RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Numerous trials have addressed intracranial pressure (ICP) management in neurocritical care. However, identifying its harmful thresholds and controlling ICP remain challenging in terms of improving outcomes. Evidence suggests that an individualized approach is necessary for establishing tolerance limits for ICP, incorporating factors such as ICP waveform (ICPW) or pulse morphology along with additional data provided by other invasive (e.g., brain oximetry) and noninvasive monitoring (NIM) methods (e.g., transcranial Doppler, optic nerve sheath diameter ultrasound, and pupillometry). This study aims to assess current ICP monitoring practices among experienced clinicians and explore whether guidelines should incorporate ancillary parameters from NIM and ICPW in future updates. METHODS: We conducted a survey among experienced professionals involved in researching and managing patients with severe injury across low-middle-income countries (LMICs) and high-income countries (HICs). We sought their insights on ICP monitoring, particularly focusing on the impact of NIM and ICPW in various clinical scenarios. RESULTS: From October to December 2023, 109 professionals from the Americas and Europe participated in the survey, evenly distributed between LMIC and HIC. When ICP ranged from 22 to 25 mm Hg, 62.3% of respondents were open to considering additional information, such as ICPW and other monitoring techniques, before adjusting therapy intensity levels. Moreover, 77% of respondents were inclined to reassess patients with ICP in the 18-22 mm Hg range, potentially escalating therapy intensity levels with the support of ICPW and NIM. Differences emerged between LMIC and HIC participants, with more LMIC respondents preferring arterial blood pressure transducer leveling at the heart and endorsing the use of NIM techniques and ICPW as ancillary information. CONCLUSIONS: Experienced clinicians tend to personalize ICP management, emphasizing the importance of considering various monitoring techniques. ICPW and noninvasive techniques, particularly in LMIC settings, warrant further exploration and could potentially enhance individualized patient care. The study suggests updating guidelines to include these additional components for a more personalized approach to ICP management.

RESUMO

A hipertensão arterial sistêmica representa um dos principais problemas de saúde pública no Brasil e no mundo. O controle pressórico estrito é essencial para a redução de eventos cardiovasculares maiores, pois a pressão arterial sistólica elevada é o principal fator de risco modificável para doenças cardiovasculares e mortalidade total. Ensaios clínicos randomizados prévios, como o SPRINT trial e o STEP trial, geraram evidências robustas sobre os benefícios do alcance de metas pressóricas intensivas na redução de eventos cardiovasculares maiores em pacientes hipertensos de alto risco cardiovascular não-diabéticos e sem acidente vascular cerebral (AVC) prévio. Porém, ainda há dúvidas sobre o benefício de tal estratégia nestas duas populações de pacientes. Para dar uma resposta definitiva a esta questão, os estudos OPTIMAL-DIABETES e OPTIMAL-STROKE estão sendo conduzidos com alto rigor científico no Brasil e estes já são os maiores estudos sobre o tema em nível global. Os resultados destes dois estudos, previstos para 2024/2025, são muito esperados para nos dar as evidências necessárias sobre o benefício do controle pressórico intensivo em pacientes diabéticos e pós-AVC (AU).


Hypertension represents one of the main public health problems in Brazil and in the world. Blood pressure (BP) control is essential to reduce major cardiovascular events, as high systolic BP is the main modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and any-cause deaths. Previous randomized clinical trials, such as the SPRINT trial and the STEP trial, have provided robust evidence on the benefits of intensive BP targets on the reduction of major cardiovascular events in hypertensive patients with high cardiovascular risk without diabetes and previous stroke. However, there is still uncertainty about the benefits of such strategy on this two populations of patients. To provide a definitive answer to this question, the OPTIMAL-DIABETES and OPTIMAL-STROKE trials are being conducted with high scientific rigor in Brazil and these are already the biggest studies in this area globally. The results of these two trials, expected in 2024/2025, are long awaited to provide us the necessary evidence on the benefits of intensive BP control in patients with diabetes and patients with stroke (AU).

RESUMO

O VII Simpósio Internacional de Trombose e Anticoagulação (ISTA) foi realizado em São Paulo, SP, Brasil, nos dias 24 e 25 de outubro de 2014, tendo como principais propósitos a discussão e o compartilhamento de conhecimentos sobre os avanços recentes na abordagem diagnóstica e terapêutica de pacientes com distúrbios trombóticos, nas suas diversas formas de apresentação clínica. O programa científico deste simpósio foi cuidadosamente desenvolvido por líderes de três importantes institutos de pesquisa clínica: o Instituto Brasileiro de Pesquisa Clínica(BCRI), o Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI), e Instituto de Pesquisa do Hospital do Coração. Composto por dois dias de apresentações acadêmicas e discussão aberta, o simpósio teve como principal objetivo educar, motivar e inspirar os clínicos, cardiologistas, hematologistas, e outros médicos através de apresentações e discussões de aspectos práticos de condutas que envolvem síndromes relacionadas à trombose e suas respectivas terapias antitrombóticas. Estas atividades possibilitaram uma interação direta entre a plateia e o corpo de palestrantes, composto por médicos de grande experiência clínica e pelos médicos pesquisadores que desenvolveram os principais estudos publicados que guiam nossas condutas em situações relacionadas ao tema "trombose e anticoagulação". Este artigo resume os anais deste simpósio.


The VII International Symposium on Thrombosis and Anticoagulation (ISTA) was held in São Paulo, Brazil, on 24 and 25 October 2014, with the main objectives to discuss and share knowledge on recent advances in the diagnosis and management of patients with thrombotic disorders. The scientific program of this symposium was carefully developed by leaders of three major clinical research institutes: the Brazilian Institute of Clinical Research (BCRI), the Duke Clinical Research Institute from Duke University, and the Research Institute from Hospital do Coração. Comprising two days of academic presentations and open discussion, the symposium aimed to educate, motivate and inspire clinicians, cardiologists, hematologists, and other doctors through presentations and discussions of practical aspects in themes related to thrombosis and anticoagulation. These activities were presented by physicians of great clinical experience and who participated in the main publications that guide our approach on situations related to the theme "thrombosis and anticoagulation". This article summarizes the proceedings of this symposium.
