To evaluate pregnant/postpartum patients requiring ICUs admission in Argentina, describe characteristics of mothers and outcomes for mothers/babies, risk factors maternal-fetal-neonatal mortality; compare between admitted to public private health sectors.Multicenter, prospective, national cohort study.Twenty Argentina (public, 8 private, 12).Pregnant/postpartum (< 42 d) ICU.None.Three hundred sixty-two were recruited, 51% from the sector 49% private. Acute Physiology Chronic Health...
Resuscitation of septic patients regarding goals, monitoring aspects and therapy is highly variable. Our aim was to characterize cardiovascular fluid management sepsis in Argentina, a low middle-income country (LMIC). Furthermore, we sought test whether the utilization dynamic tests responsiveness, as guide for after initial resuscitation with persistent or recurrent hypoperfusion, associated decreased mortality.Secondary analysis national, multicenter prospective cohort study (n = 787)...
Socioeconomic variables impact health outcomes but have rarely been evaluated in critical illness. Low- and middle-income countries bear the highest burden of sepsis also significant inequities. In Argentina, public hospitals serve poorest segment population, while private institutions patients with coverage. Our objective was to analyze differences mortality between hospitals, using Sepsis-3 definitions. This is a multicenter, prospective cohort study including admitted 49 Argentine ICUs...
To evaluate the effect of high-flow oxygen implementation on respiratory rate as a first-line ventilation support in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with acute hypercapnic failure.Multicenter, prospective, analytic observational case series study.Five ICUs Argentina, between August 2018 and September 2019.Patients greater than or equal to 18 years old moderate very severe disease, who had been admitted ICU diagnosis failure, were entered study.High-flow therapy through nasal...
<h3>BACKGROUND:</h3> High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) enables delivery of humidified gas at high flow while controlling the F<sub>IO<sub>2</sub></sub>. Although its use is growing in patients with acute respiratory failure, little known about impact HFNC on lung volume. Therefore, we aimed to assess volume changes healthy subjects different flows and positions. <h3>METHODS:</h3> This was a prospective physiological study performed 16 subjects. The volumes were assessed by measuring...
Intensive care unit (ICU) outcome prediction models, such as Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE), were designed in general critical populations and their use obstetric is contentious. The aim of the CIPHER (Collaborative Integrated Pregnancy High-dependency Estimate Risk) study was to develop internally validate a multivariable prognostic model calibrated specifically for pregnant or recently delivered women admitted care.A retrospective observational cohort created this...
Summary Reperfusion injury remains one of the major problems in transplantation. Repair from ischaemic acute renal failure (ARF) involves stimulation tubular epithelial cell proliferation. The aim this exploratory study was to evaluate effects preconditioning donor animals with rapamycin and tacrolimus prevent ischaemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury. Twelve hours before nephrectomy, received immunosuppressive drugs. were divided into four groups, as follows: group 1 control: no treatment; 2: (2...
Abstract Background To determine the frequency of, and factors associated with, death in hospital following ICU discharge to ward. Methods The Large observational study UNderstand Global impact of Severe Acute respiratory FailurE was an international, multicenter, prospective cohort patients with severe failure, conducted across 459 ICUs from 50 countries globally. This aimed understand who survived their stay. We examined outcomes subpopulation discharged no limitations life sustaining...
Abstract Background Patients with acute respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) may require mechanical ventilation that can cause further lung damage. Our aim was to determine the impact of ventilatory settings on CPE mortality. Methods from LUNG SAFE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort study patients undergoing ventilation, were studied. Relationships between parameters and outcomes (ICU discharge/hospital mortality) assessed using latent mixture analysis...
Summary Brain death (BD), a non-immunological factor of renal injury, triggers an inflammatory process causing pathological signs cell in the kidney, such as necrosis and apoptosis. Kidneys from brain dead donors show lower success rates than kidneys living one strategy to improve transplantation outcome is precondition donors. For first time, anti-rat thymoglobulin (rATG) was administered experimental animal model evaluate if it could ameliorate histopathological damage organ function....
