The monitoring of peripheral circulation, as indicated by the capillary refill time, is a sensitive and accurate method of assessing the microcirculatory status of the body. It is a widely used tool for the evaluation of critically ill patients, the guidance of therapeutic interventions, and the assessment of prognosis. In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on microcirculation monitoring which has led to an increased focus on capillary refill time.

: Impaired systemic tissue oxygenation and microvascular perfusion are associated with adverse outcomes in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Tissue oxygenation and microvascular reactivity, assessed by using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), are correlated with disease severity in critically ill populations. This study aimed to detect alterations in these factors and their ability to predict outcomes in patients with ARDS.

Background: Angina with no obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA) occurs in approximately 40 % of patients who undergo diagnostic coronary angiography for symptoms of angina. Coronary physiology assessment (CPA) is a guideline proven method to assess and diagnose these patients for an effective treatment strategy. There is currently no data regarding optimal wire or sensor position for CPA using bolus coronary thermodilution.

Background: Angina with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA) is commonly observed in patients with stable angina undergoing coronary angiography. Current guidelines recommend non-invasive stress testing as the first step in diagnosing coronary microvascular disease (CMD). This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of non-invasive stress testing in patients invasively diagnosed with CMD.
