Assessment of Oxidative Stress in Septic and Obese Patients Using Markers of Oxidation-reduction Potential
(2015)Background/ Aim: The novel static (sORP) and capacity (cORP) oxidation-reduction potential markers were examined for assessing oxidative stress in plasma of patients with sepsis. Moreover, the possible effect of obesity-induced ... -
Effect of pravastatin on the frequency of ventilator-associated pneumonia and on intensive care unit mortality: Open-label, randomized study
(2011)Objective: To investigate whether the use of pravastatin reduces the frequency of ventilator-associated pneumonia and whether it is related to favorable outcomes in critical care patients. Design: Two-center, two-arm, ... -
New insights into the mechanisms involved in B-type natriuretic peptide elevation and its prognostic value in septic patients
(2014)Introduction: Elevated plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in patients with critical sepsis (severe sepsis and septic shock) may indicate septic cardiomyopathy. However, multiple heterogeneous conditions may ... -
VENOUS OXYGEN SATURATION AND LACTATE GRADIENT FROM SUPERIOR VENA CAVA TO PULMONARY ARTERY IN PATIENTS WITH SEPTIC SHOCK
(2009)Monitoring of central venous oxygen saturation (S(cv)O(2)) is considered comparable with mixed venous oxygen saturation (S(v)O(2)) in the initial resuscitation phase of septic shock. Our aim was to assess their agreement ...
