Summary

The goal of this prospective observational study is to analyse change in VO2 and VCO2 measured via a dedicated ventilator after hemodynamic optimization maneuvers in adult patients admitted to the ICU with any sign of shock. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do common maneuvers for hemodynamic optimization (fluid bolus and/or vasopressor administration) have any impact on tissue perfusion in terms of oxygen consumption (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2) measured by a dedicated ventilator? 2. Are the values measured by exhaled gas comparable to those calculated by the measurement of dissolved veno-arterial gas? Participants enrolled in the study will receive advanced hemodynamic monitoring with MostCare Up (Vygon ®) and their hemodynamic instability will be managed according to most recent guidelines and based on clinical decision of treating physicians.

Conditions

• Hemodynamic Instability
• Oxygen Consumption (V̇O2)

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Noradrenalin	After inclusion, patients will be tested for fluid responsiveness. Pulse pressure variation (PPV) will be evaluated. In case of PPV\> 13% a fluid bolus of 500 mL of Lactated Ringer's will be administered in 10 minutes. If PPV\< 8% Norepinephrine will be administered or increased. If PPV is in the gray zone, a PLRT will be performed and if CO increases more than 10% a fluid bolus will be prescribed, otherwise norepinephrine increased.
