Abstract
Background and Objective Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction, and the most common and vulnerable organ is the lungs, with sepsis-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) increasing mortality. In recent years, an increasing number of studies have improved our understanding of sepsis-related ARDS in terms of epidemiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, prognosis, and other aspects, as well as our ability to prevent, detect, and treat sepsis-related ARDS. However, sepsis-related lung injury remains an important issue and clinical burden. Therefore, a literature review was conducted on sepsis-related lung injury in order to further guide clinical practice in reducing the acute and chronic consequences of this condition. Methods This study conducted a search of the MEDLINE and PubMed databases, among others for literature published from 1991 to 2023 using the following keywords: definition of sepsis, acute lung injury, sepsis-related acute lung injury, epidemiology, risk factors, early diagnosis of sepsis-related acute lung injury, sepsis, ARDS, pathology and physiology, inflammatory imbalance caused by sepsis, congenital immune response, and treatment. Key Content and Findings This review explored the risk factors of sepsis, sepsis-related ARDS, early screening and diagnosis, pathophysiology, and treatment and found that in view of the high mortality rate of ARDS associated with sepsis. In response to the high mortality rate of sepsis-related ARDS, some progress has been made, such as rapid identification of sepsis and effective antibiotic treatment, early fluid resuscitation, lung-protective ventilation, etc. Conclusions Sepsis remains a common and challenging critical illness to cure. In response to the high mortality rate of sepsis-related ARDS, progress has been made in rapid sepsis identification, effective antibiotic treatment, early fluid resuscitation, and lung-protective ventilation. However, further research is needed regarding long-term effects such as lung recruitment, prone ventilation, and the application of neuromuscular blocking agents and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Abstract
Septic shock stands for a group of manifestations that will cause a severe hemodynamic and metabolic dysfunction, which leads to a significant increase in the risk of death by a massive response of the immune system to any sort of infection that ends up with refractory hypotension making it responsible for escalating the numbers of hospitalized patients mortality rate, Organisms that are isolated most of the time are Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staph aureus. The WHO considers sepsis to be a worldwide health concern; the incidence of sepsis and septic shock have been increasing over the years while being considered to be under-reported at the same time. This review is a quick informative recap of the recent studies regarding diagnostic approaches using lactic acid (Lac), procalcitonin (PCT), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score, as well as management recommendations for using vasopressors, fluid resuscitation, corticosteroids and antibiotics that should be considered when dealing with such type of shock.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Albumin is used commonly across a wide range of clinical settings to improve hemodynamics, to facilitate fluid removal, and to manage complications of cirrhosis. The International Collaboration for Transfusion Medicine Guidelines developed guidelines for the use of albumin in patients requiring critical care, undergoing cardiovascular surgery, undergoing kidney replacement therapy, or experiencing complications of cirrhosis. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Cochairs oversaw the guideline development process and the panel included researchers, clinicians, methodologists, and a patient representative. The evidence informing this guideline arises from a systematic review of randomized clinical trials and systematic reviews, in which multiple databases were searched (inception through November 23, 2022). The panel reviewed the data and formulated the guideline recommendations using Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation methodology. The guidelines were revised after public consultation. RESULTS The panel made 14 recommendations on albumin use in adult critical care (three recommendations), pediatric critical care (one recommendation), neonatal critical care (two recommendations), cardiovascular surgery (two recommendations), kidney replacement therapy (one recommendation), and complications of cirrhosis (five recommendations). Of the 14 recommendations, two recommendations had moderate certainty of evidence, five recommendations had low certainty of evidence, and seven recommendations had very low certainty of evidence. Two of the 14 recommendations suggested conditional use of albumin for patients with cirrhosis undergoing large-volume paracentesis or with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. Twelve of 14 recommendations did not suggest albumin use in a wide variety of clinical situations where albumin commonly is transfused. INTERPRETATION Currently, few evidence-based indications support the routine use of albumin in clinical practice to improve patient outcomes. These guidelines provide clinicians with actionable recommendations on the use of albumin.

Abstract
PURPOSE This is the first of three parts of the clinical practice guideline from the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) on resuscitation fluids in adult critically ill patients. This part addresses fluid choice and the other two will separately address fluid amount and fluid removal. METHODS This guideline was formulated by an international panel of clinical experts and methodologists. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology was applied to evaluate the certainty of evidence and to move from evidence to decision. RESULTS For volume expansion, the guideline provides conditional recommendations for using crystalloids rather than albumin in critically ill patients in general (moderate certainty of evidence), in patients with sepsis (moderate certainty of evidence), in patients with acute respiratory failure (very low certainty of evidence) and in patients in the perioperative period and patients at risk for bleeding (very low certainty of evidence). There is a conditional recommendation for using isotonic saline rather than albumin in patients with traumatic brain injury (very low certainty of evidence). There is a conditional recommendation for using albumin rather than crystalloids in patients with cirrhosis (very low certainty of evidence). The guideline provides conditional recommendations for using balanced crystalloids rather than isotonic saline in critically ill patients in general (low certainty of evidence), in patients with sepsis (low certainty of evidence) and in patients with kidney injury (very low certainty of evidence). There is a conditional recommendation for using isotonic saline rather than balanced crystalloids in patients with traumatic brain injury (very low certainty of evidence). There is a conditional recommendation for using isotonic crystalloids rather than small-volume hypertonic crystalloids in critically ill patients in general (very low certainty of evidence). CONCLUSIONS This guideline provides eleven recommendations to inform clinicians on resuscitation fluid choice in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Purpose The optimal resuscitative fluid for patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) remains controversial. Therefore, our objective was to assess the effect of balanced crystalloids in contrast to normal saline on clinical outcomes among patients with DKA. Methods We searched electronic databases for randomized controlled trials comparing balanced crystalloids versus normal saline in patients with DKA, the search period was from inception through October 20th, 2023. The outcomes were the time to resolution of DKA, major adverse kidney events, post-resuscitation chloride, and incidence of hypokalemia. Results Our meta-analysis encompassed 11 trials, incorporating a total of 753 patients with DKA. There was no significant difference between balanced crystalloids and normal saline group for the time to resolution of DKA (MD -1.49, 95%CI -4.29 to 1.31, P=0.30, I2 = 65%), major adverse kidney events (RR 0.88, 95%CI 0.58 to 1.34, P=0.56, I2 = 0%), and incidence of hypokalemia (RR 0.80, 95%CI 0.43 to 1.46, P=0.46, I2 = 56%). However, there was a significant reduction in the post-resuscitation chloride (MD -3.16, 95%CI -5.82 to -0.49, P=0.02, I2 = 73%) among patients received balanced crystalloids. Conclusion Among patients with DKA, the use of balanced crystalloids as compared to normal saline has no effect on the time to resolution of DKA, major adverse kidney events, and incidence of hypokalemia. However, the use of balanced crystalloids could reduce the post-resuscitation chloride. Systematic review registration https://osf.io, identifier c8f3d.

Abstract
Despite advances in management strategy, traumatic brain injury remains strongly associated with neurological impairment and mortality. Management of traumatic brain injury requires careful and targeted management of the physiological consequences which extend beyond the scope of the primary impact to the cranium. Here, we present a review of the principles of its acute management in adults. We outline the procedure which patients are assessed and the critical physiological variables which must be monitored to prevent further neurological damage. We describe current interventional strategies from the context of the underlying physiological mechanisms and recent clinical data and identify persisting challenges in traumatic brain injury management and potential avenues of future progress.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute pancreatitis poses a significant health risk due to the potential for pancreatic necrosis and multi-organ failure. Fluid resuscitation has demonstrated positive effects; however, consensus on the ideal intravenous fluid type and infusion rate for optimal patient outcomes remains elusive. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Google Scholar for studies published between 2005 and January 2023. Reference lists of potential studies were manually searched to identify additional relevant articles. Randomized controlled trials and retrospective studies comparing high (≥ 20 ml/kg/h), moderate (≥ 10 to < 20 ml/kg/h), and low (5 to < 10 ml/kg/h) fluid therapy in acute pancreatitis were considered. RESULTS Twelve studies met our inclusion criteria. Results indicated improved clinical outcomes with low versus moderate fluid therapy (OR = 0.73; 95% CI [0.13, 4.03]; p = 0.71) but higher mortality rates with low compared to moderate (OR = 0.80; 95% CI [0.37, 1.70]; p = 0.55), moderate compared to high (OR = 0.58; 95% CI [0.41, 0.81], p = 0.001), and low compared to high fluids (OR = 0.42; 95% CI [0.16, 1.10]; P = 0.08). Systematic complications improved with moderate versus low fluid therapy (OR = 1.22; 95% CI [0.84, 1.78]; p = 0.29), but no difference was found between moderate and high fluid therapy (OR = 0.59; 95% CI [0.41, 0.86]; p = 0.006). DISCUSSION This meta-analysis revealed differences in the clinical outcomes of patients with AP receiving low, moderate, and high fluid resuscitation. Low fluid infusion demonstrated better clinical outcomes but higher mortality, systemic complications, and SIRS persistence than moderate or high fluid therapy. Early fluid administration yielded better results than rapid fluid resuscitation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Systematic reviews (SRs) offer updated evidence to support decision-making on sepsis treatments. However, the rigour of SRs may vary, and methodological flaws may limit their validity in guiding clinical practice. This cross-sectional study appraised the methodological quality of SRs on sepsis treatments. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Database for eligible SRs on randomised controlled trials on sepsis treatments with at least one meta-analysis published between 2018 and 2023. We extracted SRs' bibliographical characteristics with a pre-designed form and appraised their methodological quality using AMSTAR (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews) 2. We applied logistic regressions to explore associations between bibliographical characteristics and methodological quality ratings. RESULTS Among the 102 SRs, two (2.0%) had high overall quality, while respectively four (3.9%), seven (6.9%) and 89 (87.3%) were of moderate, low, and critically low quality. Performance in several critical methodological domains was poor, with only 32 (31.4%) considering the risk of bias in primary studies in result interpretation, 22 (21.6%) explaining excluded primary studies, and 16 (15.7%) applying comprehensive searching strategies. SRs published in higher impact factor journals (adjusted odds ratio: 1.19; 95% confidence interval: 1.05 to 1.36) was associated with higher methodological quality. CONCLUSIONS The methodological quality of recent SRs on sepsis treatments is unsatisfactory. Future reviewers should address the above critical methodological aspects. More resources should also be allocated to support continuous training in critical appraisal among healthcare professionals and other evidence users.

BACKGROUND Intravenous albumin is commonly utilised in cardiovascular surgery for priming of the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit, volume replacement, or both, although the evidence to support this practice is uncertain. The aim was to compare i.v. albumin with synthetic colloids and crystalloids for paediatric and adult patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery for all-cause mortality and other perioperative outcomes. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of i.v. albumin compared with synthetic colloids and crystalloids on the primary outcome of all-cause mortality was conducted. Secondary outcomes included renal failure, blood loss, duration of hospital or intensive care unit stay, cardiac index, and blood component use; subgroups were analysed by age, comparator fluid, and intended use (priming, volume, or both). We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CCRT) from 1946 to November 23, 2022. RESULTS Of 42 RCTs, mortality was assessed in 15 trials (2711 cardiac surgery patients) and the risk difference was 0.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.01 to 0.01, I2=0%. Among secondary outcomes, i.v. albumin resulted in smaller fluid balance, mean difference -0.55 L, 95% CI -1.06 to -0.4, I2=90% (nine studies, 1975 patients) and higher albumin concentrations, mean difference 7.77 g L-1, 95% CI 3.73-11.8, I2=95% (six studies, 325 patients). CONCLUSIONS Intravenous albumin use was not associated with a difference in morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery, when compared with comparator fluids. The lack of improvement in important outcomes with albumin and its higher cost suggests it should be used restrictively. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW PROTOCOL PROSPERO; CRD42020171876.

Abstract
Objective: To mine and analyze the adverse reaction signals of human serum albumin (HSA) using the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database for the safe clinical use of this drug. Methods: Data cleaning and analysis of adverse event reports in the FAERS database for a total of 76 quarters from Q1 2004 to Q4 2022 were performed using the reporting odds ratio (ROR), Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN). Gender-differentiated signal detection was used to investigate the gender differences in the occurrence of HSA adverse events. Results: Through a combination of three methods, a total of 535 adverse event reports were identified. These reports involved 1,885 cases of adverse reactions, with respiratory, thoracic, and mediastinal disorders, as well as general disorders and administration site conditions, as the most common. One noteworthy new signal was the occurrence of transfusion-related acute lung injury. Additionally, gender-differentiated signals were present, with females experiencing paraesthesia, hypertension, pulmonary oedema, loss of consciousness, and vomiting. Conclusion: This study has revealed that HSA poses a risk of causing transfusion-related acute lung injury. It has also been observed that adverse reactions, including paraesthesia, hypertension, pulmonary oedema, loss of consciousness, and vomiting, are more prevalent in females. These findings should be taken into account when using HSA in a clinical setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic shock (HS), which causes insufficient tissue perfusion, can result in multiple organ failure (MOF) and death. This study aimed to evaluate whether doxycycline (DOX) protects cardiovascular, kidney, and liver tissue from damage in a rat model of HS. Immediately before the resuscitation, DOX (10 mg/kg; i.v.) was administered, and its protective effects were assessed 24 h later. Mean arterial pressure, renal blood flow, heart rate, vasoactive drug response, and blood markers such as urea, creatinine, AST, ALT, CPK, CPR, and NOx levels were determined. RESULTS We showed that DOX has a significant effect on renal blood flow and on urea, creatinine, AST, ALT, CPK, and NOx. Morphologically, DOX reduced the inflammatory process in the liver tissue. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that DOX protects the liver and kidney against injury and dysfunction in a HS model and could be a strategy to reduce organ damage associated with ischemia-and-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The prevalence of obesity in the United States is up to 40% in adults. Obese patients with severe sepsis have a lower mortality rate compared with normal body mass index (BMI) patients. We hypothesized that trauma patients with severe sepsis and obese BMI will have a decreased mortality risk in comparison with normal BMI patients. METHODS The Trauma Quality Improvement Program (2017) was queried for adult trauma patients with documented BMI and severe sepsis. Patients were grouped based on BMI: non-obese trauma patients (nOTP) BMI <30 kg/m2 and obese trauma patients (OTP) ≥30 kg/m2. A multivariable logistic regression model was used for analysis of mortality. RESULTS From 1246 trauma patients with severe sepsis, 566 (42.4%) were nOTP and 680 (57.6%) were OTP. OTP had increased length of stay (LOS) (19 vs 21 days, P < .001), intensive care unit (ICU) LOS (13 vs 18 days, P < .001) and ventilator days (10 vs 11 days, P < .001). After adjusting for covariates, when compared to normal BMI patients, patients who were overweight (OR 1.11 CI .875-1.41 P = .390), obese (OR .797 CI .59-1.06 P = .126), severely obese (OR .926 CI .63-1.36 P = .696) and morbidly obese (OR 1.448 CI 1.01-2.07 P = .04) all had a similar associated risk for mortality compared to patients with normal BMI. CONCLUSION In adult trauma patients with severe sepsis, this national analysis demonstrated OTP had increased LOS, ICU LOS, and ventilator days compared to nOTP. However, patients with increasing degrees of obesity had similar associated risk of mortality compared to trauma patients with severe sepsis and a normal BMI.

Abstract
Increased fluid overload (FO) is associated with poor outcomes in critically ill patients, especially in acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the exact timing from when FO influences outcomes remains unclear. We retrospectively screened intensive care unit (ICU) admitted patients with AKI between January 2011 and December 2015. Logistic or linear regression analyses were performed to determine when hourly %FO was significant on 90-day in-hospital mortality (primary outcome) or ventilator-free days (VFDs). In total, 1120 patients were enrolled in this study. Univariate analysis showed that a higher %FO was significantly associated with higher mortality from the first hour of ICU admission (odds ratio 1.34, 95% confidence interval 1.15-1.56, P < 0.001), whereas multivariate analysis adjusted with age, sex, APACHE II score, and sepsis etiology showed the association was significant from the 27th hour. Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that a higher %FO was significantly associated with shorter VFDs from the 1st hour. The significant associations were retained during all following observation periods after they showed significance. In patients with AKI, a higher %FO was associated with higher mortality and shorter VFDs from the early phase after ICU admission. FO should be administered with a physiological target or goal in place from the initial phase of critical illness.

Abstract
Background Fluid resuscitation is routinely needed for critically ill patients. However, the optimal choice between crystalloids and normal saline is in heat debate. Objective To conduct a meta-analysis comparing normal saline and balanced crystalloids in the treatment of critically ill patients with composite mortality as the primary outcome. Methods PubMed, Embase, Medline, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception up to March 2022. Studies of critically ill adult patients assigned to receive normal saline or balanced crystalloids were included. We conducted a meta-analysis using an inverse variance, random-effects model in addition to trial sequential analysis (TSA). The primary outcome was composite mortality. Subgroup analyses were also conducted. Results Eighteen full-text studies (n=36,224) were included. Balanced crystalloids were associated with lower mortality compared with normal saline (risk ratio [RR]=0.96; 95% confidential interval [CI] 0.93, 1; p=0.03; I2=0) and lower incidence of acute kidney injury/acute renal failure (RR =0.93; 95% CI = 0.87, 0.99; p=0.03). No significant difference was observed in other outcomes. In the sepsis patients, the balanced crystalloid showed a lower composite mortality rate compared with normal saline (RR =0.91; 95% CI = 0.85, 0.99; p=0.02). TSA analysis demonstrated that, with 80% power, the effect of balanced crystalloid is not larger than a 10% relative decrease in composite mortality compared with normal saline. Conclusion and Relevance This study demonstrated that balanced crystalloids could be an optimal choice over normal saline in critically ill patients to a reduced composite mortality rate. In patients with sepsis, the difference is especially significant. Nonetheless, the optimal resuscitation fluid option between saline and balanced crystalloid solutions should be investigated further with more evidence.

Abstract
Critical illness is often accompanied by a hemodynamic imbalance between macrocirculation and microcirculation, as well as mitochondrial dysfunction. Microcirculatory disorders lead to abnormalities in the supply of oxygen to tissue cells, while mitochondrial dysfunction leads to abnormal energy metabolism and impaired tissue oxygen utilization, making these conditions important pathogenic factors of critical illness. At the same time, there is a close relationship between the microcirculation and mitochondria. We introduce here the concept of a "critical unit", with two core components: microcirculation, which mainly comprises the microvascular network and endothelial cells, especially the endothelial glycocalyx; and mitochondria, which are mainly involved in energy metabolism but perform other non-negligible functions. This review also introduces several techniques and devices that can be utilized for the real-time synchronous monitoring of the microcirculation and mitochondria, and thus critical unit monitoring. Finally, we put forward the concepts and strategies of critical unit-guided treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study examined differences in clinical and resuscitation characteristics between injured children with and without severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) and aimed to identify resuscitation characteristics associated with improved outcomes following sTBI. METHODS This is a post hoc analysis of a prospective observational study of injured children younger than 18 years (2018-2019) transported from the scene, with elevated shock index pediatric-adjusted on arrival and head Abbreviated Injury Scale score of ≥3. Timing and volume of resuscitation products were assessed using χ 2t test, Fisher's exact t test, Kruskal-Wallis, and multivariable logistic regression analyses. RESULTS There were 142 patients with sTBI and 547 with non-sTBI injuries. Severe traumatic brain injury patients had lower initial hemoglobin (11.3 vs. 12.4, p < 0.001), greater initial international normalized ratio (1.4 vs. 1.1, p < 0.001), greater Injury Severity Score (25 vs. 5, p < 0.001), greater rates of ventilator (59% vs. 11%, p < 0.001) and intensive care unit (ICU) requirement (79% vs. 27%, p < 0.001), and more inpatient complications (18% vs. 3.3%, p < 0.001). Severe traumatic brain injury patients received more prehospital crystalloid (25% vs. 15%, p = 0.008), ≥1 crystalloid boluses (52% vs. 24%, p < 0.001), and blood transfusion (44% vs. 12%, p < 0.001) than non-sTBI patients. Among sTBI patients, receipt of ≥1 crystalloid bolus (n = 75) was associated with greater ICU need (92% vs. 64%, p < 0.001), longer median ICU (6 vs. 4 days, p = 0.027) and hospital stay (9 vs. 4 days, p < 0.001), and more in-hospital complications (31% vs. 7.5%, p = 0.003) than those who received <1 bolus (n = 67). These findings persisted after adjustment for Injury Severity Score (odds ratio, 3.4-4.4; all p < 0.010). CONCLUSION Pediatric trauma patients with sTBI received more crystalloid than those without sTBI despite having a greater international normalized ratio at presentation and more frequently requiring blood products. Excessive crystalloid may be associated with worsened outcomes, including in-hospital mortality, seen among pediatric sTBI patients who received ≥1 crystalloid bolus. Further attention to a crystalloid sparing, early transfusion approach to resuscitation of children with sTBI is needed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic/Care Management; Level IV.

HIGH-MOLECULAR-WEIGHT HYALURONAN-A POTENTIAL ADJUVANT TO FLUID RESUSCITATION IN ABDOMINAL SEPSIS? Shock 2023; 59:763-770. [PMID: 36809365 PMCID: PMC10125108 DOI: 10.1097/shk.0000000000002089] [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: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023]
Abstract
ABSTRACT While fluid resuscitation is fundamental in the treatment of sepsis-induced tissue hypoperfusion, a sustained positive fluid balance is associated with excess mortality. Hyaluronan, an endogenous glycosaminoglycan with high affinity to water, has not been tested previously as adjuvant to fluid resuscitation in sepsis. In a prospective, parallel-grouped, blinded model of porcine peritonitis sepsis, we randomized animals to intervention with adjuvant hyaluronan (add-on to standard therapy, n = 8) or 0.9% saline (n = 8). After the onset of hemodynamic instability, the animals received an initial bolus of 0.1% hyaluronan (1 mg/kg/10 min) or placebo (0.9% saline) followed by a continuous infusion of 0.1% hyaluronan (1 mg/kg/h) or saline during the experiment. We hypothesized that the administration of hyaluronan would reduce the volume of fluid administered (aiming at stroke volume variation <13%) and/or attenuate the inflammatory reaction. Total volumes of intravenous fluids infused were 17.5 ± 11 versus 19.0 ± 7 mL/kg/h in intervention and control groups, respectively ( P = 0.442). Plasma IL-6 increased to 2,450 (1,420-6,890) pg/mL and 3,690 (1,410-11,960) pg/mL (18 hours of resuscitation) in the intervention and control groups (nonsignificant). The intervention counteracted the increase in proportion of fragmented hyaluronan associated with peritonitis sepsis (mean peak elution fraction [18 hours of resuscitation] intervention group: 16.8 ± 0.9 versus control group: 17.9 ± 0.6 [ P = 0.031]). In conclusion, hyaluronan did not reduce the volume needed for fluid resuscitation or decrease the inflammatory reaction, even though it counterbalanced the peritonitis-induced shift toward increased proportion of fragmented hyaluronan.

[PMID: 37176628 PMCID: PMC10179263 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12093188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 39.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis/septic shock is a life-threatening and time-dependent condition that requires timely management to reduce mortality. This review aims to update physicians with regard to the main pillars of treatment for this insidious condition. METHODS PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE were searched from inception with special attention paid to November 2021-January 2023. RESULTS The management of sepsis/septic shock is challenging and involves different pathophysiological aspects, encompassing empirical antimicrobial treatment (which is promptly administered after microbial tests), fluid (crystalloids) replacement (to be established according to fluid tolerance and fluid responsiveness), and vasoactive agents (e.g., norepinephrine (NE)), which are employed to maintain mean arterial pressure above 65 mmHg and reduce the risk of fluid overload. In cases of refractory shock, vasopressin (rather than epinephrine) should be combined with NE to reach an acceptable level of pressure control. If mechanical ventilation is indicated, the tidal volume should be reduced from 10 to 6 mL/kg. Heparin is administered to prevent venous thromboembolism, and glycemic control is recommended. The efficacy of other treatments (e.g., proton-pump inhibitors, sodium bicarbonate, etc.) is largely debated, and such treatments might be used on a case-to-case basis. CONCLUSIONS The management of sepsis/septic shock has significantly progressed in the last few years. Improving knowledge of the main therapeutic cornerstones of this challenging condition is crucial to achieve better patient outcomes.

Abstract
Lung transplantation is the definitive end-stage treatment for many lung diseases, and postoperative pulmonary oedema severely affects survival after lung transplantation. Optimizing perioperative fluid management can reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary oedema and improve the prognosis of lung transplant patients by removing the influence of patient, donor's lung and ECMO factors. Therefore, this article reviews seven aspects of lung transplant patients' pathophysiological characteristics, physiological characteristics of fluids, the influence of the donor lung on pulmonary oedema as well as current fluid rehydration concepts, advantages or disadvantages of intraoperative monitoring tools or types of fluids on postoperative pulmonary oedema, while showing the existing challenges in section 7. The aim is to show the specificity of perioperative fluid management in lung transplant patients and to provide new ideas for individualised fluid management in lung transplantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Hemorrhage and trauma-induced coagulopathy cause significant morbidity and mortality in trauma patients. Although blood products are the cornerstone of resuscitation, these resources are scarce, necessitating alternatives. This review examines the use of alternative blood products in trauma as well as the literature supporting their use. RECENT FINDINGS There is no single true blood product alternative. In recent years, there has been great progress in understanding trauma-induced pathophysiology and blood component alternatives. Products such as tranexamic acid and prothrombin complex concentrate have become well established and are frequently utilized in trauma centers, and many more alternatives are still undergoing further research and development. SUMMARY Stabilization of hemorrhage and resuscitation is priority in trauma-induced coagulopathy treatment. Alternative products such as tranexamic acid, recombinant factors, prothrombic complex concentrate, fibrinogen concentrates, and desmopressin may also be considered based on the clinical context. Viscoelastic hemostatic assays such as rotational thromboelastometry and thromboelastography can help guide these efforts. Following initial stabilization, additional interventions such as iron supplementation, erythropoietin stimulating agents, and vitamin D may help with chronic sequela.

Abstract
Each year, approximately 70 million people suffer traumatic brain injury, which has a significant physical, psychosocial and economic impact for patients and their families. It is recommended in the UK that all patients with traumatic brain injury and a Glasgow coma scale ≤ 8 should be transferred to a neurosurgical centre. However, many patients, especially those in whom neurosurgery is not required, are not treated in, nor transferred to, a neurosurgical centre. This review aims to provide clinicians who work in non-neurosurgical centres with a summary of contemporary studies relevant to the critical care management of patients with traumatic brain injury. A targeted literature review was undertaken that included guidelines, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, clinical trials and randomised controlled trials (published in English between 1 January 2017 and 1 July 2022). Studies involving key clinical management strategies published before this time, but which have not been updated or repeated, were also eligible for inclusion. Analysis of the topics identified during the review was then summarised. These included: fundamental critical care management approaches (including ventilation strategies, fluid management, seizure control and osmotherapy); use of processed electroencephalogram monitoring; non-invasive assessment of intracranial pressure; prognostication; and rehabilitation techniques. Through this process, we have formulated practical recommendations to guide clinical practice in non-specialist centres.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe trauma represents a major global public health burden and the management of post-traumatic bleeding continues to challenge healthcare systems around the world. Post-traumatic bleeding and associated traumatic coagulopathy remain leading causes of potentially preventable multiorgan failure and death if not diagnosed and managed in an appropriate and timely manner. This sixth edition of the European guideline on the management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following traumatic injury aims to advise clinicians who care for the bleeding trauma patient during the initial diagnostic and therapeutic phases of patient management. METHODS The pan-European, multidisciplinary Task Force for Advanced Bleeding Care in Trauma included representatives from six European professional societies and convened to assess and update the previous version of this guideline using a structured, evidence-based consensus approach. Structured literature searches covered the period since the last edition of the guideline, but considered evidence cited previously. The format of this edition has been adjusted to reflect the trend towards concise guideline documents that cite only the highest-quality studies and most relevant literature rather than attempting to provide a comprehensive literature review to accompany each recommendation. RESULTS This guideline comprises 39 clinical practice recommendations that follow an approximate temporal path for management of the bleeding trauma patient, with recommendations grouped behind key decision points. While approximately one-third of patients who have experienced severe trauma arrive in hospital in a coagulopathic state, a systematic diagnostic and therapeutic approach has been shown to reduce the number of preventable deaths attributable to traumatic injury. CONCLUSION A multidisciplinary approach and adherence to evidence-based guidelines are pillars of best practice in the management of severely injured trauma patients. Further improvement in outcomes will be achieved by optimising and standardising trauma care in line with the available evidence across Europe and beyond.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the serious complications of sepsis in clinical practice, and is an important cause of prolonged hospitalization, death, increased medical costs, and a huge medical burden to society. The pathogenesis of AKI associated with sepsis is relatively complex and includes hemodynamic abnormalities due to inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and shock, which subsequently cause a decrease in renal perfusion pressure and eventually lead to ischemia and hypoxia in renal tissue. Active clinical correction of hypotension can effectively improve renal microcirculatory disorders and promote the recovery of renal function. Furthermore, it has been found that in patients with a previous history of hypertension, small changes in blood pressure may be even more deleterious for kidney function. Therefore, the management of blood pressure in patients with sepsis-related AKI will directly affect the short-term and long-term renal function prognosis. This review summarizes the pathophysiological mechanisms of microcirculatory disorders affecting renal function, fluid management, vasopressor, the clinical blood pressure target, and kidney replacement therapy to provide a reference for the clinical management of sepsis-related AKI, thereby promoting the recovery of renal function for the purpose of improving patient prognosis.

Ann Med 2023; 55:2246996. [PMID: 37607247 PMCID: PMC10446774 DOI: 10.1080/07853890.2023.2246996] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 08/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is frequently employed for cardiac surgery, and selecting a suitable priming fluid is a prerequisite for CPB. Currently, the commonly used priming fluids in clinics are classified as crystalloids and colloids, including balanced crystalloids, albumin, dextran, gelatin and hydroxyethyl starch (HES). This network meta-analysis compared the effects of eight fluids used during CPB in adults to determine optimal priming fluid during CPB surgery. METHODS Randomised controlled trials assessing priming fluids for CPB in adult cardiac surgery published before 13 April 2023 were searched across Ovid MEDLINE(R) ALL, OVID EMbase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Various priming fluids were classified into eight categories, including balanced crystalloids, 0.9% NaCl, iso-oncotic human albumin, hyperoncotic human albumin, HES with molecular weight 130k, HES with molecular weight 200k, gelatin and dextran. RESULTS The NMA of platelet counts revealed no significant differences in any result. In direct comparison results, only the comparison of HES with molecular weight 130k vs. gelatin (standard mean difference = -0.40, 95% confidence interval [95%CI: -0.63, -0.16) revealed a significant difference. According to the SUCRA, balanced crystalloids had the highest platelet count, followed by gelatin, and HES with a molecular weight of 130k had the lowest platelet, followed by HES with a molecular weight of 200k. CONCLUSION Patients using dextran have a low mortality rate and a short mean CPB time, the use of balanced crystalloids is beneficial in terms of platelet count, and HES with molecular weight 130k is beneficial for postoperative urine volume at 24h. However, all priming fluids have pros and cons quite, and the optimal choice of priming fluids remains unsupported by current evidences. When performing CPB surgery, the type of priming fluid should be selected according to the actual situation in CPB for adult cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Sepsis carries a substantial risk of morbidity and mortality in newborns, especially preterm-born neonates. Endothelial glycocalyx (eGC) is a carbohydrate-rich layer lining the vascular endothelium, with important vascular barrier function and cell adhesion properties, serving also as a mechano-sensor for blood flow. eGC shedding is recognized as a fundamental pathophysiological process generating microvascular dysfunction, which in turn contributes to multiple organ failure and death in sepsis. Although the disruption of eGC and its consequences have been investigated intensively in the adult population, its composition, development, and potential mechanisms of action are still poorly studied during the neonatal period, and more specifically, in neonatal sepsis. Further knowledge on this topic may provide a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that guide the sepsis pathology during the neonatal period, and would increase the usefulness of endothelial glycocalyx dysfunction as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker. We reviewed several components of the eGC that help to deeply understand the mechanisms involved in the eGC disruption during the neonatal period. In addition, we evaluated the potential of eGC components as biomarkers and future targets to develop therapeutic strategies for neonatal sepsis.

[PMID: 36578542 PMCID: PMC9792095 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.1037893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 11/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Human serum albumin (HSA) is a commonly used medication for the treatment of sepsis. However, there is no conclusive evidence as to whether different concentrations of HSA are associated with patient prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the association between different concentrations of HSA and 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis. Methods: The data for this retrospective study were collected from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database. Patients with sepsis were divided into two groups according to the concentration of HSA received: 25% and 5% HSA. The primary outcome of this study was the 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis. To ensure the robustness of our findings, we used multivariate Cox regression, propensity score matching, double-robust estimation, and inverse probability weighting models. Results: A total of 76,943 patients were screened, of whom 5,009 were enrolled. 1,258 and 3,751 patients received 25% and 5% HSA, respectively. The 28-day mortality rate was 38.2% (481/1,258) for patients in the 25% HSA group and 8.7% (325/3,751) for patients in the 5% HSA group. After propensity score matching, 1,648 patients were identified. The inverse probability weighting model suggested that 5% HSA received was associated with lower 28-day mortality (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.63, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.54-0.73, p < 0.001). Subgroup and sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of the results. Conclusion: In patients with sepsis, 5% HSA received may be associated with a lower risk of 28-day mortality than 25% HSA. Further randomized controlled trials are required to confirm this association.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to develop and externally validate a model to predict adjunctive vasopressin response in patients with septic shock being treated with norepinephrine for bedside use in the intensive care unit. DESIGN This was a retrospective analysis of two adult tertiary intensive care unit septic shock populations. SETTING Barnes-Jewish Hospital (BJH) from 2010 to 2017 and Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) from 2001 to 2012. PATIENTS Two septic shock populations (548 BJH patients and 464 BIDMC patients) that received vasopressin as second-line vasopressor. INTERVENTION Patients who were vasopressin responsive were compared with those who were nonresponsive. Vasopressin response was defined as survival with at least a 20% decrease in maximum daily norepinephrine requirements by one calendar day after vasopressin initiation, without a third-line vasopressor. MEASUREMENTS Two supervised machine learning models (gradient-boosting machine [XGBoost] and elastic net penalized logistic regression [EN]) were trained in 1000 bootstrap replications of the BJH data and externally validated in the BIDMC data to predict vasopressin responsiveness. MAIN RESULTS Vasopressin responsiveness was similar among each cohort (BJH 45% and BIDMC 39%). Mortality was lower for vasopressin responders compared with nonresponders in the BJH (51% vs. 73%) and BIDMC (45% vs. 83%) cohorts, respectively. Both models demonstrated modest discrimination in the training (XGBoost area under receiver operator curve [AUROC] 0.61 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.61-0.61], EN 0.59 [95% CI 0.58-0.59]) and external validation (XGBoost 0.68 [95% CI 0.63-0.73], EN 0.64 [95% CI 0.59-0.69]) datasets. CONCLUSION Vasopressin nonresponsiveness is common and associated with increased mortality. The models' modest performances highlight the complexity of septic shock and indicate that more research will be required before clinical decision support tools can aid in anticipating patient-specific responsiveness to vasopressin.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide recommendations for the appropriate choice of fluid therapy for resuscitation of critically ill patients. DESIGN A consensus committee of 24 experts from the French Society of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine (Société française d'anesthésie et de réanimation, SFAR) and the French Society of Emergency Medicine (Société française de médecine d'urgence, SFMU) was convened. A formal conflict-of-interest policy was developed at the onset of the process and enforced throughout. The entire guideline elaboration process was conducted independently of any industry funding. The authors were advised to follow the principles of the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system to guide their assessment of quality of evidence. The potential drawbacks of making strong recommendations in the presence of low-quality evidence were emphasised. Some recommendations were left ungraded. METHODS Four fields were defined: patients with sepsis or septic shock, patients with haemorrhagic shock, patients with acute brain failure, and patients during the peripartum period. For each field, the panel focused on two questions: (1) Does the use of colloids, as compared to crystalloids, reduce morbidity and mortality, and (2) Does the use of some specific crystalloids effectively reduce morbidity and mortality. Population, intervention, comparison, and outcomes (PICO) questions were reviewed and updated as needed, and evidence profiles were generated. The analysis of the literature and the recommendations were then conducted according to the GRADE methodology. RESULTS The SFAR/SFMU guideline panel provided nine statements on the appropriate choice of fluid therapy for resuscitation of critically ill patients. After two rounds of rating and various amendments, strong agreement was reached for 100% of the recommendations. Out of these recommendations, two have a high level of evidence (Grade 1 +/-), six have a moderate level of evidence (Grade 2 +/-), and one is based on expert opinion. Finally, no recommendation was formulated for two questions. CONCLUSIONS Substantial agreement among experts has been obtained to provide a sizable number of recommendations aimed at optimising the choice of fluid therapy for resuscitation of critically ill patients.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of xuebijing combined with ulinastatin in the treatment of traumatic sepsis and analyze the effects on inflammatory factors and immune function of patients.Methods182 patients with traumatic sepsis were selected from June 2017 to September 2021 in our hospital. The patients were divided into the control group and the observation group. Patients in both groups were given routine treatments such as initial resuscitation, blood transfusion, monitoring of lactic acid to guide fluid replacement, early control of infection source, selection of appropriate antibiotics, correction of acidosis, treatment of primary disease, prevention of hypothermia and stress ulcer, application of vasoactive drugs, application of glucocorticoid and nutritional support. The control group was treated with Xuebijing injection on the basis of routine treatment, and the observation group was given Xuebijing injection combined with ulinastatin treatment on the basis of routine treatment. The APACHE II score was applied to evaluate the patients before and after treatment, and the routine blood indicators, inflammatory factor indicators, immune function indicators and liver function indicators were tested.ResultsAfter the treatment, the APACHE II score of the observation group was (10.35 ± 3.04) lower than that of the control group (15.93 ± 4.52) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the WBC and neutrophils in the observation group (15.19 ± 2.91) and (0.65 ± 0.04) were lower than those in the control group (16.42 ± 3.44) and (0.79 ± 0.05), and the PLT(162.85 ± 43.92) was higher than that in the control group (122.68 ± 36.89) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum PCT, IL-6, TNF-α in the observation group were (11.38 ± 3.05), (10.74 ± 3.82) and (9.82 ± 2.35) lower than those in the control groups (17.34 ± 3.29), (15.28 ± 4.05) and (13.24 ± 3.06) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+ in the observation group were (50.64 ± 4.98), (40.56 ± 4.82), (27.22 ± 3.29), (1.49 ± 0.24) higher than those in the control groups (46.08 ± 4.75), (34.69 ± 4.08), (25.14 ± 3.18), (1.38 ± 0.19) (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of TBIL and AST in the observation group were (12.35 ± 3.82), (25.66 ± 4.49) lower than those in the control group (18.43 ± 4.06), (34.58 ± 5.06) (P < 0.05).ConclusionXubijing combined with ulinastatin has a good effect in the treatment of patients with traumatic sepsis, which can effectively improve the condition, reduce the body’s inflammatory response, and promote the recovery of patients’ immune function and liver function.

Abstract
Sepsis is the major culprit of death among critically ill patients who are hospitalized in intensive care units (ICUs). Although sepsis-related mortality is steadily declining year-by-year due to the continuous understanding of the pathophysiological mechanism on sepsis and improvement of the bundle treatment, sepsis-associated hospitalization is rising worldwide. Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) guidelines are continuously updating, while their content is extremely complex and comprehensive for a precisely implementation in clinical practice. As a consequence, a standardized step-by-step approach for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis is particularly important. In the present study, we proposed a standardized step-by-step approach for the diagnosis and treatment of sepsis using our daily clinical experience and the latest researches, which is close to clinical practice and is easy to implement. The proposed approach may assist clinicians to more effectively diagnose and treat septic patients and avoid the emergence of adverse clinical outcomes.

[PMID: 34966752 PMCID: PMC8710469 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.758902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2021] [Accepted: 11/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Lactated Ringers reduced mortality more than saline in sepsis patients but increased mortality more than saline in traumatic brain injury patients. Method: This prospective cohort study was conducted in a medical intensive care unit (ICU) in central Taiwan. We applied standard sepsis evaluation protocol and identified heart, lung, liver, kidney, and endocrine comorbidities. We also evaluated resuscitation response with central venous pressure, central venous oxygen saturation, and serum lactate level simultaneously. Propensity-score matching and Cox regression were used to estimate mortality. The competing risk model compared the lengths of hospital stays with the subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR). Results: Overall, 938 patients were included in the analysis. The lactated Ringers group had a lower mortality rate (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.59; 95% CI 0.43-0.81) and shorter lengths of hospital stay (SHR, 1.39; 95% C.I. 1.15-1.67) than the saline group; the differences were greater in patients with chronic pulmonary disease and small and non-significant in those with chronic kidney disease, moderate to severe liver disease and cerebral vascular disease. The resuscitation efficacy was the same between fluid types, but serum lactate levels were significantly higher in the lactated Ringers group than in the saline group (0.12 mg/dl/h; 95% C.I.: 0.03, 0.21), especially in chronic liver disease patients. Compared to the saline group, the lactated Ringers group achieved target glucose level earlier in both diabetes and non-diabetes patients. Conclusion: Lactate Ringer's solution provides greater benefits to patients with chronic pulmonary disease than to those with chronic kidney disease, or with moderate to severe liver disease. Comorbidities are important in choosing resuscitation fluid types.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common but underestimated syndrome in the perioperative setting. AKI can be induced by different causes and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, no specific treatment options are available at the moment. RECENT FINDINGS AKI is now understood as being a continuum ranging from normal kidney function over AKI and acute kidney disease to ultimately chronic kidney disease. The KDIGO organization recommend in 2012 implementation of preventive bundles in patients at high risk for AKI. In the perioperative setting, relevant measures include hemodynamic optimization, with careful consideration of blood pressure targets, adequate fluid therapy to maintain organ perfusion and avoidance of hyperglycaemia. These measures are most effective if patients at risk are identified as soon as possible and measures are implemented accordingly. Although current point of care functional biomarkers can detect patients at risk earlier than the established damage biomarkers, some components of the preventive bundle are still under investigation. SUMMARY Good evidence exists for the use of biomarkers to identify individual patients at risk for AKI and for the implementation of haemodynamic optimization, abdication of nephrotoxins, adequate fluid administration using balanced crystalloid solutions and glycaemic control. The data for using colloids or the degree of nephrotoxicity of contrast media still remain inconclusive.

Comparison of hydroxyethylstarch (HES 130/0.4) and 5% human albumin for volume substitution in pediatric neurosurgery: A retrospective, single center study. BMC Res Notes 2021; 14:434. [PMID: 34838152 PMCID: PMC8627096 DOI: 10.1186/s13104-021-05836-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Colloid solutions are commonly used to maintain perioperative fluid homeostasis. In regard to perioperative infant-centered care, data about the impact of colloids are rare. New data suggest a possible positive effect of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) concerning blood brain barrier. Therefore we conduct a retrospective single center study of children scheduled for neurosurgery, age < five with a blood loss > 10% of body blood volume, receiving either 6% HES 130/0.4 or 5% human albumin (HA). Results Out of 913 patients, 86 were included (HES = 30; HA = 56). Compared to HES [16.4 ± 9.2 ml/kg body weight (mean ± SD)] HA group received more colloid volume (25.7 ± 11.3), which had more blood loss [HA 54.8 ± 45.0; HES 30.5 ± 30.0 (%) estimated blood volume] and higher fluid balances. Fibrinogen was decreased and activated partial thromboplastin time was elevated in HA group. Urinary output, creatinine and urea levels did not differ between the two groups. Serum calcium, total protein levels were lower in HES group. HA treated infants tended to have shorter ICU and hospital stays. We conclude that none of the investigated colloid solutions were without leverage to infants. Consequently randomized controlled trials about perioperative goal-directed fluid replacement of children undergoing (neuro)-surgery with major blood loss are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is a syndrome of infection-induced systemic inflammatory response. Conventional treatment combined with Shenfu injection (SFI) has been previously validated clinical effective in alleviating inflammatory response in patients with septic shock. However, evidence-based medical evidence is scant. Herein, we designed the protocol of a proposed study based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines, aiming to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of SFI in patients with sepsis. METHODS Eligible studies reporting the efficacy and safety of SFI in the treatment of sepsis published before August 2021 will be searched from online databases, including the PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Ovid, the Cochrane Library, Wanfang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and China Biology Medicine Disc. The literature selection process will be reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis guidelines. After data extraction and methodological quality evaluation, Stata 12.0 software will be used to synthesize the data through fixed/random effects of meta-analysis models. RESULTS The results of this meta-analysis will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication. CONCLUSION This study will provide reliable evidence-based basis for the clinical application of SFI in the treatment of sepsis. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/KCMDQ.

Efficacy and safety of early target-controlled plasma volume replacement with a balanced gelatine solution versus a balanced electrolyte solution in patients with severe sepsis/septic shock: study protocol, design, and rationale of a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind, multicentric, international clinical trial : GENIUS-Gelatine use in ICU and sepsis. Trials 2021; 22:376. [PMID: 34078421 PMCID: PMC8170449 DOI: 10.1186/s13063-021-05311-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2020] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis is associated with capillary leakage and vasodilatation and leads to hypotension and tissue hypoperfusion. Early plasma volume replacement is required to achieve haemodynamic stability (HDS) and maintain adequate tissue oxygenation. The right choice of fluids to be used for plasma volume replacement (colloid or crystalloid solutions) is still a matter of debate, and large trials investigating the use of colloid solutions containing gelatine are missing. This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of plasma volume replacement using either a combined gelatine-crystalloid regime (1:1 ratio) or a pure crystalloid regime. METHODS This is a prospective, controlled, randomized, double-blind, international, multicentric phase IV study with two parallel groups that is planned to be conducted at European intensive care units (ICUs) in a population of patients with hypovolaemia in severe sepsis/septic shock. A total of 608 eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive either a gelatine-crystalloid regime (Gelaspan® 4% and Sterofundin® ISO, B. Braun Melsungen AG, in a 1:1 ratio) or a pure crystalloid regime (Sterofundin® ISO) for plasma volume replacement. The primary outcome is defined as the time needed to achieve HDS. Plasma volume replacement will be target-controlled, i.e. fluids will only be administered to volume-responsive patients. Volume responsiveness will be assessed through passive leg raising or fluid challenges. The safety and efficacy of both regimens will be assessed daily for 28 days or until ICU discharge (whichever occurs first) as the secondary outcomes of this study. Follow-up visits/calls will be scheduled on day 28 and day 90. DISCUSSION This study aims to generate evidence regarding which regimen-a gelatine-crystalloid regimen or a pure crystalloid regimen-is more effective in achieving HDS in critically ill patients with hypovolaemia. Study participants in both groups will benefit from the increased safety of target-controlled plasma volume replacement, which prevents fluid administration to already haemodynamically stable patients and reduces the risk of harmful fluid overload.
