Both delirium 😵💫 & frailty 🚫💪 are important predictors of mortality in ICU patients… but do they interact to associate w harm?

I believe that #ECMO is a life-saving temporising intervention. Yet, there are ethical dilemmas when it appears "futile".
In @LancetRespirMed, @kshekar01 @KrKrramanathan and I envision a future where ECMO can be reliably used as a long-term device.

🧐 What is the burden of AHRF in ICUs?
🫂 ANZICS APD 2005-2024: 1.5m patients with ABGs
🫁 >50% had AHRF within 24h of ICU admission!
🪦 Mortality ⬆️with worsening P/F ratios, esp <200.
⏲️ Mortality ⬇️ with time, but not unique to AHRF alone...

Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in #ICU in 🇦🇺🇳🇿: disease burden may be higher than expected!

Well done @Intensive_Ryo @catchdrash
Very important work highlighting the importance of
1. the association of frailty with outcomes of IHCA
2. deploying CPR in appropriate patients
3. the need to have goals of care discussions with inpatients

- No compliance based subphenotypes observed in COVID-related ARDS
- Making changes to conventional ventilatory strategies/adopting newer strategies based on scarce evidence in emerging infectious respiratory pathologies can be deleterious.@LancetRespirMed
New meta-analysis on #COVID #ARDS #phenotypes out in @LancetRespirMed:
🫁 compliance is NORMALLY distributed
📠 vent. management for #COVID #ARDS should not differ from non-COVID-19 ARDS
👨👩👧👦 more patient-level analyses needed
