Intensive-care-unit-acquired muscle weakness.
Neuromuscular abnormalities culminating in skeletal-muscle weakness occur very commonly in critically ill patients. Intensive-care-unit (ICU) acquired neuromuscular abnormalities are typically divided into 2 discrete classes: polyneuropathy and myopathy. However, it is likely that these 2 entities commonly coexist, with myopathy being the most common cause of weakness. Major risk factors for IC...
متن کاملClinical review: intensive care unit acquired weakness.
A substantial number of patients admitted to the ICU because of an acute illness, complicated surgery, severe trauma, or burn injury will develop a de novo form of muscle weakness during the ICU stay that is referred to as "intensive care unit acquired weakness" (ICUAW). This ICUAW evoked by critical illness can be due to axonal neuropathy, primary myopathy, or both. Underlying pathophysiologic...
متن کاملPathophysiology of intensive care unit-acquired anemia
The formation of red blood cells (RBCs) in the bone marrow is regulated by erythropoietin in response to a cascade of events. Anemia in the intensive care unit can be caused by a host of factors. Patients in the intensive care unit may have decreased RBC production and a blunted response to erythropoietin. Administration of recombinant human erythropoietin may stimulate erythropoiesis, increase...
متن کاملIntensive care unit acquired muscle weakness: when should we consider rehabilitation?
Muscle weakness is highly prevalent during acute critical illness, with the poor exercise performance that occurs after critical illness being recognized as a consequence of skeletal muscles weakness. Advanced techniques to measure peripheral muscle strength are available, but they have limited use in the clinical setting. Simple volitional methods to assess strength are limited because they re...
متن کاملAcquired liver injury in the intensive care unit.
T HE liver plays a key role in the synthesis of proteins, metabolism of toxins and drugs, and in modulation of immunity. In critically ill patients, hypoxic, toxic, and inflammatory insults can affect hepatic excretory, synthetic, and/or purification functions, leading to systemic complications such as coagulopathy, increased risk of infection, hypoglycemia, and acute kidney injury. In severe c...
