Management of arterial PaCO2 in the first week after TBI

The manipulation of arterial carbon dioxide levels (PaCO2) is easy, and hyperventilation (HV) has been a common ICP-lowering strategy for over half a century.

However, hyperventilation-induced vasoconstriction is a double-edged sword. It reduces cerebral blood volume and intracranial volume, and therefore, lowers ICP.

We observed huge variability among centres in PaCO2 values and use of HV. Although causal inferences cannot be drawn from these observational data, our results suggest that, in patients with severe intracranial hypertension, HV is not associated with worse long-term clinical outcomes.

Sepsis hospitalisation and risk of subsequent cardiovascular events in adults

Sepsis hospitalisation and risk of subsequent cardiovascular events in adults

Sepsis refers to a dysregulated response to infection-causing end-organ dysfunction. It is associated with short-term risks such as shock and in-hospital death. Meanwhile, long-term consequences among...

Role of pre-clinical experimentation in intensive care: from ethical to clinical practice

Role of pre-clinical experimentation in intensive care: from ethical to clinical practice

Preclinical studies precede most clinical trials. They help identify criteria for evaluating human safety, including signs and symptoms that should be monitored closely during early clinical trials.Th...
