On-line plasma lactate concentration monitoring in critically ill patients
Blood lactate concentration (BLC) is widely used to guide resuscitation in critically ill patients [1]. Muscular microdialysis has previously been used illustrate the importance of the Na/K pump in hyperlactatemia in septic shock patients [2], with BLC reflecting metabolic changes rather than oxygen debt [3]. Microdialysis has now also been applied to intravascular continuous monitoring [4] (Ei...

متن کاملAssociation of serum chloride concentration with outcomes in postoperative critically ill patients: a retrospective observational study
BACKGROUND Although chloride is one of the major electrolytes measured routinely in dairy practice, the amount of attention chloride receives in critically ill patients is limited. There are still a few studies reporting the incidence of derangements of chloride and its association with patients' outcomes. Accordingly, we conducted a retrospective study to assess the prevalence of abnormality o...
متن کاملSerum cystatin C concentration as a marker of acute renal dysfunction in critically ill patients
INTRODUCTION In critically ill patients sudden changes in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) are not instantly followed by parallel changes in serum creatinine. The aim of the present study was to analyze the utility of serum cystatin C as a marker of renal function in these patients. METHODS Serum creatinine, serum cystatin C and 24-hour creatinine clearance (CCr) were determined in 50 critica...
