Abstract
Despite improvements in survival after illnesses requiring extracorporeal life support, cerebral injury continues to hinder successful outcomes. Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is an innate protective mechanism that maintains constant cerebral blood flow in the face of varying systemic blood pressure. However, it is impaired in certain disease states and, potentially, following initiation of extracorporeal circulatory support. In this review, we first discuss patient-related factors pertaining to venovenous and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and their potential role in CA impairment. Next, we examine factors intrinsic to ECMO that may affect CA, such as cannulation, changes in pulsatility, the inflammatory and adaptive immune response, intracranial hemorrhage, and ischemic stroke, in addition to ECMO management factors, such as oxygenation, ventilation, flow rates, and blood pressure management. We highlight potential mechanisms that lead to disruption of CA in both pediatric and adult populations, the challenges of measuring CA in these patients, and potential associations with neurological outcome. Altogether, we discuss individualized CA monitoring as a potential target for improving neurological outcomes in extracorporeal life support.

Impact of Intraoperative Fluctuations of Cardiac Output on Cerebrovascular Autoregulation: An Integrative Secondary Analysis of Individual-level Data. J Neurosurg Anesthesiol 2023:00008506-990000000-00087. [PMID: 38011867 DOI: 10.1097/ana.0000000000000944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative impairment of cerebral autoregulation (CA) has been associated with perioperative neurocognitive disorders. We investigated whether intraoperative fluctuations in cardiac index are associated with changes in CA. METHODS We conducted an integrative explorative secondary analysis of individual-level data from 2 prospective observational studies including patients scheduled for radical prostatectomy. We assessed cardiac index by pulse contour analysis and CA as the cerebral oxygenation index (COx) based on near-infrared spectroscopy. We analyzed (1) the cross-correlation between cardiac index and COx, (2) the correlation between the time-weighted average (TWA) of the cardiac index below 2.5 L min-1 m-2, and the TWA of COx above 0.3, and (3) the difference in areas between the cardiac index curve and the COx curve among various subgroups. RESULTS The final analysis included 155 patients. The median cardiac index was 3.16 [IQR: 2.65, 3.72] L min-1 m-2. Median COx was 0.23 [IQR: 0.12, 0.34]. (1) The median cross-correlation between cardiac index and COx was 0.230 [IQR: 0.186, 0.287]. (2) The correlation (Spearman ρ) between TWA of cardiac index below 2.5 L min-1 m-2 and TWA of COx above 0.3 was 0.095 (P=0.239). (3) Areas between the cardiac index curve and the COx curve did not differ significantly among subgroups (<65 vs. ≥65 y, P=0.903; 0 vs. ≥1 cardiovascular risk factors, P=0.518; arterial hypertension vs. none, P=0.822; open vs. robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, P=0.699). CONCLUSIONS We found no meaningful association between intraoperative fluctuations in cardiac index and CA. However, it is possible that a potential association was masked by the influence of anesthesia on CA.

Association between rate of change in PaCO 2 and functional outcome for patients with hypercapnia after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: Secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial. Am J Emerg Med 2023; 65:139-145. [PMID: 36634567 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajem.2023.01.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 12/10/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Normocapnia is suggested for post resuscitation care. For patients with hypercapnia after cardiac arrest, the relationship between rate of change in partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and functional outcome was unknown. METHODS This was the secondary analysis of Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium (ROC) amiodarone, lidocaine, and placebo (ALPS) trial. Patients with at least 2 PaCO2 recorded and the first indicating hypercapnia (PaCO2 > 45 mmHg) after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were included. The rate of change in PaCO2 was calculated as the ratio of the difference between the second and first PaCO2 to the time interval. The primary outcome was modified Rankin Score (mRS), dichotomized to good (mRS 0-3) and poor (mRS 4-6) outcomes at hospital discharge. The independent relationship between rate of change in PaCO2 and outcome was investigated with multivariable logistic regression model. RESULTS A total of 746 patients with hypercapnia were included for analysis, of which 264 (35.4%) patients had good functional outcome. The median rate of change in PaCO2 was 4.7 (interquartile range [IQR] 1.7-12) mmHg per hour. After adjusting for confounders, the rate of change in PaCO2 (odds ratio [OR] 0.994, confidence interval [CI] 0.985-1.004, p = 0.230) was not associated the functional outcome. However, rate of change in PaCO2 (OR 1.010, CI 1.001-1.019, p = 0.029) was independently associated with hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS For OHCA patients with hypercapnia on admission, the rate of change in PaCO2 was not independently associated with functional outcome; however, there was a significant trend that higher decreased rate was associated with increased hospital mortality.

The role of acute hypercapnia on mortality and short-term physiology in patients mechanically ventilated for ARDS: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Intensive Care Med 2022; 48:517-534. [PMID: 35294565 PMCID: PMC8924945 DOI: 10.1007/s00134-022-06640-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Hypercapnia is frequent during mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), but its effects on morbidity and mortality are still controversial. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore clinical consequences of acute hypercapnia in adult patients ventilated for ARDS. Methods We searched Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library via the OVID platform for studies published from 1946 to 2021. “Permissive hypercapnia” defined hypercapnia in studies where the group with hypercapnia was ventilated with a protective ventilation (PV) strategy (lower VT targeting 6 ml/kg predicted body weight) while the group without hypercapnia was managed with a non-protective ventilation (NPV); “imposed hypercapnia” defined hypercapnia in studies where hypercapnic and non-hypercapnic patients were managed with a similar ventilation strategy. Results Twenty-nine studies (10,101 patients) were included. Permissive hypercapnia, imposed hypercapnia under PV, and imposed hypercapnia under NPV were reported in 8, 21 and 1 study, respectively. Studies testing permissive hypercapnia reported lower mortality in hypercapnic patients receiving PV as compared to non-hypercapnic patients receiving NPV: OR = 0.26, 95% CI [0.07–0.89]. By contrast, studies reporting imposed hypercapnia under PV reported increased mortality in hypercapnic patients receiving PV as compared to non-hypercapnic patients also receiving PV: OR = 1.54, 95% CI [1.15–2.07]. There was a significant interaction between the mechanism of hypercapnia and the effect on mortality. Conclusions Clinical effects of hypercapnia are conflicting depending on its mechanism. Permissive hypercapnia was associated with improved mortality contrary to imposed hypercapnia under PV, suggesting a major role of PV strategy on the outcome.
