46 PATHOPHYSIOLOGY Files et al Crit Care

47 Risk Factors for CINM Prospective Cohort Studies with Multivariate Analysis Critical Illness Neuromyopathy Sepsis above all Witt, Chest 1991 Campellone, Neurology 1998 Garnacho-Montero, Intensive Care Med 2001 De Letter, Crit Care Med 2001 De Jonghe, JAMA 2002 Herridge, NEJM 2003 EP CLIN EP CLIN & EP CLIN CLIN High suspicion Persistent SIRS / MOF Muscle inactivity Hyperglycemia Corticosteroids Neuromuscular blockers consensual controversial Bednarik, J Neurol 2005 Van den Berghe, Neurology 2005 Heermans, AJRCCM 2007 EP EP EP Low suspicion Hypoalbuminemia Parenteral nutrition Hyperosmolarity ERR More anecdotal 9 studies

48 Prolonged immobilization is no longer «unavoidable» Early ICU mobility therapy Preventive or therapeutic? Effect on MV duration; but on CINM?? Bailey et al., Crit care Med 2007 Morris et al., Crit Care Med 2008 Needham et al., JAMA 2008 Effect of early mobility therapy is likely mediated by a reduction in incidence and severity of CINM

49 OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY Schweickert et al Lancet

50 NEUROMUSCULAR ELECTRICAL STIMULATION

51 DIRECT MUSCLE STIMULATION DM Ne Normal Decreased nerve excitability Decreased muscle excitability Bednarik et al - ICM

58 INTENSIVE INSULIN No effect on skeletal-muscle mitochondria Hermans et al AJRCCM Vanhorebeek et al - Lancet Improves ENMG but effect on weakness is unknown

59 ICUAP = MRC < 48/60 at day 7 after awakening Strength and muscle mass decrease after menopause De Jonghe et al - JAMA

60 ROLE OF GONADIC HORMONES Decreased testosterone activity may be associated with muscle weakness in men. This may result from Decrease in synthesis of testosterone increase in its aromatization (low plasma testosterone levels and high estradiol/testosterone ratio in men with ICUAP). In post-menopausal women, muscle weakness tended to be associated with Decrease in estradiol and FSH, both of which have anabolic properties. Sharshar et al ICM

61 HORMONES We found a relationships between IgF1 and severe ICU-AP Increased mortality with GH given at acute stage [Takala et al NEJM 1999]. But why not later? Sharshar et al - ICM

62 ENTITIES Latronico & Bolton Lancet Neurology

63 THERAPEUTIC Unloading Less/no sedation* Exercise* Electric muscle stimulation* Dietary supplementation Avoid denutrition Essential AA, Branched AA, Cysteine, Arginine, Glutamine Anti-proteolytic Curcumin (inhibition of UP), Glutamine Anti-oxidants Vitamin E, Allopurinol, Glutathione, statins Anti-Inflammatory and Immune Directed Therapies Anti-TNFα, soluble TNF-R Curcumin (diferuloylmethane; inhibition of NF-KB), Metabolic Glucose control* Hormones Growth hormone (IgF1) Testosterone and derivatives * Tested in CINM DHEA

64 Felix et al Sci Transl Med

65 Nature Communication

66 Nature Communication

67 NO SPECIFIC TREATMENT PREVENTION!!!! Schweickert and hall - Chest

68 CONCLUSION Frequent Secondary to myopathy, axonal neuropathy or both Clinical detection but ENMG useful for prognosis (neuropathy vs myopathy) Severe SevereIncreased mortality Weaning failure Long-term disability Preventive strategy Discontinuation of sedation Mobilization

78 CRITICAL ILLNESS - PROTRACTED PHASE 1. Decrease in plasma levels of anterior pituitary hormones 1. Decreased hormonal secretion from targeted organs (but no resistance) 2. Less hypothalamic stimulating factors van den Berghe

79 CRITICAL ILLNESS-ACUTE PHASE 1. Increased plasma levels of anterior pituitary hormones due to increase in stimulating hypothalamic factors and decrease in inhibiting factors (i.e. hormones from targeted organs) 1. Resistance to anterior pituitary hormones : decrease in release by targeted organs (except cortisol) 2. Increase in number and amplitude of secretion peak and loss of circadian rhythms van den Berghe
