Itโs a wrap! Another great @CritCareReviews meeting.
#CCR25
Could hear a ๐ drop during the Johns Hinds lecture by John Myburgh celebrating humanity, integrity and excellence.
Fantastic!

#CCR25 #PRINCEtrial Is it possible that any potential benefit of RIPC was offset by a longer duration of general anaesthesia ?

๐ The #PRINCEtrial:
๐ฅ 1,100 pts undergoing non-cardiac surgery
๐กRemote Ischemic Preconditioning (3x5 min cuff inflation/deflation)
๐ Comparison: Sham RIPC (cuff placed, not inflated)
๐ฏ Outcome: Postop cardiac troponin release

Another super cluster crossover trial at #CCR25 - the FLUID trial (looking at Ringers lactate vs normal saline - at the system level). 1/3 See paper here โฆ

๐ฉธAmong adults undergoing cardiac surgery, ANH did not reduce the number of patients receiving allogeneic red-cell transfusion.
These are the findings of the #ANHtrial, our latest multicenter RCT, just presented at #CCR25 and published in @NEJM.

Presented at #CCR25:
In a cluster-randomized, crossover trial, hospital-wide use of lactated Ringerโs solution as compared with normal saline did not alter the incidence of death or hospital readmission within 90 days. Full trial results: nej.md/45SaEBs
@CritCareReviews
@nialldferguson thanks for these insights. A really great editorial. Pragmatic and entertaining #CCR25
