  • Intravenous Immunoglobulin Fails to Improve ARDS in Patients
    Prohaska et al. Journal of Intensive Care (2018) 6:11 DOI 10.1186/s40560-018-0278-8 RESEARCH Open Access Intravenous immunoglobulin fails to improve ARDS in patients undergoing ECMO therapy Stefanie Prohaska1, Andrea Schirner1, Albina Bashota1, Andreas Körner1, Gunnar Blumenstock2 and Helene A. Haeberle1* Abstract Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is associated with high mortality rates. ARDS patients suffer from severe hypoxemia, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy may be necessary to ensure oxygenation. ARDS has various etiologies, including trauma, ischemia-reperfusion injury or infections of various origins, and the associated immunological responses may vary. To support the immunological response in this patient collective, we used intravenous IgM immunoglobulin therapy to enhance the likelihood of pulmonary recovery. Methods: ARDS patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) who were placed on ECMO and treated with (IVIG group; n = 29) or without (control group; n = 28) intravenous IgM-enriched immunoglobulins for 3 days in the initial stages of ARDS were analyzed retrospectively. Results: The baseline characteristics did not differ between the groups, although the IVIG group showed a significantly reduced oxygenation index compared to the control group. We found no differences in the length of ICU stay or ventilation parameters. We did not find a significant difference between the groups for the extent of inflammation or for overall survival. Conclusion: We conclude that administration

  • Rapid Evidence Review
    Rapid Evidence Review Clinical evidence for the use of intravenous immunoglobulin in the treatment of COVID- 19 Version 2, 14th May 2020 1 Prepared by the COVID-19 Evidence Review Group with clinical contribution from Dr. Niall Conlon, Consultant Immunologist, St. James Hospital, Dr. Mary Keogan, Clinical Lead National Clinical Programme for Pathology & Consultant Immunologist, Beaumont Hospital. Key changes between version 1 and version 2 (14th May 2020) A number of case reports describing the use of IVIG are included in this version and 2 additional studies which focused specifically on the use of IVIG in patients with COVID-19 – one case series and one retrospective cohort study (available as a pre-print). A number of guidelines have included a reference to IVIG, but the general consensus is not to use IVIG. The recent reports of Kawasaki Disease in children with COVID-19 highlight the role of IVIG and aspirin to treat this condition and supporting evidence of its benefit are available from 2 case reports and one case series. The COVID-19 Evidence Review Group for Medicines was established to support the HSE in managing the significant amount of information on treatments for COVID-19. This COVID-19 Evidence Review Group is comprised of evidence synthesis practitioners from across the National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics (NCPE), Medicines Management Programme (MMP) and the National Medicines Information Centre (NMIC). The group respond to queries raised via the Office of the CCO, National Clinical Programmes and the Department of Health and respond in a timely way with the evidence review supporting the query.

  • Best-Practice Igm- and Iga-Enriched Immunoglobulin Use in Patients with Sepsis
    Nierhaus et al. Ann. Intensive Care (2020) 10:132 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13613-020-00740-1 REVIEW Open Access Best-practice IgM- and IgA-enriched immunoglobulin use in patients with sepsis Axel Nierhaus1,2* , Giorgio Berlot3, Detlef Kindgen‑Milles4, Eckhard Müller5 and Massimo Girardis6 Abstract Background: Sepsis is a life‑threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Despite treatment being in line with current guidelines, mortality remains high in those with septic shock. Intrave‑ nous immunoglobulins represent a promising therapy to modulate both the pro‑ and anti‑infammatory processes and can contribute to the elimination of pathogens. In this context, there is evidence of the benefts of immuno‑ globulin M (IgM)‑ and immunoglobulin A (IgA)‑enriched immunoglobulin therapy for sepsis. This manuscript aims to summarize current relevant data to provide expert opinions on best practice for the use of an IgM‑ and IgA‑enriched immunoglobulin (Pentaglobin) in adult patients with sepsis. Main text: Sepsis patients with hyperinfammation and patients with immunosuppression may beneft most from treatment with IgM‑ and IgA‑enriched immunoglobulin (Pentaglobin). Patients with hyperinfammation present with phenotypes that manifest throughout the body, whilst the clinical characteristics of immunosuppression are less clear. Potential biomarkers for hyperinfammation include elevated procalcitonin, interleukin‑6, endotoxin activity and C‑reactive protein, although thresholds for these are not well‑defned. Convenient biomarkers for identifying patients in a stage of immune‑paralysis are still matter of debate, though human leukocyte antigen–antigen D related expression on monocytes, lymphocyte count and viral reactivation have been proposed. The timing of treatment is potentially more critical for treatment efcacy in patients with hyperinfammation compared with patients who are in an immunosuppressed stage.

    This article has been retracted: please see INNOVATIONS in pharmacy retraction policy (https://pubs.lib.umn.edu/index.php/innovations/policies). This article has been retracted by the Editor and Publisher due to the inappropriate use of previously published work. Commentary PHARMACY PRACTICE Pharmacists in Critical Care AK Mohiuddin, Assistant Professor Department of Pharmacy, World University of Bangladesh, Bangladesh Abstract The beginnings of caring for critically ill patients date back to Florence Nightingale’s work during the Crimean War in 1854, but the subspecialty of critical care medicine is relatively young. The first US multidisciplinary intensive care unit (ICU) was established in 1958, and the American Board of Medical Subspecialties first recognized the subspecialty of critical care medicine in 1986. Critical care pharmacy services began around the 1970s, growing in the intervening 40 years to become one of the largest practice areas for clinical pharmacists, with its own section in the SCCM, the largest international professional organization in the field. During the next decade, pharmacy services expanded to various ICU settings (both adult and pediatric), the operating room, and the emergency department. In these settings, pharmacists established clinical practices consisting of therapeutic drug monitoring, nutrition support, and participation in patient care rounds. Pharmacists also developed efficient and safe drug delivery systems with the evolution of critical care pharmacy satellites and other innovative programs. In the 1980s, critical care pharmacists designed specialized training programs and increased participation in critical care organizations. The number of critical care residencies and fellowships doubled between the early 1980s and the late 1990s. Standards for critical care residency were developed, and directories of residencies and fellowships were published.

Preventive approach implies taking a thorough anamnesis with the emphasis on previously diagnosed allergies. If an allergic reaction occurred during previous surgery, a detailed documentation of administered anaesthetic agents and drugs would be crucial for the following anaesthesiologic management. Preoperative planning and avoiding cross-reactivity with drugs commonly used during anaesthesia are the key points to prevent an anaphylaxis. In case of emergency surgery when the exact identification of allergens is not possible, premedication prophylaxis should be considered. General measures for prevention of anaphylaxis could be undertaken as well, such as the choice of anaesthesiologic drugs and techniques in the operating theatre adequately equipped for the management

  • Cardiothoracic Critical Care
    Cardiothoracic Critical Care a, b c Kevin W. Lobdell, MD *, Douglas W. Haden, MD , Kshitij P. Mistry, MD KEYWORDS Critical care Cardiothoracic surgery Quality Safety Value KEY POINTS High-value cardiothoracic critical care (CCC) is rapidly evolving to meet the demands of increased patient acuity and to incorporate advances in technology. The high-performing CCC system and culture should aim to learn quickly and continu- ously improve. CCC demands a proactive, interactive, precise, and expert team, as well as continuity. CARDIOTHORACIC DISEASE AND THERAPY Incidence and Prevalence Acquired heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, with 611,106 deaths forecasted for 2016; it affects 11.5% of the population and is estimated to result in 3.7 million hospitalizations annually with an average stay of 4.6 days.1 Approx- imately 152,000 coronary artery bypass (CAB) operations were recorded in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons-Adult Cardiac Database (STS-ACSD) in 2015, while approxi- mately 600,000 cardiac surgical procedures were expected to be performed in 2016.2 Congenital heart disease affects approximately 40,000 children annually in the United States, and 25% of those require surgery in their first year of life.3 8.5% of adults will have a diagnosis of cancer in their lifetime, and cancer was fore- casted to claim 584,881 lives in 2016 (the second most common cause of death in the United States).4 Furthermore, the American Cancer Society estimated 224,390 new cases of lung cancer in the United States for 2016 and 158,080 deaths (which ac- counts for approximately 25% of cancer deaths).5,6 The American Cancer Society also forecasted 16,910 new cases and 15,690 deaths from esophageal cancer in the United States for 2016 (approximately 20% of patients survive 5 years or more after diagnosis, a four-fold improvement over the last 40 years).7,8 The authors have nothing to disclose.
