Hyperspectral Imaging for the Evaluation of Microcirculatory Tissue Oxygenation and Perfusion Quality in Haemorrhagic Shock: A Porcine Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The ultimate goal of haemodynamic therapy is to improve microcirculatory tissue and organ perfusion. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has the potential to enable noninvasive microcirculatory monitoring at bedside.

Methods

HSI (Tivita^® Tissue System) measurements of tissue oxygenation, haemoglobin, and water content in the skin (ear) and kidney were evaluated in a double-hit porcine model of major abdominal surgery and haemorrhagic shock. Animals of the control group (n = 7) did not receive any resuscitation regime. The interventional groups were treated exclusively with either crystalloid (n = 8) or continuous norepinephrine infusion (n = 7).

Results

Haemorrhagic shock led to a drop in tissue oxygenation parameters in all groups. These correlated with established indirect markers of tissue oxygenation. Fluid therapy restored tissue oxygenation parameters. Skin and kidney measurements correlated well. High dose norepinephrine therapy deteriorated tissue oxygenation. Tissue water content increased both in the skin and the kidney in response to fluid therapy.

Conclusions

HSI detected dynamic changes in tissue oxygenation and perfusion quality during shock and was able to indicate resuscitation effectivity. The observed correlation between HSI skin and kidney measurements may offer an estimation of organ oxygenation impairment from skin monitoring. HSI microcirculatory monitoring could open up new opportunities for the guidance of haemodynamic management.

Project description:BackgroundCerebral hypoperfusion and impaired oxygen delivery during pediatric critical illness may result in acute neurologic injury with subsequent long-term effects on neurodevelopmental outcome. Yet, the impact of norepinephrine on cerebral hemodynamics is unknown in children with shock. We aimed to describe the norepinephrine effects on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation during pediatric shock.Patients and methodsWe conducted an observational multicentre prospective study in 3 French pediatric intensive care units. Children <18 years of age excluding traumatic brain injury were included in the study if they need norepinephrine for shock. Systemic and cerebral hemodynamics were compared between the time of initiation of norepinephrine (T0), and the steady-state (Tss). Cardiac output (CO) was measured using ultrasound. Cerebral perfusion was assessed on middle cerebral arteries (MCA) using transcranial doppler ultrasound. Cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (rScO2) was recorded using near infrared spectroscopy, and we calculated cerebral fractional tissue oxygen extraction (cFTOE = SpO2-rScO2/SpO2).Main resultsFourteen children (median [IQR] age of 3.5[1; 13.5] years) were included. Norepinephrine at 0.2[0.1; 0.32] μg/kg/min significantly increased mean arterial blood pressure (61[56; 73] mmHg at Tss vs. 49[42;54] mmHg at T0, p=10-3) without change of CO. MCA velocities, pulsatility index, rScO2, and cFTOE did not significantly change between T0 and Tss. Some individuals observed variations in estimated CBF, which slightly improved in 7 patients, remained unchanged in 5, and was impaired in 2. No patient experienced significant variations of rScO2.ConclusionsLow-dosing norepinephrine, despite a homogeneous and significant increase in arterial blood pressure, had little effects on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation during pediatric shock. This reinforces the need for personalized tailored therapies in this population.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov, NCT03731104.
