1. Set goals of mean or diastolic blood pressures.
2. Individualize the arterial pressure targets goals.
3. Vasopressors induce an endogenous fluid recruitment and may limit positive fluid balance.
4. Reassess fluid status and cardiac output after initiation of vasopressors

🧵We often refer our patients for "neuropsychological" testing but what exactly is it, do you need it, and how does it add value? A thread. 1/10 @CIBScenter
Neuropsychological testing - also known as cognitive testing - aims to provide a comprehensive look at key areas of your cognitive functioning - aspects of your memory, attention, processing speed, executive functioning and more. It is a "deep dive." 2/10
Neuropsychological testing contrasts with cognitive screening (CS). Often 5 or 10 or so minutes in length. CS has a valuable place and a role to play but it provides a brief glimpse, has limitations especially in mild cases, and is not diagnostic. @CIBScenter 3/10
So this has been making the rounds. I realize it’s probably meant to be a thought experiment & deliberately provocative, but still, philosophical arguments should be rooted in at least some amount of reality.
I will now rage tweet about everything wrong w/ this concept. Enjoy🧵

Let’s start w/ the author’s premise: if we’re ok w/ #organdonation after brain death, then we should be ok w/ “whole body gestational donation” (WBGD).
Even putting aside the part about this sounding like a horrifying, dystopian baby farm, they’re not even remotely comparable.
Even putting aside the part about this sounding like a horrifying, dystopian baby farm, they’re not even remotely comparable.
Here’s why:
#Organdonation after brain death typically happens very quickly (a few days or less). This is not simply because we’re uncomfortable keeping someone’s organs alive longer; it’s because it’s incredibly challenging & often not possible, despite the authors assertions

🧵We've been leading support groups for #ICU survivors for nearly 10 years (over 2 years with #LongCovid patients). Across literally thousands of patient encounters, what have we learned? I'll unpack these insights in tweets to follow. Thanks for reading them. @CIBScenter 1/10
To begin, the ROI for support groups is enormous- they require minimal expenses, utilize few resources, allow you to touch the lives of sometimes dozens of people at the same time, and contribute to changed lives. An inexpensive way to make a big impact. 2/10
They require competent leaders who understand group processes. You can find such people or you can become one but make sure that for at least one group leader, this is not their "first rodeo." We don't all have to be experts but we owe members that much. 3/10
PTSD is a common phenomenon in ICU survivors, impacting literally millions of people around the world, every year. What do we know about it? A 🧵 1/5
In the late 1990s, research on #PTSD after the #ICU first emerged, with early studies suggesting prevalence rates of 40 to 50 percent, far higher than in combat veterans and other high risk groups. Studies since then have documented rates of 10% to 20% - clearly a problem. 2/5
Risk factors for PTSD in ICU survivors vary but include female sex, young age, a history of delirium, and a history of psychiatric illness. The presence of delusional memories also plays a role. @CIBScenter 3/5

"Every Canadian needs access to a family doctor. Governments need to step up and commit to doing what’s right for the system, instead of focusing on Band-Aid solutions."
"We need a true understanding that the best patient care is care in the community, and that in part, hospitalization for preventable illness is a failure."

Is direct discharge to home (DDH) from ICUs safe?
1. Patients are usually transferred to hospital wards from the ICUs and discharged to home after another few days. However, there could be delay in getting a ward bed or patient might have significantly recovered while in ICU.
1. Patients are usually transferred to hospital wards from the ICUs and discharged to home after another few days. However, there could be delay in getting a ward bed or patient might have significantly recovered while in ICU.
2. Moreover, some families find it difficult to afford longer duration ICU (& hospital stay) costs. This necessitates direct discharge to home (DDH) in some patients. In a recent study, the safety of DDH was evaluated and compared to those who were transferred to wards from ICUs.
3. For DDH from ICU, compared with ward transfers, there was no difference in the risk of-
*Emergency department visits at 30-days (22.4% vs 22.7%);
*Hospital readmissions at 30-days (9.8% vs 9.6%); or
*90-day mortality (2.8% vs 2.6%).

A thread discussing the basics of our PA Cath:
#MedTwitter #FOAMed #ICU
The PA Cath is a specialized venous catheter that can give us a whole host of values related to cardiac function, hemodynamics, and perfusion. 🧐
This cath is a long balloon tipped cath that enters the venous system. It is passed into the RA, through the tricuspid valve, into the RV, and then finally through the pulmonic valve with the tip resting in the pulmonary artery (PA). 🫀

2. In a recent study, LEV was found to be inferior for times to treatment failure, 2-year remission from seizures, and first subsequent seizure. In addition, LEV was not found to be a cost-effective alternative.
3. This is despite the fact the LEV is associated with a higher incidence of #psychiatric and #behavioral adverse effects.

1. Talk to the patient, no matter their mental status. You should introduce yourself & announce what you’re doing during a physical exam. Sometimes we forget that there’s a loved one surrounded by all those machines & forget to act the same way we would if they were awake. Don’t.
2. Mental status: If they’re relatively responsive this one is much easier. If they’re not, this one is tough.
Assess sedation level. RASS is a commonly used descriptor. Most patients (not all) should be +1 to -1. If they’re -5 and on max sedation, you should explore that.

1. If you can get at least some of this information automated for a printout, that can be invaluable. Whether that’s an updateable .dotphrase or a printable page from EPIC/Cerner etc. — save the carpal tunnel for later and just make notes on the data!
2. Start with a page that allows you to trend vitals. Particularly helpful is one with vitals and vasoactive gtts :
Is the MAP the same all night but the levo is down OR struggle to get a MAP >65 & escalate to a second pressor?
The #’s are important, but the TREND is essential.

1⃣ Can MAPSE redefine "the hyperdynamic heart?
The term "hyperdynamic LV" - EF > 55% - is misleading. It has no relation to a hyperdyanmic circulation; SV/CO. Someone bleeding to death has a hyperdynamic heart, but the circulation is life-threatening hypodynamic.

MAPSE is cardiac motion, and defining the hyperDYNAMIC heart as good cardiac motion makes perfect sense. Recent geometrical analysis of cardiac pumping shows that MAPSE is the main determinant of SV. Fig from @mugander: tinyurl.com/mxbfmcyk

A good thread with thoughtful discussion of the idea of anesthesiology "backing up" other departments (e.g. ICU, ED) in their own efforts to manage airways. Knotty issues, but a few general observations (🧵)...
#medtwitter #FOAMcc #icu
#medtwitter #FOAMcc #icu
1. In almost all cases, anesthesiology will be the most-experienced, most-trained people to manage an airway.
2. Out-of-OR airways almost always have relatively high risk of complications.
3. Some centers interpret #1 and #2 as meaning anesthesia should handle ALL airways.

4. However, other departments ARE trained to do this, and whether they routinely do depends heavily on the institution and its culture.
5. It is *not* always true that the *most* trained person should do everything; a hierarchy with appropriate "calls for help" is commonly used

In 2009 I was involved in an Intensive Care Unit adverse event where our ICU team #failed in its goal and a person died as a result. This set me on a path to thinking about how to respond to these traumatic experiences and how to prevent them at a professional and personal level.
I was given an opportunity to explore this by @theMJA with "A personal reflection on staff experiences after critical incidents."
