Critical Illness-Related Corticosteroid Insufficiency in Cardiogenic Shock Patients: Prevalence and Prognostic Role.
    Shock (Augusta, Ga.), 2018, Volume: 50, Issue:4

    Cardiogenic shock shares with septic shock common hemodynamic features, inflammatory patterns, and most likely similar complications such as critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency in cardiogenic shock patients and to secondarily assess its prognostic value on 90-day mortality.. A single-center prospective observational study conducted over a 3-year period and including all patients with cardiogenic shock. Main exclusion criteria were patients with prior cardiac arrest, sepsis, ongoing corticosteroid therapy, and etomidate administration. A short corticotropin test was performed in the first 24 h following admission. Serum cortisol levels were measured before (T0) and 60 min (T60) after administration of 250 μg of cosyntropin. Critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency was defined according to the 2017 consensus definition (basal total cortisol<10 μg·dL or a delta cortisol T60-T0<9 μg·dL) as well as the thresholds published in 2016 in cardiogenic shock patients associated with worst prognosis (basal total cortisol>29 μg·dL and delta cortisol T60-T0<17 μg·dL).. Seventy-nine consecutive patients hospitalized in intensive care for cardiogenic shock met the inclusion criteria. Overall mortality was 43% at day 90. Forty-two percent had critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency using the 2017 consensus definition and 32% using the 2016 cardiogenic shock thresholds. Presence of critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency was not an independent factor associated with 90-day mortality irrespective of the thresholds used.. Critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency is a frequent occurrence in medical cardiogenic shock. However, in this study, such insufficiency was not associated with prognosis.

Prognostic Value of Relative Adrenal Insufficiency During Cardiogenic Shock: A Prospective Cohort Study With Long-Term Follow-Up.
    Shock (Augusta, Ga.), 2017, Volume: 47, Issue:1

    Relative adrenal insufficiency (RAI) is common in intensive care unit patients, particularly during septic shock (SS). Cardiogenic shock (CS) may share some pathophysiological features with SS. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and long-term prognosis of RAI during CS.. Prospective observational study conducted in the intensive care and cardiology units in one university hospital in France. Patients meeting the criteria for CS without prior corticosteroid therapy were included. Total blood cortisol levels were assessed immediately before (T0) a short corticotropin stimulation test (0.25 mg i.v. of tetracosactrin) and 30 and 60 min afterward. Δmax was defined as the difference between the maximal value after the test and T0.. Of the 92 patients enrolled, 42 (46%) (95% confidence interval [CI] [36%-56%]) died in hospital and 7 more died during a median follow-up of 616 [57-2,498] days, for an overall mortality rate of 53% (95% CI [43%-63%]). Three groups were identified based on the corticotropin test: group 1 (T0 ≤798 nmol/L and Δmax >473 nmol/L), group 2 ([T0 >798 nmol/L and Δmax >473 nmol/L] or [T0 ≤798 nmol/L and Δmax ≤473 nmol/L]), and group 3 (T0 >798 nmol/L and Δmax ≤473 nmol/L) with an overall survival of 76%, 43%, and 15%, respectively (log rank P = 0.003). In the multivariable analysis, adrenal nonresponse (group 3) was an independent predictor of mortality (P = 0.04), along with left ventricular ejection fraction, Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, and cardiac arrest.. These data suggest that a short corticotropin test has a good prognostic value in CS and allows identifying patients at higher risk of death.

A preliminary investigation into adrenal responsiveness and outcomes in patients with cardiogenic shock after acute myocardial infarction.
    Journal of critical care, 2014, Volume: 29, Issue:3

    This study investigated the significance of baseline cortisol levels and adrenal response to corticotropin in shocked patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI).. A short corticotropin stimulation test was performed in 35 patients with cardiogenic shock after AMI by intravenously injecting of 250 μg of tetracosactrin (Synacthen). Blood samples were obtained at baseline (T0) before and at 30 (T30) and 60 (T60) minutes after the test to determine plasma total cortisol (TC) and free cortisol concentrations. The main outcome measure was in-hospital mortality and its association with T0 TC and maximum response to corticotropin (maximum difference [Δ max] in cortisol levels between T0 and the highest value between T30 and T60).. The in-hospital mortality was 37%, and the median time to death was 4 days (interquartile range, 3-9 days). There was some evidence of an increased mortality in patients with T0 TC concentrations greater than 34 μg/dL (P=.07). Maximum difference by itself was not an independent predictor of death. Patients with a T0 TC 34 μg/dL or less and Δ max greater than 9 μg/dL appeared to have the most favorable survival (91%) when compared with the other 2 groups: T0 34 μg/dL or less and Δ max 9 μg/dL or less or T0 34 μg/dL or higher and Δ max greater than 9 μg/dL (75%; P=.8) and T0 greater than 34 μg/dL and Δ max 9 μg/dL or less (60%; P=.02). Corticosteroid therapy was associated with an increased mortality (P=.03). There was a strong correlation between plasma TC and free cortisol (r=0.85).. A high baseline plasma TC was associated with a trend toward increased mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock post-AMI. Patients with lower baseline TC, but with an inducible adrenal response, appeared to have a survival benefit. A prognostic system based on basal TC and Δ max similar to that described in septic shock appears feasible in this cohort. Corticosteroid therapy was associated with adverse outcomes. These findings require further validation in larger studies.
