Evaluation of the Early Use of Norepinephrine in Major Abdominal Surgery on Postoperative Organ Dysfunction
Hemodynamic instability is frequent during surgery and intraoperative hypotension is associated with excess morbidity and excess mortality in high-risk patients. In major abdominal surgery the incidence of intraoperative hypotension remains high. For the past few years, some teams have proposed evaluating norepinephrine as a first-line drug in the presence of …
Comparing Fluid Responsiveness Assessment Methods in Patients With Impaired Consciousness
Hypotension is a significant precursor to unfavorable clinical outcomes. To determine whether infusion therapy can positively impact the management of hypotension, several evaluative tests can be utilized. These include assessing the collapsibility and distensibility indices of the inferior vena cava, conducting a passive leg raising (PLR) test, and performing a …
Feasibility of Using the "CGM GUARDIAN 2" Interstitial Fluid Glucose Measurement System in Intensive Care Medicine
Glycemic imbalances are very common in shock patients admitted to intensive care units. A blood glucose control every 2 hours is routinely performed in patients requiring insulin therapy. In practice, we use a protocol and management software called "CPG" (Personalized Control of Blood Glucose). This involves taking capillary samples from …
TSCS for Acute SCI
This project will focus on a novel approach to stabilizing blood pressure (BP) during inpatient rehabilitation after acute SCI. After SCI, people have unstable blood pressure, ranging from too low (orthostatic hypotension) to too high (autonomic dysreflexia). Unstable BP often interferes with performing effective physical rehabilitation after SCI. A critical …
Hydrocortisone Therapy Optimization During Hypothermia Treatment in Asphyxiated Neonates
This is a prospective, single center, pharmacokinetic study of intravenous hydrocortisone therapy for systemic low blood pressure during hypothermia treatment in asphyxiated newborns. Patients will be allocated to hydrocortisone supplementation while receiving conventional inotropic therapy as needed. The hypothesis is that a detailed study of hydrocortisone pharmacokinetics during therapeutic hypothermia …
Blood Pressure Slopes and Ultrafiltration in Hemodialysis Patients
Kidney failure has been recognized as one of the most costly chronic conditions among United States Veterans. Approximately 13,000 Veterans develop kidney failure each year, and most require hemodialysis initiation. Hemodialysis patients suffer significantly increased risk of death and hospitalizations, and excessive body fluid is a major cause of this. …
Restrictive Versus Liberal Rate of Extracorporeal Volume Removal Evaluation in Acute Kidney Injury
Critically ill patients with acute kidney injury and fluid overload who are frequently treated by fluid removal during dialysis are at an increased risk of complications and death. Both slower and faster rates of fluid removal may cause injury to the vital organs. This proposed clinical trial will examine the …
PRT Versus CBT on Chronic Non Specific LBP
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare between the effect of positional release technique and cognitive behavioral therapy in patients with chronic non specific low back pain. The main question aims to answer :Is there any differences of using positional release techniques versus cognitive behavioral therapy on patients …
Hypercapnia in Orthostatic Hypotension
The Autonomic (or "automatic") Nervous System (ANS) regulates internal processes, including control of heart rate and blood pressure (BP). When someone stands, and gravity tries to pull blood away from the brain, the ANS works to maintain BP and brain blood flow. Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (NOH) occurs when our "fight-or-flight" …
The Effect of Transcutaneous Stimulation on Blood Pressure in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI)
This project will investigate the effect of spinal cord transcutaneous stimulation on blood pressure in individuals with a chronic spinal cord injury who experience blood pressure instability, specifically, orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when moving from lying flat on your back to an upright position). The main questions …
