Abstract

IntroductionSevere hypoxemia is the leading cause of admission in intensive care (ICU) in patients with COVID-19 related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In these patients, several studies reported a left shift of the oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve associated with a lower mortality. However, these results are conflicting, as these studies include few patients and often no control groups. Moreover, the calculation of P50, representing the PaO2 value at which 50% of hemoglobin is saturated, is not corrected for factors known to influence it (pH, PaCO2 or temperature). For all of these reasons, we compared the corrected P50 between ICU patients with severe COVID-19 related ARDS on mechanical ventilation or not, and ARDS from other causes. We investigated the evolution of the corrected P50 during the first 3 days of ICU and its relationship with ICU mortality.Methods and PatientsWe retrospectively calculated the corrected P50 in three groups of patients: intubated and mechanically ventilated COVID-19 related ARDS, non-intubated COVID-19 related ARDS and intubated patients with ARDS due to other infectious causes. The corrected P50 was calculated, on the worst blood gas analysis on days 1 and 3 of ICU admission, by the formula of Hill but modified by Dash et al., controlled for pH, PaCO2 and temperature. We collected ICU mortality.Results463 blood gas analysis at days 1 and 3 from 214 ICU COVID-19 related ARDS patients (114 with intubation and 100 without) and 35 ICU patients with ARDS from other causes were analyzed. All patients were severely hypoxemic: PaO2/FiO2 of 76 [58-108] mmHg for intubated COVID-19, 79 [60-108] mmHg for non-intubated COVID-19 and 142 [78-197] mmHg for the third group (p < 0.001). The mortality rate was higher in intubated COVID-19 related ARDS patients (44.7 versus 14 versus 37% in ARDS from other causes; p < 0.001). The corrected P50 was significantly lower in COVID-19 patients, especially in non- intubated patients (21.2 [18.8–25.2] mmHg vs. 25.5 [19.2–30.3] mmHg in intubated patients; compared to ARDS from other causes: 27.2 [23.3-35.4] mmHg; p < 0.001. The corrected P50 does not change over the first 3 days, except for the non intubated COVID-19 related ARDS and is not correlated with ICU mortality (odds ratio = 0.98 [0.95-1.03]; p = 0.51), in contrast of PaO2/FiO2 and ICU gravity scores.ConclusionThe oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve at ICU admission was left shifting in severe COVID-19 related ARDS patients regardless of the type of ventilation. This deviation increases the third day only in non-intubated COVID-19 related ARDS and was not related to the outcome.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES:. Anemia has been associated with an increased risk of both cardiac arrest and stroke, frequent complications of COVID-19. The effect of hemoglobin level at ICU admission on a composite outcome of cardiac arrest or stroke in an international cohort of COVID-19 patients was investigated. DESIGN:. Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected database. SETTING:. A registry of COVID-19 patients admitted to ICUs at over 370 international sites was reviewed for patients diagnosed with cardiac arrest or stroke up to 30 days after ICU admission. Anemia was defined as: normal (hemoglobin ≥ 12.0 g/dL for women, ≥ 13.5 g/dL for men), mild (hemoglobin 10.0–11.9 g/dL for women, 10.0–13.4 g/dL for men), moderate (hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 and < 10.0 g/dL for women and men), and severe (hemoglobin < 8.0 g/dL for women and men). PATIENTS:. Patients older than 18 years with acute COVID-19 infection in the ICU. INTERVENTIONS:. None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:. Of 6926 patients (median age = 59 yr, male = 65%), 760 patients (11.0%) experienced stroke (2.0%) and/or cardiac arrest (9.4%). Cardiac arrest or stroke was more common in patients with low hemoglobin, occurring in 12.8% of patients with normal hemoglobin, 13.3% of patients with mild anemia, and 16.7% of patients with moderate/severe anemia. Time to stroke or cardiac arrest by anemia status was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards regression with death as a competing risk. Covariates selected through clinical knowledge were age, sex, comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and cardiac or neurologic conditions), pandemic era, country income, mechanical ventilation, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Moderate/severe anemia was associated with a higher risk of cardiac arrest or stroke (hazard ratio, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.05–1.67). CONCLUSIONS:. In an international registry of ICU patients with COVID-19, moderate/severe anemia was associated with increased hazard of cardiac arrest or stroke.

Abstract

Background: COVID-19 is primarily known as a respiratory illness; however, many patients present to hospital without respiratory symptoms. The association between non-respiratory presentations of COVID-19 and outcomes remains unclear. We investigated risk factors and clinical outcomes in patients with no respiratory symptoms (NRS) and respiratory symptoms (RS) at hospital admission. Methods: This study describes clinical features, physiological parameters, and outcomes of hospitalised COVID-19 patients, stratified by the presence or absence of respiratory symptoms at hospital admission. RS patients had one or more of: cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, runny nose or wheezing; while NRS patients did not. Results: Of 178,640 patients in the study, 86.4 % presented with RS, while 13.6 % had NRS. NRS patients were older (median age: NRS: 74 vs RS: 65) and less likely to be admitted to the ICU (NRS: 36.7 % vs RS: 37.5 %). NRS patients had a higher crude in-hospital case-fatality ratio (NRS 41.1 % vs. RS 32.0 %), but a lower risk of death after adjusting for confounders (HR 0.88 [0.83–0.93]). Conclusion: Approximately one in seven COVID-19 patients presented at hospital admission without respiratory symptoms. These patients were older, had lower ICU admission rates, and had a lower risk of in-hospital mortality after adjusting for confounders.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES:. RBCs from critically ill patients have depressed deformability, especially in sepsis. Prolonged exposure of RBCs from healthy volunteers to physiologic shear stress (the preconditioning technique) has been associated with improved deformability, but the effect of preconditioning on RBCs from critically ill patients with or without sepsis has never been studied. DESIGN:. Prospective study. SETTING:. A 32-bed medico-surgical ICU and a university-affiliated cell biology laboratory. SUBJECTS:. RBCs from 26 healthy volunteers and 40 critically ill patients (20 with and 20 without sepsis). INTERVENTIONS:. RBC deformability was measured using the elongation index (EI) with an ektacytometer, at shear stress levels ranging from 0.3 to 50 Pa. To assess the effects of preconditioning in the three groups, we measured EI after first applying a shear stress of 5 Pa for 300 seconds. To study the potential mechanisms involved in preconditioning, we looked at deformability after incubation of an RBC solution from the healthy volunteers with glutaraldehyde, a membrane-stabilizing protein, and neuraminidase, an enzyme that releases membrane sialic acid. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS:. Baseline RBC deformability was significantly depressed in the septic patients compared with the volunteers at all shear stress levels greater than or equal to 4.89 Pa. Preconditioning improved deformability only in the volunteers (at shear stress levels of 0.48 and 0.76 Pa). Among the critically ill patients, preconditioning worsened RBC deformability at higher shear stress levels. After incubation (with glutaraldehyde or neuraminidase) of RBCs from five volunteers in whom preconditioning had significantly improved deformability, the positive effect of preconditioning was lost with glutaraldehyde. CONCLUSIONS:. RBC deformability is depressed in septic patients. There was a deleterious effect of preconditioning on RBC deformability in septic patients, unlike the positive effect on RBCs from healthy volunteers. The effect of preconditioning may be associated with elasticity of the cell membrane.

Abstract

BackgroundDuring sepsis, red blood cell (RBC) deformability is altered. Persistence of these alterations is associated with poor outcome. Activation of the complement system is enhanced during sepsis and RBCs are protected by membrane surface proteins like CD35, CD55 and CD59. In malaria characterized by severe anemia, a study reported links between the modifications of the expression of these RBCs membrane proteins and erythrophagocytosis. We studied the evolution of RBCs deformability and the expression of RBC membrane surface IgG and regulatory proteins in septic patients.MethodsBy flow cytometry technics, we measured at ICU admission and at day 3–5, the RBC membrane expression of IgG and complement proteins (CD35, 55, 59) in septic patients compared to RBCs from healthy volunteers. Results were expressed in percentage of RBCs positive for the protein. RBC shape was assessed using Pearson's second coefficient of dissymmetry (PCD) on the histogram obtained with a flow cytometer technique. A null value represents a perfect spherical shape. RBC deformability was determined using ektacytometry by the elongation index in relation to the shear stress (0.3–50 Pa) applied to the RBC membrane. A higher elongation index indicates greater RBC deformability.ResultsRBCs from 11 septic patients were compared to RBCs from 21 volunteers. At ICU admission, RBCs from septic patients were significantly more spherical and RBC deformability was significantly lower in septic patients for all shear stress ≥1.93 Pa. These alterations of shape and deformability persists at day 3–5. We observed a significant decrease at ICU admission only in CD35 expression on RBCs from septic patients. This low expression remained at day 3–5.ConclusionsWe observed in RBCs from septic patients a rapid decrease expression of CD35 membrane protein protecting against complement activation. These modifications associated with altered RBC deformability and shape could facilitate erythrophagocytosis, contributing to anemia observed in sepsis. Other studies with a large number of patients and assessment of erythrophagocytosis were needed to confirm these preliminary data.

Abstract

Inflammatory processes are common in intensive care (ICU) patients and can induce multiple changes in metabolism, leading to increased risks of morbidity and mortality. Metabolomics enables these modifications to be studied and identifies a patient’s metabolic profile. The objective is to precise if the use of metabolomics at ICU admission can help in prognostication. This is a prospective ex-vivo study, realized in a university laboratory and a medico-surgical ICU. Metabolic profiles were analyzed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance. Using multivariable analysis, we compared metabolic profiles of volunteers and ICU patients divided into predefined subgroups: sepsis, septic shock, other shock and ICU controls. We also assessed possible correlations between metabolites and mortality. One hundred and eleven patients were included within 24 h of ICU admission, and 19 healthy volunteers. The ICU mortality rate was 15%. Metabolic profiles were different in ICU patients compared to healthy volunteers (p < 0.001). Among the ICU patients, only the subgroup of patients with septic shock had significant differences compared to the ICU control patients in several metabolites: pyruvate, lactate, carnitine, phenylalanine, urea, creatine, creatinine and myo-inositol. However, there was no correlation between these metabolite profiles and mortality. On the first day of ICU admission, we observed changes in some metabolic products in patients with septic shock, suggesting increased anaerobic glycolysis, proteolysis, lipolysis and gluconeogenesis. These changes were not correlated with prognosis.

Several studies have reported that the microcirculation responds adequately to hypoxia in COVID-19 patients by increasing oxygen availability, in contrast to the inadequate response observed in patients with bacterial sepsis. Red blood cells (RBCs), the key cells for oxygen transport, and notably their rheology, are altered during bacterial sepsis, but few data are available in patients with COVID-19.MethodsIn this prospective, non-interventional study, shape was assessed on admission (or inclusion for the volunteers) using Pearson’s second coefficient of dissymmetry (PCD) on the histogram obtained with a flow cytometer technique. A null value represents a perfect spherical shape. RBC deformability was determined using ektacytometry by the elongation index in relation to the shear stress (0.3 to 50 Pa) applied to the RBC membrane. A higher elongation index indicates greater RBC deformability. Results were compared across groups. Scanning electronic microscopy was performed on RBCs from COVID-19 patients. RBC shape and deformability were also assessed on days 3 and 7 in COVID-19 patients.ResultsForty-nine ICU patients were included (30 with COVID-19 ARDS and 19 with bacterial sepsis). ARDS was more severe in patients with COVID-19 than in those with sepsis (PaO2/FiO2 99 [73–154] vs. 270 [239–295] mmHg p

Abstract

IMPORTANCE:. Factors associated with mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 patients on invasive mechanical ventilation are still not fully elucidated. OBJECTIVES:. To identify patient-level parameters, readily available at the bedside, associated with the risk of in-hospital mortality within 28 days from commencement of invasive mechanical ventilation or coronavirus disease 2019. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:. Prospective observational cohort study by the global Coronavirus Disease 2019 Critical Care Consortium. Patients with laboratory-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 requiring invasive mechanical ventilation from February 2, 2020, to May 15, 2021. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES:. Patient characteristics and clinical data were assessed upon ICU admission, the commencement of invasive mechanical ventilation and for 28 days thereafter. We primarily aimed to identify time-independent and time-dependent risk factors for 28-day invasive mechanical ventilation mortality. RESULTS:. One-thousand five-hundred eighty-seven patients were included in the survival analysis; 588 patients died in hospital within 28 days of commencing invasive mechanical ventilation (37%). Cox-regression analysis identified associations between the hazard of 28-day invasive mechanical ventilation mortality with age (hazard ratio, 1.26 per 10-yr increase in age; 95% CI, 1.16–1.37; p < 0.001), positive end-expiratory pressure upon commencement of invasive mechanical ventilation (hazard ratio, 0.81 per 5 cm H2O increase; 95% CI, 0.67–0.97; p = 0.02). Time-dependent parameters associated with 28-day invasive mechanical ventilation mortality were serum creatinine (hazard ratio, 1.28 per doubling; 95% CI, 1.15–1.41; p < 0.001), lactate (hazard ratio, 1.22 per doubling; 95% CI, 1.11–1.34; p < 0.001), Paco2 (hazard ratio, 1.63 per doubling; 95% CI, 1.19–2.25; p < 0.001), pH (hazard ratio, 0.89 per 0.1 increase; 95% CI, 0.8–14; p = 0.041), Pao2/Fio2 (hazard ratio, 0.58 per doubling; 95% CI, 0.52–0.66; p < 0.001), and mean arterial pressure (hazard ratio, 0.92 per 10 mm Hg increase; 95% CI, 0.88–0.97; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE:. This international study suggests that in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 on invasive mechanical ventilation, older age and clinically relevant variables monitored at baseline or sequentially during the course of invasive mechanical ventilation are associated with 28-day invasive mechanical ventilation mortality hazard. Further investigation is warranted to validate any causative roles these parameters might play in influencing clinical outcomes.

Abstract

Erythrocytes have been long considered as “dead” cells with transport of oxygen (O2) as their only function. However, the ability of red blood cells (RBCs) to modulate the microcirculation is now recognized as an important additional function. This capacity is regulated by a key element in the rheologic process: the RBC membrane. This membrane is a complex unit with multiple interactions between the extracellular and intracellular compartments: blood stream, endothelium, and other blood cells on the one hand, and the intracytoplasmic compartment with possible rapid adaptation of erythrocyte metabolism on the other. In this paper, we review the alterations in the erythrocyte membrane observed in critically ill patients and the influence of these alterations on the microcirculatory abnormalities observed in such patients. An understanding of the mechanisms of RBC rheologic alterations in sepsis and their effects on blood flow and on oxygen transport may be important to help reduce morbidity and mortality from severe sepsis.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: The development of sepsis after abdominal surgery is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Due to inflammation, it may be difficult to diagnose infection when it occurs, but measurement of C-reactive protein could facilitate this diagnosis. In the present study, we evaluated the predictive value and time course of C-reactive protein in relation to outcome in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) after abdominal surgery. METHODS: We included patients admitted to the ICU after abdominal surgery over a period of two years. The patients were divided into two groups according to their outcome: favorable (F; left the ICU alive, without modification of the antibiotic regimen) and unfavorable (D; death in the ICU, surgical revision with or without modification of the antibiotic regimen or just modification of the regimen). We then compared the highest C-reactive protein level on the first day of admission between the two groups. RESULTS: A total of 308 patients were included: 86 patients had an unfavorable outcome (group D) and 222 had a favorable outcome (group F). The groups were similar in terms of leukocytosis, neutrophilia, and platelet count. C-reactive protein was significantly higher at admission in group D and was the best predictor of an unfavorable outcome, with a sensitivity of 74% and a specificity of 72% for a threshold of 41 mg/L. No changes in C-reactive protein, as assessed based on the delta C-reactive protein, especially at days 4 and 5, were associated with a poor prognosis. CONCLUSIONS: A C-reactive protein cut-off of 41 mg/L during the first day of ICU admission after abdominal surgery was a predictor of an adverse outcome. However, no changes in the C-reactive protein concentration, especially by day 4 or 5, could identify patients at risk of death.

Abstract

Purpose: Uncertainties remain about the safety and efficacy of therapies for managing intracranial hypertension in acute brain injured (ABI) patients. This study aims to describe the therapeutical approaches used in ABI, with/without intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring, among different pathologies and across different countries, and their association with sixmonths mortality and neurological outcome. Methods: A preplanned subanalysis of the SYNAPSE-ICU study, a multicentre, prospective, international, observational cohort study, describing the ICP treatment, graded according to Therapy Intensity Level (TIL) scale, in patients with ABI during the first week of intensive care unit (ICU) admission. Results: 2320 patients were included in the analysis. The median age was 55 (I-III quartiles = 39-69) years, and 800 (34.5%) were female. During the first week from ICU admission, no-basic TIL was used in 382 (16.5%) patients, mild-moderate in 1643 (70.8%), and extreme in 295 cases (eTIL, 12.7%). Patients who received eTIL were younger (median age 49 (I-III quartiles = 35-62) vs 56 (40-69) years, p

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has been widely used in patients with COVID-19, but uncertainty remains about the determinants of in-hospital mortality and data on post-discharge outcomes are scarce. The aims of this study were to investigate the variables associated with in-hospital outcomes in patients who received ECMO during the first wave of COVID-19 and to describe the status of patients 6 months after ECMO initiation.METHODS: EuroECMO-COVID is a prospective, multicentre, observational study developed by the European Extracorporeal Life Support Organization. This study was based on data from patients aged 16 years or older who received ECMO support for refractory COVID-19 during the first wave of the pandemic-from March 1 to Sept 13, 2020-at 133 centres in 21 countries. In-hospital mortality and mortality 6 months after ECMO initiation were the primary outcomes. Mixed-Cox proportional hazards models were used to investigate associations between patient and management-related variables (eg, patient demographics, comorbidities, pre-ECMO status, and ECMO characteristics and complications) and in-hospital deaths. Survival status at 6 months was established through patient contact or institutional charts review. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04366921, and is ongoing.FINDINGS: Between March 1 and Sept 13, 2020, 1215 patients (942 [78%] men and 267 [22%] women; median age 53 years [IQR 46-60]) were included in the study. Median ECMO duration was 15 days (IQR 8-27). 602 (50%) of 1215 patients died in hospital, and 852 (74%) patients had at least one complication. Multiorgan failure was the leading cause of death (192 [36%] of 528 patients who died with available data). In mixed-Cox analyses, age of 60 years or older, use of inotropes and vasopressors before ECMO initiation, chronic renal failure, and time from intubation to ECMO initiation of 4 days or more were associated with higher in-hospital mortality. 613 patients did not die in hospital, and 547 (95%) of 577 patients for whom data were available were alive at 6 months. 102 (24%) of 431 patients had returned to full-time work at 6 months, and 57 (13%) of 428 patients had returned to part-time work. At 6 months, respiratory rehabilitation was required in 88 (17%) of 522 patients with available data, and the most common residual symptoms included dyspnoea (185 [35%] of 523 patients) and cardiac (52 [10%] of 514 patients) or neurocognitive (66 [13%] of 512 patients) symptoms.INTERPRETATION: Patient's age, timing of cannulation (FUNDING: None.

Abstract

Distinction between inflammation secondary to surgery, especially coronary artery bypass graft with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and inflammation due to infection is difficult in surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Development of biomarkers of infection could help clinicians in the early identification and thus treatment of sepsis in these patients. We compared the time course of the neutrophil CD64 index, a high affinity immunoglobulin FC γ receptor I whose expression is increased in bacterial infection, in 39 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB and 11 patients admitted to the ICU with severe sepsis or septic shock. The CD64 index was significantly more elevated in septic patients than in patients who had CPB except at day 5. The CD64 index increased moderately on day 1 after cardiac surgery but the value remained lower than in septic patients. The duration for which the CD64 index was greater than 1.0 was longer in septic than in CPB patients. Receiver operating curves to differentiate CPB from sepsis on day 1 were not significantly different between C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations and CD 64 index. Nevertheless, combination of low CD64 index with low CRP concentrations on day 1 ruled out sepsis except in three patients. There were no correlations between the CD64 index and cytokine levels (tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, interferon [IFN]γ, interleukin [IL]-6, IL-10, IL-8, IL-12) measured in subpopulations. In conclusion, CD64 index only in combination with CRP concentrations could be used to discriminate inflammation due to surgery from that due to infection in this particular population.

Abstract

Background: Hyponatremia occurring as a result of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is a common and potentially lethal complication in critically ill patients. Urea, by inducing renal water excretion and promoting sodium (Na) retention, has been well described as a treatment for chronic SIADH. However, there are limited data on its use for the treatment of SIADH as encountered in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). We assessed the effects of urea administration for treatment of SIADH in ICU patients. Methods: Data from ICU patients treated with urea for SIADH between January 2000 and August 2010 were reviewed. The time courses of Na and urea concentrations were analyzed by variance analysis (ANOVA). Results: Records from 24 patients were analyzed. The most common etiology of SIADH was neurological (18 patients). Before urea administration, the mean serum Na concentration was 124.8 ± 5.9 mEq/l. There was a significant increase in serum Na from the second day of treatment (131.4 ± 3.5 mEq/l, p < 0.001) and a normalization of mean serum Na by the fourth day (136.2 ± 4.1 mEq/l, p < 0.001). The mean serum urea concentration also increased (from 29.8 ± 11.1 mg/dl before urea to 57.6 ± 24.0 mg/dl on the first day of treatment, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Urea administration appears useful for the treatment of SIADH-associated hyponatremia in critically ill patients. Prospective randomized controlled studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract

BACKGROUND Both dopamine and norepinephrine are recommended as first-line vasopressor agents in the treatment of shock. There is a continuing controversy about whether one agent is superior to the other. METHODS In this multicenter, randomized trial, we assigned patients with shock to receive either dopamine or norepinephrine as first-line vasopressor therapy to restore and maintain blood pressure. When blood pressure could not be maintained with a dose of 20 μg per kilogram of body weight per minute for dopamine or a dose of 0.19 μg per kilogram per minute for norepinephrine, open-label norepinephrine, epinephrine, or vasopressin could be added. The primary outcome was the rate of death at 28 days after randomization; secondary end points included the number of days without need for organ support and the occurrence of adverse events. RESULTS The trial included 1679 patients, of whom 858 were assigned to dopamine and 821 to norepinephrine. The baseline characteristics of the groups were similar. There was no significant between-group difference in the rate of death at 28 days (52.5% in the dopamine group and 48.5% in the norepinephrine group; odds ratio with dopamine, 1.17; 95% confidence interval, 0.97 to 1.42; P = 0.10). However, there were more arrhythmic events among the patients treated with dopamine than among those treated with norepinephrine (207 events [24.1%] vs. 102 events [12.4%], P

Abstract

This study tested the concept that changes in breathing parameters account for modifications in respiratory-related blood pressure (BP) and R-R interval (RRI) variability during nocturnal sleep. BP (Finapres), electrocardiogram, respiration (Respitrace), and polygraphic sleep recordings were recorded continuously in 13 healthy men aged 18-37 yr. The transfer characteristics identified by coherence and gain measures between the calibrated thoraco-abdominal motion and the respiratory-related BP and RRI variability evidenced a consistent increase during transitions from wake to light sleep and from light to deep sleep but returned to waking levels during rapid-eye-movement sleep (P < 0.0001). These changes were related to the specific modifications occurring in the respiratory rate, tidal volume, and ribcage-to-abdominal motion ratio during the different sleep stages (0.28 < r < 0.39; P < 0.0001). This study demonstrates 1) that modifications in the breathing pattern account for 8-15% of the variance in the cardiorespiratory transfer, and 2) that respiratory modulation of vagal activity is not the main mechanism controlling the magnitude of the respiratory-related BP and RRI variability during sleep.

Abstract

Amlodipine is a calcium antagonist with a long elimination half-life (35 to 50 h) allowing a once daily dosing in the treatment of hypertension. This randomized, double-blind study was performed to assess the residual antihypertensive effect of amlodipine 5 mg O.D. 3 days after discontinuing therapy in previously well-controlled mild to moderate hypertensive patients. Blood pressure (BP) was evaluated by conventional (OBP) and by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Amlodipine 5 mg OD administered during a 6-week period, significantly reduced both OBP and ABPM mean values (p0.05), whereas no change in heart rate was observed. At the end of the active treatment period, adequately controlled patients were randomized either to amlodipine 5 mg OD (group A) or amlodipine for 12 days followed by a 3-day period on placebo. After this double-blind treatment phase, group P exhibited no significant increase in BP (assessed by OBP or ABPM) when compared to group A. In conclusion, the duration of action of amlodipine extends largely beyond the 24-h span, and when patients omit their treatment for 3 days BP does not significantly increase.

Abstract

Background Limited data are available regarding antiviral therapy efficacy in most severe patients under mechanical ventilation for Covid-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods Comparison of antiviral strategies (none, hydroxychloroquine (OHQ), lopinavir/ritonavir (L/R), others (combination or remdesivir) in an observational multicentre cohort of patients with moderate-to-severe Covid-19 ARDS. The primary endpoint was the number of day 28 ventilator-free days (VFD). Patients who died before d28 were considered as having 0 VFD. The variable was dichotomized into “patients still ventilated or dead at day 28” versus “patients weaned and alive at day 28”. Results We analyzed 415 patients (85 treated with standard of care (SOC), 57 with L/R, 220 with OHQ, and 53 others). The median number of d28-VFD was 0 (IQR 0–13) and differed between groups (P = 0.03), SOC patients having the highest d28-VFD. After adjustment for age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index, PaO2/FiO2 ratio and plateau pressure and accounting for center effect with a generalized linear mixed model, none of the antiviral strategies increased the chance of being alive and weaned from MV at day 28 compared to the SOC strategy (OR 0.48 CI95% (0.18–1.25); OR 0.96 (0.47–2.02) and OR 1.43 (0.53–4.04) for L/R, OHQ and other treatments, respectively). Acute kidney injury during ICU stay was frequent (55%); its incidence was higher in patients receiving lopinavir (66 vs 53%, P = 0.03). After adjustment for age, sex, BMI, chronic hypertension and chronic renal disease, the use of L/R was associated with an increased risk of renal replacement therapy (RRT). (OR 2.52 CI95% 1.16–5.59). Conclusion In this multicentre observational study of moderate-to-severe Covid-19 ARDS patients, we did not observe any benefit among patients treated with OHQ or L/R compared with SOC. The use of L/R treatment was associated with an increased need for RRT. Take home message Neither hydroxychloroquine nor lopinavir/ritonavir as COVID-19 antiviral treatment is associated with higher ventilator-free days at day 28 when compared with standard of care (no antiviral treatment) in ICU patients under invasive mechanical ventilation. Lopinavir/ritonavir is associated with an increased risk of renal replacement therapy requirement. Tweet COVID-19: Insights from ARDS cohort: no signal of efficacy of any antiviral drugs. Lopinavir/ritonavir may be associated with need for RRT
