Filter by:This phase 2 study aim to investigate the effect of dobutamine in patients with sepsis/ septic shock after fluid resuscitation and with hypoperfusion (lactate and central venous oxygen saturation or prolonged capillary refill time) on renal function as compared with usual care.
Investigating lactate metabolism in critically ill patients whom are hypoperfused by preforming metabolomics via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.
The objective of this non-significant risk (NSR) study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the MicroTrend System by correlating POMCO2 data with relevant clinical metrics including arterial pressure and heart rate.
The investigators aimed to research the incidence of hyperlactatemia in craniotomy cases, the relationship of lactate elevation with tumor type and other factors that may be related, and whether the general anesthesia method applied (inhalation anesthesia or total ıntravenous anesthesia) affects lactate level.
Study type: Prospective Observational trial Study design: Longitudinal Population: Preterm newborns <32 weeks gestational age Hypothesis: The inclusion of non-invasive physiological measures of cardiac output, peripheral perfusion and brain oxygenation (NIRS) for preterm neonates is feasible and reveals additional information on the hemodynamic status compared to blood pressure alone. These measurements can improve the ability to rapidly identify those infants who might benefit from intervention and are correlated with short term clinical outcomes.
The study will examine the ability of renal ultrasound (Doppler and Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound (CEUS)) in distinguishing ICU patients who exhibit increases in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in response to fluid loading, from those for whom fluid loading is without benefit of directly harmful.
Sepsis induces both a systolic and diastolic cardiac dysfunction. The prevalence of this septic cardiomyopathy ranges between 30 and 60% according to the timing of assessment and definition used. Although the prognostic role of septic cardiomyopathy remains debated, sepsis-induced left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction may be severe and associated with tissue hypoperfusion, while it appears to fully recover in survivors. Accordingly, optimization of therapeutic management of septic cardiomyopathy may contribute to improve tissue hypoperfusion in increasing oxygen delivery, and to reduce related organ dysfunctions in septic shock patients. Echocardiography is currently the recommended first-line modality to assess patients with acute circulatory failure. Current Surviving Sepsis Campaign strongly recommends Norepinephrine as the first-choice vasopressor in fluid-filled patients with septic shock. In contrast, the use of Dobutamine is only suggested (weak recommendation, low quality of evidence) in patients with persistent tissue hypoperfusion despite adequate fluid resuscitation and vasopressor support. Levosimendan, an alternative inodilator, has failed preventing acute organ dysfunction in septic patients and has induced more supraventricular tachyarrhythmias than in the control group. Data supporting Dobutamine in this setting are scarce and primarily physiologic and based on monitored effects of this drug on hemodynamics and indices of tissue perfusion. No randomized controlled trials have yet compared the effects of Dobutamine versus placebo on clinical outcomes. In open-labelled, small sample trials, the ability of septic patients to increase their oxygen delivery during Dobutamine administration appears to be associated with lower mortality. The tested hypothesis in the ADAPT trial is that Dobutamine will reduce tissue hypoperfusion and associated organ dysfunctions in patients with septic shock and associated septic cardiomyopathy. In doing so, it may participate in improving clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to determine if fluorescence angiography can detect occult shock (hypoperfusion).
The carotid arteries are blood vessels in the neck that supply blood to the brain. Carotid stenosis disease is defined as a narrowing of these arteries due to the build up of plaque. The plaque material can also break off and move into the brain. The resulting blockage of blood supply to a portion of the brain is what causes 80% of all strokes. One treatment option is to have surgery on the carotid artery and remove the plaque. This procedure is called a carotid endarterectomy (CEA). There is evidence that proves CEA reduces the risk of stroke. The objective of this research project is to determine who is most likely to benefit from CEA surgery.
During exercise, splanchnic perfusion is compromised, resulting in organ damage in healthy individuals. Improving the availability of NO might result increase splanchnic perfusion and prevent organ damage during exercise.
