Mechanical Power. Physiological basis. Pronostic tool.
Mechanical Power Ratio (measured/expected) better ?

Safer endotracheal intubation
Complications are frequent. Mostly hypotension...and propofol used as induction agent ?
CV collapse multifactorial
PREPARE I and II trials : fluid boluses mostly useless
Use capno to detect esophageal intubation +++ ImageImageImage

Day 3 of #ISICEM23 begins with
Sepsis: the first steps

There are many things to do in the first few hours of sepsis care, e.g.,
🦠Sampling for pathogens
💉Antibiotics
📝Severity assessment
🫀Resuscitation

This session will address a whole picture of the initial TO DOs!
@ISICEM
Sepsis prediction is challenging

🔸Heterogeneity
🔸High AUROC ≠ High utility in clinical context
🔸Poor generalizability to different settings (units, department)
🔸Necessity of prediction??

@ISICEM #ISICEM23
Septic shock prediction @KhannaAshishCCM

🔸Hypotension increases the risk of death
🔸Patients at risk of shock development are the target population (proactive🟡 rather than reactive🔴)
🔸But continuous monitoring is lacking because they are out of ICU

A. Demoule: How to assess respiratory muscles strength? #ISICEM23
❌ EMG and p0.1 - they measure drive!
❌ Clinical Examination? - limb muscles ≠ diaphragm strength
- Patient on MV (Pressure Support):
✅ diaphragm ultrasound (TFdi)
✅ measure Pocc (occlusion pressure)
(1/3)
How to perform? #Diaphragm #Ultrasound #ICISEM23
❌ You cannot use if the patient doesn’t trigger the MV
➡️ Intercostal view
➡️ Linear probe
➡️ 8-9 IC space
➡️ Mid axillary line
➡️ 2D then M-Mode
✔️Diaphragm Thickening Fraction: TFdi
✔️ Weaning failure if TFdi < 29%
(2/3)
❗️A low TFdi or Pocc predicts diaphragm weakness!

If patient is fully cooperative, try Maximum Inspiratory Pressure (high value excludes muscle weakness).

The #vasopressor session has started with 1️⃣“When is radial artery pressure unreliable?”

Detection
🔸Invasive vs Non-invasive
🔸Brain monitoring
🔸Mitral valve gradient
🔸Artery stenosis
🔸Waveform

👇Possible mechanisms of radial vs femoral differences
@ISICEM #isicem23
2️⃣Peripheral vasopressor use @HalliePrescott

🔸Low rates of complications reported up to 48 h with monitoring protocol

🔸Peripheral administration may avoid central line insertion (& its complications)

🔸Peripheral administration is becoming more common.

@ISICEM #isicem23
3️⃣Early #norepinephrine infusion by Prof. JL Teboul.

🔸In 2018, 12% of intensivists used early norepinephrine but experts seemed to like it.

🔸Norepinephrine may increase preload/cardiac contractility

🔸Small RCTs suggest a trend of clinical benefits

Future sepsis therapies session💉🦠

Disease tolerance by Christopher Seymour @seymoc

🔸Difficulties in measurement
🔸May become a new focus in future clinical trials

@ISICEM #isicem23
Immune stimulation by Anthony Gordon @agordonICU

🔸Sepsis occurs as a result of dysregulated immune reactions.

🤔What happens when stimulating the immune system in patients with immune suppression?

A large RCT on GM-CSF is ongoing.

Coagulation therapies in sepsis🩸

Essential tasks before planning and performing future clinical trials
-risk stratification when assessing eligibility (= personalization)😷
-identification of optimal treatment timing/duration⏰

Important results presented during the opening ceremony #ISICEM23!
@ISICEM
✅ Hydrocortisone reduces mortality in sCAP (bit.ly/3ZbqHUc)
✅ Ravulizumab did not improve survival or other key outcomes in patients hospitalised with severe COVID-19 (bit.ly/3JVDdTm)
✅ no benefit in PCC administration in trauma patients at risk of massive transfusion (bit.ly/3Jvu7va)
✅ therapeutic-dose heparin: beneficial in hospitalized C19 patients less severely ill at presentation or lower body mass index (bit.ly/3Jq1uiE)

(2/3)
✅ Low-calorie low-protein feeding (acute phase of critical illness): Faster recovery, fewer complications (bit.ly/3TtMg0X)
✅ In the absence of early parenteral nutrition, tight glucose control did not reduce duration of ICU dependency.
(3/3)
