ABSTRACT
Contrast-associated acute kidney injury(CA-AKI)is an important complication caused by the use of contrast medium(CM)in diagnostic or interventional surgery.At present,it has become one of the major causes of acute renal insufficiency in hospitalized patients.Choosing a relatively low toxic CM and reducing the exposure time and dose of CM can prevent CA-AKI occurrence to some extent.Drugs such as statins and postoperative hydration can reduce the risk of CA-AKI.In addition,nanomedicine has shown a benefit in animal models.This paper reviews the current prevention and treatment of CA-AKI to lay the foundation for further study of new interventions and provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 electrolyte solution for fluid therapy in the patients undergoing meningioma resection.Methods:Ninety-two American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of either sex, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, with expected operation duration>3 h, undergoing elective meningioma resection, were divided into 2 groups ( n=46 each) using a random number table method: lactated Ringer′s solution (LR) group and HES group. LR was infused throughout operation in group LR, and 6% HES was intravenously infused in group HES, with the maximum dose not exceeding 50 ml/kg, and the excess part was supplemented with LR. Goal-directed fluid therapy was used to maintain stroke volume variation<13% and mean arterial pressure 70-90 mmHg. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed immediately before anesthesia induction (T 0), when 1 000 and 2 000 ml of fluid were infused (T 1, 2), and at the end of surgery (T 3) to record electrolyte and acid-base balance indexes. Thromboelastogram was simultaneously monitored. The occurrence of electrolyte disorder, acid-base imbalance and abnormal coagulation function and consumption of norepinephrine were recorded. Patients were followed up at 3 and 7 days after surgery, and the Chinese quality of recovery-15 scores were recorded. The hospitalization time and occurrence of brain edema, pulmonary edema, nausea and vomiting were recorded. Results:In group L and group H, 4 cases and 6 cases were excluded due to prolonged operation time, and 42 cases and 40 cases were finally included, respectively. Compared with LR group, the plasma Na + concentration was significantly increased at T 3, the plasma Cl - concentration and pH value were increased at T 1-3, the plasma Ca 2+ concentration was decreased at T 2, 3, reaction time was increased at T 3, coagulation time was increased and maximum amplitude was decreasedat T 2, 3, and coagulation Angle was decreased at T 1-3( P<0.05). No electrolyte disorder and abnormal coagulation function was found in the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference in the consumption of norepinephrine, postoperative Chinese quality of recovery-15 score, length of hospital stay and incidence of alkalosis, pulmonary edema, brain edema, and nausea and vomiting between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of liquid therapy is comparable between HES and LR in the patients undergoing meningioma resection.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in elderly patients undergoing long-time abdominal surgery.Methods:The medical records from elderly patients of both sexes, aged ≥ 65 yr, with a duration of operation ≥ 8 h and American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective first abdominal surgery for gastrointestinal tumors at the Shanxi Provincial People′s Hospital from October 1, 2016 to June 30, 2022, were collected from the electronic medical record database. Patients were divided into conventional fluid therapy group (group C) and GDFT group (group G) according to whether GDFT was employed during operation. In group C, blood pressure was maintained ≥90/60 mmHg or mean arterial pressure≥65 mmHg, and urine output more than 30 ml/h. In group G, the stroke volume variation was maintained ≤13%, and cardiac index ≥2.5 L·min -1·m -2. The patient general characteristics, requirement for fluid, urine output, blood loss, requirement for vasoactive agents and abdominal hyperthermic perfusion, and operation time were recorded during operation. The development of AKI within 72 h after operation and development of other complications (pneumonia, anastomotic leakage, surgical site infection, septic shock, arrhythmia) after operation were recorded. The length of hospital stay and 30-day mortality after operation were recorded. Results:A total of 125 patients were included in this study, with 41 patients in group C and 84 patients in group G. Postoperative AKI occurred in 19 patients, with an incidence of 15.2%. Compared with group C, the requirement for colloid, total volume of fluid infused and urine volume were significantly decreased during operation, the requirement for vasoactive agents was increased during operation ( P<0.05), the risk of postoperative AKI was reduced ( OR=0.23, P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of other postoperative complications, 30-day mortality, and length of hospital stay in group G ( P>0.05). Conclusions:GDFT can reduce the risk of AKI in the elderly patients undergoing long-time abdominal surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effects of phased goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) during anesthesia surgery on tissue perfusion and cognitive function in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery.Methods:A total of 108 lung cancer patients were prospectively selected and randomly divided into a control group and a study group using a random number table method. The control group received classical restrictive liquid therapy, while the study group received staged GDFT. We compared the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, colloid fluid dosage, crystalloid fluid dosage, total output, and urine volume between two groups of patients; Two groups of patients were compared in terms of oxygenation index (OI), respiratory index (RI), central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2), lactate (Lac), central venous arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (Pcv-aCO 2), oxygen supply index (DO 2I), and oxygen uptake rate (O 2ERe) before anesthesia induction (T 0), before single lung ventilation (T 1), 1 hour of single lung ventilation (T 2), immediate resumption of dual lung ventilation (T 3), 30 minutes of dual lung ventilation (T 4), and after surgery (T 5); The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to evaluate the cognitive function scores of two groups of patients 1 day before surgery and 1 and 3 days after surgery, while recording the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and pulmonary complications (including pulmonary infection, acute lung injury, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary edema, atelectasis, etc.) within 3 days after surgery. Results:The amount of crystal fluid and urine output in the research group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while the amount of colloidal fluid was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The OI of the study group T 1-T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, while the RI of T 2-T 5 was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05). The ScvO 2 of the study group T 1 to T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the Lac was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05); The MMSE scores of both groups of patients were significantly lower than those before surgery on day 1 and 3 after surgery, and the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group on day 1 and 3 after surgery (all P<0.05). The incidence of POCD within 3 days after surgery in the study group was 16.67%(9/54), lower than 37.04%(20/54) in the control group (χ 2=5.704, P=0.017); The incidence of pulmonary complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group (5.56% vs 22.22%, χ 2=4.955, P=0.026). Conclusions:The application of staged GDFT during anesthesia in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery can further improve tissue perfusion, improve microcirculation and oxygen supply-demand balance of systemic organs and tissues, including the brain, alleviate perioperative brain function damage, and reduce the occurrence of postoperative POCD compared to conventional liquid therapy.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT)under the guidance of LIDCOrapid hemodynamic monitor on postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)of patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 90 patients who underwent laparoscopic extensive hysterectomy under general anesthesia in Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University from August 2020 to June 2021 were selected,and they were divided into observation group and control group as random number table,with 45 cases in each group.Patients in control group supplemented fluid according to the guidance of urine output and mean arterial pressure(MAP).Patients in observation group supplemented fluid according to GDFT under guidance of stroke volume variation(SVV).The MAP values,heart rates(HR),SVV values and cardiac index(CI)values at the 10th min after patients entered the operation room(T0),the 3rd min after anesthesia induction(T1),and the 3rd min(T2),the 30th min(T3)and the 1st h(T4)after Terndelenburg position,and the time of completing surgery(T5)were observed.In addition,the intraoperative intake and output volume of liquid,the indicators of gastrointestinal function recovery after surgery,and the length of stay also were observed.The PONV incidence of main outcome indicators,and the PONV scores of postoperative 0-6h(T6),6-12 h(T7),12-24 h(T8)and 24-48 h(T9)of secondary outcome indicators,as well as the number of patients who received the treatment of antiemetic compensation after surgery,were analyzed.Results:The PONV incidence of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group(x2=6.40,P<0.05).The PONV scores of postoperative T6 and T7 of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group(t=4.92,3.42,P<0.05),respectively.The HR and CI value at T4 of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group(t=0.73,0.64,P<0.05),while the SVV of observation group increased from T3 to T5,with significant differences(t=2.28,3.42,4.10,P<0.05),respectively.The intraoperative crystalline fluid input and total infusion volume decreased,while colloidal fluid input increased,and the differences of them between two groups were significant(t=15.10,12.36,8.19,P<0.05),respectively.The postoperative exhaust time,defecation time and feeding time of observation group were significantly earlier than these of control group(t=3.79,2.09,2.54,P<0.05),respectively.But there was no statistical difference in the length of stay between the two groups.Conclusion:GDFT,which is guided by LIDCOrapid hemodynamic monitor,may decrease the incidence of PONV of gynecological laparoscopic surgery and the severity of PONV within 12 hours after surgery.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Introduction: Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) has been shown to reduce postoperative complications. The feasibility of GDFT in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) patients under general anesthesia has not yet been demonstrated. We examined whether GDFT could be applied in patients undergoing TAVR in general anesthesia and its impact on outcomes. Methods: Forty consecutive TAVR patients in the prospective intervention group with GDFT were compared to 40 retrospective TAVR patients without GDFT. Inclusion criteria were age ≥ 18 years, elective TAVR in general anesthesia, no participation in another interventional study. Exclusion criteria were lack of ability to consent study participation, pregnant or nursing patients, emergency procedures, preinterventional decubitus, tissue and/or extremity ischemia, peripheral arterial occlusive disease grade IV, atrial fibrillation or other severe heart rhythm disorder, necessity of usage of intra-aortic balloon pump. Stroke volume and stroke volume variation were determined with uncalibrated pulse contour analysis and optimized according to a predefined algorithm using 250 ml of hydroxyethyl starch. Results: Stroke volume could be increased by applying GDFT. The intervention group received more colloids and fewer crystalloids than control group. Total volume replacement did not differ. The incidence of overall complications as well as intensive care unit and hospital length of stay were comparable between both groups. GDFT was associated with a reduced incidence of delirium. Duration of anesthesia was shorter in the intervention group. Duration of the interventional procedure did not differ. Conclusion: GDFT in the intervention group was associated with a reduced incidence of postinterventional delirium.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Introduction: In prolonged physical activities, water replacement and muscle glycogen content are limiting factors in marathon runners. Carbohydrate-loading (CHO) in the days prior to endurance competition is a commonly employed method to optimise muscle glycogen stores and optimise exercise performance. Since each gram of muscle glycogen binds ∼2.7-4 grams of water, water retention may occur during carbohydrate-loading diets. Objective: To evaluate differences between CHO loading strategies (Bergström and Sherman) on intracellular (ICW) and extracellular (ECW) water content. Methods: Twenty-three runners were randomly allocated to two interventions (Bergström and Sherman) in a crossover design. Participants underwent a baseline evaluation before 3 days of glycogen depletion followed by 3 days of carbohydrate loading with a washout of 30 days consisting of normal diet and training. Multifrequency bioimpedance (BIS) was used to assess ICW and ECW at Baseline, Post-depletion and Post-CHO to determine any differences between Bergström and Sherman protocols. Blood samples were also obtained to assess potassium levels. Associations between ICW and ECW and muscle glycogen were determined. Results: There were no differences in ICW or ECW content between the two interventions at any moment. There was an effect of time for ICW, with an increase from Post-depletion to Post-CHO without any difference between interventions. Plasma potassium decreased from Baseline to Post-depletion in both conditions. There was no difference in muscle glycogen content between interventions or moments. Conclusion: There were no differences in ICW and ECW content between the Bergström and Sherman interventions at any moment. Level of Evidence I; Tests of Previously Developed Diagnostic Criteria.
RESUMEN Introducción: En actividades físicas prolongadas, la reposición de agua y el glucógeno muscular son factores limitantes en los corredores de maratón. La carga de carbohidratos (CHO) en los días previos a la competencia de resistencia es un método empleado para optimizar las reservas de glucógeno muscular y el rendimiento del ejercicio. Cómo cada gramo de glucógeno muscular se une a ≈ 2,7 a 4 gramos de agua, puede producirse retención de agua durante las dietas ricas en carbohidratos. Objetivo: Evaluar las diferencias entre las estrategias de carga de carbohidratos (Bergström y Sherman) en el contenido de agua intracelular (AIC) o extracelular (AEC). Métodos: Veintitrés corredores fueron asignados aleatoriamente a dos intervenciones (Bergström y Sherman) en un diseño cruzado. Los participantes se sometieron a una evaluación inicial antes de los 3 días de agotamiento del glucógeno, seguido de 3 días de carga de carbohidratos con un tiempo de "washout" de 30 días que consistía en una dieta y entrenamiento normales. Se utilizó bioimpedancia multifrecuencia (BIS) para evaluar AIC y AEC al inicio, después del agotamiento y después de CHO para determinar cualquier diferencia entre las dos intervenciones. También se obtuvieron muestras de sangre para evaluar el potasio. Se determinaron asociaciones entre AIC, AEC y glucógeno muscular. Resultados: No hubo diferencias en el contenido de AIC o AEC entre las dos intervenciones en ningún momento. Hubo un efecto de tiempo para AIC, con un aumento desde Post-agotamiento hasta Post-CHO sin ninguna diferencia entre las intervenciones. El potasio plasmático disminuyó entre el inicio y el post-agotamiento en ambas condiciones. No hubo diferencia en el contenido de glucógeno muscular entre las intervenciones o momentos. Conclusión: No hubo diferencias en el contenido de AIC y AEC entre las dos intervenciones en ningún momento. Nivel de Evidencia I; Pruebas de Criterios Diagnóstico Desarrollados Previamente.

ABSTRACT
Abstract Hemostasis plays a critical role in surgical procedures and is essential for a successful outcome. Advances in hemostatic agents offer new approaches to controlling bleeding thereby making surgeries safer. The appropriate choice of these agents is crucial. Volume replacement, another integral part of Patient Blood Management (PBM), maintains adequate tissue perfusion, preventing cellular damage. Individualization in fluid administration is vital with the choice between crystalloids and colloids depending on each case. Colloids, unlike crystalloids, increase oncotic pressure, contributing to fluid retention in the intravascular space. Understanding these aspects is essential to ensure safe and effective surgery, minimizing complications related to blood loss and maintaining the patient's hemodynamic status.

Abstract Background: The optimal amount for initial fluid resuscitation is still controversial in sepsis and the contribution of non-resuscitation fluids in fluid balance is unclear. We aimed to investigate the main components of fluid intake and fluid balance in both survivors and non-survivor patients with septic shock within the first 72 hours. Methods: In this prospective observational study in two intensive care units, we recorded all fluids administered intravenously, orally, or enterally, and losses during specific time intervals from vasopressor initiation: T1 (up to 24 hours), T2 (24 to 48 hours) and T3 (48 to 72 hours). Logistic regression and a mathematical model assessed the association with mortality and the influence of severity of illness. Results: We included 139 patients. The main components of fluid intake varied across different time intervals, with resuscitation and non-resuscitation fluids such as antimicrobials and maintenance fluids being significant contributors in T1 and nutritional therapy in T2/T3. A positive fluid balance both in T1 and T2 was associated with mortality (p = 0.049; p = 0.003), while nutritional support in T2 was associated with lower mortality (p = 0.040). The association with mortality was not explained by severity of illness scores. Conclusions: Non-resuscitation fluids are major contributors to a positive fluid balance within the first 48 hours of resuscitation. A positive fluid balance in the first 24 and 48 hours seems to independently increase the risk of death, while higher amount of nutrition seems protective. This data might inform fluid stewardship strategies aiming to improve outcomes and minimize complications in sepsis.
ABSTRACT
Resumo Dada a insuficiente evidência científica, decisões relativas à utilização de nutrição e hidratação artificiais em pacientes terminais configuram um importante dilema ético. Identifica-se um conflito entre as perspetivas de "tratar" e "cuidar", com variação quanto a sua utilização conforme o contexto legal e cultural de diferentes países. O intuito deste estudo é esclarecer se essa prática constitui uma medida de cuidado básico ou um tratamento fútil e desproporcionado. Procede-se a uma revisão das diretrizes e dos códigos deontológicos de diferentes países europeus. Em Portugal, na Itália e na Polônia, tal prática é vista como uma medida de cuidado básico; já em países como França, Inglaterra, Noruega, Irlanda, Alemanha, Finlândia, Holanda, Bélgica e Suíça, é considerada um tratamento fútil. Na Romênia, na Croácia e na Hungria, verifica-se um enquadramento ético e legal insuficiente. As diferenças de abordagem a doentes terminais podem ser reflexo das diferentes perspetivas culturais.
Abstract Given the lack of scientific evidence, decisions regarding the administration of artificial nutrition and hydration in terminally ill patients constitute an important ethical dilemma due to the conflict between "treat" and "care" perspectives and the varying usage depending on the legal and cultural background across countries. This study aims to explain whether this practice configures a basic care intervention or a futile medical treatment. Therefore, we review the national guidelines and codes of ethics from several European countries. Countries such as Portugal, Italy, and Poland view it as a basic care intervention, whereas France, England, Norway, Ireland, Germany, Finland, Netherlands, Belgium, and Switzerland, as a medical treatment. Moreover, countries such as Romania, Croatia, and Hungary lack such legal framework. The different approaches regarding the care of terminally ill patients can reflect differences on cultural perspectives.

Acute kidney injury and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome are common in the pediatric intensive care unit.Lung-kidney interaction in critically ill patients is closely related to anoxia, fluid management, and inflammatory response in acute kidney injury and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome patients.Strengthening the understanding of lung-kidney interaction can help clinicians to systematically manage critically ill patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the impacts of stroke volume variation (SVV)-guided goal-directed fluid therapy on intraoperative signs, intestinal barrier function and prognosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical rectal cancer surgery.Methods:A total of 90 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection for rectal cancer in Peking University International Hospital from May 2020 to May 2022 were prospectively selected as subjects, and divided into SVV group (45 cases) and traditional infusion group (45 cases) by random number table method. The SVV group was given SVV-guided goal-directed fluid therapy, and the traditional infusion group was given central venous pressure (CVP)-guided goal-directed fluid therapy. The operation-related indicators (urine volume, crystalloid volume, colloid volume, total fluid volume, blood loss and operation time), intraoperative signs indicators[heart rate (HR), CVP, mean arterial pressure (MAP)], intestinal barrier function indicators [diamine oxidase (DAO), D-lactic acid], inflammatory factor levels [interleukin-10 (IL-10), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)], and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the urine volume, blood loss and operation time between the two groups (all P>0.05), while the crystalloid volume, colloid volume and total fluid volume in the SVV group were greatly lower than those in the traditional infusion group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in HR between the two groups at different time points ( P>0.05). Compared with T 0, CVP at T 1 in the two groups was significantly decreased (all P<0.05), and increased at T 2 and T 3 compared with T 1 (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in MAP at different time points in the SVV group (all P>0.05). The MAP at T 1, T 2 and T 3 in the traditional infusion group was significantly lower than that at T 0 (all P<0.05), and the MAP at T 1, T 2 and T 3 in the SVV group was significantly higher than that in the traditional infusion group (all P<0.05). Compared with T 0, DAO and D-lactic acid levels were significantly increased at T 1, T 3, T 4 and T 5 in the two groups (all P<0.05), and DAO and D-lactic acid levels at T 1, T 3, T 4 and T 5 in the SVV group were significantly lower than those in the traditional infusion group (all P<0.05). Compared with T 0, serum IL-10 level in the two groups was significantly decreased at T 4 ( P<0.05), and serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels were significantly increased at T 4 (all P<0.05). The serum levels of IL-10, IL-6 and TNF-α in the SVV group at T 4 were significantly different from those in the traditional infusion group (all P<0.05). Compared with T 4, the serum levels of IL-10 at T 5 were significantly increased (all P<0.05), while the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly decreased (all P<0.05), but there was no statistical significance between the two groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of postoperative infection, anastomotic fistula, vomiting and nausea in SVV group (13.33%) was significantly lower than that in traditional infusion group (35.33%) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:SVV-guided goal-directed fluid therapy for patients undergoing laparoscopic radical rectal cancer can effectively stabilize intraoperative vital signs, reduce inflammation, improve intestinal barrier function, and improve prognosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of stroke volume variation(SVV) goal-directed fluid therapy on postoperative pulmonary complications(PPCs) after pediatric living donor liver transplantation.Methods:One hundred and twenty pediatric patients undergoing pediatric living-donor liver transplantation(all diagnosed with congenital biliary atresia) were divided into 2 groups( n=60 each) using the random number table method: control group and SVV group. Intraoperative fluid management was guided by central venous pressure and mean arterial pressure in control group, while by SVV combined with cardiac output in SVV group. Intraoperative circulation, fluid intake and usage of vasoactive drug were recorded. Central venous blood samples were collected to determine the concentrations of serum Clara cell 16 kDa protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha before anesthesia(T 0), at the end of anhepatic phase(T 1), at 3 h of neohepatic phase(T 2), at the end of surgery(T 3) and at 24 h after operation(T 4). Pulmonary ultrasonography was performed before surgery, at the end of surgery and at 1, 3 and 7 days after surgery. The pediatric patients were followed up for 1 week after surgery to record the PPCs, including acute lung injury, pulmonary infection, pulmonary atelectasis, pleural effusion and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Results:Compared with control group, the incidence of PPCs, acute lung injury and pulmonary infection was significantly decreased, the pulmonary ultrasound score was decreased at the end of surgery and at 1, 3 and 7 days after surgery, the usage of intraoperative dobutamine was increased, the duration of postreperfusion syndrome was shortened, the fluid intake and epinephrine usage were reduced, and the serum Clara cell 16 kDa protein, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 concentrations were decreased at T 1-T 4 in SVV group( P<0.05). Conclusions:SVV goal-directed fluid management can reduce the development of PPCs in pediatric living donor liver transplantation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of individualized mini-fluid challenge test in determining the fluid responsiveness in the patients undergoing surgery in prone position.Methods:A total of 47 patients of either sex, aged > 18 yr, with boy mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective spinal surgery in prone position, were included. The volume-controlled mode was used for mechanical ventilation, and the tidal volume was set at 8 ml/kg. The hemodynamic parameters were monitored by FloTrac/Vigileo system. The patient was changed to prone position at 5 min after endotracheal intubation (T 1), hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 sodium chloride injection 2 ml/kg was intravenously given at 5 min of prone position (T 2), and fluid 3 ml/kg was continuously infused at 1 min after 2 ml/kg fluid infusion (T 3), and both infusion rates were 0.5 ml·kg -1·min -1. A mini-fluid challenge test was performed during T 2-T 3 period, the standard volume therapy (total infusion of liquid 5 ml/kg) was carried out from T 2 to 1 min after infusion of liquid 3 ml/kg (T 4). The rate of change in SV at T 3 time point (ΔSVT 3) was calculated relative to T 2 time point, and the rate of change in SV at T 4 time point (ΔSVT 4) was calculated relative to T 2 time point. Positive fluid responsiveness test was defined as an increase in ΔSVT 4≥10%, and patients were divided into volume response group (Rs group) and non-volume response group (NRs group). ΔSVT 3, ΔSVT 4 and stroke volume variation and pulse pressure variation at T 3 and T 4 time points were selected, the receiver operating characteristic curve predicting fluid responsiveness was generated, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated. Results:Forty-one patients were finally enrolled, including 18 cases in Rs group and 23 cases in NRs group. The AUC of ΔSVT 3 determining fluid responsiveness was 0.976, with the sensitivity 0.944 and specificity 0.957. The AUC of ΔSVT 4 determining fluid responsiveness was 0.971, with sensitivity 0.889 and specificity 0.95. The AUC of stroke volume variation at T 3 and T 4 in predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.632 and 0.609, respectively. The AUC of pulse pressure variation at T 3 and T 4 predicting fluid responsiveness was 0.470 and 0.380, respectively. Conclusions:Individualized mini-fluid challenge test (2 mg/kg colloidal solution) can accurately determine the fluid responsiveness in the patients undergoing surgery in prone position.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of stroke volume variation (SVV)-guided fluid therapy on perioperative haemodynamics and tissue perfusion in the patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing parathyroidectomy.Methods:One hundred and twenty-one patients of either sex, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ, with body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, with ESRD undergoing elective parathyroidectomy, who received haemodialysis treatment within 24 h before surgery, were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into standard restrictive fluid therapy group (group SRT, n=61) and goal-directed fluid therapy group (group GDT, n=60) using a random number table method. Group SRT received restrictive fluid therapy, with a continuous infusion of 0.9% normal saline at a rate of 4 ml·kg -1·h -1. Group GDT received goal-directed fluid therapy guided by SVV, and when the SVV≥10% lasted for 5 min, the 0.9% normal saline 3 ml/kg was infused within 5 min until SVV<10%. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was maintained at ≥90 mmHg or mean arterial pressure(MAP) at ≥65 mmHg throughout the perioperative period in both groups. The intraoperative volume of fluid infused, usage rate and consumption of intraoperative vasoactive drugs were recorded, and arterial blood lactate (Lac) level, MAP, heart rate, cardiac output, and inferior vena cava collapse index (IVC-CI) after removal of endotracheal tube at the end of surgery were measured. MAP was continuously recorded within 12 h after surgery, and MAP variability (CV MAP) was calculated. The occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events within 30 days after operation was also recorded. Results:Compared with group SRT, the intraoperative volume of fluid infused was significantly increased, the usage rate of ephedrine and norepinephrine was decreased, the consumption of ephedrine was reduced, and the percentage of postoperative IVC-CI<50% and cardiac output were increased, the percentage of Lac≥2.0 mmol/L and CV MAP were decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events within 30 days after surgery in group GDT ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with restrictive fluid therapy, SVV-guided fluid therapy can optimize the perioperative hemodynamics and tissue perfusion in the patients with ESRD undergoing parathyroidectomy.
ABSTRACT
Objective Although goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) has been proven to be effective in reducing the incidence of postoperative complications, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the mediating role of intraoperative hemodynamic lability in the association between GDFT and the incidence of postoperative complications. We further tested the role of this mediation effect using mean arterial pressure, a hemodynamic indicator. Methods This secondary analysis used the dataset of a completed nonrandomized controlled study to investigate the effect of GDFT on the incidence of postoperative complications in patients undergoing posterior spine arthrodesis. We used a simple mediation model to test whether there was a mediation effect of average real variability between the association of GDFT and postoperative complications. We conducted mediation analysis using the mediation package in R (version 3.1.2), based on 5,000 bootstrapped samples, adjusting for covariates. Results Among the 300 patients in the study, 40% (120/300) developed postoperative complications within 30 days. GDFT was associated with fewer 30-day postoperative complications after adjustment for confounders (odds ratio: 0.460, 95% CI: 0.278, 0.761; P = 0.003). The total effect of GDFT on postoperative complications was -0.18 (95% CI: -0.28, -0.07; P < 0.01). The average causal mediation effect was -0.08 (95% CI: -0.15, -0.04; P < 0.01). The average direct effect was -0.09 (95% CI: -0.20, 0.03; P = 0.17). The proportion mediated was 49.9% (95% CI: 18.3%, 140.0%). Conclusions The intraoperative blood pressure lability mediates the relationship between GDFT and the incidence of postoperative complications. Future research is needed to clarify whether actively reducing intraoperative blood pressure lability can prevent postoperative complications.

Objective:To examine the renoprotective benefits of stroke volume variation(SVV)-guided fluid therapy in older patients under-going laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection with combined administration of epidural and general anesthesia.Methods:A total of 100 older patients underwent laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection with combined administration of epidural and general anesthesia at The Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University.Participants were randomly allocated into the control(group C)and experimental groups(group S).Each group consisted of an equal distribution of 50 patients.Group C received routine rehydration,while group S under-went SVV-guided fluid rehydration.To compare the two groups,the levels of serum creatinine(Scr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin protein(NGAL),and kidney injury molecule-1(KIM-1)were analyzed before and after surgery.Results:NGAL concentrations were significantly reduced in group S compared with those in group C at 2 and 24h after surgery(P=0.033,P=0.014).KIM-1 levels were significantly lower in group S than in group C 24h after surgery(P=0.012).Furthermore,Scr levels were significantly lower in group S than in group C 1 day after surgery(P=0.049).The incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury(AKI)was significantly higher in group C than in group S(P=0.027).Conclusions:In older patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer,the imple-mentation of SVV-guided fluid therapy can improve postoperative plasma markers of renal injury and reduce the incidence of postoperative AKI,thereby protecting renal function.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of dexmedetomidine combined with goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT)on hemodynamics and cerebral oxygen supply of patients undergoing cerebral aneurysm clipping.Methods A total of 78 patients undergoing cerebral aneurysm clipping surgery in Jinhua Municipal Central Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected and divided into control group and observation group according to random number table method,with 39 cases in each group.The patients in control group received conventional fluid therapy,and the patients in observation group received dexmedetomidine pump +GDFT.Mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),cardiac index(CI),brain metabolic markers,neuron specific enolase(NSE),S100β levels and mini mental status examination(MMSE)scores at different time points[before anesthesia induction(T0),immediately after tracheal intubation(T1),beginning of surgery(T2),opening meninges(T3),immediately after aneurysm clipping(T4),end of surgery(T5),24h after surgery(T6),72h after surgery(T7)],and fluid intake and outflow of two groups were compared.Results MAP at T1-T4 and CI at T1-T3 in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The colloid volume,total infusion volume and urine volume in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The serum levels of NSE and S100β at T5-T7 were significantly higher than those at T0 in both groups(P<0.05).The levels of serum NSE and S100β at T5 and T6 in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).The oxygen content in jugular venous blood(CjvO2)at T1-T4 was significantly lower than that at T0 in control group(P<0.05).Cerebral oxygen extraction ratio at T1 was significantly higher than that at T0 in both groups(P<0.05).CjvO2 at T3-T4 in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(P<0.05).At T6 and T7,MMSE scores in two groups were significantly lower than at T0 in this group(P<0.05).MMSE score at T6 of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine combined with GDFT can effectively improve preload and brain function,stabilize intraoperative circulatory function,and improve early postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing cerebral aneurysm clipping.
ABSTRACT
Introducción. La variación de la velocidad máxima aórtica con la ventilación mecánica (ΔVpeakAo) ha demostrado ser el mejor predictor de respuesta a volumen en pediatría. Existe evidencia en adultos de que la variación de velocidad máxima de flujo carotídeo (ΔVpeakCar) es predictor de respuesta a fluidos. Al momento es escasa la información sobre este índice en pediatría. Su beneficio se basa en la no-invasividad, y que para su medición no es necesaria la ecocardiografía ni el acceso al tórax del paciente. Objetivo. El objetivo general de este trabajo fue estudiar la correlación y la concordancia de ΔVpeakCar con ΔVpeakAo en una población pediátrica bajo ventilación mecánica. Metodología. Se incluyeron pacientes de 0 a 12 años. Se registraron flujos aórtico y carotídeos máximos y mínimos y se calculó ΔVpeakCar y ΔVpeakAo. Para analizar correlación y concordancia entre las variables se utilizó el test de Pearson, análisis de Bland-Altman y análisis de los 4-cuadrantes. Resultados. Se estudiaron 58 pacientes, 13 lactantes (menores 12 meses), 21 preescolares (12-60 meses) y 24 escolares (mayores a 60 meses). Se observó una correlación significativa entre ΔVpeakAo y ΔVpeakCar (r=0,85; p<0,05) con un coeficiente de determinación de r2=0,72. El análisis de Bland-Altman mostró un sesgo del 0,15% (IC95%, -0.7-1.0) con un límite de concordancia del -6,1 a 6,2%. La concordancia fue 85%, con un sesgo angular de 4,5°±31°. El análisis por subgrupos mostró un r2 de 0.89 en escolares, 0.56 en preescolares y 0.45 en lactantes. La concordancia fue de 100% en escolares, 95% en prescolares y 93% en lactantes. Discusión y conclusiones. El registro de ΔVpeakCar fue viable. Al analizar la capacidad de ΔVpeakCar de sustituir a ΔVpeakAo en el total de la muestra, no es buena La correlación y concordancia son mejores en escolares. Es necesario continuar estudiando este nuevo índice.
Introduction. The variation in maximum aortic velocity with mechanical ventilation (ΔVpeakAo) has proven to be the most effective predictor of fluid response in pediatrics. While there is evidence in adults that the variation in maximum carotid flow velocity (ΔVpeakCar) predicts fluid response, information on this index in pediatrics remains limited. Its advantage lies in its non-invasive nature, eliminating the need for echocardiography or thoracic access for recording. Objective. This study aims to examine the correlation and concordance between ΔVpeakCar and ΔVpeakAo in a pediatric population. Methodology. The study included patients aged 0 to 12 years. Maximum and minimum aortic and carotid flows were recorded, and ΔVpeakCar and ΔVpeakAo were calculated. Correlation and agreement between variables were analyzed using the Pearson test, Bland Altman analysis, and 4-quadrant analysis. Results. A total of 58 patients were studied, comprising 13 infants (under 12 months), 21 preschoolers (12-60 months), and 24 school-aged children (over 60 months). A significant correlation was observed between ΔVpeakAo and ΔVpeakCar (r=0.85; p<0.05) with a coefficient of determination, r²=0.72. The Bland-Altman analysis revealed a bias of 0.15% (95% CI, -0.7-1.0) with an agreement limit of -6.1% to 6.2%. The concordance rate was 85%, with an angular bias of 4.5°±31°. Subgroup analysis showed r² values of 0.89 in school-aged children, 0.56 in preschoolers, and 0.45 in infants. Concordance rates were 100% in school-aged children, 95% in preschoolers, and 93% in infants. Discussion and Conclusions. The measurement of ΔVpeakCar proved feasible. However, when considering its ability to replace ΔVpeakAo, the results are suboptimal. Correlation and concordance are stronger in school-aged children. Further investigation into this new index is warranted.
