Mashup Score: 2Mechanical Power in Pressure-Controlled Ventilation: A... : Critical Care Explorations - 15 day(s) ago
pressure-volume loop during the respiratory cycle. The second involves using various algebraic equations to estimate MP. However, almost all calculations are either complex or not reliable compared with the geometric method, considered the gold standard. This study aimed to develop an easy to use, reliable equation for bedside calculation of MP and to compare its accuracy with other existing equations for calculating MP. METHODS: In a preliminary study, we measured MP in 56 cases who were mechanically ventilated and without spontaneous breathing efforts. The measurements were done at the ICU of a single university medical center in the Netherlands. RESULTS: We found that the MP can be accurately calculated using an equation that incorporates the plateau pressure in 56 cases in 42 patients. The MP estimated with our new proposed equation (MP calculated using plateau pressure) correlated well with the reference value of MP with a bias of 0.2 J/min. The 95% limits of agreement (LoAs) were

Mashup Score: 4The green ICU: how to interpret green? A multiple perspective approach - Critical Care - 16 day(s) ago
Mitigating environmental impacts is an urgent challenge supported by (scientific) intensive care societies worldwide. However, making green choices without compromising high-quality care for critically ill patients may be challenging. The current paper describes a three-step approach towards green intensive care units. Starting with the measurement of environmental sustainability, intensive care units can identify hotspots, quantify the environmental impacts of products and procedures, and monitor sustainable progress. Subsequently, a multidisciplinary approach is proposed to improve environmental sustainability, including a collaboration of procurement specialists and healthcare professionals, using co-creation and green teams as efficient grassroots change agents. A context-specific approach for enhancing sustainable healthcare practices is key in order to fit local regulatory requirements and create support of professionals. A final step is to share results and create momentum, incl
