Mitochondrial dysfunction in a long-term rodent model of sepsis and organ failure.
Although sepsis is the major cause of mortality and morbidity in the critically ill, precise mechanism(s) causing multiorgan dysfunction remain unclear. Findings of impaired oxygen utilization in septic patients and animals implicate nitric oxide-mediated inhibition of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. We recently reported a relationship between skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction, cli...
متن کاملThe role of mitochondrial dysfunction in sepsis-induced multi-organ failure
An important role for bioenergetic dysfunction is increasingly emerging to potentially explain the paradox of clinical and biochemical organ failure in sepsis yet minimal cell death, maintained tissue oxygenation and recovery in survivors. Associations are well-recognized between the degree of mitochondrial dysfunction and outcomes. While this does not confirm cause-and-effect, it does neverthe...
متن کاملEpidemiology of sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome in children.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To determine the cumulated incidence and the density of incidence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, severe sepsis, septic shock, and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in critically ill children; to distinguish patients with primary from those with secondary MODS.

متن کاملThe evolution and therapy aspects in multiple organ dysfunction sepsis
Background Severe sepsis was the subject of intense debate over the years, and in the last twenty years there has been a constant effort to identify therapies that reduce mortality. Although the inflammatory response is often adapted to the etiologic agent and to the increase of the mediators in association with organ dysfunction, it is not currently possible to rapidly assess the patients’ abi...
متن کاملMetabolic support in sepsis and multiple organ failure.
The metabolic support of critically ill patients is a relatively new topic of active research and discussion, and surprisingly little is known about the effects of critical illness on metabolic physiology and activity. The metabolic changes seen in critical illness are highly complex, and how and when to treat them are only just beginning to be determined. Studies have demonstrated that the acu...
