Filter by:Hemodynamic evaluation during pediatric anesthesia is essential to care management. Intraoperative cardiovascular instability is frequent in major surgeries, and appropriate monitoring is necessary to ensure safe anesthetic conduction and promptly detect changes in blood pressure, cardiac output, blood volume, and organ perfusion. In this context, advanced hemodynamic monitoring, continuous measuring, and estimating various parameters can allow a more specific hemodynamic profile and help identify the causal mechanisms of its variability. Moreover, the reference ranges of hemodynamic values in different pediatric ages and how to best monitor hemodynamic status in pediatrics are still debated. Surgical treatment of craniosynostosis is usually performed at an early age, between 3 and 8 months of age. The operation is burdened by a high risk of hemodynamic instability related mainly, but not only, to potential substantial hemorrhagic losses. This study aims to characterize the hemodynamic events occurring during corrective craniosynostosis surgery, recorded simultaneously with standard monitoring and Pressure Recording Analytic Method (PRAM), and to analyze the paired measurements.
This is an observational, prospective, single-centre study that will focus on patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery requiring invasive mechanical ventilation and invasive blood pressure monitoring Hypotheses: A positive TVC (tidal volume challenge) prior to the recruitment manoeuvre (RM) predicts a decrease in CI within 5 minutes of individualised PEEP establishment of at least 10%. 1. T0: Moment prior to the start of tidal volume challenge. Baseline values 2. T1: After tidal volume challenge, moment priorate the start of the recruitment manoeuvre (RM). Mostcare and ventilator values. From this moment on, the parameters obtained from Mostcare will be analysed continuously (minute by minute) until 15 minutes after establishing the individualised PEEP. 3. T2: At minute 5 of establishing individualised PEEP. All parameters derived from basic monitoring, Mostcare, and ventilator monitoring shall be monitored and recorded. Record whether any fluid bolus has been administered.
This is a prospective, multi-centric, open-labeled, phase-IV clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of centhaquine citrate (LYFAQUIN™), a first-in-class drug for treating hypovolemic shock, a life-threatening condition caused by severe blood or fluid loss. Centhaquine has been found to be an effective resuscitative agent in rat, rabbit, and swine models of hemorrhagic shock. It has demonstrated the ability to decrease blood lactate levels, increase mean arterial pressure, enhance cardiac output, and reduce mortality rates. The increase in cardiac output during resuscitation is primarily attributed to an augmentation in stroke volume. Centhaquine exerts its effects by acting on the venous α2B-adrenergic receptors, which enhances venous return to the heart. Additionally, it produces arterial dilation by targeting central α2A-adrenergic receptors, thereby reducing sympathetic activity and systemic vascular resistance.
The goal of this pragmatic, multi-center, superiority, randomized clinical trial is to compare early treatment with peripheral (through a vein) infused noradrenaline (a natural hormone that increases blood pressure) with fluid only therapy in patients with hypotensive and shock in the Danish Emergency Departments (ED). The main questions it aims to answer are: If early initiated noradrenaline in non-bleeding hypotensive patients presenting in the ED can - Improve time to shock control. - Reduce the need for ICU admittance. - Decrease mortality. Participants will be included by the clinical staff and treated urgently with either noradrenaline or usual treatment during their Emergency Department stay. After completion of the treatment in the Emergency Department, patient data will be extracted from the bed-side measurements, electronic health records and national registers. Patients will be contacted by the research staff 1 year after study inclusion to answer brief questions about their daily physical function and ability to care for themselves. Researchers will compare with patients receiving fluid therapy only, as this is the usual standard of care in Danish Emergency Departments.
Intravenous fluids are often given to increase stroke volume and thereby improve global oxygen delivery. The effect is however often transient, but the effect of a fluid bolus on stroke volume and other hemodynamic variables over time are poorly described. The volume effect of a fluid bolus (effect on blood volume) can be calculated by measuring Haemoglobin. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the hemodynamic effects of a fluid bolus during normovolemia and hypovolemia in healthy volunteers. Study details include: • Study Duration: 2 visits of approximately 2 h duration each + follow-up visit. Visits 1 and 2 are at least 2 days apart. Number of Participants: A maximum of 15 participants will be enrolled to study intervention such that 12 evaluable participants complete the study
Fluid therapy is important in patients with sepsis and septic shock. There are many invasive and non-invasive methods to assess fluid responsiveness in patients. The specificities and sensitivities of these methods are highly variable. The reason for our study was to determine end-tidal co2 and fluid responsiveness in septic shock patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the fluid response using the End-tidal CO2 difference in septic shock patients receiving intubated mechanical ventilation support.

Patients with cirrhosis patients have a high incidence of sepsis which can trigger decompensation and may result in prolonged hospital stay and increased mortality. About 30%-50% admissions of patients with cirrhosis have sepsis at presentation and about 15% patients admitted to hospital develop sepsis during the hospital stay . After infection develops, the patient may develop acute kidney injury (AKI), shock, encephalopathy or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) further decreasing the chances of survival. In fact, sepsis in patients with cirrhosis is associated with 15% in-hospital mortality, approximately double that of patients without sepsis. So, sepsis is directly responsible for 30-50% of deaths in cirrhosis . Therefore, it is critical to manage sepsis early and appropriately in cirrhosis to reduce the complications and mortality. Early administration of fluids, source control and empirical antibiotics along with vasopressors if refractory shock are essential components of treatment in all patients with sepsis. Currently, the most accepted strategy for early sepsis management is a combination of early goal directed therapy (EGDT) and physiological parameters, such as urine output, lactate clearance, and administration of antibiotics, within 1 hour of presentation . The use of central venous pressure assessment is fallacious for gauging adequacy of fluid resuscitation in cirrhosis, and the difficulty of performing echocardiographic assessments in the setting of ascites and cirrhotic cardiomyopathy is also well described .
Initial fluid resuscitation remains the first treatment step for most children experiencing circulatory failure and/or systemic hypotension. Only one-half of these patients respond to fluid administration by a significant increase in cardiac output. A positive fluid balance is a poor prognostic factor that increases mortality. There are few markers validated in children to assess volume reactivity by dynamic ultrasound parameters mainly based on heart-lung interaction. In this work, the investigators propose to investigate whether dynamic parameters validated in adults, such as the superior vena caval collapsibility and the variability of cardiac output during an end-expiratory and end-inspiratory occlusion, are also reliable indicators of volume responsiveness in sedated children under controlled-mode ventilation.
Diarrhea is one of the leading causes of under-five childhood mortality and accounts for 8% of 5.4 million global under-5 deaths. The coexistence of sepsis and hypovolemic shock in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) having diarrhea is common. At Dhaka hospital of icddr,b, the death rate is as high as 40% and 69% in children with severe sepsis and septic shock respectively with co-morbidities such as severe malnutrition. The conventional management of SAM children with features of severe sepsis recommended by WHO includes administration of boluses of isotonic saline followed by blood transfusion in unresponsive cases with septic shock; whereas the Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) guideline recommends vasoactive support. To date, no study has evaluated systematically the effects of inotrope(s) and vasopressor or blood transfusion in children with dehydrating diarrhea (for example, in cholera) and SAM having shock and unresponsive to WHO standard fluid therapy. This randomized trial will generate evidence whether inotrope and vasopressor or blood transfusion should be selected for severely malnourished children having hypotensive shock and who failed to respond to WHO standard fluid bolus.
