INTRODUCTION: Although microcirculation dysfunction plays unique role in septic shock,
translation of microcirculation to clinical practices is limited by current semi-quantities …

Objective To evaluate microcirculation in intermediate and high mortality risk patients
undergoing cardiac surgery (CS) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Patients and methods …

Background Hypoperfusion of the intestinal mucosa remains an important clinical problem
during sepsis. Impairment of the autoregulation of microcirculatory blood flow in the …

OBJECTIVES:: Possible benefits of pulsatile perfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass often
are attributed to enhanced microvascular flow. However, there is no evidence to support this …

Objectives: Reliable automated handheld vital microscopy image sequence analysis and
the identification of disease states and effects of therapy are prerequisites for the routine use …

Background: Microcirculation has become a major focus of research in critical care medicine
due to its growing clinical relevance detecting changes in organ perfusion at an early stage …

Introduction: This was a cross-sectional multicenter study to investigate the ability of
physicians and nurses from three different countries to subjectively evaluate sublingual …

Alterations in microvascular perfusion have been identified in critically ill patients, especially
in sepsis but also in cardiogenic shock, after cardiac arrest, and in high-risk surgery patients …

Tissue microcirculation measured by vascular occlusion test is impaired during septic shock.
However, it has not been investigated extensively during anesthesia induction. The aim of …

BACKGROUND: Heterogeneity in microvascular perfusion is associated with impaired
tissue oxygenation. We hypothesized that cardiac surgery with or without cardiopulmonary …
