Abstract
Traumatic injury results in drastic changes to a patient's normal physiology. The hormonal stress response, as well as some treatment strategies, lead to significant disruptions in electrolyte homeostasis that are important for clinicians to understand. In addition, advances in fluid resuscitation and modern transfusion practices have led to their own unique set of consequences, which we are just beginning to appreciate. Special attention is placed on rhabdomyolysis, as this distinct entity represents an extreme example of injury induced electrolyte derangements. This review describes the physiologic response to trauma and highlights some of the important electrolyte abnormalities that can be encountered while caring for the injured patient.

Effects of time on differential leucocyte counts and biochemical parameters of ovariohysterectomy, gastrotomy and intestinal resection and anastomosis in Nigerian indigenous dogs. Vet Anim Sci 2021; 14:100203. [PMID: 34541375 PMCID: PMC8436157 DOI: 10.1016/j.vas.2021.100203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2021] [Revised: 08/28/2021] [Accepted: 08/29/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Differential leucocytes counts and some biochemical parameters could be affected over time by surgical procedures leading to kidney failure. Hence this study evaluates the effects of ovariohysterectomy (OVH), gastrotomy (GAT) and intestinal resection and anastomosis (ITR) on differential leucocyte counts and some biochemical parameters in Nigerian dogs. Twelve dogs of both sexes weighing 10.8±0.7 kg were randomly divided into three experimental groups of four each. The dogs were pre-treated with atropine sulphate (0.04 mg/kg), Xylazine (2 mg/kg) and propofol (6 mg/kg) parenterally, for induction and maintenance of anaesthesia. Pentazocine (3 mg/kg) was injected after surgery. Pre and post-surgery blood samples were obtained at 0, 2, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 h respectively to determine differentials in leucocyte counts, electrolytes, lactate, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine. Mathematical formulas were used to calculate plasma creatinine, creatinine clearance, plasma creatinine clearance, creatinine half- life, urine creatinine and urine volume. There were significant increases (p ≤ 0.05) in mean sodium, chloride and bicarbonate concentrations at 2, 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h post-surgery in group 1 and 2, while group 3 had significant decreases (p ≤ 0.05) in sodium, chloride and bicarbonate ions. Lactate value decreased significantly (p<0.05) in group 1, and increased in group 2 and 3 respectively.BUN increased significantly (p<0.05) in group 1,2 and 3.However, there were significant increases (p<0.05) in lymphocyte concentrations in group 1 and 3, respectively. Monocytes decreased significantly (p<0.05) after surgery. Conclusion: Xylazine and propofol anaesthetics cause hyperlactatemia which can be detrimental in surgical patients with co-morbidities.

A new device for continuous assessment of gut perfusion: proof of concept on a porcine model of septic shock. Crit Care 2014; 18:R153. [PMID: 25030376 PMCID: PMC4223372 DOI: 10.1186/cc13992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2014] [Accepted: 06/24/2014] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We evaluate an innovative device consisting of an enteral feeding tube equipped with a photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor in contact with the duodenal mucosa. This study aims to determine if the PPG signal, composed of a continuous (PDC) and a pulsatile part (PAC), is a reliable method to assess gut perfusion in a porcine model of septic shock. METHOD Fourteen piglets were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated. They were randomly assigned to two groups: the nonseptic (NS) group received an infusion of Ringer's lactate solution (RL) alone, the septic (S) group received in addition a suspension of live Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Heart rate (HR), pulse oximetry (SpO2), mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac index (CI) and serum lactates were recorded and gut microcirculation (GM) was monitored with a laser Doppler probe applied on the duodenal serosa. PDC and PAC were given by the PPG probe inserted in the duodenum. Data was collected every 15 minutes (t0, t15…) during 150 minutes (t150). After administration of the bacteria suspension (t0), resuscitation maneuvers were performed following a defined algorithm. GM PAC, and PDC were expressed as variation from baseline (GMvar, PACvar, PDCvar). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures was performed to compare hemodynamic variables, with Bonferroni correction as post hoc analysis on t0, t60 and t150. RESULTS One piglet was withdrawn from analysis due to a defective probe. S group (six piglets) received resuscitation therapy while NS group (seven piglets) did not. A significant group effect was found for the all parameters except HR. Post hoc analysis found a significant decrease for GM and PAC at t60. The correlation between PAC, PDC and microcirculatory parameters were as follows: rPACvar-GMvar = 0.496, P <0.001, rPDCvar-GMvar = 0.244; P = 0.002. In the septic group, correlations were as follows: rPAC-lactate = -0.772, P <0.001; rPDC-lactate = -0.681, P <0.01). At the onset of shock, a decrease of PAC, PDC and GM occurred before the alteration of MAP. CONCLUSIONS PAC and PDC decreased at the onset of shock and were correlated with GM and lactate. These results confirm that PPG signal reliably reflects the early perfusion alteration of the gut. Further studies should assess the clinical use of this device.

Abstract
Severe hypophosphatemia may develop in postoperative patients for several reasons including alcohol withdrawal, diabetic ketoacidosis, nutritional recovery (refeeding) syndrome, and severe respiratory alkalosis. Severe hypophosphatemia may result in central nervous system abnormalities, muscle weakness, and renal, hepatic, cardiac, and respiratory dysfunction. Hypophosphatemia may be prevented by close monitoring of phosphorus concentrations in serum, especially in patients predisposed to developing this problem. Proper techniques for the maintenance and repletion of phosphate for both enteral and parenteral use are described.

Abstract
The plasma sodium concentration, [Na]P, falls following major surgery and this fall is exacerbated by the administration of sodium-free or sodium-low intravenous fluids in the postoperative period. As a prelude to prospective, but controlled, studies we observed the range of [Na]P on admission for surgery in 477 patients. In 309 patients the extent of the change in [Na]P by the first postoperative day (delta [Na]) was related to the severity of the operation undergone (minor, moderate or major) and the volume of potentially hypo-osmolar intravenous fluid given. The mean admission [Na]P was significantly lower with increasing severity of proposed operation. A highly significant fall occurred in [Na]P following surgery of every grade; such falls in [Na]P were seen even when no potentially hypo-osmolar fluids were administered. A significant inverse relationship between admission [Na]P and delta [Na] was demonstrated. We conclude that [Na]P falls following surgery of any severity and that such falls occur even when exogenous dilution cannot be implicated as a cause.

Abstract
Twenty-seven patients admitted for cholecystectomy were matched for age and sex in three groups for different perioperative fluid therapies over a period of 3 days. Group I was given an acetated half-isotone "balanced" saline solution with the addition of 2.5% glucose, Group II an acetated Ringer solution and Group III an isotonic glucose solution. Percutaneous muscle biopsies were performed before and on the third day after surgery for the determination of water content and the concentration of sodium, potassium, magnesium and chloride in skeletal muscle. The cumulative balance of sodium and potassium was measured daily during the study. In all three groups a significant increase in the total muscle water content was demonstrated. The concentration of sodium and chloride in skeletal muscle increased significantly in Groups II and III, whereas the concentration of potassium decreased in all groups. The cumulative sodium balance was positive in Groups I and II; the potassium balance was negative in all groups. In conclusion, the patients given the balanced saline solution showed the least change in water content and electrolyte concentrations in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Erythrocyte intracellular sodium concentration and transmembrane sodium flux were measured in nine healthy patients undergoing uncomplicated elective abdominal surgery. Intracellular sodium concentration was determined by in vitro washing of cells in a solution approximating to intracellular constituents and measuring extracellular sodium contamination with 51Cr EDTA. Sodium flux was determined by radioactive 22Na tracer both as influx and efflux. No change in erythrocyte intracellular sodium concentration or in sodium flux was found postoperatively. In 14 seriously ill surgical patients, all of whom had plasma sodium levels outside the tolerance range of our surgical population, erythrocyte intracellular sodium concentration decreased, but not significantly, compared with patients undergoing uncomplicated surgery (p = 0.16). Furthermore, sodium flux in seriously ill patients was proportional to intracellular sodium concentration. These results are at variance with the hypothesis of 'sick cell syndrome' which is said to be typified by a high intracellular sodium concentration and a reduced sodium efflux. In the surgical patients studied, it is more likely this hyponatremia does not result from a change in sodium flux but is dilutional.

Abstract
Abstract
In 14 patients having undergone abdominal surgery, plasma sodium, urine volume and osmolality and the urinary excretion of arginine vasopressin (AVP), the antidiuretic hormone in man, were measured daily for 7 days. Each patient was given 31 of intravenous fluids daily. In 8 patients the fluid was saline and in the other 6 it was dextrose-saline.
The plasma sodium did not change in the saline group whereas it fell in the dextrose-saline group during the day of operation and then remained low. On the day of operation the urinary AVP increased to very high levels in both groups of patients. On that day and during the postoperative period the AVP level and urine osmolality were much higher in the saline group than in the dextrose-saline group, which suggests that a loss or redistribution of extracellular fluid was not the cause of the high AVP. These results taken together suggest that it was the higher AVP level in the saline group that was required to keep the plasma sodium normal. On the other hand, the results suggest that in the dextrosesaline group, although the AVP was lower than in the saline group, it produced a urine osmolality greater than that necessary for balance so that the patients retained water and became hyponatraemic.
The fall in plasma sodium was small compared with that seen in patients with symptoms of water intoxication, but it may nevertheless have clinical effects and is best avoided. The results suggest that in these patients hyponatraemia can be avoided if saline rather than dextrose-saline is given on the day of operation.

Abstract
Nine burned patients were investigated. Urinary sodium retention was associated with low red cell water and reduced red cell filtrability. The red cells from patients who recovered lost less water than normal cells when suspended in hypertonic NaCl solution but the proportionality of water loss or gain found for normal cells was maintained. The red cells from fatally burned patients lost proportional behaviour in hypertonic or hypotonic media. The abnormalities are not related to the area of the burn and may be the result of varying therapy. The monitoring of red cell water and water movement under tonicity stress is a convenient measure of the metabolic state of the cell.

Abstract
The possible mechanisms of postoperative hypophosphataemia were studied in women undergoing uncomplicated cholecystectomy. Six patients were allocated to each of three groups. Group I received no intravenous fluids, group II received dextrose/saline solution alone and group III received dextrose/saline solution with phosphorus supplementation. The serum concentration of inorganic phosphorus fell in all three groups, the greatest fall being in the group receiving dextrose/saline solution. However, the lowest level reached (0.82 mmol/l) was within the normal range for our laboratory. Concentrations of red blood cell adenosine triphosphate and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate showed similar changes. The operations were not associated with a large catabolic response nor with an increase in urinary phosphorus excretion. The postoperative reduction in serum concentration of inorganic phosphorus appeared to be due mainly to haemodilution. There is no indication for routine phosphorus supplementation following uncomplicated elective surgery.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has been demonstrated to be an effective therapeutic means in improving the clinical course of the critically ill patients. Various metabolic complications are described; the cause of some of these remain unclear. The changes in some plasma enzyme indices (GOT, GPT, GIDH, LDH, HBDH, CPK, ChE, AP, gamma-GT) in two groups of critically ill patients undergoing TPN (group with more marked enzyme alterations and group with less marked alteration) were examined. Two types of alterations were found: (1) early increase of some enzymes (GOT, GPT, GIDH); (2) constant increase of plasma enzyme level during TPN (AP, gamma GT). These two evolutionary patterns were more evident in the complicated group and the enzyme changes were statistically significant for GOT and GPT (P = 0.05) and not significant for initial values of G1DH, ap and gamma-GT. Both groups presented constant elevated plasma values of LDH, HBDH, CPK and depressed constant ChE value during treatment; the difference was not significant in both groups for the same enzymes. The data were interpreted from a functional point of view; that is they were related to both the metabolic post-aggressive state and TPN. A relationship between the rate of protein catabolism and the inductive increase of some enzymes (GOT, GPT, G1DH) was found. Whereas a final induction in the energy metabolism is suggested for other enzymes (LDH, HBDH), the alteration of CPK, AP, gamma-GT and ChE was interpreted as dependent on: (1) direct muscular trauma (CPK); (2) functional increase in relation to the duration of TPN (AP and gamma-GT); (3) possible depressed malnutritive synthesis (ChE). The improvement of the enzymatic patterns with the early use of TPN and with the improvement of clinical and nutritional conditions was emphasized.

Abstract
The hourly urine volume and urine concentration of seven patients undergoing major abdominal surgery were measured during the operative and postoperative periods. From these, the hourly osmolar output was calculated. The results show that the osmolar output, 700 mOsm/day, in the peri-operative period is less than that of a 70 kg man consuming a normal 2000 calorie diet. Calculation of the osmolar output might help in the differentiation of postoperative oliguria and renal dysfunction.

Abstract
Measurement of plasma and urine osmolality is quick, easy and accurate. The recognition of the interdependence of urine volume and osmolality on the excretion of the daily obligatory solute load assists in the diagnosis and management of fluid balance and renal excretory problems in the acutely ill. In addition, syndromes of osmotic disequilibrium present a challenge in metabolic care.
