Journal ArticleDOI
Anemia and blood transfusion in critically ill patients.
Jean Louis Vincent,Konrad Reinhart,Luciano Gattinoni,Lambert Thijs,A. R. Webb,Andreas Meier-Hellmann,Guy Nollet,Daliana Peres-Bota +7 more
TL;DR: This multicenter observational study reveals the common occurrence of anemia and the large use of blood transfusion in critically ill patients and provides evidence of an association between transfusions and diminished organ function as well as between transfusion and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intra-operative gut mucosal hypoperfusion is associated with increased post-operative complications and cost
Michael G. Mythen,A. R. Webb +1 more
TL;DR: A low gastric pHi measured during the intraoperative period in a group of patients undergoing major (mainly cardiovascular) surgery is associated with increased post-operative complications and cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of commonly used clinical indicators of hypovolaemia with gastrointestinal tonometry.
TL;DR: The value of tonometry as an early monitor of hypovolaemia is demonstrated and the shortcomings of other more commonly measured clinical variables are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of gut mucosal hypoperfusion in the pathogenesis of post-operative organ dysfunction.
Michael G. Mythen,A. R. Webb +1 more
TL;DR: The tonometer is commercially available and a practical monitor of gut mucosal perfusion for use in the peri-operative period and the ideal opportunity to audit its introduction is faced, something it has failed to do for other clinical monitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxyethyl starch in balanced electrolyte solution (Hextend)--pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles in healthy volunteers.
Nicholas J. Wilkes,R.L. Woolf,Michael C. Powanda,Tong J. Gan,Samuel J. Machin,A. R. Webb,M Mutch,Elliott Bennett-Guerrero,Michael G. Mythen +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that Hextend® has pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles that are similar to those of other HES.
