1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundGoal-directed blood pressure management in the intensive care unit can improve trauma outcomes but is labor-intensive. Automated critical care systems can deliver scaled interventions to avoid excessive fluid or vasopressor administration. We compared a first-generation automated drug and fluid delivery platform, Precision Automated Critical Care Management (PACC-MAN), to a more refined algorithm, incorporating additional physiologic inputs and therapeutics. We hypothesized that the enhanced algorithm would achieve equivalent resuscitation endpoints with less crystalloid utilization in the setting of distributive shock.

methodsTwelve swine underwent 30% hemorrhage and 30 minutes of aortic occlusion to induce an ischemia-reperfusion injury and distributive shock state. Next, animals were transfused to euvolemia and randomized into a standardized critical care (SCC) of PACC-MAN or an enhanced version (SCC+) for 4.25 hours. SCC+ incorporated lactate and urine output to assess global response to resuscitation and added vasopressin as an adjunct to norepinephrine at certain thresholds. Primary and secondary outcomes were decreased crystalloid administration and time at goal blood pressure, respectively.

resultsWeight-based fluid bolus volume was lower in SCC+ compared with SCC (26.9 mL/kg vs. 67.5 mL/kg, p = 0.02). Cumulative norepinephrine dose required was not significantly different (SCC+: 26.9 μg/kg vs. SCC: 13.76 μg/kg, p = 0.24). Three of 6 animals (50%) in SCC+ triggered vasopressin as an adjunct. Percent time spent between 60 mm Hg and 70 mm Hg, terminal creatinine and lactate, and weight-adjusted cumulative urine output were equivalent.

conclusionRefinement of the PACC-MAN algorithm decreased crystalloid administration without sacrificing time in normotension, reducing urine output, increasing vasopressor support, or elevating biomarkers of organ damage. Iterative improvements in automated critical care systems to achieve target hemodynamics in a distributive-shock model are feasible.
