No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Diagnostic and risk stratification are limited in emergencies. The measurement of microcirculation might identify patients with poor perfusion but compensated macrocirculation such as in beginning shock. This proof-of-concept study will examine whether sublingual prehospital sidestream dark field microscopy is feasible. This prospective observational study will include patients receiving medical aid by an emergency ambulance who had a spontaneous circulation and offer access to the sublingual mucosa. Sublingual measurement of microcirculation will be performed using a sidestream dark field camera. Video-quality will be evaluated with MIQS (microcirculation image quality score). AVA 4.3C software will calculate microcirculatory parameters.
