- Evaluation of hemodynamic effects of xenon in dogs undergoing hemorrhagic shock(2013) FRANCESCHI, Ruben C.; MALBOUISSON, Luiz; YOSHINAGA, Eduardo; AULER JR., Jose Otavio Costa; FIGUEIREDO, Luiz Francisco Poli de; CARMONA, Maria Jose C.OBJECTIVES: The anesthetic gas xenon is reported to preserve hemodynamic stability during general anesthesia. However, the effects of the gas during shock are unclear. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Xe on hemodynamic stability and tissue perfusion in a canine model of hemorrhagic shock. METHOD: Twenty-six dogs, mechanically ventilated with a fraction of inspired oxygen of 21% and anesthetized with etomidate and vecuronium, were randomized into Xenon (Xe; n = 13) or Control (C; n = 13) groups. Following hemodynamic monitoring, a pressure-driven shock was induced to reach an arterial pressure of 40 mmHg. Hemodynamic data and blood samples were collected prior to bleeding, immediately after bleeding and 5, 20 and 40 minutes following shock. The Xe group was treated with 79% Xe diluted in ambient air, inhaled for 20 minutes after shock. RESULT: The mean bleeding volume was 44 mL.kg(-1) in the C group and 40 mL.kg(-1) in the Xe group. Hemorrhage promoted a decrease in both the cardiac index (p<0.001) and mean arterial pressure (p<0.001). These changes were associated with an increase in lactate levels and worsening of oxygen transport variables in both groups (p<0.05). Inhalation of xenon did not cause further worsening of hemodynamics or tissue perfusion markers. CONCLUSIONS: Xenon did not alter hemodynamic stability or tissue perfusion in an experimentally controlled hemorrhagic shock model. However, further studies are necessary to validate this drug in other contexts.
- Periodontopathogenic bacteria in subglottic samples from patients undergoing elective intubation for general anesthesia: A pilot study(2021) MORILLO, Carlos M. R.; SARAIVA, Luciana; ROMITO, Giuseppe A.; PANNUTI, Claudio Mendes; OLIVEIRA, Heleno P.; PERES, Maria Paula S. M.; CARMONA, Maria Jose C.; VILLAR, Cristina C.Background Translocation of periodontal pathogens into the respiratory tract could either cause pneumonia or disrupt local defense mechanisms, predisposing the host to infection by respiratory pathogens. The objective of this pilot study was to evaluate the levels of periodontopathogenic bacteria in subglottic samples of intubated and mechanically ventilated patients and the impact of oral decontamination with chlorhexidine (CHX) on subglottic levels of these microorganisms. Methods Patients scheduled to undergo elective surgical procedures requiring endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation for at least 3 hours were included. Following full-mouth periodontal examination, patients were randomly assigned to groups that rinsed preoperatively with 0.12% CHX or 0.9% saline (control). After 3 hours of orotracheal intubation, subglottic contents were collected. Quantification of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (A. actinomycetemcomitans), Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), and Tannerella forsythia (T. forsythia) in subglottic samples was determined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Data were analyzed by Fisher Exact Probability, unpaired Student's t and Mann-Whitney tests. Results Of the 69 patients included, 43 completed study participation. There were no differences between control and CHX groups in subglottic detection rates and abundance levels of P. gingivalis (P = 0.59), T. forsythia (P = 0.83) and A. actinomycetemcomitans (P = 0.07). Moreover, our data indicate that periodontal health has no impact on subglottic levels of P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and A. actinomycetemcomitans. Conclusions Periodontal pathogens were detected in subglottic samples of intubated and mechanically ventilated patients. Moreover, a single CHX rinse prior to endotracheal intubation may have no effect on subglottic contamination by P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, and A. actinomycetemcomitans.
article 10 Citação(ões) na Scopus Use of a Minimally Invasive Uncalibrated Cardiac Output Monitor in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section under Spinal Anesthesia: Report of Four Cases(2011) BLIACHERIENE, Fernando; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; BARRETTI, Cristina de Freitas Madeira; HADDAD, Cristiane Maria Federicci; MOUCHALWAT, Elaine Soubhi; BORTOLOTTO, Maria Rita de Figueiredo Lemos; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; ZUGAIB, MarceloBliacheriene F, Carmona MJC, Barretti CFM, Haddad CMF, Mouchalwat ES, Bortlotto MRFL, Francisco RPV, Zugaib M - Use of a Minimally Invasive Uncalibrated Cardiac Output Monitor in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section under Spinal Anesthesia: Report of Four Cases. Background and Objectives: Hemodynamic changes are observed during cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. Non-invasive blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) measurements are performed to diagnose these changes, but they are delayed and inaccurate. Other monitors such as filling pressure and cardiac output (CO) catheters with external calibration are very invasive or inaccurate. The objective of the present study was to report the cardiac output measurements obtained with a minimally invasive uncalibrated monitor (LiDCO rapid) in patients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. Case report: After approval by the Ethics Commission, four patients agreed to participate in this study. They underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia while at the same time being connected to the LiDCO rapid by a radial artery line. Cardiac output, HR, and BP were recorded at baseline, after spinal anesthesia, after fetal and placental extraction, and after the infusion of oxytocin and metaraminol. We observed a fall in BP with an increase of HR and CO after spinal anesthesia and oxytocin infusion; and an increase in BP with a fall in HR and CO after bolus of the vasopressor. Conclusions: Although this monitor had not been calibrated, it showed a tendency for consistent hemodynamic data in obstetric patients and it may be used as a therapeutic guide or experimental tool.- A pragmatic multi-center trial of goal-directed fluid management based on pulse pressure variation monitoring during high-risk surgery(2017) MALBOUISSON, Luiz Marcelo Sa; SILVA JR., Joao Manoel; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; LOPES, Marcel Rezende; ASSUNCAO, Murilo Santucci; VALIATTI, Jorge Luis dos Santos; SIMOES, Claudia Marques; AULER JR., Jose Otavio CostaBackground: Intraoperative fluid therapy guided by mechanical ventilation-induced pulse-pressure variation (PPV) may improve outcomes after major surgery. We tested this hypothesis in a multi-center study. Methods: The patients were included in two periods: a first control period (control group; n = 147) in which intraoperative fluids were given according to clinical judgment. After a training period, intraoperative fluid management was titrated to maintain PPV < 10% in 109 surgical patients (PPV group). We performed 1:1 propensity score matching to ensure the groups were comparable with regard to age, weight, duration of surgery, and type of operation. The primary endpoint was postoperative hospital length of stay. Results: After matching, 84 patients remained in each group. Baseline characteristics, surgical procedure duration and physiological parameters evaluated at the start of surgery were similar between the groups. The volume of crystalloids (4500 mL [3200-6500 mL] versus 5000 mL [3750-8862 mL]; P = 0.01), the number of blood units infused during the surgery (1.7 U [0.9-2.0 U] versus 2.0 U [1.7-2.6 U]; P = 0.01), the fraction of patients transfused (13.1% versus 32.1%; P = 0.003) and the number of patients receiving mechanical ventilation at 24 h (3.2% versus 9.7%; P = 0.027) were smaller postoperatively in PPV group. Intraoperative PPV-based improved the composite outcome of postoperative complications OR 0.59 [95% CI 0.35-0.99] and reduced the postoperative hospital length of stay (8 days [6-14 days] versus 11 days [7-18 days]; P = 0.01). Conclusions: In high-risk surgeries, PPV-directed volume loading improved postoperative outcomes and decreased the postoperative hospital length of stay.
- Assessment of a digital game as a neuropsychological test for postoperative cognitive dysfunction(2022) LUCATELLI, André; GOULART, Ananaira Alves; SILVEIRA, Paulo Sergio Panse; SIQUEIRA, José de Oliveira; CARMONA, Maria José Carvalho; PEREIRA, Valéria Fontenelle Angelim; VALENTIN, Livia Stocco Sanches; VIEIRA, Joaquim EdsonAbstract Objective: Postoperative cognitive dysfunction may result from worsening in a condition of previous impairment. It causes greater difficulty in recovery, longer hospital stays, and consequent delay in returning to work activities. Digital games have a potential neuromodulatory and rehabilitation effect. In this study, a digital game was used as a neuropsychological test to assess postoperative cognitive dysfunction, with preoperative patient performance as control. Methods: It was a non-controlled study, with patients selected among candidates for elective non-cardiac surgery, evaluated in the preand postoperative periods. The digital game used has six phases developed to evaluate selective attention, alternating attention, visuoperception, inhibitory control, short-term memory, and long-term memory. The digital game takes about 25 minutes. Scores are the sum of correct answers in each cognitive domain. Statistical analysis compared these cognitive functions preand post-surgery using a generalized linear mixed model (ANCOVA). Results: Sixty patients were evaluated, 40% male and 60% female, with a mean age of 52.7 ± 13.5 years. Except for visuoperception, a reduction in post-surgery scores was found in all phases of the digital game. Conclusion: The digital game was able to detect decline in several cognitive functions postoperatively. As its completion is faster than in conventional tests on paper, this digital game may be a potentially recommended tool for assessing patients, especially the elderly and in the early postoperative period.
- Emergence delirium in children: a Brazilian survey(2022) QUINTÃO, Vinícius Caldeira; SALES, Charlize Kessin de Oliveira; HERRERA, Estefania Morales; ELLERKMANN, Richard K; ROSEN, H. David; CARMONA, Maria José CarvalhoAbstract Background: Pediatric emergence delirium is characterized by a disturbance of a child’s awareness during the early postoperative period that manifests as disorientation, altered attention and perception. The incidence of emergence delirium varies between 18% and 80% depending on risk factors and how it is measured. Reports from Canada, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, and France demonstrated a wide range of preventive measures and definitions, indicating that there is a lack of clarity regarding emergence delirium. We aimed to assess the practices and beliefs among Brazilian anesthesiologists regarding emergence delirium. Methods: A web-based survey was developed using REDCap®. A link and QR Code were sent by email to all Brazilian anesthesiologists associated with the Brazilian Society of Anesthesiology (SBA). Results: We collected 671 completed questionnaires. The majority of respondents (97%) considered emergence delirium a relevant adverse event. Thirty-two percent of respondents reported routinely administrating medication to prevent emergence delirium, with clonidine (16%) and propofol (15%) being the most commonly prescribed medications. More than 70% of respondents reported a high level of patient and parent anxiety, a previous history of emergence delirium, and untreated pain as risk factors for emergence delirium. Regarding treatment, thirty-five percent of respondents reported using propofol, followed by midazolam (26%). Conclusion: Although most respondents considered emergence delirium a relevant adverse event, only one-third of them routinely applied preventive measures. Clonidine and propofol were the first choices for pharmacological prevention. For treatment, propofol and midazolam were the most commonly prescribed medications.
- Referral to immediate postoperative care in an intensive care unit from the perspective of anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensive care physicians: a cross-sectional questionnaire(2021) SILVA JR., Joao Manoel; KATAYAMA, Henrique Tadashi; LOPES, Felipe Manuel Vasconcellos; TOLEDO, Diogo Oliveira; AMENDOLA, Cristina Prata; OLIVEIRA, Fernanda dos Santos; ANDRAUS, Leusi Magda Romano; CARMONA, Maria Jose C.; LOBO, Suzana Margareth; MALBOUISSON, Luiz Marcelo SaIntroduction and objective: Due to the high cost and insufficient offer, the request for Intensive Care (ICU) beds for postoperative recovery needs adequate criteria. Therefore, we studied the characteristics of patients referred to postoperative care at an ICU from the perspective of anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensive care physicians. Methods: A questionnaire on referrals to postoperative intensive care was applied to physicians at congresses in Brazil. Anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensive care physicians who agreed to fill out the questionnaire were included. The questionnaire consisted of hypothetical clinical scenarios and cases for participants to choose which would be the priority for referral to the ICU. Results: 360 physicians participated in the study, with median time of 10 (5-18) years after graduation. Of the interviewees, 36.4% were anesthesiologists, 30.0% surgeons, and 33.6% intensive care physicians. We found that anesthesiologists were more conservative, and surgeons less & nbsp;conservative in ICU referrals. As to patients with risk of bleeding, 75.0% of the surgeons would refer them to the ICU, in contrast with 52.1% of the intensive care physicians, and 43.5% of the anesthesiologists (p < 0.001). As to elderly persons with limited reserve, 62.0% of the surgeons would refer them to the ICU, in contrast with 47.1% of the intensive care physicians, and 22.1% of the anesthesiologists (p < 0.001). As to patients with risk of respiratory complications, 64.5% of the surgeons would recommend the ICU, versus 43.0% of the intensive care physicians, and 32.1% of the anesthesiologists (p < 0.001). Intensive care physicians classified priorities better in indicating ICU, and the main risk indicator was the ASA physical status in all specialties (p < 0.001). There was no agreement among the specialties and surgeries on prioritizing post-operative intensive care. Conclusion: Anesthesiologists, surgeons, and intensive care physicians presented different per-spectives on postoperative referral to the ICU. (c) 2021 Sociedade Brasileira de Anestesiologia.
- The effect of prior tetanic stimulation on train-of-four monitoring in paediatric patients A randomised open-label controlled trial(2017) CARLOS, Ricardo V.; BOER, Hans Donald de; TORRES, Marcelo Luis Abramides; CARMONA, Maria Jose CarvalhoBACKGROUND In clinical research, neuromuscular monitoring must present a stable response for a period of 2 to 5 min before administration of a neuromuscular blocking agent. The time required to reach this stable response may be shortened by applying a 5-s tetanic stimulus. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test whether tetanic stimulation interferes with onset and recovery times after a single dose of rocuronium 0.6 mg kg(-1) followed by spontaneous recovery. DESIGN A randomised, open-label, controlled trial. SETTING A single-centre trial, study period from January 2014 to July 2015. PATIENTS Fifty children aged 2 to 11 years scheduled for elective paediatric surgery. INTERVENTION Patients were randomly allocated to receive either tetanic stimulation (group T) or not (group C) before calibration of the neuromuscular monitor. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Onset and recovery times. Initial and final T1 height, time to obtain initial T1 height stability and monitor settings were also analysed. RESULTS There was no significant difference in mean onset time [(C: 57.5 (+/- 16.9) vs. T: 58.3 (+/- 31.2) s; P = 0.917]. Mean times to normalised train-of-four (TOF) ratios of 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9 were significantly shorter in the tetanic stimulation group [C: 40.1 (+/- 7.9) vs. T: 34.8 (+/- 10) min; P = 0.047, C: 43.8 (+/- 9.4) vs. T: 37.4 (+/- 11) min; P = 0.045 and C: 49.9 (+/- 12.2) vs. T: 41.7 (+/- 13.1) min; P = 0.026, respectively]. The mean time required for T1 height stabilisation was similar in the two groups [C: 195.0 (+/- 203.0) vs. T: 116.0 (+/- 81.6) s; P = 0.093], but the initial and final T1 height values were significantly lower in the tetanic stimulation group (C: 98.0 vs. T: 82.7%; P<0.001 and C: 95.3 vs. T: 69.3%; P<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION Tetanic stimulation shortened the mean times to normalised TOF ratios of 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9, but there was no difference in the mean onset time or the mean time required for T1 height stabilisation after a single dose of rocuronium 0.6 mg kg(-1) followed by spontaneous recovery in children aged 2 to 11 years.
article 1 Citação(ões) na Scopus Experimental Model of Non-Controlled Hemorrhagic Shock in Pigs(2011) CAVALCANTE, Fernanda Paula; NANI, Ricardo Souza; ROCHA FILHO, Joel Avancini; AULER JUNIOR, Jose Otavio Costa; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; MACHADO, Marcel Cerqueira CesarCavalcante FP, Nani RS, Rocha Filho JA, Auler Junior JOC, Carmona MJC, MachadoMCC - Experimental Model of Non-Controlled Hemorrhagic Shock in Pigs. Background and objectives: A better understanding of pathophysiologic changes associated to trauma and hemorrhagic shock can help the development of therapies capable of reducing trauma-related mortality. The objective of this study was to describe a model of non-controlled hemorrhagic shock in pigs. Methods: Animals received ketamine and midazolam as pre-anesthetic medications. Anesthesia was induced with propofol, and tracheal intubation was performed with the animals on spontaneous ventilation. After intubation neuromuscular blockade was performed. Animals were maintained in controlled mechanical ventilation and normocapnia. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol and fentanyl as needed. Saline was infused during the entire preparation period. Monitoring: Cardioscope, pulse oximeter, invasive blood pressure, volumetric catheter in the pulmonary artery, and urine output by cystostomy were used. Experimental model: after the initial recording of hemodynamic, metabolic, and coagulation variables, right subcostal incision and left lobe liver biopsy were performed. Anesthetic infusion was reduced while the infusion of saline was interrupted. An incision 12 cm long 2 cm deep was performed in the right liver lobe followed by digital divulsion of the wound. During the hemorrhagic phase, an aspiration probe was placed close to the wound and the volume of aspirated blood was recorded. When mean arterial pressure reached 40 mmHg and bleeding was above 700 mL the intervention phase was initiated according to the type of study. Conclusion: The development of experimental models to reduce high mortality and costs related to trauma is important.- Metabolic Acidosis Assessment in High-Fisk Surgeries: Prognostic Importance(2016) SILVA JR., Joao Manoel; OLIVEIRA, Amanda Maria Ribas Rosa de; NOGUEIRA, Fernando Augusto Mendes; VIANNA, Pedro M. M.; AMENDOLA, Cristina Prata; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; MALBOUISSON, Luiz M. SaBACKGROUND: Metabolic acidosis frequently is present in surgical patients; however, different types of metabolic acidosis (hyperlactatemia, hyperchloremia, and others) may have different relationships to perioperative outcomes. We hypothesized that in postoperative surgical patients, distinctive types of metabolic acidosis would correlate differently with the outcomes of high-risk surgeries. METHODS: A prospective, multicenter observational study was performed in 3 different tertiary care hospitals. Patients who required postoperative admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) were included in this study. Patients with a short life expectancy (those with untreated cancer and limited treatment), hepatic failure, renal failure, or a diagnosis of diabetes were excluded. Patients were classified at ICU admission according to the presence and type of metabolic acidosis into 4 groups: those without acidosis, those with a base excess <-4 mmol/L and albumin-corrected anion gap <= 12 mmol/L (hyperchloremic), those with a base excess <-4 mmol/L and increased albumin-corrected anion gap >12 mmol/L, and those with a base excess <-4 mmol/L and hyperlactatemia >2 mmol/L. Furthermore, patients were reclassified 12 hours after admission to the ICU to verify the metabolic acidosis behavior and outcome differences among the groups. RESULTS: The study included 618 patients. The incidence of acidosis at ICU admission was 59.1%; 23.9% presented with hyperchloremia, 21.3% with hyperlactatemia, 13.9% with increased anion gap, and 40.9% of the patients presented without metabolic acidosis. Patients whose metabolic acidosis persisted for 12 hours had an incidence of ICU complications rates in hyperlactatemia group of 68.8%, increased anion gap of 68.6%, hyperchloremic of 65.8%, and those without acidosis over 12 hours of 59.3%. A Cox regression Model for postoperative 30-day mortality showed: in hyperlactatemic acidosis, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.74, 95% confidence interval (Cl) = 1.02-2.96; increased anion gap acidosis, HR = 1.68, 95% CI = 0.85-3.81; hyperchloremic acidosis, HR = 1.47, 95% CI = 0.75-2.89, and 10.3% of 30-day mortality rate in patients without acidosis. An adjusted survival curve by Cox regression found a worse 30-day survival in the hyperlactatemic group compared with the other groups (P =.03). Furthermore, in multiple comparisons among groups, patients with hyperlactatemic acidosis were more likely to develop renal dysfunction (P <.001) up to the seventh day postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: We found that among patients with different types of acidosis, patients who developed hyperlactatemic metabolic acidosis postoperatively showed greater rates of renal dysfunction within 7 days and hyperlactatemic acidosis represented an independent factor on 30-day mortality in high-risk surgical patients.
