Application of PICCO technique in fluid management of the traumatic patients with capillary leak syndrome / 实用医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the significance of pulse indicating the continuous cardiac output (PICCO) technique in patients with post-trauma capillary leak syndrome (PTCLS). Methods Twenty traumatic patients with PTCLS received PICCO monitor from 2011 to 2014 were enrolled in this study. analyzed, The patients, with twelve males and eight females, aged from twenty three to fifty. And twenty patients in the control group, with ten males and ten females, aged from twenty one to fifty two. Twenty six patients were injuried by traffic, ten patients were injuried by crash and four patients were injuried by sword. No significant differences were found in age、gender、weight、scores of ISS、Murray and APACHEⅡof all patients. All patients were survived. The balance of fluids, Lactate, Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and the mean artery pressure (MAP) were compared at 0, 24, 48 and 72 h after entering into the ICU. The duration of ICU stay and ventilation were also compared. Results (1)No significant differences in MAP、Lac and ScvO2 were observed in two groups. (2)No significant differences in the balance of fluids when patients entered into ICU, but significant differences were found at 24, 48 and 72 h post-entering into ICU (P < 0.05). (3)Significant differences in the duration of ICU stay and ventilation between the two groups were observed (P < 0.05). Conclusion PICCO technique can provid a quantitative target for PTCLS patients, with decreasing fluid infusion, and reducing the duration of ICU stay and ventilation.
