Survey of Canadian critical care physicians' knowledge and attitudes towards legislative aspects of the deceased organ donation system.
CONCLUSIONS: While a majority of critical care physicians supported opt-out consent and mandatory referral, many were neutral or against it. Many were unaware of existing laws and had variable opinions on how to ensure accountability. Efforts to increase understanding of how legislative models influence practice are required for any law to achieve its desired effect. PMID: 32696225 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Oxygen in critical care
Publication date: August 2014 Source:Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care, Volume 4, Issue 4 Author(s): Hon Liang Tan , Olivia Wijeweera Oxygen is widely used in critical care, yet there is surprisingly little evidence guiding its use. Most major guidelines recommending the use of oxygen therapy have yet to recommend titration to achieve normoxemia. As a consequence, a significant portion of critically ill patients are subjected to hyperoxia. Interest in ideal oxygen therapy is gathering pace and research is beginning to challenge previous presumptions that oxygen therapy is innocuous with increasing reports of potent...

Performance of influenza-specific triage tools in an H1N1-positive cohort: P/F ratio better predicts the need for mechanical ventilation and critical care admission
Conclusions The P/F ratio was a better predictor of need for mechanical ventilation than STSS. The P/F ratio is a simple and accepted determinant of hypoxaemia and should be used if secondary triaging becomes necessary during future influenza pandemics.

Critical care management of pulmonary hypertension
AbstractPatients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) can be extremely challenging to manage in the critical care setting. In this article we review the classification, diagnosis, and chronic management of PH. An approach to the management of the critically unwell PH patient is discussed. Initial management involves treating underlying precipitants of deterioration and optimizing right ventricular (RV) preload. Reduction of RV afterload with pulmonary vasodilators is also required. Augmentation of cardiac function and perfusion pressures with inotropes and vasopressors may additionally be needed. Advanced renal and respiratory...
