Comparison of hemodynamic monitoring between transesophageal Doppler and ultrasonography-guided inferior vena cava distensibility in supine versus prone position: A pilot study
Conclusion: IVC variability can be observed in acute respiratory distress syndrome patients in prone position. Inferior Vena Cava Distensibility correlates with flow time in both the positions.

Acute reversible ischemic stroke after snake bite
Alok Kumar Sahoo, Bhavna SriramkaIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2018 22(8):611-612Snake bite is very common in India. Ischemic stroke after snake bite has been described in the literature sparsely. Furthermore, the onset of stroke and its clinical reversibility is a rarity. Here, we present a case of snake bite with ischemic stroke which has clinically reversible outcome.

An interesting presentation of pheochromocytoma
We present a case of a 41-year-old male patient who presented with cerebellar infarct and found to have aortic thrombi and later developed acute myocardial infaction during same hospitalization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of this kind.

Changes in B-type natriuretic peptide and related hemodynamic parameters following a fluid challenge in critically ill patients with severe sepsis or septic shock
Conclusions: An increase in BNP soon after a fluid challenge may have some predictive utility of a large LVEDd, which in turn can be used to independently predict the SV response to a fluid challenge.

Arrive: A retrospective registry of Indian patients with venous thromboembolism
Conclusion: Acute DVT alone was responsible for the substantial burden of VTE in Indian patients. Bleeding was not the limiting factor for anticoagulant treatment in most patients.

Brain lesions in eclampsia: A series of 39 cases admitted in an Intensive Care Unit
Y Brouh, Konan Kouassi Jean, A Ouattara, Y Tétchi, Y Pete, N Koffi, C Abhé, M KaneIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2016 20(3):178-181The aim of this study was to identify the encephalic lesions in the eclampsia occurrences. Within a period of 18 months, computed tomography (CT) of the brain was performed in all patients admitted in intensive care for eclampsia. These CTs were analyzed and intracerebral lesions were identified. Thirty-nine patients were included. We noted 10 cases of ischemic stroke, 9 cases of cerebral edema, and 3 cases of hemorrhagic stroke and subarachnoid hemorrhage. The CT scan c...

Cerebral venous thrombosis presenting with intracerebral hemorrhage in a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria
Gentle Sunder Shrestha, Bishesh Sharma Poudyal, Gopal Sedain, Khandokar Imran Mahmud, Niranja AcharyaIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2016 20(2):117-119Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is an uncommon cause of stroke. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare type of hemolytic anemia, frequently associated with thrombophilia. PNH may rarely present with CVT. Approximately, one-third of the patients with CVT develop cerebral hemorrhage. Here, we present a rare combination of CVT presenting with intracerebral hemorrhage in a patient with PNH. High index of suspicion is needed to avoid misdiagnosis. Patient w...

Targeted temperature management: Current evidence and practices in critical care
Saurabh Saigal, Jai Prakash Sharma, Ritika Dhurwe, Sanjay Kumar, Mohan GurjarIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2015 19(9):537-546Targeted temperature management (TTM) in today's modern era, especially in intensive care units represents a promising multifaceted therapy for a variety of conditions. Though hypothermia is being used since Hippocratic era, the renewed interest of late has been since early 21 st century. There have been multiple advancements in this field and varieties of cooling devices are available at present. TTM requires careful titration of its depth, duration and rewarming as it is associate...

The comparison of stroke volume variation with central venous pressure in predicting fluid responsiveness in septic patients with acute circulatory failure
Conclusions: When predicting fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients in septic shock, SVV is more effective than CVP. Nevertheless, the overall correlation of baseline SVV with increases in CI remains poor. Trends in SVV, as reflected by decreases with volume replacement, seem to correlate much better with increases in CI.

Evolving concepts of hemodynamic monitoring for critically ill patients
Olfa Hamzaoui, Xavier Monnet, Jean-Louis TeboulIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2015 19(4):220-226The last decades have been characterized by a continuous evolution of hemodynamic monitoring techniques from intermittent toward continuous and real-time measurements and from an invasive towards a less invasive approach. The latter approach uses ultrasounds and pulse contour analysis techniques that have been developed over the last 15 years. During the same period, the concept of prediction of fluid responsiveness has also been developed and dynamic indices such as pulse pressure variation, stroke volume variation, a...
