TERMINOLOGY

  • Coronovirus: A term for many virus that cause mild colds, with some severe
  • This virus is actually SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2)
  • COVID-19 is the illness caused by SARS-CoV-2 (ie HIV gives you AIDS)
  • In severe cases, it leads to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)

THE DATA SO FAR

  • The experiences around the world appear to be different
  • In UK and US Obesity is a major risk factor for poor
  • utcome- not seen as much in China
  • Different onsets:

1. Fast onset like flu 2. Mild symptoms 3. Severe respiratory failure

  • Fever- impact on metabolic rate (38.1-39℃ most common)
  • GI symptoms- variable reports: nausea, diarrhoea

TYPES OF PRECAUTIONS BASED ON TRANSMISSION

1. Contact- apply to all 2. Droplet 3. Airborne *If you are from outside of ANZ there may be slight differences in terminology and recommendations- check local guidance

22

Droplet Precautions: Surgical mask, protective eyewear, gown, gloves Airborne Precautions: P2/N95 mask, protective eyewear, gown, gloves. Note that the N95 mask be fit- checked on application to ensure no air leakage; an N95 mask will not fit well with facial hair

23

COVID-19 AND SPREAD IN HEALTHCARE

  • Emerging data indicates that SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is primarily spread via

respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes and has a “significant association with aerosol generating procedures (AGPs)”

  • Healthcare workers may be exposed to these particles through the inhalation of droplets,

conjunctival/mucosal contact, and touch contamination

AEROSOL GENERATING PROCEDURES AND RISK

  • Medical procedures that have the potential to create aerosols in addition to those that patients

regularly form from breathing, coughing, sneezing, or talking are AGPs

  • APGs can be grouped into 2 categories:

1. Procedures that create and disperse aerosols and 2. Procedures that induce the patient to produce aerosols

ANZICS COVID-19 GUIDELINE

  • We recommend that all intensive care personnel (medical, nursing, allied health,

cleaning and ward assistants) receive training in infection control and personal protection equipment.

  • We suggest N95 fit testing, if available, recognising that the evidence for fit testing

effectiveness is limited and that the variation and supply of N95 mask types will make any recommendation on fit testing difficult to implement from a practical perspective.

  • Application of PPE
  • We recommend that when a unit is caring for a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 patient that

all donning and doffing are supervised by an additional appropriately trained staff member.

MEDICAL MANAGEMENT FOR COVID-19

This Photoby Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA

29

GENERAL MANAGEMENT

  • Supportive care like any other patient with respiratory issues (but isolated!)
  • Majority are going to be ventilated
  • Some will receive other organ support (ie CVVHD)

30

slide-11
SLIDE 11

4/7/20 11

RESPIRATORY MANAGEMENT OF THE CRITICALLY ILL COVID19 PATIENT

  • Trial of HIFLO nasal oxygen
  • Early intubation with a lung protective strategy
  • Severe hypoxemia- increase peep
  • Deep sedation to improve ventilation
  • Prone position (usually 12-16 hours)
  • ? Recruitment manoeuvres
  • ?NO
  • ?ECMO

Rescue therapies

31

PRONING

  • A strategy used to improve oxygenation in ARDS
  • Decision to prone should be made early for best

response

  • Obesity (BMI > 40 kg/m2) can be a contraindication
  • It is resource intensive
  • Generally occurs for around 16 hours per day with 8

hours supine

PRONING

Complications (from Alfred Health Guideline)

  • Loss of airway
  • Tracheal tube obstruction
  • Tracheal tube dislodgment
  • Nerve compression (e.g. brachial plexus injury)
  • Crush injuries
  • Dislodging vascular catheters or drainage tubes
  • Corneal damage and loss of vision
  • Pressure sores (e.g. face, bony prominences)
  • Venous stasis (e.g. facial oedema)

WHAT HAVE WE SEEN FROM OVERSEAS?

  • Intolerance
  • High BGLs

40

ORAL/EATING

  • A high energy high protein diet should be standard
  • Oral supplements should be standard

41

HIFLO

  • Can dry and irritate the mucosa
  • Unwell patient so appetite, nausea,

ability to eat can be an issue

  • Fluids generally well tolerated

VENTILATED

  • Start early (within 24 hours) but don’t worry too much about how much you get in
  • Polymeric formula is fine
  • Build up to reach target rate by 3-5 days (pending tolerance, clinical situation)
  • If going to survive, more aggressive approach to nutrition after the initial severity of

illness is managed

  • Deep sedation- increased intolerance possible

43

PRONE

1. Pause EN prior to re-positioning, aspirate NGT 2. Restart EN after re-position 3. Continue to monitor GRVs (with a threshold < 300ml) 4. Increased intolerance can be observed 5. I don’t recommend prophylactic prokinetics (personal opinion) 6. NJ feeds are used as routine in prone position in some units

44

MANAGEMENT OF INTOLERANCE

  • Increased gastric intolerance= more severely unwell (in COVID-19 and general)
  • Patients receiving a lot of sedation (and sometimes paralysis)= increased intolerance
  • ? An other mechanism related to the virus

1. Use a GRV cut off off 300-500ml 2. Dual prokinetics if you get into trouble (not before) 3. Do not concentrate EN- may delay gastric emptying further. If anything, less concentrated is better for intolerance 4. NJ or supp PN if it doesn’t resolve

45

RESTRICTED FLUID REQUESTS

  • These patients are very sick- medical treatment to help them improve takes priority
  • If it appears the patient is going to survive and you are not happy with the feeding

regime, that is the time to raise a plan to transition to one that you are happy about

  • More concentrated EN can reduce gastric emptying further (increased intolerance)
  • Management of hypernatremia:
  • Free water is most effective in first instance (depends on cause of the hypernatraemia)
  • Conc formula often compromises nutrition provision (low protein, but is low sodium)
  • Low sodium specific formula as a last option if refractory

46

ARDS SPECIFIC NUTRITION

47

LOW CHO HIGH FAT EN

1. Avoid overfeeding (check maximal CHO infusion rates provided by the EN rate) 2. Increased CO2 production 3. Needs to be excreted (blown off) 4. Can prolong ventilation time 5. If you think you might be

  • verfeeding:

a. Critically assess your energy target b. reduce EN for a specified time (24-48 hours) and then re-discuss c. If not change in ventilation parameters/CO2- return to previous plan

ANZ COVID19 NUTRITION GUIDELINE

  • Thank you to
  • Lee-anne Chapple and Kate Fetterplace
  • All other collaborators
  • We have summarized and synthesized current evidence into

practical recommendations in a very short period- it is not perfect! It will also evolve

  • 30 recommendations
  • Available: https://www.auspen.org.au/auspen-

news/2020/4/6/covid-19-information

50

  • We recommend commencing enteral nutrition (EN) support using an algorithm

with a set rate for up to the first 5 days of ICU admission

51

slide-18
SLIDE 18

4/7/20 18

52

WHY?

Energy and protein targets:

  • We recommend commencing enteral nutrition (EN) support using an algorithm with a

set rate for up to the first 5 days of ICU admission

  • International guidelines recommend a slow increase to target in the early phase of illness (and

these patients are particularly unwell)

  • There is no evidence that early trophic feeding for up to 5 days leads to poor outcomes
  • Staff risk and staff workload
  • Reduced use of PPE
  • High mortality

53

ANZ COVID19 NUTRITION GUIDELINE

Energy and protein targets:

  • We recommend providing 25 kcal/kg bodyweight/day after the first 5 days of illness (and up to

30 kcal/kg bodyweight/day for severely unwell patients or those who have a prolonged admission e.g. ECMO, CRRT, or length of MV >7days) and protein prescription of at least 1.2 g/kg bodyweight/day. Insertion of an enteral tube:

  • We recommend using PPE for full airborne precautions during the insertion of nasogastric tubes

(NGT) tubes, and unnecessary NGT changes avoided. Commencement of nutrition support:

  • We recommend the use of an energy-dense EN formula (1.25-1.5 kcal/ml).

54

slide-19
SLIDE 19

4/7/20 19

ANZ COVID19 NUTRITION GUIDELINE

Monitoring of gastric residual volumes (GRV):

  • We recommended continuing to measure GRVs in COVID-19 where appropriate PPE is available

(airborne precautions) but using a threshold of less than 300ml and measuring 8 hourly.

  • We recommend ceasing measurements when GRVs have been less than 300ml for > 48 hours in

patients who are not prone. Prone:

  • We recommend that EN is paused and the NGT be aspirated prior to any position changes EN should

be re-commence as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary interruption to feeding.

  • We recommend GRV monitoring continue 8 hourly while in the prone position, even if intolerance is

not an issue.

55

ANZ COVID19 NUTRITION GUIDELINE

  • Continuing nutrition support
  • Dietetic assessment and reviews
  • Nutrition for non-ventilated patients and those receiving high flow nasal oxygen
  • Ward recommendations
  • Contingency planning and workforce considerations

56

PANDEMIC DIETETICS VS IDEAL DIETETICS

  • Now is not the time for perfection
  • This is an unprecedented time
  • The bar must be lower
  • We are at risk too- PPE is the lowest form of hazard control

57

STAGE 5- CRITICAL

  • We are going to develop a new plan
  • Triaging of workflow (including off-site workers)
  • Contingency for feed and equipment shortages
