Abstract
The intensive care unit (ICU) was born from the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). In today's hospital systems, there remains a lot of overlap in the care missions of each location. The patient populations share many similarities and many of the same care, technology, and care protocols apply to patients in both units. As shown by the COVID-19 pandemic, there is immense value in maintaining protocols, processes, and staffing models for the safe care of ICU patients in the PACU when ICU demands exceed capacity.

Postoperative pulmonary complications with high versus standard FiO 2 in adult patients undergoing major abdominal surgery: A noninferiority trial. Surgery 2024; 175:536-542. [PMID: 38016902 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2023.10.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the possible clinical benefit of high intraoperative oxygen therapy on surgical site infection, the effect on postoperative respiratory function is debatable. However, it remains yet to be elucidated whether hyperoxia due to a high fraction of inspired oxygen used in conjunction with lung protective ventilation can lead to increased incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS In this noninferiority randomized trial, an intraoperative high fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.8 (group H) was compared to a standard fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.3 to 0.4 (group S) in adult patients undergoing major elective or emergency surgery. A lung protective ventilation strategy was employed in all patients, including volume control ventilation with a tidal volume of 6 to 8 mL/kg of predicted body weight, respiratory rate of 12 beats per minute, and positive end-expiratory pressure of 5 to 8 cm H2O. Postoperative pulmonary complications were assessed on postoperative days 3 and 5 by the Melbourne group scale. RESULTS In this trial, n = 226 patients were randomized; among them, 130 patients underwent routine surgery, and 96 patients underwent emergency surgery. The median (interquartile range) of the patients was 48 (35-58) years, and 47.3% were female. Melbourne group scale scores at postoperative day 3 (median [interquartile range] 2 [1-4] in group S vs 2 [1-3] in group H; the difference in median [95% confidence interval] 0 [0, -1]; P = .13) and day 5 (median [interquartile range] 1 (0-3) in group S vs 1 [0-3] in group H; the difference in median [95% confidence interval] 0 [0, 0.5]; P = .34) were statistically similar in both the groups and the upper margin was within the predefined margin of 1. Incidence of surgical site infection (P = .46), postoperative hospital stay (P = .29), and days alive without antibiotic therapy at postoperative day 28 (P = .95) were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION High intraoperative fiO2 was noninferior to standard fiO2 in postoperative pulmonary complications in adult patients undergoing major surgery.

Effects of low versus high inspired oxygen fraction on myocardial injury after transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A randomized clinical trial. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0281232. [PMID: 37531368 PMCID: PMC10395822 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxygen therapy is used in various clinical situation, but its clinical outcomes are inconsistent. The relationship between the fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and clinical outcomes has not been well studied. We investigated the association of FIO2 (low vs. high) and myocardial injury in patients undergoing TAVI. METHODS Adults undergoing transfemoral TAVI under general anesthesia were randomly assigned to receive FIO2 0.3 or 0.8 during procedure. The primary outcome was the area under the curve (AUC) for high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) during the first 72 h following TAVI. Secondary outcomes included the AUC for postprocedural creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB), acute kidney injury and recovery, conduction abnormalities, pacemaker implantation, stroke, myocardial infarction, and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Between October 2017 and April 2022, 72 patients were randomized and 62 were included in the final analysis (n = 31 per group). The median (IQR) AUC for hs-cTnI in the first 72 h was 42.66 (24.82-65.44) and 71.96 (35.38-116.34) h·ng/mL in the FIO2 0.3 and 0.8 groups, respectively (p = 0.066). The AUC for CK-MB in the first 72 h was 257.6 (155.6-322.0) and 342.2 (195.4-485.2) h·ng/mL in the FIO2 0.3 and 0.8 groups, respectively (p = 0.132). Acute kidney recovery, defined as an increase in the estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 25% of baseline in 48 h, was more common in the FIO2 0.3 group (65% vs. 39%, p = 0.042). Other clinical outcomes were comparable between the groups. CONCLUSIONS The FIO2 level did not have a significant effect on periprocedural myocardial injury following TAVI. However, considering the marginal results, a benefit of low FIO2 during TAVI could not be ruled out.

Abstract
Background Controversy exists regarding the effects of a high versus a low intraoperative fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) in adults undergoing general anesthesia. This systematic review and meta‐analysis investigated the effect of a high versus a low FiO2 on postoperative outcomes. Methods PubMed and Embase were searched on March 22, 2022 for randomized clinical trials investigating the effect of different FiO2 levels in adults undergoing general anesthesia for non‐cardiac surgery. Two investigators independently reviewed studies for relevance, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. Meta‐analyses were performed for relevant outcomes, and potential effect measure modification was assessed in subgroup analyses and meta‐regression. The evidence certainty was evaluated using GRADE. Results This review included 25 original trials investigating the effect of a high (mostly 80%) versus a low (mostly 30%) FiO2. Risk of bias was intermediate for all trials. A high FiO2 did not result in a significant reduction in surgical site infections (OR: 0.91, 95% CI 0.81–1.02 [p = .10]). No effect was found for all other included outcomes, including mortality (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 0.90–1.79 [p = .18]) and hospital length of stay (mean difference = 0.03 days, 95% CI −0.25 to 0.30 [p = .84). Results from subgroup analyses and meta‐regression did not identify any clear effect modifiers across outcomes. The certainty of evidence (GRADE) was rated as low for most outcomes. Conclusions In adults undergoing general anesthesia for non‐cardiac surgery, a high FiO2 did not improve outcomes including surgical site infections, length of stay, or mortality. However, the certainty of the evidence was assessed as low.

Does Higher Intraoperative Fraction of Inspired Oxygen Improve Complication Rates Following Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction? Aesthet Surg J Open Forum 2022; 4:ojac039. [PMID: 35662907 PMCID: PMC9155143 DOI: 10.1093/asjof/ojac039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The surgical literature debates about whether an average intraoperative fractional inspired level of oxygen (FiO2) greater than 80% confers lower postsurgical complication rates. Although some evidence demonstrates minimal or no difference in short-term mortality or surgical site infections, few studies suggest negative long-term outcomes. Objectives To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study examining the relationship between intraoperative FiO2 levels and postoperative outcomes in the setting of immediate prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction. Methods The authors retrospectively reviewed the complication profiles of 309 patients who underwent prepectoral 2-stage breast reconstruction following mastectomy between 2018 and 2021 at a single institution. Two cohorts were created based on whether intraoperative FiO2 was greater than 80% or less than or equal to 80%. Complication rates between the cohorts were analyzed using Chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, and multivariable logistic regressions. Variables examined included demographic information; smoking history; preexisting comorbidities; history of chemotherapy, radiation, or axillary lymph node dissection; and perioperative information. Results Chi-squared and multivariable regression analysis demonstrated no significant difference between cohorts in complication rates other than reoperation. Reoperation rates were significantly increased in the FiO2 greater than 80% cohort (P = 0.018). Multivariable logistic regression also demonstrated that the use of acellular dermal matrix was significantly associated with increased postoperative complications (odds ratio 11.985; P = 0.034). Conclusions Complication rates did not statistically differ in patients with varying intraoperative FiO2 levels outside of reoperation rates. In the setting of implant-based prepectoral breast reconstruction, hyperoxygenation likely does not lead to improved postsurgical outcomes. Level of Evidence 3
