Clinical features and outcomes of patients with pancreatic cancer requiring unplanned medical ICU admission: A retrospective multicenter study. Dig Liver Dis 2024; 56:514-521. [PMID: 37718226 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2023.08.049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We sought to describe the reasons for intensive care unit (ICU) admission and outcomes of patients with pancreatic cancer requiring unplanned medical ICU admission. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort study in five ICUs from 2009 to 2020. All patients with pancreatic cancer admitted to the ICU were included. Patients having undergone recent surgery were excluded (< 4 weeks). RESULTS 269 patients were included. Tumors were mainly adenocarcinoma (90%). Main reason for admission was sepsis/septic shock (32%) with a biliary tract infection in 44 (51%) patients. Second reason for admission was gastrointestinal bleeding (28%). ICU and 3-month mortality rates were 26% and 59% respectively. Performance status 3-4 (odds ratio OR 3.58), disease status (responsive/stable -ref-, newly diagnosed OR 3.25, progressive OR 5.99), mechanical ventilation (OR 8.03), vasopressors (OR 4.19), SAPS 2 (OR 1.69) and pH (OR 0.02) were independently associated with ICU mortality. Performance status 3-4 (Hazard ratio HR 1.96) and disease status (responsive/stable -ref-, newly diagnosed HR 2.67, progressive HR 4.14) were associated with 3-month mortality. CONCLUSION Reasons for ICU admissions of pancreatic cancer patients differ from those observed in other solid cancer. Short- and medium-term mortality are strongly influenced by performance status and disease status at ICU admission.

Abstract
Invasive mechanical ventilation in onco-hematology patients has become relatively routine, and is now part and parcel of their care pathway. Nevertheless, specific complications and subsequent therapeutic possibilities require discussion. To a greater extent than with regard to other patient populations, cooperation between specialist and ICU physician is mandatory, the objective being to more comprehensively assess a therapeutic project before or during the period of invasive mechanical ventilation. After an overview of recent results concerning ventilated patients in intensive care, this review aims to describe the specific complications and factors associated with mortality in this population.

Abstract
PURPOSE This article aimed to investigate 1) whether electronic cigarette (EC) users are more likely to experience asthma attacks or emergency room (ER) visits due to asthma than non-users and 2) how age and smoking behaviors moderate the effect size of the association. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used National Health Interview Survey data from 2016-2019. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the association between current EC use and having an asthma attack and ER visitation due to asthma. Interaction terms were included to explore the moderation effects of age and cigarette smoking status. Subgroup analysis was conducted according to age group. RESULTS Of the 218911 participants, 2.0% of them experienced an asthma attack, and 0.5% visited the ER due to asthma. Current EC use was associated with higher odds of having an asthma attack. In interaction analysis, age and smoking status were identified as a moderator in the relationship between EC use and asthma attacks. Participants in their 20s or 30s showed the highest interaction effect. CONCLUSION Our analysis indicates the potential impact of EC use on public health and the moderating effects of smoking behavior.

Abstract
Introdução: O paciente com câncer apresenta alta prevalência de insuficiência respiratória aguda (IRpA) relacionada a complicações do tratamento oncológico. O suporte ventilatório mecânico e a principal terapêutica para resolução dessas complicações. No entanto, tal recurso pode aumentar a mortalidade. Objetivo: Verificar a taxa de mortalidade e os fatores intervenientes de pacientes oncológicos com IRpA expostos a ventilação mecânica invasiva (VMI) e não invasiva (VNI). Método: Estudo de coorte retrospectiva. Foram incluídos 121 pacientes oncológicos em ventilação mecânica separados em grupos: neoplasias hematológicas em VMI (HVMI, n=17), neoplasias hematológicas em VNI (HVNI, n=36), neoplasias solidas em VMI (SVMI, n=39) e neoplasias solidas em VNI (SVNI, n=29). Os desfechos avaliados foram: taxa de mortalidade, tempo de internamento, tempo de exposição a ventilação mecânica, taxa de falha da VNI e fatores relacionados a falha da VNI. Resultados: A taxa de mortalidade geral foi de 47,9%, distribuídos em HVMI (82,4%), HVNI (27,8%), SVMI (69,2%) e SVNI (24,1%). O escore APACHE III elevado foi associado a uma maior taxa de mortalidade. A taxa de mortalidade associada a falha da VNI foi de 71,4% HVNI e 77,8% SVNI. As variáveis associadas a maior taxa de falha da VNI foram o APACHE III>7 e o tempo de exposição a VNI>72 horas. Conclusão: A taxa de mortalidade de pacientes com neoplasia hematológica e solida em IRpA mostrou-se menor em pacientes expostos a VNI.

BMC Pulm Med 2022; 22:245. [PMID: 35751074 PMCID: PMC9229461 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-022-02042-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The survival of patients with lung cancer undergoing critical care has improved. An increasing number of patients with lung cancer have signed a predefined do-not-intubate (DNI) order before admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). These patients may still be transferred to the ICU and even receive non-invasive ventilation (NIV) support. However, there is still a lack of prognostic predictions in this cohort. Whether patients will benefit from ICU care remains unclear. Methods We retrospectively collected data from patients with advanced lung cancer who had signed a DNI order before ICU admission in a tertiary medical center between 2014 and 2016. The clinical characteristics and survival outcomes were discussed. Results A total of 140 patients (median age, 73 years; 62.1% were male) were included, had been diagnosed with stage III or IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (AJCC 7th edition), and signed a DNI. Most patients received NIV during ICU stay. The median APACHE II score was 14 (standard error [SE], ± 0.66) and the mean PaO2/FiO2 ratio (P/F ratio) was 174.2 (SD, ± 104 mmHg). The APACHE II score was significantly lower in 28-day survivors (survivor: 12 (± 0.98) vs. non-survivor: 15 (± 0.83); p = 0.019). The P/F ratio of the survivors was higher than that of non-survivors (survivors: 209.6 ± 111.4 vs. non-survivors: 157.9 ± 96.7; p = 0.006). Patients with a P/F ratio ≥ 150 had better 28-day survival (p = 0.005). By combining P/F ratio ≥ 150 and APACHE II score < 16, those with high P/F ratios and low APACHE II scores during ICU admission had a notable 28-day survival compared with the rest (p < 0.001). These prognostic factors could also be applied to 90-day survival (p = 0.003). The prediction model was significant for those with driver mutations in 90-day survival (p = 0.021). Conclusions P/F ratio ≥ 150 and APACHE II score < 16 were significant prognostic factors for critically ill patients with lung cancer and DNI. This prediction could be applied to 90-day survival in patients with driver mutations. These findings are informative for clinical practice and decision-making.

Long-Term Outcome of Critically Ill Advanced Cancer Patients Managed in an Intermediate Care Unit. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11123472. [PMID: 35743544 PMCID: PMC9225024 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11123472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: To analyze the long-term outcomes for advanced cancer patients admitted to an intermediate care unit (ImCU), an analysis of a do not resuscitate orders (DNR) subgroup was made. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted from 2006 to January 2019 in a single academic medical center of cancer patients with stage IV disease who suffered acute severe complications. The Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3 (SAPS 3) was used as a prognostic and severity score. In-hospital mortality, 30-day mortality and survival after hospital discharge were calculated. Results: Two hundred and forty patients with stage IV cancer who attended at an ImCU were included. In total, 47.5% of the cohort had DNR orders. The two most frequent reasons for admission were sepsis (32.1%) and acute respiratory failure (excluding sepsis) (38.7%). Mortality in the ImCU was 10.8%. The mean predicted in-hospital mortality according to SAPS 3 was 51.9%. The observed in-hospital mortality was 37.5% (standard mortality ratio of 0.72). Patients discharged from hospital had a median survival of 81 (30.75−391.25) days (patients with DNR orders 46 days (19.5−92.25), patients without DNR orders 162 days (39.5−632)). The observed mortality was higher in patients with DNR orders: 52.6% vs. 23.8%, p 0 < 0.001. By multivariate logistic regression, a worse ECOG performance status (3−4 vs. 0−2), a higher SAPS 3 Score and DNR orders were associated with a higher in-hospital mortality. By multivariate analysis, non-invasive mechanical ventilation, higher bilirubin levels and DNR orders were significantly associated with 30-day mortality. Conclusion: For patients with advanced cancer disease, even those with DNR orders, who suffer from acute complications or require continuous monitoring, an ImCU-centered multidisciplinary management shows encouraging results in terms of observed-to-expected mortality ratios.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of our study is to evaluate the characteristics of patients whose medical anti-cancer treatment has been initiated at the ICU and to release prognostic factors for hospital mortality in these patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed retrospectively all the records of cancer patients admitted between 01/01/2007 and 31/12/2017 in our ICU and for whom a new anti-cancer medical treatment was initiated during their ICU stay. RESULTS Our study includes 147 patients, 78 men (53%) and 69 women (47%), with a median age of 58 years. Eighty patients (54%) had a solid tumor and 67 (46%) a hematological malignancy. ICU mortality was 23% and hospital mortality 32%. The poor prognostic factors for hospital mortality were: higher SOFA, higher Charslon comorbidity index and the presence of a therapeutic limitation (introduced at the time of admission or within 24 hours of admission to the ICU). One-year survival for patients who survived hospital stay was 37% (17% for those with a solid tumor and 61% for the ones with a hematological malignancy). CONCLUSION Initiation of an anti-cancer medical treatment is feasible and can lead to good 1 year survival rate, especially for those with a hematological tumor.

Abstract
Objective Bone and bone marrow are the third most frequent sites of metastases from many cancers and are associated with low survival and high morbidity rates. Currently, there are no effective bedside tools to predict the morbidity risk of these patients in general intensive care units (ICUs). The main objective of this study was to establish and validate a nomogram to predict the morbidity risk of patients with bone and bone marrow metastases. Methods Data on patients with bone and bone marrow metastases were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III) database. The patients were divided into training and validation cohorts. The data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox regression methods. Factors significantly and independently prognostic of survival were used to construct a nomogram predicting 30-day morbidity. The nomogram was validated by various methods, including Harrell’s concordance index (C-index), area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curve, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), net reclassification index (NRI), and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results The study included 610 patients in the training cohort and 262 in the validation cohort. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that temperature, SpO2, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, Oxford Acute Severity of Illness Score (OASIS), comorbidities with coagulopathy, white blood cell count, heart rate, and respiratory rate were independent predictors of patient survival. The resulting nomogram had good discriminative ability, as shown by high AUCs, and was well calibrated, as demonstrated by calibration curves. Improvements in NRI and IDI values suggested that the nomogram was superior to the SOFA scoring system. DCA curves revealed that the nomogram showed good value in clinical applications. Conclusion This prognostic nomogram, based on demographic and laboratory parameters, was predictive of the 30-day morbidity rate in patients with secondary malignant neoplasms of the bone and bone marrow, suggesting its applicability in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Major therapeutic advances including immunotherapy and targeted therapies have been changing the face of oncology and resulted in improved prognosis as well as in new toxic complications. The aim of this study is to appraise the trends in intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and outcomes of critically ill patients with solid malignancies. We performed a retrospective single-centre study over a 12-year period (2007–2018) including adult patients with solid malignancies requiring unplanned ICU admission. Admission patterns were classified as: (i) specific if directly related to the underlying cancer; (ii) non-specific; (iii) drug-related or procedural adverse events. Results 1525 patients were analysed. Lung and gastro-intestinal tract accounted for the two main tumour sites. The proportion of patients with metastatic diseases increased from 48.6% in 2007–2008 to 60.2% in 2017–2018 (p = 0.004). Critical conditions were increasingly related to drug- or procedure-related adverse events, from 8.8% of ICU admissions in 2007–2008 to 16% in 2017–2018 (p = 0.01). The crude severity of critical illness at ICU admission did not change over time. The ICU survival rate was 77.4%, without any significant changes over the study period. Among the 1279 patients with complete follow-up, the 1-year survival rate was 33.2%. Independent determinants of ICU mortality were metastatic disease, cancer in progression under treatment, admission for specific complications and the extent of organ failures (invasive and non-invasive ventilation, inotropes/vasopressors, renal replacement therapy and SOFA score). One-year mortality in ICU-survivors was independently associated with lung cancer, metastatic disease, cancer in progression under treatment, admission for specific complications and decision to forgo life-sustaining therapies. Conclusion Advances in the management and the prognosis of solid malignancies substantially modified the ICU admission patterns of cancer patients. Despite underlying advanced and often metastatic malignancies, encouraging short-term and long-term outcomes should help changing the dismal perception of critically ill cancer patients.

Abstract
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) in immunocompromised patients remains challenging to treat. A large number of case require admission to intensive care unit (ICU) where mortality remains high. Oxygenation without intubation is important in this setting. This review summarizes recent studies assessing oxygenation devices for immunocompromised patients. Previous studies showed that non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been associated with lower intubation and mortality rates. Indeed, in recent years, the outcomes of immunocompromised patients admitted to the ICU have improved. In the most recent randomized controlled trials, including immunocompromised patients admitted to the ICU with ARF, neither NIV nor high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) could reduce the mortality rate. In this setting, other strategies need to be tested to decrease the mortality rate. Early admission strategy and avoiding late failure of oxygenation strategy have been assessed in retrospective studies. However, objective criteria are still lacking to clearly discriminate time to admission or time to intubation. Also, diagnosis strategy may have an impact on intubation or mortality rates. On the other hand, lack of diagnosis has been associated with a higher mortality rate. In conclusion, improving outcomes in immunocompromised patients with ARF may include strategies other than the oxygenation strategy alone. This review discusses other unresolved questions to decrease mortality after ICU admission in such patients.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of patients with newly diagnosed advanced lung cancer who initially presented with respiratory failure. Methods This was a retrospective study which analyzed patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) with newly diagnosed advanced lung cancer who were placed on mechanical ventilation (MV). We defined newly diagnosed lung cancer as pathological or molecular results for treatment decisions not yet determined when the patient was admitted to ICU. Results During the 14‐year inclusion period, 845 lung cancer patients requiring MV were screened. A total of 56 newly diagnosed extensive lung cancer patients were analyzed. Cancer‐related to central airway obstruction (n = 29, 51.8%) was the leading cause of respiratory failure. The significant etiologies of delay in the diagnosis of lung cancer were diagnostic error, mistaking cancer for tuberculosis, and missed hilar lesions. The six‐month survival rate was only 7.1% (n = 4). The sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was significantly associated with mortality (HR = 1.142, 95% CI = 1.012–1.288, P = 0.031). The six‐month survival rate in patients receiving suitable targeted therapy and accepting chemotherapy and best supportive care was 40% (2/5), 0% (0/7), and 4.5% (2/44), respectively. Conclusions Patients with newly diagnosed advanced lung cancer with acute life‐threatening respiratory failure have poor outcomes. Cancer‐related to central airway obstruction is a leading cause of respiratory failure. Diagnostic errors such as tuberculosis and missed hilar lesions are the two main etiologies of a delay in diagnosis. The SOFA score is correlated with mortality. Targeted therapy can raise the six‐month survival rates in patients with oncogenic mutation adenocarcinoma, who survive after presentation in a critical condition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When patients with lung cancer present to the emergency department with organ failure the question of admission to intensive care has to be considered. Our aim is to describe the process leading to the proposed management. METHODS Retrospectively, all patients admitted to the emergency room between December 2010 and January 2015 with a diagnosis of ICD-10 C34.9 (lung cancer) were reviewed. Those with at least one organ failure were included. RESULTS The records of 561 patients were reviewed, 79 (14%) had at least one organ failure. The majority of these patients received maximal medical care (59%), 25% exclusive palliative care, and 15% intensive care. Performance status, metastatic status and efficacy of anti-tumor treatment were recorded in the emergency medical record in 20%, 66% and 74% of cases, respectively. An opinion was obtained from the oncologist in 44% of cases and from the intensivist in 41% of cases. No external advice was provided in 27% of cases. CONCLUSION In the majority of cases, the decision on the intensity of care to be provided to patients with lung cancer and organ failure was made in a collective manner.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intensive care triage practices and end-user interpretation of triage guidelines have rarely been assessed. We evaluated agreement between providers on the prioritization of patients for ICU admission using different triage guidelines. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multi-centered randomized study on providers from 18 different countries was conducted using clinical vignettes of oncological patients. The level of agreement between providers was measured using two different guidelines, with one being cancer specific. RESULTS Amongst 257 providers, 52.5% randomly received the Society of Critical Care Prioritization Model, and 47.5% received a cancer specific flowchart as a guide. In the Prioritization Model arm the average entropy was 1.193, versus 1.153 in the flowchart arm (P = .095) indicating similarly poor agreement. The Fleiss' kappa coefficients were estimated to be 0.2136 for the SCCMPM arm and 0.2457 for the flowchart arm, also similarly implying poor agreement. CONCLUSIONS The low agreement amongst practitioners on the prioritization of cancer patient cases for ICU admission existed using both general triage guidelines and guidelines tailored only to cancer patients. The lack of consensus on intensive care unit triage practices in the oncological population exposes a potential barrier to appropriate resource allocation that needs to be addressed.

Abstract
PURPOSE The number of averted deaths due to therapeutic advances in oncology and hematology is substantial and increasing. Survival of critically ill cancer patients has also improved during the last 2 decades. However, these data stem predominantly from unadjusted analyses. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of ICU admission year on short-term survival of critically ill cancer patients, with special attention on those with neutropenia. METHODS Systematic review and meta-analysis of individual data according to the guidelines of meta-analysis of observational studies in epidemiology. DATASOURCE Pubmed and Cochrane databases. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Adult studies published in English between May 2005 and May 2015. RESULTS Overall, 7354 patients were included among whom 1666 presented with neutropenia at ICU admission. Median ICU admission year was 2007 (IQR 2004-2010; range 1994-2012) and median number of admissions per year was 693 (IQR 450-1007). Overall mortality was 47.7%. ICU admission year was associated with a progressive decrease in hospital mortality (OR per year 0.94; 95% CI 0.93-0.95). After adjustment for confounders, year of ICU admission was independently associated with hospital mortality (OR for hospital mortality per year: 0.96; 95% CI 0.95-0.97). The association was also seen in patients with neutropenia but not in allogeneic stem cell transplant recipients. CONCLUSION After adjustment for patient characteristics, severity of illness and clustering, hospital mortality decreased steadily over time in critically ill oncology and hematology patients except for allogeneic stem cell transplant recipients.

Abstract
Few data are available regarding treatment outcomes in lung cancer patients with metastasis who initiated mechanical ventilation in the emergency department (ED). We aimed to evaluate 28-day mortality in lung cancer patients with metastasis who initiated mechanical ventilation in the ED. Patients with solid malignancy who initiated mechanical ventilation in the ED of a tertiary hospital were retrospectively identified and stratified into four groups according to the presence of lung cancer and metastasis. Among 212 included patients, the mortality rates by the 28th hospital day were as follows: 44.2% (19/43) in non-lung cancer patients without metastasis, 63.2% (43/68) in non-lung cancer patients with metastasis, 52.4% (11/21) in lung cancer patients without metastasis, and 66.2% (53/80) in lung cancer patients with metastasis. In multivariable analysis, lung cancer patients with metastasis had significantly higher odds ratio for 28-day mortality than non-lung cancer patients without metastasis (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 7.17, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.14-24.01). Sepsis-related respiratory failure (adjusted OR = 2.60, 95% CI = 1.16-5.84) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (adjusted OR = 13.34, 95% CI = 4.45-39.95) over respiratory failure without sepsis and acute organ dysfunction process measured by sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score (adjusted OR = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.05-12.6) were independently associated with an increase in mortality rate. In conclusion, the treatment outcomes in lung cancer patients with metastasis who initiated mechanical ventilation in the ED were poor. Aggressive resuscitation versus end-of-life care in advance of an unexpected medical crisis should be considered in lung cancer patients with metastasis via a multidisciplinary approach with a consideration of underlying comorbid illnesses in the acute organ dysfunction processes.

Abstract
Le cancer bronchopulmonaire (CBP) est la première cause de mortalité par cancer en France et dans le monde, mais son pronostic tend à s’améliorer depuis une dizaine d’années grâce à de nouvelles classes de traitements : l’immunothérapie et les thérapies ciblées. L’immunothérapie stimule le système immunitaire afin d’engendrer une réponse antitumorale. Ces molécules peuvent être prescrites chez la plupart des patients avec un CBP non à petites cellules (CBNPC) métastatique et entraînent parfois des réponses tumorales majeures et durables pouvant dépasser les 24 mois. Toutefois, cette efficacité concerne entre 20 et 50 % des patients selon la ligne de traitement. Les thérapies ciblées sont des traitements oraux visant les cellules tumorales porteuses d’anomalies génétiques spécifiques (addictions oncogéniques) et intéressent moins de 15 % des patients avec CBNPC, majoritairement les non-fumeurs. Les deux principales sont les mutations du gène de l’epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) et les réarrangements d’anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Ces anomalies peuvent être diagnostiquées en quelques jours, parfois sur un prélèvement sanguin (biopsie liquide pour détecter les mutations EGFR). Les thérapies ciblées améliorent la survie globale des patients dont la médiane dépasse les 30 mois. Toutefois, ces deux classes de traitement entraînent des toxicités spécifiques, fréquentes mais souvent bénignes. Les hospitalisations en réanimation des patients porteurs de CBNPC sont croissantes. L’amélioration du pronostic de ces patients est à prendre en compte lors de la discussion d’admission en réanimation sans conduire à des prises en charge déraisonnables.

Effect of intensivist involvement on clinical outcomes in patients with advanced lung cancer admitted to the intensive care unit. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0210951. [PMID: 30759088 PMCID: PMC6373899 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0210951] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2018] [Accepted: 01/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Intensive care unit (ICU)-related mortality for lung cancer is ranked highest among the solid tumors and little information exists on the role of intensivists on clinical outcomes. This study aimed to elucidate the intensivist’s contribution toward clinical outcomes. Materials and methods Data of advanced lung cancer patients, including stage IIIB or IV non-small cell lung cancer and extensive-stage small cell lung cancer, admitted to the ICU from 2005 to 2016 were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine variables associated with ICU and in-hospital mortality. Autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) for time-series was used to assess the intensivist’s impact. Results Of 264 patients, 85 (32.2%) were admitted to the ICU before and 179 (67.8%) after organized intensive care introduction in 2011. Before and after 2011, the changes observed were as follows: ICU mortality rate, 43.5% to 40.2%, respectively (p = 0.610); hospital mortality rate, 82.4% to 65. 9% (p = 0.006). The duration of ICU and hospital stay decreased after 2011 (14.5±16.5 vs. 8.3 ± 8.6, p < 0.001; 36.6 ± 37.2 vs. 22.0 ± 19.6, p < 0.001). On multivariate analysis, admission after 2011 was independently associated with decreased hospital mortality (Odds ratio 0.42, 95% confidence interval 0.21–0.77, p = 0.006). In ARIMA models, intensivist involvement was associated with significantly reduced hospital mortality. (Estimate -17.95, standard error 5.31, p = 0.001) Conclusion In patients with advanced lung cancer, organized intensive care could contribute to improved clinical outcomes.

Influence of neutropenia on mortality of critically ill cancer patients: results of a meta-analysis on individual data. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2018; 22:326. [PMID: 30514339 PMCID: PMC6280476 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-018-2076-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2017] [Accepted: 05/21/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Background The study objective was to assess the influence of neutropenia on outcome of critically ill cancer patients by meta-analysis of individual data. Secondary objectives were to assess the influence of neutropenia on outcome of critically ill patients in prespecified subgroups (according to underlying tumor, period of admission, need for mechanical ventilation and use of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)). Methods Data sources were PubMed and the Cochrane database. Study selection included articles focusing on critically ill cancer patients published in English and studies in humans from May 2005 to May 2015. For study selection, the study eligibility was assessed by two investigators. Individual data from selected studies were obtained from corresponding authors. Results Overall, 114 studies were identified and authors of 30 studies (26.3% of selected studies) agreed to participate in this study. Of the 7515 included patients, three were excluded due to a missing major variable (neutropenia or mortality) leading to analysis of 7512 patients, including 1702 neutropenic patients (22.6%). After adjustment for confounders, and taking study effect into account, neutropenia was independently associated with mortality (OR 1.41; 95% CI 1.23–1.62; P = 0.03). When analyzed separately, neither admission period, underlying malignancy nor need for mechanical ventilation modified the prognostic influence of neutropenia on outcome. However, among patients for whom data on G-CSF administration were available (n = 1949; 25.9%), neutropenia was no longer associated with outcome in patients receiving G-CSF (OR 1.03; 95% CI 0.70–1.51; P = 0.90). Conclusion Among 7512 critically ill cancer patients included in this systematic review, neutropenia was independently associated with poor outcome despite a meaningful survival. Neutropenia was no longer significantly associated with outcome in patients treated by G-CSF, which may suggest a beneficial effect of G-CSF in neutropenic critically ill cancer patients. Systematic review registration PROSPERO CRD42015026347. Date of registration: Sept 18 2015 Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (10.1186/s13054-018-2076-z) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Abstract
Background Although patients with advanced or metastatic lung cancer have poor prognosis, admission to the ICU for management of life-threatening complications has increased over the years. Patients with newly diagnosed lung cancer appear as good candidates for ICU admission, but more robust information to assist decisions is lacking. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prognosis of newly diagnosed unresectable lung cancer patients. Methods A retrospective multicentric study analyzed the outcome of patients admitted to the ICU with a newly diagnosed lung cancer (diagnosis within the month) between 2010 and 2013. Results Out of the 100 patients, 30 had small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and 70 had non-small cell lung cancer. (Thirty patients had already been treated with oncologic treatments.) Mechanical ventilation (MV) was performed for 81 patients. Seventeen patients received emergency chemotherapy during their ICU stay. ICU, hospital, 3- and 6-month mortality were, respectively, 47, 60, 67 and 71%. Hospital mortality was 60% when invasive MV was used alone, 71% when MV and vasopressors were needed and 83% when MV, vasopressors and hemodialysis were required. In multivariate analysis, hospital mortality was associated with metastatic disease (OR 4.22 [1.4–12.4]; p = 0.008), need for invasive MV (OR 4.20 [1.11–16.2]; p = 0.030), while chemotherapy in ICU was associated with survival (OR 0.23, [0.07–0.81]; p = 0.020). Conclusion This study shows that ICU management can be appropriate for selected newly diagnosed patients with advanced lung cancer, and chemotherapy might improve outcome for patients with SCLC admitted for cancer-related complications. Nevertheless, tumors’ characteristics, numbers and types of organ dysfunction should be taken into account in the decisional process before admitting these patients in ICU.

Abstract
Background This study aims to investigate lung cancer patients' risk factors for: intensive care unit (ICU) admission, infectious complications and organ dysfunction in the ICU, and prognosis after ICU admission. Methods The records of all patients with lung-cancer catastrophic-illness cards admitted to the ICU between 2003 and 2012 were reviewed. The primary endpoint was 1-year mortality. Results We finally analyzed the records of index-date-, age-, and sex-matched ICU-admitted (ICU+) lung cancer patients (n=17,687) and ICU-non-admitted (ICU-) lung cancer patients (n=35,374). The overall 1-year mortality rate was significantly (P<0.0001) higher for ICU+ patients (49.91%) than for ICU- patients (44.86%). Most ICU+ patients (56.16%) had infectious complications and organ dysfunction (52.33%), and overall, 6,893 (38.97%) had sepsis. Independent mortality risk factors were age (≥75 years) [adjusted hazard ratio (AHR), 1.22; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.16-1.29], male sex: (AHR, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.13-1.23), recent radiotherapy (AHR, 1.09; 95% CI, 1.04-1.15), infectious complications (AHR: 1.23; 95% CI: 1.17-1.29), organ dysfunction (AHR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.50-1.65), and hospital level (regional hospital: AHR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.06-1.16; local hospital: AHR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.18-1.37). Conclusions ICU admission for lung cancer patients is associated with higher mortality. Several risk factors of mortality for ICU+ patients should help physicians provide patients personalized and better-informed lung cancer therapy decisions.

Abstract
Introduction Few studies have reported outcomes of lung cancer patients with acute respiratory failure (RF) using noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic factors in these patients. Materials and methods This retrospective observational study included all hospitalized lung cancer patients who received NIPPV for acute RF. It was conducted at a tertiary medical center in Taiwan from 2005 to 2010. The primary outcome was all cause mortality at 28 days after the initiation of NIPPV. Secondary outcomes included all-cause in-hospital mortality, weaning from NIPPV, intubation rate, tracheostomy rate, duration of NIPPV, hospital stay and intensive care unit stay. Results The all-cause mortality rate at day 28 of the enrolled 58 patients was 39.66%. The 90-day and 1-year mortality rates were 63.79% and 86.21%, respectively. NIPPV as the first line therapy for RF had higher 28-day mortality rate than it used for post-extubation RF (57.6% versus 16.0%, p<0.05). Independent predictors of mortality at 28 days were progressive disease or newly diagnosed lung cancer (OR 14.02 95% CI 1.03–191.59, p = 0.048), combined with other organ failure (OR 18.07 95% CI 1.87–172.7, p = 0.012), and NIPPV as the first line therapy for RF (OR 35.37 95% CI 3.30–378.68, p = 0.003). Conclusion Lung cancer patients using NIPPV with progressive or newly diagnosed cancer disease, combined with other organ failure, or NIPPV as the first line therapy for respiratory failure have a poor outcome.

Abstract
Splenic rupture is an infrequent and underdiagnosed side effect of granylocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). We report the case of a 54-year-old woman with brain and bone metastasis in a lung adenocarcinoma who was admitted for faintness 28 days after a G-CSF injection. Abdominal CT scan confirmed the diagnosis of splenic rupture. A conservative treatment was chosen using a peritoneal cleansing during laparoscopic surgery. Clinicians should be aware of this rare toxicity as it could be severe, but easily reversible using appropriate surgical treatment. Even if prognosis remains poor for patients with lung cancer, invasive procedures could be considered in this rapidly evolving setting, especially in case of reversible adverse event.

Abstract
Patients with cancer continue to have unmet palliative care needs. Concurrent palliative care is tailored to the needs of patients as well as their families to relieve suffering. Specialty palliative care referral is associated with improved symptom management, improved end-of-life quality, and higher family-rated satisfaction. Optimal timing for palliative care referral has not been determined. Barriers to palliative care referral include workforce limitations, provider attitudes and perceptions, and potential ethnic and racial disparities in access to palliative care. Future work should focus on novel, patient-centered approaches to identify and address unmet palliative care needs for patients living with cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe trends in outcomes of cancer patients with an unplanned admission to the ICU between 1997 and 2013 and to identify risk factors for mortality of those admitted between 2009 and 2013. DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre Case Mix Programme Database including data of ICUs in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. PATIENTS Patients (99,590) with a solid tumor and 13,538 patients with a hematological malignancy with an unplanned ICU admission between 1997 and 2013; 39,734 solid tumor patients and 6,652 patients with a hematological malignancy who were admitted between 2009 and 2013 were analyzed in depth. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In solid tumor patients admitted between 2009 and 2013, hospital mortality was 26.4%. Independent risk factors for hospital mortality were metastatic disease (odds ratio, 1.99), cardiopulmonary resuscitation before ICU admission (odds ratio, 1.63), Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre Physiology score (odds ratio, 1.14), admission for gastrointestinal (odds ratio, 1.12), respiratory (odds ratio, 1.48) or neurological (odds ratio, 1.65) reasons, and previous ICU admission (odds ratio, 1.18). In patients with a hematological malignancy admitted between 2009 and 2013, hospital mortality was 53.6%. Independent risk factors for hospital mortality were age (odds ratio, 1.02), cardiopulmonary resuscitation before ICU admission (odds ratio, 1.90), Intensive Care National Audit & Research Centre Physiology Score (odds ratio, 1.12), admission for hematological (odds ratio, 1.48) or respiratory (odds ratio, 1.56) reasons, bone marrow transplant (odds ratio, 1.53), previous ICU admission (odds ratio, 1.43), and mechanical ventilation within 24 hours of admission (odds ratio, 1.33). Trend analysis showed a significant decrease in ICU and hospital mortality and length of stay between 1997 and 2013 despite little change in severity of illness during this time. CONCLUSIONS Between 1997 and 2013, the outcome of cancer patients with an unplanned admission to ICU improved significantly. Among those admitted between 2009 and 2013, independent risk factors for hospital mortality were age, severity of illness, previous cardiopulmonary resuscitation, previous ICU admission, metastatic disease, and admission for respiratory reasons.

Abstract
Objectives: Therapy outcomes for newly diagnosed, critically ill lung cancer patients have seldom been evaluated. This study evaluated therapy outcomes for treatment-naïve lung cancer patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Materials and Methods: Patients were excluded if they had previously received lung cancer treatment, such as systemic chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiotherapy, or surgical lung resection before ICU admission. The therapeutic strategies for the treatment-naïve patients were determined while they were in the ICU. The patients' demographic data, clinical outcomes, and treatment-related toxicities were analyzed. Results: Newly diagnosed lung cancer patients (n = 72) who did not receive any anticancer treatment before ICU admission were included. Most patients had locally advanced disease, and 61 (84.7%) required intensive care due to cancer-related events. In the ICU, 24 (33.3%) patients received chemotherapy, 24 (33.3%) received epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) therapy and 24 (33.3%) received best supportive care (BSC). Patients receiving chemotherapy or EGFR-TKIs in the ICU demonstrated better ICU (p = 0.011) and in-hospital (p = 0.034) survival than those receiving BSC only. Among patients requiring mechanical ventilation, those receiving chemotherapy had higher weaning rates than those receiving EGFR-TKIs or BSC (p = 0.002). In multivariate analysis, receipt of chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR], 0.443; p = 0.083) and mechanical ventilation (HR, 0.270; p = 0.022) were significantly associated with longer ICU survival after adjusting for clinical factors. Conclusions: Anticancer therapy in the ICU might provide better short-term ICU survival for treatment-naïve, critically ill lung cancer patients.

Abstract
The admission of lung cancer patients to intensive care is related to postprocedural/postoperative care and medical complications due to cancer or its treatment, but is also related to acute organ failure not directly related to cancer.Despite careful preoperative risk management and the use of modern surgical and anaesthetic techniques, thoracic surgery remains associated with high morbidity, related to the extent of resection and specific comorbidities. Fast-tracking processes with timely recognition and treatment of complications favourably influence patient outcome. Postoperative preventive and therapeutic management has to be carefully planned in order to reduce postoperative morbidity and mortality.For patients with severe complications, intensive care unit (ICU) mortality rate ranges from 13% to 47%, and hospital mortality ranges from 24% to 65%. Common predictors of in-hospital mortality are severity scores, number of failing organs, general condition, respiratory distress and the need for mechanical ventilation or vasopressors. When considering long-term survival after discharge, cancer-related parameters retain their prognostic value.Thoracic surgeons, anesthesiologists, pneumologists, intensivists and oncologists need to develop close and confident partnerships aimed at implementing evidence-based patient care, securing clinical pathways for patient management while promoting education, research and innovation. The final decision on admitting a patient with lung to the ICU should be taken in close partnership between this medical team and the patient and his or her relatives.

Abstract
Background As the population ages and cancer therapies improve, there is an increased call for elderly cancer patients to be admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). This study aimed to assess short-term survival and prognostic factors in critically ill patients with solid tumors aged ≥65 years. Methods We conducted a retrospective study. The primary endpoint was ICU mortality. Resumption of anticancer therapy in patients who survived the ICU stay and 90-day mortality were secondary endpoints. All patients aged ≥65 years admitted to the ICU of Georges Pompidou Hospital (Paris, France) between 2009 and 2014 were eligible. Results Of 2327 eligible elderly patients (EP), 262 (75.0 ± 6.7 years) with solid tumors were analyzed. These patients were extremely critically ill (SAPS 2 61.9 ± 22.5), and 60.3% had metastatic disease. Gastrointestinal, lung and genitourinary cancers were the most common types of tumors. Mechanical ventilation was required in 51.5% of patients, inotropes in 48.1% and dialysis in 12.6%. Most patients (66.7%) were admitted for reasons unrelated to cancer, including sepsis (30.5%), acute respiratory failure (28.2%) and neurological problems (8.0%). ICU mortality in patients with cancer was 33.6 versus 32.6% among patients without cancer (p = 0.75). Among the cancer EP, the 90-day mortality was 51.9% (n = 136). In multivariate analysis, increased SAPS 2 score and primary tumor site were associated with 90-day death, whereas previous anticancer therapies and poor performance status were not. Among survivor patients from ICU with anti-tumoral treatment indication, 77 (52.7%) had resumption of anticancer treatment. Conclusions Elderly solid tumor patients admitted to the ICU had a mortality rate similar to EP without cancer. Prognostic factors for 90-day mortality were more related to severity of clinical status at admission than the presence or stage of cancer, suggesting that early admission of EP with cancer to the ICU is appropriate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with cancer frequently require unplanned admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Our objectives were to assess hospital and 180-day mortality in patients with a non-haematological malignancy and unplanned ICU admission and to identify which factors present on admission were the best predictors of mortality. DESIGN Retrospective review of all patients with a diagnosis of solid tumours following unplanned admission to the ICU between 1 August 2008 and 31 July 2012. SETTING Single centre tertiary care hospital in London (UK). PARTICIPANTS 300 adult patients with non-haematological solid tumours requiring unplanned admission to the ICU. INTERVENTIONS None. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOMES Hospital and 180-day survival. RESULTS 300 patients were admitted to the ICU (median age 66.5 years; 61.7% men). Survival to hospital discharge and 180 days were 69% and 47.8%, respectively. Greater number of failed organ systems on admission was associated with significantly worse hospital survival (p<0.001) but not with 180-day survival (p=0.24). In multivariate analysis, predictors of hospital mortality were the presence of metastases (OR 1.97, 95% CI 1.08 to 3.59), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) Score (OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.13) and a Glasgow Coma Scale Score <7 on admission to ICU (OR 5.21, 95% CI 1.65 to 16.43). Predictors of worse 180-day survival were the presence of metastases (OR 2.82, 95% CI 1.57 to 5.06), APACHE II Score (OR 1.07, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.13) and sepsis (OR 1.92, 95% CI 1.09 to 3.38). CONCLUSIONS Short-term and medium-term survival in patients with solid tumours admitted to ICU is better than previously reported, suggesting that the presence of cancer alone should not be a barrier to ICU admission.

Abstract
The issue of intensive and palliative care in patients with chronic disease frequently arises. This review aims to describe the prognostic factors of chronic respiratory diseases in stable and in acute situations in order to improve the management of these complex situations. The various laws on patients' rights provide a legal framework and define the concept of unreasonable obstinacy. For patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the most robust decision factors are good knowledge of the respiratory disease, the comorbidities, the history of previous exacerbations and patient preferences. In the case of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, it is necessary to know if there is a prospect of transplantation and to assess the reversibility of the respiratory distress. In the case of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, treatment decisions depend on the presence of advance directives about the use of intubation and tracheostomy. For lung cancer patients, general condition, cancer history and the tumor treatment plan are important factors. A multidisciplinary discussion that takes into account the patient's medical history, wishes and the current state of knowledge permits the taking of a coherent decision.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes for patients with lung cancer admitted
to intensive care units and assess their clinical and demographic profiles. Methods Retrospective, analytical, observational study, wherein the outcomes for patients
diagnosed with lung cancer admitted to the intensive care unit of university
hospital from January 2010 until February 2011 were evaluated. Results Thirty-four patients' medical records were included. Twenty-six (76.5%) patients
received some type of ventilatory support, of whom 21 (61.8%) used invasive
mechanical ventilation and 11 (32.4%) used noninvasive ventilation at some point
during their stay at the intensive care unit. Regarding mortality, 12 (35.3%)
patients died during hospitalization at the intensive care unit, totaling 15
(44.1%) deaths during the entire hospitalization period; 19 (55.9%) patients were
discharged from the hospital. The analysis of the variables showed that the
patients who died had remained on invasive mechanical ventilation for a longer
period 5.0 (0.25 to 15.0) days than the survivors (1.0 (0 to 1.0) days) (p=0.033)
and underwent dialysis during their stay at the intensive care unit (p=0.014).
Conclusions The mortality of patients with lung cancer admitted to the intensive care unit is
associated with the time spent on invasive mechanical ventilation and the need for
dialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 65% of elderly patients with lung cancer who are admitted to the ICU will die within 6 months. Efforts to improve end-of-life care for this population must first understand the patient factors that underlie admission to the ICU. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study examining all fee-for-service inpatient claims in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare registry for elderly patients (aged > 65 years) who had received a diagnosis of lung cancer between 1992 and 2005 and who were hospitalized for reasons other than resection of their lung cancer. We calculated yearly rates of ICU admission per 1,000 hospitalizations via room and board codes or International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification and diagnosis-related group codes for mechanical ventilation, stratified the rates by receipt of mechanical ventilation and ICU type (medical/surgical/cardiac vs intermediate), and compared these rates over time. RESULTS A total of 175,756 patients with lung cancer in SEER were hospitalized for a reason other than surgical resection of their tumor during the study period, 49,373 (28%) of whom had at least one ICU stay. The rate of ICU admissions per 1,000 hospitalizations increased over the study period from 140.7 in 1992 to 201.7 in 2005 (P < .001). The majority of the increase in ICU admissions (per 1,000 hospitalizations) between 1992 and 2005 occurred among patients who were not mechanically ventilated (118.2 to 173.3, P < .001) and among those who were in intermediate ICUs (20.0 to 61.9, P < .001), but increased only moderately in medical/surgical/cardiac units (120.7 to 139.9, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS ICU admission for patients with lung cancer increased over time, mostly among patients without mechanical ventilation who were largely cared for in intermediate ICUs.

Abstract
In Western countries, lung cancer (LC) is the most common cause of cancer death. It is present in 15-20% of patients admitted to the ICU with a neoplastic condition. The purpose of this article is to review the causes of admission to ICU of patients with LC, their prognosis and the results of different life-support techniques. Most studies include mixed populations of non-small cell (NSCLC) and small-cell lung cancers (SCLC). However, there is preponderance of NSCLC (70%) and LC of advanced or metastatic stages, reflecting the distribution in the general population of LC. The cause of admission of LC patients to ICU is most often of respiratory origin. The ICU mortality rate currently ranges from 13 to 47% and the hospital mortality rate from 24 to 65%. The predictors of in-hospital mortality are mainly severity scores, organ dysfunction, general condition (performance status), respiratory distress and the need for mechanical ventilation or vasopressor drugs. When considering the long-term mortality, it is the features of the cancer (presence of metastases, cancer progression) that are important predictive factors.

Abstract
The decision-making process for the intensity of care delivered to patients with lung cancer and organ failure is poorly understood, and does not always involve intensivists. Our objective was to describe the potential suitability for intensive care unit (ICU) referral of lung cancer in-patients with organ failures.We prospectively included consecutive lung cancer patients with failure of at least one organ admitted to the teaching hospital in Grenoble, France, between December 2010 and October 2012.Of 140 patients, 121 (86%) were evaluated by an oncologist and 49 (35%) were referred for ICU admission, with subsequent admission for 36 (73%) out of those 49. Factors independently associated with ICU referral were performance status ⩽2 (OR 10.07, 95% CI 3.85–26.32), nonprogressive malignancy (OR 7.00, 95% CI 2.24–21.80), and no explicit refusal of ICU admission by the patient and/or family (OR 7.95, 95% CI 2.39–26.37). Factors independently associated with ICU admission were the initial ward being other than the lung cancer unit (OR 6.02, 95% CI 1.11–32.80) and an available medical ICU bed (OR 8.19, 95% CI 1.48–45.35).Only one-third of lung cancer patients with organ failures were referred for ICU admission. The decision not to consider ICU admission was often taken by a non-intensivist, with advice from an oncologist rather than an intensivist.

Abstract
Data on prognosis and predictors of overall survival in advanced lung cancer patients diagnosed following emergency admission (DFEA) are currently lacking. We retrospectively analysed data from 771 patients with advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer between April 2004 and April 2012. Of the 771 patients, 103 (13%) were DFEA. DFEA was not an independent predictor of overall survival by multivariate Cox proportional hazard models, whereas good performance status (PS), epidermal growth factor receptor gene mutation, stage IIIB, adenocarcinoma and chemotherapy were independent predictors of overall survival (hazard ratio (95% CI) 0.36 (0.29-0.44), p<0.001; 0.49 (0.38-0.63), p<0.001; 0.64 (0.51-0.80), p<0.001; 0.81 (0.67-0.99), p=0.044; and 0.40 (0.31-0.52), p<0.001, respectively). Good PS just prior to opting for chemotherapy, but not at emergency admission, was a good independent predictor of overall survival in DFEA patients (hazard ratio (95% CI) 0.26 (0.12-0.55); p<0.001). DFEA is relatively common. DFEA and PS at emergency admission were not independent predictors of overall survival, but good PS just prior to opting for chemotherapy was an independent predictor of longer overall survival. Efforts to improve patient PS after admission should be considered vital in such circumstances.

Abstract
PURPOSE One in seven patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU) has a cancer diagnosis but evidence on their expected outcomes after admission has not been synthesised. METHODS Systematic literature review of solid cancer adult patients admitted to ICU from 2000 onwards using EMBASE and MEDLINE electronic databases. RESULTS There were 48 papers identified that reported survival in ICU patients with solid cancers. ICU mortality was reported in 35 studies comprising a total sample of 25,339 patients and ranging from 4.5 to 85 %. The average mortality of the distribution of reported mortality rates within ICU was 31.2 % (95 % CI 24.0-39.0 %). Hospital mortality was reported in 31 studies across a total sample of 74,061 patients. The average hospital mortality was 38.2 % (33.8-42.7 %) and ranged from 4.6 to 76.8 %. Poorer physiological score, invasive mechanical ventilation and poor functional status were associated with higher mortality. CONCLUSIONS Several factors have been associated with poor survival in ICU cancer patients; however, primary research is still needed to describe outcomes in cancer patients with sufficient case mix and treatment details to be of prognostic value to clinicians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Detailed information about lung cancer patients requiring admission to intensive care units (ICUs) is mostly restricted to single-center studies. Our aim was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of lung cancer patients admitted to ICUs. PATIENTS AND METHODS Prospective multicenter study in 449 patients with lung cancer (small cell, n = 55; non-small cell, n = 394) admitted to 22 ICUs in six countries in Europe and South America during 2011. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards frailty models were built to identify characteristics associated with 30-day and 6-month mortality. RESULTS Most of the patients (71%) had newly diagnosed cancer. Cancer-related complications occurred in 56% of patients; the most common was tumoral airway involvement (26%). Ventilatory support was required in 53% of patients. Overall hospital, 30-day, and 6-month mortality rates were 39%, 41%, and 55%, respectively. After adjustment for type of admission and early treatment-limitation decisions, determinants of mortality were organ dysfunction severity, poor performance status (PS), recurrent/progressive cancer, and cancer-related complications. Mortality rates were far lower in the patient subset with nonrecurrent/progressive cancer and a good PS, even those with sepsis, multiple organ dysfunctions, and need for ventilatory support. Mortality was also lower in high-volume centers. Poor PS predicted failure to receive the initially planned cancer treatment after hospital discharge. CONCLUSIONS ICU admission was associated with meaningful survival in lung cancer patients with good PS and non-recurrent/progressive disease. Conversely, mortality rates were very high in patients not fit for anticancer treatment and poor PS. In this subgroup, palliative care may be the best option.

Abstract
Background The toxicity of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is less than that of cytotoxic agents. The reports of dramatic response and improvement in performance status with the use of EGFR TKIs may influence a physician’s decision-making for patients with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and life-threatening respiratory distress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of rescue or maintenance therapy with EGFR TKI for stage IIIb-IV non-squamous NSCLC patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Methods Eighty-three Asian patients with stage IIIb-IV non-squamous NSCLC and who required mechanical ventilation between June 2005 and January 2010 were evaluated. Results Of the 83 patients, 16 (19%) were successfully weaned from the ventilator. The use of EGFR TKI as rescue or maintenance therapy during respiratory failure did not improve the rate of successful weaning (standard care 18% vs. with EGFR TKI, 22%; p = 0.81) in univariate and multivariate analyses. Conclusions Rescue or maintenance therapy with EGFR TKI for stage IIIb-IV non-squamous NSCLC patients requiring mechanical ventilation was not associated with better outcome. An end-of-life discussion should be an important aspect in the care of this group of patients, since only 19% were successfully weaned from mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
Lung cancer still remains the leading cause of cancer death among males. Several new methodologies are being used in the everyday practise for diagnosis and staging. Novel targeted therapies are being used and others are being investigated. However; early diagnosis still remains the cornerstone for efficient treatment and disease management. Lung cancer patients requires in many situations intensive care unit (ICU) admission, either due to the necessity for supportive care until efficient disease symptom control (respiratory distress due to malignant pleural effusion) or disease adverse effect management (massive pulmonary embolism). In any case guidelines indicating the patient that has to be intubated have not yet been issued. In the current review we will present current data and finally present an algorithm based on the current published information for lung cancer patients that will probably benefit from admission to the ICU.
