COMMON ICU PROBLEM

HYPERKALEMIA (also see Chapter 22)


Serum K >5.0 mmol/l, severe hyperkalemia >6.0
mmol/l
Causes
• Renal insufficiency
• Adrenal insufficiency
• Insulin deficiency
• Tissue damage from rhabdomyolysis, trauma, or
burns
• Medication related
• Acidosis
Clinical Manifestations
• Peaked T waves on ECG; hyperkalemia depolarizes
the
cardiac membrane leading to further ECG changes,
like
widening of QRS (sinusoidal wave forms) which can
progress
to asystole or ventricular fibrillation
• Muscular effects can include paresthesias,
weakness, or
f
laccid paralysis
Management
• Stabilize cardiac membrane
• Calcium gluconate (10%) 10 ml IV push over 2–3
min, can
repeat q5min
• Shift potassium intracellularly
• Insulin (regular) 10 U IV push with 25 g of Dextrose IV
push
(if not hyperglycemic)
• Albuterol 15–20 mg (β-agonist) nebulized over 10
min
• Sodium bicarbonate 50 mmol IV push or 150 mmol/l
IV at a
variable rate (only use if pt has a severe met acidosis)
• Potassium elimination from body
• Furosemide (Lasix) 40–80 mg IV push
• Sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate) 15–30 g
in 15
30 ml (70% sorbitol PO)
• Do not administer in ileus or bowel obstruction
because of
risk of colonic necrosis
• Hemodialysis (if hyperkalemia is unresponsive to
conservative measures listed above)
SHOCK
Hypoperfusion causing tissue hypoxia resulting in
multiorgan dysfunction (also see Chapter 23 for
septic shock).
Differential Diagnosis
• Hypovolemic
• Hemorrhage (trauma, GI bleed, retroperitoneal
bleed)
• Dehydration (vomiting, diarrhea, GI fistula)
• 3rd spacing (burns, malnutrition, sepsis, septic
shock)
• Cardiogenic
• MI
• Myocarditis
• End-stage cardiomyopathy
• Valvular failure
• CHF
• Arrhythmia
• Distributive
• Sepsis
• Anaphylaxis
• Liver failure
• Neurogenic
• Adrenal insufficiency
• Drugs
• Obstructive
• Tension pneumothorax (PTX)
• Cardiac tamponade
• Constrictive pericarditis
• PE
• Aortic coarctation
Clinical Manifestations
• Hypotension
• Tachycardia
• Tachypnea
• Mottled skin
• Cool extremities
• Altered mental status
• Decreased urine output
Management
• Establish & maintain ABCs (airway, breathing,
circulation)
• Fluid resuscitation
• Blood & blood product transfusion
• Vasopressors
• Inotropes
• Hemodynamic monitoring (CVC, arterial line, PA
catheter,
echocardiogram)
• Consider the following resuscitation endpoints for
septic
shock (the most common type of shock)
• CVP 8–12 mm Hg, 12–15 mm Hg if mechanically
ventilated
• MAP ≥65 mm Hg
• Urine output (UOP) ≥0.5 ml/kg/hr
• ScVO2 ≥70% or MVO2 ≥65%
• Lactate clearance
• Identification & treatment of underlying problem
including
source control in septic shock
SEPSIS
Life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a
dysregulated host response to infection (also see
Chapter 23; Singer M, et al. JAMA. 2016;315(8):801–
810).
Causes
• Pneumonia
• Catheter-related blood stream Infxn
• Sinusitis
• Clostridium difficile
• Intra-abd (cholecystitis, abscess, peritonitis)
• UTI, pyelonephritis
• Meningitis, encephalitis
• Cellulitis, necrotizing soft tissue Infxn, wound Infxn
• Septic arthritis, osteomyelitis
• Endocarditis
• Fungemia, fungal abscess
Investigations
• CBC, electrolytes, BUN/Cr, PT/INR, LFT
• Blood cx, urine cx, site-specific cx
• ABG/lactate
• Procalcitonin
• Imaging studies: CXR, site specific CT scan, US, etc.

2013;41(2):580
