Quality Key
Persistent Microcirculatory Alterations

Failure and Death in Patients with Septic Shock. Microcirculatory alterations improved rapidly in septic shock survivors but not in non-survivors.

Persistent microcirculatory alterations were associated with MOF (multiple organ failure) and death, even though global hemodynamic and oxygenation variables were similar. Improvement in microvascular perfusion, as early as 24 hrs after the onset of shock, can be a good predictor of ICU mortality. OPS imaging can be useful to identify patients in septic shock with persistent microcirculatory alterations in whom microvascular recruitment may be an important therapeutic target. Microcirculatory alterations improve rapidly in septic shock survivors but not in patients dying with multiple organ failure, regardless of whether shock has resolved.

Summer and Errors
I have noticed an improvement in the quality of your work. As a reminder I would like to let you know that is always room for improvement and you still need to be careful with your paperwork. Also, now that the days are getting warmer I need to remind you that your attire needs to stay at a professional level. While there has been much improvement in the quality of paperwork it is still important you double4 and even triple check your work. We still have errors on medical exams and we still have room for improvement. Now that the summer time is here, we need to make sure that you are properly dressed, because you are representing yourself, but also RM Global Health.
