Donor Case StudiesOptimal Management
Harbor-UCLA Critical Care – Organ Donation SymposiumApril 12, 2010Brant Putnam, MD FACSTrauma / Acute Care Surgery / Surgical Critical CareHarbor-UCLA Medical CenterSlide2
What is OPTIMAL donor management?
= GOOD CRITICAL CARESlide3
OPTIMAL donor management begins
PRIOR to proclamation of brain death.The ICU nurses and physicians are jointly responsible for optimal donor management, not just the OPO.Slide4
If the patient has not been formally pronounced brain dead, then the patient is alive.
Who is not willing to provide good critical care to a live patient?NO ONESlide5
Case #1
63yo male found lying against a wallPossible fall vs. assaultLarge laceration to occipital areaGCS 1-4-1Pupils sluggishSlide6
Case #1
Called as a “Tier II” (high acuity) traumaA - Patent, but not protectedB - Spontaneous, clear bilaterallyC - P = 86 BP – 150D - Unresponsive GCS = 1-4-1 Pupils 32, sluggish Blood from left earSlide7
Case #1
Intubated in the ED for airway protectionTaken for CT scan for suspected severe traumatic brain injurySlide8

parenchymal hemorrhages

(w/ midline shift)Slide9
Case #1
Neurosurgery consultation To OR immediately for bilateral craniectomy + evacuation ICH and SDHGCS 1-1-1Coagulopathic and HD unstable intra-opPrognosis deemed poor leaving the ORSlide10

HerniationSlide12
Brain Herniation
Often accompanied by catecholamine stormHypertensionTachycardiaAvoid anti-hypertensivesSlide13
Management Goal #1
Appropriate hemodynamic resuscitation to maintain perfusion to potential organs for donationMaintain MAP 65-100 mmHgPlace central venous line; fluid resuscitation to CVP 4-10 cm H20Use of < 1 vasopressorDopamine < 10 mcg/kg/minLevophed < 10 mcg/minNeosynephrine
<
60 mcg/min
Consider hormonal resuscitation with
T4 protocolSlide14
What should happen next??
Begin testing for brain deathOne Legacy notification (actually should have already been notified!!!)Clinical optimizationSlide15
When to notify One Legacy…Slide16
Case #1: What did happen….
Next morning… 1200 noon One Legacy notifiedPhysician to hold family conference to discuss poor prognosisNo new orders written…Slide17

What do you think is going on here? Management?Slide18
Diabetes Insipidus
Excretion of large amounts of severely dilute urine“Central” – no ADH release from brainKidney can not concentrate urineTherapyDDAVP (desmopressin acetate)Synthetic analogue of ADH Free water replacementFrequent monitoring of serum NaSlide19

Management?
Insulin drip finally started next morning at 0900Slide22
Management Goal #3
Potential donors are critically ill patientsTight glucose control appliesIncrease frequency of Accu-checksIncrease sliding scaleInsulin drip as neededGoal is to keep serum glucose < 150Slide23
As time passes . . .
Multiple ventilator alarmsPIPs 45-50Low exhaled tidal volumesO2 sats 85%Increase TVs to 1 L to maintain sats 88-90%Is this the best ventilator management?Slide24
Management Goal #4
Maintain good oxygenationPaO2/FiO2 ratio > 300Reduce FiO2 to reduce oxygen toxicityAvoid high PEEP effects on hemodynamicsMaintain adequate ventilationABG pH 7.30-7.45Avoid barotrauma to lungsPIPs < 32 cm H20 Slide25
