Methylene blue (MB) has been tested as a rescue therapy for patients with refractory septic shock. However, there is lack of evidence on MB an adjuvant therapy, its' optimal timing, dosing and safety profile. We aimed to assess whether early adjunctive can reduce time vasopressor discontinuation in shock.In this single-center randomized controlled trial, we assigned shock according Sepsis-3 criteria or placebo. Primary outcome was at 28 days. Secondary outcomes included vasopressor-free days...
Abstract Background Awake prone positioning (APP) improves oxygenation in coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patients and, when successful, may decrease the risk of intubation. However, factors associated with APP success remain unknown. In this secondary analysis, we aimed to assess whether can reduce intubation rate COVID-19 and focus on success. Methods multicenter randomized controlled trial, conducted three high-acuity units, randomly assigned COVID-19-induced acute hypoxemic respiratory...
Importance The impact of awake prone positioning (APP) on clinical outcomes in patients with COVID-19 and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) remains uncertain. Objective To assess the association APP improved among AHRF, to identify potential effect modifiers. Data Sources PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov were searched through August 1, 2024. Study Selection Randomized trials (RCTs) examining adults AHRF that reported intubation rate or mortality included....
OBJECTIVES: Airway pressure release ventilation is a ventilatory mode characterized by mandatory inverse inspiratory:expiratory ratio with very short expiratory phase, aimed to avoid derecruitment and allow spontaneous breathing. Recent basic clinical evidence suggests that this could be associated improved outcomes in patients acute respiratory distress syndrome. The aim of study was compare the between airway traditional targeting low tidal volume, severe coronavirus disease 2019. DESIGN:...
The evaluation of fluid responsiveness in patients with hemodynamic instability remains to be challenging. This investigation aimed determine whether respiratory variation carotid Doppler peak velocity (ΔCDPV) predicts septic shock and lung protective mechanical ventilation a tidal volume 6 ml/kg.We performed prospective cohort study at an intensive care unit, studying the effect 59 challenges on 19 mechanically ventilated shock. Pre-fluid challenge ΔCDPV other static or dynamic measurements...
Abstract Background Awake prone positioning (APP) reduces the intubation rate in COVID-19 patients treated by high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). However, lung aeration response to APP has not been addressed. We aimed explore ultrasound (LUS). Methods This two-center, prospective, observational study enrolled with COVID-19-induced acute hypoxemic respiratory failure HFNC and APP. LUS score was recorded 5–10 min before, 1 h after APP, supine first session within three days. The primary outcome...
Abstract Objective: Rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) are several times above those high-income countries. The objective this study was to identify risk factors (RFs) for VAP cases ICUs LMICs. Design: Prospective cohort study. Setting: This conducted across 743 282 hospitals 144 cities 42 Asian, African, European, Latin American, Middle Eastern Participants: included patients admitted 24 years. Results: In total, 289,643 were followed...
To identify urinary catheter (UC)-associated tract infection (CAUTI) incidence and risk factors.
To identify central-line (CL)-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI) incidence and risk factors in low- middle-income countries (LMICs).From July 1, 1998, to February 12, 2022, we conducted a multinational multicenter prospective cohort study using online standardized surveillance system unified forms.The included 728 ICUs of 286 hospitals 147 cities 41 African, Asian, Eastern European, Latin American, Middle countries.In total, 278,241 patients followed during 1,815,043 patient days...
The International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) has found a high ICU mortality rate in Latin America.A prospective cohort study 198 ICUs of 96 hospitals 46 cities 12 American countries to identify risk factors (RF), and data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression.Between 07/01/1998 02/12/2022, 71,685 patients, followed during 652,167 patient-days, acquired 4700 HAIs, 10,890 died. We prospectively collected 16 variables. Following 11 independent RFs identified...

Abstract Background: Data on short-term peripheral intravenous catheter–related bloodstream infections per 1,000 venous catheter days (PIVCR BSIs PVC days) rates from Latin America are not available, so they have been thoroughly studied. Methods: International Nosocomial Infection Control Consortium (INICC) members conducted a prospective, surveillance study PIVCR January 2010 to March 2018 in 100 intensive care units (ICUs) among 41 hospitals, 26 cities of 9 countries (Argentina, Brazil,...
To characterize the prescribing patterns for hydrocortisone patients with septic shock and perform an exploratory analysis in order to identify variables associated better outcomes.This prospective cohort study included 59 who received stress-dose hydrocortisone. It was performed at 2 critical care units academic hospitals from June 1st, 2015, July 31st, 2016. Demographic data, comorbidities, medical management details, adverse effects related corticosteroids, outcomes were collected after...
