ABSTRACT
Introduction: the existing evidence is not conclusive regarding the eosinophil count as a marker of ICU mortality. Nevertheless, the pathophysiological mechanisms that accompany the eosinophil activation lead to cardiopulmonary and thromboembolic complications that are potentially lethal.
Develop: a narrative review was made about eosinophilia in critical care patients. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Medline, Cochrane and RIMA, looking for articles both in English and Spanish, encompassing from January 1, 2000, to April 30, 2017, and using as keywords eosinophilia, critical care, pathophysiology and treatment. A critical review of the evidence was done following GRADE (Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation), determining the quality of the evidence and the grade of recommendation. A total of 25 papers were included. Two separate reviewers selected the publications according to their relevance and fit to the predetermined objectives, using their respective titles and summaries. When decisions were divergent, a consensus about the decision was searched for, and required to proceed. The reference list of the different studies was appropriately verified.
Conclusions: eosinophilia may serve as a supporting diagnostic parameter and it can become very useful in certain scenarios.
