Consecutive daily measurements of luminal concentrations of lactate in the rectum in septic shock patients.

ABSTRACT: In a recent study we found no difference in the concentrations of luminal lactate in the rectum between nonsurvivors and survivors in early septic shock (<24?h). This study was initiated to investigate if there are any changes in the concentrations of luminal lactate in the rectum during the first 3 days of septic shock and possible differences between nonsurvivors and survivors. Methods. We studied 22 patients with septic shock in this observational study. Six to 24?h after the onset of septic shock the concentration of lactate in the rectal lumen was estimated by 4?h equilibrium dialysis (day 1). The rectal dialysis was repeated on day 2 and day 3. Results. The concentration of lactate in the rectal lumen did not change over the 3 days in neither nonsurvivors nor survivors. Rectal luminal and arterial lactate concentrations were not different. Conclusion. There was no change in the concentration of lactate in the rectal lumen over time in patients with septic shock. Also, there was no difference between nonsurvivors and survivors.

Project description:ObjectivesMottling score is estimated from 0-5 according to mottling over the knee and described as clinical evaluation of tissue perfusion. This score was developed with ancient definitions of sepsis without lactate level, a major prognostic parameter when superior to 2 mmol/L. This study describes mottling incidence and mottling score in septic shock patients according to lactate level.Materials and methodsWe reanalyzed our prospective study in a French tertiary hospital in the intensive care unit (ICU) which studied mottling score and thermography correlation. Patients admitted to septic shock diagnosis and requiring vasoactive drugs were included. We recorded hemodynamic variables, mottling score, and lactate. Data collection was realized at ICU admission (H0) and after six hours (H6).ResultsForty-three patients were included. Mean age was 67 (±4), mean sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score was 11 (8-12), and SAPS II 58 ±20. Mortality rate at day 28 was 30%. Among patients with lactate ≥2 mmol/L, mottling was more prevalent in 82.6% vs 47.4% (p value = 0.016), and at H6 mottling score was higher (p value = 0.009). Although, mottling incidence was not different between dead (85%) and survivors (81%; p value = 0.795).ConclusionA new sepsis definition implies a new epidemiology in mottling according to lactate threshold. Patients with lactate ≥2 mmol/L presented a higher incidence and score of mottling. However, mortality was not influenced by mottling in this study.Clinical significanceArterial lactate is a major prognostic parameter when superior to 2 mmol/L.A new definition of sepsis was published in 2016 with a new paradigm and epidemiology of septic shockPatients with lactate ≥2 mmol/L presented a higher incidence and score of mottling.Mottling score is a clinical sign of microcirculatory alteration, related to lactate level in septic shock.How to cite this articleFerraris A, Bouisse C, Thiollière F, Piriou V, Allaouchiche B.

Project description:Background: Some septic shock patients have persistent hyperlactacidemia despite a normal systemic hemodynamics after resuscitation. Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and central venous pressure (CVP) cannot be target in subsequent hemodynamic treatments. Vasoplegia is considered to be one of the main causes of oxygen metabolism abnormalities in septic shock patients, and norepinephrine (NE) is the first-line vasopressor in septic shock treatment; its dosage represents the severity of vasoplegia. This study was performed to determine whether vasoplegia, as assessed by NE dosage, can indicate patients' lactate clearance after the completion of resuscitation. Methods: A retrospective study was performed, and 106 patients with septic shock in an intensive care unit were analyzed. Laboratory values and hemodynamic variables were obtained upon completion of resuscitation (H 0) and 6 h after (H 6). Lactate clearance was defined as the percent decrease in lactate from H 0 to H 6. Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests, logistic regression analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed for statistical analysis. Results: Patients with a mean age of 63.7 ± 13.8 years, baseline APACHE II score of 21.0 ± 5.1, and SOFA score of 12.7 ± 2.7 were enrolled. The study found that after 6-h of resuscitation, lactate clearance (LC) was <10% in 33 patients (31.1%). Patients with 6-h LC <10% compared with 6-h LC ≥ 10% had a higher NE dose (μg·kg-1·min-1) (0.55 [0.36-0.84] vs. 0.25 [0.18-0.41], p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis of statistically significant univariate variables showed that NE dose had a significant inverse relationship with 6-h LC < 10%. The cutoff for NE was ≥ 0.32 μg·kg-1·min-1 for predicting 6-h lactate clearance after resuscitation, with a sensitivity of 75.76% and a specificity of 70.00%. Septic shock patients with an NE dose ≥ 0.32 μg·kg-1·min-1, relative to patients with an NE dose < 0.32 μg·kg-1·min-1, had a greater 30-day mortality rate (69.8% vs. 26.4% p < 0.001). Conclusion: Some patients with septic shock had persistent oxygen metabolism disorders after hemodynamic resuscitation. NE dose may indicate vasoplegia and oxygen metabolism disorder. After resuscitation, septic shock patients with high-dose NE have lower lactate clearance and a greater 30-day mortality rate than those with low-dose NE.

Project description:BackgroundDespite the intensive efforts to improve the diagnosis and therapy of sepsis over the last decade, the mortality of septic shock remains high and causes substantial socioeconomical burden of disease. The function of immune cells is time-of-day-dependent and is regulated by several circadian clock genes. This study aims to investigate whether the rhythmicity of clock gene expression is altered in patients with septic shock.MethodsThis prospective pilot study was performed at the university hospital Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Department of Anesthesiology and Operative Intensive Care Medicine (CCM, CVK). We included 20 patients with septic shock between May 2014 and January 2018, from whom blood was drawn every 4 h over a 24-h period to isolate CD14-positive monocytes and to measure the expression of 17 clock and clock-associated genes. Of these patients, 3 whose samples expressed fewer than 8 clock genes were excluded from the final analysis. A rhythmicity score SP was calculated, which comprises values between -1 (arrhythmic) and 1 (rhythmic), and expression data were compared to data of a healthy study population additionally.Results77% of the measured clock genes showed inconclusive rhythms, i.e., neither rhythmic nor arrhythmic. The clock genes NR1D1, NR1D2 and CRY2 were the most rhythmic, while CLOCK and ARNTL were the least rhythmic. Overall, the rhythmicity scores for septic shock patients were significantly (p < 0.0001) lower (0.23 ± 0.26) compared to the control group (12 healthy young men, 0.70 ± 0.18). In addition, the expression of clock genes CRY1, NR1D1, NR1D2, DBP, and PER2 was suppressed in septic shock patients and CRY2 was significantly upregulated compared to controls.ConclusionMolecular rhythms in immune cells of septic shock patients were substantially altered and decreased compared to healthy young men. The decrease in rhythmicity was clock gene-dependent. The loss of rhythmicity and down-regulation of clock gene expression might be caused by sepsis and might further deteriorate immune responses and organ injury, but further studies are necessary to understand underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.
