Objective: To establish current Portuguese critical care practices regarding analgesia, sedation, and delirium based on a comparison between the activities reported and daily clinical practice.
Methods: A national survey was conducted among physicians invited to report their practice toward analgesia, sedation, and delirium in intensive care units. A point prevalence study was performed to analyze daily practices.
Results: A total of 117 physicians answered the survey, and 192 patients were included in the point prevalence study. Survey and point prevalence studies reflect a high sedation assessment (92%; 88.5%), with the Richmond Agitated Sedation Scale being the most reported and used scale (41.7%; 58.2%) and propofol being the most reported and used medication (91.4%; 58.6%). Midazolam prescribing was reported by 68.4% of responders, but a point prevalence study revealed a use of 27.6%.Although 46.4% of responders reported oversedation, this was actually documented in 32% of the patients. The survey reports the daily assessment of pain (92%) using standardized scales (71%). The same was identified in the point prevalence study, with 91.1% of analgesia assessment mainly with the Behavioral Pain Scale. In the survey, opioids were reported as the first analgesic. In clinical practice, acetaminophen was the first option (34.6%), followed by opioids. Delirium assessment was reported by 70% of physicians but was performed in less than 10% of the patients.
Conclusion: The results from the survey did not accurately reflect the common practices in Portuguese intensive care units, as reported in the point prevalence study. Efforts should be made specifically to avoid oversedation and to promote delirium assessment.

Ketamine is unique among anesthetics and analgesics. The drug is a rapid-acting general anesthetic that produces an anesthetic state characterized by profound analgesia, preserved pharyngeal-laryngeal reflexes, normal or slightly enhanced skeletal muscle tone, cardiovascular and respiratory stimulation, and occasionally a transient and minimal respiratory depression. Research has demonstrated the efficacy of its use on anesthesia, pain, palliative care, and intensive care. Recently, it has been used for postoperative and chronic pain, as an adjunct in psychotherapy, as a treatment for depression and posttraumatic stress disorder, as a procedural sedative, and as a treatment for respiratory and/or neurologic clinical conditions. Despite being a safe and widely used drug, many physicians, such as intensivists and those practicing in emergency care, are not aware of the current clinical applications of ketamine. The objective of this narrative literature review is to present the theoretical and practical aspects of clinical applications of ketamine in intensive care unit and emergency department settings.

Objective: To describe and compare the structure of Argentinean intensive care units that completed the "self-assessment survey of intensive care units" developed by the Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Intensiva.
Methods: An observational crosssectional study was conducted using an online voluntary survey through the Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Intensiva member database and other social media postings. Answers received between December 2018 and July 2020 were analyzed. Descriptive statistics and nonparametric tests were used.
Results: A total of 392 surveys were received, and 244 were considered for the analysis. Seventy-seven percent (187/244) belonged to adult intensive care units, and 23% (57/244) belonged to pediatric intensive care units. The overall completion rate was 76%. The sample included 2,567 ICU beds (adult: 1,981; pediatric: 586). We observed a clear concentration of intensive care units in the Central and Buenos Aires regions of Argentina. The median number of beds was 10 (interquartile range 7 - 15).The median numbers of multiparameter monitors, mechanical ventilators, and pulse oximeters were 1 per bed with no regional or intensive care unit type differences (adult versus pediatric). Although our sample showed that the pediatric intensive care units had a higher mechanical ventilation/bed ratio than the adult intensive care units, this finding was not linearly correlated.
Conclusion: Argentina has a notable concentration of critical care beds and better structural complexity in the Buenos Aires and Centro regions for both adult and pediatric intensive care units. In addition, a lack of accurate data reported from the intensive care unit structure and resources was observed. Further improvement opportunities are required to allocate intensive care unit resources at the institutional and regional levels.
目的:描述和比较阿根廷重症监护病房的结构,完成“重症监护病房自我评估调查”由阿根廷重症监护协会制定。方法:通过Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Intensiva会员数据库和其他社交媒体帖子进行在线自愿调查,进行观察性横断面研究。对2018年12月至2020年7月收到的答案进行了分析。采用描述性统计和非参数检验。结果:共收到问卷392份,其中244份纳入分析。成人重症监护病房占77%(187/244),儿科重症监护病房占23%(57/244)。总体完成率为76%。样本包括2567张ICU床位(成人:1981张;儿科:586)。我们观察到重症监护病房明显集中在阿根廷中部和布宜诺斯艾利斯地区。床位数中位数为10张(四分位数间距7 - 15)。多参数监护仪、机械呼吸机和脉搏血氧仪的中位数为每张病床1台,没有地区或重症监护病房类型差异(成人与儿科)。虽然我们的样本显示儿科重症监护病房的机械通气/床位比高于成人重症监护病房,但这一发现并不是线性相关的。结论:阿根廷的布宜诺斯艾利斯和中部地区的成人和儿童重症监护病房的重症监护床位明显集中,结构更复杂。此外,观察到缺乏来自重症监护病房结构和资源的准确数据。需要有进一步改进的机会,以便在机构和区域两级分配重症监护病房资源。

Objective: To assess euthyroid sick syndrome as a prognostic factor in patients in the intensive care unit; to detect factors that may affect mortality; and to develop an equation to calculate death probability.
Methods: This was a longitudinal, observational, nonconcurrent cohort study developed in the intensive care unit of Fundação Santa Casa de Misericórdia do Pará. One hundred adults with no prior documented endocrinopathy were submitted to a 20mL blood sample collection for the measurement of thyroid stimulating hormone, free tetraiodothyronine, free triiodothyronine and reverse triiodothyronine.
Results: Most patients were female, aged 20 to 29 years. Most patients who died were older (median age of 48 years), and euthyroid sick syndrome was present in 97.5% of them. Euthyroid sick syndrome was related to death, comorbidities, age and length of stay in the intensive care unit (median of 7.5 days).There was an association between lower thyroid stimulating hormone and death. Patients with free triiodothyronine levels below 2.9pg/mL were more likely to die; reverse triiodothyronine rates were above 0.2ng/mL in those who died. Free triiodothyronine had greater sensitivity and accuracy, and reverse triiodothyronine had greater specificity to predict mortality. Based on the results and cutoff points, a multiple logistic regression formula was developed to calculate the probability of death.
Conclusion: The main limitation of this study is the fact that it was conducted in a reference hospital for maternal and child care; therefore, there was a greater number of female patients and, consequently, a sampling bias existed. However, opportune measurement of free and reverse triiodothyronine levels in critical patients and application of the proposed equation are suggested.
目的:评价甲亢病综合征在重症监护病房患者中的预后影响因素;发现可能影响死亡率的因素;并建立一个计算死亡概率的方程。方法:这是一项纵向、观察性、非并发队列研究,在圣之家Misericórdia do par医院的重症监护室开展。100名既往无内分泌疾病记录的成年人接受20mL血样,用于测量促甲状腺激素、游离四碘甲状腺原氨酸、游离三碘甲状腺原氨酸和反三碘甲状腺原氨酸。结果:患者以女性为主,年龄在20 ~ 29岁。大多数死亡患者年龄较大(中位年龄48岁),其中97.5%存在甲状腺功能亢进综合征。甲状腺功能亢进综合征与死亡、合并症、年龄和在重症监护病房的住院时间(中位数为7.5天)有关。较低的促甲状腺激素水平与死亡之间存在关联。游离三碘甲状腺原氨酸水平低于2.9pg/mL的患者更容易死亡;三碘甲状腺原氨酸逆转率高于0.2ng/mL。游离三碘甲状腺原氨酸在预测死亡率方面具有更高的敏感性和准确性,而反向三碘甲状腺原氨酸在预测死亡率方面具有更高的特异性。根据结果和截止点,建立了一个多元逻辑回归公式来计算死亡概率。结论:本研究的主要局限性是在妇幼保健参考医院进行;因此,女性患者较多,存在抽样偏倚。然而,建议在危重患者中适当测量游离和反向三碘甲状腺原氨酸水平并应用所提出的方程。

Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome is a rare clinical and radiological syndrome characterized by vasogenic edema of the white matter of the occipital and parietal lobes, which are usually symmetrical, resulting from a secondary manifestation of acute dysfunction of the posterior cerebrovascular system. We describe a case of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome secondary to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a 9-year-old boy who developed acute hypoxemic respiratory failure and required assisted mechanical ventilation. The child developed multisystem inflammatory syndrome, and he was monitored in the pediatric intensive care unit and was provided mechanical ventilation and vasoactive agents for hemodynamic support. Additionally, he developed pulmonary and extrapulmonary clinical manifestations along with neuropsychiatric manifestations that required close follow-up and were verified using brain magnetic resonance imaging for timely intervention. Currently, there are few reports of children with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome associated with multisystem inflammatory syndrome.

Objective: To investigate the association between noninvasive ventilation delivery devices and the incidence of nasal septum injury in preterm infants.
Methods: This retrospective singlecenter cohort study included preterm infants supported by noninvasive ventilation. The incidence of nasal injury was compared among three groups according to the noninvasive ventilation delivery device (G1 - nasal mask; G2 - binasal prongs; and G3, rotation of nasal mask with prongs). Nasal injury was classified according to the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel as stages 1 - 4. Multivariate regression analyses were performed to estimate relative risks to identify possible predictors associated with medical device-related injuries.
Results: Among the 300 infants included in the study, the incidence of medical device-related injuries in the rotating group was significantly lower than that in the continuous mask or prong groups (n = 68; 40.48%; p value < 0.01).The basal prong group presented more stage 2 injuries (n = 15; 55.56%; p < 0.01). Staying ≥ 7 days in noninvasive ventilation was associated with a higher frequency of medical device-related injuries, regardless of device (63.81%; p < 0.01). Daily increments in noninvasive ventilation increased the risk for nasal injury by 4% (95%CI 1.02 - 1.06; p < 0.01). Higher birth weight indicated protection against medical device-related injuries. Each gained gram represented a decrease of 1% in the risk of developing nasal septum injury (RR: 0.99; 95%CI 0.99 - 0.99; p < 0.04).
Conclusion: Rotating nasal masks with nasal prongs reduces the incidence of moderate to severe nasal injury in comparison with single devices. The addition of days using noninvasive ventilation seems to contribute to medical device-related injuries, and higher birth weight is a protective factor.

As complicações neuromusculares são comuns nos doentes críticos e podem ser graves e persistentes, com repercussões a longo prazo tanto na funcionalidade quanto na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. A fraqueza muscular adquirida na unidade de terapia intensiva (UTI) é multifatorial, com causas diretas, como inflamação sistêmica, e indiretas, como o tempo em ventilação mecânica, as quais contribuem para as complicações relacionadas com o imobilismo. Com isso, a reabilitação precoce desses indivíduos possui importante papel em reduzir os efeitos deletérios associados à permanência na UTI e em aprimorar a funcionalidade desses pacientes no momento da alta hospitalar.(1) Luiz Alberto Forgiarini Júnior1 , Brenda Lilja da Fontoura2 , Desirée Ribeiro Kobylinski2 , Soraia Genebra Ibrahim Forgiarini3 , Vinicius Maldaner4
目的:翻译、跨文化适应和评估巴西重症监护功能康复结果指标的临床特性,以评估入住重症监护病房的患者的功能。方法:翻译和跨文化适应的过程包括:初译、综合、反译、专家委员会评审和前测。分析两名物理治疗师评估同一组患者(n = 35)的内部和内部信度和一致性。评估由每位治疗师独立完成,对其他专业人员分配的分数不知情。由审查委员会进行定性分析,专家们改编并综合了葡萄牙语翻译的重症监护功能康复结果测量。结果:重症监护功能康复结果测量量表的最初巴西译本之间存在一致。对原始版本和翻译版本之间的概念、习语、语义和实验等效性进行了评估,产生了最终的巴西版本,称为Medida de Resultado da reabilita o functional em Cuidados intenvos。临床特性的评估显示了高度的一致性和可靠性,因为所有的类内相关系数都在0.75以上。总体类内相关系数为0.89。结论:经过对巴西葡萄牙语的翻译和跨文化适应,用于评估入住重症监护病房的患者功能的危重病功能康复结果测量量表的翻译版本可以在巴西可靠地使用,并提供了出色的翻译可信度的证据。

Objective: To test whether tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) after a venous occlusion test estimates central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2).
Methods: Observational study in intensive care unit patients. Tissue oxygen saturation was monitored (InSpectra Tissue Spectrometer Model 650, Hutchinson Technology Inc., MN, USA) with a multiprobe (15/25mm) in the thenar position. A venous occlusion test in volunteers was applied in the upper arm to test the tolerability and pattern of StO2 changes during the venous occlusion test. A sphygmomanometer cuff was inflated to a pressure 30mmHg above diastolic pressure until StO2 reached a plateau and deflated to 0mmHg. Tissue oxygen saturation parameters were divided into resting StO2 (r-StO2) and minimal StO2 (m-StO2) at the end of the venous occlusion test. In patients, the cuff was inflated to a pressure 30mmHg above diastolic pressure for 5 min (volunteers' time derived) or until a StO2 plateau was reached. Tissue oxygen saturation parameters were divided into r-StO2, m-StO2, and the mean time that StO2 reached ScvO2. The StO2 value at the mean time was compared to ScvO2.
Results: All 9 volunteers tolerated the venous occlusion test. The time for tolerability or the StO2 plateau was 7 ± 1 minutes. We studied 22 patients. The mean time for StO2 equalized ScvO2 was 100 sec and 95 sec (15/25mm probes). The StO2 value at 100 sec ([100-StO2] 15mm: 74 ± 7%; 25mm: 74 ± 6%) was then compared with ScvO2 (75 ± 6%). The StO2 value at 100 sec correlated with ScvO2 (15 mm: R2 = 0.63, 25mm: R2 = 0.67, p < 0.01) without discrepancy (Bland Altman).
Conclusion: Central venous oxygen saturation can be estimated from StO2 during a venous occlusion test.
