Abstract

Blood gas analysis (BGA) and PA oximetry catheters (PAOC) used to determine mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) are based on fundamentally different technologies and thus they often produce discrepant values [1]. Directly measured SvO2 by the PAOC is the criterion standard against which calculation of SvO2 from PvO2 by BGA is judged.

Summary

Introduction

Very often, even with a nonrebreathing mask (NRM), high oxygen delivery to patient with the existent materials is insufficient. There is evidence that increasing the dose of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is associated with improved survival in critically ill patients with acute renal failure (ARF) [1]. The aim of this study is to investigate if there is any difference in patients’ characteristics in ICU between COPD and nonCOPD diseases caused chronic respiratory failure and require mechanical ventilation during acute exacerbations. Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) has been reported to be beneficial in the treatment of acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and to facilitate weaning In this trial we assessed the possible benefit of early NPPV in patients with blunt chest trauma and acute respiratory failure. The aim of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters and the clinical efficacy of a continuous infusion of cefepime versus an intermittent regimen in critically ill adults patients with gram negative bacilli infection. The purpose of the study is to identify the factors associated with DNR status in our institution
