Purpose
The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the 3 types of initial respiratory support (noninvasive positive pressure ventilation vs invasive positive pressure ventilation vs supplemental oxygen only) in hematological patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (ARF).Materials and Methods
This study is a retrospective analysis of a cohort of hematological patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary care hospital between January 1, 2002, and June 30, 2006.Results
One hundred thirty-seven hematological patients were admitted at the ICU with ARF (defined as Pao2/Fio2 <200): within the first 24 hours, 24 and 67 patients received noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and invasive positive pressure ventilation, respectively, and 46 received supplemental oxygen only. Intensive care unit mortality in the 3 patient categories was 71%, 63%, and 32%, respectively (P = .001), and in-hospital mortality was 75%, 80%, and 47%, respectively (P = .001). In multivariate regression analysis, increasing cancer-specific severity-of-illness score upon admission and more organ failure after 24 hours of ICU admission, but not the type of initial respiratory support, were significantly associated with ICU or in-hospital mortality.Conclusions
Intensive care unit and in-hospital mortality in our population of hematological patients with hypoxemic ARF was determined by severity of illness and not by the type of initial respiratory support. 相似文献4.

Introduction
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is responsible for about one-third of intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and is associated with adverse outcomes. Predictors of short- and long-term outcomes in unselected ICU-patients with ARF are ill-defined. The purpose of this analysis was to determine predictors of in-hospital and one-year mortality and assess the effects of oral beta-blockers in unselected ICU patients with ARF included in the BASEL-II-ICU study.Methods
The BASEL II-ICU study was a prospective, multicenter, randomized, single-blinded, controlled trial of 314 (mean age 70 (62 to 79) years) ICU patients with ARF evaluating impact of a B-type natriuretic peptide- (BNP) guided management strategy on short-term outcomes.Results
In-hospital mortality was 16% (51 patients) and one-year mortality 41% (128 patients). Multivariate analysis assessed that oral beta-blockers at admission were associated with a lower risk of both in-hospital (HR 0.33 (0.14 to 0.74) P = 0.007) and one-year mortality (HR 0.29 (0.16 to 0.51) P = 0.0003). Kaplan-Meier analysis confirmed the lower mortality in ARF patients when admitted with oral beta-blocker and further shows that the beneficial effect of oral beta-blockers at admission holds true in the two subgroups of patients with ARF related to cardiac or non-cardiac causes. Kaplan-Meier analysis also shows that administration of oral beta-blockers before hospital discharge gives striking additional beneficial effects on one-year mortality.Conclusions
Established beta-blocker therapy appears to be associated with a reduced mortality in ICU patients with acute respiratory failure. Cessation of established therapy appears to be hazardous. Initiation of therapy prior to discharge appears to confer benefit. This finding was seen regardless of the cardiac or non-cardiac etiology of respiratory failure.Trial registration

Objective
To assess the accuracy of plasma N-terminal-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide concentrations (NT-proBNP) as a diagnostic tool to recognize acute respiratory failure (ARF) of cardiac origin.Methods
Prospective observational study in 100 medical intensive care unit (ICU) patients. NT-proBNP was measured at ICU admission, and diagnosis of cardiac dysfunction was performed using echocardiography.Results
Sixteen patients had cardiac ARF, 58 patients had noncardiac ARF, and 26 patients were non-ARF controls. Median (IQR) NT-proBNP was 1,951 (617–9,320)?pg/ml and was significantly influenced by the level of renal dysfunction. Patients with noncardiac ARF had higher NT-proBNP [1,912 (704–1,922)?pg/ml] than non-ARF patients [1,022 (383–2,613)?pg/ml], but lower concentrations than cardiac ARF patients [4,536 (1,568–35,171)?pg/ml]. The area under the curve (AUC) was 0.663?±?0.078 (95% confidence interval 0.510–0.815) and was not significantly influenced by the level of renal dysfunction. In addition, using a stepwise logistic regression model, NT-proBNP failed to predict independently the presence of cardiac dysfunction. However, with specificity and negative predictive value of 100%, a NT-proBNP cutoff value of 500?pg/ml seemed useful to rule out cardiac dysfunction. Indeed, none of the 16 patients with cardiac ARF had a NT-proBNP value below 500?pg/ml, whereas it was the case in 8 (30.8%) non-ARF controls and in 12 (20.7%) noncardiac ARF patients.Conclusions
In cancer patients with ARF, plasma NT-proBNP concentration is not a relevant tool to recognize cardiac dysfunction, but is specific enough to rule out the diagnosis in patients with plasma NT-proBNP concentrations below 500?pg/ml.6.
Objective
Acute renal failure (ARF) is one of the most common causes of death in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Here, we aimed to investigate the risk factors of ARF in patients with SAP, assess the prognosis of patients with SAP and ARF, and seek potential measures to prevent ARF.Method
A cross-sectional study was performed to analyze the data from patients with SAP. Both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed, including 15 indices such as age, history of renal disease, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores, hypoxemia, abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS), and others. Univariate analysis was also used to compare the prognosis between the groups of patients with SAP with and without ARF.Results
There was a significant difference in age, history of renal disease, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores, hypoxemia, and ACS between the groups with and without ARF. Patients with SAP and ARF had significantly longer average length of stay and intensive care unit length of stay and higher infection rate of the pancreas and mortality rate.Conclusion
The significant risk factors for ARF in patients with SAP include history of renal disease, hypoxemia, and ACS. Measures that can prevent ARF include homeostasis maintenance, adequate perfusion of the kidneys, adequate oxygenation, and abdominal decompression to avoid ACS. 相似文献7.

Introduction
The incidence of vitamin D deficiency in critically ill patients has been reported to range from as low as 17% to as high as 79%. Data regarding the relationship between 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and outcomes in the medical intensive care unit are sparse. The goal of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency in the medical intensive care unit and its relationship with outcomes. 相似文献8.

Purpose
The study aimed to describe the clinical outcome of patients with liver cirrhosis admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) and to compare the performance of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) in predicting mortality.Methods
In this prospective study of patients with cirrhosis admitted to the ICU, demographic data, APACHE II score, SOFA score, presence of acute renal failure (ARF), need for organ support, and mortality were collected.Results
The observed mortality in ICU and at 30 days among 104 patients was 42.3% (95% confidence interval [CI], 32.7%-52.0%) and 56.7% (95% CI, 47.0%-66.4%), respectively. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for first-day APACHE II in predicting 30-day mortality was 0.90 (95% CI, 0.83-0.96) and 0.93 (95% CI, 0.88-0.98) for SOFA score (P = .24). On multivariate analysis, ARF (adjusted odds ratio, 7.7; 95% CI, 1.09-54.64) and mechanical ventilation (adjusted odds ratio, 277.6; 95% CI, 12.83-6004.94) were significantly associated with mortality.Conclusions
Presence of ARF and need for mechanical ventilation are associated with high mortality in patients with liver cirrhosis admitted to the ICU. Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and SOFA are good prognostic models in predicting 30-day mortality and do not differ in performance. 相似文献10.
Introduction
The paucity of data on resource use in critically ill patients with hematological malignancy and on these patients' perceived poor outcome can lead to uncertainty over the extent to which intensive care treatment is appropriate. The aim of the present study was to assess the amount of intensive care resources needed for, and the effect of treatment of, hemato-oncological patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) in comparison with a nononcological patient population with a similar degree of organ dysfunction. 相似文献11.

Background
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread globally and caused a major worldwide health crisis. Patients who are affected more seriously by COVID-19 usually deteriorate rapidly and need further intensive care.Aim
We aimed to assess the performance of the National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2) as a risk stratification tool to discriminate newly admitted patients with COVID-19 at risk of serious events.Design
We conducted a retrospective single-centre case-control study on 200 unselected patients consecutively admitted in March 2020 in a public general hospital in Wuhan, China.Methods
The following serious events were considered: mortality, unplanned intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and non-invasive ventilation treatment. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to quantify the association between outcomes and NEWS2.Results
There were 12 patients (6.0%) who had serious events, where 7 patients (3.5%) experienced unplanned ICU admissions. The area under the ROC curve (AUROC) and cut-off of NEWS2 for the composite outcome were 0.83 and 3, respectively. For patients with NEWS2 ≥ 4, the odds of being at risk for serious events was 16.4 (AUROC = 0.74), while for patients with NEWS2 ≥ 7, the odds of being at risk for serious events was 18.2 (AUROC = 0.71).Conclusions
NEWS2 has an appropriate ability to triage newly admitted patients with COVID-19 into three levels of risk: low risk (NEWS2 = 0-3), medium risk (NEWS2 = 4-6), and high risk (NEWS2 ≥ 7).Relevance to clinical practice
Using NEWS2 may help nurses in early identification of at-risk COVID-19 patients and clinical nursing decision-making. Using NEWS2 to triage new patients with COVID-19 may help nurses provide more appropriate level of care and medical resources allocation for patients safety. 相似文献12.

Introduction
Dental plaque biofilms are colonized by respiratory pathogens in mechanically-ventilated intensive care unit patients. Thus, improvements in oral hygiene in these patients may prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia. The goal of this study was to determine the minimum frequency (once or twice a day) for 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate application necessary to reduce oral colonization by pathogens in 175 intubated patients in a trauma intensive care unit. 相似文献16.
