Hyperlactatemia caused by intra-venous administration of glycerol: A case study
Shinshu Katayama, Shin Nunomiya, Masahiko Wada, Kazuhide Misawa, Shinichiro Tanaka, Kansuke Koyama, Toshitaka KoinumaIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2012 16(4):241-244Glyceol® is an intracranial pressure reducing agent composed of 5% fructose and concentrated glycerol. Although rapid administration of fructose is known to cause lactic acidosis, little is known about hyperlactatemia caused by Glyceol® administration itself in adults. We observed an adult case of hyperlactatemia occurred after administration of 200 mL of Glyceol® over a period of 30 minutes. Since there was...

Prognostic value of T peak-to-end interval for risk stratification after acute myocardial infarction
Conclusion TpTe was significantly and independently associated with increased odds of SCD and is linked to deterioration of Lv functions and myocardial aneurysms. It's highly correlated to presence of LAS and associate with severity of coronary lesions. Patients with prolonged TpTe intervals and dispersions were likely to develop fatal arrhythmias.

Assessment of hypotension during dialysis as a manifestation of myocardial ischemia in patients with chronic renal failure
Conclusions Patients with CKD and regular hemodialysis who experience moderate or severe intradialytic hypotension have significantly higher prevalence of myocardial ischemia and stress induced myocardial dysfunction, than those who experience no or mild intradialytic hypotension.

Use of a novel hemoadsorption device for cytokine removal as adjuvant therapy in a patient with septic shock with multi-organ dysfunction: A case study
Reshma Basu, Sunjay Pathak, Jyoti Goyal, Rajeev Chaudhry, Rati B Goel, Anil BarwalIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2014 18(12):822-824CytoSorb ® (CytoSorbents Corporation, USA) is a novel sorbent hemoadsorption device for cytokine removal. The aim of this study was to examine the clinical use of CytoSorb ® in the management of patient with septic shock. We used this device as an adjuvant to stabilize a young patient with multi-organ failure and severe sepsis with septic shock. A 36-year-old female patient was hospitalized with the complaints of malaise, general body ache, and breathing diffi...

Longitudinal strain in patients with STEMI using speckle tracking echocardiography. Correlation with peak infarction mass and ejection fraction
Conclusions Assessment of IS by echocardiography after PCI in patients with STEMI was superior with GLS and WMSI when compared with LVEF and ESVI. Since global strain is an inexpensive test, these data may be of health economic interest.

The effect of the abdominal perfusion pressure on visceral circulation in critically ill patients with multiorgan dysfunction
Conclusion Low APP and positive fluid gain are associated with deteriorating visceral circulation manifested by high lactate levels and deteriorating liver function.

The effect of ivabradine on long term prevention of major adverse cardiac events in acute coronary syndrome using high-sensitivity C-reactive protein level
Conclusion Administration of ivabradine within 48h of CCU admission decreased hs-CRP level in patients with acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina) but did not decrease the occurrence of major cardiac events in ACS patients.

Early left ventricular dyssynchrony in acute ST elevation myocardial infarction: A gated single photon emission computed tomography study
Conclusion LV dyssynchrony may be acquired acutely very early in STEMI and may have a negative impact on LV ejection fraction.

Elevated Mean Airway Pressure and Central Venous Pressure in the First Day of Mechanical Ventilation Indicated Poor Outcome
This study was performed to determine whether mean airway pressure and central venous pressure in the first day of mechanical ventilation are associated with patient outcomes. Design: Retrospective first 24-hour comparison during ICU stay. Setting: The Department of Critical Care Medicine of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Patients: Patients with mechanical ventilation. Interventions: None. Measurements and Main Results: The clinical data of patients who received mechanical ventilation, especially respiratory and hemodynamic data, were collected and analyzed. In terms of the hemodynamic and perfusion data, the ...

Capillary leak syndrome following snakebite envenomation
V Udayabhaskaran, ET Arun Thomas, Bhagya ShajiIndian Journal of Critical Care Medicine 2017 21(10):698-702Capillary leak syndrome is a unique complication that follows Russell's viper envenomation. This syndrome has a very high fatality rate and is characterized by parotid swelling, chemosis, periorbital edema, hypotension, albuminuria, hypoalbuminemia, and hemoconcentration. This syndrome is frequently recognized from the southern parts of India, especially from the state of Kerala. It has been postulated that a vascular apoptosis inducing component of Russell's viper venom that is not neutralized by...

The Effect of Mechanical Ventilation on Peripheral Perfusion Index and Its Association With the Prognosis of Critically Ill Patients
Conclusions: A higher mean airway pressure and lower perfusion index provided a worse prognosis in mechanically ventilated patients, and it appears that these two variables have a casual interaction.

Autonomic Impairment in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: A Multimodal Neuromonitoring Study
Conclusions: Autonomic impairment, as measured by heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity, is significantly associated with increased mortality after traumatic brain injury. These effects, though partially interlinked, seem to be independent of age, trauma severity, intracranial pressure, or autoregulatory status, and thus represent a discrete phenomenon in the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury. Continuous measurements of heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity in the neuromonitoring setting of severe traumatic brain injury may carry novel pathophysiological and predictive information.
