Relationship of systemic, hepatosplanchnic, and microcirculatory perfusion parameters with 6-hour lactate clearance in hyperdynamic septic shock patients: an acute, clinical-physiological, pilot study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Recent clinical studies have confirmed the strong prognostic value of persistent hyperlactatemia and delayed lactate clearance in septic shock. Several potential hypoxic and nonhypoxic mechanisms have been associated with persistent hyperlactatemia, but the relative contribution of these factors has not been specifically addressed in comprehensive clinical physiological studies. Our goal was to determine potential hemodynamic and perfusion-related parameters associated with 6-hour lactate clearance in a cohort of hyperdynamic, hyperlactatemic, septic shock patients. METHODS:We conducted an acute clinical physiological pilot study that included 15 hyperdynamic, septic shock patients undergoing aggressive early resuscitation. Several hemodynamic and perfusion-related parameters were measured immediately after preload optimization and 6 hours thereafter, with 6-hour lactate clearance as the main outcome criterion. Evaluated parameters included cardiac index, mixed venous oxygen saturation, capillary refill time and central-to-peripheral temperature difference, thenar tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) and its recovery slope after a vascular occlusion test, sublingual microcirculatory assessment, gastric tonometry (pCO2 gap), and plasma disappearance rate of indocyanine green (ICG-PDR). Statistical analysis included Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests. RESULTS:Five patients presented a 6-hour lactate clearance <10%. Compared with 10 patients with a 6-hour lactate clearance ?10%, they presented a worse hepatosplanchnic perfusion as represented by significantly more severe derangements of ICG-PDR (9.7 (8-19) vs. 19.6 (9-32)%/min, p < 0.05) and pCO2 gap (33 (9.1-62) vs. 7.7 (3-58) mmHg, p < 0.05) at 6 hours. No other systemic, hemodynamic, metabolic, peripheral, or microcirculatory parameters differentiated these subgroups. We also found a significant correlation between ICG-PDR and pCO2 gap (p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS:Impaired 6-hour lactate clearance could be associated with hepatosplanchnic hypoperfusion in some hyperdynamic septic shock patients. Improvement of systemic, metabolic, and peripheral perfusion parameters does not rule out the persistence of hepatosplanchnic hypoperfusion in this setting. Severe microcirculatory abnormalities can be detected in hyperdynamic septic shock patients, but their role on lactate clearance is unclear. ICG-PDR may be a useful tool to evaluate hepatosplanchnic perfusion in septic shock patients with persistent hyperlactatemia. TRIAL REGISTRATION:ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01271153.

Project description:BackgroundPersistent hyperlactatemia has been considered as a signal of tissue hypoperfusion in septic shock patients, but multiple non-hypoperfusion-related pathogenic mechanisms could be involved. Therefore, pursuing lactate normalization may lead to the risk of fluid overload. Peripheral perfusion, assessed by the capillary refill time (CRT), could be an effective alternative resuscitation target as recently demonstrated by the ANDROMEDA-SHOCK trial. We designed the present randomized controlled trial to address the impact of a CRT-targeted (CRT-T) vs. a lactate-targeted (LAC-T) fluid resuscitation strategy on fluid balances within 24 h of septic shock diagnosis. In addition, we compared the effects of both strategies on organ dysfunction, regional and microcirculatory flow, and tissue hypoxia surrogates.ResultsForty-two fluid-responsive septic shock patients were randomized into CRT-T or LAC-T groups. Fluids were administered until target achievement during the 6 h intervention period, or until safety criteria were met. CRT-T was aimed at CRT normalization (≤ 3 s), whereas in LAC-T the goal was lactate normalization (≤ 2 mmol/L) or a 20% decrease every 2 h. Multimodal perfusion monitoring included sublingual microcirculatory assessment; plasma-disappearance rate of indocyanine green; muscle oxygen saturation; central venous-arterial pCO2 gradient/ arterial-venous O2 content difference ratio; and lactate/pyruvate ratio. There was no difference between CRT-T vs. LAC-T in 6 h-fluid boluses (875 [375-2625] vs. 1500 [1000-2000], p = 0.3), or balances (982[249-2833] vs. 15,800 [740-6587, p = 0.2]). CRT-T was associated with a higher achievement of the predefined perfusion target (62 vs. 24, p = 0.03). No significant differences in perfusion-related variables or hypoxia surrogates were observed.ConclusionsCRT-targeted fluid resuscitation was not superior to a lactate-targeted one on fluid administration or balances. However, it was associated with comparable effects on regional and microcirculatory flow parameters and hypoxia surrogates, and a faster achievement of the predefined resuscitation target. Our data suggest that stopping fluids in patients with CRT ≤ 3 s appears as safe in terms of tissue perfusion.

Project description:Lactate clearance is affected by hepatic function. However, it is unclear whether the association between hepatic dysfunction and lactate clearance can act as a prognostic marker of clinical outcomes in patients with septic shock. We aimed to evaluate the association between lactate clearance and mortality in two cohorts of septic shock patient who had hepatic dysfunction based on their total serum bilirubin levels (TBIL). Lactate clearance at 24 h after the onset of septic shock was analyzed using two cohorts, sub-categorized into two groups based on TBIL: < 2 mg/dL and ≥ 2 mg/dL. In the derivation cohort, lactate clearance was lower in non-survivors than in survivors with TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL, while there was no significant difference in lactate clearance between non-survivors and survivors with TBIL < 2 mg/dL. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that increased lactate clearance was significantly associated with decreased 28-day mortality in the TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL group (10% lactate clearance, adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 0.88, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.80-0.97, P = 0.0075), Creatinine level ≥ 2 mg/dL group (adjusted OR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.81-0.95, P = 0.00069) and APACHE II score ≥ 35 group (adjusted OR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.87-0.98, P = 0.013). In the validation cohort, lactate clearance was lower in non-survivors than in survivors with TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL, while no significant difference in lactate clearance was observed between non-survivors and survivors with TBIL < 2 mg/dL. Increased lactate clearance was significantly associated with decreased 28-day mortality in the TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL group (10% lactate clearance, adjusted OR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.83-0.96, P = 0.0038) and the association was just about significant in APACHE II score ≥ 35 group (adjusted OR: 0.86, 95% CI: 0.74-1.00, P = 0.051). In conclusion, increased lactate clearance in septic shock patients with hepatic dysfunction (TBIL ≥ 2 mg/dL) or high severity (APACHE II score ≥ 35) was associated with decreased 28-day mortality.

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:BACKGROUND:In patients with septic shock, the skin is often chosen for the evaluation of peripheral perfusion and oxygenation. Changes in skin microcirculatory vessel oxygen saturation and relative hemoglobin concentration can be described using a mottling score or captured with hyperspectral imaging. However, the effectiveness of the mottling score in assessing microcirculation remains to be shown. We hypothesize that the mottling score in patients with septic shock is related to skin microcirculatory perfusion indices quantified by hyperspectral imaging, biomarkers that reflect endothelium activation and damage, and clinical outcome. METHODS:Hyperspectral imaging of the knee area was performed in 95 intensive care patients with septic shock enrolled in a single-center observational study to obtain relative oxy/deoxyhemoglobin concentration values and construct anatomical maps of skin microcirculatory saturation. The blood was sampled to obtain concentrations of thrombomodulin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), angiopoietin-2, and syndecan-1. The spectrophotometrically obtained skin microvascular perfusion indices were compared to the mottling score and biomarker concentration. The association between mottling score, skin microcirculatory perfusion indices, and 28-day mortality was also analyzed. RESULTS:Microcirculatory oxygen saturation was significantly lower and total hemoglobin concentration was significantly higher in patients with a mottling score of 2 compared to those with a score of 0 (p?=?0.02), with no difference between other scores. We found an association between microcirculatory oxygen saturation and PAI-1 levels (rho?=?-?0.3; p?=?0.007). Increased mottling score and decreased microcirculatory oxygen saturation were predictive of 28-day mortality (mottling score 2 vs 0: OR 15.31, 95% CI 4.12-68.11; microcirculatory oxygen saturation: OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.85-0.95). Endothelial biomarkers did not increase the predictive value of skin microcirculatory perfusion indices. CONCLUSIONS:Higher mottling scores are associated with lower microcirculatory oxygen saturation but with significant overlap between scores. Microcirculatory oxygen saturation is a quantitative measure of peripheral oxygenation and is more specific than the mottling score in predicting 28-day mortality.
