1. Lets Imagine
A 31-year-old man (Unconscious) was admitted to the hospital via
emergency medical services after suffering a severe closed-head injury
resulting from a car-vs-pedestrian collision.
On further investigation there is marked increase in ICP, Deranged lab
investigations such as RFT and LFT i.e. particular increment in creatinine,
urea, ALT, AST.

4. Life Support techniques
Life support techniques refers to a variety of medical procedures
that aim to keep alive until body is functioning again.
Life support replaces or supports a failing organ.
Life support procedures include mechanical breathing
(ventilation), CPR, tube feeding, dialysis and more.

5. Objective of multiple organ support
therapy
•Protect the organs before organ failure
• Restrict tissue hypoxia
• Reduce an excessive inflammatory response
• Protect against oxidant damage
• If multiple organ failure is already established, the cells
might need to be rested.

6. Introduction of ICU
• The intensive care unit (ICU) is the hospital facility within which
the highest level of continuous patient care and treatment care are provided.
• ICU cases include a variety of severe cases due to major surgical
interventions, trauma, hemodynamic instability, sepsis and so on.
• All of these factors can easily lead to multiple organ dysfunction syndromes
(MODS).
• MODS are the leading cause of mortality in critically ill patients and is
responsible for a large amount of healthcare expenditure.

Most patients admitted to intensive care require some form of
respiratory support.
This is usually because of hypoxemia or ventilator failure, or both.
The support offered ranges from oxygen therapy by face mask,
through non-invasive techniques such as continuous positive airways
pressure, to full ventilator support with endotracheal intubation.

25. Intra-aortic balloon pump therapy
It is a type of therapeutic device. It helps the heart pump more blood.
It is need for if heart is unable to pump enough blood for body.
The intra-aortic balloon pump consists of a thin, flexible tube
called a catheter. Attached to the tip of the catheter is a long balloon.
The other end of the catheter attaches to a computer console.
This console has a mechanism for inflating and deflating the balloon
at the proper time when heart beats.

27. A ventricular assist device (VAD)
It is a device that helps pump blood from the lower chambers of the
heart to the rest of the body.
It's a treatment for a weakened heart or heart failure.
A VAD may be used to help the heart work while waiting for other
treatments, such as a heart transplant.
Sometimes a VAD is used to permanently help the heart pump blood.

30. Extra corporeal membrane oxygenation
(ECMOS)
It is a life support machine that replaces the functions of the
heart and lungs in which the blood is pumped outside the
body in a heart lung machine that removes carbon dioxide and
sends oxygen filled blood back to the tissues in the body.

It is a process for removing waste and excess
water from the blood by means an artificial kidney
90% of all dialysis patient receive hemodialysis.
Indicated for patients with ESRD who require
long-term or permanent therapy.
Treatments usually occur three times a week for at
least 3 to 4 hours per treatment.

Means of removing waste (such as urea,
creatinine and phosphate) and excess fluid
from the body by uses the peritoneal
membrane as a semi permeable membrane.
A soft catheter is placed through a
surgically created tunnel in the abdominal
wall and inserted into peritoneal cavity
Dialysate is run into the peritoneal cavity,
usually under gravity

40. Liver support therapy
Liver failure is defined as an insufficiency of any facet of liver
function to a degree that this insufficiency leads to secondary
organ failures and creates a life threatening situation if untreated.
The Molecular Adsorbent Recirculation System (MARS) is an
example of artificial extracorporeal liver support.

vitamins and nutritional
supplements

42. Molecular Adsorbent Recirculation
System (MARS)
It is also known as albumin extracorporeal dialysis, was used for the first time in
1993.
Nowadays, it consists of elements for extracorporeal renal replacement
techniques as well as adsorption.
To do this, it contains a three-circuit system: one in direct contact with the blood
of the patient, one embedded in albumin solution and the last encompassing
hemodialysis and hemofiltration functions (replacing renal function).
7/15/2023
42
45. Molecular Adsorbent Recirculation
System Cont…
It therefore requires a standard dialysis machine to control the
dialysate circuit, and an extra device (monitor) to control and
monitor the closed-loop albumin circuit
The MARS system combines the efficacy of sorbents to remove
albumin-bound toxins with the high selectivity of highly
biocompatible dialysis membranes.
7/15/2023
45
46. Mechanism of Action
First step: Using heparin as an anticoagulant for the entire system,
the blood obtained from a venous access is dialyzed through an
albumin-impermeable membrane at a flow rate of 150-250 mL/min.
The albumin circuit contains an albumin solution at 20-25% in a
closed circuit where a steady volume of the solution is being
recirculated.
7/15/2023
46
47. First step Cont…
Albumin-ligated toxins are recruited by a concentration
gradient. The membrane is impermeable to substances with a
molecular weight over 50 kDa; therefore, albumin, α-1
glycoprotein, α-1 antitrypsin, α-2 macroglobulin, transferrin and
hormone transporter proteins circulate back to the patient.
7/15/2023
47
48. Second step:
The ultra-filtrate obtained passes through the hemodialysis circuit,
where all the water-soluble toxins are removed, then returns to the
bloodstream of the patient.
The dialysate passes through the third compartment containing a
bicarbonate-buffered dialysate, after which the flow continues to two
sequential columns: the first containing uncoated charcoal and the
second containing an anion exchange resin

52. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)
Concentrated antibodies is injected straight into a vein.
The antibodies are extracted from healthy donors.
Most effective if administered within two weeks of the onset of symptoms.
IVIG contains the pooled immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies and may
reduce the severity of autoimmune
Obtained from the plasma of approximately thousand or more blood donors
7/15/2023
52
53. Plasmapheresis
The patient plasma and plasma components are removed through
a centrally placed
The blood cells and antibody-containing plasma are separated
The cells and a plasma substitute are reinfused
Plasma exchange produces a temporary reduction in the titer of
circulating antibodies
40-50 mL/kg plasma exchange (PE) can be administered 4 times
over a week
7/15/2023
53
54. Supportive Management
Respiratory support: ventilation via ET or tracheostomy
Pain management: NSAIDS, acetaminophen with
hydrocodone
Nutritional support: enteral / parenteral feeding
Close monitoring

55. Intraventricular catheter:
It is the most accurate monitoring
method of ICP.
To insert an intraventricular catheter,
a hole is drilled through the skull.
The catheter is inserted through the
brain into the lateral ventricle.
This area of the brain contains
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
7/15/2023

56. Risks Associated with Intraventricular
Catheter:
Infection
Collapse of the ventricles/ rapid ventricular drainage,
Increased potential for subdural hematoma,
