Role of Monitoring: What to Measure — When and How Reliable
Measurement of preload (LVEDV) by echocardiography is a relative measure of cardiac filling, though this is poorly predictive of volume responsiveness. Likewise, a static indirect measure of preload by CVP has poor discriminative capacity to identify patients who will respond to addi­tional fluid administration with augmented stroke volume.
12
Respiratory cycle thoracic pressure variations influence volume and pressure esti­mates of preload, so that the greater the preload deficit, the greater the res­piratory cycle variation. Several novel monitoring strategies have been offered that take advantage of dynamic respiratory cycle variation, and may provide a useful predictive index of preload deficit that is a better clinical determinant than CVP. Among dynamic indications of cardiac fill­ing, the IVC collapsibility index has been shown to perform better than CVP in detecting preload deficit and predicting response to fluid bolus administration.
13
Continuous measurement of ScvO2, as a monitoring target of EGDT as described by Rivers et al. has not been widely adopted and requires specialized invasive monitoring. Moreover, among patients with septic shock who were treated to normalize central venous and mean arterial pressure, additional management to normalize lactate clearance, targeting at least 10% decreased lactate as a goal of an initial 6 hr of resuscitation, compared with management to normalize ScvO

cantly different in-hospital mortality.

Other Therapeutic Considerations/Controversies
Transfusion of PRBCs is a controversial part of a bundled goal directed therapy that has not been independently validated. Although transfusion may increase oxygen content, it has limited or negative oxygen consumption ben­efit in the setting of microcirculatory disturbance in sepsis and critical illness.
Restrictive transfusion policy targeting Hgb >7.0 is recommended in sepsis and other critical illnesses that render patients at risk for ARDS and MODS, with associated augmented mortality risk.
15
Guidelines such as the Surviving Sepsis Campaign currently maintain that hydrocortisone < 300 mg/day should be administered for volume non- responsive septic shock (Table 3). Nevertheless, no mortality benefit has been reproducibly demonstrated, perhaps owing to the inclusion of large numbers of patients who received etomidate which blocks steroid metab­olism in the single trial that purported to show such a benefit. Cortrosyn stimulation testing is no longer recommended, based on the recognition that nonresponder information is obtained in retrospect and does not clearly predict a pressor-sparing effect.
16
Initial enthusiasm for intensive insulin therapy to improve outcome in sepsis and septic shock has been tempered by poor reproducibility of ben­efit in multiple trials, largely attributed to the counterbalancing effect of excess hypoglycemia and an associated increased risk of death.
17
A pru­dent recommendation is to maintain BG <150 with careful attention to hypoglycemia by insuring adequate nutrition through the enteral or intra­venous route.

Manifestations and Management of the Host/Pathogen/Physician Response
For those patients who manifest oliguric renal failure, CVVH offers no benefit compared to intermittent hemodialysis in the absence of demonstrated hemodynamic intolerance to a trial of dialysis.
18
The action of rAPC to improve outcome in severe sepsis is contro­versial, based on poor reproducibility of initial demonstration of benefit in a carefully selected cohort. Actions of APC in sepsis are thought to relate to anti-inflammatory properties as well as improvement in blood fluidity which may affect microcirculation. rAPC is considered possibly indicated in a carefully selected group of patients with a narrow timeline for initiation within the first 24 hr in patients with a compact clinical presentation, limited bleeding risk, and a high mortality estimate based on Apache II > 25.
19
Agents with vasodilatory properties have been purported to improve microcirculatory flow in sepsis, though the added clinical benefit of these interventions remains unclear. Such agents as dobutamine, cholinergic agonists, and therapy, which increase nitric oxide bioavailability (e.g. IV nitroglycerine), are undergoing investigation for this activity, though it has not-yet-demonstrated clinical value.
Targeted therapy aimed at interruption of individual inflammatory cas­cade elements (e.g. anti-TNF mAb) has been largely disappointing, with no mortality benefit in a wide variety of trials. Patients with severe sepsis invariably present after the initial innate response, which is short-lived and results in myriad downstream cascades including counterregulatory and potentially compensatory anti-inflammatory responses (CARS). The sys­tems-based approach to cell signaling in sepsis has provided insight into the vast array of interwoven and time-sensitive signaling nodes and cross­talk which expose the complex task of clinically meaningful amelioration of sepsis by any strategy that targets early mediators of sepsis.

to host factor susceptibility to MODS and increased mortality in sepsis. For example, polymorphisms in TNF-alpha, a history of alcoholism, and African-American heritage have all been associated with worse outcome.
The action of rAPC in severe sepsis is controversial, based on poor repro­ducibility of initial demonstration of benefit in selected cohorts of septic patients. Actions of APC in sepsis are thought to relate to anti-inflammatory properties as well as blood fluidity properties that may affect microcirculatory disturbances in sepsis.

Until recently, rAPC was available as drotrecogin alpha [Xigris] for administration for carefully selected patients with severe sepsis with APACHE II >25. However, in a recently completed clinical trial, the PROWESS-SHOCK trial, drotecogin alpha [Xigris] failed to show a sur­vival benefit. Results based on preliminary analyses done by Eli Lilly and Company, that were submitted to the FDA, showed a 28-day all cause mortality rate of 26.4% in Xirgis-treated patients as compared with 24.2% in placebo-treated patients, equivalent to a relative risk of 1.09; with a p-value of 0.31, which is not statistically significant. As a result, the FDA announced in October 2011 that Ely Lilly has voluntarily withdrawn drotrecogin alpha from the market and is no longer available for patient adminstration. Generating an APACHE II score had been utilized to assess the risk/benefit of rAPC administration, and may similarly be used to stratify patients for future novel therapeutics. Severity scoring systems have limited predictive power for individual patients at presentation, are limited to an ICU cohort, and may be logistically cumbersome to generate. Web-based severity score assistance is available from many sources (see www.medal.org). Simpler consolidated scoring modalities have been offered to improve routine incorporation into clinical activities.
Lastly, scoring schemes that also document the trajectory of response over time to therapy or accumulated organ dysfunction offer a better dis­criminator of outcome than initial admission screening modalities alone. The SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) is presented in Table 5, and is more streamlined, with fewer physiologic variables than APACHE. SOFA assessment may inform decision making and adjust goals of care in patients who demonstrate progressive organ failure assessment despite resuscitative efforts.

Key Pearls

Modes of mechanical ventilation differ in how a breath is delivered, sustained, and terminated, as well as the degree of ventilatory support provided to a patient. Patients with specific clinical conditions may benefit from one mode over another.
Patients who are mechanically ventilated require continuous hemody­namic as well as laboratory data to provide information about gas exchange.
Supportive care of the mechanically ventilated patient includes ade­quate sedation and analgesia that can relieve pain and help prevent patient–ventilator dyssynchrony.
Respiratory distress on the mechanical ventilator can be life-threatening and requires immediate attention. In addition to physical exam, labo­ratory and imaging data, evaluation of respiratory parameters such as peak and plateau airway pressures can help identify the root of distress.
Liberation from the ventilator requires a patient to be clinically ready prior to initiating a spontaneous breathing trial. Successful weaning requires daily interruption of sedatives and a multidisciplinary, proto­colized approach.

Introduction

Respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation can be caused by a variety of medical conditions. Most commonly, mechanical ventilation is initiated for hypoxemic respiratory failure, hypercapnic respiratory failure, altered mental status requiring a stable airway, respiratory muscle fatigue, and bronchospasm. A thorough understanding of the modes and parame­ters of ventilators, as well as the management of complications from mechanical ventilation, is important in order to safely provide this therapy to patients.

Initiation of Mechanical Ventilation

Modes and Settings
Volume, pressure, and flow are three interrelated variables in all forms of mechanical ventilation. Modes of ventilation are differentiated by how inspiration is initiated (trigger variable), maintained (limit variable), and terminated (cycle variable). A breath is triggered by a preset variable — most often either pressure or flow. Then an inspiration is maintained and cycles to expiration once a preset measure of volume, pressure, flow, or time is met.
The three most common modes of mechanical ventilation are assist
control ventilation (ACV), spontaneous intermittent mechanical ventila­tion (SIMV), and pressure support ventilation (PSV), as outlined in Table 1. ACV imposes the least amount of work of breathing for a patient and therefore is the most widely used mode.

In this mode, the ventilator supports every breath. A baseline respiratory rate (RR) is set, though the patient may breathe over this rate. The ACV mode can be either volume­or pressure-cycled. In volume-cycled ACV, a baseline RR, inspiratory flow, and tidal volume (TV) are designated with the dependent variable being airway pressure. Conversely, with pressure-cycled ACV, a peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), inspiratory time (T
i
), and RR are set with TV as the dependent variable. This mode provides the advantage of control­ling airway pressures but with the drawback of not guaranteeing a specific

TV and therefore minute ventilation. The SIMV and PSV modes provide less ventilatory support for patients but offer some advantages regarding patient comfort and use as weaning modalities (Table 1).
Once a mode of ventilation is decided on, other settings, such as RR,
delivered oxygen (F
iO2
), positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), and inspiratory flow, can be chosen (Table 2). When volume-cycled ACV is used, PIP and plateau pressure (P

) can be measured. PIP is the highest
