Systematic review of uncalibrated arterial pressure waveform analysis to determine cardiac output and stroke volume variation
Summary The FloTrac/Vigileo™, introduced in 2005, uses arterial pressure waveform analysis to calculate cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume variation (SVV) without external calibration. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the performance of the system. Sixty-five full manuscripts on validation of CO measurements in humans, published in English, were retrieved; these included 2234 patients and 44 592 observations. Results have been analysed according to underlying patient conditions, that is, general critical illness and surgery as normodynamic conditions, cardiac and (post)cardiac surgery as hypodynami...

Perioperative Care of Patients at High Risk for Stroke during or after Non-Cardiac, Non-Neurologic Surgery: Consensus Statement from the Society for Neuroscience in Anesthesiology and Critical Care*
This document is supported by the American Society of Anesthesiologists.**Perioperative stroke can be a catastrophic outcome for surgical patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This consensus statement from the Society for Neuroscience in Anesthesiology and Critical Care provides evidence-based recommendations and opinions regarding the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care of patients at high risk for the complication.

Impact of Anesthesia on Mortality During Endovascular Clot Removal for Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background:Endovascular clot retrieval is a technique available for removing intracranial arterial occlusions in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). This rescue therapy can be performed with moderate conscious sedation (CS) or general anesthesia (GA). The effect of GA on clinical outcome in AIS remains controversial. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated whether the use of CS or GA during endovascular intervention for AIS influenced outcomes. Methods:Patients who underwent emergent endovascular intervention for intracranial arterial occlusion during the years 2006 to 2012 were included in this study. Statistical analysis usi...

The Brain Relaxation and Cerebral Metabolism in Stroke Volume Variation–directed Fluid Therapy During Supratentorial Tumors Resection: Crystalloid Solution Versus Colloid Solution
Background:Compared with goal-directed crystalloid therapy, goal-directed colloid therapy during high-risk surgery may improve postoperative outcome. Whether intraoperative fluid therapy based on goal-directed protocol with different types of fluid has distinctive effects on brain relaxation and cerebral metabolism during craniotomy remains unclear. Methods:Forty patients with supratentorial brain tumors undergoing craniotomy were randomly assigned to either a Ringer’s Lactate-based goal-directed group (LR group, n=20) or a 6% hydroxyethyl starch–based goal-directed group (HES group, n=20). The goal was achieved by mai...

Hemorrhagic stroke and new oral anticoagulants.
Abstract The recent release of new oral anticoagulants (NOAC) raises the question of the management of intracranial hemorrhage occurring during treatment with these molecules. Dabigatran, rivaroxaban and apixaban have different pharmacological characteristics that physicians need to know to adjust their prescription to each patient. Studies of efficacy and safety prior to the marketing of these molecules showed a decreased risk of intracranial hemorrhage compared with vitamin K antagonists. However, no reliable data are available regarding the prognosis of these hemorrhages occurring during NOAC treatment. In addi...

Effect of Increasing Heart Rate and Tidal Volume on Stroke Volume Variability in Vascular Surgery Patients
Because heart rate affects ventricular filling, the aim of the present study was to assess the effects of increasing heart rate and tidal volume on stroke volume variability to determine whether this dynamic index is heart-rate dependent.

Pneumoperitoneum affects stroke volume variation in humans
Conclusion A pneumoperitoneum increased SVV, which is similar to the findings of previous animal studies but is different from a previous clinical study. Upon release of the pneumoperitoneum, SVV decreased significantly, which is new information. SVV values must be estimated cautiously during a pneumoperitoneum.

Volatile sedation with sevoflurane in intensive care patients with acute stroke or subarachnoid haemorrhage using AnaConDa(R): an observational study
Conclusion Sevoflurane led to sufficient sedation, but decreased MAP and CPP in a selected cerebrovascular neurocritical care population. In about a third of these patients, severe adverse reactions, including intolerable ICP increases, were observed.

Management of heat stroke
Publication date: June 2015 Source:Trends in Anaesthesia and Critical Care, Volume 5, Issues 2–3 Author(s): Yoo Kuen Chan , Mafeitzeral Mamat Heat stroke is a life threatening condition that is more of an issue during hot summers especially during heat waves. It also affects athletes undergoing intense exercise where their organizers fail to prepare them appropriately to cope with heat issues. Strategies to prevent the condition include education of care providers to recognize the threat earlier, to pressure relevant authorities to have appropriate policies in place to guide coordination of care and provide assistance ...

Cognitive Dysfunction, Delirium, and Stroke in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Neurologic injury in the form of cognitive decline, delirium, and stroke are common phenomena in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and continues to be one of the most common complication after cardiac surgery, in spite of improvements in mortality and and improved surgical and anesthetic techniques. These complications lead to a significant increase in length of stay in the intensive care unit, increased length of hospital admission, and functional impairment, resulting in not only profound negative effects on patients who experience these complications, but also to increased costs of medical care and delivery. We discus...
