Huang W, Huang Y, Ke L, Hu C, Chen P, Hu B. Perspectives for capillary refill time in clinical practice for sepsis. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2024; 84:103743. [PMID: 38896965 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2024.103743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/03/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Capillary refill time (CRT) is defined as the time taken for color to return to an external capillary bed after pressure is applied to cause blanching. Recent studies demonstrated the benefits of CRT in guiding fluid therapy for sepsis. However, lack of consistency among physicians in how to perform and interpret CRT has led to a low interobserver agreement for this assessment tool, which prevents its availability in sepsis clinical settings. OBJECTIVE To give physicians a concise overview of CRT and explore recent evidence on its reliability and value in the management of sepsis. RESEARCH DESIGN A narrative review. RESULTS This narrative review summarizes the factors affecting CRT values, for example, age, sex, temperature, light, observation techniques, work experience, training level and differences in CRT measurement methods. The methods of reducing the variability of CRT are synthesized. Based on studies with highly reproducible CRT measurements and an excellent inter-rater concordance, we recommend the standardized CRT assessment method. The threshold of normal CRT values is discussed. The application of CRT in different phases of sepsis management is summarized. CONCLUSIONS Recent data confirm the value of CRT in critically ill patients. CRT should be detected by trained physicians using standardized methods and reducing the effect of ambient-related factors. Its association with severe infection, microcirculation, tissue perfusion response, organ dysfunction and adverse outcomes makes this approach a very attractive tool in sepsis. Further studies should confirm its value in the management of sepsis. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE As a simple assessment, CRT deserves more attention even though it has not been widely applied at the bedside. CRT could provide nursing staff with patient's microcirculatory status, which may help to develop individualized nursing plans and improve the patient's care quality and treatment outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Describing mitochondrial oxygenation (mitoPO2) and its within- and between-subject variability over time after 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) plaster application in healthy volunteers. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Measurements were performed in Leiden University Medical Center, the Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS Healthy volunteers enrolled from July to September 2020. INTERVENTIONS Two ALA plasters were placed parasternal left and right, with a 3-hour time interval, to examine the influence of the calendar time on the value of mitoPO2. We measured mitoPO2 at 4, 5, 7, 10, 28, and 31 hours after ALA plaster 1 application, and at 4, 5, 7, 25, and 28 hours after ALA plaster 2 application. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES At each time point, five mitoPO2 measurements were performed. Within-subject variability was defined as the standard deviation (SD) of the mean of five measurements per timepoint of a study participant. The between-subject variability was the SD of the mean mitoPO2 value of the study population per timepoint. RESULTS In 16 completed inclusions, median mitoPO2 values and within-subject variability were relatively similar over time at all time points for both plasters. An increase in overall between-subject variability was seen after 25 hours ALA plaster time (19.6 mm Hg vs 23.9 mm Hg after respectively 10 and 25 hours ALA plaster time). CONCLUSIONS The mitoPO2 values and within-subject variability remained relatively stable over time in healthy volunteers. An increase in between-subject variability was seen after 25 hours ALA plaster time warranting replacement of the ALA plaster one day after its application.

THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY. IN PRACTICE 2024; 12:1202-1214.e3. [PMID: 38378094 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2024.02.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early recognition of perioperative anaphylaxis, a life-threatening, usually IgE-mediated, immediate hypersensitivity, is essential, but bedside diagnosis is not always straightforward because clinical presentation may vary. OBJECTIVES To describe early characteristics of perioperative immediate hypersensitivity, with special attention to cutaneous phenotypes, and identify risk factors for IgE-mediated allergy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from adults with suspected perioperative immediate hypersensitivity who were investigated in two academic medical centers. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted to evaluate associations among patient, clinical, and paraclinical characteristics and IgE-mediated allergy. RESULTS Of 145 enrolled patients, 99 (68.3%) and 46 (31.7%) were respectively categorized in the IgE-mediated allergy and non-allergy groups. Cutaneous vasoconstriction phenotype (pallor, piloerection, thelerethism, and sweating with or without cyanosis) occurring within minutes (or even 1 minute) of drug exposure was strongly associated with IgE-mediated allergy (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 28.02; 95% CI, 4.41-305.18). IgE-mediated allergy was always life-threatening in this setting. Other early factors associated with allergy were low end-tidal carbon dioxide 25 mm Hg or less (aOR = 5.45; 95% CI, 2.39-26.45), low mean arterial pressure 60 mm Hg or less (aOR = 3.82; 95% CI, 1.28-17.31), and early cutaneous vasodilation (erythema, urticaria, and/or angioedema) (aOR = 2.78; 95% CI, 0.73-20.54). Late cutaneous vasodilation after restoration of hemodynamics corroborated the diagnosis of allergy (aOR = 23.67; 95% CI, 4.94-205.09). The best-fit model including three readily available variables (cutaneous phenotype involving the three modalities [reference lack of cutaneous signs], low mean arterial pressure, and low end-tidal carbon dioxide) had an area under the curve of 0.91. CONCLUSIONS Cutaneous vasoconstriction phenotype is associated with the strongest risk of life-threatening allergy and thus may be regarded as pathognomonic of perioperative IgE-mediated anaphylaxis.

Abstract
Sepsis/septic shock activates the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) to deal with the infection stress. However, an imbalanced or maladaptive response due to excessive or uncontrolled activation characterizes autonomic dysfunction. Our hypothesis was that reducing this excessive activation of the autonomic nervous system would impact positively in sepsis. Using ganglionic blockers as a pharmacological approach, the main aim of the present report was to assess the role of ganglionic transmission in the vascular dysfunction associated with sepsis.Sepsis was induced in rats by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). One hour after CLP surgery, rats were treated subcutaneously with hexamethonium (15 mg/kg; ganglionic blocker), pentolinium (5 mg/kg; a blocker with a higher selectivity for sympathetic ganglia compared to hexamethonium), or vehicle (PBS). Basal blood pressure and the response to adrenergic agonists were evaluated at 6 and 24 h after CLP surgery. Reactivity to vasoconstrictors, nitric oxide (NO) synthase 2 (NOS-2) expression, IL-1 and TNF plasma levels, and density of α1 adrenergic receptors were evaluated in the aorta 24 h after CLP.Septic shock resulted in hypotension and hyporesponsiveness to norepinephrine and phenylephrine, increased plasma cytokine levels and NOS-2 expression in the aorta, and decreased α1 receptor density in the same vessel. Pentolinium but not hexamethonium recovered responsiveness and α1 adrenergic receptor density in the aorta. Both blockers normalized the in vivo response to vasoconstrictors, and reduced plasma IL-1 and NOx levels and NOS-2 expression in the aorta.Blockade of ganglionic sympathetic transmission reduced the vascular dysfunction in experimental sepsis. This beneficial effect seems to be, at least in part, due to the preservation of α1 adrenergic receptor density and to reduced NOS-2 expression and may lead to adjuvant ways to treat human sepsis.

Abstract
Nanoparticles has surrounded the population by their use in electronics, medicine and cosmetics. The exposure to nanoparticles coming from different sources is uncountable as the amount of nanoparticles in which a person is exposed daily. In this direction and considering that microcirculation is the main and most affected system by nanoparticles in the first moment, responsible to transport and deal with nanoparticles internally, we evaluated a massive exposure (1 g/Kg) of a well-known nanoparticle (hydroxyapatite) and the impact on the microvessels. The results showed a massive destruction of venules, arterioles, and capillaries when nHAPs were administered topically. However, systemic administration of high doses of nHAP did not affect microcirculation but altered biochemical parameters of blood samples from treated animals. The data demonstrated that even well documented nanoparticles at high doses might affect the whole-body homeostasis. Finally, the results raise the necessity for further investigation of the effect of nanoparticles in microcirculation and the impact in the whole-body homeostasis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: After severe injury, optical measures of microvascular blood flow (MBF) decrease and do not normalize with resuscitation to normal blood pressure. These changes are associated with organ dysfunction, coagulopathy, and death. However, the pathophysiology is not well understood. Several possible pathways could also contribute to the development of trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC). A small-animal model of trauma-related MBF derangement that persists after resuscitation and includes TIC would facilitate further study. Parametric contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is particularly advantageous in this setting, because it noninvasively assesses MBF in large, deep vascular beds. We sought to develop such a model, measuring MBF with CEUS. Methods: Sixteen male Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized, ventilated, and cannulated. Rats were subjected to either no injury (sham group) or a standardized polytrauma and pressure-targeted arterial catheter hemorrhage with subsequent whole blood resuscitation (trauma group). At prespecified time points, CEUS measurements of uninjured quadriceps muscle, viscoelastic blood clot strength, and complete blood counts were taken. Results: After resuscitation, blood pressure normalized, but MBF decreased and remained low for the rest of the protocol. This was primarily driven by a decrease in blood volume with a relative sparing of blood velocity. Viscoelastic blood clot strength and platelet count also decreased and remained low throughout the protocol. Conclusion: We present a rat model of MBF derangement in uninjured skeletal muscle and coagulopathy after polytrauma that persists after resuscitation with whole blood to normal macrohemodynamics. Parametric CEUS analysis shows that this change is primarily due to microvascular obstruction. This platform can be used to develop a deeper understanding of this important process.

Abstract
Significance The study of sublingual microcirculation offers valuable insights into vascular changes and overcomes some limitations of peripheral microcirculation assessment. Videomicroscopy and pulse oximetry have been used to assess microcirculation, providing insights into organ perfusion beyond macrohemodynamics parameters. However, both techniques have important limitations that preclude their use in clinical practice. Aim To address this, we propose a non-invasive approach using photoplethysmography (PPG) to assess microcirculation. Approach Two experiments were performed on different samples of 31 subjects. First, multi-wavelength, finger PPG signals were compared before and while applying pressure on the sensor to determine if PPG signals could detect changes in peripheral microcirculation. For the second experiment, PPG signals were acquired from the ventral region of the tongue, aiming to assess the microcirculation through features calculated from the PPG signal and its first derivative. Results In experiment 1, 13 out of 15 features extracted from green PPG signals showed significant differences (p < 0.05 ) before and while pressure was applied to the sensor, suggesting that green light could detect flow distortion in superficial capillaries. In experiment 2, 15 features showed potential application of PPG signal for sublingual microcirculation assessment. Conclusions The PPG signal and its first derivative have the potential to effectively assess microcirculation when measured from the fingertip and the tongue. The assessment of sublingual microcirculation was done through the extraction of 15 features from the green PPG signal and its first derivative. Future studies are needed to standardize and gain a deeper understanding of the evaluated features.

Abstract
Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a severe disease with a high prevalence and a 3-15% mortality worldwide, and premature activation of zymogen for any reason is the initial factor for the onset of SAP. Gallstone disease and heavy alcohol consumption are the two most common etiologies of SAP. Persistent inflammation, immunosuppression and catabolism syndrome (PICS) is a life-threatening illness, and there are no effective treatments. The relapse state of PICS mainly leads to high mortality due to septic shock or severe trauma, both of which are dangerous and challenging conditions for clinicians. Thus, it is important for medical staff to identify patients at high risk of PICS and to master the prevention and treatment of PICS in patients with SAP. The present review aims to increase the understanding of the pathogenesis of PICS, produce evidence for PICS diagnosis and highlight clinical treatment for PICS in patients with SAP. With this information, clinical workers could implement standardized and integrated measures at an early stage of SAP to stop its progression to PICS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This observational study was conducted to investigate capillary refill time (CRT) during the early phase of ICU admission in relationship with microvascular flow alteration and outcome in critically ill patients. DESIGN Prospective, observational, pilot study. SETTING ICU in a university hospital. PATIENTS Two hundred eighty-two critically ill adult patients admitted to the ICU. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS All patients underwent simultaneous measurements by CRT and sidestream dark field imaging within 24 hours of ICU admission. Other clinical data such as demographic characteristics, hemodynamics, laboratory values, treatment, and physiologic parameters were also included simultaneously. Microcirculatory measurements were performed at 10.2 ± 5.7 hours after ICU admission. Of the 282 included patients, 106 (37.6%) were female, the median (interquartile range) age was 63 years (53-74 yr), and the median Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score was 5 (2-7). The primary finding was the association between CRT and simultaneous the condition of peripheral circulation (microvascular flow index [MFI]: r = -0.4430, p < 0.001; proportion of perfused vessels: r = -0.3708, p < 0.001; heterogeneity index: r = 0.4378, p < 0.001; perfused vessel density: r = -0.1835, p = 0.0020; except total vessel density: p = 0.9641; and De Backer score: p = 0.5202) in critically ill patients. In addition, this relationship was also maintained in subgroups. Microcirculatory flow abnormalities, 28-day mortality, and SOFA score appeared to be more severe for increasing CRT. In a multivariable analysis, prolonged CRT was independently associated with microvascular flow abnormalities (MFI < 2.6; odds ratio [OR], 1.608; 95% CI, 2.1-10.2; p < 0.001). Similarly, multivariable analysis identified CRT as an independent predictor of 28-day mortality (OR, 1.296; 95% CI, 1.078-1.558; p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS In our ICU population, a single-spot prolonged CRT was independently associated with abnormal microcirculation and increased mortality.

Comparison of gastric reactance with commonly used perfusion markers in a swine hypovolemic shock model. Intensive Care Med Exp 2022; 10:49. [PMCID: PMC9674824 DOI: 10.1186/s40635-022-00476-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The gut has been hypothesized to be a protagonist tissue in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) for the past three decades. Gastric reactance (XL) is a potential perfusion marker derived from gastric impedance spectroscopy (GIS), which is an emerging tool through which living tissue can be continuously measured to determine its pathophysiological evolution. This study aimed to compare the performance of XL [positive predictive values (PPV), negative predictive values (NPV), and area under the curve (AUC)] against commonly used perfusion markers before and during hypovolemic shock in swine subjects. Methods Prospective, controlled animal trial with two groups, control group (CG) N = 5 and shock (MAP ≤ 48 mmHg) group (SG) N = 16. Comparison time points were defined as T-2 (2 h before shock), T-1 (1 h before shock), T0 (shock), T1 (1 h after shock), and T2 (2 h after shock). Shock severity was assessed through blood gases, systemic and hemodynamic variables, and via histological examination for assessing inflammation-edema and detachment in the gastric mucosa. Macroscopic assessment of the gastric mucosa was defined in five levels (0—normal mucosa, 1—stippling or epithelial hemorrhage, 2—pale mucosa, 3—violet mucosa, and 4—marmoreal mucosa). Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves of perfusion markers and XL were calculated to identify optimal cutoff values and their individual ability to predict hypovolemic shock. Results Comparison among the CG and the SG showed statistically significant differences in XL measurements at T-1, T0, T1, and T2, while lactate showed statistically significant differences until T1 and T2. Statistically significant differences were detected in mucosa class (p < 0.001) and in inflammation-edema in the gastric body and the fundus (p = 0.021 and p = 0.043). The performance of the minimum XL value per subject per event (XL_Min) was better (0.81 ≤ AUC ≤ 0.96, 0.93 ≤ PPV ≤ 1.00, 0.45 ≤ NPV ≤ 0.83) than maximum lactate value (Lac_Max) per subject per event (0.29 ≤ AUC ≤ 0.82, 0.82 ≤ PPV ≤ 0.91, 0.24 ≤ NPV ≤ 0.82). Cutoff values for XL_Min show progressive increases at each time point, while cutoff values for Lac_Max increase only at T2. Conclusions XL proved to be an indirect and consistent marker of inadequate gastric mucosal perfusion, which shows significant and detectable changes before commonly used markers of global perfusion under the hypovolemic shock conditions outlined in this work.

Time course, factors related to, and prognostic impact of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane flow in cardiogenic shock. ESC Heart Fail 2022; 10:568-577. [PMID: 36369748 PMCID: PMC9871705 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14132] [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: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is currently one of the most used devices in refractory cardiogenic shock. However, there is a lack of evidence on how to set the 'optimal' flow. We aimed to describe the evolution of VA-ECMO flows in a cardiogenic shock population and determine the risk factors of 'high-ECMO flow'. METHODS AND RESULTS A 7 year database of patients supported with VA-ECMO was used. Based on the median flow during the first 48 h of the VA-ECMO run, patients were classified as 'high-flow' or 'low-flow', respectively, when median ECMO flow was ≥3.6 or <3.6 L/min. Outcomes included rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia, ECMO-related complications, days on ECMO, days on mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit and hospitalization lengths of stay, and in-hospital and 60 day mortality. Risk factors of high-ECMO flow were assessed using univariate and multivariate cox regression. The study population included 209 patients on VA-ECMO, median age was 51 (40-59) years, and 78% were males. The most frequent aetiology leading to cardiogenic shock was end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy (57%), followed by acute myocardial infarction (23%) and fulminant myocarditis (17%). Among the 209 patients, 105 (50%) were classified as 'high-flow'. This group had a higher rate of ischaemic aetiology (16% vs. 30%, P = 0.023) and was sicker at admission, in terms of worse Simplified Acute Physiology Score II score [40 (26-58) vs. 56 (42-74), P < 0.001], higher lactate [3.6 (2.2-5.8) mmol/L vs. 5.2 (3-9.7) mmol/L, P < 0.001], and higher aspartate aminotransferase [97 (41-375) U/L vs. 309 (85-939) U/L, P < 0.001], among others. The 'low-flow' group had less ventilator-associated pneumonia (40% vs. 59%, P = 0.007) and less days on mechanical ventilation [4 (1.5-7.5) vs. 6 (3-12) days, P = 0.009]. No differences were found in lengths of stay or survival according to the ECMO flow. The multivariate analysis showed that risk factors independently associated with 'high-flow' were mechanical ventilation at cannulation [odds ratio (OR) 3.9, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.1-7.1] and pre-ECMO lactate (OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.0-1.2). CONCLUSIONS In patients with refractory cardiogenic shock supported with VA-ECMO, sicker patients had higher support since early phases, presenting thereafter higher rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia but similar survival compared with patients with lower flows.

Characteristics of sublingual microcirculatory changes during the early postoperative period following cardiopulmonary bypass-assisted cardiac surgery-a prospective cohort study. J Thorac Dis 2022; 14:3992-4002. [PMID: 36389306 PMCID: PMC9641360 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-22-1159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent microcirculatory dysfunction associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Interventions in the early resuscitation can be tailored to the changes of microcirculation and patient's need. However, there is usually an uncoupling of macrocirculatory and microcirculatory hemodynamics during resuscitation. Current research on the patterns of microcirculatory changes and recovery after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-assisted cardiac surgery is limited. This study aimed to analyze changes in the microcirculatory parameters after CPB and their correlation with macrocirculation and to explore the characteristics of microcirculatory changes following CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. METHODS Between December 2018 and January 2019, 24 adult patients with indwelling pulmonary artery catheters after elective cardiac surgery using CPB were enrolled in this study. Both microcirculatory and macrocirculatory parameters were collected at 0, 6, 16, and 24 hours after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Video images of sublingual microcirculation were analyzed to obtain the microcirculatory parameters, including total vascular density (TVD), perfused small vessel density (PSVD), the proportion of perfused small vessels (PPV), microvascular flow index (MFI), and flow heterogeneity index (HI). The characteristics of microcirculatory parameter change following cardiac surgery and the correlation between microcirculatory parameters and macroscopic hemodynamic indicators, oxygen metabolic indicators, and carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (PCO2gap) were analyzed. RESULTS There were significant differences in the changes of TVD (P=0.012) and PSVD (P=0.005) during the first 24 hours postoperatively in patients who underwent CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. The microcirculatory density parameters (TVD: r=-0.5059, P=0.0456; PVD: r=-0.5499, P=0.0273) were correlated with oxygen delivery index (DO2I) at 24 hours after surgery. The microcirculatory flow parameters (PPV: r=0.4370, P=0.0327; MFI: r=0.6496, P=0.0006; and HI: r=-0.5350, P=0.0071) had a strong correlation with PCO2gap at 0 hour after surgery. CONCLUSIONS TVD and PSVD might be two most sensitive indicators affected by CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. There was no consistency between microcirculation and macrocirculation until 24 hours following cardiac surgery, meaning the improvement of systemic hemodynamic indicators does not guarantee correspondently improvement in microcirculation. Early controlled oxygen supply after CPB-assisted cardiac surgery may be conducive to the resuscitation of patients to a certain extent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Improving tissue perfusion can improve clinical outcomes in surgical patients, where monitoring may aid clinicians in detecting adverse conditions and guide interventions. Transcutaneous monitoring (TCM) of oxygen (tcpO2) and carbon dioxide (tcpCO2) is a well-proven technology and could potentially serve as a measure of local circulation, perfusion and metabolism, but the clinical use is not thoroughly explored. The purpose of this proof-of-concept study was to investigate whether TCM of blood gasses could detect changes in perfusion during major vascular surgery. METHODS Ten patients with peripheral arterial disease scheduled for lower limb major arterial revascularization under general anaesthesia were consecutively included. TcpO2 and tcpCO2 were continuously recorded from anaesthesia induction until skin closure with a TCM monitor placed on both legs and the thorax. Peripheral oxygen saturation was kept ≥94% and mean arterial blood pressure ≥65 mmHg. The primary outcomes were changes in tcpO2 and tcpCO2 related to arterial clamping and declamping during the procedure and analyzed by paired statistics. RESULTS Femoral artery clamping resulted in a significant decrease in tcpO2 (-2.1 kPa, IQR-4.2; -0.8), p=.017)), followed by a significant increase in response to arterial declamping (5.5 kPa, IQR 0-7.3), p=.017)). Arterial clamping resulted in a statistically significant increase in tcpCO2 (0.9 kPa, IQR 0.3-5.4), p=.008)) and a significant decrease following declamping (-0.7 kPa, IQR -2.6; -0.2), p=.011)). CONCLUSION Transcutaneous monitoring of oxygen and carbon dioxide is a feasible method for detection of extreme changes in tissue perfusion during arterial clamping and declamping, and its use for improving patient outcomes should be explored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methylene blue is used as rescue therapy to treat catecholamine-refractory vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery. However, its microcirculatory effects remain poorly documented. OBJECTIVE We aimed to study microcirculatory abnormalities in refractory vasoplegic syndrome following cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and assess the effects of methylene blue. DESIGN A prospective open-label cohort study. SETTING 20-Bed ICU of a tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS 25 Adult patients receiving 1.5 mg kg-1 of methylene blue intravenously for refractory vasoplegic syndrome (defined as norepinephrine requirement more than 0.5 μg kg-1 min-1) to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) more than 65 mmHg and cardiac index (CI) more than 2.0 l min-1 m-2. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Complete haemodynamic set of measurements at baseline and 1 h after the administration of methylene blue. Sublingual microcirculation was investigated by sidestream dark field imaging to obtain microvascular flow index (MFI), total vessel density, perfused vessel density and heterogeneity index. Microvascular reactivity was assessed by peripheral near-infrared (IR) spectroscopy combined with a vascular occlusion test. We also performed a standardised measurement of capillary refill time. RESULTS Despite normalised CI (2.6 [2.0 to 3.8] l min-1 m-2) and MAP (66 [55 to 76] mmHg), patients with refractory vasoplegic syndrome showed severe microcirculatory alterations (MFI < 2.6). After methylene blue infusion, MFI significantly increased from 2.0 [0.1 to 2.5] to 2.2 [0.2 to 2.8] (P = 0.008), as did total vessel density from 13.5 [8.3 to 18.5] to 14.9 [10.1 to 14.7] mm mm-2 (P = 0.02) and perfused vessel density density from 7.4 [0.1 to 11.5] to 9.1 [0 to 20.1] mm mm-2 (P = 0.02), but with wide individual variation. Microvascular reactivity assessed by tissue oxygen resaturation speed also increased from 0.5 [0.1 to 1.8] to 0.7 [0.1 to 2.7]% s-1 (P = 0.002). Capillary refill time remained unchanged throughout the study. CONCLUSION In refractory vasoplegic syndrome following cardiac surgery, we found microcirculatory alterations despite normalised CI and MAP. The administration of methylene blue could improve microvascular perfusion and reactivity, and partially restore the loss of haemodynamic coherence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Monitoring the sublingual and oral microcirculation (SM-OM) using hand-held vital microscopes (HVMs) has provided valuable insight into the (patho)physiology of diseases. However, the microvascular anatomy in a healthy population has not been adequately described yet. METHODS Incident dark field-based HVM imaging was used to visualize the SM-OM. First, the SM was divided into four different fields; Field-a (between incisors-lingua), Field-b (between the canine-first premolar-lingua), Field-c (between the first-second premolar-lingua), Field-d (between the second molar-wisdom teeth-lingua). Second, we investigated the buccal area, lower and upper lip. Total/functional vessel density (TVD/FCD), focus depth (FD), small vessel mean diameters (SVMDs), and capillary tortuosity score (CTS) were compared between the areas. RESULTS Fifteen volunteers with a mean age of 29 ± 6 years were enrolled. No statistical difference was found between the sublingual fields in terms of TVD (p = 0.30), FCD (p = 0.38), and FD (p = 0.09). SVMD was similar in Field-a, Field-b, and Field-c (p = 0.20-0.30), and larger in Field-d (p < 0.01, p = 0.015). The CTS of the buccal area was higher than in the lips. CONCLUSION The sublingual area has a homogenous distribution in TVD, FCD, FD, and SVMD. This study can be a description of the normal microvascular anatomy for future researches regarding microcirculatory assessment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin avulsion injuries caused by high-energy traffic and machinery accidents are important topics in the field of repair and reconstruction. The injury generates a skin flap with uncertain vascular basis resulting in ischemic necrosis of the distal portion of the flap. Yet there is lack of reliable way for estimating the extent of blood supply in damaged tissue, which has limited the possibility of prompt surgical intervention. Recent studies have confirmed that photoacoustic microscopy imaging has a wide range of applications in the biomedical field owing to its good performance in angiography. METHODS In our study, we successfully surgically induced skin avulsion injury on mice hindlimbs. Then, we used this novel approach to image skin microcirculation and predict skin necrosis with impaired blood supply after injury in live mice. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION All skin tissues in the avulsed hindlimb flap group show different levels of necrosis at the end of the observation period. The "dark zone" with impaired microcirculation in PAM images, which continuously extends over time, was seen as a prediction of necrosis of skin tissue and at 60 min after surgery was similar to the area of clinical necrosis on postoperative day 7. All these indicate that photoacoustic microscopy imaging is a feasible, precise, high-resolution, non-invasive technique for early prediction of necrosis in skin avulsion injury, providing a promising tool for surgeons to manage the injury.

Abstract
Fluid selection and administration during shock is typically guided by consideration of macrovascular abnormalities and resuscitative targets (perfusion parameters, heart rate, blood pressure, cardiac output). However, the microcirculatory unit (comprised of arterioles, true capillaries, and venules) is vital for the effective delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells and removal of waste products from the tissue beds. Given that the microcirculation is subject to both systemic and local control, there is potential for functional changes and impacts on tissue perfusion that are not reflected by macrocirculatory parameters. This chapter will present an overview of the structure, function and regulation of the microcirculation and endothelial surface layer in health and shock states such as trauma, hemorrhage and sepsis. This will set the stage for consideration of how these microcirculatory characteristics, and the potential disconnect between micro- and macrovascular perfusion, may affect decisions related to acute fluid therapy (fluid type, amount, and rate) and monitoring of resuscitative efforts. Available evidence for the impact of various fluids and resuscitative strategies on the microcirculation will also be reviewed.

Abstract
The past few decades have seen an explosion in the development and use of methods for imaging the human microcirculation during health and disease. The confluence of innovative imaging technologies, affordable computing power, and economies of scale have ushered in a new era of "translational" imaging that permit us to peer into blood vessels of various organs in the human body. These imaging techniques include near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), positron emission tomography (PET), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that are sensitive to microvascular-derived signals, as well as computed tomography (CT), optical imaging, and ultrasound (US) imaging that are capable of directly acquiring images at, or close to microvascular spatial resolution. Collectively, these imaging modalities enable us to characterize the morphological and functional changes in a tissue's microcirculation that are known to accompany the initiation and progression of numerous pathologies. Although there have been significant advances for imaging the microcirculation in preclinical models, this review focuses on developments in the assessment of the microcirculation in patients with optical imaging, NIRS, PET, US, MRI, and CT, to name a few. The goal of this review is to serve as a springboard for exploring the burgeoning role of translational imaging technologies for interrogating the structural and functional status of the microcirculation in humans, and highlight the breadth of current clinical applications. Making the human microcirculation "visible" in vivo to clinicians and researchers alike will facilitate bench-to-bedside discoveries and enhance the diagnosis and management of disease.

Abstract
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a novel hybrid imaging technique that combines the advantages of optical and ultrasound imaging to produce hyperspectral images of the tissue. The feasibility of measuring oxygen saturation (sO2) with PAI has been demonstrated pre-clinically, but has limited use in humans under conditions of ischemia and reperfusion. As an important step towards making PAI clinically available, we present a study in which PAI was used to estimate the spatial distribution of sO2 in vivo during and after occlusion of the finger of eight healthy volunteers. The results were compared with a commercial oxygen saturation monitor based on diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. We here describe the capability of PAI to provide spatially resolved picture of the evolution of sO2 during ischemia following vascular occlusion of a finger, demonstrating the clinical viability of PAI as a non-invasive diagnostic tool for diseases indicated by impaired microvascularization.

Abstract
Vascular complications following solid organ transplantation may lead to graft ischemia, dysfunction or loss. Imaging approaches can provide intermittent assessments of graft perfusion, but require highly skilled practitioners and do not directly assess graft oxygenation. Existing systems for monitoring tissue oxygenation are limited by the need for wired connections, the inability to provide real-time data or operation restricted to surface tissues. Here, we present a minimally invasive system to monitor deep-tissue O2 that reports continuous real-time data from centimeter-scale depths in sheep and up to a 10-cm depth in ex vivo porcine tissue. The system is composed of a millimeter-sized, wireless, ultrasound-powered implantable luminescence O2 sensor and an external transceiver for bidirectional data transfer, enabling deep-tissue oxygenation monitoring for surgical or critical care indications.

Microvascular Reactivity Measured by Dynamic Near-infrared Spectroscopy Following Induction of General Anesthesia in Healthy Patients: Observation of Age-related Change. Int J Med Sci 2021; 18:1096-1103. [PMID: 33526968 PMCID: PMC7847632 DOI: 10.7150/ijms.52433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of general anesthesia on microvascular reactivity and tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy in conjunction with vascular occlusion tests (VOT). Age-related changes of microvascular reactivity, that is, the capacity of capillary recruitment, were examined. Methods: This prospective observational study was performed on 60 patients without comorbidities who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia. Baseline StO2 on thenar eminence, hemodynamics, and laboratory profile were monitored before (T0) and 30 min after general anesthesia (T1). During VOT, occlusion slope representing oxygen consumption of muscle and recovery slope representing microvascular reactivity were also collected at T0 and T1. Results: Baseline StO2 and minimum / maximum StO2 during VOT increased under general anesthesia. Occlusion slope decreased while the recovery slope increased under general anesthesia. To observe aging effect, Receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed and age less than 65 years old showed a fair performance in predicting the increase of microvascular reactivity after the induction of anesthesia (AUC 0.733, 95% CI 0.594-0.845, P= 0.003). For age-related analyses, 27 patients of younger group (< 65 years) and 26 patients of older group (≥ 65 years) were divided. Recovery slope significantly increased under general anesthesia in younger group (2.44 [1.91-2.81] % ∙ sec-1 at T0 and 3.59 [2.58-3.51] % ∙ sec-1 at T1, P <0.001), but not in older group (2.61 [2.21-3.20] % ∙ sec-1 at T0, 2.63 [1.90-3.60] % ∙ sec-1 at T1, P = 0.949). Conclusions: General anesthesia could improve StO2 through increase of microvascular reactivity and decrease of tissue metabolism. However, microvascular reactivity to capillary recruitment under general anesthesia significantly improves in younger patients, not in older patients.

Abstract
Anaemia and coagulopathy are common in critically ill patients and are associated with poor outcomes, including increased risk of mortality, myocardial infarction, failure to be liberated from mechanical ventilation and poor physical recovery. Transfusion of blood and blood products remains the corner stone of anaemia and coagulopathy treatment in critical care. However, determining when the benefits of transfusion outweigh the risks of anaemia may be challenging in some critically ill patients. Therefore, the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine prioritised the development of a clinical practice guideline to address anaemia and coagulopathy in non-bleeding critically ill patients. The aims of this article are to: (1) review the evolution of transfusion practice in critical care and the direction for future developments in this important area of transfusion medicine and (2) to provide a brief synopsis of the guideline development process and recommendations in a format designed for busy clinicians and blood bank staff. These clinical practice guidelines provide recommendations to clinicians on how best to manage non-bleeding critically ill patients at the bedside. More research is needed on alternative transfusion targets, use of transfusions in special populations (e.g., acute neurological injury, acute coronary syndromes), use of anaemia prevention strategies and point-of-care interventions to guide transfusion strategies.

Abstract
Microcirculatory dysfunction is associated with organ failure, poor response to vasoactive drugs and increased mortality in cirrhosis, but monitoring techniques are not established. We hypothesized that the chorioretinal structures of the eye could be visualized as a non-invasive proxy of the systemic microvasculature in cirrhosis and would correlate with renal dysfunction. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) was performed to image the retina in n = 55 cirrhosis patients being assessed for liver transplantation. OCT parameters were compared with established cohorts of age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (HV) and patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Retinal thickness, macular volume and choroidal thickness were significantly reduced relative to HV and comparable to CKD patients (macular volume: HV vs. cirrhosis mean difference 0.44 mm3 (95% CI 0.26–0.61), p ≤ 0.0001). Reduced retinal thickness and macular volume correlated with renal dysfunction in cirrhosis (macular volume vs. MDRD-6 eGFR r = 0.40, p = 0.006). Retinal changes had resolved substantially 6 weeks following transplantation. There was an inverse association between choroidal thickness and circulating markers of endothelial dysfunction (endothelin-1 r = −0.49, p ≤ 0.001; von Willebrand factor r = −0.32, p ≤ 0.05). Retinal OCT may represent a non-invasive window to the microcirculation in cirrhosis and a dynamic measure of renal and endothelial dysfunction. Validation in different cirrhosis populations is now required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Dehydration occurs frequently in older patients and constitutes a significant clinical problem. OBJECTIVE: This proof-of-concept study examines whether 1) sublingual measurement in dehydrated old patients is feasible, 2) frailty and incompliance in old, awake patients affects video-quality, 3) dehydration impacts microcirculation METHODS: This prospective observational study included clinically dehydrated patients aged ≥65 years immediately after admission. Dehydration was assessed clinically. A sidestream dark field camera (SDF) was used for measurement. Video-quality was evaluated with MIQS (microcirculation image quality score). Both AVA 4.3C- and AVA POEM-software analyzed the videos. Seventeen patients ≥65 years not showing dehydration served as control. RESULTS: Thirteen patients (8 female) were included. The average age was 83±8 years. The mini-mental test was 17±15 points, the Clinical Frailty Scale 4±3, the Barthel-Index 59±39. None of these parameters correlated with MIQS (3.4±4.2 SD (“acceptable”)). Dehydrated patients had a slightly impaired microcirculation, with a significantly lower percentage of perfused small vessels compared to control (83.1±7.7% versus 88.0±6.0%, P < 0.05). After rehydration, there was acute improvement in the microcirculation. CONCLUSIONS: Sublingual microcirculatory SDF-measurement is both, safe and valid for dehydrated old patients - regardless of frailty, age or cognitive performance. Dehydration leads to an impaired microcirculation.

Abstract
Background Profound knowledge about cardiovascular physiology in the setting of microgravity can help in the course of preparations for human space missions. So far, influences of microgravity on the cardiovascular system have been demonstrated, particularly pertaining to venous fluid shifts. Yet, little is known about the mechanisms of these adaptations on continuous macrocirculatory level and regarding the microcirculation. Methods Twelve healthy volunteers were subjected to alternating microgravity and hypergravity in the course of parabolic flight maneuvers. Under these conditions, as well as in normal gravity, the sublingual microcirculation was assessed by intravital sidestream dark field microscopy. Furthermore, hemodynamic parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, and cardiac output were recorded by beat-to-beat analysis. In these settings, data acquisition was performed in seated and in supine postures. Results Systolic [median 116 mmHg (102; 129) interquartile range (IQR) vs. 125 mmHg (109; 136) IQR, p = 0.01] as well as diastolic [median 72 mmHg (61; 79) IQR vs. 80 mmHg (69; 89) IQR, p = 0.003] blood pressure was reduced, and cardiac output [median 6.9 l/min (6.5; 8.8) IQR vs. 6.8 l/min (6.2; 8.5) IQR, p = 0.0002] increased in weightlessness compared to normal gravitation phases in the seated but not in the supine posture. However, microcirculation represented by perfused proportion of vessels and by total vessel density was unaffected in acute weightlessness. Conclusion Profound changes of the macrocirculation were found in seated postures, but not in supine postures. However, microcirculation remained stable in all postures.

Abstract
Objective Microcirculatory perfusion disturbances following hemorrhagic shock and fluid resuscitation contribute to multiple organ dysfunction and mortality. Standard fluid resuscitation is insufficient to restore microcirculatory perfusion; however, additional therapies are lacking. We conducted a systematic search to provide an overview of potential non‐fluid‐based therapeutic interventions to restore microcirculatory perfusion following hemorrhagic shock. Methods A structured search of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library was performed in March 2020. Animal studies needed to report at least one parameter of microcirculatory flow (perfusion, red blood cell velocity, functional capillary density). Results The search identified 1269 records of which 48 fulfilled all eligibility criteria. In total, 62 drugs were tested of which 29 were able to restore microcirculatory perfusion. Particularly, complement inhibitors (75% of drugs tested successfully restored blood flow), endothelial barrier modulators (100% successful), antioxidants (66% successful), drugs targeting cell metabolism (83% successful), and sex hormones (75% successful) restored microcirculatory perfusion. Other drugs consisted of attenuation of inflammation (100% not successful), vasoactive agents (68% not successful), and steroid hormones (75% not successful). Conclusion Improving mitochondrial function, inhibition of complement inhibition, and reducing microvascular leakage via restoration of endothelial barrier function seem beneficial to restore microcirculatory perfusion following hemorrhagic shock and fluid resuscitation.

Magnin M, Foulon É, Lurier T, Allaouchiche B, Bonnet-Garin JM, Junot S. Evaluation of microcirculation by Sidestream Dark Field imaging: Impact of hemodynamic status on the occurrence of pressure artifacts - A pilot study. Microvasc Res 2020; 131:104025. [PMID: 32497537 DOI: 10.1016/j.mvr.2020.104025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2020] [Revised: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 05/28/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims of the study were to evaluate the influence of hemodynamic status on pressure artifacts and the impact of pressure artifacts on microcirculatory flow. METHODS Sublingual microcirculation was assessed using a Sidestream Dark Field handheld imaging device in 7 anesthetized piglets, submitted to pharmacologically-induced blood pressure variations. For each video, a pressure score of 0, 1, or 10 was assigned for the category "pressure artifacts" of the "microcirculation image quality score". Videos with a pressure score of 0 and 1 were considered as "passing videos". The videos with a score of 10 were considered as "failing videos". Multivariate logistic regression models and multivariate linear mixed models with individual random effects were used. RESULTS As blood pressure decreased, the probability of obtaining a "failing video" increased (P = 0.0008). Pressure scores of 10 influenced significantly the perfused De Backer score (small and all vessels), the proportion of perfused vessels (small and all vessels), the microvascular flow index and the heterogeneity index. Pressure scores of 1 influenced significantly the parameters above-mentioned, except the perfused De Backer score for all vessels. CONCLUSION The probability of obtaining pressure artifacts during recording of microcirculation videos was higher when the arterial pressure was low. The presence of acceptable pressure artifacts also influenced microcirculation analysis.

Abstract
Blood carries oxygen and nutrients to the trillions of cells in our body to sustain vital life processes. Lack of blood perfusion can cause irreversible cell damage. Therefore, blood perfusion measurement has widespread clinical applications. In this paper, we develop PulseCam - a new camera-based, motion-robust, and highly sensitive blood perfusion imaging modality with 1 mm spatial resolution and 1 frame-per-second temporal resolution. Existing camera-only blood perfusion imaging modality suffers from two core challenges: (i) motion artifact, and (ii) small signal recovery in the presence of large surface reflection and measurement noise. PulseCam addresses these challenges by robustly combining the video recording from the camera with a pulse waveform measured using a conventional pulse oximeter to obtain reliable blood perfusion maps in the presence of motion artifacts and outliers in the video recordings. For video stabilization, we adopt a novel brightness-invariant optical flow algorithm that helps us reduce error in blood perfusion estimate below 10% in different motion scenarios compared to 20-30% error when using current approaches. PulseCam can detect subtle changes in blood perfusion below the skin with at least two times better sensitivity, three times better response time, and is significantly cheaper compared to infrared thermography. PulseCam can also detect venous or partial blood flow occlusion that is difficult to identify using existing modalities such as the perfusion index measured using a pulse oximeter. With the help of a pilot clinical study, we also demonstrate that PulseCam is robust and reliable in an operationally challenging surgery room setting. We anticipate that PulseCam will be used both at the bedside as well as a point-of-care blood perfusion imaging device to visualize and analyze blood perfusion in an easy-to-use and cost-effective manner.

Abstract
PURPOSE To support a paradigm shift in the management of septic shock from pressure-guided to perfusion-centered, expected to improve outcome while reducing adverse effects from vasopressor therapy and aggressive fluid resuscitation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Critical review of the literature cited in support of vasopressor use to achieve a predefined mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 65 mmHg and review of pertinent clinical trials and studies enabling deeper understanding of the hemodynamic pathophysiology supportive of a perfusion-centered approach, accompanied by an illustrative case. RESULTS Review of the literature cited by the Surviving Sepsis Campaign revealed lack of controlled clinical trials supporting outcome benefits from vasopressors. Additional literature review revealed adverse effects associated with vasopressors and worsened outcome in some studies. Vasopressors increase MAP primarily by peripheral vasoconstriction and in occasions by a modest increase in cardiac output when using norepinephrine. Thus, achieving the recommended MAP of 65 mmHg using vasopressors should not be presumed indicative that organ perfusion has been restored. It may instead create a false sense of hemodynamic stability hampering shock resolution. CONCLUSIONS We propose focusing the hemodynamic management of septic shock on reversing organ hypoperfusion instead of attaining a predefined MAP target as the key strategy for improving outcome.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Haemofiltration paradigms used to manage critically ill patients with a dysregulated inflammatory response (DIR) assess kidney function to monitor its onset, adaptation, and completion. A Continuous Venous Hyperfiltration (CONVEHY) protocol is presented, in which a non-specific adsorption membrane (AN69-ST-Heparin Grafted) is used with citrate as an anticoagulant and substitution fluid. CONVEHY uses tools readily available to achieve kidney related and non-related objectives, and it is guided by the monitoring of pathophysiological responses. OBJECTIVES To compare the response to an AN69-ST-HG membrane when heparin (He, n=5: Standard protocol) or citrate (Ci, n=6: CONVEHY protocol) was used to evaluate whether a larger study into the benefits of this protocol would be feasible. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a retrospective pilot study, the benefits of the CONVEHY protocol to manage patients with a DIR in a surgical critical care unit (CCUs) were assessed by evaluating the SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) (He 11 ± 2.35; Ci 11 ± 3.63: p=0.54) and APACHE II (He 28.60 ± 9.40; Ci 24 ± 8.46: p=0.93) scores. RESULTS Nights in hospital (He 35.2 ± 16.3 nights; Ci 9 ± 2.53: p=0.004), hospital admission after discharge from the CCUs (He 40.25 ± 21.82; Ci 13.2 ± 4.09: p=0.063), patients hospitalised >20 days (He 80%; Ci 0%: p=0.048), days requiring mechanical ventilation (He 16 ± 5.66; Ci 4 ± 1.72: p=0.004), and the predicted (55.39 ± 26.13%) versus real mortality in both groups (9.1%: p=0.004). CONCLUSIONS The CONVEHY protocol improves the clinical responses of patients with DIR, highlighting the potential value of performing larger and confirmatory studies.

Abstract
Background In patients with sepsis, an inflammatory response can lead to destruction of the glycocalyx. These alterations cause the progression of organ dysfunction. Destruction of the glycocalyx can also occur in chronic hyperglycemia. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a reliable marker of premorbid hyperglycemia. We investigated the association between HbA1c level at admission and the degree of organ dysfunction progression 72 hours after admission and ICU mortality. Methods and findings This study was a retrospective observational study. Logistic regression and correlation analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the HbA1c level and the degree of organ dysfunction progression 72 hours after ICU admission. We applied survival analysis to examine the association between HbA1c level and ICU mortality. A total of 90 patients were included in this study. The association between HbA1c level and degree of organ dysfunction progression was significant (r = 0.320; P = 0.002). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that high HbA1c level (≥6.5%) (OR, 2.98; 95% CI, 1.033–8.567; P = 0.043) were significant, independent predictors of severe organ dysfunction progression. Patients with an HbA1c level ≥6.5% exhibited significantly greater liver and kidney dysfunction progression 72 hours after ICU admission compared with those with an HbA1c level <6.5%. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the survival period was significantly shorter in patients with an HbA1c level ≥6.5% than in those with an HbA1c level <6.5% (P < 0.001). Multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis showed that HbA1c level ≥6.5% (HR, 3.49; 95% CI, 1.802–6.760; P <0.001) were significant, independent predictors of ICU mortality. Conclusions In patients with sepsis, the HbA1c level at ICU admission is associated with progression of organ dysfunction 72 hours later and with ICU mortality. It may be important to assess HbA1c level at ICU admission because it may be a predictor of ICU outcome. For patients with a high HbA1c level (≥6.5%), greater attention should be paid to the possibility of organ dysfunction progression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To measure tissue oxygen saturation (StO2 ) in a population of dogs with naturally occurring shock and to evaluate the relationship of StO2 with an established veterinary severity scoring system (Acute Patient Physiologic and Laboratory Evaluation) and patient survival. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING University teaching hospital. ANIMALS Twenty-five adult dogs presenting in shock, as determined by the presence of hypotension, the calculated shock index, and hyperlactatemia. INTERVENTIONS StO2 was measured prior to any therapeutic interventions. Blood samples were also collected for measurement of plasma lactate, complete blood count, and a serum biochemical profile. Abdominal and thoracic focused assessment with sonography was also performed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Dogs enrolled in this study had lower mean (±SD) StO2 values (65.12 ± 17.7%) than previously reported in experimental models of canine hemorrhagic shock. There was a moderate correlation between lower StO2 and increasing Acute Patient Physiologic and Laboratory Evaluation scores. A single StO2 value, assessed prior to therapeutic intervention, was not a sensitive predictor of mortality in this population. CONCLUSIONS Dogs with naturally occurring shock have lower mean StO2 values than those previously reported in dogs with experimentally induced shock. A lower initial StO2 was associated with worse disease severity but was not a significant predictor of survival in this population.

Abstract
Background: Measurement of general microcirculation remains difficult in septic shock patients. The peripheral perfusion index (PI) and sublingual microcirculation monitoring are thought to be possible methods. This study was performed to determine whether assessing microcirculation by PI and a new parameter, proportion of perfusion vessel change rate (ΔPPV) from sublingual microcirculation monitoring, can be associated with patients' outcome. Methods: A prospective observational study was carried out, including 74 patients with septic shock in a mixed intensive care unit. Systemic hemodynamic variables were obtained at T0 and 6 h after (T6). PI and sublingual microcirculation indicators were obtained using a bedside monitor and a sidestream dark-field device, respectively. The t-test, analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney U-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis with the Hanley-McNeil test, survival curves using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test were used to statistical analysis. Results: Systemic hemodynamics and microcirculation data were obtained and analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether the first 6 h lactate clearance (LC) was ≥20%; PI and ΔPPV were lower at T6 in the LC <20% group compared with LC ≥20% (PI: 1.52 [0.89, 1.98] vs. 0.79 [0.44, 1,81], Z = −2.514, P = 0.012; ΔPPV: 5.9 ± 15.2 vs. 17.9 ± 20.0, t = −2.914, P = 0.005). The cutoff values of PI and ΔPPV were 1.41% and 12.1%, respectively. The cutoff value of the combined indicators was 1.379 according to logistic regression. Area under the curve demonstrated 0.709 (P < 0.05), and the sensitivity and specificity of using combined indicators were 0.622 and 0.757, respectively. Based on the PI and ΔPPV cutoff, all the participants were divided into the following groups: (1) high PI and high ΔPPV group, (2) high PI and low ΔPPV group, (3) low PI and high ΔPPV group, and (4) low PI and low ΔPPV group. The highest Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (14.5 ± 2.9) was in the low PI and low ΔPPV group (F = 13.7, P < 0.001). Post hoc tests showed significant differences in 28-day survival rates among these four groups (log rank [Mantel-Cox], 20.931; P < 0.05). Conclusion: PI and ΔPPV in septic shock patients are related to 6 h LC, and combining these two parameters to assess microcirculation can predict organ dysfunction and 28-day mortality in patients with septic shock.

Abstract
Background Microcirculatory dysfunction develops in both septic and cardiogenic shock patients, and it is associated with poor prognosis in patients with septic shock. Information on the association between microcirculatory dysfunction and prognosis in cardiogenic shock patients with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support is limited. Methods Sublingual microcirculation images were recorded using an incident dark-field video microscope at the following time points: within 12 h (T1), 24 h (T2), 48 h (T3), 72 h (T4), and 96 h (T5) after VA-ECMO placement. If a patient could be weaned off VA-ECMO, sublingual microcirculation images were recorded before and after VA-ECMO removal. Microcirculatory parameters were compared between 28-day nonsurvivors and survivors with VA-ECMO support. In addition, the microcirculation and clinical parameters were assessed as prognostic tests of 28-day mortality, and patients were divided into three subgroups according to microcirculation parameters for survival analysis. Results Forty-eight patients were enrolled in this study. At T1, the observed heart rate, mean arterial pressure, inotropic score and lactate level of 28-day nonsurvivors and survivors did not differ significantly, but the perfused small vessel density (PSVD) and proportion of perfused vessels (PPV) were lower in the 28-day nonsurvivors than in the survivors. The PSVD and PPV were slightly superior to lactate levels in predicting 28-day mortality (area under curve of 0.68, 0.70, and 0.62, respectively). The subgroup with the lowest PSVD (< 15 mm/mm2) and PPV (< 64%) values exhibited less favorable survival compared with the other two subgroups. Conclusions Early microcirculatory parameters could be used to predict the survival of cardiogenic shock patients with VA-ECMO support. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02393274.

Abstract
The microvasculature plays a central role in the pathophysiology of hemorrhagic shock and is also involved in arguably all therapeutic attempts to reverse or minimize the adverse consequences of shock. Microvascular studies specific to hemorrhagic shock were reviewed and broadly grouped depending on whether data were obtained on animal or human subjects. Dedicated sections were assigned to microcirculatory changes in specific organs, and major categories of pathophysiological alterations and mechanisms such as oxygen distribution, ischemia, inflammation, glycocalyx changes, vasomotion, endothelial dysfunction, and coagulopathy as well as biomarkers and some therapeutic strategies. Innovative experimental methods were also reviewed for quantitative microcirculatory assessment as it pertains to changes during hemorrhagic shock. The text and figures include representative quantitative microvascular data obtained in various organs and tissues such as skin, muscle, lung, liver, brain, heart, kidney, pancreas, intestines, and mesentery from various species including mice, rats, hamsters, sheep, swine, bats, and humans. Based on reviewed findings, a new integrative conceptual model is presented that includes about 100 systemic and local factors linked to microvessels in hemorrhagic shock. The combination of systemic measures with the understanding of these processes at the microvascular level is fundamental to further develop targeted and personalized interventions that will reduce tissue injury, organ dysfunction, and ultimately mortality due to hemorrhagic shock.

Functional evaluation of sublingual microcirculation indicates successful weaning from VA-ECMO in cardiogenic shock. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2017; 21:265. [PMID: 29073930 PMCID: PMC5658964 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-017-1855-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2017] [Accepted: 10/05/2017] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Background Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is increasingly adopted for the treatment of cardiogenic shock (CS). However, a marker of successful weaning remains largely unknown. Our hypothesis was that successful weaning is associated with sustained microcirculatory function during ECMO flow reduction. Therefore, we sought to test the usefulness of microcirculatory imaging in the same sublingual spot, using incident dark field (IDF) imaging in assessing successful weaning from VA-ECMO and compare IDF imaging with echocardiographic parameters. Methods Weaning was performed by decreasing the VA-ECMO flow to 50% (F50) from the baseline. The endpoint of the study was successful VA-ECMO explantation within 48 hours after weaning. The response of sublingual microcirculation to a weaning attempt (WA) was evaluated. Microcirculation was measured in one sublingual area (single spot (ss)) using CytoCam IDF imaging during WA. Total vessel density (TVDss) and perfused vessel density (PVDss) of the sublingual area were evaluated before and during 50% flow reduction (TVDssF50, PVDssF50) after a WA and compared to conventional echocardiographic parameters as indicators of the success or failure of the WA. Results Patients (n = 13) aged 49 ± 18 years, who received VA-ECMO for the treatment of refractory CS due to pulmonary embolism (n = 5), post cardiotomy (n = 3), acute coronary syndrome (n = 2), myocarditis (n = 2) and drug intoxication (n = 1), were included. TVDssF50 (21.9 vs 12.9 mm/mm2, p = 0.001), PVDssF50 (19.7 vs 12.4 mm/mm2, p = 0.01) and aortic velocity–time integral (VTI) at 50% flow reduction (VTIF50) were higher in patients successfully weaned vs not successfully weaned. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.99 vs 0.93 vs 0.85 for TVDssF50 (small vessels) >12.2 mm/mm2, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >15% and aortic VTI >11 cm. Likewise, the AUC was 0.91 vs 0.93 vs 0.85 for the PVDssF50 (all vessels) >14.8 mm/mm2, LVEF >15% and aortic VTI >11 cm. Conclusion This study identified sublingual microcirculation as a novel potential marker for identifying successful weaning from VA-ECMO. Sustained values of TVDssF50 and PVDssF50 were found to be specific and sensitive indicators of successful weaning from VA-ECMO as compared to echocardiographic parameters.

Abstract
The emergency department (ED) is frequently the doorway to the intensive care unit (ICU) for a significant number of critically ill patients presenting to the hospital. Hemodynamic monitoring (HDM) which is a key component in the effective management of the critically ill patient presenting to the ED, is primarily concerned with assessing the performance of the cardiovascular system and determining the correct therapeutic intervention to optimise end-organ oxygen delivery. The spectrum of hemodynamic monitoring ranges from simple clinical assessment and routine bedside monitoring to point of care ultrasonography and various invasive monitoring devices. The clinician must be aware of the range of available techniques, methods, interventions and technological advances as well as possess a sound approach to basic hemodynamic monitoring prior to selecting the optimal modality. This article comprises an in depth discussion of an approach to hemodynamic monitoring techniques and principles as well as methods of predicting fluid responsiveness as it applies to the ED clinician. We review the role, applicability and validity of various methods and techniques that include; clinical assessment, passive leg raising, blood pressure, finger based monitoring devices, the mini-fluid challenge, the end-expiratory occlusion test, central venous pressure monitoring, the pulmonary artery catheter, ultrasonography, bioreactance and other modern invasive hemodynamic monitoring devices.

Abstract
Chronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) results from insufficient oxygen delivery or utilization to meet metabolic demand. Two main mechanisms may lead to mesenteric ischemia: occlusion in the arteries or veins of the gastrointestinal tract, or reduced blood flow from shock states or increased intra-abdominal pressure, so-called non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia. Severe stenoses in the three main mesenteric vessels as demonstrated with CT-angiography or MR-angiography are sufficient to proof mesenteric ischemia, for example in patients who present with weight loss, postprandial pain and diarrhea. Still in many clinical situations mesenteric ischemia is only one of many possible explanations. Especially in patients with a single vessel stenosis in the celiac artery or superior mesenteric artery with postprandial pain, mesenteric ischemia remains a diagnosis of probability or assumption without functional proof of actual ischemia. This review is aimed to provide an overview of all past, present and future ways to functionally proof CMI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) continues to gain an increased interest in clinical and research studies to monitor microvascular perfusion. Due to its high spatial and temporal resolutions, LSCI may lead to a large amount of data. The analysis of such data, as well as the determination of the regions where the perfusion varies, can become a lengthy and tedious task. We propose here to analyze if a view-based temporal template method, the motion history image (MHI) algorithm, may be of use in detecting the perfusion variations locations. METHODS LSCI data recorded during three different kinds of perfusion variations are considered: (i) cerebral blood flow during spreading depolarization (SD) in a mouse; (ii) cerebral blood flow during SD in a rat; (iii) cerebral blood flow during cardiac arrest in a rat. Each of these recordings was processed with MHI. RESULTS We show that, for the three pathophysiological situations, MHI identifies the area in which perfusion evolves with time. The results are more easily obtained compared with a visual inspection of all of the frames constituting the recordings. MHI also has the advantage of relying on a rather simple algorithm. CONCLUSIONS MHI can be tested in clinical and research studies to aid the user in perfusion analyses.

Abstract
We describe a simple method of tracking oxygen in real-time with injectable, tissue-integrating microsensors. The sensors are small (500 μm × 500 μm × 5 mm), soft, flexible, tissue-like, biocompatible hydrogel s that have been shown to overcome the foreign body response for long-term sensing. The sensors are engineered to change luminescence in the presence of oxygen or other analytes and function for months to years in the body. A single injection followed by non-invasive monitoring with a hand-held or wearable Bluetooth optical reader enables intermittent or continuous measurements. Proof of concept for applications in high altitude, exercise physiology, vascular disease, stroke, tumors, and other disease states have been shown in mouse, rat and porcine models. Over 90 sensors have been studied to date in humans. These novel tissue-integrating sensors yield real-time insights in tissue oxygen fluctuations for research and clinical applications.

Abstract
Critical illness associated with cardiac pump failure results in reduced tissue perfusion in all organs and occurs in various conditions such as sepsis, cardiogenic shock, and heart failure. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices can be used to maintain organ perfusion in patients with cardiogenic shock and decompensated chronic heart failure. However, correction of global hemodynamic parameters by MCS does not always cause a parallel improvement in microcirculatory perfusion and oxygenation of the organ systems, a condition referred to as a loss of hemodynamic coherence between macro- and microcirculation (MC). In this paper, we review the literature describing hemodynamic coherence or loss occurring during MCS of the heart. By using Embase, Medline Cochrane, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, we analyzed the literature on the response of MC and macrocirculation to MCS of the heart in critical illness. The characteristics of patients, MCS devices, and micro- and macrocirculatory parameters were very heterogenic. Short-term MCS studies (78%) described the effects of intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABPs) on the MC and macrocirculation. Improvement in MC, observed by handheld microscopy (orthogonal polarization spectral (OPS), sidestream dark-field (SDF), and Cytocam IDF imaging) in line with restored macrocirculation was found in 44% and 40% of the studies of short- and long-term MCS, respectively. In only 6 of 14 studies, hemodynamic coherence was described. It is concluded that more studies using direct visualization of the MC in short- and long-term MCS by handheld microscopy are needed, preferably randomized controlled studies, to identify the presence and clinical significance of hemodynamic coherence. It is anticipated that these further studies can enable to better identify patients who will benefit from treatment by mechanical heart support to ensure adequate organ perfusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clinically unapparent microcirculatory impairment is common and has a negative impact on septic shock, but specific therapy is not established so far. This prospective observational study aimed at identifying candidate parameters for microcirculatory-guided hemodynamic therapy. ClinicalTrials.gov : NCT01530932. MATERIALS AND METHODS Microcirculatory flow and postcapillary venous oxygen saturation were detected during vaso-occlusive testing (VOT) on days 1 (T0), 2 (T24), and 4 (T72) in 20 patients with septic shock at a surgical intensive care unit using a laser Doppler spectrophotometry system (O2C). RESULTS Reperfusional maximal venous capillary oxygen saturation (SvcO2max) showed negative correlations with Simplified Acute Physiology Score II (SAPSII)/Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, norepinephrine dosage, and lactate concentration and showed positive correlations with cardiac index (CI). At T24 and T72, SvcO2max was also inversely linked to fluid balance. With respect to any predictive value, SvcO2max and CI determined on day 1 (T0) were negatively correlated with SAPS II/SOFA on day 4 (T72). Moreover, SvcO2max measured on day 1 or day 2 was negatively correlated with cumulated fluid balance on day 4 ( r= -.472, P < .05 and r = -.829, P < .001). By contrast, CI neither on day 1 nor on day 2 was correlated with cumulated fluid balance on day 4 ( r = -.343, P = .17 and r = -.365, P = .15). CONCLUSION In patients with septic shock, microcirculatory reserve as assessed by SvcO2max following VOT was impaired and negatively correlated with severity of illness and fluid balance. In contrast to CI, SvcO2max determined on day 1 or day 2 was significantly negatively correlated with cumulative fluid balance on day 4. Therefore, early microcirculatory measurement of SvcO2max might be superior to CI in guidance of sepsis therapy to avoid fluid overload. This has to be addressed in future clinical studies.
