Current and future strategies to monitor and manage coagulation in ECMO patients

Thrombosis Journal, 2023
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can provide life-saving support for critically ill patients suffering severe respiratory and/or cardiac failure. However, thrombosis and bleeding remain common and complex problems to manage.

Lung electrical impedance tomography during positioning, weaning and chest physiotherapy in mechanically ventilated critically ill patients: a narrative review

Annals of Intensive Care
Background: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, radiation free, lung imaging technique of lung ventilation with a low spatial but a high temporal resolution available at the bedside. Lung perfusion, and hence ventilation-to-perfusion

Physiological and clinical significance of mean circulatory and mean systemic filling pressure

Annals of Intensive Care
A pressure distends blood vessels even when the heart is not beating and there is no blood flow. This is called mean circulatory filling pressure (MCFP). We will first discuss why it is physiologically necessary to have this base pressure.

Platelet transfusion practice in the intensive care unit: the Nine-I international platelet transfusion survey

Annals of Intensive Care
Background: Platelet transfusions are frequent in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), either as prophylaxis against bleeding complications or as treatment for bleeding.

Applied physiology at the bedside: using invasive blood pressure as a true monitoring tool

Annals of Intensive Care
Invasive arterial blood pressure (BP) monitoring is a cornerstone of hemodynamic assessment in critically ill patients. This review explores how the individual components of BP—systolic arterial (SAP), diastolic arterial (DAP), mean arterial (MAP), and ...

Crosstalk between lung and extrapulmonary organs in sepsis-related acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome

Annals of Intensive Care
Sepsis-related acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality, yet the efficacy of current treatments is limited.

Ultrasound indicators of organ venous congestion: a narrative review

Annals of Intensive Care
Acute kidney injury and other organ dysfunction in the setting of heart failure are primarily determined by a low cardiac output status and venous congestion, which is a sequence of increases in heart filling pressures.

Linking cell function with perfusion: Insights from the transcatheter delivery of bone marrow-derived CD133 + cells in ischemic refractory cardiomyopathy trial (RECARDIO) 11 Medical and Health Sciences 1103 Clinical Sciences 11 Medical and Health Sciences 1102 Cardiorespiratory Medicine and Haematology

, 2018
Background: Cell therapy with bone marrow (BM)-derived progenitors has emerged as a promising therapeutic for refractory angina (RA) patients. In the present study, we evaluated the safety and preliminary efficacy of transcatheter delivery of autologous BM-derived advanced therapy medicinal product CD133 + cells (ATMP-CD133) in RA patients, correlating

Hypercoagulability and the risk of recurrence in young women with myocardial infarction or ischaemic stroke: A cohort study 11 Medical and Health Sciences 1102 Cardiorespiratory Medicine and Haematology

, 2019
Background: We aimed to investigate the role of hypercoagulability on the risk of lifetime cardiovascular recurrences after myocardial infarction or ischaemic stroke. Methods: Young women (< 50 years) with either myocardial infarction (n = 197) or ischaemic stroke (n = 107) were followed between 1995 and 2012 in the RATIO follow-up study.

Treatment response to indacaterol/glycopyrronium versus salmeterol/fluticasone in exacerbating COPD patients by gender

Respiratory research, 2019
Background: The burden of chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is increasing in women, with recent evidence suggesting gender differences in disease characteristics and potentially in treatment outcomes. Methods: FLAME was a 52-week randomized controlled trial in patients with severe-to-very-severe COPD and a history of exacerbations.
