SCCM Resource Library-May Journal Club: Critical Care Medicine (2021)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In today's Journal Club Critical Care Medicine webcast, two articles were discussed. The first article focused on the motoric subtypes of delirium and their long-term effects on functional and mental health outcomes in adults after critical illness. The study found that longer durations of hypoactive delirium were associated with worse functional outcomes in instrumental activities of daily living at three months after discharge. However, there was no significant association between delirium subtype and mental health outcomes. The second article examined the association between admission hemoglobin levels and functional outcomes in individuals with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage. The study found that higher hemoglobin levels were associated with a lower risk of poor outcome three months after the hemorrhage. The association remained consistent across a wide range of hemoglobin levels. However, there was no consistent association between hemoglobin levels and hematoma volume or hematoma expansion. The findings suggest that higher hemoglobin levels may be a potential target for interventions to improve outcomes in both delirium and intracerebral hemorrhage. Further studies are needed to confirm these results and evaluate potential interventions.
