HEMODYNAMIC INSTABILITY

This study aimed to find the safest speed for removing excess fluid from ICU patients whose kidneys have stopped working. Researchers tested three different removal rates on 39 critically ill patients to see which one caused the fewest dangerous drops in blood pressure while stil…

This study tested whether using a special monitor to predict and prevent low blood pressure during major abdominal surgery helps keep the brain's oxygen levels stable. Researchers compared 48 patients who either received this special monitoring or standard care. The goal was to s…

This study compared two common intravenous blood pressure medications, nicardipine and labetalol, in patients recovering from brain surgery for a hemorrhagic (bleeding) stroke. Researchers monitored 30 patients in the ICU for 24 hours to see which drug controlled blood pressure m…

This study tested a specific anesthesia plan for patients aged 60+ undergoing heart surgery. Researchers compared a guided approach using brain wave monitoring to standard care. The goal was to see if the new plan could reduce post-surgery confusion, improve pain control with les…

This study tested whether looking at a mother's neck veins and checking simple heart rate and blood pressure ratios could predict a sudden drop in blood pressure after receiving spinal anesthesia for a planned C-section. Researchers enrolled 60 pregnant women to see if these quic…

This study tested whether a newer high-flow nasal oxygen system works better than standard low-flow oxygen at preventing dangerously low oxygen levels during sedated ERCP procedures. Researchers compared the two methods in 100 adult and elderly patients undergoing this specialize…

This study tested whether using virtual reality (VR) glasses could help reduce pain and keep vital signs stable when a chest tube is removed after open heart surgery. Researchers compared 82 patients who used VR glasses during the procedure to patients who received standard care.…

This study tested whether a sugar-based solution called mannitol could help patients who regularly experience low blood pressure and symptoms during dialysis. Thirty-one adults on long-term dialysis received either mannitol or a placebo during their treatments over four weeks. Re…

This study tested whether applying acupressure (gentle pressure on specific body points) could help reduce anxiety and stabilize blood pressure and heart rate in patients about to undergo bladder removal surgery. Researchers compared real acupressure to a placebo version in 60 pa…

This study aimed to understand how different pressure settings on a breathing machine affect heart function in young children with congenital heart disease. Researchers monitored 58 children under 5 years old who were on ventilators. They carefully adjusted pressure levels and us…

This study looked at how high doses of a common medication (norepinephrine) used to treat septic shock affect the body's smallest blood vessels. Researchers monitored 30 critically ill patients to see if changes in these tiny vessels were linked to survival after 28 days. The goa…
