[Left ventricular-arterial coupling in the resuscitation of refractory septic shock].
摘要
OBJECTIVE: To explore the role of left ventricular-arterial coupling in the resuscitation of refractory septic shock. METHODS: A total of 58 patients with refractory septic shock admitted from January 2010 to July 2011 were retrospectively studied. Hemodynamic data, arterial lactate concentration and APACHEII (acute physiology & chronic health evaluation II) score at the beginning of and 24 hours after cardiac output monitoring, as well as the outcome of Day 28 post-diagnosis were recorded. Stroke volume index (SVI), cardiac index (CI) and global end diastolic volume index (GEDVI) were obtained through transpulmonary thermodilution technique by a pulse induced continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) system. Left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI) was approximated to (GEDVI/4-SVI) while effective arterial elastance index/ventricular end systolic elastance index (EaI/EesI) was approximated to LVESVI/SVI. RESULTS: (1) APACHEII score at the 24th hour, 24 hs lactate clearance rate and 24 hs Ea/Ees variation (ΔEa/Ees) were higher in non-survivors than those in survivors; (2) binary Logistic regression analysis showed that ΔEa/Ees and APACHEII score at the 24th hour were the independent risk factors of mortality for refractory septic shock. And the OR value of ΔEa/Ees was higher than that of APACHEII score (2.04 vs 1.63). Their areas of ROC curve were 0.705 (95%CI 0.569 - 0.841, P = 0.007) and 0.939 (95%CI 0.878 - 1.000, P = 0.000) respectively; (3) all hemodynamic parameters at the beginning had no difference between ΔEa/Ees > 0 and ΔEa/Ees ≤ 0 groups. CI, SVI, EGDT (early goal-directed therapy) compliance rate at the 24th hour in the ΔEa/Ees > 0 group were lower than those in the ΔEa/Ees ≤ 0 group. The effective arterial elastance index (EaI) at the 24th hour and the mortality rate of Day 28 in the ΔEa/Ees > 0 group were higher than those in the ΔEa/Ees ≤ 0 group; (4) during the 24 hs treatment, ΔEa/Ees was correlated negatively with the variations of CI, SVI, EesI
