Platelet Function Disturbance During Veno-Venous ECMO in ARDS Patients Assessed by Multiple Electrode Aggregometry-A Prospective, Observational Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: Extracorporeal (veno-venous) membrane oxygenation (vvECMO) has been shown to have negative effects on platelet number and function. This study aimed to gain more information about the impact of vvECMO on platelet function assessed by multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA). Twenty patients with the indication for vvECMO were included. Platelet function was analyzed using MEA (Multiplate®) before (T-1), 6 h (T0), one (T1), two (T2), three (T3), and seven (T4) days after the beginning of vvECMO. Median aggregational measurements were already below the normal reference range before vvECMO initiation. Platelet aggregation was significantly reduced 6 h after vvECMO initiation compared to T-1 and spontaneously recovered with a significant increase at T2. Platelet count dropped significantly between T-1 and T0 and continuously decreased between T0 and T4. At T4, ADP-induced platelet aggregation showed an inverse correlation with the paO2 in the oxygenator. Platelet function should be assessed by MEA before the initiation of extracorporeal circulation. Although ECMO therapy led to a further decrease in platelet aggregation after 6 h, all measurements had recovered to baseline on day two. This implies that MEA as a whole blood method might not adequately reflect the changes in platelet function in the later stages of extracorporeal circulation.

Project description:BackgroundHerpesviridae reactivation among non-immunocompromised critically ill patients is associated with impaired prognosis, especially during acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, little is known about herpes simplex virus (HSV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation occurring in patients with severe ARDS under veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). We tried to determine the frequency of Herpesviridae reactivation and its impact on patients' prognosis during ECMO for severe ARDS.ResultsDuring a 5-year period, 123 non-immunocompromised patients with a severe ARDS requiring a veno-venous ECMO were included. Sixty-seven patients (54%) experienced HSV and/or CMV reactivation during ECMO course (20 viral co-infection, 40 HSV alone, and 7 CMV alone). HSV reactivation occurred earlier than CMV after the beginning of MV [(6-15) vs. 19 (13-29) days; p < 0.01] and after ECMO implementation [(2-8) vs. 14 (10-20) days; p < 0.01]. In univariate analysis, HSV/CMV reactivation was associated with a longer duration of mechanical ventilation [(22-52.5) vs. 17.5 (9-28) days; p < 0.01], a longer duration of ECMO [15 (10-22.5) vs. 9 (5-14) days; p < 0.01], and a prolonged ICU [29 (19.5-47.5) vs. 16 (9-30) days; p < 0.01] and hospital stay [44 (29-63.5) vs. 24 (11-43) days; p < 0.01] as compared to non-reactivated patients. However, in multivariate analysis, viral reactivation remained associated with prolonged MV only. When considered separately, both HSV and CMV reactivation were associated with a longer duration of MV as compared to non-reactivation patients [29 (19.5-41) and 28 (20.5-37), respectively, vs. 17.5 (9-28) days; p < 0.05]. Co-reactivation patients had a longer duration of MV [58.5 (38-72.3); p < 0.05] and ICU stay [51.5 (32.5-69) vs. 27.5 (17.75-35.5) and 29 (20-30.5), respectively] as compared to patients with HSV or CMV reactivation alone. In multivariate analysis, HSV reactivation remained independently associated with a longer duration of MV and hospital length of stay.ConclusionsHerpesviridae reactivation is frequent among patients with severe ARDS under veno-venous ECMO and is associated with a longer duration of mechanical ventilation. The direct causative link between HSV and CMV reactivation and respiratory function worsening under ECMO remains to be confirmed.

Project description:BackgroundHemolysis is associated with increased mortality in patients with sepsis, ARDS, or therapy with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). To quantify a critical threshold of hemolysis in patients with ARDS and treatment with veno-venous ECMO, we aimed to identify cutoff values for cell-free hemoglobin (CFH) and haptoglobin (Hp) plasma concentrations associated with a significant increase in ICU mortality.MethodsPatients with ARDS admitted to a tertiary ARDS referral center between 01/2007 and 12/2018 and treatment with veno-venous ECMO were included. Cutoff values for mean CFH (mCFH) and mean Hp (mHp) plasma concentrations dividing the cohort into groups with significantly different ICU mortalities were calculated and patient characteristics were compared. A multiple logistic regression model with stepwise backward variable selection was included. In addition, cutoff values for vulnerable relative timespans for the respective CFH and Hp concentrations were calculated.ResultsA quantitative cutoff value of 11 mg/dl for mCFH separated the cohort (n = 442) regarding ICU mortality (mCFH ≤ 11 mg/dl: 38%, [95%-CI: 32.22-43.93] (n = 277) vs. mCFH > 11 mg/dl: 70%, [61.99-76.47] (n = 165), p < 0.001). Analogously, a mHp cutoff value ≤ 0.39 g/l was associated with a significant increase in ICU mortality (mHp ≤ 0.39 g/l: 68.7%, [60.91-75.61] (n = 163) vs. mHp > 0.39 g/l: 38.7%, [33.01-44.72] (n = 279), p < 0.001). The independent association of ICU mortality with CFH and Hp cutoff values was confirmed by logistic regression adjusting for confounders (CFH Grouping: OR 3.77, [2.51-5.72], p < 0.001; Hp Grouping: OR 0.29, [0.19-0.43], p < 0.001). A significant increase in ICU mortality was observed when CFH plasma concentration exceeded the limit of 11 mg/dl on 13.3% of therapy days (≤ 13.3% of days with CFH > 11 mg/dl: 33%; [26.81-40.54] (n = 192) vs. > 13.3% of days with CFH > 11 mg/dl: 62%; [56.05-68.36] (n = 250), p < 0.001). Analogously, a mortality increase was detected when Hp plasma concentration remained ≤ 0.39 g/l for > 18.2% of therapy days (≤ 18.2% days with Hp ≤ 0.39 g/l: 27%; [19.80-35.14] (n = 138) vs. > 18.2% days with Hp ≤ 0.39 g/l: 60%; [54.43-65.70] (n = 304), p < 0.001).ConclusionsModerate hemolysis with mCFH-levels as low as 11 mg/dl impacts mortality in patients with ARDS and therapy with veno-venous ECMO. Furthermore, a cumulative dose effect should be considered indicated by the relative therapy days with CFH-concentrations > 11 mg/dl. In addition, also Hp plasma concentrations need consideration when the injurious effect of elevated CFH is evaluated.

Project description:BackgroundAcute distress respiratory syndrome (ARDS) patients with veno-venous extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support are particularly exposed to ECMO-associated infection (ECMO-AI). Unfortunately, data regarding AI prophylaxis in this setting are lacking. Selective decontamination regimens decrease AI incidence, including ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and bloodstream infection (BSI) in critically ill patients. We hypothesized that a multiple-site decontamination (MSD) regimen is associated with a reduction in the incidence of AI among VV-ECMO patients.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective observational study in three French ECMO referral centers from January 2010 to December 2021. All adult patients (> 18 years old) who received VV-ECMO support for ARDS were eligible. In addition to standard care (SC), 2 ICUs used MSD, which consists of the administration of topical antibiotics four times daily in the oropharynx and the gastric tube, once daily chlorhexidine body-wash and a 5-day nasal mupirocin course. AIs were compared between the 2 ICUs using MSD (MSD group) and the last ICU using SC.ResultsThey were 241 patients available for the study. Sixty-nine were admitted in an ICU that applied MSD while the 172 others received standard care and constituted the SC group. There were 19 ECMO-AIs (12 VAP, 7 BSI) in the MSD group (1162 ECMO-days) compared to 143 AIs (104 VAP, 39 BSI) in the SC group (2376 ECMO-days), (p < 0.05 for all infection site). In a Poisson regression model, MSD was independently associated with a lower incidence of ECMO-AI (IRR = 0.42, 95% CI [0.23-0.60] p < 0.001). There were 30 multidrug resistant microorganisms (MDRO) acquisition in the SC group as compared with two in the MSD group (IRR = 0.13, 95% CI [0.03-0.56] p = 0.001). Mortality in ICU was similar in both groups (43% in the SC group vs 45% in the MSD group p = 0.90). Results were similar after propensity-score matching.ConclusionIn this cohort of patients from different hospitals, MSD appeared to be safe in ECMO patients and may be associated with improved outcomes including lower ECMO-AI and MDRO acquisition incidences. Since residual confounders may persist, these promising results deserve confirmation by randomized controlled trials.
