Respiratory Subsets in Patients with Moderate to Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome for Early Prediction of Death.

Introduction: In patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the PaO2/FiO2 ratio at the time of ARDS diagnosis is weakly associated with mortality. We hypothesized that setting a PaO2/FiO2 threshold in 150 mm Hg at 24 h from moderate/severe ARDS diagnosis would improve predictions of death in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: We conducted an ancillary study in 1303 patients with moderate to severe ARDS managed with lung-protective ventilation enrolled consecutively in four prospective multicenter cohorts in a network of ICUs.

The PANDORA Study: Prevalence and Outcome of Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure in the Pre-COVID-19 Era.

Objectives: To establish the epidemiological characteristics, ventilator management, and outcomes in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), with or without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), in the era of lung-protective mechanical ventilation (MV).

Design: A 6-month prospective, epidemiological, observational study.

Setting: A network of 22 multidisciplinary ICUs in Spain.

Associated risk factors and outcomes of acute kidney injury in severe trauma: Results from the Spanish trauma ICU registry (RETRAUCI).

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) constitutes a common complication after severe trauma. Our objective was to analyse the associated risk factors and outcomes of AKI in a large, multicentre sample of trauma ICU patients.

Materials And Methods: Observational, prospective and multicentre nationwide registry (RETRAUCI).

Age-related injury patterns in Spanish trauma ICU patients. Results from the RETRAUCI.

Background: Injury patterns may differ in trauma patients when age is considered. This information is relevant in the management of trauma patients and for planning preventive measures.

Methods: We included in the study all patients admitted for traumatic disease in the participating ICUs from November 23, 2012 to July 31, 2015 with complete records.

Mortality prediction using TRISS methodology in the Spanish ICU Trauma Registry (RETRAUCI).

Objectives: To validate Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) methodology as an auditing tool in the Spanish ICU Trauma Registry (RETRAUCI).

Design: A prospective, multicenter registry evaluation was carried out.

Setting: Thirteen Spanish Intensive Care Units (ICUs).
