Resumen
Critical care medicine has existed in the world in a recognisable form for about 70years,beginning with the first description of an “anaesthesiologic observation unit” developed for the 1952–1953 Copenhagen poliomyelitis epidemic. Within a very short time, other European and North American reports appeared describing upgraded recovery rooms treating patients with coma, shock or poisoning, and resuscitation emergencies. These new hospital services had elements of triage, rapid treatment and concentrated care, and were soon accommodating an ever larger count of patients with higher levels of acuity within a system formerly designed to care for stable patients.

Resumen
Malignancies are becoming increasingly common, especially as the population ages, and patients with cancer are likely to represent an increasing proportion of ICU populations. Advances in oncological and supportive care have led to improved prognosis and extension of survival time in patients with cancer. The National Institute Cancer located in Mexico City has an oncological ICU with 6 beds. During the biennium 2008-2009, 573 patients with cancer were admitted to the ICU. The mean age was 51 ± 16.36 years and 58.6% were women. The length of stay in the ICU was 2 days (interquartile range; 1-5). The 71.6% were surgical patients. The mortality rate was 15.9%. Patients with hemato-oncological cancer had higher ICU mortality rate than subgroup of critically ill patients with solid tumors (39.5% versus 11.9%). The course of organ dysfunction over first days of life-sustaining treatment before admission to ICU could be useful for physicians who treat critically ill cancer patients to detect patients who should be admitted to ICU to try to avoid the progression to multiple organ dysfunction. On the other hand, admission to the ICU should be offered to patients with newly diagnosed cancer and acute life-threatening cancer related events. The critical care of patients with cancer contribute and support to continue the fight against cancer.

Resumen
Introduction: Critical Care Outreach Team is established to timely identify sick patients outside ICU and initiate proper therapy before they deteriorate. This study was performed to evaluate the effect of CCOT in a tertiary center in Nepal. Methods: This is a before-after comparative study conducted in a level II postoperative ward in Nepal. CCOT was established which comprised of an Intensivist, ICU resident and critical care nurse. The outcome of patients three months before and three months after the establishment of CCOT were compared. Results: In pre-CCOT period, there were 582 admissions, among which 538 (92.4%) patients were admitted for postoperative care and 27 (4.63%) patients were critically ill and fifteen were intubated. Among 582 patients, 531 got better and transferred out but 9 of them got readmitted again within 48 hours. In the post-CCOT period, there were 561 admissions, among which 512 (91.2%) were admitted for postoperative care and 22 (3.92%) were critically ill and only 10 of them got intubated and shifted to ICU. Among 561 patients, 491 improved and were transferred out and 7 got readmitted only after 96 hours. Another 10 patients goals of care were discussed and DNI/DNR order instituted and end of life care was given for them who later expired at Postoperative ward. Conclusions: This shows that CCOT intervention outside ICU is important to reduce ICU admissions, decrease early readmission and clarify goals of care prior to ICU.

Resumen
• Background Sleep deprivation is common in critically ill patients and may have long-term effects on health outcomes and patients’ morbidity. Clustering nocturnal care has been recommended to improve patients’ sleep.• Objectives To (1) examine the frequency, pattern, and types of nocturnal care interactions with patients in 4 critical care units; (2) analyze the relationships among these interactions and patients’ variables (age, sex, acuity) and site of admission to the intensive care unit; and (3) analyze the differences in patterns of nocturnal care activities among the 4 units.• Methods A randomized retrospective review of the medical records of 50 patients was used to record care activities from 7 PM to 7 AM in 4 critical care units.• Results Data consisted of interactions during 147 nights. The mean number of care interactions per night was 42.6 (SD 11.3). Interactions were most frequent at midnight and least frequent at 3 AM. Only 9 uninterrupted periods of 2 to 3 hours were available for sleep (6% of 147 nights studied). Frequency of interactions correlated significantly with patients’ acuity scores (r = 0.32, all Ps < .05). A sleep-promoting intervention was documented for only 1 of the 147 nights, and 62% of routine daily baths were provided between 9 PM and 6 AM.• Conclusions The high frequency of nocturnal care interactions left patients few uninterrupted periods for sleep. Interventions to expand the period around 3 AM when interactions are least common could increase opportunities for sleep.

Resumen
Background: Patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) may face terminal illness situations, which may lead to death. In this case, the role of critical care nurses shifts from life-sustaining to end-of-life care (EOLC). Nurses’ involvement in EOLC varies between countries, even in one country due to differences in religion, culture, organization, laws, cases and patient quality. In Indonesia, research on EOLC in ICU has not been carried out.Purpose: This study aimed to explore the experiences of critical care nurses in providing EOLC.Methods: A qualitative study with a phenomenological approach was conducted. Ten critical care nurses having the experiences of caring for dying patients were recruited through a purposive sampling technique for in-depth interviews. Manual content analysis was used to identify themes.Results: The results of the study found five themes, including the challenge of communication with the family, support for the family, support for the patient, discussion and decision making, and nurses’ emotions. Conclusion: Most of EOLC provided by critical care nurses was focused on the family. They had some challenges in communication and decision making. Nurses need to get training and education about how to care for patients towards the end of life.

Resumen
Demonstrating respect is the hallmark of excellence in caring for critically ill patients and their families. Understanding the meaning of respect and the strategies that foster it are foundational for nurses as interdisciplinary healthcare professionals. Basically, respect is the act of esteeming another. Demonstrated by word and deed, it is fostered by attending to the whole person by involving the patient and family in decision making, providing family-centered care, bearing witness, and adopting a broader perspective marked by cultural humility. By creating processes that ensure everyone’s views are heard, healthcare professionals as well as patients and their families are supported. One key process, known as the “Council Process,” shifts dialogue from telling to discovering, from judging to inquiring; it neutralizes conjecture, fosters the acceptance of moral conflict, and protects the integrity of healthcare professionals and their organizations. Acknowledging respect as a foundational ethical principle is the first step toward relationally rich healthcare environments for patients, families, and professionals.

Resumen
Veterinary professionals in emergency and critical care see the sickest and most unstable patients, and it is understandable that nutrition is not at the forefront of their minds. This article demonstrates why nutrition is important in the most critical patients, and why studies show it is no longer advisable to delay assisted nutrition. Absence of nutrition in the critical patient leads to muscle catabolism, protein deficiencies and increased risk of sepsis. There are options for enteral or parenteral nutrition, and various feeding tubes that can be used depending on the status of the patient. Both underfeeding and overfeeding can be detrimental to the critical patient; requirements should be calculated for each patient on an individual basis, considering the dietary requirements and risks associated with each presentation and disease process. There are also changes that can be made in the hospital to encourage patients to eat voluntarily; it is important not to forget holistic care in the critical patient.

Resumen
Abstract Introduction: Drug-induced thrombocytopenia in the critically ill is documented in the literature with limited frequency. Implicated agents are antiepileptics, anticoagulants, antiarrhythmics, histamine receptor antagonists, and antimicrobials .Piperacillin has only rarely been implicated as a cause of thrombocytopenia, and there is only limited evidence that this complication is caused by immune mechanisms. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of patients admitted during a 6-month period to determine the frequency of and potential risk factors associated with thrombocytopenia, and the association of acquired thrombocytopenia with the use of piperacillin ICU versus non ICU patients. Results: Data were collected for 154 patients (M:71, F:83),), admitted to the ICU and Non-ICU setting. 55% of the patients were more than 65 years of age. Platelet drop occurred in 123 patients. Thrombocytopenic patients had a longer ICU stay (11.2 vs 5.6 days) and greater mortality (9% vs 3%) than nonthrombocytopenic patients .The patients developed thrombocytopenia as follows:Mild(100–150k): 22 pts-(15%) ; Moderate(50–100k): 7 pts-(5%) ;and Severe(<50k): 4 pts- (3%). The other drugs during hospitalization were heparin (30%), ceftazidime(11%), famotidine(9%), bactrim(0.3%),esomeprazole (11%), aspirin(18%). Patients received piperacillin for mean duration of 9 days. In patients with thrombocytopenia, the platelet levels dropped by a mean of 15.15% on Day 2 from pretreatment values (range, 2% to 61%) while they were receiving piperacillin. On average, the nadir platelet count was reached 7 days after treatment with piperacillin was initiated (range, 2 to14days). The median time required for platelet recovery was 8.4 days (range 5.6 in ICU to 11.2 in Non-ICU pts).Bleeding was unusual in patients with thrombocytopenia. Platelet transfusions failed to elevate platelet counts. Discussion: Thrombocytopenia occurs in 23–63% of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Factors associated with the disorder in these patients include sepsis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), blood transfusions, central catheters, and drugs, some of which may have a significant effect on morbidity and mortality. The major mechanisms of drug-induced thrombocytopenia are immune-mediated platelet destruction and concentration-dependent bone marrow suppression. Bone marrow toxicity, mainly neutropenia, has been described as an uncommon secondary effect of most beta-lactams, and it is usually related to large cumulative doses. Conclusion: Thrombocytopenia is associated with an increased ICU stay and increased mortality. Thrombocytopenic events associated with antimicrobial agents in the ICU may warrant further investigation because of the increased administration of these drugs to combat more virulent bacterial strains.
