Role of the interstitium during septic shock: a key to the understanding of fluid dynamics? J Intensive Care 2023; 11:44. [PMID: 37817235 PMCID: PMC10565984 DOI: 10.1186/s40560-023-00694-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND While not traditionally included in the conceptual understanding of circulation, the interstitium plays a critical role in maintaining fluid homeostasis. Fluid balance regulation is a critical aspect of septic shock, with a well-known association between fluid balance and outcome. The regulation of transcapillary flow is the first key to understand fluid homeostasis during sepsis. MAIN TEXT Capillary permeability is increased during sepsis, and was classically considered to be necessary and sufficient to explain the increase of capillary filtration during inflammation. However, on the other side of the endothelial wall, the interstitium may play an even greater role to drive capillary leak. Indeed, the interstitial extracellular matrix forms a complex gel-like structure embedded in a collagen skeleton, and has the ability to directly attract intravascular fluid by decreasing its hydrostatic pressure. Thus, interstitium is not a mere passive reservoir, as was long thought, but is probably major determinant of fluid balance regulation during sepsis. Up to this date though, the role of the interstitium during sepsis and septic shock has been largely overlooked. A comprehensive vision of the interstitium may enlight our understanding of septic shock pathophysiology. Overall, we have identified five potential intersections between septic shock pathophysiology and the interstitium: 1. increase of oedema formation, interacting with organ function and metabolites diffusion; 2. interstitial pressure regulation, increasing transcapillary flow; 3. alteration of the extracellular matrix; 4. interstitial secretion of inflammatory mediators; 5. decrease of lymphatic outflow. CONCLUSIONS We aimed at reviewing the literature and summarizing the current knowledge along these specific axes, as well as methodological aspects related to interstitium exploration.

Abstract
The development of clinical congestion resulting from volume overload, either by renal fluid retention or redistribution of blood volume from venous reservoirs, is a recurrent scenario in patients with chronic heart failure (HF). As a result, the treatment of congestion, most commonly by initiating aggressive diuretic therapy, is a front-line issue in the management of patients with HF. However, the association of clinical congestion and volume overload with physical signs and symptoms, as well as other surrogates of volume assessment, has limitations in accuracy and, therefore, reliability to direct appropriate interventions. The ability to quantitate intravascular volume and identify the variability in volume profiles among patients with HF can uniquely inform individualized volume management and aid in risk stratification. This tool is provided by contemporary nuclear medicine-based BVA-100 methodology, which uses the well-established indicator-dilution principle and is a requested topic for discussion in this review.

Blood loss estimation during posterior spinal fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Spine Deform 2022; 10:581-588. [PMID: 34784000 DOI: 10.1007/s43390-021-00440-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Blood loss (BL) during posterior spinal fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) may be estimated using a variety of unproven techniques. Patient care and research on BL are likely impacted by a lack of standardization. A novel FDA-approved blood volume (BV) analysis system (BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer) allows rapid processing with > 97% accuracy. The purpose of this study was to investigate common methods for BL estimation. METHODS BV assessment was performed with the BVA-100. After obtaining a baseline sample of 5 mL of blood, 1 mL of I-131-labeled albumin was injected intravenously over 1 min. Five milliliter blood samples were then collected at 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 min post-injection. Intravenous fluid was minimized to maintain euvolemia. Salvaged blood was not administered during surgery. BL was estimated using several common techniques and compared to the BV measurements provided by the BVA-100 (BVABL). RESULTS Thirty AIS patients were prospectively enrolled with major curves of 54° and underwent fusions of 10 levels. BL based on the BVA-100 (BVABL) was 519.2 [IQR 322.9, 886.2] mL. Previously published formulas all failed to approximate BVABL. Multiplying the cell saver volume return by 3 (CS3) approximates BVABL well with a Spearman correlation coefficient and ICC of 0.80 and 0.72, respectively. An extrapolated cell salvage-based estimator also showed high intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Spearman coefficients with less bias than CS3. CONCLUSION Published formulaic approaches do not approximate true blood loss. Multiplying the cell saver volume by 3 or using the cell salvage-based estimator had the highest correlation coefficient and ICC. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prospective cohort Level 2.

Abstract
Background The measurement of circulating substrate concentrations does not provide information about substrate kinetics. It, therefore, remains unclear if a decrease in plasma concentration of albumin, as seen during critical illness, is a consequence of suppressed production in the liver or increased peripheral clearance. In this study, using stable isotope tracer infusions, we measured albumin and fibrinogen kinetics in septic patients and in a control group of non-septic subjects. Methods With the approval from the institutional Research Ethics Board and after obtaining written informed consent from patients or their substitute decision maker, mechanically ventilated patients with sepsis and patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting were enrolled. Patients in the non-sepsis group were studied on the day before surgery. The stable isotope L-[ring-2H5]phenylalanine was used to measure absolute synthesis rates (ASR) of albumin and fibrinogen. A priming dose of L-[ring-2H5]phenylalanine (4 µmol/kg) was given followed by a six-hour infusion at a rate of 0.15 µmol/kg/min. At baseline and hourly thereafter, blood was drawn to measure isotope enrichments by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Very low density lipoprotein apolipoprotein-B 100 isotopic enrichment was used to represent the isotopic enrichment of the phenylalanine precursor pool from which the liver synthesizes proteins. Plasma albumin and fibrinogen concentrations were also measured. Results Mean plasma albumin in septic patients was decreased when compared to non-septic patients, while synthesis rates were comparable. Mean plasma fibrinogen and ASR in septic patients was increased when compared to non-septic patients. In non-septic patients, no statistically significant correlation between plasma albumin and ASR was observed but plasma fibrinogen significantly correlated with ASR. In septic patients, plasma albumin and fibrinogen significantly correlated with ASR. Conclusions While septic patients showed lower plasma albumin levels than non-septic patients, albumin synthesis was similar in the two groups suggesting that hypoalbuminemia during sepsis was not caused by suppressed hepatic production but a result of enhanced clearance from the circulation. Hyperfibrinogenemia in septic patients was a consequence of increased fibrinogen production.

Credibility Assessment of a Subject-Specific Mathematical Model of Blood Volume Kinetics for Prediction of Physiological Response to Hemorrhagic Shock and Fluid Resuscitation.

Abstract
Subject-specific mathematical models for prediction of physiological parameters such as blood volume, cardiac output, and blood pressure in response to hemorrhage have been developed. In silico studies using these models may provide an effective tool to generate pre-clinical safety evidence for medical devices and help reduce the size and scope of animal studies that are performed prior to initiation of human trials. To achieve such a goal, the credibility of the mathematical model must be established for the purpose of pre-clinical in silico testing. In this work, the credibility of a subject-specific mathematical model of blood volume kinetics intended to predict blood volume response to hemorrhage and fluid resuscitation during fluid therapy was evaluated. A workflow was used in which: (i) the foundational properties of the mathematical model such as structural identifiability were evaluated; (ii) practical identifiability was evaluated both pre- and post-calibration, with the pre-calibration results used to determine an optimal splitting of experimental data into calibration and validation datasets; (iii) uncertainty in model parameters and the experimental uncertainty were quantified for each subject; and (iv) the uncertainty was propagated through the blood volume kinetics model and its predictive capability was evaluated via validation tests. The mathematical model was found to be structurally identifiable. Pre-calibration identifiability analysis led to splitting the 180 min of time series data per subject into 50 and 130 min calibration and validation windows, respectively. The average root mean squared error of the mathematical model was 12.6% using the calibration window of (0 min, 50 min). Practical identifiability was established post-calibration after fixing one of the parameters to a nominal value. In the validation tests, 82 and 75% of the subject-specific mathematical models were able to correctly predict blood volume response when predictive capability was evaluated at 180 min and at the time when amount of infused fluid equals fluid loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the performance of a rapid fluorescent indicator technique for measuring plasma volume (PV). METHODS This was an open-label, observational evaluation of a two-component intravenous visible fluorescent dye technique to rapidly measure PV in 16 healthy subjects and 16 subjects with chronic kidney disease (8 stage 3 and 8 stage 4 CKD), at 2 clinical research sites. The method consisted of a single intravenous injection of 12 mg of a large 150-kDa carboxy-methyl dextran conjugated to a fluorescent rhodamine-derived dye as the PV marker (PVM), and 35 mg of a small 5-kDa carboxy-methyl dextran conjugated to fluorescein, the renal clearance marker. Dye concentrations were quantified 15 min after the injections for initial PV measurements using the indicator-dilution principle. Additional samples were taken over 8 h to evaluate the stability of the PVM as a determinant of PV. Blood volumes (BV) were calculated based on PV and the subject's hematocrit. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated from the plasma concentration data taken over several days using noncompartmental methods (Phoenix WinNonlin®). Linear correlation and Bland-Altman plots were used to compare visible fluorescent injectate-measured PV compared to Nadler's formula for estimating PV. Finally, 8 healthy subjects received 350 mL infusion of a 5% albumin solution in normal saline over 30 min and a repeat PV determination was then carried out. RESULTS PV and BV varied according to weight and body surface area, with PV ranging from 2,115 to 6,234 mL and 28.6 to 41.9 mL/kg when weight adjusted. Both parameters were stable for > 6 h with repeated plasma measurements of the PVM. There was no difference between healthy subjects and CKD subjects. Overall, there was general agreement with Nadler's estimation formula for the mean PV in subjects. A 24-h repeat dose measurement in 8 healthy subjects showed PV variability of 98 ± 121 mL (mean = 3.8%). Additionally, following an intravenous bolus of 350 mL of a 5% albumin solution in normal saline in 8 healthy subjects, the mean (SD) measured increase in PV was 356 (±50.0) mL post-infusion. There were no serious adverse events reported during the study. CONCLUSIONS This minimally invasive fluorescent dye approach safely allowed for rapid, accurate, and reproducible determination of PV, BV, and dynamic monitoring of changes following fluid administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volume overload and depletion both lead to high morbidity and mortality. Achieving euvolemia is a challenge in patients with end stage kidney disease on hemodialysis (HD). Blood volume analysis (BVA) uses radiolabeled albumin to determine intravascular blood volume (BV). The measured BV is compared to an ideal BV (validated in healthy controls). We hypothesized that BVA could be used in HD to evaluate the adequacy of the current clinically prescribed "estimated dry weight" (EDW) and to titrate EDW in order to improve overall volume status. We were also interested in the reproducibility of BVA results in end stage kidney disease. METHODS Twelve adults on chronic HD were recruited; 10 completed the study. BVA (Daxor, New York, NY, USA) was used to measure BV at baseline. EDW was kept the same if the patient was deemed to be euvolemic by BVA otherwise, the prescribed EDW was changed with the aim that measured BV would match ideal BV. A second BVA measurement was done 1-3 months later in order to measure BV again. RESULTS Based on BVA, 6/10 patients were euvolemic at baseline and 5/10 were euvolemic at the second measurement. When comparing patients who had their prescribed EDW changed after the initial BVA to those who did not, both groups had similar differences between measured and ideal BV (P = 0.75). BV values were unchanged at the second measurement (P = 0.34) and there was no linear correlation between BV change and weight change (r2 = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS This pilot study is the first longitudinal measurement of BVA in HD patients. It revealed that changing weight did not proportionally change intravascular BV. BV remained stable for 1-3 months. BVA may not be helpful in clinically stable HD patients but studies on patients with hemodynamic instability and uncertain volume status are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study performed a retrospective outcome analyses of a large cohort of mixed ejection fraction patients admitted for acute heart failure (HF), whose inpatient care was guided by individual quantitative blood volume analysis (BVA) results. BACKGROUND Decongestion strategies in patients hospitalized for HF are based on clinical assessment of volume and have not integrated a quantitative intravascular volume metric. METHODS Propensity score control matching analysis was performed in 245 consecutive HF admissions to a community hospital (September 2007 to April 2014; 78 ± 10 years of age; 50% with HF with reduced ejection fraction [HFrEF]; and 30% with Stage 4 chronic kidney disease). Total blood volume (TBV), red blood cell volume (RBCV), and plasma volume (PV) were measured at admission by using iodine-131-labeled albumin indicator-dilution technique. Decongestion strategy targeted a TBV threshold of 6% to 8% above patient-specific normative values. Anemia was treated based on cause. Hematocrit (Hct) measurements were monitored to assess effectiveness of interventions. Control subjects derived from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services data were matched 10:1 for demographics, comorbidity, and year of treatment. RESULTS Although 66% of subjects had PV expansion, only 37% were hypervolemic (TBV >10% excess). True anemia (RBCV ≥10% deficit) was present in 62% of subjects. Treatment of true anemia without hypervolemia resulted in a rise in peripheral Hct of 2.7 ± 2.9% (p < 0.001), and diuretic treatment of hypervolemia in cases without anemia caused a 4.5 ± 3.9% (p < 0.001) increase in peripheral Hct at 11.3 ± 7.5 days after admission. Subjects had lower 30-day rates of readmission (12.2% vs. 27.7%, respectively; p < 0.001), of 30-day mortality (2.0% vs. 11.1%, respectively; p < 0.001), and of 365-day mortality (4.9% vs. 35.5%, respectively; p < 0.001) but longer lengths of stay (7.3 vs. 5.6 days, respectively; p < 0.001) than control subjects. CONCLUSIONS Retrospective outcomes using volume-guided HF therapy versus propensity-matched controls support the benefit of BVA in guiding volume management and reducing death and rehospitalization due to HF.

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

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Blood loss during surgery for thoracolumbar scoliosis often requires blood product transfusion. Rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) has enabled the more targeted treatment of coagulopathy, but its use in deformity surgery has received limited study. The authors investigated whether the use of ROTEM reduces transfusion requirements in this case-control study of thoracolumbar deformity surgery. METHODS Data were prospectively collected on all patients who received ROTEM-guided blood product management during long-segment (≥ 7 levels) posterior thoracolumbar fusion procedures at a single institution from April 2015 to February 2016. Patients were matched with a group of historical controls who did not receive ROTEM-guided therapy according to age, fusion segments, number of osteotomies, and number of interbody fusion levels. Demographic, intraoperative, and postoperative transfusion requirements were collected on all patients. Univariate analysis of ROTEM status and multiple linear regression analysis of the factors associated with total in-hospital transfusion volume were performed, with p < 0.05 considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS Fifteen patients who received ROTEM-guided therapy were identified and matched with 15 non-ROTEM controls. The mean number of fusion levels was 11 among all patients, with no significant differences between groups in terms of fusion levels, osteotomy levels, interbody fusion levels, or other demographic factors. Patients in the non-ROTEM group required significantly more total blood products during their hospitalization than patients in the ROTEM group (8.5 ± 4.2 units vs 3.71 ± 2.8 units; p = 0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the use of ROTEM (p = 0.016) and a lower number of fused levels (p = 0.022) were associated with lower in-hospital transfusion volumes. CONCLUSIONS ROTEM use during thoracolumbar deformity correction is associated with lower transfusion requirements. Further investigation will better define the role of ROTEM in transfusion during deformity surgery.

Abstract
Functional hemodynamic monitoring is the assessment of the dynamic interactions of hemodynamic variables in response to a defined perturbation. Recent interest in functional hemodynamic monitoring for the bedside assessment of cardiovascular insufficiency has heightened with the documentation of its accuracy in predicting volume responsiveness using a wide variety of monitoring devices, both invasive and noninvasive, and across multiple patient groups and clinical conditions. However, volume responsiveness, though important, reflects only part of the overall spectrum of functional physiologic variables that can be measured to define the physiologic state and monitor response to therapy.

Abstract
Fluid bolus therapy (FBT) is a standard of care in the management of the septic, hypotensive, tachycardic and/or oliguric patient. However, contemporary evidence for FBT improving patient-centred outcomes is scant. Moreover, its physiological effects in contemporary ICU environments and populations are poorly understood. Using three electronic databases, we identified all studies describing FBT between January 2010 and December 2013. We found 33 studies describing 41 boluses. No randomised controlled trials compared FBT with alternative interventions, such as vasopressors. The median fluid bolus was 500 ml (range 100 to 1,000 ml) administered over 30 minutes (range 10 to 60 minutes) and the most commonly administered fluid was 0.9% sodium chloride solution. In 19 studies, a predetermined physiological trigger initiated FBT. Although 17 studies describe the temporal course of physiological changes after FBT in 31 patient groups, only three studies describe the physiological changes at 60 minutes, and only one study beyond this point. No studies related the physiological changes after FBT with clinically relevant outcomes. There is a clear need for at least obtaining randomised controlled evidence for the physiological effects of FBT in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock beyond the period immediately after its administration. ‘Just as water retains no shape, so in warfare there are no constant conditions’ Sun Tzu (‘The Art of War’)

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surrogate indicators have often been used to estimate intravascular volume to guide fluid management. Brain-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been used as a noninvasive adjunct in the diagnosis of fluid overload and as a marker of response to therapy, especially in individuals with congestive heart failure. Similarly, right ventricular end-diastolic volume index (RVEDVI) measurements represent another parameter used to guide fluid resuscitation. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether BNP and RVEDVI are clinically valuable parameters that can distinguish among hypovolemia, euvolemia, and hypervolemia, as measured by blood volume (BV) analysis in critically ill surgical subjects. METHODS This observational study was part of a prospective, randomized controlled trial. Subjects with pulmonary artery catheters for the treatment of traumatic injuries, severe sepsis/septic shock, cardiovascular collapse, adult respiratory distress syndrome, and postsurgical care were studied. Circulating BV was measured by a radioisotope dilution technique using the BVA-100 Analyzer (Daxor Corporation, New York, NY) within the first 24 hours of acute resuscitation. BV results were reported as percent deviation from the patient's ideal BV based on height and percent deviation from optimum weight. Hypovolemia was defined as less than 0%, euvolemia was defined as 0% to +16%, and hypervolemia was defined as greater than +16% deviation from ideal BV. RVEDVI was measured by continuous cardiac output pulmonary artery catheters (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA). BNP and RVEDVI measurements obtained with BV analysis were evaluated with Fisher's exact test and regression analysis. RESULTS In 81 subjects, there was no difference in BV status between those with BNP of 500 pg/mL or greater and BNP of less than 500 pg/mL (p = 0.82) or in those with RVEDVI of 140 mL/m or greater and RVEDVI of less than 140 mL/m (p = 0.43). No linear relationship existed between BV and these parameters. CONCLUSION In critically ill surgical patients, BNP and RVEDVI were not associated with intravascular volume status, although they may be useful as indices that reflect increased cardiac preload.

Abstract
The method for determining blood volume has evolved substantially since first attempts were made in the latter part of the nineteenth century with the exsanguination of animals. The now accepted methods are based on indicator dilution methodologies. First attempts utilized inert dyes such as Evans Blue and Cardiogreen. These were found to be impractical due, primarily, to their rapid clearance from the blood. For many years, the most accepted method for blood volume determination was the dual isotope technique. This procedure utilizes chromium 51 or 99mTc to label autologous red cells and radioiodine 125 or 131 to label human serum albumin (HSA). Plasma and red cell volumes are measured separately and the results "combined". The procedure requires on-site labeling of autologous red cells and HSA, and meticulous preparation of standards and doses. The complexity of this method leads to performance times of 6 to 8 hours. An FDA-approved single isotope method is now employed in over 60 major institutions. HSA is labeled with radioiodine 131 at an FDA radiopharmaceutical facility, and test doses and standards are provided to laboratories in kit form. The red cell volume is derived by a calculation utilizing the measured plasma volume and the value for the average whole-body hematocrit. All calculations are carried out by a dedicated microprocessor, and a final report is generated and printed. The results are compared with predicted normal values for male and female patients based on percentage deviation from normal weight. Preliminary results are available in 30 minutes and complete calculations in 90 minutes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since pulmonary artery balloon flotation catheterization was first introduced in 1970, by HJ Swan and W Ganz, it has been widely disseminated as a diagnostic tool without rigorous evaluation of its clinical utility and effectiveness in critically ill patients. A pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) is inserted through a central venous access into the right side of the heart and floated into the pulmonary artery. PAC is used to measure stroke volume, cardiac output, mixed venous oxygen saturation and intracardiac pressures with a variety of additional calculated variables to guide diagnosis and treatment. Complications of the procedure are mainly related to line insertion. Relatively uncommon complications include cardiac arrhythmias, pulmonary haemorrhage and infarct, and associated mortality from balloon tip rupture. OBJECTIVES To provide an up-to-date assessment of the effectiveness of a PAC on mortality, length of stay (LOS) in intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital and cost of care in adult intensive care patients. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (The Cochrane Library 2011, Issue 12); MEDLINE (1954 to January 2012); EMBASE (1980 to January 2012); CINAHL (1982 to January 2012), and reference lists of articles. We contacted researchers in the field. We did a grey literature search for articles published until January 2012. SELECTION CRITERIA We included all randomized controlled trials conducted in adults ICUs, comparing management with and without a PAC. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We screened the titles and abstracts and then the full text reports identified from our electronic search. Two authors (SR and MG) independently reviewed the titles, abstracts and then the full text reports for inclusion. We determined the final list of included studies by discussion among the group members (SR, ND, MG, AK and SC) with consensus agreement. We included all the studies that were in the original review. We assessed seven domains of potential risk of bias for the included studies. We examined the clinical, methodological and statistical heterogeneity and used random-effects model for meta-analysis. We calculated risk ratio for mortality across studies and mean days for LOS. MAIN RESULTS We included 13 studies (5686 patients). We judged blinding of participants and personnel and blinding of outcome assessment to be at high risk in about 50% of the included studies and at low risk in 25% to 30% of the studies. Regardless of the high risk of performance bias these studies were included based on the low weight the studies had in the meta-analysis. We rated 75% of the studies as low risk for selection, attrition and reporting bias. All 13 studies reported some type of hospital mortality (28-day, 30-day, 60-day or ICU mortality). We considered studies of high-risk surgery patients (eight studies) and general intensive care patients (five studies) separately as subgroups for meta-analysis. The pooled risk ratio (RR) for mortality for the studies of general intensive care patients was 1.02 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.96 to 1.09) and for the studies of high-risk surgery patients the RR was 0.98 (95% CI 0.74 to 1.29). Of the eight studies of high-risk surgery patients, five evaluated the effectiveness of pre-operative optimization but there was no difference in mortality when these studies were examined separately. PAC did not affect general ICU LOS (reported by four studies) or hospital LOS (reported by nine studies). Four studies, conducted in the United States (US), reported costs based on hospital charges billed, which on average were higher in the PAC groups. Two of these studies qualified for analysis and did not show a statistically significant hospital cost difference (mean difference USD 900, 95% CI -2620 to 4420, P = 0.62). AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS PAC is a diagnostic and haemodynamic monitoring tool but not a therapeutic intervention. Our review concluded that use of a PAC did not alter the mortality, general ICU or hospital LOS, or cost for adult patients in intensive care. The quality of evidence was high for mortality and LOS but low for cost analysis. Efficacy studies are needed to determine if there are optimal PAC-guided management protocols, which when applied to specific patient groups in ICUs could result in benefits such as shock reversal, improved organ function and less vasopressor use. Newer, less-invasive haemodynamic monitoring tools need to be validated against PAC prior to clinical use in critically ill patients.
