Background: Septic shock patients have tendencies toward impairment in cerebral autoregulation and imbalanced cerebral oxygen metabolism. Tissue Oxygen Saturation (StO2) and Transcranial Doppler (TCD) monitoring were undertaken to observe the variations of cerebral hemodynamic indices and cerebral/peripheral StO2 to find risk factors that increase the sepsis-associated delirium (SAD).Materials and Methods: The research cohort was chosen from septic shock patients received in the Department of Critical Care Medicine, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University between May 2018 and March 2019. These patients were separated into two groups, SAD and non-SAD as assessed by using the Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU). Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of peripheral StO2, fluctuations in regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2), cerebral vascular automatic regulation function [Transient Hyperemic Response Ratio (THRR) index], cerebral hemodynamic index, organ function indicators, blood gas analysis indices, and patient characteristics.Results: About 39% of the patients (20/51) suffered from SAD. Nearly 43% of the patients died within 28 days of admission (22/51). Individuals in the SAD cohort needed a longer period of mechanical ventilation [5 (95% CI 2, 6) vs. 1 days (95% CI 1, 4), p = 0.015] and more time in ICU [9 (95% CI 5, 20) vs. 5 days (95% CI 3, 9), p = 0.042]; they also experienced more deaths over the 28-day period (65 vs. 29%, p = 0.011). The multivariate regression analysis indicated that independent variables associated with SAD were THRR index [odds ratio (OR) = 5.770, 95% CI: 1.222–27.255; p = 0.027] and the mean value for rSO2 was < 55% (OR = 3.864, 95% CI: 1.026–14.550; p = 0.046).Conclusion: Independent risk factors for SAD were mean cerebral oxygen saturation below 55% and cerebrovascular dysregulation (THRR < 1.09).

Abstract Background Patients with septic shock are prone to have impaired cerebral autoregulation and to have an imbalance in cerebral oxygen metabolism. Transcranial doppler (TCD) and tissue oxygen saturation monitoring were performed to observe the changes in cerebral hemodynamic indices of the middle cerebral artery, and in cerebral and peripheral tissue oxygen saturation (StO 2 ) to identify risk factors for sepsis-associated delirium (SAD). Methods Patients with septic shock that were admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from May 2018 to March 2019 were prospectively enrolled, which were divided into an SAD group and a non-SAD group according to the Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU). Both groups were compared with respect to patient characteristics, blood gas analysis indexes, organ function indicators, cerebral hemodynamic index, cerebrovascular automatic regulation function (transient hyperemia response rate, THRR index), the changes in regional cerebral oxygen saturation, and peripheral tissue oxygen saturation. Results The incidence of SAD was 39% (20/51). The overall 28-day mortality rate was 43% (22/51). Compared with the non-SAD group, patients in the SAD group required a longer mechanical ventilation time (5 days [95% confidence interval (CI) 2, 6] vs 1day [95% CI 1, 4], p=0.015) and ICU stay (9 days [95% CI 5, 20] vs 5 days [95% CI 3, 9], p=0.042) and has a higher 28-day mortality rate(65% vs 29%, p=0.011).Multivariate regression analysis showed that the THRR index (OR=5.770, 95% CI:1.222-27.255; p=0.027)and mean value of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO 2 ) <55% (OR=3.864, 95% CI:1.026-14.550;p=0.046) were independent risk factors for SAD. Conclusions SAD has a high incidence in septic patients and is associated with poor prognosis. Our results provide a clinical basis for improving early detection and treatment of SAD.

Background Growing evidence suggests that the microvascular dysfunction is the key element of the pathogenesis of septic shock. This study's purpose was to explore whether the outcome of septic shock patients after early resuscitation using early goal-directed therapy is related to their muscle tissue oxygenation. Methods Tissue oxygen saturation (Sto2) was monitored in septic shock patients using a tissue spectrometer (InSpectra Model 325; Hutchinson Technology, Hutchinson, MN). For the purpose of this retrospective study, the Sto2 values were collected at the first measurement done after the macrohemodynamic variables (mean arterial pressure, urine output, central venous saturation in oxygen) were optimized. Results After the hemodynamic variables were corrected, no difference was observed between the nonsurvivors and survivors, with the exception of pulse oximetry saturation (94% [92-97%] vs. 97% [94-99%], P = 0.04). The Sto2 values were significantly lower in the nonsurvivors than in the survivors (73% [68-82%] vs. 84% [81-90%], P = 0.02). No correlations were found between the Sto2 and Spo2 (P = 0.7). Conclusions In septic shock patients, tissue oxygen saturation below 78% is associated with increased mortality at day 28. Further investigations are required to determine whether the correction of an impaired level of tissue oxygen saturation may improve the outcome of these patients.

IntroductionThe use of non-invasive vascular and perfusion diagnostics are an important part of assessing lower extremity ulceration and amputation risk in patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods for detecting impaired microvascular vasodilatory function in patients with diabetes may have the potential to identify sites at risk of ulceration prior to clinically identifiable signs. Spatial frequency domain imaging (SFDI) uses patterned near-infrared and visible light spectroscopy to determine tissue oxygen saturation and hemoglobin distribution within the superficial and deep dermis, showing distinct microcirculatory and oxygenation changes that occur prior to neuropathic and neuroischemic ulceration.Research designs and methods35 patients with diabetes mellitus and a history of diabetic foot ulceration were recruited for monthly imaging with SFDI. Two patients who ulcerated during the year-long longitudinal study were selected for presentation of their clinical course alongside the dermal microcirculation biomarkers from SFDI.ResultsPatient 1 developed a neuropathic ulcer portended by a focal increase in tissue oxygen saturation and decrease in superficial papillary hemoglobin concentration 3 months prior. Patient 2 developed bilateral neuroischemic ulcers showing decreased tissue oxygen saturation and increased superficial papillary and deep dermal reticular hemoglobin concentrations.ConclusionsWounds of different etiology show unique dermal microcirculatory changes prior to gross ulceration. Before predictive models can be developed from SFDI, biomarker data must be correlated with the clinical course of patients who ulcerate while being followed longitudinally.Trial registration numberNCT03341559.
