Myopathies in critically ill patients are increasingly documented. Various animal models of chronic sepsis have been employed to investigate reduced membrane excitability or altered isometric contractility of skeletal muscle. In contrast, immediate changes occurring during acute sepsis are significantly under-characterised; L-type Ca2+ channel function or isotonic shortening are examples. We recorded...
The pathogenesis of myopathies occurring in critically ill patients (critical illness myopathy, CIM) is poorly understood. Both local and systemic responses to sepsis and other severe insults to the body are presumed to be involved but the precise mechanisms by which muscle function is impaired are far from clear. To elucidate such mechanisms we investigated the effects of blood serum fractions (5...
