Background As delayed intubation may worsen the outcome of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), we sought to determine COVID-specific early predictors of CPAP failure. Methods In this observational retrospective multicentre study, we included all COVID-19 patients treated with out-of-ICU CPAP, candidates for intubation in case of CPAP failure. From these patients, we collected demographic and clinical data. Results A total of 397 COVID-19 patients were treated with CPAP for respiratory failure, with the therapeutic goal of providing intubation in case of CPAP failure. Univariable analysis showed that, age, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and white cell counts were all significantly lower in patients with successful CPAP treatment compared to those failing it and undergoing subsequent intubation. The percentage changes between baseline and CPAP application in the ratio of partial pressure arterial oxygen (PaO2) and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2), PaO2, respiratory rate and ROX index were higher in patients experiencing successful CPAP compared to those failing it. FiO2 and male gender were also significantly associated with intubation. Multivariable analysis adjusting for age, gender, Charlson comorbidity index, percentage change in PaO2/FiO2 or PaO2 and FiO2 separately, lactate, white blood cell count, LDH and C-reactive protein levels led to an area under the curve of 0.818 and confirmed that age, LDH and percentage increase in PaO2/FiO2 are predictors of intubation. Conclusions In COVID-19 patients requiring CPAP, age, LDH and percentage change in PaO2/FiO2 after starting CPAP are predictors of intubation.

The anesthetic management of patients affected by myasthenia gravis is usually challenging in elective surgery and even more so in emergency procedures. The difficulties involved are several-fold, ranging from the choice of an appropriate muscle relaxant (i.e. one that enables safe and rapid airway management) to neuromuscular monitoring and normal muscular recovery. Additionally, optimizing patient conditions - either pharmacologically or with plasmapheresis - before intervention is well beyond the realm of possibility. We discuss the anesthetic management of two myasthenic patients undergoing emergency surgery (for sigmoid perforation and upper gastrointestinal bleeding respectively). In both cases, we opted for rapid-sequence induction with high-dose rocuronium to prevent inhalation of gastric contents. We also report on the implication of neuromuscular monitoring. We found that the rocuronium-sugammadex combination was a useful and effective option in the emergency setting.

Background Surgery in patients affected by amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) presents a particular anesthetic challenge because of the risk of post-operative pulmonary complications. Aims of the study We report on the use of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) to prevent post-operative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in nine patients affected by ALS enrolled in a phase-1 clinical trial with stem cell transplantation. Methods All patients were treated with autologous mesenchymal stem cells implanted into the spinal cord with a surgical procedure. Anesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained with remifentanil and sevoflurane. No muscle relaxant was used. After awakening and regain of spontaneous breathing, patients were tracheally extubated. Non-invasive ventilation through nasal mask was delivered and non-invasive positive pressure ventilation and continuous positive pressure ventilation were started. Results The average time on NIV after surgery was 3 h and 12 min. All patients regained stable spontaneous breathing after NIV discontinuation and had no episodes of respiratory failure until the following day. Conclusions Our case series suggest that the use of NIV after surgery can be a safe strategy to prevent PPCs in patients affected by ALS. The perioperative procedure we chose for these patients appeared safe even in patients with advanced functional stage of the disease.

Background Relative effects of dosage, volume and concentration of local anaesthetics used for postoperative thoracic epidural analgesia are still under debate. In this randomized, prospective, double-blinded study, we evaluated the incidence of side-effects such as changes in arterial pressure, postoperative nausea, vomiting, and pruritus in patients admitted for thoracic surgery during continuous thoracic epidural infusion using levobupivacaine and sufentanil mixture in three different volumes. Methods We studied 150 patients who underwent thoracotomy with a thoracic epidural catheter placed between T4 and T7. The patients were randomized into three groups which received 10 mg h−1 of levobupivacaine at three different concentrations (0.5%, 0.25%, and 0.15%), in combination with sufentanil at 2.6 μg h−1. Haemodynamic effects, pruritus, nausea, vomiting, sensory and motor block, pain score, additional analgesic requirement, sedation, and patient satisfaction were registered immediately after the surgical operation and on the first, second, and third postoperative days. Results We did not detect any differences in the incidence of side-effects such as changes in arterial pressure, and also postoperative nausea, vomiting, and pruritus. The three groups were also similar with regard to patient characteristics, sensory and motor block, pain score, analgesic rescue dose, sedation, and patient satisfaction. Conclusions The same dose of a mixture of levobupivacaine and sufentanil administered in three different volumes and concentrations during continuous thoracic epidural infusion for thoracotomy provided an equal incidence of adverse haemodynamic effects, nausea, vomiting, or pruritus.

Introduction:Currently, there is no widely available method to evaluate an emergency department disaster plan. Creation of a standardized patient data- base and the use of a virtual, live exercise may lead to a standardized and reproducible method that can be used to evaluate a disaster plan.Purpose:A virtual, live exercise was designed with the primary objective of evaluating a hospital's emergency department disaster plan. Education and training of participants was a secondary goal.Methods:A database (disastermed.ca) of histories, physical examination findings, and laboratory results for 136 simulated patients was created using information derived from actual patient encounters.The patient database was used to perform a virtual, live exercise using a training version of the emergency department's information system software.Results:Several solutions to increase patient flow were demonstrated during the exercise. Conducting the exercise helped identify several faults in the hospital disaster plan, including outlining the important rate-limiting step. In addition, a significant degree of under-triage was demonstrated. Estimates of multiple markers of patient flow were identified and compared to Canadian guidelines. Most participants reported that the exercise was a valuable learning experience.Conclusions:A virtual, live exercise using the disastermed.ca patient database was an inexpensive method to evaluate the emergency department disaster plan. This included discovery of new approaches to managing patients, delineating the rate-limiting steps, and evaluating triage accuracy. Use of the patient timestamps has potential as a standardized international benchmark of hospital disaster plan efficacy. Participant satisfaction was high.

The patients affected by critical limb ischemia (CLI) are patients generally considered difficult cases, destined to repeated approach to the sanitary structures. They are patients affected by many pathologies since years, that they know to be potentially lethal often have already faced many interventions, with partial and not long-lasting benefits, they go from one specialist to another and sometimes they entrust themselves to alternative medicine. Physicians have to take in charge not the pathology but to take in charge the patient. For the control of the pain it turns out essential, near the block of the perception of the pain, to act with psychological participation, in order to interfere with the perception of the pain and the meant one of the pain, modify the feelings associated to the pain, modify the behavior induced by pain.

Chronic pain is a symptom that inevitably goes along with a condition of critical ischemia of the lower limbs, termed also as "obstructive peripheral arteriopathy". This sometimes displays worsening, provoking difficult physical and psychological behaviors of the patients. The complexity of this kind of patients results in difficulties in their clinical management. A multidisciplinary team, namely the close and coordinated collaboration of various kinds of professionists, could give better results, than an individual approach, thanks to strategies of re-equilibrating the systemic homeostasis of the given patient.

Perspective study in order to estimate the incidence of TURP-Syndrome, in spinal anesthesia (SA) with volemic expansion with sodium chloride solution 0.9 % vs 3%. Materials and Methods Two groups (gr) of patients (pt) A (n=20) and B (n=20) in SA have received like respective 500 ml of NaCl 0.9% and 250 ml. of NaCl 3%. The bladder was irrigated with a solution containing 1.5% glycine (1). We estimated: weight of prostate adenoma and weight of removed tessue, Sodium (Na) preop - intraop - postop. and after 24 hours, Ammonium (NH4+) pre - postop, volumes (V) of dropped solutions, V of dropped glycine (gl), operation time, core body temperature intraop and postop, mental state intra and postop., osmolarity. Results We found no significant difference in weight of adenoma and removed tessue. We have not observed any differences in the V of infusive solutions in the periop. We have not observed any difference in the values of Na preop. and postop, in those of NH4+ preop and postop, in operation time and in the V of gl. During procedure 5 pz. (S group) showed: visual disturbances, mental confusion (TURP-Syndrome) and hypertention (2). No pz. have any Na and NH4+ intraop.values altered. Time of TURP appeared bigger in non symptomatic patients (69 mn gr S. vs 48.43 gr.A and 47.26 gr. B). The V of instilled gl. has appeared meaningfully more elevated in gr. S (21.4 / vs 12 in gr.A and 12.31 in gr. B). The Na and NH4+ postop., Na after 24 hours and core body temperature have turned out statistically omogenee in all pt. In the 5 symptomatic pt the osmolarity values entered in normality ranges and they did not show differences between the groups considered. Conclusions We have not noticed any differences in using of the NaCl solution 0.9% versus NaCl 3% like volemic prefilling; the symptomatic patients have endured one longer procedure and greater amount of irrigating solution; their values of Na and NH4+ were in the limits of the normality; for this reasons perhaps the cause of symptoms in our patients would be searched in direct toxicity of glycine as inhibitory neurotrasmitter in CNS.

Multicasualty triage is the process of establishing the priority of care among casualties in disaster management. Recent mass casualty incidents (MCI) revealed that health personnel are unfamiliar with the triage protocols. The objective of this study is to compare the relative impact of two simulation-based methods for training medical students in mass casualty triage using the Simple Triage and Rapid Treatment (START) algorithm.

Emergencies and disasters can occur anywhere in the world, affecting human health and lives and the infrastructure built to support them. Chemical releases arising from technological incidents, natural disasters, and conflict and terrorism are common [1]. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies has estimated that between 1998 and 2007, there were nearly 3,200 technological disasters with approximately 100,000 people killed and nearly 2 million people affected. Unfortunately, the threat of major events involving chemicals is predicted to increase worldwide for three main reasons. First, the chemical industry is rapidly growing, and the number of chemicals available in the market is increasing [2]. Second, chemical incidents may have an impact beyond their original location, in some cases crossing national borders. Third, there is concern regarding the deliberate use of chemicals for terrorist purposes [3].

Altered cardiovascular and respiratory function is uncommonly encountered in multiple sclerosis, though it may appear late in the course of the disease [4]. Episodes of acute ventilatory failure due to autonomic and/or voluntary respiratory function paralysis have already been described. These episodes are often accompanied by a focal neurological deficit which expresses lesion at the level of the medulla [6]. A demyelinating bulbar lesion leading to altered cardiovascular function is likewise infrequent but when it happens, bradycardia, postural hypotension [2], or acute pulmonary edema without heart failure may occur [1]. We present a case of non cardiogenic acute pulmonary edema which had neither a toxic insult nor an infective agent as etiology, but appeared as the initial manifestation of a multifocal demyelinating syndrome.

Introduction:Although most hospitals have an emergency department disas- ter plan, most never have been implemented in a true disaster or been tested objectively. Computer simulation may be a useful tool to predict emergency department patient flow during a disaster.Purpose:The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of a computer simulation in predicting emergency department patient flow during a masscasualty incident with that of a real-time, virtual, live exercise.Methods:History, physical examination findings, and laboratory results for 136 simulated patients were extracted from the disastermed.ca patient database as used as input into a computer simulation designed to represent the emergency department at the University of Alberta Hospital.The computer simulation was developed using a commercially available simulation software platform (2005, SimProcess, CACI Products, San Diego CA). Patient flow parameters were compared to a previous virtual, live exercise using the same data set.Results:Although results between the computer simulation and the live exercise appear similar, they differ statistically with respect to many patient benchmarks. There was a marked difference between the triage codes assigned during the live exercise and those from the patient database; however, this alone did not account for the differences between the patient groups. It is likely that novel approaches to patient care developed by the live exercise group, which are difficult to model by computer software, contributed to differences between the groups. Computer simulation was useful, however, in predicting how small changes to emergency department structure, such as adding staff or patient care areas, can influence patient flow.Conclusions:Computer simulation is helpful in defining the effects of changes to a hospital disaster plan. However, it cannot fully replace participant exercises. Rather, computer simulation and live exercises are complementary, and both may be useful for disaster plan evaluation.

Dynamic predictors of fluid responsiveness (FR) perform poorly in ICU patients receiving partial ventilatory assistance. Because these modes of partial support are increasingly used, FR dynamic indexes are applicable only in a few ICU patients [1]. To overcome these limitations, novel approaches for testing FR in ICU have been proposed, such as the passive leg raising and the end-expiratory occlusion. These tests, however, may not always be applicable [2]. During controlled mechanical ventilation, Pulse Pressure (PP) and left ventricle stroke volume are coupled; their variations are due to the reduction of right ventricle stroke volume consequent to ventilator insufflation and are either proportional to the tidal volume and closely related to preload dependence.

Commonly, Disaster Medicine educational issues are often related to the Emergency Medicine domain, even though in Europe there is no clear definition about these two subjects. Yet, following the extraordinary succession of natural and technological disasters in Europe during the past several years (e.g. Chernobyl, flooding, forest fires), the governments belonging to the European Union are putting increasing pressure on national entities (ministries, universities, hospitals, local governments, etc.) to develop official plans, protocols, and guidelines that can be implemented in case the regular ‘pathways’ fail at any level. The study of disaster situations is included in the core curriculum of many schools at the undergraduate and post-graduate level (ranging from Architecture to Computer Science to Economics), and the possibility of short-, medium-, and long-term chain-reaction effects involving the environment and affected population are being examined. At least in Europe, the body of knowledge belonging to the study of Medicine, despite being very rich and formally exhaustive, is mostly oriented to the ideal situation of doctor and patient, rather than to the occurrence of any type of system failure causing a massive number of casualties and the need to provide treatment, even in hostile environments and over time. Two core subjects, Epidemiology and Occupational Medicine, offer students the possibility to think in terms of hundreds to millions of patients.

Traumatic injury and trauma deaths have been worldwide considered a major health problem [1]. The World Health Organization estimates that 16 000 people die everyday from trauma injuries, and for every person who dies, several thousands more are injured, many of them with permanent sequelae. Injury accounts for 16% of the global burden of disease [2].

Noninvasive ventilation through a mask is commonly applied in pressure support ventilation (nPSV). Recent studies showed that noninvasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (nNAVA) improves patient-ventilator interaction and synchrony. More recently we described a new setting for nNAVA (nNAVA15) able to reduce the peak of electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdipeak) and dyspnea (assessed by a visual analogue scale, VASd), compared with both nPSV and nNAVA, in patients undergoing NIV through a helmet, by improving the rate pressurization. We therefore designed a physiological study to evaluate and compare the effects of nNAVA15 with nPSV and nNAVA on VASd, EAdipeak, pressurization rate and arterial blood gases (ABGs).

Noninvasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist by helmet (hNAVA) was shown to improve, compared with pressure support ventilation by helmet (hPSV), patient-ventilator interaction and synchrony in patients with acute respiratory failure without affecting peak electrical activity of the diaphragm (EAdipeak) [1]. Recently, a new helmet is available, which improves pressurization during hPSV. We propose a new setting of hNAVA (hNAVA15) to achieve further improvement. We compare hPSV, hNAVA and hNAVA15, all delivered using the new helmet, with respect to patient's dyspnea, assessed by a visual analogue scale (VASd), arterial blood gases (ABGs), EAdipeak, rate of ventilator pressurization and triggering performance.

To determine cerebral blood flow (CBF) and metabolism in the acute phase after severe head injury by a new dynamic SPECT device using 133Xenon and to evaluate a possible role of CBF and metabolism in the determination of prognosis.Prospective study.General intensive care unit in a universitary teaching hospital.23 severely head injured patients having CT scan and CBF determination, intracranial pressure (ICP) and jugular bulb oxygen saturation monitoring in the first 48 hours.CBF varied from 18.0 to 60.0 ml/100 g/min. No correlation was found between early CBF and severity of trauma evaluated with the Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) (F = 2.151, p = 0.142) and between CBF and prognosis at 6 months evaluated with Glasgow outcome score (GOS) (F = 0.491, p = 0.622: rs = 0.251, p = 0.246). CMRO2 was depressed in relation to the severity of injury, specifically ranging from 0.9 +/- 0.5 ml/100 g/min in patients with GCS 3 to 1.7 +/- 0.8 ml/100 g/min in patients with GCS 6-7. In no patient with CMRO2 less than 0.8 ml/100 g/min was a good outcome observed. A significant correlation was found between GCS and GOS (rs = 0.699, p = 0.0002), between CMRO2 and GOS (F = 4.303, p = 0.031; rs = 0.525, p = 0.013) and between AJDO2 and GOS (F = 3.602, p = 0.046; rs = 0.491, p = 0.017). Fronto-occipital ratio (F/O) of CBF distribution was significantly lower than normal values (chi 2 = 18.658, p = 0.001) but did not correlate either with prognosis (chi 2 = 1.626, p = 0.443) or with severity (chi 2 = 1.913, p = 0.384).CBF in the first 48 hours after trauma varies within a large range of values and is not correlated with severity and prognosis. Clinical evaluation with GCS and CMRO2 are much more reliable indicators of severity of head trauma and have a significant role in the determination of prognosis. F/O ration is significantly altered from normal values confirming "post-traumatic hypofrontalism" but does not correlate with severity and prognosis.

After primary neurologic damage due to a traumatic, ischemic, hypoxic or metabolic event, a secondary lesion may arise, worsening it and becoming a vicious circle. Locally, the initial energetic breakdown or the tissue mechanical disruption set off a number of biochemical chain reactions leading to a derangement of molecular structures and liberating toxic mediators. Globally, these reactions are responsible for brain edema and disorders of microcirculation (1).

Head injury represents the cause of injury deaths in 50–70% of cases and is the main cause of death in the group under 20 years of age. Brain sequelae are often so severe as to hinder a satisfactory social reintegration. Prevention and control of the extension of the secondary cerebral lesions are important. Ischaemia has been recognized as the common final pathway in post-traumatic brain damage and seems to be mainly due to acute intracranial hypertension and decreased cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) [3].

It is generally accepted that myogenic, metabolic and neurogenic regulation mechanisms exist for the cerebral blood flow (CBF). Recently, a hydraulic control acting at the predural level has been suggested by Chopp et al. [2] These mechanisms, however, do not take into consideration the problem represented by the peculiar feature of the brain (an incompressible organ) within the skull and dura mater (a rigid box and a stiff envelope), perfused by a pulsatile blood flow through a vascular tree with elastic walls. On the basis of this consideration we think that the progressive CBF reduction up to cerebral circulatory arrest following severe intracranial hypertension is probably due to an unbalance between cerebral blood volume variations during each cardiac cycle and the compensatory systems, primarily the venous vascular bed.

Brain tamponade (BT) represents a condition of cerebral blood flow (CBF) arrest due to a progressive or often sudden increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) up to values close to the corresponding systemic arterial pressure values. This situation, peculiar to an anatomical configuration characterized by the presence of an incompressible organ within a rigid envelope, as the brain substance within the skull, can induce as its final step a diffuse or compartmental brain ischemia. Considering the scarce metabolic autonomy of the CNS, this could produce irreversible damages. Implicated in this process are the direct relationships between cerebral blood volume changes and vascular impedances. To investigate the hemodynamic mechanisms underlying BT we have carried out an experimental study in the rabbit because its cerebral blood supply is analogous to the human (Meyer et al. 1986).

Two case reports characterized by the complete occlusion of the basilar artery, secondary to dissection of the vertebral artery after closed head trauma are described. These lesions, often clinically silent in the beginning, were able to cause severe neurologic impairment, even after minor head trauma in healthy individuals without predisposing structural disorders. Early detection, based upon the knowledge of the modality of the trauma and upon a correct diagnostic approach, is mandatory to reduce secondary injury. The authors suggest an extensive use of cerebral angiography or angio-magnetic resonance in all cases where clinical conditions are more severe than the computed tomography scan, particularly if the trauma produced a cervical injury with a movement of flexo-extension of the neck. Therapeutic management is discussed. Anti-coagulants, thrombolytic agents or surgical ligation of the vessel has been proposed to prevent the extension of the lesion and to improve the outcome.

The aim of this report is to compare two disaster exercises' management of students with different backgrounds. To our knowledge nobody has ever compared two exercises, probably because of the difficulty in their evaluation. We implemented a tool for an objective evaluation [1] and we used it for this purpose.

Two patients with spinal infarction and one patient with the previously unreported complication of spinal transient ischaemic attack associated with cocaine misuse are reported. Spinal MRI documented an infarction in the territory of the anterior spinal artery in the first two patients and was completely normal in the patient with a transient ischaemic attack. Motor evoked potentials were abnormal in all three patients.

Severe pneumonia is a major challenge in the Intensive Care Unit, as it is characterized by high morbidity and mortality. A high rate of patients with pneumonia, in particular ventilator-associated poneumonia, develops septic shock. Although some interesting results have been reported in uncontrolled studies where IgM-enriched human intravenous immunoglobulins were added to the standard treatment of septic shock, a well-conducted clinical trial is missing[1]. Also, physiopathological data supporting such a trial are presently insufficient.
