OBJECTIVE

To compare the sedation practices of adult intubated patients with COVID-19-related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (C-ARDS) and ARDS from other causes, and their impact on clinical outcomes in a tertiary hospital.

METHODS

We performed a retrospective cohort on the sedation practices of adult intubated patients with C-ARDS and non-C-ARDS admitted to the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital from January 2021 to December 2021. Electronic medical records were reviewed to obtain sedative use, sedative dosages, clinical outcomes, and complications.

RESULTS

Among the 150 included patients, 112 had C-ARDS, and 38 had non-C-ARDS. The C-ARDS group showed a significant difference with the non-C-ARDS group in terms of BMI (24.11 vs. 21.09 kg/m2, p < 0.001), use of higher PEEP (16 vs. 10, p < 0.001), and prone positioning (40.18% vs 2.63%, p < 0.01). In terms of sedation practice, C-ARDS patients targeted deeper RASS scores (p=0.038), with a significantly higher proportion receiving more than one sedative (82.14% vs. 18.42, p < 0.001) than non-C-ARDS patients. Sedation doses for midazolam (78 mg/d vs. 36 mg/d; p=0.01) and propofol (mean 2626±1312.97 mg/d vs. 1742±380.99 mg/d; p=0.007), were significantly higher among C-ARDS versus non-C-ARDS group. Duration of hospitalization (9 vs. 20 days; p < 0.001) and ventilator use (7 vs. 14.50 days; p < 0.001) were significantly shorter in the C-ARDS group, albeit with a high mortality (100% vs. 89.47%; p=0.004). Shock-requiring pressor was significantly associated with multiple sedation use [OR=15.11 (1.52-2032.89); p=0.017] and combination use of benzodiazepine and non-benzodiazepines [OR=11.51 (1.17-1541.91); p=0.034] in the C-ARDS but not the C-ARDS group.

CONCLUSION

Patients with C-ARDS had higher sedation requirements in terms of dosage and number of sedatives. The use of multiple sedatives was significantly associated with shock-requiring pressor. We recommend the development of a sedation protocol to guide sedation practices and monitoring of complications in the critically ill.

OBJECTIVES

Clinical pathways (CPs) ensure adherence to heart failure (HF) management guidelines. To optimize quality care in a low resource setting, an evidence-based care pathway for the management of acute HF was implemented at the emergency department (ED) of the Philippine General Hospital (PGH), the designated national tertiary hospital and referral center. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of adults with acute HF admitted at the ED and evaluate the quality of care they received, measured using physician adherence to the hospital’s acute heart failure CP.

METHODS

This was a retrospective, descriptive cohort study. We reviewed the inpatient charts of all adult patients with acute HF admitted to the ED of the PGH and referred to the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine between December 1, 2022 and May 31, 2023. Quality of care was assessed based on adherence to quality indicators adapted from routine and conditional order sets detailed in the pathway. Descriptive statistics was utilized to describe patient characteristics, quality of care, and outcomes.

RESULTS

Two hundred thirty-six (236) patients were included, with a mean age of 51.8 years. Majority were male (53.4%); hypertension (61.4%) and ischemic heart disease (53.8%) were the most common comorbidities, and infection the most common precipitant of decompensation (60.6%). There were optimal adherence rates to routine orders, which included referrals to Internal Medicine and Cardiology, baseline vital signs monitoring, fluid intake and output monitoring, chest radiograph, complete blood count, blood urea nitrogen, sodium, potassium, prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time, arterial blood gas, urinalysis, and N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide. Conditional orders, such as oxygen support, focused echocardiography, thyroid - stimulating hormone, and the use of vasopressors, diuretics, and venous thromboembolism prophylactic agents, were optimally performed when warranted. However, we noted suboptimal adherence to certain resource-intensive conditional orders, such as hourly monitoring of urine output (61.4%), hooking to cardiac monitor (53.8%), and performance of 12-lead ECG within 10 minutes (56.8%). Further, only 43.9% of patients were referred to the intensive care unit. Troponin I, calcium, magnesium, and albumin were ordered in excess.

CONCLUSION

Overall adherence rate of physicians to the hospital’s Acute Heart Failure Pathway was satisfactory. Work is needed to improve adherence to hourly urine output monitoring, consistent hooking to cardiac monitor, and timely performance of 12-lead ECG – an effort that begins with expanding in-hospital diagnostic equipment and human resource supply. We recommend continuous pathway implementation with periodic evaluation and stakeholder feedback to further improve quality of care.

Abstract Background: Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS) encompasses cognitive, motor, and mental impairments persisting for years in ICU survivors. Despite its significance, the prevalence of PICS in Indonesia remains uncertain due to limited research and a lack of validated measurement tools. This study aims to translate and validate the PICS Questionnaire for use among ICU survivors in Indonesia. Methods: The study followed a two-phase approach: translation and evaluation. The translation phase adhered to the 10-step process of the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) guidelines. The analysis phase involved 184 subjects, using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) for validation and Cronbach's α and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) for reliability testing. Results: The CFA reported factor loadings (λ >0.40) for each item in its relevant domain. Fit index values indicated a good-to-acceptable fit. Internal reliability was high for the mental, physical, and cognitive domains (0.812 vs. 0.779 vs. 0.855), with Cronbach's α of > 0.70. Test-retest reliability and ICC demonstrated dependable results (>0.70) for each domain. Conclusion: The translated and validated Indonesian PICS Questionnaire demonstrates good validity and reliability. This tool will enable healthcare professionals to assess PICS among ICU survivors in Indonesia and facilitate further research on its prevalence and impact on quality of life.

Simiao Yong'an Decoction is derived from the New Compilation of Proved Prescriptions(Yan Fang Xin Bian). This formula has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying as well as activating blood and relieving pain. It is mainly used to treat gangrene caused by excessive heat toxin and with the clinical manifestations including dark red and slightly swollen limbs, scorching skin, ulceration and odor, severe pain, occasional fever, thirst, red tongue, and rapid pulse. Nowadays, Simiao Yong'an Decoction is mostly used in the treatment of thromboangitis obliterans, ulcers in arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower limbs, stent restenosis after angioplasty of lower limbs, ecthyma, deep venous thrombosis, diabetic arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower limbs, diabetic foot ulcer, acute knee arthritis, varicose veins of lower limbs, coronary heart disease, post percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI), sepsis, gout, tumor, chronic tonsillitis in children, and other diseases. It has been identified that diabetic foot with infection, sepsis, arteriosclerosis obliterans, and thromboangitis obliterans belong to the category of gangrene in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), and Simiao Yong'an Decoction is an ancient specialized prescription for treating this disease. The diseases that can be treated by Simiao Yong'an Decoction include arteriosclerosis obliterans, thromboangitis obliterans, diabetic foot, and ecthyma. The symptoms that can be treated by Simiao Yong'an Decoction include dark red, blackened, slightly swollen, burning, ulceration, and odor in the fingers and toes, and toes falling off, hands and feet decaying and collapsing, severe and unbearable pain in some cases. Furthermore, this formula is effective for skin ulceration spreading, pus dripping, swollen and proliferating lymph nodes. These symptoms are always accompanied by dry mouth, thirst, irritability, yellow urine, and dry stool. The TCM symptoms include red tongue, thin and white tongue coating, and wiry and rapid pulse. In the case with the complication of refractory hypotension, large dosage of Astragali Radix is used to replenish Qi, reinforce healthy Qi, and expressing toxin, which can often achieve blood pressure-elevating and anti-inflammatory effects. Simiao Yong'an Decoction is often combined with Simiao Pills and Guizhi Fuling Pills. High-dose medication is the key to the effectiveness of this formula. Integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine plays an important role in the treatment of diabetic foot with infection, sepsis, septic shock, arteriosclerosis obliterans, and thromboangitis obliterans.

BACKGROUND: Hospitalization in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) exposes preterm infants to adverse stimuli, including continuous 24-hour lighting. There is currently no standardized NICU layout advised for the best development of preterm neonates. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of cycled light (CL) exposure on clinical outcomes in premature infants admitted to NICU as synthesized in previous studies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This meta-analysis protocol was developed following the preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) statement. A search was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and Cochrane databases using the MeSH/key words: ―light exposure‖ AND pre-term AND cycled AND (RCT OR trials OR ―randomized controlled trial). The pooled Mean Difference with corresponding 95% CI was computed for weight gain, duration until start of enteral feeding, and duration of ICU stay using the Mantel–Haenszel random-effect model. RESULTS: Nine studies were included. The pooled mean difference showed that among preterm infants who had cycled light exposure, average daily weight gain (MD=6.24 grams, 95%CI=1.36 to 11.13, p=0.01) was significantly higher than those with continuous light exposure. The average time to start enteral feeding (MD=-3.84 days, 95%CI=-7.56 to -0.13, p=0.04) and average ICU stay (MD=-8.43 days, 95%CI=-12.54 to -4.31, p<0.0001) among neonates who had cycled light exposure were significantly shorter. CONCLUSION Benefits were seen in preterm infants when exposed to cycled light as opposed to continuous light. CL exposed infants showed a daily weight gain that was 6.24 grams higher, on average, and began enteral feeding nearly 4 days sooner. It led to a decrease in the duration of ICU stay by around 8 to 9 days on average. Further trials to determine the impact of cycled light exposure on morbidity and mortality among preterm neonates is recommended.

Objective:To determine the effectiveness of a one-stage hearing screening protocol in detecting hearing loss in high risk newborns at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center.

Methods:
Design:Cross-Sectional Study
Setting:Tertiary Government Training Hospital
Population:High-risk newborns admitted at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center from March to December 2023 underwent a one stage universal newborn hearing screening protocol. Excluded from the study were patients who were admitted for less than 48 hours, without consent from their parents or guardians and babies who were not cleared medically to undergo testing, and those who presented with aural atresia and/or any physical anomaly of the head and the external ear.

Results:A total of 169 babies were initially seen with 16 babies lost to follow up resulting in a final total of 153 babies (or 306 ears) tested. The refer and false positive rates were 9.8% and 8.92%, respectively, on average comparable to or even better than the two-step protocol in most studies. Sensitivity was determined to be 100% while specificity was 91.08%. The incidence of hearing loss in the study population was 19.8/1000, consistent with various study outcomes for high risk newborns. There was no reported incidence of auditory neuropathy in this study. The primary risk factors that were present in babies with hearing loss were: low birth weight, prematurity, neonatal intensive care unit admission of more than 5 days and exposure to ototoxic medications.

Conclusion:The one-staged Automated Auditory Brainstem Response (AABR) is an effective and efficient newborn hearing screening protocol for high-risk newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) setting and eventually, may be considered as an alternative hearing screening technique whenever available in this cohort. More studies about improving newborn hearing screening, cost-analysis, diagnostics and interventions of hearing loss should be pursued in implementation of the Universal Hearing Screening Law in the Philippines.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically summarize and analyze the project applications and funding in the field of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine by the Medical Science Department of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) from 2010 to 2024, and to identify research hotspots and developmental trends, providing scientific references for the high-quality development of the Emergency and Critical Care Medicine in China. METHODS: Data on all project applications and funding in the field of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine (application code H16) from 2010 to 2024 were collected from the NSFC Grants System, including project application numbers, funding numbers and amounts, project categories, regional and affiliated institutions distributions. Keyword co-occurrence analysis was conducted using VOSviewer software to identify research hotspots, and results were presented using bar charts, pie charts, and Sankey diagrams. RESULTS: Over the past 15 years, the Emergency and Critical Care Medicine field of NSFC received 13 747 project applications and funded 1 781 projects, with a cumulative funding amount of 8.064 99 billion RMB. The annual number of applications increased from 296 in 2010 to 1 971 in 2024, representing an average annual growth rate of 40.42%. Similarly, the number of funded projects grew from 45 in 2010 to 175 in 2024, with an average annual growth rate of 20.63%, while annual funding rose from 20.01 million RMB in 2010 to 74.20 million RMB in 2024, reflecting an average annual growth rate of 19.34%. The majority of funded projects belonged to the General Program (774 projects), Young Scientists Fund (754 projects), and Regional Science Fund (163 projects), collectively accounting for 94.95% of total funded projects (1 691/1 781). Funding was concentrated in two primary research areas: Organ Dysfunction and Support (H1602, 751 projects) and Sepsis (H1601, 612 projects), together comprising 76.53% of total funded projects (1 363/1 781). The total number of funded projects (1 781 projects) in Emergency and Critical Care Medicine was fewer than the average across the subfields of Medical Science Department (4 181 projects). Shanghai (305 projects, 17.1%), Guangdong (222 projects, 12.5%), Jiangsu (154 projects, 8.6%), Zhejiang (149 projects, 8.4%), and Beijing (134 projects, 7.5%) ranked as the top five regions in terms of funded projects. Keyword co-occurrence analysis revealed that sepsis, organ injury, pulmonary injury and poisoning, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation were the main research hotspots in the field of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine over the past 15 years. CONCLUSION From 2010 to 2024, the NSFC funding for the field of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine has shown a significant upward trajectory, providing vital support for the rapid advancement of basic and applied research. This growth has played a crucial role in facilitating the high-quality development of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine in China.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical characteristics of elderly patients with sepsis, identify the key factors affecting their clinical outcomes, construct a death risk assessment scale for elderly patients with sepsis, and evaluate its predictive value. METHODS: A retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of sepsis patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from September 2021 to September 2023 were collected, including basic information, clinical characteristics, and clinical outcomes. The patients were divided into non-elderly group (age ≥ 65 years old) and elderly group (age < 65 years old) based on age. Additionally, the elderly patients were divided into survival group and death group based on their 30-day survival status. The clinical characteristics of elderly patients with sepsis were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors for 30-day death in elderly patients with sepsis, and the regression equation was constructed. The regression equation was simplified, and the death risk assessment scale was established. The predictive value of different scores for the prognosis of elderly patients with sepsis was compared. RESULTS: (1) A total of 833 patients with sepsis were finally enrolled, including 485 in the elderly group and 348 in the non-elderly group. Compared with the non-elderly group, the elderly group showed significantly lower counts of lymphocyte, T cell, CD8⁺ T cell, and the ratio of T cells and CD8⁺ T cells [lymphocyte count (×10⁹/L): 0.71 (0.43, 1.06) vs. 0.83 (0.53, 1.26), T cell count (cells/μL): 394.0 (216.0, 648.0) vs. 490.5 (270.5, 793.0), CD8⁺ T cell count (cells/μL): 126.0 (62.0, 223.5) vs. 180.0 (101.0, 312.0), T cell ratio: 0.60 (0.48, 0.70) vs. 0.64 (0.51, 0.75), CD8⁺ T cell ratio: 0.19 (0.13, 0.28) vs. 0.24 (0.16, 0.34), all P < 0.01], higher natural killer cell (NK cell) count, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score, ratio of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) during hospitalization, and 30-day mortality [NK cell count (cells/μL): 112.0 (61.0, 187.5) vs. 95.0 (53.0, 151.0), APACHE II score: 16.00 (12.00, 21.00) vs. 13.00 (8.00, 17.00), IMV ratio: 40.6% (197/485) vs. 31.9% (111/348), 30-day mortality: 28.9% (140/485) vs. 19.5% (68/348), all P < 0.05], and longer length of ICU stay [days: 5.5 (3.0, 10.0) vs. 5.0 (3.0, 8.0), P < 0.05]. There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), and interleukins (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10) between the two groups. (2) In 485 elderly patients with sepsis, 345 survived in 30 days, and 140 died with the 30-day mortality of 28.9%. Compared with the survival group, the patients in the death group were older, and had lower body mass index (BMI), white blood cell count (WBC), PCT, platelet count (PLT) and higher IL-6, IL-10, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), total bilirubin (TBil), blood lactic acid (Lac), and ratio of in-hospital IMV and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that BMI [odds ratio (OR) = 0.783, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.678-0.905, P = 0.001], IL-6 (OR = 1.073, 95%CI was 1.004-1.146, P = 0.036), TBil (OR = 1.009, 95%CI was 1.000-1.018, P = 0.045), Lac (OR = 1.211, 95%CI was 1.072-1.367, P = 0.002), and IMV during hospitalization (OR = 6.181, 95%CI was 2.214-17.256, P = 0.001) were independent risk factors for 30-day death in elderly patients with sepsis, and the regression equation was constructed (Logit P = 1.012-0.244×BMI+0.070×IL-6+0.009×TBil+0.190×Lac+1.822×IMV). The regression equation was simplified to construct a death risk assessment scale, namely BITLI score. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of BITLI score for predicting death risk was 0.852 (95%CI was 0.769-0.935), and it was higher than APACHE II score (AUC = 0.714, 95%CI was 0.623-0.805) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score (AUC = 0.685, 95%CI was 0.578-0.793). The determined cut-off value of BITLI score was 1.50, while achieving a sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 74.0%. CONCLUSIONS Elderly patients with sepsis often have reduced lymphocyte counts, severe conditions, and poor prognosis. BMI, IL-6, TBil, Lac, and IMV during hospitalization were independent risk factors for 30-day death in elderly patients with sepsis. The BITLI score constructed based above risk factors is more precise and reliable than traditional APACHE II and SOFA scores in predicting the outcomes of elderly patients with sepsis.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the implementation effect of hour-1 bundle for sepsis patients based on crisis resource management (CRM) system. METHODS: A historical control study was conducted. The hour-1 bundle for sepsis based on CRM was used to train 24 nurses in the emergency department from October 2022 to March 2023. Clinical data of sepsis patients admitted to the emergency department of the First People's Hospital of Zunyi from April 2022 to September 2023 were collected. The patients were divided into three groups based on different stages of CRM system construction: control group (before construction, from April to September in 2022), improvement group (during construction, from October 2022 to March 2023) and observation group (after construction, from April to September in 2023). The baseline data, implementation rate of hour-1 bundle [including blood culture, antibiotic usage, blood lactic acid (Lac) detection, fluid resuscitation, hypertensors usage], identification and diagnosis time, and prognosis parameters [including correction rate of hypoxemia, intensive care unit (ICU) occupancy rate, and 28-day survival rate]. Sepsis cognition survey and non-technical skill (NTS) evaluation of nurses in emergency department were conducted before and after training. RESULTS: Finally 43 cases were enrolled in the control group, improvement group and observation group, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data including the gender, age, primary site, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, mechanical ventilation ratio among the three groups with comparability. With the gradual improvement of the CRM system, the implementation rate of 1-hour bundle was gradually increased, and the implementation rate in the control group, improvement group and observation group were 65.12% (28/43), 74.42% (32/43) and 88.37% (38/43), respectively, with statistically significant difference (P < 0.05). It was mainly reflected in the completion rate of blood culture, antibiotic usage rate, Lac detection rate and hypertensors usage rate within 1 hour, which were significantly higher in the observation group than those in the control group [completion rate of blood culture: 90.70% (39/43) vs. 62.79% (27/43), antibiotic usage rate: 88.37% (38/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), Lac detection rate: 93.02% (40/43) vs. 72.09% (31/43), hypertensors usage rate: 88.37% (38/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), all P < 0.05]. The fluid resuscitation rates within 1 hour in the three groups were all over 90%, with no statistically significant difference among the three groups. The recognition and diagnosis time in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group and the improvement group (hours: 0.41±0.15 vs. 0.61±0.21, 0.51±0.18, both P < 0.05), the correction rate of hypoxemia and 28-day survival rate were significantly higher than those in the control group [correction rate of hypoxemia: 95.35% (41/43) vs. 74.42% (32/43), 28-day survival rate: 83.72% (36/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), both P < 0.05], and ICU occupancy rate was significantly lower than that in the control group [72.09% (31/43) vs. 93.02% (40/43), P < 0.05]. After training in the CRM system, the score of the sepsis awareness survey questionnaire for emergency department nurses was significantly increased as compared with before training (60.42±5.29 vs. 44.17±9.21, P < 0.01), and NTS also showed significant improvement. CONCLUSION CRM plays a significant role in promoting the implementation of sepsis hour-1 bundle, which can improve the implementation rate of hour-1 bundle and NTS of medical staff, effectively improve patients' hypoxemia, reduce patients' ICU occupancy rate and 28-day risk of death.
