Prediction of mechanical ventilation outcome by early abdominal-visceral-blood-flow-and-function score in critically ill patients after cardiopulmonary bypass in the ICU: A prospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Abdominal organs are important organs that sense and respond to ischemia and hypoxia, but there are few evaluation methods.We use ultrasonography to evaluate abdominal organ function and blood flow in patients with mechanical ventilation (MV) after cardiopulmonary bypass and to obtain a semiquantitative score for abdominal organ function and blood flow.

Methods

Patients with cardiopulmonary bypass in the Critical Care Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in China from March to July 2021 were enrolled in this prospective observational study. The correlation of the abdominal-visceral-blood-flow-and-function score (AVBFS) with the duration of MV, number of days spent in the intensive care unit (ICU), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (A
