Este é o terceiro episódio da nossa série especial realizada em parceria com a Pfizer, em que trazemos discussões que conectam ciência e prática clínica para enfrentar desafios no combate às infecções.
In this episode of Critical Matters, Dr. Zanotti discusses the use of intravenous albumin in critical care. He is joined by D. Jeannie Callum, Director of Transfusion Medicine and Professor of Pathology and Molecular Medicine at Queens University in Ontario, Canada. Dr. Callum's research focuses on blood utilization, hemostasis in the bleeding patient, and transfusion-related errors. She has received numerous awards and published extensively. Dr. Callum is the lead author of “Use of Intravenous Albumin: A Guidelines from the International Collaboration for Transfusion Medicine Guidelines,” published earlier this year in CHEST.

Hosts Angela Huttner & Erin McCreary welcome Prof. David Paterson (Singapore) and Prof. Josh Davis (Newcastle, Australia) to discuss the design and results of the BLING-3 trial, which compared continuous infusion of beta-lactam antibiotics to standard intermittent dosing in 7000 critically ill patients across 104 intensive-care units. In unadjusted analyses, the trial did not show a statistically significant mortality benefit with continuous infusion. Yet in prespecified adjusted analyses, there was a statistically significant reduction in mortality, and a meta-analysis of randomized trials published simultaneously with the BLING-3 trial showed the same. As the two ID doctors on the BLING team, Profs. Paterson and Davis offer context and insights into what these results mean and how they might affect your clinical practice.

Dr. Casey Clements spent two hours breaking down the history and influences in sepsis care over the past three decades and going through the best practices in today's emergency medicine. Do you know how Sepsis is defined currently? What is the difference between SEP - 1 and surviving sepsis campaign? What is the role of steroids or vitamin C? Can you resuscitate these patients with albumin? These and so many more questions will be answered in this two part series. So join Venk like vancomycin, and Alex (aka Zosyn) and Casey "not-cidal" Clements in these amazing episodes.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Prior, smaller studies showed intravenous Vitamin C given to patients with sepsis significantly improved patient mortality and additional outcomes. A recently published, randomized control trial with >800 ICU patients who received up to 4 days of IV Vit C or placebo concluded that the end points of death or persistent organ dysfunction at 28 days were unaffected by Vitamin C administration. There were no adverse safety outcomes associated with Vitamin C administration. Based on this trial, it is unlikely that Vitamin C will become a mainstay of treatment for sepsis patients.

***ALL THE TRIGGERS*** Seriously, we discuss the TN House Bill that is attempting to be passed regarding abortion, the terrible neglectful death of Savita Halappanavar caused by Severe Sepsis and miscarriage. Join us in this episode about the heartbreaking death of Savita Halappanavar. She was a beautiful, first time mom. She had her whole life ahead of her. However, due to the exceedingly strict abortion ban in Ireland at the time (2012), she senselessly lost her life. This is a full T-Rex episode and there were tears.

A Systematic Review It is commonly stated and assumed that mortality from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is decreasing.We found that mortality from ARDS has not decreased substantially since the publication of a consensus definition in 1994. Based on our findings, a baseline mortality risk from ARDS of 40 to 45% for observational studies and 35 to 40% for randomized control trials should be expected. These results highlight the need for future effective therapeutic interventions for this highly lethal syndrome.https://www.atsjournals.org/doi/full/10.1164/rccm.200805-722oc From Up To Date:Numerous studies suggest that survival has improved over time [2,9,10,11]. As an example, an observational study of 2451 patients who had enrolled in ARDSNet randomized trials found a fall in mortality from 35 to 26 percent between 1996 and 2005 [10]. To the extent that mortality may be decreasing with time, several issues should be considered:● It is not known if mortality has decreased among patients who received their care outside of a specialized center or a clinical trial.● The improved mortality may be attributable to patients who have ARDS related to risk factors other than sepsis, such as trauma [9].● To the extent that mortality has decreased, the reasons are uncertain. Likely causes include better supportive care and improved ventilatory strategies, such as low tidal volume ventilation [10,12,13]Early Goal-Directed Therapy in the Treatment of Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock by Emanuel Rivers https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa010307 Early Goal Directed Therapy from NephMadness 2015 https://ajkdblog.org/2015/03/01/nephmadness-2015-critical-care-nephrology-region/#Early Counter point by NSMC graduate Kamran Boka https://ajkdblog.org/2015/03/18/nephmadness-2015-process-arise-promise-and-the-promise-of-early-goal-directed-therapy/ Furosemide stress test https://jasn.asnjournals.org/content/26/8/2023 EM Crit looks at the furosemide stress test: https://emcrit.org/pulmcrit/furosemide-stress-test/ ASN Kidney Week Biomarker debate between Faubel and Koyner. https://www.asn-online.org/education/kidneyweek/2020/program-session-details.aspx?sessId=371699&sessPar=371678 NAD therapy Samir Parikh Don Seldin Young Investigator Award winner 2019.Sarah Faubel's Dream RCT https://ukidney.com/nephrology-resources/dream-rct-initiative/dream-rct-entries/item/nephrologist-driven-rrt-usual-late-or-early-start-for-acute-kidney-injury Perry Wilson's DreamRCT https://www.medpagetoday.com/Nephrology/DreamRCT/53876 Steve Coca on “Permissive AKI” with treatment of heart failure https://www.kidney-international.org/article/S0085-2538(19)30708-2/pdf Edward Clark on HIRRT: Mechanisms for hemodynamic instability related to renal replacement therapy: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31407042/ Cytokine adsorption in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (CYCOV): a single centre, open-label, randomised, controlled trial https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanres/article/PIIS2213-2600(21)00177-6/fulltext The Handbook of Critical Care Nephrology Amazon | Target (actually not available

The Elective Rotation: A Critical Care Hospital Pharmacy Podcast
Show notes at pharmacyjoe.com/episode520. In this episode, I ll discuss whether immediate vs early antibiotic administration improves outcomes in severe sepsis. The post 520: Does immediate vs early antibiotic administration improve outcomes in severe sepsis? appeared first on Pharmacy Joe.
Author: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: Previously, trials had shown promising evidence that vitamin C may improve mortality rates in patients with sepsis or septic shock. A 2017 retrospective before-after study gave a “cocktail” of hydrocortisone, vitamin C, and thiamine to patients with severe sepsis or in septic shock and reported a decrease in mortality from 40% to 8%. A 2020 randomized controlled trial demonstrated that giving patients hydrocortisone, vitamin C, and thiamine showed no benefits in improving sepsis outcomes. Currently use of Vitamin C in sepsis and septic shock remains controversial due to lack of sufficient data References 1) Marik PE, Khangoora V, Rivera R, Hooper MH, Catravas J.

In this episode, we discuss treatment recommendations found in recent literature, in regards to fluid administration in septic shock. We also discuss the updates to the definition of sepsis, and the criteria for diagnosing a patient with sepsis. In this episode, we discuss SOFA, and QSOFA, as well as the elimination of SIRS and "Severe Sepsis" from the sepsis spectrum. Join us as we dive in to the pathophysiology of septic shock, and how fluid administration is still considered a staple treatment. We discuss how third spacing occurs secondary to overzealous fluid administration, resulting in potential worsening of hypoperfused tissues and organs. In this episode, we also discuss the ProMISe, ARISE, and CENSER trials, and discuss the suggestions of early vasopressor therapy using norepinephrine has proven to be beneficial. We also briefly discuss the potential benefits of pre-hospital administration of broad spectrum antibiotics, and the Phantasy trial, and propose to revisit a similar study with more objective methods.

In this episode of Critical Matters, we will discuss the recently published CITRIS-ALI clinical trial evaluating the role of high dose Vitamin C in severe sepsis and ARDS. Our guest is Dr. Emily Brant. Dr. Brant is a practicing intensivist and faculty at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. She was the lead author in the JAMA editorial entitled “Is High-Dose Vitamin C Beneficial for Patients with Sepsis?” which was published alongside the CITRIS-ALI Clinical Trial.

Ensuring patients get the right treatment at the right time is a core ambition of a modern healthcare system, and there is no better example of this than the early administration of antibiotics in patients with severe sepsis. Daniel Cudini is an Intensive Care Paramedic and Clinical Support Officer with Ambulance Victoria, and is a noted prehospital researcher. He joins Todd on the podcast to chat about the PASS study - Paramedic Antibiotic administration in Severe Sepsis.

So the three of us are back together and going to take on Sepsis! It's vital to have a sound understanding of sepsis. It has a huge morbidity and mortality but importantly there is so much that we can do both prehospital and in hospital to improve patient outcomes. In the podcast we cover the following; Definitions Scale of problem Different bodies; NICE/Sepsis Trust/3rd international consensus definition including qSOFA Handover and pre alerts Treatment; Sepsis 6 The evidence base behind treatment Contentious areas Prehospital abx Fever control Steroids ETCO2 We hope the podcast helps refresh your knowledge on the topic and brings about some clarity on some contentious points. As always don't just take our word for it, go and have a look at the primary literature referenced below. Enjoy!

Mitchell Levy, MD, FCCM, and Jean-Louis Vincent, MD, PhD, FCCM, discuss their article in the October issue of Critical Care Medicine. The article, "Early Changes in Organ Function Predict Eventual Survival in Severe Sepsis," can help clinicians identify variables associated with good outcomes in sepsis. The authors explain that if patients with sepsis are not getting better at the end of 24 hours, they may be getting worse. (Critical Care Medicine, Volume 33(issue 10) October 2005 pp 2194-2201).
