Fluid Management

• fluid management in the ICU

Neurology

• ICU sedation
• brain death exams
• use minimum of 4 mg ativan for seizures?
• traumatic brain injury overview
• use osmolar gap for mannitol administration for hypernatremia

Cardiology

• shock in icu
• vasopressors in ICU
• elevated shock index can suggest shock
• cardiac hemodynamics and pressures
• left axillary arterial line for invasive monitoring
• pulse pressure variation and systolic pressure variation predicts fluid responsiveness
• Angiotensin II for the Treatment of Vasodilatory Shock by ATHOS-3 trial
• ICU MAP targets of 65
• multisystem inflammatory syndrome MIS

Airway and Pulmonology

• NIV settings in acute respiratory failure
• basic understanding of ventilators
• capnography
• extubation contraindications include arrythmia, ACS, hemodynamic instability
• SBT and SAT spontaneous awakening and breathing trials
• Big Vt, 2x than baseline is a good sign for SBT
• RASS 0 to -1 includes opening eyes to commands for 10 seconds
• ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome
• Asynchrony Consequences and Management
• driving pressure is plateau pressure minus PEEP
• use AVAPS over bipap for better minute ventilation
• ventilator induced lung injury VILI happens from over distention of normal lung?
  • electric impedance tomography can help with avoiding VILI
• noninvasive PAP ventilation does not prevent reintubation in ICU
• extubating patient without cuff leak
• CO2 capnography
• benefits of NIV
• methemoglobinemia has reduced O2 saturation with normal PaO2

Nephro

• lactic acidosis
• anion gap metabolic acidosis
• low urine output is less than 0.5 cc per kg

Toxicology

• toxic ingestions
• cyanide toxicity leads to elevated lactate
• carbon monoxide toxicity can be diagnosed by ABG

ID

• vibrio vulnificus can be fatal in liver disease patients
• CLABSI
• stress dose steroid
• Covid trials
• MRSA nare test has high NPV

GI

• enteral feeding
• SUPICU: protonix better than placebo
• PEPTIC trial: no difference between protonix and pepcid
• revise trial

Hematology

• transfuse patients with thrombocytopenia prior to CVC placement leads to less bleeding
• tpa contraindications

Trauma

• trauma resuscitation mtp

MSK

• Treat digit gangrene in patients with pressors
• PT OT reduces ICU delirium
• post surgical necrotizing soft tissue infection can have shock and dishwasher fluid appearance

Lecture Notes
