Abstract Background Circulatory shock and multi-organ failure remain major contributors to morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients and are associated with insufficient oxygen availability in the tissue. Intrinsic mechanisms to improve tissue perfusion, such as up-regulation of functional capillary density (FCD) and red blood cell velocity (RBCv), have been identified as maneuvers to improve oxygen extraction by the tissues; however, their role in circulatory shock and potential use as resuscitation targets remains unknown. To fill this gap, we examined the baseline and maximum recruitable FCD and RBCv in response to a topical nitroglycerin stimulus (FCDNG, RBCvNG) in patients with and without circulatory shock to test whether this may be a method to identify the presence and magnitude of a microcirculatory reserve capacity important for identifying a resuscitation target. Methods Sublingual handheld vital microscopy was performed after initial resuscitation in mechanically ventilated patients consecutively admitted to a tertiary medical ICU. FCD and RBCv were quantified using an automated computer vision algorithm (MicroTools). Patients with circulatory shock were retrospectively identified via standardized hemodynamic and clinical criteria and compared to patients without circulatory shock. Results 54 patients (57 ± 14y, BMI 26.3 ± 4.9 kg/m2, SAPS 56 ± 19, 65% male) were included, 13 of whom presented with circulatory shock. Both groups had similar cardiac index, mean arterial pressure, RBCv, and RBCvNG. Heart rate (p |
