Sevransky: rationale for Vitamin C in sepsis and shock #CCC50#PedsICU
Sevransky: CITRIS-ALI #CCC50#PedsICU 167 patients with Sepsis AND ARDS for < 24 hours.
Sevransky: it did raise Vitamin C levels but didn't modify SOFA or other scores. But interventional group had a lower mortality (not a primary outcome measure of the study though, one of 46 secondary measures) #CCC50#PedsICU Billiard analogy of calling your shot -
Douglas White (UPMC): ICU triaging both on saving most lives and those with longest life expectancy, even based on SOFA scores invariably will bias against patients of color, or lower SES #CCC50#PedsICU
White: 4 strategies for ICU triage that promote equity
White: Arizona as an example, some hospitals were overburdened, others had empty beds. Arizona surgeline addressed this to coordinate and facilitate transfer 5000 patient transfer so they didn't need to triage. #CCC50#PedsICU
