Metabolic rate (top) and nitrogen excretion (bottom) show a dose–response relationship with respect to the severity of the stress. Critical care can ameliorate but cannot obviate these changes. This figure, adapted from data obtained nearly half a century ago, emphasizes the long-lasting consequences of major physiologic stress. (Data from Kinney JM: Energy deficits in acute illness and injury. In Morgan AP (ed): Proceedings of a Conference on Energy Metabolism and Body Fuel Utilization. Cambridge, MA, Harvard University Press, 1966, p.
Fatty acids are no longer used efficiently as metabolic substrates, and feeding of fat can cause deposition into the pancreas, liver, and other organs. Bedside assessment shows a familiar constellation of intracellular depletion (of water and potassium), insulin resistance, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercalcemia, hyperlactatemia, and widespread hypoproteinemia. What has become clear in recent years is that the endocrine profile also undergoes characteristic changes as the patient lapses into sustained multiple organ dysfunction (Fig.
As discussed previously, global increases in cytoplasmic Ca2+ cause vasoconstriction, but spatially restricted increases in cytosolic Ca2+ may cause vasodilation. Release of Ca2+ by the ryanodine receptor in SR causes a localized area of very high Ca2+ concentration that activates BKCa2+ channels. The opening of these channels (Fig. 7) hyperpolarizes the cell membrane, thereby closing voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and relaxing the cell. In this manner, the constrictor action of several vasoconstrictors is buffered.
