Fluid Management in Critical Care: New Insights Into Optimal Fluid Therapy.
Cureus
December 2024
Critical Care Medicine, Star Care Multispeciality Hospital, Kozhikode, IND.
Background: Fluid management is a crucial critical care component, influencing outcomes such as organ function, renal integrity, and survival in critically ill patients. Recent evidence suggests that balanced crystalloids may offer advantages over isotonic saline, particularly in reducing the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) and other complications. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of balanced crystalloids versus isotonic saline on clinical outcomes in the intensive care unit (ICU), focusing on AKI, renal replacement therapy (RRT), and mortality.

Acute Medicine, Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust, Portsmouth, GBR.
Cardiology, a high-acuity medical specialty, has traditionally emphasised technical expertise, often overshadowing the critical role of non-technical skills (NTS). This imbalance stems from the historical focus on procedural competence and clinical knowledge in cardiology training and practice, leaving a significant gap in the development of crucial interpersonal and cognitive abilities. However, emerging evidence highlights the significant impact of NTS on patient outcomes, team dynamics, and overall healthcare efficiency.

Clinical Research Centre, Hospital Pulau Pinang, Georgetown, Malaysia; Ministry of Health, Putrajaya, Malaysia.
Background: The prevalence of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant pathogens has led to increased reliance on broad-spectrum antimicrobials, such as tigecycline. This medicine is commonly used to treat complicated skin and intraabdominal infections as well as community-acquired pneumonia. However, the increasing use of tigecycline has been linked to serious complications, including acute pancreatitis.

Methods: Our study was a retrospective analysis of adult patients hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of ALL or AML, using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database for 2020.
Trial of Oxygen Delivery on Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Major Clinical Outcomes.
Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep
December 2024
Harrington Heart and Vascular Institute, University Hospital - Cleveland/Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio.
Background: Low oxygen delivery (DO2) on cardiopulmonary bypass has been associated with acute kidney injury. We sought to determine the association of intraoperative DO2, postoperative length of stay, and major postoperative events.
Methods: DO2 values were calculated in 845 patients after initiation, and every 30 minutes on bypass.
