Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) caused by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is poorly described in the literature. However, it has been shown to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Probabilistic antibiotic therapy against S. often ineffective as this pathogen resistant many antibiotics. There no consensus at present on best therapeutic strategy adopt (class of antibiotics, combination, dosage, treatment duration). The aim study was evaluate effect prognosis patients VAP...
Background Treatment by venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is widely used today, even though it associated with high risks of complications and death. While studies have focused on the relationship between some these risk death, different has never been specifically examined, despite fact that occurrence one complication known to favor others. Our objective was describe in patients undergoing VA-ECMO intensive care unit (ICU) identify, if possible, patterns according...
The aim of this study was to compare the prognosis patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) due severe syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant 501Y.V2 that ARF original strain. This retrospective matched cohort included all consecutive who were hospitalized for SARS-CoV-2 in Reunion Island University Hospital between March 2020 and 2021. Twenty-eight hospital mortality evaluated before after matching. A total 218 enrolled study. Of these, 83 (38.1%) infected variant. During...
Severe poisoning due to the overdosing of cardiac drugs can lead cardiovascular failure. In order decrease mortality rate, most severe patients should be transferred as quickly possible an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) center. However, predictive factors showing need for venous-arterial ECMO (VA-ECMO) had never been evaluated.A retrospective, descriptive, and single-center cohort study. All consecutive admitted in largest ICU Reunion Island (Indian Ocean) between January 2013...
BackgroundVeno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is an efficient ventilatory support in patients with refractory Covid-19-related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), however the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) before ECMO initiation as a contraindication still controversial. The aim this study was to investigate impact prolonged IMV prior VV-ECMO suffering from ARDS.MethodsThis single-center retrospective included all treated for ARDS between...
In February 2021, an explosion of cases severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia overwhelmed the only hospital in Mayotte. To report a case series patients with failure (ARF) due to SARS-CoV-2 who were evacuated by air from Mayotte Reunion Island.This retrospective observational study evaluated all consecutive ARF Hospital intensive care unit (ICU) Félix Guyon University Island between 2, and March 5, 2021.A total 43 air, for flight time hours travel 6 hours. Of...
Even though alcoholism is a major health concern, alcoholic cardiomyopathy little-known pathology. The exact prevalence remains elusive (20-40% of dilated cardiomyopathy). However, it can lead to cardiomyopathy, heart failure and refractory cardiogenic shock. literature on shock in limited. We report 4 cases patients with due heavy alcohol consumption, who were treated venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. evolution was favourable recovery 3 the need for transplantation 1...
There are currently no data regarding characteristics of critically ill patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant concern (VOC) 20H/501Y.V2. We therefore aimed to describe changes in Covid-19 between the first and second wave when viral genome sequencing indicated that VOC was largely dominant Mayotte Island (Indian Ocean). Consecutive over 18 years admitted unique intensive care unit (ICU) during were compared an historical cohort 1. performed a LR...
Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to compare the prognosis patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) due severe syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant 501Y.V2 that ARF original strain. Methods : This retrospective matched cohort included all consecutive who were hospitalized for SARS-CoV-2 in Reunion Island University Hospital between March 2020 and 2021. Twenty-eight hospital mortality evaluated before after matching. Results A total 218 enrolled study. Of these, 83...
Abstract Purpose : Venoarterial-ECMO (VA-ECMO) is indicated in the management of refractory cardiogenic shock. There currently no risk factor for early mortality, i.e. occurring within 72 hours implantation. Highlighting them could avoid unnecessary recourse to this costly and heavy-care technique. The objective study determine factors associated with mortality patients implanted VA-ECMO construct a prognostic score. Methods: This single-center retrospective included all treated at Felix...
