| 1 | Therapeutic temperature modulation is associated with pulmonary complications in patients with severe traumatic brain injury显示文摘AIM: To examine complications associated with the use of therapeutic temperature modulation(mild hypothermia and normothermia) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury(TBI). METHODS: One hundred and fourteen charts were reviewed. Inclusion criteria were: severe TBI with Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS) < 9, intensive care unit(ICU) stay > 24 h and non-penetrating TBI. Patients were divided into two cohorts: the treatment group received therapeutic temperature modulation(TTM) with continuous surface cooling and indwelling bladder temperature probes. The control group received standard treatment with intermittent acetaminophen for fever. Information regarding complications during the time in the ICU was collected as follows: Pneumonia was identified using a combination of clinical and laboratory data. Pulmonary embolism, pneumothorax and deep venous thrombosis were identified based onimaging results. Cardiac arrhythmias and renal failure were extracted from the clinical documentation. acute respiratory distress syndrome and acute lung injury were determined based on chest imaging and arterial blood gas results. A logistic regression was conducted to predict hospital mortality and a multiple regression was used to assess number and type of clinical complications. RESULTS: One hundred and fourteen patients were included in the analysis(mean age = 41.4, SD = 19.1, 93 males), admitted to the Jackson Memorial Hospital Neuroscience ICU and Ryder Trauma Center(mean GCS = 4.67, range 3-9), were identified and included in the analysis. Method of injury included motor vehicle accident(n = 29), motor cycle crash(n = 220), blunt head trauma(n = 212), fall(n = 229), pedestrian hit by car(n = 216), and gunshot wound to the head(n = 27). Ethnicity was primarily Caucasian(n = 260), as well as Hispanic(n = 227) and African American(n = 223); four patients had unknown ethnicity. Patients received either TTM(43) or standard therapy(71). Within the TTM group eight patients were treated with normothermia after TBI and 35 patients were treated with hypothermia. A logistic regression predicting in hospital mortality with age, GCS, and TM demonstrated that GCS(Beta = 0.572, P < 0.01) and age(Beta =-0.029) but not temperature modulation(Beta = 0.797, ns) were significant predictors of in-hospital mortality [χ2(3) = 22.27, P < 0.01] A multiple regression predicting number of complications demonstrated that receiving TTM was the main contributor and was associated with a higher number of pulmonary complications(t =-3.425, P = 0.001). CONCLUSION: Exposure to TTM is associated with an increase in pulmonary complications. These findings support more attention to these complications in studies of TTM in TBI patients. | Kristine H O’Phelan Amedeo Merenda Katherine G Denny Kassandra E Zaila Cynthia Gonzalez | 2015 | World Journal of Critical Care Medicine2015,4,4: | 18 |
| 2 | Epistaxis in end stage liver disease masquerading as severe upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage显示文摘AIM:To describe the prevalence,diagnosis,treatment,and outcomes of end stage liver disease(ESLD) patients with severe epistaxis thought to be severe upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage(UGIH).METHODS:This observational single center study included all consecutive patients with ESLD and epistaxis identified from consecutive subjects hospitalized with suspected UGIH and prospectively enrolled in our databases of severe UGIH between 1998 and 2011.RESULTS:A total of 1249 patients were registered for severe UGIH in the data basis,461(36.9%) were cirrhotics. Epistaxis rather than UGIH was the bleeding source in 20 patients. All patients had severe coagulopathy. Epistaxis was initially controlled in all cases. Fifteen(75%) subjects required posterior nasal packing and 2(10%) embolization in addition to correction of coagulopathy. Five(25%) patients died in the hospital,12(60%) received orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT),and 3(15%) were discharged without OLT. The mortality rate was 63% in patients without OLT.CONCLUSION:Severe epistaxis in patients with ESLD is(1) a diagnosis of exclusion that requires upper endoscopy to exclude severe UGIH;and(2) associated with a high mortality rate in patients not receiving OLT. | Marine Camus Dennis M Jensen Jason D Matthews Gordon V Ohning Thomas O Kovacs Rome Jutabha Kevin A Ghassemi Gustavo A Machicado Gareth S Dulai | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,38: | 3 |
