  2. Anatomy & Physiology Review Blood Flow in the Heart • From the body • Right side of the Heart • To the lungs for Oxygenation • Air in via trachea • Bronchus • Bronchioles • Alveoli • Capillaries • Oxygen in • Carbon Dioxide out • Left side of the Heart • Out the aorta www.lidco.com

  3. Anatomy & Physiology Review Cardiac Cycle Diastole – relaxation or filling • Preload coming into right side of the heart • 70% of blood flows into the ventricles passively • Other 30% from atrial kick Systole – contraction or pumping • Atrial Systole = Ventricular Diastole • 30% of blood flows into the ventricles from the atrial contraction • Ventricular Systole • How well can the heart pump – Ejection or Stroke Volume • What is the heart pumping against - SVR Anatomy & Physiology Review www.lidco.com

  4. Cardiac Output • CO = SV x HR • Cardiac output is the volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute. For an average size of adult (70 kg) at rest this would be about 5 liters/min. During severe exercise it can increase to over 30 liters/min. • Cardiac output is frequently necessary to assess the state of a patient's circulation. The simplest measurements, such as heart rate and blood pressure, may be adequate for many patients, but if there is a cardiovascular abnormality then more detailed measurements are needed. www.lidco.com

  5. Hemodynamic Monitoring • Hemodynamic Monitoring is an important aspect of patient care in: • Operating Rooms • Critical Care Units • Hemodynamic Monitoring ranges from: • Non-Invasive Invasive • EKG NIBP Arterial Line LiDCO CVP PA catheter www.lidco.com

  6. Functional Hemodynamic Monitoring Transpulmonary Thermodilution (TPTD) – Based on the Stewart-Hamilton equation • LiDCOplus • Pulse Power analysis to derive Stroke Volume • Calibrated with Bolus dilution of lithium • PiCCO • Pulse contour analysis • Temperature change sensed by thermistor-tipped arterial catheter www.lidco.com

  7. Functional Hemodynamic Monitoring • Non-Calibrated • LiDCOrapid • Pulse Power analysis to derive Stroke Volume • Same algorithm as the LiDCOplus • FloTrac • Proprietary sensor attached to arterial line • Algorithm applied to analysis has been changed www.lidco.com

  8. Hemodynamic Monitoring including: • Cardiac Output • Cardiac Index • SVR • Stroke Volume • Blood Pressure • DO2 • Oxygen Consumption • Preload Indicators www.lidco.com

  9. Cardiac Output • Ways to clinically determine Cardiac Output: • Dilution method • Thermodilution • Green Dye • Lithium Dilution • Arterial Wave Form Analysis • Blood sample to calculate the Fick equation • Continuous Cardiac Output • TEE/EsopheagealDoppler www.lidco.com

  10. Continuous Cardiac Output? Sampling to get a 3 to 5 minute average • PA catheter Beat to Beat Continuous • Arterial wave form analysis www.lidco.com

  11. Beat-to-Beat Continuous Cardiac Output Pulse Power waveform analysis continuously assesses the patient's hemodynamic status by analyzing and processing the arterial pressure signal obtained from the primary blood pressure monitor. • 0 www.lidco.com

  12. CO = SV x HR Stroke Volume The volume of blood per stroke of the heart Effected by: Amount of Blood coming into the heart – Preload How well the heart works – Contractility How much pressure or resistance the heart has to work against – Afterload www.lidco.com

  13. CO = SV x HR Stroke Volume SV = Preload + Afterload + Contractility • Preload – volume • Afterload – resistance (SVR) • Contractility – Muscle compliance (EF) www.lidco.com

  14. Ventricular Preload and Fluid Responsiveness • Fluid Resuscitation primary treatment of many shock states • Fluid Resuscitation is not without risk • Less than 50% of patients respond to a fluid bolus. • The heart performs more efficiently when appropriately filled. • The term preload refers to maximum stretch on the heart's muscle fibers at the end of diastolic filling. The degree of stretch is determined by the volume of blood contained in the ventricle at that time. www.lidco.com

  15. Ventricular Preload and Fluid Responsiveness Commonly used static preload measurement are not sensitive or specific predictors of a patient's ability to respond to fluid bolus • CVP • PAOP Functional Hemodynamic Indices are more sensitive and specific predictors of fluid responsiveness • Reflect the effect of positive pressure ventilation on preload and SV • Pulse Pressure Variation • Stroke Volume Variation • Systolic Pressure Variation www.lidco.com

  16. FunctionalHemodynamics Bridges, Elizabeth J. Arterial Pressure – Based Stroke Volume and Functional Hemodynamic Monitoring. Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, March/April 2008;23(2): pp 105-112 www.lidco.com

  17. Preload Systolic and Pulse pressure variation can be measured • intermittently from the arterial line via the beside monitor • continuously using • PPV, SVV or SPV • LiDCO system – plus or rapid • FloTrac • SVV www.lidco.com

  18. Preload Indicators • Systolic pressure variation (SPV) may reflect variations in pleural pressure and changing LVSV. PPV reflects only changes in transmural aortic pressure and therefore changes in LVSV on a beat-to-beat basis. • Michard et al (1999) found PPV gave a more accurate measure of cardiac index when compared to SPV, which it turn was a better measure than CVP and PAW. • PPV was superior to SPV in predicting preload responsiveness proving to have better precision with less variance. Note: SPV and PPV do not require the patient to be in apnoea. In fact they depend on positive pressure breathing. www.lidco.com

  19. Best Preload Responsiveness - PPV Michard F., Boussat S, Chemla D, et al. Relation between respiratory changes in arterial pulse pressure and fluid responsiveness in septic patients with acute circulatory failure. American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine. Jul 2000;162(1):134-138 www.lidco.com

  20. Hemodynamic Monitoring • Arterial Waveform Analysis • Preload indicator - looks at the variation from inspiration to expiration of the patient • PPV - Pulse Pressure Variation • Greater than 10 to 13% patient preload responsive • SVV - Stroke Volume Variation • Greater than 10 to 13% patient preload responsive • SPV - Systolic Pressure Variation • Greater than 5mmHg patient preload responsive www.lidco.com

  21. Frank Starling’s Law • The greater the ventricle is filled during diastole, the more the muscle fibres are stretched, the greater is the force of contraction. • This is true to a defined point of stretch above which point contraction force will not increase further. www.lidco.com

  22. Frank Starling Curve Patient A is preload responsive • On steep part of curve • Set preload results in Significant increase in SV Patient B is not preload responsive • An equal preloading does not result in a great increase in SV • This patient does not require fluid resuscitation Patient B  SV  SV  Preload Patient A  SV  Preload www.lidco.com

  23. Case Studies Pulse Pressure Variation of 65% • After ½ liter of volume down to 24% • After another ½ liter of volume down to 10% Pulse Pressure Variation of 124% • Patient on Epinephrine & Levophed drips • 2 units of Albumin given • Within 24 hours, patient off all drips • Extubated Pulse Pressure Variation of 38%, CO 2.8, EF 15% • Pulmonary Edema & Peripheral Edema • 500cc IV fluid, Lasix (times 4) • 8 hours later: PPV 16%, CO 3.9 • no increase in Pulmonary or Peripheral Edema www.lidco.com

  24. Afterload Systemic Vascular Resistance • The amount of pressure the heart must work against • Decreases as CO & CI increases • Can be controlled with medications • Vasoconstrictor–Increases SVR & BP • Vasodialators –Decreases SVR & BP www.lidco.com

  25. Drugs used to Effect SVR Vasoactive Drugs – can be a vasoconstrictor or vasodialators • Vasoconstrictors –increase SVR (afterload) and blood pressure, but vary in their effect on cardiac output. The pure a agonists leave the output of the normal heart unchanged, but may significantly reduce it in the failing heart. As the beta activity of the vasoconstrictor is increased, so cardiac output also tends to increase • Vasodilators –Used to dilate arteries, Decrease SVR, Decrease BP www.lidco.com

  26. Vasoactive Drugs Vasoactive Drugs: vasoconstructors • Isoproteranol– most widely used to ease breathing problems in asthma andCOPD and tocontrol irregular heartbeat until a pacemaker can be implanted. • Phenylephrine– Neo-Synephrine: used to treat shock and low blood pressure. • Ephedrine – used to counteract the hypotensive effects of anesthesia. Also useful as a pressor agent in hypotensive states following sympathectomy, or following overdosage drugs used for lowering blood pressure in the treatment of arterial hypertension. • Metaraminol– Aramine: used to raise the blood pressure and stimulate the heart in treating patients with shock. • Milrinone – Primacor : short-term treatment of patients with acute decompensated heart failure. • Vasopressin– an alternative to noradrenaline in the treatment of hypotension effective in combating milrinone-induced hypotension. www.lidco.com

  27. Drugs used to Effect SVR Vasodilators - Used to dilate arteries, Decrease SVR, Decrease BP • Sodium Nitroprusside is the most potent of the 'mixed' vasodilators. Reliably reduces both afterload and preload. • Nitroglycerine acts predominantly on the venous side of the circulation to reduce preload. The reduction in preload is accompanied by a decrease in LV wall tension with a secondary reduction in myocardial oxygen, also a specific coronary arterial vasodilator and spasmolytic. • Adenosine can be used for its vasodilatory effects. Because of its short plasma half life (< 5 seconds), the drug has a particular role as a relatively specific pulmonary vasodilator. • Hydralazine acts exclusively on the arterial side of the circulation to reduce afterload. www.lidco.com

  28. Contractility Muscle Compliance (EF) • The ability of the muscle fiber to stretch and contract Medications that can assist with contractility • Epinephrine • Dobutamine www.lidco.com

  29. Contractility Contractility Myocardial Contractility • Is the power of contraction • Is independent of preload or afterload • At a constant preload • positive inotropic agents > contractility > SV www.lidco.com

  30. Drugs used to Effect Cardiac Output Vasoactive Drugs – can be a vasoconstrictor or iontrope • Vasoconstrictors: increase SVR (afterload) and blood pressure, but vary in their effect on cardiac output. The pure a agonists leave the output of the normal heart unchanged, but may significantly reduce it in the failing heart. As the beta activity of the vasoconstrictor is increased, so cardiac output also tends to increase • Inotrope: is an agent that alters the force or energy of muscular contractions www.lidco.com

  31. Positive Inotropic Agents Inotrope: is an agent that alters the force or energy of muscular contractions • Adrenaline – Epinephrine (Epi or Adrenalin): used to treat shock, as a heart stimulant. • Noradrenaline – Norepinephrine (Levophed): used to increase the output of the heart and raise blood pressure as part of the treatment of shock. • Dopamine – used for the correction of hemodynamic imbalances present in the shock syndrome due to myocardial infarctions, trauma, endotoxic septicemia, open heart surgery, renal failure, and chronic cardiac decompensation as in congestive failure. • Dobutamine – Dobutrex and generic forms: used to stimulate the heart during surgery or after a heart attack or cardiac arrest. www.lidco.com

  32. CO = SV x HR Heart Rate HR < 60 beats per minute HR > 100 beats per minute • Bradycardia – pacemaker, Atropine, Epinephrine • Tachycardia – Cardioversion, Digoxin, Treat fever or shock causing ↑ HR www.lidco.com

  33. Cardiac Output Changes Cardiac Output Decreases • Decrease in blood volume • Increase in PPV or SVV • Decrease in ejection fraction • Decrease in SV • Decrease in Heart Rate • Bradycardia Cardiac Output Increases • Vasodilation • Decrease in SVR • Increase in Contractility • Increase SV • Increase in Heart Rate • Tachycardiac www.lidco.com
