Pulmonary and systemic bacterial co-infections in severe RSV bronchiolitis.
Duttweiler L, Nadal D, Frey B.
Department of Paediatric Intensive Care and Neonatology, University Children's Hospital, Zurich, Switzerland.
In 127 infants admitted to intensive care for RSV bronchiolitis, concomitant bacterial sepsis was a rare event. However, in the subgroup of intubated patients the incidence of bacterial pneumonia was 43.9% (95% CI 31.0-56.8%), half community acquired and half nosocomial. As clinical signs are not helpful in identifying these patients, tracheal aspirates have to be investigated microbiologically on a routine basis in order to start antibiotics in time.

Vasospasm after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Oyama K, Criddle L.
neuro/trauma intensive care unit at Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Ore, USA.
Despite every effort, 13% of patients with SAH still die or are permanently disabled as a consequence of vasospasm. Optimal outcome after aneurysmal SAH depends on careful assessment and management of patients throughout the course of hospitalization. Critical care nurses play a crucial role in this process. Efforts continue to understand the cascade of events that lead to cerebral vasospasm and to develop more effective treatments. Many therapies, both traditional and new, are being investigated to reduce the incidence of symptomatic vasospasm and improve the lives of patients who experience this devastating condition.

Pass the salt: indications for and implications of using hypertonic saline.
Johnson AL, Criddle LM.
trauma/neuro intensive care unit at Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, Ore, USA.
Sodium is the most abundant extracellular ion. Historically, therapy with hypertonic saline was widely used for a variety of conditions. Currently, there are 3 primary indications for its use in critical care: hyponatremia, volume resuscitation, and brain injury. SIADH and CSW syndrome may require sodium replacement, but most cases of hyponatremia can be managed without administration of hypertonic saline. Studies of use of hypertonic saline in hypovolemia and brain injury are promising, but additional research is needed to better define optimal dosing regimens and to determine the relative risks associated with hypertonic saline versus conventional treatment for the management of patients with head injuries and for volume resuscitation in shock states.
