Similar to the previous report a transition zone is depicted as a curvilinear function indicating that higher intensity ICP insults can be tolerated for a short period of time without beaing associated with poorer outcome.

38 CPPopt guided-therapy in TBI: one center data Celeste Dias C E L E S T E. D I A M E D. U P. P T

39 CPPopt - decision steps 30º head up elevation and ABP transducer at heart level. CPPopt value and curve, updated every minute, in a 4 hr calculation window. at least 75% of time good recordings of CPP and ICP values available in the 4hr calculation window average PRx values had to be < 0.25 the past 4hrs select the CPP value with most negative PRx value covered by the curve. U-shaped, ascending and descending curves were accepted in case the overall PRx<0.25. CPPopt guided-therapy in TBI: one center data

43 Conclusions Online monitoring data (CPP, ICP) is suitable for online assessment of autoregulation (PRx) CPPopt guided-therapy needs to applied with a strict protocol CPPopt algorithm may be applied by trained nurses Results show that patients with impaired autoregulation have worse outcomes CPP-CPPopt around zero is related to best outcomes Thanks to Dr Celeste Dias, Porto

44 Pressure reactivity index and CPPopt work so far 174 articles with PRx 70 articles with CPPopt Pubmed Oct 2017

45 Unanswered fundamental questions How does CPPopt behave prospectively? Is CPP management according to CPPopt safe? How do clinicians interpret and act on CPPopt recommendations? What is the best end point for the subsequent RCT?

46 Further questions to address Should CPPopt be targeted outright or be a guide given other parameters (and if so, how)? Is CPPopt the most appropriate target or some other associated parameter (such as the lower limit of autoregulation)? Should we target CPPopt even if autoregulation at CPPopt is still absent? Is CPPopt guided therapy beneficial in all TBI patients? Is CPPopt guided therapy equally beneficial in contusional, pericontusional and normal TBI brain

56 Study main endpoints Feasibility Differences in CPP and CPPopt in both groups. Mean PRx Mean difference in CPP-CPPopt Safety A change in treatment intensity level score (TIL) score of 3 is representative of an escalation of treatment effectiveness from basic ICP management to second tier therapies which are known to be more harmful and therefore this is a significant effect

57 Secondary aims/endpoints Between group differences in ICP variability Frequency and average duration of spikes > 20mmHg Mean daily RAP (cerebral compliance index). Mean daily vasopressor dose. Incidence of troponin rise stratified by day. Mean daily fluid balance. Mean daily P/F ratio (pulmonary complications). Survival and GOSE at 3 months.

58 Physiological effectiveness / effect of targeting CPPop Differences in Mean daily MAP. Mean daily PRx at CPPopt. Mean daily L/P ratio, PbO2 (and PbO2/PaO2 ratio), brain tissue glucose
