Therapeutic Effect and Prognosis of PiCCO in the Treatment of Myocardial Injury Complicated with Septic Shock

Objective To explore the effect of pulse-induced contour cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring on the survival and prognosis of patients with myocardial injury and septic shock. Methods A total of 400 patients with MI and septic shock who were treated in our hospital from May 2018 to June 2021 were included in the study. They were randomly grouped into the PiCCO group (n = 200) and the control group (n = 200) according to whether PiCCO was used for monitoring during the treatment period. The clinical baseline characteristics of all the patients were recorded. For comparison, we recorded hemodynamic parameters including mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), heart rate (HR), troponin I (TnI), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), oxygen metabolism parameters including systemic central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2), and lactate before and 6 h after intervention. In addition, white blood cell count (WBC) and C-reactive protein (CPR) levels before and 6 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after intervention were measured in both groups. Finally, the survival and prognostic parameters were compared between the two groups. Results At 6 h after monitoring intervention, the hemodynamic parameters of the patients in the PiCCO group were significantly increased. Additionally, compared with the control group, the ScvO2 level was higher while the lactate level was lower in the PiCCO group. An intergroup comparison on inflammation also showed that WBC and CPR levels recovered better in the PiCCO group than in the control group. Moreover, patients with PiCCO monitoring showed better performance in outcome measures such as mortality, duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, length of hospital stay, duration of ventilator use, acute physiology and chronic health scores, and postoperative complications. Conclusion With the monitoring and guidance of the PiCCO technique, the nursing outcomes, survival rate, and prognosis of patients with myocardial injury and septic shock can be improved.
