Fluid resuscitation should respect the endothelial glycocalyx layer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Endothelial glycocalyx degradation induced by fluid overload adds to the concern of a detrimental effect of uncontrolled fluid resuscitation and the risk of unnecessary fluid infusion. As a consequence, the use of new tools for monitoring response to fluids appears promising. From that perspective, the monitoring of plasma concentration of glycocalyx degradation markers could be useful.

Revised Starling equation and the glycocalyx model of transvascular fluid exchange: an improved paradigm for prescribing intravenous fluid therapy.
I.V. fluid therapy does not result in the extracellular volume distribution expected from Starling's original model of semi-permeable capillaries subject to hydrostatic and oncotic pressure gradients within the extracellular fluid. Fluid therapy to support the circulation relies on applying a physiological paradigm that better explains clinical and research observations. The revised Starling eq...
متن کاملThe endothelial glycocalyx and its disruption, protection and regeneration: a narrative review.
The glycocalyx is a carbohydrate-rich layer that lines the luminal side of the vascular endothelium. Its soluble components exist in a dynamic equilibrium with the bloodstream and play an important role in maintaining endothelial layer integrity. However, the glycocalyx can be easily damaged and is extremely vulnerable to insults from a variety of sources, including inflammation, trauma, haemor...

BACKGROUND Fluid resuscitation remains a cornerstone in the management of acute bleeding. According to Starling's "Three-compartment model", four-times more crystalloids have the same volume effect as colloids. However, this volume-replacement ratio remains a controversial issue as it may be affected by the degradation of the endothelial glycocalyx layer, a situation often found in the critical...

Anesthesiologists, it seems, will never agree on the optimal fluid resuscitation protocols for critically ill patients. The “Great Fluid Debate” is the anesthesiology equivalent of fashion in the art world—lots of opinions, with historical cyclic swings about what is “in.” Competing fluid resuscitation strategies will always be points for discussion and disagreement, unfortunately. Getting an a...

Background The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between fluid resuscitation and glycocalyx degradation in severe sepsis. Methodology 15 post-thoracotomy patients with severe sepsis and 11 patients in recovery after open chest surgery (controls) were enrolled. Results Plasma syndecan-1 concentrations were significantly higher in the sepsis group than that in control group,...
