Congenital adrenal hyperplasia: optimising cardiometabolic outcomes

Dear Colleague, medwireNewsFocus - Paediatric Endocrinology is pleased to share with you its latest review focusing on congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Here we review key publications, selected by Ieuan Hughes, Emeritus Professor of Paediatrics from Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, UK, which summarise the current knowledge and show how clinicians and the pharmaceutical industry are beginning to respond to this challenge. Martin Savage Emeritus Professor of Paediatric Endocrinology Barts and the London School of Medicine & Dentistry, UK. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia: optimising cardiometabolic outcomes Ieuan Hughes, MD FRCP FRCPCH FMedSci The introduction of glucocorticoid replacement for congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) has revolutionised the outlook for patients with this lifelong condition, preventing life-threatening salt-wasting crises. However, accumulating evidence shows persistently increased morbidity, and even mortality, in CAH patients, and links it not only to the disease, but also to the treatment. Please share this with your colleagues so they can also sign-up to receive free access to independent coverage of the latest clinical developments in Paediatric Endocrinology and Growth Disorders. This programme is made possible thanks to an educational grant received from Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.

The world's first Ventilation Autopilot

If you can?t read the Newsletter, please click here. INTELLiVENT-ASV® The world's first Ventilation Autopilot INTELLiVENT-ASV is a next-generation intelligent ventilation mode that automatically controls ventilation and oxygenation based on targets set by the clinician. Because of its unique characteristics, INTELLiVENT-ASV was classified as the best ventilation mode among all existing modes for providing safety and patient comfort, as well as for promoting weaning (Mireles-Cabodevila 2013). Since its introduction in 2010, INTELLiVENT-ASV has already been the topic of several studies. In addition, Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV), one of the core controllers of INTELLiVENT-ASV, has been discussed in over 30 studies. Studies show that INTELLiVENT-ASV: Is safe (Arnal 2012, Arnal 2013) Keeps patients in an optimal zone more often (Lellouche 2013) Automatically adapts to different lung conditions (Arnal 2013) Requires fewer interactions by clinicians (Beijers 2014) Improves oxygenation (Clavieras 2013) More facts about INTELLiVENT-ASV   References Mireles-Cabodevila E, Hatipoglu U, Chatburn RL.
