Abstract
Arterial pressure management is a crucial task in the operating room and intensive care unit. In high-risk surgical and in critically ill patients, sustained hypotension is managed with continuous infusion of vasopressor agents, which most commonly have direct α agonist activity like phenylephrine or norepinephrine. The current standard of care to guide vasopressor infusion is manual titration to an arterial pressure target range. This approach may be improved by using automated systems that titrate vasopressor infusions to maintain a target pressure. In this article, we review the evidence behind blood pressure management in the operating room and intensive care unit and discuss current and potential future applications of automated blood pressure control.

Abstract
As the operating room and intensive care settings become increasingly complex, the required vigilance practitioners must dedicate to a wide array of clinical systems has increased concordantly. The resulting shortage of available attention to these various clinical tasks creates a vacuum for the introduction of systems that can administer well-established goal-directed therapies without significant provider feedback. Recently, there has been an explosion of academic exploration into creating such automated systems, with a strong specific focus on hemodynamic control. Within this field, the largest focus has been on goal-directed fluid therapy as systems automating vasopressor administration have only recently become viable options. Our goal in this review article is to summarize the validity of the relevant goal-directed hemodynamic systems and explore the expanding role of automation within these systems.

Abstract
Every day, physicians in critical-care settings are challenged with the hemodynamic management of patients with severe cardiovascular derangements. There is a potential role for closed-loop (automated) systems to assist clinicians in managing these patients and growing interest in the possible applications. In this review, we discuss the basic principles of critical-care hemodynamic management and the closed-loop systems that have been developed to help in this setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vasoactive drug infusion rates are titrated to achieve a desired effect, e.g., mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), rather than using infusion rates based on body weight. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a method to automatically identify a patient's sensitivity to sodium-nitroprusside, dobutamine or dopamine and to evaluate, whether an advisory system that predicts MAP 5 min in the future enhances a clinician's ability to titrate sodium-nitroprusside infusions. METHODS We used published models implemented in MATLAB to simulate the response of 100 individual patients to infusions of sodium-nitroprusside, dopamine and dobutamine. The simulated patient's sensitivity to the three drugs was identified using an adaptive filter approach, where MAP was altered in a binary stepwise fashion. Next, 9 nurses were asked to control the MAP of 6 of the simulated patients. For half of the patients, we used the identified sensitivity to predict and display MAP 5 min into the future. RESULTS Identifying each individual patient's sensitivity improved the accuracy of the MAP prediction by 75% for sodium-nitroprusside, 82% for dopamine and 52% for dobutamine over the MAP prediction based on an "average" patient's sensitivity. The advisory system shortened the median time to reach the desired MAP from 10.2 to 4.1 min, decreased the median number of infusion rate changes from 6 to 4, and resulted in a significant reduction of mental workload and effort. DISCUSSION Patient-specific drug sensitivity identifi- cation significantly improved the prediction of future MAP. By predicting and displaying the expected MAP 5 min in the future, the advisory system helped nurses titrate faster, reduced their perceived workload and might improve patient safety.

Abstract
Anesthetic care of the cardiac surgery patient is a continuum, beginning with the preoperative visit and ending when the patient is ambulatory and breathing well on the postoperative floor. Anesthesiologists are well-suited to provide postoperative care because the respiratory and cardiovascular management techniques are an extension of OR management. Attention to details is as important in the ICU as in the OR and offers the opportunity to forestall or reduce morbidity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To test a model for the assessment of critical care technology on closed loop infusion control, a technology that is in its early stages of development and testing on human subjects. DATA SOURCES A computer-assisted search of the English language literature and reviews of the gathered data by experts in the field of closed loop infusion control systems. STUDY SELECTION Studies relating to closed loop infusion control that addressed one or more of the questions contained in our technology assessment template were analyzed. Study design was not a factor in article selection. However, the lack of well-designed clinical outcome studies was an important factor in determining our conclusions. DATA EXTRACTION A focus person summarized the data from the selected studies that related to each of the assessment questions. The preliminary data summary developed by the focus person was further analyzed and refined by the task force. Experts in closed loop systems were then added to the group to review the summary provided by the task force. These experts' comments were considered by the task force and this final consensus report was developed. DATA SYNTHESIS Closed loop system control is a technological concept that may be applicable to several aspects of critical care practice. This is a technology in the early stages of evolution and much more research and data are needed before its introduction into usual clinical practice. Furthermore, each specific application and each device for each application (e.g., nitroprusside infusion, ventilator adjustment), although based on the same technological concept, are sufficiently different in terms of hardware and computer algorithms to require independent validation studies. CONCLUSIONS Closed loop infusion systems may have a role in critical care practice. However, for most applications, further development is required to move this technology from the innovation phase to the point where it can be evaluated so that its role in critical car practice can be defined. Each application of closed loop infusion systems must be independently validated by appropriately designed research studies. Users should be provided with the clinical parameters driving each closed loop system so that they can ensure that it agrees with their opinion of acceptable medical practice. Clinical researchers and leaders in industry should collaborate to perform the scientifically valid, outcome-based research that is necessary to evaluate the effect of this new technology. The original model we developed for technology assessment required the addition of several more questions to produce a complete analysis of an emerging technology. An emerging technology should be systematically assessed (using a model such as the model developed by the Society of Critical Care Medicine), before its introduction into clinical practice in order to provide a focus for human outcome validation trials and to minimize the possibility of widespread use of an unproven technology.

Abstract
SNP remains an effective, reliable, and commonly used drug for the rapid reduction of significant arterial hypertension regardless of the etiology, for afterload reduction in the face of low CO when blood volume is normal or increased, and for intraoperative induced hypotension. After establishing indwelling arterial monitoring, an initial infusion rate of 0.3-0.5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 is begun with titration as needed up to 2.0 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. Higher rates for brief periods of time (10 min) are acceptable. The use of alternative drugs to reduce the dose or shorten the duration of infusion should be considered when the 2.0 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 range is exceeded (Table 1). SNP should not be used by individuals unfamiliar with its potency and metabolic pathways, as the many reports of adverse reactions testify. Careful attention to infusion rates, particularly in patients at risk for depleted thiosulfate stores, is mandatory, and the use of other drugs in conjunction with or instead of SNP should always be considered. As with many therapeutic interventions, SNP requires careful administration to appropriately selected patients by a clinician who knows its inherent hazards. Despite its toxicity, SNP is popular because it is often the most (in some cases, the only) effective drug in some difficult clinical circumstances.

Abstract
Forty patients were chosen at random to receive halothane or isoflurane anaesthesia during craniotomy and a comparison of the postoperative hypertensive response was made using a microcomputer-based closed-loop arterial pressure control system with sodium nitroprusside to control and assess arterial pressure during the first 6 postoperative hours. A desired target systolic pressure was chosen for each patient and the frequency of hypertension, sodium nitroprusside requirements and quality of arterial pressure control were compared between the two groups. Thirty-five patients required sodium nitroprusside. The halothane group required a median dose of 15.2 mg (range 0-72) compared to 3.4 mg (range 0-87) in the isoflurane group. This difference is not statistically significant. Quality of arterial pressure control was satisfactory in both groups. In conclusion, arterial hypertension occurs frequently following intracranial surgery and is uninfluenced by the choice of halothane or isoflurane intra-operatively. This closed-loop arterial pressure control system functioned safely and effectively in this context.

Abstract
Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) is becoming increasingly popular among anaesthetists. It has several advantages, namely each component of the anaesthetic protocol can be independently controlled, and the operating room remains unpolluted with nitrous oxide or volatile anaesthetic agents. TIVA aims to maintain a constant blood concentration of each anaesthetic agent. This means that infusion rates need to be repeatedly altered. A computer calculates theoretical blood concentrations of agent according to a pharmacokinetic model, and drives an infusion device. Only a few programmes have been developed by research teams. No commercial device is available as yet. However, there are several syringe pumps and volumetric pumps which are accurate enough for use in TIVA and which may be controlled by computer. Clinical studies have shown the benefits of TIVA: greater haemodynamic stability, decreased drug consumption, more rapid recovery, and a lesser need for postoperative ventilatory support. The most appropriate agents are propofol and etomidate as hypnotics, alfentanil and sufentanil for opioids, vecuronium and atracurium as muscle relaxants. Etomidate is not recommended for prolonged infusions, because of the risk of adrenocortical suppression. TIVA seems to be attractive for neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, day case surgery, endoscopic procedures, and anaesthesia in remote locations. Unfortunately, it is an expensive technique. Moreover, there is considerable interpatient variability of the drug concentration required for a same clinical effect. Two methods are proposed to decrease this variability: population pharmacokinetic models and Bayesian forecasting. Closed loop systems are still research tools. It is concluded that computer-driven anaesthesia is the equivalent to the vaporizer for volatile agents. However, further clinical studies are needed to determine whether the advantages of this technique outweigh its disadvantages.

Abstract
Hypertension is common after a cardiac operation and may result in postoperative hemorrhagic and other complications. Most often this problem has been treated using manually controlled doses of intravenous sodium nitroprusside. To evaluate the clinical impact of an automated closed-loop administration system on patients after cardiotomy, a prospective trial was conducted at nine clinical centers. Patients with hypertension were managed by either manual nitroprusside titration (n = 532) or a closed-loop automated titration system (n = 557). Patient groups were not significantly different in age, weight, or height. Moreover, the types of surgical procedures were comparable: primary coronary artery bypass grafting, 59.2% and 58.9%, manual group versus automated group; repeat coronary artery bypass grafting, 10.5% and 8.6%, respectively; valve procedures, 11.3% and 15.1%, respectively; and other cardiac procedures, 19.0% and 17.4%, respectively (all p = not significant). The automated group showed a significant reduction in the number of hypertensive episodes per patient (1.8 +/- 0.2 versus 0.6 +/- 0.07; p = 0.0001. At the same time, the number of hypotensive episodes per patient was reduced with automated closed-loop titration (0.40 +/- 0.05 versus 0.30 +/- 0.03; p = 0.02). Chest tube drainage (866 +/- 37 mL versus 693 +/- 23 mL [mean +/- standard error of the mean]; p = 0.0001), percentage of patients receiving transfusion (40.0% versus 33.0%; p = 0.02), and total amount transfused (2.4 +/- 0.12 units versus 2.0 +/- 0.10 units; p = 0.0003) were all reduced significantly by the use of an automated titration system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
