After cardiac surgery, fluid bolus therapy (FBT) with 20% human albumin may facilitate less and vasopressor administration than FBT crystalloids. We aimed to determine whether, after reduces the duration of compared crystalloid FBT. conducted a multicentre, parallel-group, open-label, randomised clinical trial in six intensive care units (ICUs) involving surgery patients deemed require 240 receive up 400 mL albumin/day as FBT, followed by 4% for any subsequent on that day, or at least first...
Measurement of central venous oxygen (SvO2) levels remains an important method for the detection circulatory shock. Plastic blood gas syringes have supplanted glass. These are, however, permeable to atmospheric oxygen. Common sampling practices, including a delay between aspiration and analysis continuous mixing sample, may promote equilibration sample with could result in over estimation SvO2 levels.Pulmonary artery or catheter samples were taken from 21 critically ill patients. Two...
Severe hyperlactataemia in patients after cardiac surgery is associated with poor prognosis and implies possible splanchnic hypoperfusion. Peripheral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (splanchnic ECMO) may be more effective at reducing lactic acidosis for these patients.To investigate whether ECMO attenuates liver enzyme release patients, despite them having a index > 2 L/min/m2 mixed venous oxygen saturation 55%.Retrospective matched case- control study of treated...
Background The incidence of severe acute maternal morbidity (SAMM) is one method measuring the complexity health and monitoring outcomes. Monitoring trends may provide a quantitative for assessing care at local, regional, or jurisdictional levels identify issues further investigation. Aims Identify temporal SAMM event rates outcomes over 17 years in state Victoria, Australia. Materials Methods All public service admissions were extracted from an administrative dataset July 2000 to June 2017....
