Canine bronchomalacia (CBM) is a structural airway disease leading to chronic cough and intermittent respiratory distress, primarily affecting elderly dogs of small breeds. Results of blood gas analysis have been reported in dogs with several diseases, but not yet in those with CBM. Eleven dogs with CBM were recruited in this study. Most dogs presented with mild hypoxemia and normocapnia, and all with increased alveolar-arterial difference for O2 (A-aDO2). In computed tomography, abnormal lung p ...[more]

Project description:IntroductionThe diagnostic and prognostic value of arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) parameters in unselected patients presenting with acute dyspnea to the Emergency Department (ED) is largely unknown.MethodsWe performed a post-hoc analysis of two different prospective studies to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic value of ABGA parameters in patients presenting to the ED with acute dyspnea.ResultsWe enrolled 530 patients (median age 74 years). ABGA parameters were neither useful to distinguish between patients with pulmonary disorders and other causes of dyspnea nor to identify specific disorders responsible for dyspnea. Only in patients with hyperventilation from anxiety disorder, the diagnostic accuracy of pH and hypoxemia rendered valuable with an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) of 0.86. Patients in the lowest pH tertile more often required admission to intensive care unit (28% vs 12% in the first tertile, P < 0.001) and had higher in-hospital (14% vs 5%, P = 0.003) and 30-day mortality (17% vs 7%, P = 0.002). Cumulative mortality rate was higher in the first (37%), than in the second (28%), and the third tertile (23%, P = 0.005) during 12 months follow-up. pH at presentation was an independent predictor of 12-month mortality in multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis both for patients with pulmonary (P = 0.043) and non-pulmonary disorders (P = 0.038).ConclusionsABGA parameters provide limited diagnostic value in patients with acute dyspnea, but pH is an independent predictor of 12 months mortality.

Project description:Arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) is one of the few tests performed during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). There have been some studies on the prediction of survival outcomes in adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients during CPR using ABGA results. However, in pediatric OHCA patients, the prognosis of survival outcome based on ABGA results during CPR remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected data from the Korean Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation Consortium (KoCARC) registry, a multicenter OHCA registry of Republic of Korea. We analyzed 108 pediatric (age < 19 years) OHCA patients between October 2015 and June 2022. Using multivariable logistic regression, an adjusted odds ratio (aOR) was obtained to validate the ABGA results of survival to hospital admission and survival to discharge. The variables associated with survival to hospital admission were non-comorbidities (aOR 3.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.22-7.53, p = 0.017) and PaO2 > 45.750 mmHg (aOR 2.69, 95% CI 1.13-6.42, p = 0.026). There was no variable that was statistically significant association with survival to discharge. PaO2 > 47.750 mmHg and non-comorbidities may serve as an independent prognostic factor for survival to hospital admission in pediatric OHCA patients. However, the number of cases analyzed in our study was relatively small, and there have been few studies investigating the association between ABGA results during CPR and the survival outcome of pediatric OHCA patients. Therefore, further large-scale studies are needed.

Project description:Arterial blood gas (ABG) measurements at both maximum depth and at resurfacing prior to breathing have not previously been measured during free dives conducted to extreme depth in cold open-water conditions. An elite free diver was instrumented with a left radial arterial cannula connected to two sampling syringes through a low-volume splitting device. He performed two open-water dives to a depth of 60 m (197', 7 atmospheres absolute pressure) in the constant weight with fins competition format. ABG samples were drawn at 60 m (by a mixed-gas scuba diver) and again on resurfacing before breathing. An immersed surface static apnea, of identical length to the dives and with ABG sampling at identical times, was also performed. Both dives lasted approximately 2 min. Arterial partial pressure of oxygen ([Formula: see text]) increased during descent from an indicative baseline of 15.8 kPa (after hyperventilation and glossopharyngeal insufflation) to 42.8 and 33.3 kPa (dives 1 and 2) and decreased precipitously (to 8.2 and 8.6 kPa) during ascent. Arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide ([Formula: see text]) also increased from a low indicative baseline of 2.8 kPa to 6.3 and 5.1 kPa on dives 1 and 2; an increase not explained by metabolic production of CO2 alone since [Formula: see text] actually decreased during ascent (to 5.2 and 4.5 kPa). Surface static apnea caused a steady decrease in [Formula: see text] and increase in [Formula: see text] without the inflections provoked by depth changes. Lung compression and expansion provoke significant changes in both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] during rapid descent and ascent on a deep free dive. These changes generally support predictive hypotheses and previous findings in less extreme settings.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Arterial blood gas measurements at both maximum depth and the surface before breathing on the same dive have not previously been obtained during deep breath-hold dives in cold open-water conditions and competition dive format. Such measurements were obtained in two dives to 60 m (197') of 2 min duration. Changes in arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide (an increase during descent, and a decrease during ascent) support previous observations in less extreme dives and environments.

Project description:BackgroundArterial blood gas analysis is an important diagnostic tool in managing critically ill patients within the hospital. Whether prehospital application of this diagnostic modality contributes to more exact diagnoses and treatments in critically ill prehospital patients is unknown. The aim of this study was to establish whether access to arterial blood gas analysis increased the prehospital diagnostic accuracy of prehospital anaesthesiologists. Furthermore, we investigated whether prehospital blood gas analysis resulted in therapeutic interventions that would not have been carried out if the arterial blood gas analyser had not been available.MethodsIn a prospective randomised study, two groups of prehospital adult patients with acute critical illness were compared. All patients received standard prehospital care. In the intervention group, an arterial blood gas sample was analysed prehospitally. The primary outcome was the impact of blood gas analysis on the accuracy of prehospital diagnoses. Furthermore, we registered any therapeutic interventions that were carried out as a direct result of the blood gas analysis.ResultsA total of 310 patients were included in the study. Eighty-eight of these patients were subsequently excluded, primarily due to difficulties in obtaining post hoc consent or venous sampling or other technical difficulties. A total of 102 patients was analysed in the arterial blood gas group (ABG group), while 120 patients were analysed in the standard care group (noABG group). In 78 of the 102 patients in the ABG group, the prehospital physician reported that ABG analysis increased their perceived diagnostic precision. In 81 cases in the noABG group, the lack of arterial blood gas analysis was perceived to have decreased diagnostic accuracy. The claim that ABG analysis increased diagnostic accuracy could, however, not be substantiated as there was no difference in the number of un-specific diagnoses between the groups. Blood gas analysis increased the probability of targeting specific prehospital therapeutic interventions and led to 159 interventions, including intubation, ventilation and/or upgrading the level of urgency, in 71 ABG-group patients (p < 0.001).ConclusionAlthough prehospital arterial blood gas analysis did not improve the accuracy of the prehospital diagnoses assigned to patients, it significantly increased the quality of treatment provided to patients with acute critical illness.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03006692 , retrospectively registered six months after first patient entry.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:Screening criteria for neonatal encephalopathy remain a complex combination of subjective and objective criteria. We examine the utility of universal cord blood gas testing and mandatory encephalopathy evaluation for infants with pH ?7.10 on umbilical cord arterial blood gas (cABG) as a single screening measure for timely identification of moderate/severe encephalopathy. DESIGN, SETTING, PATIENTS:Infants born at a single centre between 2008 and 2015, who were ?36 weeks, had no congenital anomalies and had a cABG pH ?7.10 were identified for a retrospective cohort study. Maternal/perinatal and patient factors were collected. RESULTS:27?028 infants were born during the study period; 412 met all inclusion criteria. Of those, 35/85 infants with pH <7.00?and 34/327 infants with pH between 7.00 and 7.10 had moderate/severe encephalopathy. Encephalopathy was identified on the basis of pH and examination alone (no other perinatal criteria present) in 5/35 and 13/34 infants in the two pH groups, respectively.A cABG pH threshold of ?7.10 was associated with a sensitivity of 74.2% and a specificity of 98.7% for detection of moderate/severe encephalopathy. Based on these data, 25 infants with cABG pH between 7.00 and 7.10 will need to be screened to identify one neonate with moderate/severe encephalopathy, who might have otherwise been missed using conventional screening, a 15% increase in appropriate selection and treatment over current methods. CONCLUSION:Universal cord blood gas screening with a pH threshold ?7.10?and mandatory encephalopathy examination results in greater detection of infants with moderate/severe encephalopathy and timely initiation of therapeutic hypothermia.

Project description:Venous blood gas (VBG) analysis is a safer procedure than arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis and may be an alternative for determining acid-base status. The objective of this study was to examine the agreement between ABG and central VBG samples for all commonly used parameters in a medical intensive care unit (ICU) population.We performed a single-center, prospective trial to assess the agreement between arterial and central VBG measurements in a medical ICU. Adult patients who were admitted to the ICU and required both a central venous line and an arterial line were enrolled. When an ABG was performed, a central venous sample was obtained to examine the agreement among the pH, Pco(2), and bicarbonate. Data comparing central and peripheral VBG values were also obtained.The mean arterial minus venous difference for pH, Pco(2), and bicarbonate was 0.027, -3.8, and -0.80, respectively. Bland-Altman plots for agreement of pH, Pco(2), and bicarbonate showed 95% limits of agreement of -0.028 to 0.081, -12.3 to 4.8, and -4.0 to 2.4, respectively. Regression equations were derived to predict arterial values from venous values as follows: Arterial pH = -0.307 + 1.05 x venous pH, arterial Pco(2) = 0.805 + 0.936 x venous Pco(2), and arterial bicarbonate = 0.513 + 0.945 x venous bicarbonate. The mean central minus peripheral differences for pH, Pco(2), and bicarbonate were not clinically important.Peripheral or central venous pH, Pco(2), and bicarbonate can replace their arterial equivalents in many clinical contexts encountered in the ICU.

Project description:BackgroundArterial blood gases (ABG) are essential for assessment of patients with severe illness, but sampling is difficult in some settings and more painful than for peripheral venous blood gas (VBG). Venous to Arterial Conversion (v-TAC; OBIMedical ApS, Denmark) is a method to calculate ABG values from a VBG and pulse oximetry (SpO2). The aim was to validate v-TAC against ABG for measuring pH, carbon dioxide (pCO2) and oxygenation (pO2).MethodsOf 103 sample sets, 87 paired ABGs and VBGs with SpO2 from 46 inpatients eligible for ABG met strict sampling criteria. Agreement was evaluated using mean difference with 95% limits of agreement (LoA) and Bland-Altman plots.Resultsv-TAC had very high agreement with ABG for pH (mean diff(ABG-v-TAC) -0.001; 95% LoA -0.017 to 0.016), pCO2 (-0.14 kPa; 95% LoA -0.46 to 0.19) and moderate to high for pO2 (-0.28 kPa; 95% LoA -1.31 to 0.76). For detecting hypercapnia (PaCO2>6.0 kPa), v-TAC had sensitivity 100%, specificity 93.8% and accuracy 97%. The accuracy of v-TAC for detecting hypoxemia (PaO2<8.0 kPa) was comparable to that of pulse oximetry. Agreement with ABG was higher for v-TAC than for VBG for all analyses.ConclusionCalculated arterial blood gases (v-TAC) from a venous sample and pulse oximetry were comparable to ABG values and may be useful for evaluation of blood gases in clinical settings. This could reduce the logistic burden of arterial sampling, facilitate improved screening and follow-up and reduce patient pain.

Project description:We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of dynamic changes in arterial blood gas analysis (ABGA) measured after the start of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). This prospective observational study was conducted at the emergency department of a university hospital from February 2018 to February 2020. All blood samples for gas analysis were collected from a radial or femoral arterial line, which was inserted during CPR. Changes in ABGA parameters were expressed as delta (Δ), defined as the values of the second ABGA minus the values of the initial ABGA. The primary outcome was sustained ROSC. Out of the 80 patients included in the analysis, 13 achieved sustained ROSC after in-hospital resuscitation. Multivariable logistic analysis revealed that ΔpaO2 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.023; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.004-1.043, p = 0.020) along with prehospital shockable rhythm (OR = 84.680; 95% CI = 2.561-2799.939, p = 0.013) and total resuscitation duration (OR = 0.881; 95% CI = 0.805-0.964, p = 0.006) were significant predictors for sustained ROSC. Our study suggests a possible association between ΔpaO2 in ABGA during CPR and an increased rate of sustained ROSC in the late phase of OHCA.

Project description:ObjectivesIatrogenic cerebral arterial gas embolism occurs when gas enters the cerebral arterial circulation during a medical procedure and is considered a severe complication. Seizures have been described in these patients, but information on clinical characteristics, treatment, and outcome is lacking in current literature. The aim of the study was to explore seizures in patients with iatrogenic cerebral arterial gas embolism and to evaluate management strategies.DesignRetrospective single-center observational study.SettingThe only university hospital in the Netherlands with a hyperbaric oxygen therapy facility.PatientsAll patients presenting at or referred to our center with iatrogenic cerebral arterial gas embolism between May 2016 and December 2020.InterventionsNot applicable.Measurements and main resultsFifteen patients with iatrogenic cerebral arterial gas embolism were identified, of whom 11 (73%) developed seizures. Five patients developed their first seizure prior to hyperbaric oxygen therapy, three during hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and three after hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Of the 11 patients with seizures, all but one were treated with anti-epileptic drugs. With a median follow-up time of 5 months (range, 1-54 mo), five patients showed complete neurologic recovery, five had minor neurologic deficit, two had moderate to severe neurologic deficit, and three had died. Four patients still used anti-epileptic drugs at follow-up. No patients had recurrent seizures after hospital discharge.Conclusions`Seizures are a common symptom in iatrogenic cerebral arterial gas embolism. They are often treated with anti-epileptic drugs and do not seem to lead to chronic epilepsy.
