada in 2019. Three phases were conducted with participants either in-person or online: Brainstorming, Sorting/Rating and Mapping. Brainstorming sessions were conducted to generate statements, guided by the focal prompt: "If you were directed to routinely screen for problem gambling, what would help you do this in your daily practice?" Participants sorted statements into categories and rated them based on their importance and feasibility. A mapping session was conducted with participants to co-create visual representations of the data. Thirty participants took part in the in-person or online concept mapping sessions. During the brainstorming sessions, participants generated 213 statements, which the research team condensed into a final list of 45 statements. Participants decided that the five-cluster map best represented these 45 statements and labelled the five clusters: (a) top level (macro), (b) screening tool, (c) staff skills and training, (d) screening, and (e) team resources and support. Staff skills and training was rated as the most important and the most realistic cluster to implement, while screening was rated relatively as the least important when compared to the other clusters. Team resources and support was rated relatively as the least realistic cluster. By identifying the needs of healthcare and social service providers, this study co-developed actionable suggestions that will assist providers in routinely screening for problem gambling.

J Surg Res 2017; 215:196-203.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapeutic hypothermia (HT) in severe septic shock is associated with prolonged survival. We hypothesized that moderate HT would prolong survival and modulate the inflammatory response in rats with septic shock by exerting its therapeutic effect on splenic leukocytes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Severe septic shock was created in rats by cecal ligation and incision (CLI). One hour after CLI or laparotomy, rats were randomized to sham, normothermia (NT), or 4 h of HT followed by 2 h of rewarming. HT (31 ± 1°C) was induced using a cooling blanket and monitored via a rectal temperature probe. RESULTS Survival duration was 2.78 ± 1.0 h in NT rats and 8.33 ± 0.32 h in HT rats (n = 8/group, P < 0.0001). In separate groups, 3 h after CLI, the spleen weight was significantly smaller in NT rats (769 ± 100 mg) than in HT rats (947 ± 157 mg, P = 0.04). Fluorescent immunostaining of formyl peptide receptors on leukocytes in spleen tissue showed considerably higher formyl peptide receptor expression in HT rats than in NT rats. Significantly elevated proinflammatory cytokines and myeloperoxidase enzyme in plasma were found in NT rats compared with HT rats. Anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-10, was significantly higher in HT rats. Both proinflammatory cytokines and plasma myeloperoxidase were significantly reduced in splenectomized NT rats. CONCLUSIONS Moderate hypothermic therapy significantly prolongs the survival duration of rats with severe septic shock. HT dampens the inflammatory response during septic shock by modulating the spleen to an anti-inflammatory mode and preventing the spleen from releasing activated splenic leukocytes into the blood.
