Abstract
BACKGROUND Monitoring fluid therapy is challenging in patients assisted with Veno-arterial ECMO. The aim of our study was to evaluate the usefulness of capillary refill time to assess the response to fluid challenge in patients assisted with VA-ECMO. METHODS Retrospective monocentric study in a cardiac surgery ICU. We assess fluid responsiveness after a fluid challenge in patients on VA-ECMO. We recorded capillary refill time before and after fluid challenge and the evolution of global hemodynamic parameters. RESULTS A total of 27 patients were included. The main indications for VA-ECMO were post-cardiotomy cardiogenic shock (44%). Thirteen patients (42%) were responders and 14 non-responders (58%). In the responder group, the index CRT decreased significantly (1.7 [1.5; 2.1] vs. 1.2 [1; 1.3] s; p = 0.01), whereas it remained stable in the non-responder group (1.4 [1.1; 2.5] vs. 1.6 [0.9; 1.9] s; p = 0.22). Diagnosis performance of CRT variation to assess response after fluid challenge shows an AUC of 0.68 (p = 0.10) with a sensitivity of 79% [95% CI, 52-92] and a specificity of 69% [95% CI, 42-87], with a threshold at 23%. CONCLUSION In patients treated with VA-ECMO index capillary refill time is a reliable tool to assesses fluid responsiveness. SPECIALTY Critical care, Cardiac surgery, ECMO.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review summarizes current literature about the relationships between macro and microcirculation and their practical clinical implications in children with septic shock. RECENT FINDINGS Current evidence from experimental and clinical observational studies in children and adults with septic shock reveals that the response to treatment and resuscitation is widely variable. Furthermore, there is a loss of hemodynamic coherence, as resuscitation-induced improvement in macrocirculation (systemic hemodynamic parameters) does not necessarily result in a parallel improvement in the microcirculation. Therefore, patient-tailored monitoring is essential in order to adjust treatment requirements during resuscitation in septic shock. Optimal monitoring must integrate macrocirculation (heart rate, blood pressure, cardiac output, and ultrasound images), microcirculation (videomicroscopy parameters and capillary refill time) and cellular metabolism (lactic acid, central venous blood oxygen saturation, and difference of central venous to arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure). SUMMARY There is a dire need for high-quality studies to assess the relationships between macrocirculation, microcirculation and tissue metabolism in children with septic shock. The development of reliable and readily available microcirculation and tissue perfusion biomarkers (other than lactic acid) is also necessary to improve monitoring and treatment adjustment in such patients.

Abstract
Background: The peripheral perfusion index (PI) reflects microcirculatory blood flow perfusion and indicates the severity and prognosis of sepsis. Method: The cohort comprised 208 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with infection, among which 117 had sepsis. Demographics, medication history, ICU variables, and laboratory indexes were collected. Primary endpoints were in-hospital mortality and 28-day mortality. Secondary endpoints included organ function variables (coagulation function, liver function, renal function, and myocardial injury), lactate concentration, mechanical ventilation time, and length of ICU stay. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the associations between the PI and clinical outcomes. Sensitivity analyses were performed to explore the associations between the PI and organ functions in the sepsis and nonsepsis groups. Result: The PI was negatively associated with in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] 0.29, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.15 to 0.55), but was not associated with 28-day mortality. The PI was negatively associated with the coagulation markers prothrombin time (PT) (β -0.36, 95% CI -0.59 to 0.13) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) (β -1.08, 95% CI -1.86 to 0.31), and the myocardial injury marker cardiac troponin I (cTnI) (β -2085.48, 95% CI -3892.35 to 278.61) in univariate analysis, and with the PT (β -0.36, 95% CI -0.60 to 0.13) in multivariate analysis. The PI was negatively associated with the lactate concentration (β -0.57, 95% CI -0.95 to 0.19), mechanical ventilation time (β -23.11, 95% CI -36.54 to 9.69), and length of ICU stay (β -1.28, 95% CI -2.01 to 0.55). Sensitivity analyses showed that the PI was significantly associated with coagulation markers (PT and APTT) and a myocardial injury marker (cTnI) in patients with sepsis, suggesting that the associations between the PI and organ function were stronger in the sepsis group than the nonsepsis group. Conclusion: The PI provides new insights for assessing the disease severity, short-term prognosis, and organ function damage in ICU patients with sepsis, laying a theoretical foundation for future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent advances on cardiorespiratory monitoring applied in ARDS patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation and noninvasive ventilatory support are available in the literature and may have potential prognostic implication in ARDS treatment. MAIN BODY The measurement of oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry is a valid, low-cost, noninvasive alternative for assessing arterial oxygenation. Caution must be taken in patients with darker skin pigmentation, who may experience a greater incidence of occult hypoxemia. Dead space surrogates, which are easy to calculate, have important prognostic implications. The mechanical power, which can be automatically computed by intensive care ventilators, is an important parameter correlated with ventilator-induced lung injury and outcome. In patients undergoing noninvasive ventilatory support, the use of esophageal pressure can measure inspiratory effort, avoiding possible delays in endotracheal intubation. Fluid responsiveness can also be evaluated using dynamic indices in patients ventilated at low tidal volumes (< 8 mL/kg). In patients ventilated at high levels of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), the PEEP test represents a valid alternative to passive leg raising. There is growing evidence on alternative parameters for evaluating fluid responsiveness, such as central venous oxygen saturation variations, inferior vena cava diameter variations and capillary refill time. CONCLUSION Careful cardiorespiratory monitoring in patients affected by ARDS is crucial to improve prognosis and to tailor treatment via mechanical ventilatory support.

Abstract
As a key glycolytic metabolite, lactate has a central role in diverse physiological and pathological processes. However, comprehensive multiscale analysis of lactate metabolic dynamics in vitro and in vivo has remained an unsolved problem until now owing to the lack of a high-performance tool. We recently developed a series of genetically encoded fluorescent sensors for lactate, named FiLa, which illuminate lactate metabolism in cells, subcellular organelles, animals, and human serum and urine. In this protocol, we first describe the FiLa sensor-based strategies for real-time subcellular bioenergetic flux analysis by profiling the lactate metabolic response to different nutritional and pharmacological conditions, which provides a systematic-level view of cellular metabolic function at the subcellular scale for the first time. We also report detailed procedures for imaging lactate dynamics in live mice through a cell microcapsule system or recombinant adeno-associated virus and for the rapid and simple assay of lactate in human body fluids. This comprehensive multiscale metabolic analysis strategy may also be applied to other metabolite biosensors using various analytic platforms, further expanding its usability. The protocol is suited for users with expertise in biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology. Typically, the preparation of FiLa-expressing cells or mice takes 2 days to 4 weeks, and live-cell and in vivo imaging can be performed within 1-2 hours. For the FiLa-based assay of body fluids, the whole measuring procedure generally takes ~1 min for one sample in a manual assay or ~3 min for 96 samples in an automatic microplate assay.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to examine the effects of intravenous (IV) fluid restriction on time to resolution of hyperlactatemia in septic shock. Hyperlactatemia in sepsis is associated with worse outcome. Sepsis guidelines suggest targeting lactate clearance to guide fluid therapy despite the complexity of hyperlactatemia and the potential harm of fluid overload. METHODS We conducted a post hoc analysis of serial plasma lactate concentrations in a sub-cohort of 777 patients from the international multicenter clinical CLASSIC trial (restriction of intravenous fluids in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with septic shock). Adult ICU patients with septic shock had been randomized to restrictive (n = 385) or standard (n = 392) intravenous fluid therapy. The primary outcome, time to resolution of hyperlactatemia, was analyzed with a competing-risks regression model. Death and discharge were competing outcomes, and administrative censoring was imposed 72 h after randomization if hyperlactatemia persisted. The regression analysis was adjusted for the same stratification variables and covariates as in the original CLASSIC trial analysis. RESULTS The hazard ratios (HRs) for the cumulative probability of resolution of hyperlactatemia, in the restrictive vs the standard group, in the unadjusted analysis, with time split, were 0.94 (confidence interval (CI) 0.78-1.14) at day 1 and 1.21 (0.89-1.65) at day 2-3. The adjusted analyses were consistent with the unadjusted results. CONCLUSION In this post hoc retrospective analysis of a multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT), a restrictive intravenous fluid strategy did not seem to affect the time to resolution of hyperlactatemia in adult ICU patients with septic shock.

Abstract
PURPOSE Venous congestion is a pathophysiologic state that can result in organ dysfunction, particularly acute kidney injury (AKI). We sought to evaluate the feasibility of performing a definitive observational study to determine the impact of venous congestion quantified using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in patients with septic shock. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational feasibility study at two intensive care units (ICUs). We recruited adult patients with septic shock within 12 hr of ICU admission. Using the validated Venous Excess Ultrasound Score (VEXUS), we quantified venous congestion on day 1 and day 3 of ICU admission. The primary feasibility outcome was successful completion rate of the two VEXUS scores. We performed a survival analysis to quantify the hazard of renal replacement therapy (RRT). RESULTS We enrolled 75 patients from January 2022 to January 2023. The success rate of completion for VEXUS scans was 94.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 89.5 to 97.6). Severe venous congestion was present in 19% (14/75) of patients on ICU admission day 1 and in 16% (10/61) of patients on day 3. Venous congestion on ICU admission may be associated with a higher risk of requiring RRT (unadjusted hazard ratio, 3.35; 95% CI, 0.94 to 11.88; P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS It is feasible to conduct a definitive observational study exploring the association between venous congestion quantified with POCUS and clinical outcomes in patients with septic shock. We hypothesize that venous congestion may be associated with an increased hazard of receiving RRT.

Abstract
Introduction Fluid resuscitation is a crucial intervention for the management of critically ill patients. However, after initial volume expansion, the advantages of fluid bolus administration remain controversial. Our aim was to investigate the probabilistic reasoning against fluid bolus administration in critically ill patients after initial volume expansion. We then applied this reasoning to two hypothetical case studies that evaluated the benefits and risks associated with a fluid bolus for each patient. Methods We analyzed data from 12 previously published studies, totaling 334 patients, on fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients. Owing to differences in these studies, we used a Monte Carlo simulation based on their parameters to improve our Bayesian prior, generate strong estimates, and address uncertainty. Using the established Bayesian prior for volume responsiveness, we scrutinized two hypothetical case studies employing Bayesian mathematical notation to assess the pre-test probability, posterior probability, and likelihood ratios in patients with septic shock. Results The Monte Carlo simulation yielded a mean response rate of 0.54 (SD = 0.026), suggesting that only approximately 54% of patients were responsive to fluid bolus administration. These results had an effective sample size of 17,204 and an R-hat value of 1, demonstrating the reliability of our results. In our Bayesian case studies, we demonstrate the low probabilities of volume and VO2 responsiveness over time using common bedside testing. Conclusion Our analysis shows that the pretest and posttest probabilities for volume responsiveness following initial fluid resuscitation are low. Additional bedside testing should be pursued before administering additional volume. This approach emphasizes the importance of evidence-based decision-making in the management of critically ill patients to optimize patient outcomes and minimize potential risks.

Abstract
Serum renin increases in response to sympathetic nerve activation and hypotension. Recent studies have reported the association of serum renin levels with adverse clinical outcomes in acute care settings. This scoping review aimed to systematically review the available literature on renin as a prognostic marker in intensive care and perioperative patients. We searched for studies published since inception until March 31, 2023, which assessed the association between serum renin levels and clinical outcomes or the effect of synthetic angiotensin II administration on serum renin levels in critically ill and perioperative patients in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. The primary outcome was mortality at the longest follow-up; the secondary outcomes were adverse renal outcomes (ie, acute kidney injury, the need for renal replacement therapy, and major adverse kidney events), hemodynamic instability, outcomes to angiotensin II administration, and prognostic performance for mortality when compared with lactate. Among the 2081 studies identified, we included 16 studies with 1573 patients (7 studies on shock, 5 on nonspecific critical illness, 2 on cardiac surgery, 1 on noncardiac surgery, and 1 on coronavirus disease 2019). A significant association between serum renin levels and poor outcomes was identified in 14 studies, with 10 studies demonstrating an association with mortality. One post hoc analysis found that angiotensin II administration reduced mortality in patients with markedly elevated renin values. Two studies showed that renin was superior to lactate as a prognostic marker of mortality. Our scoping review showed that elevated serum renin levels may be associated with clinically relevant outcomes among various perioperative and intensive care populations. Increased serum renin levels may identify patients in which synthetic angiotensin II administration improves clinical outcomes and may outperform serum lactate in predicting mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged capillary refill time (CRT) is an indicator of poor peripheral perfusion. The aim of the systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the association of prolonged CRT and mortality of critically ill patients. METHODS To achieve the objective of this meta-analysis, we conducted a thorough search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and the Web of Science to identify relevant observational studies with longitudinal follow-up. The Cochrane Q test was utilized to assess between-study heterogeneity, and the I2 statistic was calculated to estimate the degree of heterogeneity. We employed random-effects models to combine the outcomes, considering the potential influence of heterogeneity. RESULTS Eleven studies, encompassing 11,659 critically ill patients were included. During follow-up durations within hospitalization to 3 months, 1247 (10.7%) patients died. The pooled results indicated that a prolonged CRT at early phase of admission was significantly associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality (risk ratio [RR]: 1.73, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.39 to 2.16, p < 0.001; I2 = 60%). Subgroup analyses showed that the association was not significantly modified by study design (prospective or retrospective), etiology of diseases (infection, non-infection, or mixed), or cutoff of CRT (>3 s, 3.5 s, or 4 s). The association between CRT and mortality was weaker in studies with multivariate analysis (RR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.27 to 1.60, p < 0.001; I2 = 0%) as compared to that derived from studies of univariate analysis (RR: 6.27, 95% CI: 3.29 to 11.97, p < 0.001; I2 = 0%). CONCLUSIONS Prolonged CRT at admission may be a predictor of increased short-term mortality of critically ill patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to verify whether any parameter among those used as the target for haemodynamic optimisation (e.g., mean arterial pressure, central venous oxygen saturation, systolic or diastolic dysfunction, CO2 gap, lactates, right ventricular dysfunction, and PvaCO2/CavO2 ratio) is correlated with mortality in an undifferentiated population with sepsis or septic shock. METHODS An umbrella review, searching MEDLINE, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Health Technology Assessment Database, and the JBI Database of Systematic Reviews and Implementation Reports, was performed. We included systematic reviews and meta-analyses enrolling a population of unselected patients with sepsis or septic shock. The main outcome was mortality. Two authors conducted data extraction and risk-of-bias assessments independently. We used a random-effects model to pool binary and continuous data and summarised estimates of effect using equivalent odds ratios (eORs). We used the ROBIS tool to assess risk of bias and the assessment of multiple systematic reviews 2 score to assess global quality. DATA SYNTHESIS 17 systematic reviews and meta-analyses (15 828 patients) were included in the quantitative analysis. Diastolic dysfunction (eOR: 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.14-1.76), PvaCO2/CavO2 ratio (eOR: 2.15; 95% CI: 1.37-3.37), and CO2 gap (eOR: 1.86; 95% CI: 1.07-3.25) showed a significant correlation with mortality. Lactates were the parameter with highest inconsistency (I2 = 92%). Central venous oxygen saturation and right ventricle dysfunction showed significant statistical excess test of significance (p-value = 0.009 and 0.005, respectively). None of the considered parameters showed statistically significant publication bias. CONCLUSIONS According to this umbrella review, diastolic dysfunction is the haemodynamic variable that is most closely linked to the prognosis of septic patients. The PvaCO2/CavO2 ratio and the CO2gap are significantly related to the mortality of septic patients, but the poor quality of evidence or the low number of cases, studied so far, limit their clinical applicability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin mottling is a common manifestation of peripheral tissue hypoperfusion, and its severity can be described using the skin mottling score (SMS). This study aims to evaluate the value of the SMS in detecting peripheral tissue hypoperfusion in critically ill patients following cardiac surgery. METHODS Critically ill patients following cardiac surgery with risk factors for tissue hypoperfusion were enrolled (n = 373). Among these overall patients, we further defined a hypotension population (n = 178) and a shock population (n = 51). Hemodynamic and perfusion parameters were recorded. The primary outcome was peripheral hypoperfusion, defined as significant prolonged capillary refill time (CRT, > 3.0 s). The characteristics and hospital mortality of patients with and without skin mottling were compared. The area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROC) were used to assess the accuracy of SMS in detecting peripheral hypoperfusion. Besides, the relationships between SMS and conventional hemodynamic and perfusion parameters were investigated, and the factors most associated with the presence of skin mottling were identified. RESULTS Of the 373-case overall population, 13 (3.5%) patients exhibited skin mottling, with SMS ranging from 1 to 5 (5, 1, 2, 2, and 3 cases, respectively). Patients with mottling had lower mean arterial pressure, higher vasopressor dose, less urine output (UO), higher CRT, lactate levels and hospital mortality (84.6% vs. 12.2%, p < 0.001). The occurrences of skin mottling were higher in hypotension population and shock population, reaching 5.6% and 15.7%, respectively. The AUROC for SMS to identify peripheral hypoperfusion was 0.64, 0.68, and 0.81 in the overall, hypotension, and shock populations, respectively. The optimal SMS threshold was 1, which corresponded to specificities of 98, 97 and 91 and sensitivities of 29, 38 and 67 in the three populations (overall, hypotension and shock). The correlation of UO, lactate, CRT and vasopressor dose with SMS was significant, among them, UO and CRT were identified as two major factors associated with the presence of skin mottling. CONCLUSION In critically ill patients following cardiac surgery, SMS is a very specific yet less sensitive parameter for detecting peripheral tissue hypoperfusion.

Abstract
Importance Recent sepsis trials suggest that fluid-liberal vs fluid-restrictive resuscitation has similar outcomes. These trials used generalized approaches to resuscitation, and little is known about how clinicians personalize fluid and vasopressor administration in practice. Objective To understand how clinicians personalize decisions about resuscitation in practice. Design, Setting, and Participants This survey study of US clinicians in the Society of Critical Care Medicine membership roster was conducted from November 2022 to January 2023. Surveys contained 10 vignettes of patients with sepsis where pertinent clinical factors (eg, fluid received and volume status) were randomized. Respondents selected the next steps in management. Data analysis was conducted from February to September 2023. Exposure Online Qualtrics clinical vignette survey. Main Outcomes and Measures Using multivariable logistic regression, the associations of clinical factors with decisions about fluid administration, vasopressor initiation, and vasopressor route were tested. Results are presented as adjusted proportions with 95% CIs. Results Among 11 203 invited clinicians, 550 (4.9%; 261 men [47.5%] and 192 women [34.9%]; 173 with >15 years of practice [31.5%]) completed at least 1 vignette and were included. A majority were physicians (337 respondents [61.3%]) and critical care trained (369 respondents [67.1%]). Fluid volume already received by a patient was associated with resuscitation decisions. After 1 L of fluid, an adjusted 82.5% (95% CI, 80.2%-84.8%) of respondents prescribed additional fluid and an adjusted 55.0% (95% CI, 51.9%-58.1%) initiated vasopressors. After 5 L of fluid, an adjusted 17.5% (95% CI, 15.1%-19.9%) of respondents prescribed more fluid while an adjusted 92.7% (95% CI, 91.1%-94.3%) initiated vasopressors. More respondents prescribed fluid when the patient examination found dry vs wet (ie, overloaded) volume status (adjusted proportion, 66.9% [95% CI, 62.5%-71.2%] vs adjusted proportion, 26.5% [95% CI, 22.3%-30.6%]). Medical history, respiratory status, lactate trend, and acute kidney injury had small associations with fluid and vasopressor decisions. In 1023 of 1127 vignettes (90.8%) where the patient did not have central access, respondents were willing to start vasopressors through a peripheral intravenous catheter. In cases where patients were already receiving peripheral norepinephrine, respondents were more likely to place a central line at higher norepinephrine doses of 0.5 µg/kg/min (adjusted proportion, 78.0%; 95% CI, 74.7%-81.2%) vs 0.08 µg/kg/min (adjusted proportion, 25.2%; 95% CI, 21.8%-28.5%) and after 24 hours (adjusted proportion, 59.5%; 95% CI, 56.6%-62.5%) vs 8 hours (adjusted proportion, 47.1%; 95% CI, 44.0%-50.1%). Conclusions and Relevance These findings suggest that fluid volume received is the predominant factor associated with ongoing fluid and vasopressor decisions, outweighing many other clinical factors. Peripheral vasopressor use is common. Future studies aimed at personalizing resuscitation must account for fluid volumes and should incorporate specific tools to help clinicians personalize resuscitation.

Capillary refill time response to a fluid challenge or a vasopressor test: an observational, proof-of-concept study. Ann Intensive Care 2024; 14:49. [PMID: 38558268 PMCID: PMC10984906 DOI: 10.1186/s13613-024-01275-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have validated capillary refill time (CRT) as a marker of tissue hypoperfusion, and recent guidelines recommend CRT monitoring during septic shock resuscitation. Therefore, it is relevant to further explore its kinetics of response to short-term hemodynamic interventions with fluids or vasopressors. A couple of previous studies explored the impact of a fluid bolus on CRT, but little is known about the impact of norepinephrine on CRT when aiming at a higher mean arterial pressure (MAP) target in septic shock. We designed this observational study to further evaluate the effect of a fluid challenge (FC) and a vasopressor test (VPT) on CRT in septic shock patients with abnormal CRT after initial resuscitation. Our purpose was to determine the effects of a FC in fluid-responsive patients, and of a VPT aimed at a higher MAP target in chronically hypertensive fluid-unresponsive patients on the direction and magnitude of CRT response. METHODS Thirty-four septic shock patients were included. Fluid responsiveness was assessed at baseline, and a FC (500 ml/30 mins) was administered in 9 fluid-responsive patients. A VPT was performed in 25 patients by increasing norepinephrine dose to reach a MAP to 80-85 mmHg for 30 min. Patients shared a multimodal perfusion and hemodynamic monitoring protocol with assessments at at least two time-points (baseline, and at the end of interventions). RESULTS CRT decreased significantly with both tests (from 5 [3.5-7.6] to 4 [2.4-5.1] sec, p = 0.008 after the FC; and from 4.0 [3.3-5.6] to 3 [2.6 -5] sec, p = 0.03 after the VPT. A CRT-response was observed in 7/9 patients after the FC, and in 14/25 pts after the VPT, but CRT deteriorated in 4 patients on this latter group, all of them receiving a concomitant low-dose vasopressin. CONCLUSIONS Our findings support that fluid boluses may improve CRT or produce neutral effects in fluid-responsive septic shock patients with persistent hypoperfusion. Conversely, raising NE doses to target a higher MAP in previously hypertensive patients elicits a more heterogeneous response, improving CRT in the majority, but deteriorating skin perfusion in some patients, a fact that deserves further research.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide consensus recommendations regarding hemodynamic data reporting in studies investigating fluid responsiveness and fluid challenge (FC) use in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS The Executive Committee of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) commissioned and supervised the project. A panel of 18 international experts and a methodologist identified main domains and items from a systematic literature, plus 2 ancillary domains. A three-step Delphi process based on an iterative approach was used to obtain the final consensus. In the Delphi 1 and 2, the items were selected with strong (≥ 80% of votes) or week agreement (70-80% of votes), while the Delphi 3 generated recommended (≥ 90% of votes) or suggested (80-90% of votes) items (RI and SI, respectively). RESULTS We identified 5 main domains initially including 117 items and the consensus finally resulted in 52 recommendations or suggestions: 18 RIs and 2 SIs statements were obtained for the domain "ICU admission", 11 RIs and 1 SI for the domain "mechanical ventilation", 5 RIs for the domain "reason for giving a FC", 8 RIs for the domain pre- and post-FC "hemodynamic data", and 7 RIs for the domain "pre-FC infused drugs". We had no consensus on the use of echocardiography, strong agreement regarding the volume (4 ml/kg) and the reference variable (cardiac output), while weak on administration rate (within 10 min) of FC in this setting. CONCLUSION This consensus found 5 main domains and provided 52 recommendations for data reporting in studies investigating fluid responsiveness in ICU patients.

Abstract
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) introduced the Severe Sepsis/Septic Shock Management Bundle (SEP-1) as a pay-for-reporting measure in 2015 and is now planning to make it a pay-for-performance measure by incorporating it into the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program. This joint IDSA/ACEP/PIDS/SHEA/SHM/SIPD position paper highlights concerns with this change. Multiple studies indicate that SEP-1 implementation was associated with increased broad-spectrum antibiotic use, lactate measurements, and aggressive fluid resuscitation for patients with suspected sepsis but not with decreased mortality rates. Increased focus on SEP-1 risks further diverting attention and resources from more effective measures and comprehensive sepsis care. We recommend retiring SEP-1 rather than using it in a payment model and shifting instead to new sepsis metrics that focus on patient outcomes. CMS is developing a community-onset sepsis 30-day mortality electronic clinical quality measure (eCQM) that is an important step in this direction. The eCQM preliminarily identifies sepsis using systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria, antibiotic administrations or diagnosis codes for infection or sepsis, and clinical indicators of acute organ dysfunction. We support the eCQM but recommend removing SIRS criteria and diagnosis codes to streamline implementation, decrease variability between hospitals, maintain vigilance for patients with sepsis but without SIRS, and avoid promoting antibiotic use in uninfected patients with SIRS. We further advocate for CMS to harmonize the eCQM with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Adult Sepsis Event surveillance metric to promote unity in federal measures, decrease reporting burden for hospitals, and facilitate shared prevention initiatives. These steps will result in a more robust measure that will encourage hospitals to pay more attention to the full breadth of sepsis care, stimulate new innovations in diagnosis and treatment, and ultimately bring us closer to our shared goal of improving outcomes for patients.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effect of timing of antimicrobial therapy on clinical progress of patients with septic shock. MATERIALS AND METHOD We included 204 adult patients diagnosed with septic shock according to Sepsis-3 criteria between March 2016 and April 2021. One-month survival was evaluated using univariate and logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Antibiotic treatment was initiated within 1 h of the vasopressors in 26.4 % of patients. One-month mortality did not differ significantly between patients with and without empirical therapy coverage on etiological agents. Univariate factors that significantly affected one-month survival were starting antibiotics at the first hour, the unit where the case was diagnosed with septic shock, SOFA scores, qSOFA scores, and lactate level. In multivariate analysis, diagnosis of septic shock in the Emergency Service, SOFA score ≥11, qSOFA score of three and lactate level ≥4 were significantly associated with one-month mortality. CONCLUSION Training programs should be designed to increase the awareness of septic shock diagnosis and treatment in the Emergency Service and other hospital units. Additionally, electronic patient files should have warning systems for earlier diagnosis and consultation.

Early post-operative lactate increase following kidney transplant is associated with delayed graft function: A retrospective cohort study. Clin Transplant 2024; 38:e15288.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delayed graft function (DGF) is a frequent complication following kidney transplant. This study aimed to assess the association between early post-operative lactate variation and DGF. METHODS This was a single center, retrospective cohort study between February 2021 and December 2022 in Saint-Louis Hospital (APHP, France). Venous lactate levels were measured immediately (H0) and 4 h (H4) after kidney transplant. The primary outcome was the occurrence of DGF (need for renal replacement therapy between transplantation and day 7). Secondary outcome was the occurrence of complications (i.e., death, vascular thrombosis, hemorrhagic shock, urological complications (hematoma, urinoma), local or systemic infection) between transplant and day 7. RESULTS Two hundred 12 patients were included, and 38 (17.9%) developed DGF. Venous lactate variation between H0 and H4 was higher in patients who developed DGF (-30 (IQR -83, -6)% vs. -15 (IQR -62, -11)%, p = .037), but the variation of level was more often positive (corresponding to an increased lactate production over time between H0 and H4) in patients who developed DGF ((28(85%) vs. 94(62%), p = .011). In multivariate logistic regression, positive venous lactate level variation between H0 and H4 was strongly associated with a reduced risk of developing DGF (OR .30 [.09-.79], p = .024). We did not find any association between post-operative hyperlactatemia and occurrence of complications between transplant and day 7. DISCUSSION DGF is a frequent complication following kidney transplantation. Its early prediction could help physicians optimize treatment and protect the kidney. Early venous lactate variation after kidney transplant could help to predict the occurrence of DGF.

Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2024; 209:517-528. [PMID: 38259196 DOI: 10.1164/rccm.202309-1617oc] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/22/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Sepsis management relies on fluid resuscitation avoiding fluid overload and its related organ congestion. Objectives: To explore the influence of country income group on risk-benefit balance of fluid management strategies in sepsis. Methods: We searched e-databases for all randomized controlled trials on fluid resuscitation in patients with sepsis or septic shock up to January 2023, excluding studies on hypertonic fluids, colloids, and depletion-based interventions. The effect of fluid strategies (higher versus lower volumes) on mortality was analyzed per income group (i.e., low- and middle-income countries [LMICs] or high-income countries [HICs]). Measurements and Main Results: Twenty-nine studies (11,798 patients) were included in the meta-analysis. There was a numerically higher mortality in studies of LMICs as compared with those of HICs: median, 37% (interquartile range [IQR]: 26-41) versus 29% (IQR: 17-38; P = 0.06). Income group significantly interacted with the effect of fluid volume on mortality: Higher fluid volume was associated with higher mortality in LMICs but not in HICs: odds ratio (OR), 1.47; 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.14-1.90 versus 1.00 (95% CI: 0.87-1.16), P = 0.01 for subgroup differences. Higher fluid volume was associated with increased need for mechanical ventilation in LMICs (OR, 1.24 [95% CI: 1.08-1.43]) but not in HICs (OR, 1.02 [95% CI: 0.80-1.29]). Self-reported access to mechanical ventilation also significantly influenced the effect of fluid volume on mortality, which increased with higher volumes only in settings with limited access to mechanical ventilation (OR: 1.45 [95% CI: 1.09-1.93] vs. 1.09 [95% CI: 0.93-1.28], P = 0.02 for subgroup differences). Conclusions: In sepsis trials, the effect of fluid resuscitation approach differed by setting, with higher volume of fluid resuscitation associated with increased mortality in LMICs and in settings with restricted access to mechanical ventilation. The precise reason for these differences is unclear and may be attributable in part to resource constraints, participant variation between trials, or other unmeasured factors.

Abstract
Hemodynamic coherence plays a critical role in the outcomes of septic shock. Due to the potential negative consequences of microcirculatory disorders on organ failure and clinical outcomes, the maintenance of a balance between the macrocirculation and microcirculation is a topic of significant research focus. Although physical methods and specialized imaging techniques are used in clinical practice to assess microcirculation, the use of monitoring devices is not widespread. The integration of microcirculation research tools into clinical practice poses a significant challenge for the future. Consequently, this review aims to evaluate the impact of septic shock on the microcirculation, the methods used to monitor the microcirculation and highlight the importance of microcirculation in the treatment of critically ill patients. In addition, it proposes an evaluation framework that integrates microcirculation monitoring with macrocirculatory parameters. The optimal approach should encompass dynamic, multiparametric, individualized, and continuous monitoring of both the macrocirculation and microcirculation, particularly in cases of hemodynamic separation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current recommendations support guiding fluid resuscitation through the assessment of fluid responsiveness. Recently, the concept of fluid tolerance and the prevention of venous congestion (VC) have emerged as relevant aspects to be considered to avoid potentially deleterious side effects of fluid resuscitation. However, there is paucity of data on the relationship of fluid responsiveness and VC. This study aims to compare the prevalence of venous congestion in fluid responsive and fluid unresponsive critically ill patients after intensive care (ICU) admission. METHODS Multicenter, prospective cross-sectional observational study conducted in three medical-surgical ICUs in Chile. Consecutive mechanically ventilated patients that required vasopressors and admitted < 24 h to ICU were included between November 2022 and June 2023. Patients were assessed simultaneously for fluid responsiveness and VC at a single timepoint. Fluid responsiveness status, VC signals such as central venous pressure, estimation of left ventricular filling pressures, lung, and abdominal ultrasound congestion indexes and relevant clinical data were collected. RESULTS Ninety patients were included. Median age was 63 [45-71] years old, and median SOFA score was 9 [7-11]. Thirty-eight percent of the patients were fluid responsive (FR+), while 62% were fluid unresponsive (FR-). The most prevalent diagnosis was sepsis (41%) followed by respiratory failure (22%). The prevalence of at least one VC signal was not significantly different between FR+ and FR- groups (53% vs. 57%, p = 0.69), as well as the proportion of patients with 2 or 3 VC signals (15% vs. 21%, p = 0.4). We found no association between fluid balance, CRT status, or diagnostic group and the presence of VC signals. CONCLUSIONS Venous congestion signals were prevalent in both fluid responsive and unresponsive critically ill patients. The presence of venous congestion was not associated with fluid balance or diagnostic group. Further studies should assess the clinical relevance of these results and their potential impact on resuscitation and monitoring practices.

Zhu B, Zhou R, Qin J, Li Y. Hierarchical Capability in Distinguishing Severities of Sepsis via Serum Lactate: A Network Meta-Analysis. Biomedicines 2024; 12:447. [PMID: 38398049 PMCID: PMC10886935 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12020447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2024] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/01/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Blood lactate is a potentially useful biomarker to predict the mortality and severity of sepsis. The purpose of this study is to systematically review the ability of lactate to predict hierarchical sepsis clinical outcomes and distinguish sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock. Methods: We conducted an exhaustive search of the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library databases for studies published before 1 October 2022. Inclusion criteria mandated the presence of case-control, cohort studies and randomized controlled trials that established the association between before-treatment blood lactate levels and the mortality of individuals with sepsis, severe sepsis or septic shock. Data was analyzed using STATA Version 16.0. Results: A total of 127 studies, encompassing 107,445 patients, were ultimately incorporated into our analysis. Meta-analysis of blood lactate levels at varying thresholds revealed a statistically significant elevation in blood lactate levels predicting mortality (OR = 1.57, 95% CI 1.48-1.65, I2 = 92.8%, p < 0.00001). Blood lactate levels were significantly higher in non-survivors compared to survivors in sepsis patients (SMD = 0.77, 95% CI 0.74-0.79, I2 = 83.7%, p = 0.000). The prognostic utility of blood lactate in sepsis mortality was validated through hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic curve (HSROC) analysis, yielding an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.72 (95% CI 0.68-0.76), accompanied by a summary sensitivity of 0.65 (95% CI 0.59-0.7) and a summary specificity of 0.7 (95% CI 0.64-0.75). Unfortunately, the network meta-analysis could not identify any significant differences in average blood lactate values' assessments among sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock patients. Conclusions: This meta-analysis demonstrated that high-level blood lactate was associated with a higher risk of sepsis mortality. Lactate has a relatively accurate predictive ability for the mortality risk of sepsis. However, the network analysis found that the levels of blood lactate were not effective in distinguishing between patients with sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock.

Albumin versus saline infusion for sepsis-related peripheral tissue hypoperfusion: a proof-of-concept prospective study. Crit Care 2024; 28:43. [PMID: 38326920 PMCID: PMC10848485 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-024-04827-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Albumin has potential endothelial protective effects through antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the effect of albumin on peripheral tissue perfusion in human sepsis remains poorly known. METHODS Bi-centric prospective study included patients with sepsis with or without shock and prolonged CRT > 3 s despite initial resuscitation. Clinicians in charge of the patients were free to infuse either saline 500 mL or human serum albumin 20% 100 mL over 15 min. Global hemodynamic parameters as well as peripheral tissue perfusion were analyzed after 1 (H1) and 4 h (H4). The primary endpoint was CRT normalization (< 3 s) at H1. RESULTS 62 patients were screened, and 50 patients (13 sepsis and 37 septic shock) were included, 21 in the saline group and 29 in the albumin group. SOFA score was 8 [5-11], and SAPS II was 53 [45-70]. Median age was 68 [60-76] years with a higher proportion of men (74%). The primary sources of infection were respiratory (54%) and abdominal (24%). At baseline, comorbidities, clinical and biological characteristics were similar between groups. At H1, CRT normalization (< 3 s) was more frequent in patients receiving albumin as compared to patients treated by saline (63 vs 29%, P = 0.02). The decrease in fingertip CRT was more important in the albumin group when compared to saline group (- 1.0 [- 0.3; - 1.5] vs - 0.2 [- 0.1; - 1.1] seconds, P = 0.04) as well as decrease in mottling score. At H4, beneficial effects of albumin on peripheral tissue perfusion were maintained and urinary output trended to be higher in the albumin group (1.1 [0.5-1.8] vs 0.7 [0.5-0.9] ml/kg/h, P = 0.08). Finally, arterial lactate level did not significantly change between H0 and H4 in the saline group but significantly decreased in the albumin group (P = 0.03). CONCLUSION In patients with resuscitated sepsis, albumin infusion might lead to greater improvement of tissue hypoperfusion compared to saline. CLINICALTRIALS gov Identifier: NCT05094856.

Abstract
Sepsis and septic shock are associated with high mortality, with diagnosis and treatment remaining a challenge for clinicians. Their management classically encompasses hemodynamic resuscitation, antibiotic treatment, life support, and focus control; however, there are aspects that have changed. This narrative review highlights current and avant-garde methods of handling patients experiencing septic shock based on the experience of its authors and the best available evidence in a context of uncertainty. Following the first recommendation of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines, it is recommended that specific sepsis care performance improvement programs are implemented in hospitals, i.e., "Sepsis Code" programs, designed ad hoc, to achieve this goal. Regarding hemodynamics, the importance of perfusion and hemodynamic coherence stand out, which allow for the recognition of different phenotypes, determination of the ideal time for commencing vasopressor treatment, and the appropriate fluid therapy dosage. At present, this is not only important for the initial timing, but also for de-resuscitation, which involves the early weaning of support therapies, directed elimination of fluids, and fluid tolerance concept. Finally, regarding blood purification therapies, those aimed at eliminating endotoxins and cytokines are attractive in the early management of patients in septic shock.

Abstract
Septic shock is a highly lethal and prevalent disease. Progressive circulatory dysfunction leads to tissue hypoperfusion and hypoxia, eventually evolving to multiorgan dysfunction and death. Prompt resuscitation may revert these pathogenic mechanisms, restoring oxygen delivery and organ function. High heterogeneity exists among the determinants of circulatory dysfunction in septic shock, and current algorithms provide a stepwise and standardized approach to conduct resuscitation. This review provides the pathophysiological and clinical rationale behind ANDROMEDA-SHOCK-2, an ongoing multicenter randomized controlled trial that aims to compare a personalized resuscitation strategy based on clinical phenotyping and peripheral perfusion assessment, versus standard of care, in early septic shock resuscitation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify research priorities in the management, epidemiology, outcome, and pathophysiology of sepsis and septic shock. DESIGN Shortly after publication of the most recent Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines, the Surviving Sepsis Research Committee, a multiprofessional group of 16 international experts representing the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine and the Society of Critical Care Medicine, convened virtually and iteratively developed the article and recommendations, which represents an update from the 2018 Surviving Sepsis Campaign Research Priorities. METHODS Each task force member submitted five research questions on any sepsis-related subject. Committee members then independently ranked their top three priorities from the list generated. The highest rated clinical and basic science questions were developed into the current article. RESULTS A total of 81 questions were submitted. After merging similar questions, there were 34 clinical and ten basic science research questions submitted for voting. The five top clinical priorities were as follows: 1) what is the best strategy for screening and identification of patients with sepsis, and can predictive modeling assist in real-time recognition of sepsis? 2) what causes organ injury and dysfunction in sepsis, how should it be defined, and how can it be detected? 3) how should fluid resuscitation be individualized initially and beyond? 4) what is the best vasopressor approach for treating the different phases of septic shock? and 5) can a personalized/precision medicine approach identify optimal therapies to improve patient outcomes? The five top basic science priorities were as follows: 1) How can we improve animal models so that they more closely resemble sepsis in humans? 2) What outcome variables maximize correlations between human sepsis and animal models and are therefore most appropriate to use in both? 3) How does sepsis affect the brain, and how do sepsis-induced brain alterations contribute to organ dysfunction? How does sepsis affect interactions between neural, endocrine, and immune systems? 4) How does the microbiome affect sepsis pathobiology? 5) How do genetics and epigenetics influence the development of sepsis, the course of sepsis and the response to treatments for sepsis? CONCLUSIONS Knowledge advances in multiple clinical domains have been incorporated in progressive iterations of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign guidelines, allowing for evidence-based recommendations for short- and long-term management of sepsis. However, the strength of existing evidence is modest with significant knowledge gaps and mortality from sepsis remains high. The priorities identified represent a roadmap for research in sepsis and septic shock.

Abstract
Microvascular dysfunction and inflammation caused by COVID-19 disrupt organ function. The study aimed to investigate the association between the severity of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia and peripheral and organ perfusion as a consequence of altered microcirculation. A total of 116 patients hospitalized due to severe COVID-19 were enrolled in the study. On admission, the patients underwent a Capillary Refill Time (CRT) examination, finger oxygen saturation measurement, thermal imaging of the hand (FIT), and a kidney Doppler ultrasound. Medical data were collected from the medical history. From the evaluated perfusion parameters, only renal cortex perfusion (RCP) was substantially correlated with the CT score (p < 0.010). The peripheral perfusion parameters of Sat., FIT, CRT, and RCP correlated with the ARDS stages (p = 0.0021; p = 0.038; p < 0.0006; p < 0.0002, respectively). The Oxygenation Ratio value (p < 0.001) was significantly associated with all the perfusion parameters (saturation, CRT, FIT, and RCP) in the multivariable regression analysis model. According to the stepwise retrograde regression analysis, RCP was an independent parameter linked with the Oxygenation Ratio (p < 0.001). Severe COVID-19 can result in microvascular dysfunction influencing peripheral and organ perfusion, which can be measured with various methods. The staging of COVID-19 assessed by CT and the Oxygenation Ratio correlates with RCP, CRT, FIT, and oxygen saturation.

Abstract
Skin mottling has been found to be useful as a marker of peripheral hypoperfusion in shock in studies performed on fair-skinned patients. Whether skin mottling may be less apparent in dark-skinned patients, thus limiting its value in this patient population has not been studied. Jog et al. have performed an elegant study addressing this question, which is important and especially relevant to the Indian situation. They found that mottling is not easily visible in dark-skinned Indian patients, and when it becomes apparent, it is associated with a very high mortality. This study also throws up some areas for future research, including interobserver variability in the detection of mottling, and the hemodynamic and microcirculatory parameters associated with the appearance of mottling. Based on this study, the utility of skin mottling as a tool to guide hemodynamic management in severe septic shock in dark-skinned Indian patients is questionable.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study in children with septic shock: 1) variation in peripheral perfusion index (PI), which is a derived variable from pulse oximetry; 2) correlation between PI and lactate concentration; and 3) exploratory diagnostic evaluation between mortality and PI. DESIGN Prospective observational study (from October 2018 to March 2020). SETTING Pediatric emergency department and PICU of a tertiary hospital in India. PATIENTS Children (1 mo to 16 yr old) with septic shock. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Data collected included demographic, clinical, laboratory, and outcome-related variables. Hemodynamic variables like heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and PI, along with serum lactate were recorded at specified intervals. A total of 112 children with septic shock were recruited, with median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of 50 (IQR 12,118.5) months and 65 of 112 (58%) were male children. Overall mortality was 25 of 112 (22%). At admission, the median PI was 0.6 (IQR -0.30, 0.93), and we used PI less than or equal to 0.6 to define a "critical PI." Of 61 children with critical PI at admission, 26 of 61 increased above this threshold by 6 hours. We observed a negative correlation between PI and lactate, at admission ( r = -0.27; 95% CI, -0.44 to -0.08; p = 0.006) and at 6 hours ( r = -0.21; 95% CI, -0.39 to -0.02; p = 0.03). In the exploratory analysis, a PI cutoff of less than or equal to 0.6 at 6 hours had area under the receiver operating curve of 0.74 (95% CI, 0.60-0.88). That is, with a 70% sensitivity and 81% specificity for mortality, the performance of such a test in our population (pre-to-post-test probability) for mortality would be 0.22-0.51. CONCLUSIONS We have used pulse oximetry-derived PI in children presenting with septic shock and found that the value is negatively correlated with a rise in serum lactate concentration. However, the utility of using a critical threshold value in PI (≤ 0.6) after 6 hours of treatment to be indicative of later mortality has considerable uncertainty.

Abstract
The time to administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics and (secondarily) to the initiation of hemodynamic stabilization are the most important factors influencing survival of patients with sepsis and septic shock; however, the basic prerequisite for the initiation of an adequate treatment is that a suspected diagnosis of sepsis is made first. Therefore, the treatment of sepsis, even before it has begun, is an interdisciplinary and interprofessional task. This article provides an overview of the current state of the art in sepsis treatment and points towards new evidence that has the potential to change guideline recommendations in the coming years. In summary, the following points are critical: (1) sepsis must be diagnosed as soon as possible and the implementation of a source control intervention (in case of a controllable source) has to be implemented as soon as (logistically) possible. (2) In general, intravenous broad-spectrum antibiotics should be given within the first hour after diagnosis if sepsis or septic shock is suspected. In organ dysfunction without shock, where sepsis is a possible but unlikely cause, the results of focused advanced diagnostics should be awaited before a decision to give broad-spectrum antibiotics is made. If it is not clear within 3 h whether sepsis is the cause, broad-spectrum antibiotics should be given when in doubt. Administer beta-lactam antibiotics as a prolonged (or if therapeutic drug monitoring is available, continuous) infusion after an initial loading dose. (3) Combination treatment with two agents for one pathogen group should remain the exception (e.g. multidrug-resistant gram-negative pathogens). (4) In the case of doubt, the duration of anti-infective treatment should rather be shorter than longer. Procalcitonin can support the clinical decision to stop (not to start!) antibiotic treatment! (5) For fluid treatment, if hypoperfusion is present, the first (approximately) 2L (30 ml/kg BW) of crystalloid solution is usually safe and indicated. After that, the rule is: less is more! Any further fluid administration should be carefully weighed up with the help of dynamic parameters, the patient's clinical condition and echo(cardio)graphy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Acute circulatory failure leads to tissue hypoperfusion. Capillary refill time (CRT) has been widely studied, but its predictive value remains debated. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the ability of CRT to predict death or adverse events in a context at risk or confirmed acute circulatory failure in adults. METHOD MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Google scholar databases were screened for relevant studies. The pooled area under the ROC curve (AUC ROC), sensitivity, specificity, threshold, and diagnostic odds ratio using a random-effects model were determined. The primary analysis was the ability of abnormal CRT to predict death in patients with acute circulatory failure. Secondary analysis included the ability of CRT to predict death or adverse events in patients at risk or with confirmed acute circulatory failure, the comparison with lactate, and the identification of explanatory factors associated with better accuracy. RESULTS A total of 60,656 patients in 23 studies were included. Concerning the primary analysis, the pooled AUC ROC of 13 studies was 0.66 (95%CI [0.59; 0.76]), and pooled sensitivity was 54% (95%CI [43; 64]). The pooled specificity was 72% (95%CI [55; 84]). The pooled diagnostic odds ratio was 3.4 (95%CI [1.4; 8.3]). Concerning the secondary analysis, the pooled AUC ROC of 23 studies was 0.69 (95%CI [0.65; 0.74]). The prognostic value of CRT compared to lactate was not significantly different. High-quality CRT was associated with a greater accuracy. CONCLUSION CRT poorly predicted death and adverse events in patients at risk or established acute circulatory failure. Its accuracy is greater when high-quality CRT measurement is performed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the diagnostic performance of the clinical evaluation of peripheral tissue perfusion in the prediction of mortality. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING Intensive care unit. PATIENTS AND PARTICIPANTS Patients with sepsis and septic shock. INTERVENTIONS Studies of patients with sepsis and/or septic shock that associated clinical monitoring of tissue perfusion with mortality were included. A systematic review was performed by searching the PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, and OVID databases. MAIN VARIABLES OF INTEREST The risk of bias was assessed with the QUADAS-2 tool. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated to evaluate the predictive accuracy for mortality. Review Manager software version 5.4 was used to draw the forest plot graphs, and Stata version 15.1 was used to build the hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic model. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included, with a total of 1667 patients and 17 analyses. Two articles evaluated the temperature gradient, four evaluated the capillary refill time, and seven evaluated the mottling in the skin. In most studies, the outcome was mortality at 14 or 28 days. The pooled sensitivity of the included studies was 70%, specificity 75.9% (95% CI, 61.6%-86.2%), diagnostic odds ratio 7.41 (95% CI, 3.91-14.04), and positive and negative likelihood ratios 2.91 (95% CI, 1.80-4.72) and 0.39 (95% CI, 0.30-0.51), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Clinical evaluation of tissue perfusion at the bedside is a useful tool, with moderate sensitivity and specificity, to identify patients with a higher risk of death among those with sepsis and septic shock.

Abstract
The Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) International Guidelines for the Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock provide recommendations on the care of hospitalized adult patients with (or at risk for) sepsis. This review discusses what is new or different in the 2021 SSC adult sepsis guidelines compared to 2016. The guidelines include new weak recommendations for use of balanced fluid over saline 0.9%, use of intravenous corticosteroids for septic shock when there is ongoing vasopressor requirement, and peripheral initiation of intravenous vasopressors over delaying initiation in order to obtain central venous access. As before, there is a strong recommendation to initiate antimicrobials within 1 h of sepsis and septic shock, but there are now additional recommendations when the diagnosis is uncertain. The recommendation for initial fluid resuscitation in septic shock of 30 mL/kg crystalloid has been downgraded from strong to weak. Finally, there are 12 new recommendations addressing long-term outcomes from sepsis, including strong recommendations to screen for economic and social support and to make referrals for follow-up where available; use shared decision-making in post-intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital discharge planning; reconcile medications at both ICU and hospital discharge; provide information about sepsis and its sequelae in written and verbal hospital discharge summary; and to provide assessment and follow-up for physical, cognitive, and emotional problems after hospital discharge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the effects of low-dose furosemide and aminophylline on the renal function in patients with septic shock. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 109 eligible septic shock patients in the intensive care unit were randomly divided into a control group (n = 55) and an intervention group (n = 54). The control group received normal saline, and the intervention group received low-dose furosemide (0.048 mg/kg.h-1) with aminophylline (0.3 mg/kg.h-1). The primary outcomes included the levels of serum creatinine (Scr), creatinine clearance rate (Ccr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and urine output on admission and on days 3, 7 and 14. The secondary outcomes were the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) time and intensive care unit (ICU) mortality, hospital mortality and 28-day mortality. There were no significant differences in the levels of Scr, Ccr, BUN, or GFR between the two groups, while the urine output was higher in the intervention group on days 3, 7, and 14. Compared with the control group, the SOFA scores, ICU mortality, hospital mortality and 28-day mortality were significantly lower in the intervention group on days 3, 7, and 14, the CRRT time was shorter, and the cumulative fluid balance was lower on days 3 and 7 in the intervention group. CONCLUSIONS Although low-dose furosemide and aminophylline have fewer protective effects on the renal function in septic shock patients, they could reduce the CRRT time and improve the prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Capillary refill time (CRT) has been suggested as a variable to follow during the course of septic shock. We systematically investigated the effects on CRT of volume expansion and norepinephrine. METHODS In 69 septic shock patients, we recorded mean arterial pressure (MAP), cardiac index (CI), and 5 consecutive CRT measurements (video method, standardized pressure applied on the fingertip) before and after a 500-mL saline infusion in 33 patients and before and after an increase of the norepinephrine dose in 36 different patients. Fluid responders were defined by an increase in CI ≥ 15%, and norepinephrine responders by an increase in MAP ≥ 15%. RESULTS The least significant change of CRT was 23%, so that changes in CRT were considered significant if larger than 23%. With volume expansion, CRT remained unchanged on average in patients with baseline CRT < 3 s (n = 7) and in all but one patient with baseline CRT ≥ 3 s in whom fluid increased CI < 15% (n = 13 "fluid non-responders"). In fluid responders with baseline CRT ≥ 3 s (n = 13), CRT decreased in 8 patients and remained unchanged in the others, exhibiting a dissociation between CI and CRT responses. The proportion of patients included > 24 h after starting norepinephrine was higher in patients with such a dissociation than in the other ones (60% vs. 0%, respectively). Norepinephrine did not change CRT significantly (except in one patient) if baseline CRT was ≥ 3 s and the increase in MAP < 15% (n = 6). In norepinephrine responders with prolonged baseline CRT (n = 11), it increased in 4 patients and remained unchanged in the other ones, which exhibited a dissociation between MAP and CRT responses. CONCLUSIONS In septic shock patients with prolonged CRT, CRT very rarely improves with treatment when volume expansion increases cardiac output < 15% and increasing norepinephrine increases MAP < 15%. When the effects of fluid infusion on cardiac output and of norepinephrine on MAP are significant, the response of CRT is variable, as it decreases in some patients and remains stable in others which exhibit a dissociation between changes in macrohemodynamic variables and in CRT. In this regard, CRT behaves as a marker of microcirculation. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrial.gov (NCT04870892). Registered January15, 2021. Ethics committee approval CE SRLF 21-25.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a common disease in the intensive care units (ICUs) with high risk of mortality. The red cell distribution width (RDW) is one of baseline ICU indicators which can be easily available, and has been used in the long-term prognostic analyses of diseases. However, no studies have explored the role of baseline RDW and its change during hospitalization in in-hospital mortality in ARF. Herein, this study aims to explore the association between RDW and its changes and the 30-day mortality in ARF patients. METHODS Demographic and clinical data of 7,497 patients with ARF were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database in 2012-2019 in this retrospective cohort study. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to explore the association between RDW and its changes and 30-day mortality with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses of different baseline RDW levels were also performed. We then assessed the predictive performance of RDW changes combined with the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score on 30-day mortality using receiver operator characteristic curves (ROCs) with areas under curve (AUCs). RESULTS Totally, 2,254 (30.07%) patients died in 30 days. After adjusting for covariates, we found that high baseline RDW [HR = 1.25, 95%CI: (1.15-1.37)] and RDW changes ≥0.3% [HR = 1.12, 95%CI: (1.01-1.24)] were both related to an increased risk of 30-day mortality. In patients whose baseline RDW level ≥14.9%, RDW changes ≥0.3% was also associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality [HR = 1.19, 95%CI: (1.05-1.35)]. Moreover, the predictive value of RDW changes combined with SOFA on 30-day mortality was a little better than that of single SOFA score, with AUCs of 0.624 vs. 0.620. CONCLUSION High baseline RDW level and its changes during hospitalization was relate to the increased risk of 30-day mortality in ARF, and the predictive value of RDW changes for ARF short-term mortality is still needed exploration.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative monitoring of circulation and respiration is pivotal to guide intervention strategies and ensure patient outcomes. Transcutaneous blood gas monitoring (TCM) may allow for noninvasive assessment of changes in cardiopulmonary function after surgery, including a more direct assessment of local micro-perfusion and metabolism. To form the basis for studies assessing the clinical impact of TCM complication detection and goal-directed-therapy, we examined the association between clinical interventions in the postoperative period and changes in transcutaneous blood gasses. METHODS Two-hundred adult patients who have had major surgery were enrolled prospectively and monitored with transcutaneous blood gas measurements (oxygen (TcPO2) and carbon dioxide (TcPCO2)) for 2 h in the post anaesthesia care unit, with recording of all clinical interventions. The primary outcome was changes in TcPO2, secondarily TcPCO2, from 5 min before a clinical intervention versus 5 min after, analysed with paired t-test. RESULTS Data from 190 patients with 686 interventions were analysed. During clinical interventions, a mean change in TcPO2 of 0.99 mmHg (95% CI-1.79-0.2, p = 0.015) and TcPCO2 of-0.67 mmHg (95% CI 0.36-0.98, p < 0.001) was detected. CONCLUSION Clinical interventions resulted in significant changes in transcutaneous oxygen and carbon dioxide. These findings suggest future studies to assess the clinical value of changes in transcutaneous PO2 and PCO2 in a postoperative setting. TRIAL REGISTRY Clinical trial number: NCT04735380.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Mean arterial hypotension between 55 and 65 mm Hg could be tolerated safely in the absence of tissue hypoperfusion, but the consequences on fluid balance and kidney function remain unknown. DESIGN During a 1-year period, we retrospectively collected data of consecutive septic patients admitted for sepsis with a mean arterial pressure (MAP) less than 65 mm Hg despite fluid resuscitation. SETTING Medical 18-bed ICU in a tertiary teaching hospital. PATIENTS Septic patients with a MAP less than 65 mm Hg despite initial resuscitation. INTERVENTIONS In our ICU, MAP between 55 and 65 mm Hg was tolerated in the absence of peripheral hypoperfusion (permissive hypotension) or corrected using norepinephrine (septic shock group) when peripheral tissue hypoperfusion was present. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Ninety-four consecutive septic patients were included, 15 in the permissive hypotension group and 79 in the septic shock group. Median age was 66 years (57-77 yr) and 42% were women. The main sources of infection were respiratory (45%) and abdominal (18%). Severity was more important in septic shock group with higher Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (7 [5-10] vs. 4 [1-6]; p < 0.0001), more frequent organ support therapy and ultimately higher mortality (38 vs. 0%; p < 0.01). The total volume of crystalloids infused before ICU admission was not different between groups (1930 ± 250 vs. 1850 ± 150 mL; p = 0.40). Within the 6 first hours of ICU stay, patients in the permissive hypotension group received less fluids (530 ± 170 vs. 1100 ± 110 mL; p = 0.03) and had higher urinary output (1.4 mL [0.88-2.34 mL] vs. 0.47 mL/kg/hr [0.08-1.25 mL/kg/hr]; p < 0.001). In addition, kidney injury evaluated using KDIGO score was lower in the permissive hypotension group at 48 hours (0 hr [0-1 hr] vs. 1 hr [0-2 hr]; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In septic patients without clinical peripheral hypoperfusion, mean arterial hypotension between 55 and 65 mm Hg could be tolerated safely without vasopressor infusion and was not associated with excessive fluid administration or kidney damage.

Abstract
Cardiovascular instability and reduced oxygenation are regular perioperative critical events associated with anesthesia requiring intervention in neonates and young infants. This review article addresses the current modalities of assessing this population's adequate end-organ perfusion in the perioperative period. Assuring adequate tissue oxygenation in critically ill infants is based on parameters that measure acceptable macrocirculatory hemodynamic parameters such as vital signs (mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate, urinary output) and chemical parameters (lactic acidosis, mixed venous oxygen saturation, base deficit). Microcirculation assessment represents a promising candidate for assessing and improving hemodynamic management strategies in perioperative and critically ill populations. Evaluation of the functional state of the microcirculation can parallel improvement in tissue perfusion, a term coined as "hemodynamic coherence". Less information is available to assess microcirculatory disturbances related to higher mortality risk in critically ill adults and pediatric patients with septic shock. Techniques for measuring microcirculation have substantially improved in the past decade and have evolved from methods that are limited in scope, such as velocity-based laser Doppler and near-infrared spectroscopy, to handheld vital microscopy (HVM), also referred to as videomicroscopy. Available technologies to assess microcirculation include sublingual incident dark field (IDF) and sublingual sidestream dark field (SDF) devices. This chapter addresses (1) the physiological basis of microcirculation and its relevance to the neonatal and pediatric populations, (2) the pathophysiology associated with altered microcirculation and endothelium, and (3) the current literature reviewing modalities to detect and quantify the presence of microcirculatory alterations.

Abstract
Purpose We intend to develop a nomogram for predicting the mortality risk of hospitalized septic shock patients. Patients and Methods Data were collected from patients hospitalized with septic shock in Affiliated Dongyang Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in China, over 10 years between January 2013 and January 2023. The eligible study participants were divided into modeling and validation groups. Factors independently related to the mortality in the modeling group were obtained by stepwise regression analysis. A logistic regression model and a nomogram were built. The model was evaluated based on the discrimination power (the area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic, AUC), the calibration degree and decision curve analysis. In the validation group, the discrimination powers of the logistic regression model, the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scoring model and machine learning model were compared. Results A total of 1253 patients, including 878 patients in the modeling group and 375 patients in the validation group, were included in this study. Age, respiratory failure, serum cholinesterase, lactic acid, blood phosphorus, blood magnesium, total bilirubin, and pH were independent risk factors related to the mortality risk of septic shock. The AUCs of the prediction model for the modeling and validation groups were 0.881 and 0.868, respectively. The models had a good calibration degree and clinical applicability. The AUC of the SOFA model for the validation population was 0.799, significantly lower than that of our model. The AUCs of the random forest and ensemble models were 0.865 and 0.863, respectively, comparable to that of our logistical prediction model. Conclusion The model established in this study can effectively predict the mortality risk in patients hospitalized with septic shock. Thus, the model could be used clinically to determine the best therapy or management for patients with septic shock.

Abstract
AIMS Impact of skin mottling has been poorly studied in patients admitted for cardiogenic shock. This study aimed to address this issue and identify determinants of 30-day and 1-year mortality in a large cardiogenic shock cohort of all etiologies. METHODS AND RESULTS FRENSHOCK is a prospective multicenter observational registry conducted in French critical care units between April and October, 2016. Among the 772 enrolled patients (mean age 65.7 ± 14.9 years; 71.5% male), 660 had skin mottling assessed at admission (85.5%) with almost 39% of patients in cardiogenic shock presenting mottling. The need for invasive respiratory support was significantly higher in patients with mottling (50.2% vs. 30.1%, p < 0.001) and likewise for the need for renal replacement therapy (19.9% vs. 12.4%, p = 0.09). However, the need for mechanical circulatory support was similar in both groups. Patients with mottling at admission presented a higher length of stay (19 vs. 16 days, p = 0.033), a higher 30-day mortality rate (31% vs. 23.3%, p = 0.031), and also showed significantly higher mortality at 1-year (54% vs. 42%, p = 0.003). The subgroup of patients in whom mottling appeared during the first 24 h after admission had the worst prognosis at 30 days. CONCLUSION Skin mottling at admission in patients with cardiogenic shock was statistically associated with prolonged length of stay and poor outcomes. As a perfusion-targeted resuscitation parameter, mottling is a simple, clinical-based approach and may thus help to improve and guide immediate goal-directed therapy to improve cardiogenic shock patients' outcomes.

Abstract
Background: The initial hemodynamic goal during septic shock resuscitation is to achieve a mean arterial pressure (MAP) above 65 mm Hg, although this does not assure a normal tissue perfusion. Capillary refill time (CRT), a marker of skin blood flow, has been validated as a marker of the reperfusion process. The aim of the study was to explore the relationship between MAP and CRT in patients in septic shock. Methods: We systematically reviewed studies which reported CRT and MAP in septic shock patients. Authors of eligible studies were asked to provide necessary data for performing a meta-correlation of Spearman's rank correlation coefficients. Subgroup analyses were performed, including studies of good quality and studies with higher/lower norepinephrine doses. Results: We identified 10 studies, comprising 917 patients. There were 5 studies considered to be of good quality. A meta-correlation showed a statistically significant but poor negative correlation between MAP and CRT (R = -0.158, range -0.221 to -0.093, P < .001, I2 = 0.0%). Subgroup analysis of best-quality studies gave similar results (R = -0.201, range -0.282 to -0.116, P < .001, I2 = 0.0%). In subanalysis concerning norepinephrine doses, no significant correlations were found. Conclusions: In patients with septic shock, there is poor inverse correlation between MAP and CRT. MAP > 65 mm Hg does not guarantee normalization of CRT.Registration code: PROSPERO: CRD42022355996. Registered on 5 September 2022.

Abstract
A common final pathway of pathogenetic mechanisms in septic organ dysfunction and death is a lack or non-utilization of oxygen. Plasma concentrations of lactate serve as surrogates for the oxygen-deficiency-induced imbalance between energy supply and demand. As S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) was shown to reflect tissue hypoxia, we compared the ability of SAH versus lactate to predict the progression of inflammatory and septic disease to septic organ dysfunction and death. Using univariate and multiple logistic regression, we found that SAH but not lactate, taken upon patients' inclusion in the study close to ICU admission, significantly and independently contributed to the prediction of disease progression and death. Due to the stronger increase in SAH in relation to S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), the ratio of SAM to SAH, representing methylation potential, was significantly decreased in patients with septic organ dysfunction and non-survivors compared with SIRS/sepsis patients (2.8 (IQR 2.3-3.9) vs. 8.8 (4.9-13.8); p = 0.003) or survivors (4.9 (2.8-9.5) vs. 8.9 (5.1-14.3); p = 0.026), respectively. Thus, SAH appears to be a better contributor to the prediction of septic organ dysfunction and death than lactate in critically ill patients. As SAH is a potent inhibitor of SAM-dependent methyltransferases involved in numerous vital biochemical processes, the impairment of the SAM-to-SAH ratio in severely critically ill septic patients and non-survivors warrants further studies on the pathogenetic role of SAH in septic multiple organ failure.
