Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to prospectively evaluate the ability of transthoracic echocardiography to assess pulmonary artery occlusion pressure in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. DESIGN In a prospective observational study. SETTING Amiens University Hospital Medical ICU. PATIENTS Fifty-three mechanically ventilated patients in sinus rhythm admitted to our ICU. INTERVENTION Transthoracic echocardiography was performed simultaneously to pulmonary artery catheter. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Transmitral early velocity wave recorded using pulsed wave Doppler (E), late transmitral velocity wave recorded using pulsed wave Doppler (A), and deceleration time of E wave were recorded using pulsed Doppler as well as early mitral annulus velocity wave recorded using tissue Doppler imaging (E'). Pulmonary artery occlusion pressure was measured simultaneously using pulmonary artery catheter. There was a significant correlation between pulmonary artery occlusion pressure and lateral ratio between E wave and E' (E/E' ratio) (r = 0.35; p < 0.01), ratio between E wave and A wave (E/A ratio) (r = 0.41; p < 0.002), and deceleration time of E wave (r = -0.34; p < 0.02). E/E' greater than 15 was predictive of pulmonary artery occlusion pressure greater than or equal to 18 mm Hg with a sensitivity of 25% and a specificity of 95%, whereas E/E' less than 7 was predictive of pulmonary artery occlusion pressure less than 18 mm Hg with a sensitivity of 32% and a specificity of 81%. E/A greater than 1.8 yielded a sensitivity of 44% and a specificity of 95% to predict pulmonary artery occlusion pressure greater than or equal to 18 mm Hg, whereas E/A less than 0.7 was predictive of pulmonary artery occlusion pressure less than 18 mm Hg with a sensitivity of 19% and a specificity of 94%. A similar predictive capacity was observed when the analysis was confined to patients with EF less than 50%. A large proportion of E/E' measurements 32 (60%) were situated between the two cut-off values obtained by the receiver operating characteristic curves: E/E' greater than 15 and E/E' less than 7. CONCLUSIONS In mechanically ventilated critically ill patients, Doppler transthoracic echocardiography indices are highly specific but not sensitive to estimate pulmonary artery occlusion pressure.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is an essential part of modern intensive care medicine. MV is performed in patients with severe respiratory failure caused by respiratory muscle insufficiency and/or lung parenchymal disease; that is, when other treatments such as medication, oxygen administration, secretion management, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), or nasal high-flow therapy have failed. MV is required for maintaining gas exchange and allows more time to curatively treat the underlying cause of respiratory failure. In the majority of ventilated patients, liberation or "weaning" from MV is routine, without the occurrence of any major problems. However, approximately 20% of patients require ongoing MV, despite amelioration of the conditions that precipitated the need for it in the first place. Approximately 40-50% of the time spent on MV is required to liberate the patient from the ventilator, a process called "weaning". In addition to acute respiratory failure, numerous factors can influence the duration and success rate of the weaning process; these include age, comorbidities, and conditions and complications acquired during the ICU stay. According to international consensus, "prolonged weaning" is defined as the weaning process in patients who have failed at least 3 weaning attempts, or require more than 7 days of weaning after the first spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). Given that prolonged weaning is a complex process, an interdisciplinary approach is essential for it to be successful. In specialised weaning centres, approximately 50% of patients with initial weaning failure can be liberated from MV after prolonged weaning. However, the heterogeneity of patients undergoing prolonged weaning precludes the direct comparison of individual centres. Patients with persistent weaning failure either die during the weaning process, or are discharged back to their home or to a long-term care facility with ongoing MV. Urged by the growing importance of prolonged weaning, this Sk2 Guideline was first published in 2014 as an initiative of the German Respiratory Society (DGP), in conjunction with other scientific societies involved in prolonged weaning. The emergence of new research, clinical study findings and registry data, as well as the accumulation of experience in daily practice, have made the revision of this guideline necessary. The following topics are dealt with in the present guideline: Definitions, epidemiology, weaning categories, underlying pathophysiology, prevention of prolonged weaning, treatment strategies in prolonged weaning, the weaning unit, discharge from hospital on MV, and recommendations for end-of-life decisions. Special emphasis was placed on the following themes: (1) A new classification of patient sub-groups in prolonged weaning. (2) Important aspects of pulmonary rehabilitation and neurorehabilitation in prolonged weaning. (3) Infrastructure and process organisation in the care of patients in prolonged weaning based on a continuous treatment concept. (4) Changes in therapeutic goals and communication with relatives. Aspects of paediatric weaning are addressed separately within individual chapters. The main aim of the revised guideline was to summarize both current evidence and expert-based knowledge on the topic of "prolonged weaning", and to use this information as a foundation for formulating recommendations related to "prolonged weaning", not only in acute medicine but also in the field of chronic intensive care medicine. The following professionals served as important addressees for this guideline: intensivists, pulmonary medicine specialists, anaesthesiologists, internists, cardiologists, surgeons, neurologists, paediatricians, geriatricians, palliative care clinicians, rehabilitation physicians, intensive/chronic care nurses, physiotherapists, respiratory therapists, speech therapists, medical service of health insurance, and associated ventilator manufacturers.

Abstract
Background Stroke volume measurement should provide estimates of acute treatment responses. The current pulse contour method estimates left ventricle stroke volume. Heart-lung interactions change right ventricular stroke volume acutely. We investigated the accuracy, precision, and trending abilities of four calibrated stroke volume estimates based on pulmonary artery pulse contour analysis. Results Stroke volume was measured in 9 pigs with a pulmonary artery ultrasound flow probe at 5 and 10 cmH2O of PEEP and three volume states (baseline, bleeding, and retransfusion) and compared against stroke volume estimates of four calibrated pulmonary pulse contour algorithms based on pulse pressure or pressure integration. Bland-Altman comparison with correction for multiple measurements and trend analysis were performed. Heart rate and stroke volumes were 104 ± 24 bpm and 30 ± 12 mL, respectively. The stroke volume estimates had a minimal bias: − 0.11 mL (95% CI − 0.55 to 0.33) to 0.32 mL (95% CI − 0.06 to 0.70). The limits of agreement were − 8.0 to 7.8 mL for calibrated pulse pressure to − 10.4 to 11.5 mL for time corrected pressure integration, resulting in a percentage error of 36 to 37%. The calibrated pulse pressure method performed best. Changes in stroke volume were trended very well (concordance rates 73–100%, r2 0.26 to 0.987, for pulse pressure methods and 71–100%, r2 0.236 to 0.977, for integration methods). Conclusions Pulmonary artery pulse contour methods reliably detect acute changes in stroke volume with good accuracy and moderate precision and accurately trend short-term changes in cardiac output over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rapid identification and treatment of tissue hypoxia reaching anaerobiosis (dysoxia) may reduce organ failure and the occurrence of major postoperative complications (MPC) after cardiac surgery. The predictive ability of PCO2-based dysoxia biomarkers, central venous-to-arterial PCO2 difference (ΔPCO2) and ΔPCO2 to arteriovenous oxygen content difference ratio, is poorly studied in this setting. OBJECTIVES We evaluated the ability of PCO2-based tissue dysoxia biomarkers, blood lactate concentration and central venous oxygen saturation measured 2 h after admission to the ICU as predictors of MPC. DESIGN A prospective, observational cohort study. SETTING Single-centre, academic hospital cardiovascular ICU. PATIENTS We included adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass and measured dysoxia biomarkers at ICU admission, and after 2, 6 and 24 h. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary endpoint was MPC, a composite of cardiac and noncardiac MPC evaluated in the 48 h following surgery. After univariate analysis of MPC covariates including dysoxia biomarkers measured at 2 h, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the association of these biomarkers with MPC for confounders. Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves were determined for biomarkers which remained independently associated with MPC. RESULTS MPC occurred in 56.5% of the 308 patients analysed. ΔPCO2, blood lactate concentration and central venous oxygen saturation measured at 2 h, but not ΔPCO2 to arteriovenous oxygen content difference ratio, were significantly associated with MPC. However, only ΔPCO2 was independently associated with MPC after multivariate analysis. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of ΔPCO2 measured at 2 h for MPC prediction was 0.64 (95% CI 0.57 to 0.70, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION After cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, ΔPCO2 measured 2 h after ICU admission was the only dysoxia biomarker independently associated with MPC, but with limited performance.

Reliability of three-dimensional color flow Doppler and two-dimensional pulse wave Doppler transthoracic echocardiography for estimating cardiac output after cardiac surgery. Cardiovasc Ultrasound 2019; 17:5. [PMID: 30944001 PMCID: PMC6448273 DOI: 10.1186/s12947-019-0155-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2018] [Accepted: 03/01/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional color flow Doppler (3DCF) is a new convenient technique for cardiac output (CO) measurement. However, to date, no one has evaluated the accuracy of 3DCF echocardiography for CO measurement after cardiac surgery. Therefore, this single-center, prospective study was designed to evaluate the reliability of three-dimensional color flow and two-dimensional pulse wave Doppler (2D-PWD) transthoracic echocardiography for estimating cardiac output after cardiac surgery. METHODS Post-cardiac surgical patients with a good acoustic window and a low dose or no dose of vasoactive drugs (norepinephrine < 0.05 μg/kg/min) were enrolled for CO estimation. Three different methods (third generation FloTrac/Vigileo™ [FT/V] system as the reference method, 3DCF, and 2D-PWD) were used to estimate CO before and after interventions (baseline, after volume expansion, and after a dobutamine test). RESULTS A total of 20 patients were enrolled in this study, and 59 pairs of CO measurements were collected (one pair was not included because of increasing drainage after the dobutamine test). Pearson's coefficients were 0.260 between the CO-FT/V and CO-PWD measurements and 0.729 between the CO-FT/V and CO-3DCF measurements. Bland-Altman analysis showed the bias between the absolute values of CO-FT/V and CO-PWD measurements was - 0.6 L/min with limits of agreement between - 3.3 L/min and 2.2 L/min, with a percentage error (PE) of 61.3%. The bias between CO-FT/V and CO-3DCF was - 0.14 L/min with limits of agreement between - 1.42 L /min and 1.14 L/min, with a PE of 29.9%. Four-quadrant plot analysis showed the concordance rate between ΔCO-PWD and ΔCO-3FT/V was 93.3%. CONCLUSIONS In a comparison with the FT/V system, 3DCF transthoracic echocardiography could accurately estimate CO in post-cardiac surgical patients, and the two methods could be considered interchangeable. Although 2D-PWD echocardiography was not as accurate as the 3D technique, its ability to track directional changes was reliable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive imaging method that identifies changes in air and blood volume based on thoracic impedance changes. Recently, there has been growing interest in EIT to measure stroke volume (SV). The objectives of this study are as follows: (1) to evaluate the ability of systolic impedance variations (ΔZsys) to track changes in SV in relation to a baseline condition; (2) to assess the relationship of ΔZsys and SV in experimental subjects; and (3) to identify the influence of body dimensions on the relationship between ΔZsys and SV. METHODS Twelve Agroceres pigs were instrumented with transpulmonary thermodilution catheter and EIT and were mechanically ventilated in a random order using different settings of tidal volume (VT) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP): VT 10 mL·kg and PEEP 10 cm H2O, VT 10 mL·kg and PEEP 5 cm H2O, VT 6 mL·kg and PEEP 10 cm H2O, and VT 6 mL·kg and PEEP 5 cm H2O. After baseline data collection, subjects were submitted to hemorrhagic shock and successive fluid challenges. RESULTS A total of 204 paired measurements of SV and ΔZsys were obtained. The 4-quadrant plot showed acceptable trending ability with a concordance rate of 91.2%. Changes in ΔZsys after fluid challenges presented an area under the curve of 0.83 (95% confidence interval, 0.74-0.92) to evaluate SV changes. Conversely, the linear association between ΔZsys and SV was poor, with R from linear mixed model of 0.35. Adding information on body dimensions improved the linear association between ΔZsys and SV up to R from linear mixed model of 0.85. CONCLUSIONS EIT showed good trending ability and is a promising hemodynamic monitoring tool. Measurements of absolute SV require that body dimensions be taken into account.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this trial was to determine whether Flotrac Vigileo™ (FV™) provides a reliable representation of the hemodynamic state of a cardiac surgical patient population when compared to pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) and echocardiography in the peril-operative period. Design: This was a prospective observational trial comparing perioperative hemodynamic states using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), FV™ and PAC during and post cardiothoracic surgery. Setting: Tertiary regional hospital Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Participants: 50 consecutive adult cardiothoracic patients with written consent provided. Intervention: Comparison of the perioperative hemodynamic states using echocardiography, FV™ and PAC was performed. Evaluation of the hemodynamic state (HDS) was performed using TEE, TTE, PAC and FV™ during and after cardiac surgery. Data were compared between the three hemodynamic assessment modalities. Main Outcome Measure: Predicted hemodynamic state. Results: FV™ and PAC were shown to correlate poorly with TEE/TTE assessment of the hemodynamic state. Both PAC and FV™ showed significant discordance with echocardiographic assessment of the hemodynamic state. Conclusions: In this trial, FV™ and PAC were shown to agree poorly with TTE/TEE assessment of the HDS in an adult cardiothoracic population. Agreement between the FV™ and PAC was also poor. Caution is recommended in interpreting isolated hemodynamic monitoring data. All hemodynamic monitoring devices have inherent sources of error. Caution is advised in interpreting any single device or measurement as a gold standard. We suggest that hemodynamic measuring devices such as FV™/PAC may act as triggers for a global hemodynamic assessment including consideration of TTE/TEE.

Abstract
In patients with sepsis and septic shock, the hemodynamic management in both early and later phases of these "organ dysfunction syndromes" is a key therapeutic component. It needs, however, to be differentiated between "early goal-directed therapy" (EGDT) as proposed for the first 6 hours of emergency department treatment by Rivers et al. in 2001 and "hemodynamic management" using advanced hemodynamic monitoring in the intensive care unit (ICU). Recent large trials demonstrated that nowadays protocolized EGDT does not seem to be superior to "usual care" in terms of a reduction in mortality in emergency department patients with early identified septic shock who promptly receive antibiotic therapy and fluid resuscitation. "Hemodynamic management" comprises (a) making the diagnosis of septic shock as one differential diagnosis of circulatory shock, (b) assessing the hemodynamic status including the identification of therapeutic conflicts, and (c) guiding therapeutic interventions. We propose two algorithms for hemodynamic management using transpulmonary thermodilution-derived variables aiming to optimize the cardiocirculatory and pulmonary status in adult ICU patients with septic shock. The complexity and heterogeneity of patients with septic shock implies that individualized approaches for hemodynamic management are mandatory. Defining individual hemodynamic target values for patients with septic shock in different phases of the disease must be the focus of future studies.

Abstract
Knowledge of the right atrial pressure (RAP) values is critical to ascertain the existence of a state of hemodynamic congestion, irrespective of the possible presence of signs and symptoms of clinical congestion and cardiac overload that can be lacking in some conditions of concealed or clinically misleading cardiac decompensation. In addition, a more reliable estimate of RAP would make it possible to determine more accurately also the systolic pulmonary arterial pressure with the only echocardiographic methods. The authors briefly illustrate some of the criteria that have been implemented to obtain a non-invasive RAP estimate, some of which have been approved by current guidelines and others are still awaiting official endorsement from the Scientific Societies of Cardiology. There is a representation of the sometimes opposing views of researchers who have studied the problem, and the prospects for development of new diagnostic criteria are outlined, in particular those derived from the matched use of two- and three-dimensional echocardiographic parameters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We tested whether the changes in extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight could detect weaning-induced pulmonary edema. We also studied the diagnostic value of blood volume contraction indices and B-type natriuretic peptide variations. DESIGN Prospective study. SETTING ICU PATIENTS Twenty-one patients who failed a first spontaneous breathing trial. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We performed a second 60-minute T-tube spontaneous breathing trial. Before and at the end of spontaneous breathing trial, we recorded pulmonary artery occlusion pressure, the extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight, plasma B-type natriuretic peptide level, hemoglobin, and plasma protein concentrations. Weaning-induced pulmonary edema was defined by the association of signs of clinical intolerance and a pulmonary artery occlusion pressure greater than or equal to 18 mm Hg at the end of spontaneous breathing trial. Because some patients performed several spontaneous breathing trial, a primary analysis included all spontaneous breathing trial and a secondary analysis included only the first spontaneous breathing trial of each patient. In primary analysis, 36 spontaneous breathing trials were analyzed, 21 spontaneous breathing trial with weaning-induced pulmonary edema and 15 without. During spontaneous breathing trial, extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight increased only in cases with weaning-induced pulmonary edema (25% ± 23%). Plasma protein concentration, hemoglobin concentration, and B-type natriuretic peptide also significantly increased only in cases with weaning-induced pulmonary edema (9% ± 3%, 9% ± 4%, 21% ± 23%, respectively). The areas under the receiver operating characteristics curves to detect weaning-induced pulmonary edema were 0.89 (95% CI, 0.78-0.99) for extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight, 0.97 (0.93-1.01) for spontaneous breathing trial-induced changes in plasma protein concentration, 0.96 (0.90-1.01) for changes in hemoglobin concentration, and 0.76 (0.60-0.93) for changes in B-type natriuretic peptide. An increase in extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight greater than or equal to 14% diagnosed weaning-induced pulmonary edema with a sensitivity of 67% (95% CI, 43-85%) and a specificity of 100% (95% CI, 78-100%). The secondary analysis confirmed these results. CONCLUSIONS Spontaneous breathing trial-induced increases in extravascular lung water indexed for ideal body weight, plasma protein concentrations, hemoglobin concentration, and B-type natriuretic peptide are reliable alternatives to the pulmonary artery catheter for diagnosing weaning-induced pulmonary edema.

Abstract
Hemodynamic monitoring has evolved and improved greatly during the past decades as the medical approach has shifted from a static to a functional approach. The technological advances have led to innovating calibrated or not, but minimally invasive and noninvasive devices based on arterial pressure waveform (APW) analysis. This systematic clinical review outlines the physiologic rationale behind these recent technologies. We describe the strengths and the limitations of each method in terms of accuracy and precision of measuring the flow parameters (stroke volume, cardiac output) and dynamic parameters which predict the fluid responsiveness. We also analyzed the place of the APW monitoring devices in goal-directed therapy (GDT) protocols in cardiac surgical patients. According to the data from the three GDT-randomized control trials performed in cardiac surgery (using two types of APW techniques PiCCO and FloTrac/Vigileo), these devices did not demonstrate that they played a role in decreasing mortality, but only decreasing the ventilation time and the ICU and hospital length of stay.

Abstract
The mixed venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide (CO2) tension difference [P (v-a) CO2] is the difference between carbon dioxide tension (PCO2) in mixed venous blood (sampled from a pulmonary artery catheter) and the PCO2 in arterial blood. P (v-a) CO2 depends on the cardiac output and the global CO2 production, and on the complex relationship between PCO2 and CO2 content. Experimental and clinical studies support the evidence that P (v-a) CO2 cannot serve as an indicator of tissue hypoxia, and should be regarded as an indicator of the adequacy of venous blood to wash out the total CO2 generated by the peripheral tissues. P (v-a) CO2 can be replaced by the central venous-to-arterial CO2 difference (ΔPCO2), which is calculated from simultaneous sampling of central venous blood from a central vein catheter and arterial blood and, therefore, more easy to obtain at the bedside. Determining the ΔPCO2 during the resuscitation of septic shock patients might be useful when deciding when to continue resuscitation despite a central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) > 70% associated with elevated blood lactate levels. Because high blood lactate levels is not a discriminatory factor in determining the source of that stress, an increased ΔPCO2 (> 6 mmHg) could be used to identify patients who still remain inadequately resuscitated. Monitoring the ΔPCO2 from the beginning of the reanimation of septic shock patients might be a valuable means to evaluate the adequacy of cardiac output in tissue perfusion and, thus, guiding the therapy. In this respect, it can aid to titrate inotropes to adjust oxygen delivery to CO2 production, or to choose between hemoglobin correction or fluid/inotrope infusion in patients with a too low ScvO2 related to metabolic demand. The combination of P (v-a) CO2 or ΔPCO2 with oxygen-derived parameters through the calculation of the P (v-a) CO2 or ΔPCO2/arteriovenous oxygen content difference ratio can detect the presence of global anaerobic metabolism.

Abstract
Fluid therapy is still the mainstay of acute care in patients with shock or cardiovascular compromise. However, our understanding of the critically ill pathophysiology has evolved significantly in recent years. The revelation of the glycocalyx layer and subsequent research has redefined the basics of fluids behavior in the circulation. Using less invasive hemodynamic monitoring tools enables us to assess the cardiovascular function in a dynamic perspective. This allows pinpointing even distinct changes induced by treatment, by postural changes, or by interorgan interactions in real time and enables individualized patient management. Regarding fluids as drugs of any other kind led to the need for precise indication, way of administration, and also assessment of side effects. We possess now the evidence that patient centered outcomes may be altered when incorrect time, dose, or type of fluids are administered. In this review, three major features of fluid therapy are discussed: the prediction of fluid responsiveness, potential harms induced by overzealous fluid administration, and finally the problem of protocol-led treatments and their timing.

Abstract
Although use of the classic pulmonary artery catheter has declined, several techniques have emerged to estimate cardiac output. Arterial pressure waveform analysis computes cardiac output from the arterial pressure curve. The method of estimating cardiac output for these devices depends on whether they need to be calibrated by an independent measure of cardiac output. Some newer devices have been developed to estimate cardiac output from an arterial curve obtained noninvasively with photoplethysmography, allowing a noninvasive beat-by-beat estimation of cardiac output. This article describes the different devices that perform pressure waveform analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Central venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (ΔPCO2) can be used as a marker for the efficacy of venous blood in removing the total CO2 produced by the tissues. To date, this role of ΔPCO2 has been assessed only in patients after resuscitation from septic shock with already normalised central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2 ≥70%). There are no reports on the behaviour of ΔPCO2 and its relationship to cardiac index (CI) and clinical outcome before normal ScvO2 has been achieved. OBJECTIVES To investigate the behaviour of ΔPCO2 and its relationship to CI, blood lactate concentration and 28-day mortality during resuscitation in the very early phase of septic shock. To examine whether patients who normalise both ΔPCO2 and ScvO2 during the first 6 h of resuscitation will have a greater percentage decrease in blood lactate concentration than those who only achieve normal ScvO2. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in a university hospital. PATIENTS Eighty patients with septic shock were consecutively recruited. INTERVENTIONS Patients were resuscitated in accordance with the recommendations of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Blood lactate concentrations, and haemodynamic and oxygen-derived variables were obtained at ICU admission (T0) and 6 h after admission (T6). Lactate decrease was defined as the percentage decrease in lactate concentration from T0 to T6. All cause 28-day mortality was also recorded. RESULTS Data are presented as median (interquartile range). At T0, there were significant differences (P < 0.0001) between normal (ΔPCO2 ≤0.8 kPa) and high ΔPCO2 groups for CI (3.9 [3.3 to 4.7] vs. 2.9 [2.3 to 3.1] l min m) and ScvO2 (73 [65 to 80] vs. 61 [53 to 63]%). The correlation between changes in CI and ΔPCO2 was r = -0.62, P < 0.0001. Patients who reached a normal ΔPCO2 at T6 had larger decreases in blood lactate concentration and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores on day 1. The lactate decrease was greatest in the subgroup achieving both normal ScvO2 and ΔPCO2 at T6. Lactate decrease, unlike ΔPCO2 and ScvO2, was an independent predictor of 28-day mortality. CONCLUSION Monitoring ΔPCO2 may be a useful tool to assess the adequacy of tissue perfusion during resuscitation. The normalisation of both ΔPCO2 and ScvO2 is associated with a greater decrease in blood lactate concentration than ScvO2 alone. The lactate decrease is an independent predictor of 28-day mortality. Further research is needed to confirm this hypothesis.

Abstract
Background Early goal-directed therapy refers to the use of predefined hemodynamic goals to optimize tissue oxygen delivery in critically ill patients. Its application in high-risk abdominal surgery is, however, hindered by safety concerns and practical limitations of perioperative hemodynamic monitoring. Arterial waveform analysis provides an easy, minimally invasive alternative to conventional monitoring techniques, and could be valuable in early goal-directed strategies. We therefore investigate the effects of early goal-directed therapy using arterial waveform analysis on complications, quality of life and healthcare costs after high-risk abdominal surgery. Methods/Design In this multicenter, randomized, controlled superiority trial, 542 patients scheduled for elective, high-risk abdominal surgery will be included. Patients are allocated to standard care (control group) or early goal-directed therapy (intervention group) using a randomization procedure stratified by center and type of surgery. In the control group, standard perioperative hemodynamic monitoring is applied. In the intervention group, early goal-directed therapy is added to standard care, based on continuous monitoring of cardiac output with arterial waveform analysis. A treatment algorithm is used as guidance for fluid and inotropic therapy to maintain cardiac output above a preset, age-dependent target value. The primary outcome measure is a combined endpoint of major complications in the first 30 days after the operation, including mortality. Secondary endpoints are length of stay in the hospital, length of stay in the intensive care or post-anesthesia care unit, the number of minor complications, quality of life, cost-effectiveness and one-year mortality and morbidity. Discussion Before the start of the study, hemodynamic optimization by early goal-directed therapy with arterial waveform analysis had only been investigated in small, single-center studies, including minor complications as primary endpoint. Moreover, these studies did not include quality of life, healthcare costs, and long-term outcome in their analysis. As a result, the definitive role of arterial waveform analysis in the perioperative hemodynamic assessment and care for high-risk surgical patients is unknown, which gave rise to the present trial. Patient inclusion started in May 2012 and is expected to end in 2016. Trial registration This trial was registered in the Dutch Trial Register (registration number NTR3380) on 3 April 2012. Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (doi:10.1186/1745-6215-15-360) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Semi-invasive measurement of cardiac output based on pulse contour: a review and analysis. Can J Anaesth 2014; 61:452-79.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this review was to provide a meta-analysis of all five of the most popular systems for arterial pulse contour analysis compared with pulmonary artery thermodilution, the established reference method for measuring cardiac output (CO). The five investigated systems are FloTrac/Vigileo(®), PiCCO(®), LiDCO/PulseCO(®), PRAM/MostCare(®), and Modelflow. SOURCE In a comprehensive literature search through MEDLINE(®), Web of Knowledge (v.5.11), and Google Scholar, we identified prospective studies and reviews that compared the pulse contour approach with the reference method (n = 316). Data extracted from the 93 selected studies included range and mean cardiac output, bias, percentage error, software versions, and study population. We performed a pooled weighted analysis of their precision in determining CO in various patient groups and clinical settings. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Results of the majority of studies indicate that the five investigated systems show acceptable accuracy during hemodynamically stable conditions. Forty-three studies provided adequate data for a pooled weighted analysis and resulted in a mean (SD) total pooled bias of -0.28 (1.25) L·min(-1), percentage error of 40%, and a correlation coefficient of r = 0.71. In hemodynamically unstable patients (n = 8), we found a higher percentage error (45%) and bias of -0.54 (1.64) L·min(-1). CONCLUSION During hemodynamic instability, CO measurement based on continuous arterial pulse contour analysis shows only limited agreement with intermittent bolus thermodilution. The calibrated systems seem to deliver more accurate measurements than the auto-calibrated or the non-calibrated systems. For reliable use of these semi-invasive systems, especially for critical therapeutic decisions during hemodynamic disorders, both a strategy for hemodynamic optimization and further technological improvements are necessary.

Abstract
Hemodynamic monitoring offers valuable information on cardiovascular performance in the critically ill, and has become a fundamental tool in the diagnostic approach and in the therapy guidance of those patients presenting with tissue hypoperfusion. From introduction of the pulmonary artery catheter to the latest less invasive technologies, hemodynamic monitoring has been surrounded by many questions regarding its usefulness and its ultimate impact on patient prognosis. The Cardiological Intensive Care and CPR Working Group (GTCIC-RCP) of the Spanish Society of Intensive Care and Coronary Units (SEMICYUC) has recently impulsed the development of an updating series in hemodynamic monitoring. Now, a final series of recommendations are presented in order to analyze essential issues in hemodynamics, with the purpose of becoming a useful tool for residents and critical care practitioners involved in the daily management of critically ill patients.

Abstract
Haemodynamic monitoring has developed considerably over the last decades, nowadays comprising a wide spectrum of different technologies ranging from invasive to completely non-invasive techniques. At present, the evidence to continuously measure and optimise stroke volume, that is, cardiac output, in order to prevent occult hypoperfusion in the perioperative setting and consequently to improve patients' outcome is substantial. Surprisingly, there is a striking discrepancy between the developments in advanced haemodynamic monitoring combined with evidence-based knowledge on the one hand and daily clinical routine on the other hand. Recent trials have shown that perioperative mortality is higher than anticipated, emphasising the need for the speciality of anaesthesiology to face the problem and to translate proven concepts into clinical routine to improve patients' outcome. One basic principle of these concepts is to monitor and to optimise cardiac function by means of advanced haemodynamic monitoring, using echocardiography, pulse contour analysis and beyond.

Abstract
Because acute lung injury (ALI) may arise from diverse and heterogeneous clinical insults, monitoring strategies for patients with ALI are heterogeneous as well. This review divides the monitoring strategies for ALI into three distinct phases. The "at-risk phase" is the period in which patients are at risk for ALI, and interventions may be applied to minimize or eliminate this risk. The "ALI phase" is the period during which ALI has occurred and requires attentive clinical management. The "resolution phase" is the period defined by resolution of ALI and successful discontinuation of mechanical ventilation. These phases are arbitrary, but they provide a useful framework for discussing the temporal changes in patient condition and monitoring goals in ALI.Invasive hemodynamic monitoring has specific roles in each phase of therapy for patients with ALI: pre-ALI, peri-ALI, and post-ALI. The primary goals are to optimize fluid resuscitation to prevent organ dysfunction, including ALI, and if ALI occurs to additional optimize fluid balance vis-à-vis the lung. By judicious application of invasive hemodynamic monitoring, particularly in its more modern iterations, clinicians can optimize the ebb and flow phases common to critically ill patients. This is vitally important given our current and growing understanding of the relationship between fluid balance and important clinical outcomes, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, and mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of disability, morbidity, and mortality. The effect of the acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute lung injury (ARDS/ALI) on in-hospital mortality after TBI remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To determine the epidemiology of ARDS/ALI, the prevalence of risk factors, and impact on in-hospital mortality after TBI in the United States. METHODS Retrospective cohort study of admissions of adult patients>18 years with a diagnosis of TBI and ARDS/ALI from 1988 to 2008 identified through the Nationwide Inpatient Sample. RESULTS During the 20-year study period, the prevalence of ARDS/ALI increased from 2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.1%-2.4%) in 1988 to 22% (95% CI, 21%-22%) in 2008 (P<.001). ARDS/ALI was more common in younger age; males; white race; later year of admission; in conjunction with comorbidities such as congestive heart failure, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal and liver failure, sepsis, multiorgan dysfunction; and nonrural, medium/large hospitals, located in the Midwest, South, and West continental US location. Mortality after TBI decreased from 13% (95% CI, 12%-14%) in 1988 to 9% (95% CI, 9%-10%) in 2008 (P<.001). ARDS/ALI-related mortality after TBI decreased from 33% (95% CI, 33%-34%) in 1988 to 28% (95% CI, 28%-29%) in 2008 (P<.001). Predictors of in-hospital mortality after TBI were older age, male sex, white race, cancer, chronic kidney disease, hypertension, chronic liver disease, congestive heart failure, ARDS/ALI, and organ dysfunctions. CONCLUSION Our analysis demonstrates that ARDS/ALI is common after TBI. Despite an overall reduction of in-hospital mortality, ARDS/ALI carries a higher risk of in-hospital death after TBI.

Abstract
The difference between mixed venous blood carbon dioxide tension (PvCO(2)) and arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO(2)), called ∆PCO(2) has been proposed to better characterize the hemodynamic status. It depends on the global carbon dioxide (CO(2)) production, on cardiac output and on the complex relation between CO(2) tension and CO(2) content. The aim of this review is to detail the physiological background allowing adequate interpretation of ∆PCO(2) at the bedside. Clinical and experimental data support the use of ∆PCO(2) as a valuable help in the decision-making process in patients with hemodynamic instability. The difference between central venous CO(2) tension and arterial CO(2) tension, which is easy to obtain can substitute for ∆PCO(2) to assess the adequacy of cardiac output. Differences between local tissue CO(2) tension and arterial CO(2) tension can also be obtained and provide data on the adequacy of local blood flow to the local metabolic conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ability of the third-generation FloTrac/Vigileo software to track changes in cardiac index (CI) induced by volume expansion and norepinephrine in critically ill patients is unknown. METHODS In subjects with circulatory failure, we administered volume expansion (20 subjects) and increased (20 subjects) or decreased (20 subjects) the dose of norepinephrine. We measured arterial pressure waveform-derived CI provided by the third-generation FloTrac/Vigileo device (CI(pw)) and transpulmonary thermodilution CI (CI(td)) before and after therapeutic interventions. RESULTS Considering the pairs of measurements performed before and after all therapeutic interventions (n=60), a bias between the absolute values of CI(pw) and CI(td) was 0.26 (0.94) litre min(-1) m(-2) and the percentage error was 54%. Changes in CI(pw) tracked changes in CI(td) induced by volume expansion with moderate accuracy [n=20, bias=-0.11 (0.54) litre min(-1) m(-2), r(2)=0.26, P=0.02]. When changes in CI(td) were induced by norepinephrine (n=40), a bias between CI(pw) and CI(td) was 0.01 (0.41) litre min(-1) m(-2) (r(2)=0.11, P=0.04). The concordance rates between changes in CI(pw) and CI(td) induced by volume expansion and norepinephrine were 73% and 60%, respectively. The bias between changes in CI(pw) and CI(td) significantly correlated with changes in total systemic vascular resistance (r(2)=0.41, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The third-generation FloTrac/Vigileo device was moderately reliable for tracking changes in CI induced by volume expansion and poorly reliable for tracking changes in CI induced by norepinephrine.

Abstract
Monitoring cardiac output for a variety of patient conditions is essential to ensure tissue perfusion and oxygenation. Cardiac output can be measured either invasively using a pulmonary artery catheter or non-invasively using impedance cardiography (ICG). The objective of the present study was to validate a cardiac output monitor, the qCO (Quantium Medical, Barcelona, Spain). The qCO is based on the ICG principle. Twenty-five volunteers (18-75 years) were enrolled in the study. The duration of the study was 10 min. The subjects were asked to rest quietly in an armchair for a duration of 5 min. At 5 min they were asked to do a Valsalva maneuver which is known to decrease the cardiac output. The baseline value of the normalized cardiac output (qCO index) was compared with the minimum value during the Valsalva maneuver. The results showed (t-test, p<0.0005) significant difference between the cardiac output estimated at baseline and during the Valsalva maneuver. In conclusion, the qCO was able to indicate trend changes of the cardiac output in volunteers.
