Cardiopulmonary Events of the Elderly (≥75 Years) during Clazosentan Therapy after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Retrospective Study from a Tertiary Stroke Center in Japan. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:185. [PMID: 38276064 PMCID: PMC10819954 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60010185] [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: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Clazosentan has been shown to prevent vasospasm and reduce mortality in patients after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and has been approved for clinical use in Japan; however, its systemic events in the elderly (aged ≥ 75 years) have not been well-documented. Here, we report serious/intolerable cardiopulmonary complications requiring discontinuation of drug therapy in elderly SAH patients. In this single-center case series study, medical records of consecutive SAH patients treated postoperatively with clazosentan (10 mg/h) between June 2022 and May 2023 were reviewed retrospectively. Thirty-three patients received clazosentan therapy, of whom six were elderly with a mean age of 80.3 ± 5.2 (range 75-89) years. Among them, despite no obvious medical history of systemic abnormalities, clazosentan was discontinued in three (50%) patients due to pleural effusion and hypoxemia with or without hypotension at 5 ± 3 days after therapy initiation, which was higher than the incidence for younger patients (15%). The elderly patients had significantly lower urine output (1935 ± 265 vs. 1123 ± 371 mL/day, p = 0.03) and greater weight gain (2.1 ± 1.1 vs. 4.2 ± 1.9 kg from baseline, p = 0.04) than patients who completed the therapy. One 89-year-old female developed congestive heart failure and hydrostatic pulmonary edema associated with increased intravascular and lung volumes even after therapy was discontinued, while the remaining two cases recovered within 2 days after drug cessation. These results suggest that elderly patients are more vulnerable to fluid retention and have a higher risk of cardiopulmonary complications during clazosentan therapy than younger patients. Careful monitoring of urine volume and weight gain and caution regarding age- and therapy-related hemodynamic insufficiencies are required.

Abstract
Adequate fluid therapy in the acute brain injured (ABI) patient is essential for maintaining an adequate brain and systemic physiology and preventing intra- and extracranial complications. The target of euvolemia, implying avoidance of both hypovolemia and fluid overloading (or "hypervolemia," by definition associated with fluid extravasation leading to tissue edema) is of key importance. Primary brain injury can be aggravated by secondary brain injury and systemic deterioration through diverse pathways which can challenge appropriate fluid management, e.g. neuroendocrine and electrolyte disorders, stress cardiomyopathy (also known as cardiac stunning) and neurogenic pulmonary edema. This is an updated expert opinion aiming to provide a practical overview on fluid therapy in the ABI patient, partly based on more recent work and stressing the fact that intravenous fluids should be regarded as drugs, with their inherent potential for both benefit and (unintended) harm.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is one of the most important complications of subarachnoid hemorrhage. Despite lack of prospective evidence, medical rescue interventions for DCI include hemodynamic augmentation using vasopressors or inotropes, with limited guidance on specific blood pressure and hemodynamic parameters. For DCI refractory to medical interventions, endovascular rescue therapies (ERTs), including intraarterial (IA) vasodilators and percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty, are the cornerstone of management. Although there are no randomized controlled trials assessing the efficacy of ERTs for DCI and their impact on subarachnoid hemorrhage outcomes, survey studies suggest that they are widely used in clinical practice with significant variability worldwide. IA vasodilators are first line ERTs, with better safety profiles and access to distal vasculature. The most commonly used IA vasodilators include calcium channel blockers, with milrinone gaining popularity in more recent publications. Balloon angioplasty achieves better vasodilation compared with IA vasodilators but is associated with higher risk of life-threatening vascular complications and is reserved for proximal severe refractory vasospasm. The existing literature on DCI rescue therapies is limited by small sample sizes, significant variability in patient populations, lack of standardized methodology, variable definitions of DCI, poorly reported outcomes, lack of long-term functional, cognitive, and patient-centered outcomes, and lack of control groups. Therefore, our current ability to interpret clinical results and make reliable recommendations regarding the use of rescue therapies is limited. This review summarizes existing literature on rescue therapies for DCI, provides practical guidance, and identifies future research needs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prevention and treatment of haemodynamic instability and increased intracranial pressure (ICP) in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is vital. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of protocolised cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP)-guided treatment on morbidity and functional outcome in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with SAH. METHODS We performed a retrospective study comparing 37 patients who received standard haemodynamic treatment (control group) with 17 individuals (CPP-guided group) who were on the CPP-guided treatment aimed at maintaining CPP > 70 mmHg using both optimisations of ICP and mean arterial pressure (MAP). RESULTS MAP, cumulative crystalloid doses and fluid balance were similar in both groups. However, the incidence of delayed cerebral ischaemia was significantly lower in the CPP-guided group (14% vs. 64%, p < 0.01), and functional outcome as assessed by the Glasgow Outcome Scale at 30 days after SAH was improved (29.0% vs. 5.5%, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS This preliminary analysis showed that implementing a CPP-guided treatment approach aimed at maintaining a CPP > 70 mmHg may reduce the occurrence of delayed cerebral ischaemia and improve functional outcomes in patients with SAH. This observation merits further prospective investigation of the use of CPP-guided treatment in patients with SAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary artery catheters are widely used for hemodynamical monitoring in critically ill patients. Acute brain injury is among the severe conditions treated in an intensive care unit. The advanced monitoring of hemodynamical parameters, fluid balance and adequate administered treatment based on those values are components of goal-directed therapy. METHODS A prospective observational study included adult patients who were hospitalized in the ICU due to acute bran injury, excluding brain oedema after cardiac arrest. Each patient had PAC inserted and hemodynamic data were collected during the first 3 days of the ICU stay every 6 h. Patients were divided into two groups based on the endpoint: the survivors and the deceased. RESULTS Length of stay in hospital differed between patiens. All patients, regardless of their outcome, had noradrenaline administered. The initial values of PAP differed between the groups (p = 0.05). There were positive correlations noticed between noradrenaline dose, CVP and fluid balance when compared to PCWP in a group of survivors and a positive correlation in the fluid balance when compared to PAP and PVRI. Lactate serum concentrations presented a correlation with the dose of noradrenaline in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Upon acute brain injury, values of PVRI and PAP increase. This is corelated with fluid load and worsened by an excessive fluid treatment in the case of an inconsiderate approach for stabilizing the patient hemodynamically. PAC may present limited advantages in terms of PAP and PVRI control during the treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury is still an important health problem worldwide. Traumatic brain injury not only causes direct mechanical damage to the brain but also induces biochemical changes that lead to secondary nerve cell loss. In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effect of milrinone after traumatic brain injury (TBI) in a rat model. METHODS Forty male Wistar albino rats, were used. Rats were divided into 4 groups: 1) sham, 2) TBI, 3) TBI + Ringers, and 4) TBI + Milrinone. In group 1 (sham), only craniotomy was performed. In group 2 (TBI), TBI was performed after craniotomy. In group 3 (TBI + Ringer), TBI was performed after craniotomy and intraperitoneal Ringers solution was given immediately afterward. Group 4 (TBI + Milrinone), TBI was performed after craniotomy, and milrinone was given 1.0 mg/kg milrinone intraperitoneally directly (0.5 mg/kg milrinone intraperitoneally again 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours after trauma). Tests were performed for neurological and neurobehavioral functions. Immunohistochemistry and histopathology studies were performed. RESULTS In group 4 compared with group 2 and group 3 groups, tests for neurological functions and neurobehavioral functions were significantly better. In the milrinone treatment used in group 4, plasma and brain tissue tumor necrosis factor, 8-OH 2-deoxyguanosine , and interleukin 6 levels were significantly decreased, and increased plasma and tissue IL-10 levels were detected. Histopathological spinal cord injury and apoptotic index increased in groups 2 and 3, while significantly decreasing in group 4. CONCLUSIONS This study shows for the first time that the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antiapoptotic properties of milrinone may be neuroprotective after TBI.

Abstract
Background Fluid management in patients after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) aims at the optimization of cerebral blood flow and brain oxygenation. In this study, we investigated the effects of hemodynamic management on brain oxygenation by integrating advanced hemodynamic and invasive neuromonitoring. Methods This observational cohort bi-center study included data of consecutive poor-grade SAH patients who underwent pulse contour cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring and invasive neuromonitoring. Fluid management was guided by the transpulmonary thermodilution system and aimed at euvolemia (cardiac index, CI ≥ 3.0 L/min/m2; global end-diastolic index, GEDI 680–800 mL/m2; stroke volume variation, SVV < 10%). Patients were managed using a brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO2) targeted protocol to prevent brain tissue hypoxia (BTH, PbtO2 < 20 mmHg). To assess the association between CI and PbtO2 and the effect of fluid challenges on CI and PbtO2, we used generalized estimating equations to account for repeated measurements. Results Among a total of 60 included patients (median age 56 [IQRs 47–65] years), BTH occurred in 23% of the monitoring time during the first 10 days since admission. Overall, mean CI was within normal ranges (ranging from 3.1 ± 1.3 on day 0 to 4.1 ± 1.1 L/min/m2 on day 4). Higher CI levels were associated with higher PbtO2 levels (Wald = 14.2; p < 0.001). Neither daily fluid input nor fluid balance was associated with absolute PbtO2 levels (p = 0.94 and p = 0.85, respectively) or the occurrence of BTH (p = 0.68 and p = 0.71, respectively). PbtO2 levels were not significantly different in preload dependent patients compared to episodes of euvolemia. PbtO2 increased as a response to fluid boluses only if BTH was present at baseline (from 13 ± 6 to 16 ± 11 mmHg, OR = 13.3 [95% CI 2.6–67.4], p = 0.002), but not when all boluses were considered (p = 0.154). Conclusions In this study a moderate association between increased cardiac output and brain oxygenation was observed. Fluid challenges may improve PbtO2 only in the presence of baseline BTH. Individualized hemodynamic management requires advanced cardiac and brain monitoring in critically ill SAH patients.

Hemodynamic Monitoring in Patients With Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Neurosurg Anesthesiol 2021; 33:285-292.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) often causes cardiopulmonary dysfunction. Therapeutic strategies can be guided by standard (invasive arterial/central venous pressure measurements, fluid balance assessment), and/or advanced (pulse index continuous cardiac output, pulse dye densitometry, pulmonary artery catheterization) hemodynamic monitoring. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature to determine whether standard compared with advanced hemodynamic monitoring can improve patient management and clinical outcomes after aSAH. A literature search was performed for articles published between January 1, 2000 and January 1, 2019. Studies involving aSAH patients admitted to the intensive care unit and subjected to any type of hemodynamic monitoring were included. A total of 14 studies were selected for the qualitative synthesis and 3 randomized controlled trials, comparing standard versus advanced hemodynamic monitoring, for meta-analysis. The incidence of delayed cerebral ischemia was lower in the advanced compared with standard hemodynamic monitoring group (relative risk [RR]=0.71, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.52-0.99; P=0.044), but there were no differences in neurological outcome (RR=0.83, 95% CI=0.64-1.06; P=0.14), pulmonary edema onset (RR=0.44, 95% CI=0.05-3.92; P=0.46), or fluid intake (mean difference=-169 mL; 95% CI=-1463 to 1126 mL; P=0.8) between the 2 groups. In summary, this systematic review and meta-analysis found only low-quality evidence to support the use of advanced hemodynamic monitoring in selected aSAH patients. Because of the small number and low quality of studies available for inclusion in the review, further studies are required to investigate the impact of standard and advanced hemodynamic monitoring-guided management on aSAH outcomes.

Abstract
The use of standardized management protocols (SMPs) may improve patient outcomes for some critical care diseases. Whether SMPs improve outcomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is currently unknown. We aimed to study the effect of SMPs on 6-month mortality and neurologic outcomes following SAH. A systematic review of randomized control trials (RCTs) and observational studies was performed by searching multiple indexing databases from their inception through January 2019. Studies were limited to adult patients (age ≥ 18) with non-traumatic SAH reporting mortality, neurologic outcomes, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and other important complications. Data on patient and SMP characteristics, outcomes and methodologic quality were extracted into a pre-piloted collection form. Methodologic quality of observational studies was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale, and RCT quality was reported as per the Cochrane risk of bias tool. A total of 11,260 studies were identified, of which 37 (34 full-length articles and 3 abstracts) met the criteria for inclusion. Two studies were RCTs and 35 were observational. SMPs were divided into four broad domains: management of acute SAH, early brain injury, DCI and general neurocritical care. The most common SMP design was control of DCI, with 22 studies assessing this domain of care. Overall, studies were of low quality; most described single-center case series with small patient sizes. Definitions of key terms and outcome reporting practices varied significantly between studies. DCI and neurologic outcomes in particular were defined inconsistently, leading to significant challenges in their interpretation. Given the substantial heterogeneity in reporting practices between studies, a meta-analysis for 6-month mortality and neurologic outcomes could not be performed, and the effect of SMPs on these measures thus remains inconclusive. Our systematic review highlights the need for large, rigorous RCTs to determine whether providing standardized, best-practice management through the use of a protocol impacts outcomes in critically ill patients with SAH.Trial registration Registration number: CRD42017069173.

Abstract
Blood lactate concentrations are often used to assess global tissue perfusion in critically ill patients; however, there are scarce data on lactate concentrations after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We aimed to assess the prognostic role of serial blood lactate measurements on hospital mortality and neurological outcomes at 3 months after SAH. We reviewed all SAH patients admitted to the intensive care unit from 2007 to 2019 and recorded the highest daily arterial lactate concentration for the first 6 days. Patients with no lactate concentration were excluded. Hyperlactatemia was defined as a blood lactate concentration >2.0 mmol/L. A total of 456 patients were included: 158 (35%) patients died in hospital and 209 (46%) had an unfavorable outcome (UO) at 3 months. The median highest lactate concentration was 2.7 (1.8–3.9) mmol/L. Non-survivors and patients with UO had significantly higher lactate concentrations compared to other patients. Hyperlactatemia increased the chance of dying (OR 4.19 (95% CI 2.38–7.39)) and of having UO in 3 months (OR 4.16 (95% CI 2.52–6.88)) after adjusting for confounding factors. Therefore, initial blood lactate concentrations have prognostic implications in patients with SAH; their role in conjunction with other prognostic indicators should be evaluated in prospective studies.

Abstract
Objective Optimizing cardiac stroke volume during high-risk surgical anesthesia is of particular interest with regard to a therapeutic target to reduce the incidence of postoperative complications. However, intensive fluid management in critically ill small animals with pulmonary hypertension (PH) has been empirically performed, and thus it can be challenging. Stroke volume variation (SVV) has been used as a dynamic preload predictor of fluid responsiveness. We hypothesized that if SVV exhibited robust reliability in the setting of hemodynamically unstable condition, it would provide more precise information on fluid resuscitation to translate it into veterinary anesthesia. Thus the aim of this study was to investigate the utility of SVV measured by the electrical velocimetry (EV) method for predicting fluid responsiveness in dogs with PH. Methods Sixteen dogs undergoing emergency abdominal surgery and diagnosed with PH secondary to myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) on preoperative transthoracic echocardiogram were included. Dogs were randomly assigned to 2 groups with and without inotropic cardiac support with dobutamine. Hemodynamic measurements including stroke volume and SVV derived from the EV device were performed under general anesthesia before (baseline) and after surgery (fluid challenge with a colloid solution defined by a SV increase of ≥ 10%). Results In both groups, SVV elevated significantly after abdominal surgery compared with baseline. In dobutamine infused group, the SVV values decreased significantly after fluid challenge (P < 0.05) with a greater number of responders than saline infused control group (P < 0.01). Receiver operating curve analysis of SVV confirmed high positive predictive value for dogs during dobutamine infusion (P < 0.05; cut-off value of 15%; specificity 90%, sensitivity 82%). Conclusions Noninvasive EV monitoring may be useful for the prediction of fluid responsiveness in critically ill dogs with left-sided heart failure-related PH. This normalization of dynamic preload indices, which could be achieved more precisely under inotropic support, may prevent further detrimental consequence of fluid loading.

Bioreactance-Based Noninvasive Fluid Responsiveness and Cardiac Output Monitoring: A Pilot Study in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage and Literature Review. Crit Care Res Pract 2020; 2020:2748181. [PMID: 33014461 PMCID: PMC7512079 DOI: 10.1155/2020/2748181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2019] [Revised: 08/05/2020] [Accepted: 09/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Management of volume status, arterial blood pressure, and cardiac output are core elements in approaching the patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). For the prevention and treatment of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), euvolemia is advocated and caution is made towards the avoidance of hypervolemia. Induced hypertension and cardiac output augmentation are the mainstays of medical management during active DCI, whereas the older triple-H paradigm has fallen out of favor due to lack of demonstrable physiological or clinical benefits and serious concern for adverse effects such as pulmonary edema and multiorgan system dysfunction. Furthermore, insight into clinical hemodynamics of patients with SAH becomes salient when one considers the frequently associated cardiac and pulmonary manifestations of the disease such as SAH-associated cardiomyopathy and neurogenic pulmonary edema. In terms of fluid and volume targets, less attention has been paid to dynamic markers of fluid responsiveness despite the well-established, in the general critical care literature, superiority of these as compared to traditionally used static markers such as central venous pressure (CVP). Based on this literature and sound pathophysiologic reasoning, reliance on static markers (such as CVP) is unjustified when one attempts to assess strategies augmenting stroke volume (SV), arterial blood pressure, and oxygen delivery. There are several options for continuous bedside cardiorespiratory monitoring and optimization of SAH patients. We, here, review a noninvasive monitoring technique based on thoracic bioreactance and focusing on continuous cardiac output and fluid responsiveness markers.

Abstract
Background and Purpose:
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is the most important cause for a poor clinical outcome after a subarachnoid hemorrhage. The aim of this study was to assess whether goal-directed hemodynamic therapy (GDHT), as compared to standard clinical care, reduces the rate of DCI after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Methods:
We conducted a prospective randomized controlled trial. Patients >18 years of age with an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were enrolled and randomly assigned to standard therapy or GDHT. Advanced hemodynamic monitoring and predefined GDHT algorithms were applied in the GDHT group. The primary end point was the occurrence of DCI. Functional outcome was assessed using the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) 3 months after discharge.
Results:
In total, 108 patients were randomized to the control (n=54) or GDHT group (n=54). The primary outcome (DCI) occurred in 13% of the GDHT group and in 32% of the control group patients (odds ratio, 0.324 [95% CI, 0.11–0.86];
P
=0.021). Even after adjustment for confounding parameters, GDHT was found to be superior to standard therapy (hazard ratio, 2.84 [95% CI, 1.18–6.86];
P
=0.02). The GOS was assessed 3 months after discharge in 107 patients; it showed more patients with a low disability (GOS 5, minor or no deficits) than patients with higher deficits (GOS 1–4) in the GDHT group compared with the control group (GOS 5, 66% versus 44%; GOS 1–4, 34% versus 56%;
P
=0.025). There was no significant difference in mortality between the groups.
Conclusions:
GDHT reduced the rate of DCI after subarachnoid hemorrhage with a better functional outcome (GOS=5) 3 months after discharge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid therapy guided by cardiac output measurements is of particular importance for adequate cerebral perfusion and oxygenation in neurosurgical patients. We examined the usefulness of a noninvasive electrical velocimetry (EV) device based on the thoracic bioimpedance method for perioperative hemodynamic monitoring in patients after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. PATIENTS AND METHODS In total, 18 patients who underwent surgical clipping or endovascular coiling for ruptured aneurysms were examined prospectively. Simultaneous cardiac index (CI) measurements obtained with EV (CIEV) and reference transpulmonary thermodilution (CITPTD) were compared. A total of 223 pairs of data were collected. RESULTS A significant correlation was found between CIEV and CITPTD (r=0.86; P<0.001). Bland and Altman analysis revealed a bias between CIEV and CITPTD of -0.06 L/min/m, with limits of agreement of ±1.14 L/min/m and a percentage error of 33%. Although the percentage error for overall data was higher than the acceptable limit of 30%, subgroup analysis during the postoperative phase showed better agreement (23% vs. 42% during the intraprocedure phase). Four-quadrant plot and polar plot analyses showed fair-to-poor trending abilities (concordance rate of 90% to 91%, angular bias of +17 degrees, radial limits of agreement between ±37 and ±40 degrees, and polar concordance rate of 72% to 75%), including the subgroup analysis. CONCLUSIONS Absolute CI values obtained from EV and TPTD are not interchangeable with TPTD for perioperative use in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. However, considering the moderate levels of agreement with marginal trending ability during the early postoperative phase, this user-friendly device can provide an attractive monitoring option during neurocritical care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines on the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) recommend euvolemia, whereas hypervolemia may cause harm. We investigated whether high early fluid input is associated with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), and if fluid input can be safely decreased using transpulmonary thermodilution (TPT). METHODS We retrospectively included aSAH patients treated at an academic intensive care unit (2007-2011; cohort 1) or managed with TPT (2011-2013; cohort 2). Local guidelines recommended fluid input of 3 L daily. More fluids were administered when daily fluid balance fell below +500 mL. In cohort 2, fluid input in high-risk patients was guided by cardiac output measured by TPT per a strict protocol. Associations of fluid input and balance with DCI were analyzed with multivariable logistic regression (cohort 1), and changes in hemodynamic indices after institution of TPT assessed with linear mixed models (cohort 2). RESULTS Cumulative fluid input 0 to 72 hours after admission was associated with DCI in cohort 1 (n=223; odds ratio [OR] 1.19/L; 95% confidence interval 1.07-1.32), whereas cumulative fluid balance was not. In cohort 2 (23 patients), using TPT fluid input could be decreased from 6.0 ± 1.0 L before to 3.4 ± 0.3 L; P = .012), while preload parameters and consciousness remained stable. CONCLUSION High early fluid input was associated with DCI. Invasive hemodynamic monitoring was feasible to reduce fluid input while maintaining preload. These results indicate that fluid loading beyond a normal preload occurs, may increase DCI risk, and can be minimized with TPT.

Abstract
We evaluated the neuroprotective role of rapamycin, a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase inhibitor, in cerebral ischaemia and locomotor function in a mouse model of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Pretreatment with rapamycin, an mTOR kinase inhibitor, resulted in better recovery from cerebral hypoxia early after SAH than control (P < .05), while the values of peak flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery did not change significantly (P > .05). Average distance travelled and the ratio of central-area distance/total travelled distance determined by open-field test after day 14 was significantly higher in mice pretreated with rapamycin than in control mice (P < .05). Inhibition of the mTOR pathway could be protective against post-SAH early brain injury, ameliorating brain tissue hypoxia and locomotor hypoactivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of goal-directed hemodynamic management using transpulmonary thermodilution (TPT) monitor on the cognitive function of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remain unclear. The present study aimed to determine whether hemodynamic management with TPT monitor provides better cognitive function compared with standard hemodynamic management. METHODS Patients with aSAH who were admitted to the intensive care unit in 2016 were assigned to cohort 1, and those admitted in 2017 were assigned to cohort 2. In cohort 1, hemodynamic and fluid management was performed in accordance with the traditional pressure-based hemodynamic parameters and clinical examination, whereas in cohort 2, it was performed in accordance with the TPT monitor-measured flow-based parameters. The incidence of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and pulmonary edema (PE) was determined. The functional outcome of patients was assessed using the modified Rankin scale (mRS) score and Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) test at 1 year following aSAH. RESULTS Cohort 1 included 45 patients and cohort 2 included 39 patients who completed the trial. The incidence of DCI (38% versus 26%) and PE (11% versus 3%) was comparable between the cohorts (p > 0.05). The mRS score was similar between the cohorts (p = 0.11). However, the MoCA score was 20.2 (19.2-21.4) and 23.5 (22.2-24.8) in cohort 1 and cohort 2, respectively (p < 0.001). Accordingly, the occurrence of poor MoCA score (38% versus 18%) was significantly lower in cohort 2 (p = 0.045). CONCLUSIONS TPT monitor-based hemodynamic management provides better cognitive outcome than standard hemodynamic management in patients with aSAH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Optimal fluid management is important in patients with acute brain injury, including subarachnoid hemorrhage. We aimed to examine the relationship between daily fluid intake and fluid balance with hospital complications and functional outcome. DESIGN Retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING Neurocritical care unit at a tertiary academic medical center. PATIENTS Two-hundred thirty-seven consecutive nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage patients admitted to the neurologic ICU between 2010 and 2016. INTERVENTIONS Total daily amount of fluids and fluid balance were calculated over 15 days. Using multivariate generalized estimating equation models the association of daily fluid intake and fluid balance with disease severity, hospital complications and poor functional outcome (3-mo modified Rankin Score ≥ 3) was investigated. Additionally, we described the composition of fluids given. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Patients presented with a median admission Hunt and Hess grade of 3 (interquartile range, 1-5) and were 57 years old (interquartile range, 47-67 yr old). A higher daily fluid intake was associated with higher admission Hunt and Hess grade (odds ratio, 1.61; 95% CI, 1.47-1.76; p < 0.001), increased pulmonary fluid accumulation (adjusted odds ratio, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.01-1.21; p = 0.033), prolonged mechanical ventilation (Wald statistic = 20.08; degrees of freedom = 1; p < 0.001), higher daily Subarachnoid hemorrhage Early Brain Edema Score (adjusted odds ratio, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.01-1.22; p = 0.034), occurrence of anemia (adjusted odds ratio, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.20-1.54; p < 0.001), delayed cerebral ischemia (adjusted odds ratio, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.14-1.51; p < 0.001), and poor functional outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.10-1.41; p < 0.001). Daily fluid balance was associated with higher admission Hunt and Hess grade (odds ratio, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.05-1.13; p < 0.001) and anemia (adjusted odds ratio, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.03-1.33; p = 0.019). The main contributors to fluids were nutritional compounds (31%), IV drugs (30%), and volume substitution (17%). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates a significant association of fluid intake but not fluid balance with hospital complications and poor functional outcome in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. A larger prospective study is needed to confirm our results.

Importance of Managing the Water-Electrolyte Balance by Delivering the Optimal Minimum Amount of Water and Sodium After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. World Neurosurg 2019; 129:e352-e360. [PMID: 31132492 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2019.05.152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2019] [Revised: 05/15/2019] [Accepted: 05/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND After aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), crystalloid fluids with a relatively high sodium concentration have been used to maintain the cerebral blood flow. However, the prophylactic delivery of water and sodium by intravenous (IV) infusion will not necessarily improve the prognosis of patients after aSAH, and the excessive supply of water and sodium can negatively affect the outcome. We hypothesized that the delivery of an optimal amount of water and sodium separately might improve the outcome after aSAH. METHODS We recruited 55 consecutive patients who had undergone clipping or endovascular coil embolization after aSAH. Group 1 (n = 33) received conventional therapy (i.e., prophylactic IV sodium and water [protocol 1]). Group 2 (n = 22) received the optimal amount of water and sodium separately (protocol 2). RESULTS The median total of water and sodium chloride supplied in group 1 was significantly greater than that supplied in group 2 (P < 0.01). The modified Rankin scale score at discharge was 0-2 in 15 patients (95%) in group 2 and 23 patients (55%) in group 1 (P < 0.001). On multivariate logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio for a discharge modified Rankin scale score of 0-2 or 3-6 was significantly associated with the treatment protocol (P < 0.05) and the net fluid balance on days 4-8 (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The separate delivery of optimal amounts of water and sodium could be a promising therapeutic strategy to improve the prognosis after aSAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulse index continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) is used for hemodynamic assessment. This study describes real world extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) measurements at three time points and relates them to other hemodynamic parameters and mortality in critically ill patients admitted to a medical intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS A total of 198 patients admitted to a tertiary medical university hospital between February 2004 and December 2010 were included in this retrospective analysis. Patients were admitted for various diseases such as sepsis (n = 22), myocardial infarction (n = 53), pulmonary embolism (n = 3), cardiopulmonary resuscitation (n = 15), acute heart failure (AHF; n = 21) and pneumonia (n = 25). RESULTS Patients included in this analysis were severely ill as represented by the high simplified acute physiology score 2 (SAPS2, 42 ± 18) and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation score 2 (APACHE2' 22 ± 9). Real-world values at three time points are provided. Intra-ICU mortality rates did not differ between the EVLWI > 7 vs. the ELVWI < 7 groups (15% vs. 13%; p = 0.82) and no association between hemodynamic measurements obtained by PiCCO with long-term mortality could be shown. CONCLUSION There were no associations of any PiCCO measurements with mortality most probably due to selection bias towards severely ill patients. Future prospective studies with predefined inclusion criteria and treatment algorithms are necessary to evaluate the value of PiCCO for prediction of mortality against simple clinical tools such as jugular venous pressure, edema and auscultation.

Abstract
Early brain injury and related cardiac consequences play a key role in the devastating outcomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We reported that rapamycin exerts neuroprotection against cortical hypoxia early after SAH, but its mechanism is poorly understood. This in vivo study aimed to determine the potential role of the transcription factor STAT3 in the rapamycin-mediated neuroprotection in a mouse model of SAH. Forty C57BL/6 N mice were treated with an intracerebroventricular injection of rapamycin or vehicle (control) given after SAH induction by a filament perforation method, with or without STAT3 (Stattic) or ERK (PD98059) inhibitor pretreatment. Cerebral blood flow signals (%vascularity), brain tissue oxygen saturation (SbtO2), and cardiac output (CO) were analyzed using an ultrasound/photoacoustic imaging system. Clinically relevant neurocardiac depression was notable in severe SAH mice. Rapamycin improved %vascularity, SbtO2, and CO on day 1 after SAH onset. The beneficial effects of rapamycin on cerebral blood flow and oxygenation persisted until day 3, resulting in a significant reduction in post-SAH new cerebral infarctions and survival, as well as improved neurological functions, compared to the control group. All of the effects were attenuated by pretreatment with Stattic or PD98059. These data suggest that ERK and JAK/STAT3 pathways play an important role in the neurocardiac protection by rapamycin after SAH. We propose that rapamycin is a novel pharmacological strategy to target STAT3 activation, with a possible crosstalk through the ERK pathway, for the treatment of post-SAH early brain injury.

Abstract
Background Fluid resuscitation is a cornerstone of minimizing morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients, but the techniques for predicting fluid responsiveness is still a matter of debate. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the utility of noninvasive stroke volume variation (SVV), pulse pressure variation (PPV), and systolic pressure variation (SPV) as a dynamic predictor for assessing fluid responsiveness during different ventilation modes in anaesthetized, intubated dogs recovering from cardiac surgery. Material/Methods Thirty-six adult Beagle dogs undergoing experimental surgery for isolated right ventricular failure were monitored for SVV, PPV, and SPV simultaneously using electrical velocimetry device. The relationships between each indicator and SVI before and after volume loading were compared in 3 ventilatory modes: assist control (A/C), synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV), and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Responders were defined as those whose stroke volume index increased by ≥10%. Results In all of the indices, the baseline values were greater in responders than in nonresponders (P<0.01) under A/C and SIMV. Receiver operating curve analysis confirmed the best predictive value during A/C [area under the curve (AUC): SVV, 0.90; PPV, 0.88; SPV, 0.85; P<0.05] followed by SIMV (AUC: SVV, 0.86; PPV, 0.83; CPAP, 0.80; P<0.05), with their sensitivities and specificities of ≥7 5%. By contrast, no statistically significance detected in any parameter during CPAP (AUC: SVV, 0.71; PPV, 0.66; CPAP, 0.65; P>0.05). Conclusions SVV, PPV, and SVV are all useful to predict cardiac response to fluid loading in dogs during A/C and SIMV, while their reliabilities during CPAP are poor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to describe real world extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) measurements obtained by pulse index continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) on the day of admission. These were then related to a radiologic score for lung edema, Halperin score and both the Halperin score and EVLWI were assessed for prediction of in-hospital mortality in critically ill patients. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 311 patients admitted to a tertiary medical university hospital between February 2004 and December 2010 were included in this retrospective analysis and of these 177 patients were intubated. In-hospital mortality was assessed by logistic regression. In the overall cohort, EVLWI and the Halperin score correlated poorly (r = 0.17; p = 0.02). In intubated patients, EVLWI and Halperin score did not correlate (r = 0.09; p = 0.39), whereas in patients who were not intubated there was a moderate association (r = 0.30; p = 0.007). In the overall cohort, (a) EVLWI (hazard ratio [HR] 1.10, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.19; p = 0.01; area under the curve [AUC] 0.63, 95% CI 0.54-0.71) but not (b) Halperin score (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.996-1.004; p = 0.94; AUC 0.52, 95% CI 0.45-0.58) was associated with in-hospital mortality There was a robust association of EVLWI (HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.01-1.25; p = 0.03) but not Halperin score (HR 1.003, 95% CI 0.997-1.009; p = 0.30) with mortality in non-intubated patients. In intubated patients, neither EVLWI (HR 0.997 95% CI 0.990-1.003; p = 0.33) nor Halperin score (HR 1.08; 95% CI 0.88-1.32; p = 0.47) was associated with mortality. CONCLUSION The EVLWI correlated moderately with a radiologic score for lung edema, the Halperin score, in non-intubated but not in intubated patients. The EVLWI at admission was associated with in-hospital mortality in our patient collective of critically ill patients and might constitute not only a tool for risk stratification but most importantly a valuable treatment goal.

Abstract
Background: Following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, peripherally-drawn lactic acid has been associated with poor outcomes; however, its clinical significance is unknown. We investigated admission factors and patient outcomes associated with serum lactic acid in this population. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study of 105 consecutive patients with serum lactate collected within 24 h of admission. Primary objectives were to determine the incidence of admission lactic acidemia, and factors positively and negatively associated with lactate levels. We also sought to determine if admission lactic acidemia was associated with patient outcomes, including vasospasm, delayed cerebral ischemia, mortality, and discharge disposition. Results: Admission serum lactic acid was elevated in 56 patients (53% of the cohort). Levels were positively associated with Hunt & Hess and modified Fisher grade, glucose, troponin I and white blood cell counts, and negatively associated with GCS and ventilator-free days. Admission lactate was not associated with the development of vasospasm or delayed cerebral ischemia. Patients with elevated lactic acid more often died during hospitalization, and less often were discharged home. After adjusting for other predictors of poor outcome, the adjusted odds of inpatient mortality (OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.79–1.20; p = 0.80) and discharge to home (OR 1.00, 95% CI 0.80–1.26; p = 0.97) was not associated with admission lactic acid. Conclusions: Early serum lactic acid elevation is common following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and is associated with the clinical and radiographic grade of hemorrhage. Levels did not independently predict short-term outcomes when adjusted for established predictors of poor outcome. Further study is needed to determine the clinical significance of peripherally-drawn lactic acid in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
PURPOSE Arterial vasospasm is a major cause of death and long-term disability following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). The use of medically induced hypertension, hypervolaemia and/or haemodilution is widely practiced for prophylaxis and treatment of vasospasm following SAH. We aimed to determine if the quality of available research is adequate to inform use of haemodynamic management strategies to prevent or treat vasospasm following SAH. METHODS Individual searches of the following databases were conducted: The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE, EMBASE and OpenSIGLE. Pertinent randomised clinical trials and cohort studies comparing any element or combination thereof: medically induced hypertension, hypervolaemia, and haemodilution were included. Data were extracted using standardised proformas and risk of bias assessed using a domain-based risk of bias assessment tool. RESULTS 348 study reports were identified by our literature search. Eight studies were included, three of which examined both volume expansion and medically induced hypertension. Three randomised clinical trials and two cohort studies examining prophylactic volume expansion were included. Two trials of prophylactic medically induced hypertension and two cohort studies were included. One trial and one cohort study of medically induced hypertension for treatment of established vasospasm was included. These trials demonstrated no significant difference in any of the clinical outcome measures studied. No trials of blood transfusion were included. CONCLUSIONS There is currently insufficient evidence to determine the efficacy or non-efficacy of intravenous volume expansion, medically induced hypertension or blood transfusion for the treatment or prophylaxis of vasospasm following SAH. All of these approaches have been associated with adverse events, of unclear incidence. The current evidence base therefore cannot be used to reliably inform clinical practice. This is a priority for further research.

Abstract
Tooth loss and related changes in the functionality may lead to worse outcome of stroke patients, but the effect on hemorrhagic stroke remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the impact of impaired masticatory function on acute cerebral oxygenation and locomotor activity after experimental subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Twenty C57BL/6 mice with (MC-treated group) or without (control group) prior treatment of cutting off the upper molars were subjected to SAH by endovascular perforation. Grading of SAH and acute cerebral infarction were assessed by MR images. Brain tissue oxygen saturation (SbtO2 ) by photoacoustic imaging and parameters related to locomotor activity by open-field test were analyzed serially after SAH. In all mice, global SbtO2 depression was notable immediately after SAH induction (P <.001), which recovered close to the baseline levels until day 3. However, MC-treated mice demonstrated a prolonged relative cerebral hypoxia (<40% of the baseline SbtO2) as compared to the control (3 ± 1 vs 1 ± 1 days; P <.05). The average distance travelled on day 7 and the ratio of central-area distance/total travelled distance by open-field test between days 7 and 14 were significantly lower in MC-treated mice than in the control mice (P <.05), although the occurrences of new infarction were not statistically different (P >.05). These data suggest a possible link between preceding masticatory impairment and early brain injury to deteriorate neurobehavioural function in patients after SAH.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of cerebral blood flow (CBF) recovery obtained from brain single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images on postoperative outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). Twenty-nine patients who had undergone surgical clipping for ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms were analyzed prospectively. Routine measurements of CBF were performed using technetium-99 m hexamethyl propyleneamine oxine SPECT on days 4 and 14 after SAH. Regional voxel data analyzed by three dimensional stereotactic surface projection (3D-SSP) were compared between patients and age-matched normal database (NDB). In 3D-SSP analysis of all patients, cortical hypoperfusion around the surgical site in bilateral frontal lobes was evident on day 4 (P < .05 vs NDB), which was improved significantly on day 14. However, the recovery was less complete in patients with poor clinical grades (P < .05) and presenting symptoms attributable to delayed cerebral ischaemia (DCI) (P < .05) than those without. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with mild to moderate CBF recovery (relative Z-score differences of <4) (P = .014; odds ratio, 2.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.93-3.31) was independently associated with poor functional outcome at 3 months. We conclude that reduced CBF recovery detected by serial 3D-SSP SPECT image analyses can be a potential predictor of poor prognosis in postoperative patients after SAH.

BACKGROUND Guidelines on the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) recommend euvolemia, whereas hypervolemia may cause harm. We investigated whether high early fluid input is associated with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), and if fluid input can be safely decreased using transpulmonary thermodilution (TPT). METHODS We retrospectively included aSAH patients treated at an academic intensive care unit (2007-2011; cohort 1) or managed with TPT (2011-2013; cohort 2). Local guidelines recommended fluid input of 3 L daily. More fluids were administered when daily fluid balance fell below +500 mL. In cohort 2, fluid input in high-risk patients was guided by cardiac output measured by TPT per a strict protocol. Associations of fluid input and balance with DCI were analyzed with multivariable logistic regression (cohort 1), and changes in hemodynamic indices after institution of TPT assessed with linear mixed models (cohort 2). RESULTS Cumulative fluid input 0 to 72 hours after admission was associated with DCI in cohort 1 (n=223; odds ratio [OR] 1.19/L; 95% confidence interval 1.07-1.32), whereas cumulative fluid balance was not. In cohort 2 (23 patients), using TPT fluid input could be decreased from 6.0 ± 1.0 L before to 3.4 ± 0.3 L; P = .012), while preload parameters and consciousness remained stable. CONCLUSION High early fluid input was associated with DCI. Invasive hemodynamic monitoring was feasible to reduce fluid input while maintaining preload. These results indicate that fluid loading beyond a normal preload occurs, may increase DCI risk, and can be minimized with TPT.

Abstract
PURPOSE In patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), acute cardiac dysfunction and triple-H-therapy, can lead to hypoxemia. Our aim was to assess impact of a protocoled fluid restrictive approach on hypoxemia in these patients. METHODS We included prospectively ICU patients with aSAH admitted within 24h after the bleed. The study was divided into 2 phases. The first phase, from January to December 2012, was designated as control group (group C). The second phase, from February 2014 to January 2015, was designated as study group (group S). Between these periods, a protocoled fluid intake approach was implemented to maintain as low as possible the cumulative fluid balances. RESULTS Effective fluid restriction was obtained: at day 3 cumulative fluid balances were respectively for group C and group S, 1559±2402ml and 759±1855ml (p=0.04); and 2211±4918ml vs 529±2806ml (p=0.04) at day 7. We observed reduction in proportion of hypoxemic patient in group S compared to group C, at day 3 (22% vs 40%, p=0.047) and at day 7 (28% vs 57%, p=0.007). CONCLUSIONS Fluid restrictive management of patients with aSAH decreases number of hypoxemic patients at day 3 and day 7.

Abstract
Early brain injury/ischaemia (EBI) is a serious complication early after subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) that contributes to development of delayed cerebral ischaemia (DCI). This study aimed to determine the role of inotropic cardiac support using milrinone (MIL) on restoring acute cerebral hypoperfusion attributable to EBI and improving outcomes after experimental SAH. Forty-three male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either sham surgery (SAH-sham), SAH induced by endovascular perforation plus postconditioning with 2% isoflurane (Control), or SAH plus isoflurane combined with MIL with and without hypoxia-inducible factor inhibitor (HIF-I) pretreatment. Cardiac output (CO) during intravenous MIL infusion (0.25-0.75 μg/kg/min) between 1.5 and 2.5 hours after SAH induction was monitored with Doppler echocardiography. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-continuous arterial spin labelling was used for quantitative cerebral blood flow (CBF) measurements. Neurobehavioral function was assessed daily by neurological score and open field test. DCI was analyzed 3 days later by determining infarction on MRI. Mild reduction of cardiac output (CO) and global cerebral blood flow (CBF) depression were notable early after SAH. MIL increased CO in a dose-dependent manner (P<.001), which was accompanied by improved hypoperfusion, incidence of DCI and functional recovery than Control (P<.05). The neuroprotective effects afforded by MIL or Control were attenuated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) inhibition (P<.05). These results suggest that MIL improves acute hypoperfusion by its inotropic effect, leading to neurobehavioral improvement in mice after severe SAH, in which HIF may be acting as a critical mediator.

Abstract
Background Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is one of the main causes of poor outcomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The early identification of DCI by noninvasive imaging modalities would provide valuable information of therapeutic intervention for improving the patient outcomes. We aimed to describe the clinical features of cerebral blood flow (CBF) data obtained from the single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) during the risk period for DCI after SAH. Material/Methods Clinical data from 94 SAH patients who underwent surgical clipping of anterior circulation aneurysms were reviewed retrospectively. 99mTc-HMPAO SPECT images were visually and semiquantitatively analyzed on days 7 and 14 after SAH. Results In all cases, the areas of hypoperfusion were found in the middle cerebral artery territories. By contrast, the areas of mild hyperperfusion were always detected on the surgical side, the prevalence which increased from days 7 (n=28; 30%) to 14 (n=48; 51%) without neurological defects. Univariate analysis revealed that the hyperperfusion on day 14 had a significant relationship with functional outcome at 3 months (P=0.04). Multivariate analysis including age, clinical SAH grade, DCI, and hyperperfusion on day 14 showed that DCI (P=0.004; odds ratio [OR], 0.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.02–0.48) and hyperperfusion on day 14 (P=0.002; OR, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.40–4.29) were independently associated with functional outcome at 3 months. Conclusions Delayed mild hyperperfusion around the surgical site can predict good prognosis after SAH, although it may hinder the CBF diagnosis of focal ischemia attributable to DCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Acute cerebral hypoperfusion following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is highly related to the pathogenesis of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), but the therapeutic option is poorly available. This study aimed to clarify the effect of milrinone (MIL) on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and related outcomes after experimental SAH. METHODS Twenty-seven male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to either sham surgery (SAH-sham; n=6), SAH induced by endovascular perforation (control; n=10), or SAH followed by cardiac support with intravenous MIL (n=11) performed 1.5-h after SAH induction. CBF, neurobehavioral function, occurrence of DCI were assessed by MR-continuous arterial spin labeling, daily neurological score testing, and diffusion- and T2-weighted MR images on days 1 and 3, respectively. RESULTS Initial global CBF depression was notable in mice of control and MIL groups as compared to the SAH-sham group (P<0.05). MIL raised CBF in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.001), resulted in lower incidence of DCI (P=0.008) and better recovery from neurobehavioral decline than control (P<0.001). The CBF values on day 1 predicted DCI with a cut-off of 42.5ml/100g/min (82% specificity and 83% sensitivity), which was greater in mice treated with MIL than those of control (51.7 versus 37.6ml/100g/min; P<0.001). CONCLUSION MIL improves post-SAH acute hypoperfusion that can lead to the prevention of DCI and functional worsening, acting as a neurocardiac protective agent against EBI.

Abstract
Early brain injury/ischemia is a recent therapeutic target that contributes to triggering delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study aimed to determine the role of dobutamine for inotropic cardiac support in improving cerebral blood flow (CBF) and outcomes after experimental SAH, mediated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF). Thirty-one mice were subjected to SAH by endovascular perforation, and assigned to either 2% isoflurane postconditioning performed between 1 and 2.5h after SAH induction or concomitant intravenous dobutamine infusion (15μg/kg/min) with or without HIF inhibitor 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2) (10mg/kg) administered intraperitoneally. Neurobehavioral function was assessed daily by neurological scores and open field testing. DCI was defined 3days later by detecting a new infarction on MRI. Global CBF depression was notable early after SAH, but dobutamine showed significant improvement in CBF, lower incidence of DCI, and better recovery of neuroscores and open field test variables compared with isoflurane postconditioning (P<0.05). CBF over the entire brain on day 1 predicted DCI with a cut-off of 36.5ml/100g/min (80% specificity and 67% sensitivity), with a better area under the curve (0.83 versus 0.75) than the hemispheric CBF measured on the perforated side. The dobutamine-mediated outcomes were attenuated (P<0.05) by 2ME2 pretreatment. The data suggest that cardiac support with dobutamine improves global CBF depression induced by early brain injury, leading to reduced prevalence of DCI and better functional outcomes after experimental SAH, in which HIF may be acting as a critical mediator.

Abstract
Background Heart failure is known to be a major public health problem. Fluid redistribution contributes to acute heart failure; therefore, knowledge of hemodynamic parameters could be important for optimizing outcomes. The pulse contour cardiac output monitor PiCCO uses the single thermal indicator technique and pulse contour analysis to calculate hemodynamic parameters of preload, afterload, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance and extravascular lung water. Objectives We primarily aimed to describe values and parameters seen in acute heart failure patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and secondly to investigate associations between hemodynamic measurements and survival data. Material and methods In this study 420 consecutive patients admitted to a tertiary medical university hospital ICU between January 2004 and December 2009 were retrospectively investigated. The study sample was divided into two subgroups: patients monitored by PiCCO (n = 47) and those not monitored by thermodilution measurements (n = 373). No predetermined treatment algorithm based on knowledge obtained by the PiCCO monitor was used and measurements were individually interpreted by the treating physician. The PiCCO monitor measurements were carried out according to manufacturer’s directions. Results Patients with PiCCO monitoring were clinically in poorer health with a mean simplified acute physiology score II (SAPS2) of 45 ± 17 vs. 56 ± 20 (p < 0.01). The ICU mortality (22 % vs. 38 %, p = 0.02) and, at least as a tendency, long-term-mortality were increased in patients monitored by PiCCO (RR 1.49, 95 % CI 0.96–2.31, p = 0.08). We provide hemodynamic measurements in acute heart failure patients: cardiac index (2.7 ± 1.2 l/min/m²) was reduced, preload and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI, 11.5 ± 5.1 ml/kg body weight), representing lung edema, were increased. Conclusion We provide real world values for PiCCO parameters in acutely decompensated heart failure. In our study patients who were clinically in poorer health were monitored with PiCCO, resulting in increased mortality in this group. Further prospective studies to investigate the effects of treatment decisions triggered by information obtained by PiCCO monitoring for patients in acute heart failure are needed.

Abstract
Maintenance fluids in critically ill brain-injured patients are part of routine critical care. Both the amounts of fluid volumes infused and the type and tonicity of maintenance fluids are relevant in understanding the impact of fluids on the pathophysiology of secondary brain injuries in these patients. In this narrative review, current evidence on routine fluid management of critically ill brain-injured patients and use of haemodynamic monitoring is summarized. Pertinent guidelines and consensus statements on fluid management for brain-injured patients are highlighted. In general, existing guidelines indicate that fluid management in these neurocritical care patients should be targeted at euvolemia using isotonic fluids. A critical appraisal is made of the available literature regarding the appropriate amount of fluids, haemodynamic monitoring and which types of fluids should be administered or avoided and a practical approach to fluid management is elaborated. Although hypovolemia is bound to contribute to secondary brain injury, some more recent data have emerged indicating the potential risks of fluid overload. However, it is acknowledged that many factors govern the relationship between fluid management and cerebral blood flow and oxygenation and more research seems warranted to optimise fluid management and improve outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS Neurocardiac dysfunction is a life-threatening systemic consequence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) that contributes to triggering delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). This study aimed to determine the impact of dobutamine cardiac support during isoflurane postconditioning on post-SAH DCI. MAIN METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to SAH, SAH plus isoflurane postconditioning, or SAH plus isoflurane postconditioning with dobutamine. Severity of SAH was graded from 1 to 4 (mild, 1-2; severe, 3-4) based on T2*-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Cardiac output (CO) measured by transthoracic pulsed wave Doppler-echocardiography was titrated at a supra-normal level with intravenous dobutamine infusion. Neurological function was examined daily by neurological score and Rotarod tests. DCI was analyzed 3days later by determining new infarction on diffusion-weighted MRI. In a separate experiment, mice were pretreated with hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) inhibitor 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2). KEY FINDINGS Clinically relevant CO depression was notable in severe SAH grade mice, in which dobutamine CO management combined with isoflurane postconditioning showed earlier and improved functional recovery than postconditioning with single isoflurane inhalation. Incidence of infarction and volumes on day 3 reduced significantly in this subgroup. All of the effects during preconditioning were attenuated by 2ME2 pretreatment. SIGNIFICANCE Isoflurane postconditioning under dobutamine cardiac support improves recovery from SAH-induced early brain injury, leading to reduced DCI resultant from severe experimental SAH. These results indicate the importance of neuro-cardiac protection, in which HIF may be acting as a critical mediator, as a promising therapeutic approach to SAH.

Abstract
Background Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a serious condition associated with high mortality rates and long-term disability. We investigated the impact of fluid balance on neurologic outcome after adjustment for possible confounders related to intensive care therapy and extra-cerebral organ failure during the early phase after SAH. Methods In this retrospective study, we analyzed data from all 142 adult patients admitted to our university hospital surgical intensive care unit (ICU) with SAH between March 2004 and November 2010. Results The mean patient age was 54 ± 14 years, 62.7 % were female, and the median Hunt and Hess score was 3. The proportions of patients with poor outcome (Glasgow Outcome Score ≤3) were 58.4, 54.2, and 52.1 % at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively, after the SAH. The ICU and hospital mortality rates were both 12.7 %, and the median lengths of stay in the ICU and the hospital were 16 (IQ 7–25) and 26 (IQ 18–34) days, respectively. In multivariable analysis, older age and greater cumulative fluid balance within the first 7 days in the ICU were independently associated with a greater risk of poor outcome. Conclusion In this cohort of patients, older age and greater cumulative fluid balance were independently associated with a greater risk of poor outcome up to 1 year after the initial insult. Our data suggest that mild hypovolemia may be beneficial in the management of these patients.

Abstract
Neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) is a potentially catastrophic but treatable systemic event after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The development of NPE most frequently occurs immediately after SAH, and the severity is usually self-limiting. Despite extensive research efforts and a breadth of collective clinical experience, accurate diagnosis of NPE can be difficult, and effective hemodynamic treatment options are limited. Recently, a bedside transpulmonary thermodilution device has been introduced that traces physiological patterns consistent with current theories regarding the mechanism (hydrostatic or permeability PE) of NPE. This article provides an overview of the clinical usefulness of the advanced technique for use in the neurointensive care unit for the diagnosis and management of post-SAH NPE.

Abstract
Hemodynamic monitoring is widely used in critical care; however, the impact of such intervention in patients with acute brain injury (ABI) remains unclear. Using PubMed, a systematic review was performed (1966-August 2013), and 118 studies were included. Data were extracted using the PICO approach. The evidence was classified, and recommendations were developed according to the GRADE system. Electrocardiography and invasive monitoring of arterial blood pressure should be the minimal hemodynamic monitoring required in unstable or at-risk patients in the intensive care unit. Advanced hemodynamic monitoring (i.e., assessment of preload, afterload, cardiac output, and global systemic perfusion) could help establish goals that take into account cerebral blood flow and oxygenation, which vary depending on diagnosis and disease stage. Choice of techniques for assessing preload, afterload, cardiac output, and global systemic perfusion should be guided by specific evidence and local expertise. Hemodynamic monitoring is important and has specific indications among ABI patients. Further data are necessary to understand its potential for therapeutic interventions and prognostication.

Abstract
AbstractCerebral vasospasm is a prolonged but reversible narrowing of cerebral arteries beginning days after subarachnoid hemorrhage. Progression to cerebral ischemia is tied mostly to vasospasm severity, and its pathogenesis lies in artery encasement by blood clot, although the complex interactions between hematoma and surrounding structures are not fully understood. The delayed onset of vasospasm provides a potential opportunity for its prevention. It is disappointing that recent randomized, controlled trials did not demonstrate that the endothelin antagonist clazosentan, the cholesterol-lowering agent simvastatin, and the vasodilator magnesium sulfate improve patient outcome. Minimizing ischemia by avoiding inadequate blood volume and pressure, administering the calcium antagonist nimodipine, and intervention with balloon angioplasty, when necessary, constitutes current best management. Over the past two decades, our ability to manage vasospasm has led to a significant decline in patient morbidity and mortality from vasospasm, yet it still remains an important determinant of outcome after aneurysm rupture.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although prophylactic triple-H therapy has been used in a number of institutions globally to prevent delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), limited evidence is available for the effectiveness of triple-H therapy on hemodynamic variables. Recent studies have suggested an association between low global end-diastolic volume index (GEDI), measured using a transpulmonary thermodilution method, and DCI onset. The current study aimed at assessing the effects of prophylactic triple-H therapy on GEDI. METHODS This prospective multicenter study included aneurysmal SAH patients admitted to 9 hospitals in Japan. The decision to administer prophylactic triple-H therapy and the management protocols were left to the physician in charge (physician-directed therapy) of each participating institution. The primary endpoints were the changes in the hemodynamic variables as analyzed using a generalized linear mixed model. RESULTS Of 178 patients, 62 (34.8 %) received prophylactic triple-H therapy and 116 (65.2 %) did not. DCI was observed in 35 patients (19.7 %), with no significant difference between the two groups [15 (24.2 %) vs. 20 (17.2 %), p = 0.27]. Although a greater amount of fluid (p < 0.001) and a higher mean arterial pressure (p = 0.005) were observed in the triple-H group, no significant difference was observed between the groups in GEDI (p = 0.81) or cardiac output (p = 0.62). CONCLUSIONS Physician-directed prophylactic triple-H administration was not associated with improved clinical outcomes or quantitative hemodynamic indicators for intravascular volume. Further, GEDI-directed intervention studies are warranted to better define management algorithms for SAH patients with the aim of preventing DCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between cardiac index (CI) response to a fluid challenge and changes in brain tissue oxygen pressure (PbtO(2)) in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS Prospective observational study was conducted in a neurological intensive care unit of a university hospital. Fifty-seven fluid challenges were administered to ten consecutive comatose SAH patients that underwent multimodality monitoring of CI, intracranial pressure (ICP), and PbtO(2), according to a standardized fluid management protocol. RESULTS The relationship between CI and PbtO(2) was analyzed with logistic regression utilizing generalized estimating equations. Of the 57 fluid boluses analyzed, 27 (47 %) resulted in a ≥ 10 % increase in CI. Median absolute (+5.8 vs. +1.3 mmHg) and percent (20.7 vs. 3.5 %) changes in PbtO(2) were greater in CI responders than in non-responders within 30 min after the end of the fluid bolus infusion. In a multivariable model, a CI response was independently associated with PbtO(2) response (adjusted odds ratio 21.5, 95 % CI 1.4-324, P = 0.03) after adjusting for mean arterial pressure change and end-tidal CO(2). Stroke volume variation showed a good ability to predict CI and PbtO(2) response with areas under the ROC curve of 0.86 and 0.81 with the best cut-off values of 9 % for both responses. CONCLUSION Bolus fluid resuscitation resulting in augmentation of CI can improve cerebral oxygenation after SAH.

Abstract
Neurocritical care depends, in part, on careful patient monitoring but as yet there are little data on what processes are the most important to monitor, how these should be monitored, and whether monitoring these processes is cost-effective and impacts outcome. At the same time, bioinformatics is a rapidly emerging field in critical care but as yet there is little agreement or standardization on what information is important and how it should be displayed and analyzed. The Neurocritical Care Society in collaboration with the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine, the Society for Critical Care Medicine, and the Latin America Brain Injury Consortium organized an international, multidisciplinary consensus conference to begin to address these needs. International experts from neurosurgery, neurocritical care, neurology, critical care, neuroanesthesiology, nursing, pharmacy, and informatics were recruited on the basis of their research, publication record, and expertise. They undertook a systematic literature review to develop recommendations about specific topics on physiologic processes important to the care of patients with disorders that require neurocritical care. This review does not make recommendations about treatment, imaging, and intraoperative monitoring. A multidisciplinary jury, selected for their expertise in clinical investigation and development of practice guidelines, guided this process. The GRADE system was used to develop recommendations based on literature review, discussion, integrating the literature with the participants' collective experience, and critical review by an impartial jury. Emphasis was placed on the principle that recommendations should be based on both data quality and on trade-offs and translation into clinical practice. Strong consideration was given to providing pragmatic guidance and recommendations for bedside neuromonitoring, even in the absence of high quality data.
