Résumé

In the last decade, attempts to improve the quality of the services provided to the critically ill patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) are of great interest in human medicine. The aim of the majority of the clinical studies is the correlation of the survival rate of a critically ill patient with specific prognostic factors at the time of admission. The detailed assessment of a patient at admission in the ICU and during hospitalization seems to affect the management and the outcome. The main aim of this study was to evaluate if the trans-diaphragmatic pressure measurement can be a prognostic factor of the outcome in the ICU in dogs. Thirty-one dogs, 21 male and 10 female was included in this prospective, cohort study. Age, breed, sex, body weight and clinical diagnosis were recorded. The type of admission, the mentation status, physiological and biochemical parameters were measured at the admission of the dog in the ICU. All the variables were assessed over the first 24 hours following ICU admission. The animals were allocated into six

groups: peritonitis/intra-abdominal surgery, intra-thoracic surgery, respiratory disease, neurologic disease, neoplasia, and systematic disease. The trans-diaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) was measured under the same anesthetic level in all animals with two oesophageal balloon catheters. The most frequent problem for admission in ICU was peritonitis (5/31). Seventeen out of 31 were admitted in acute status while 14/31 had a chronic problem. Mean±standard deviation of Pdi was 10.7±5.6 mmHg and of lactate concentration 2.3±1.2 mmol/L. Both, they can predict outcome (p=0.071 and p=0.076, respectively). Seven out of 31 dogs died, 2 were euthanized and 22 were discharged from the ICU after hospitalization. The technique of Pdi measurement with balloon catheters can be successfully applied in dogs in the ICU. Pdi measurement, as well as lactate concentration may be used as prognostic indicators for the outcome, in dogs in the ICU. However, a bigger sample size is need to support these findings.
