Diagnosis of metabolic acid-base disturbances in critically ill patients.
We compare two commonly used diagnostic approaches, one relying on plasma bicarbonate concentration and "anion gap," the other on "base excess," with a third method based on physicochemical principles, for their value in detecting complex metabolic acid-base disturbances. We analyzed arterial blood samples from 152 patients and nine normal subjects for pH, PCO(2), and concentrations of plasma e...

متن کاملImmune balance in critically ill patients.
The systemic inflammatory response reflects the non-specific clinical expression of a profound activation of the body's immune responsive elements. Immune activation and immune suppression coexist in the blood of patients with severe sepsis. It is their interaction and the resultant host parenchymal responses that ultimately define the course of sepsis. Importantly, neither profound immune acti...
متن کاملNutritional Assessment in Critically Ill Patients
Background: Malnutrition is an important factor in the survival of critically ill patients. The purpose of the present study was to assess the nutritional status of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) on the days of admission and discharge via a detailed nutritional assessment. Methods: Totally, 125 patients were followed up from admission to discharge at 8ICUs in Shiraz, Iran. The patien...
متن کاملFluid balance and mortality in critically ILL patients
Introduction Intravenous fluids are widely administrated to correct intravascular volume deficit or acute hypovolemia. However, generalized endothelial injury and capillary leak is a common condition in critically ill patients. In such a state, overzealous fluid therapy results in extravascular movement of water, electrolytes and proteins leading to tissue edema and organ dysfunction. The aim o...
