Liu D, Li SC. Nursing of a patient with multiple primary cancers: A case report and review of literature. World J Clin Oncol 2024; 15:1315-1323. [DOI: 10.5306/wjco.v15.i10.1315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 08/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the occurrence of multiple primary cancers (MPC) is not exceedingly common, it is not rare in clinical practice. In recent years, there has been a notable increase in its incidence. The frequent confusion between MPC and tumor metastasis or recurrence often leads to delays in diagnosis and treatment. This study aimed to enhance understanding of MPC, improve diagnostic accuracy, guide precise clinical treatment, and implement a case management nursing model (CMNM) to facilitate quick patient recovery.
CASE SUMMARY A 61-year-old female patient presented with persistent upper abdominal pain lasting over 2 months. Gastroscopy revealed the presence of both gastric and duodenal cancers. Following a thorough evaluation, the patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, cholecystectomy, and total gastrectomy. Post-surgery, an individualized case management nursing approach was applied, leading to a successful recovery. Three months after the surgery, follow-up examinations showed no signs of recurrence.
CONCLUSION The CMNM effectively promoted rapid patient recovery, enhanced the quality of orthopedic nursing services, and accelerated postoperative recovery, ultimately leading to increased patient satisfaction with nursing care.

Development and validation of a nomogram for predicting pulmonary complications in elderly patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Aging Clin Exp Res 2024; 36:197. [PMID: 39368046 PMCID: PMC11455794 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-024-02844-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 10/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) remain a prevalent concern among elderly patients undergoing surgery, with a notably higher incidence observed in elderly patients undergoing thoracic surgery. This study aimed to develop a nomogram to predict the risk of PPCs in this population. METHODS A total of 2963 elderly patients who underwent thoracic surgery were enrolled and randomly divided into a training cohort (80%, n = 2369) or a validation cohort (20%, n = 593). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify risk factors for PPCs, and a nomogram was developed based on the findings from the training cohort. The validation cohort was used to validate the model. The predictive accuracy of the model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, area under ROC (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). RESULTS A total of 918 (31.0%) patients reported PPCs. Nine independent risk factors for PPCs were identified: preoperative presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), elevated leukocyte count, higher partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) level, surgical site, thoracotomy, intraoperative hypotension, blood loss > 100 mL, surgery duration > 180 min, and malignant tumor. The AUC value for the training cohort was 0.739 (95% CI: 0.719-0.762), and it was 0.703 for the validation cohort (95% CI: 0.657-0.749). The P-values for the Hosmer-Lemeshow test were 0.633 and 0.144 for the training and validation cohorts, respectively, indicating a notable calibration curve fit. The DCA curve indicated that the nomogram could be applied clinically if the risk threshold was between 12% and 84%, which was found to be between 8% and 82% in the validation cohort. CONCLUSION This study highlighted the pressing need for early detection of PPCs in elderly patients undergoing thoracic surgery. The nomogram exhibited promising predictive efficacy for PPCs in elderly patients undergoing thoracic surgery, enabling the identification of high-risk patients and consequently aiding in the implementation of preventive interventions.

Exergame-based rehabilitation for cancer patients undergoing abdominal surgery: Effects on pain, anxiety, depression, and fatigue - A pilot study. Eur J Oncol Nurs 2024; 72:102665. [PMID: 39018959 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejon.2024.102665] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to determine the efficacy of an exergame rehabilitation program on pain, anxiety or depression, and fatigue in oncology patients undergoing abdominal surgery. METHODS The randomized controlled trial evaluated the efficacy of exergame rehabilitation on Pain, Anxiety, Depression, and Fatigue in oncology patients undergoing abdominal surgery. Patients were recruited from October 2022-March 2023 and were randomly assigned to the intervention group (postoperative traditional rehabilitation plus an exergame rehabilitation program) or control group (postoperative traditional rehabilitation). Data were collected at three different times: on admission, in the first 48 h, and on the 7th day after surgery. Primary outcomes were evaluated and monitored with different validated instruments: numeric rating scale (NRS) for pain, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to assess the level of anxiety and depression, and the Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS) to assess physical and psychological fatigue. The length of stay and program completion were secondary outcomes. RESULTS A total of 128 postoperative patients were recruited. Of these, 58 patients were excluded from the study due to clinical complications related to the surgical procedure (n = 53) or healthcare staff-related reasons (n = 5). Both the control and intervention groups were the same size (n = 35). Lower pain scores were observed on the 7th postoperative day in the group subject to the "exergame rehabilitation program" (p = 0.006). No statistically significant differences were observed for anxiety and depression between the 2 groups. Regarding fatigue, statistically significant differences were observed on admission (p = 0.03), which disappeared 48 h after surgery (p = 0.143). Differences between the groups were observed again on the 7th day after surgery (p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS The intervention using exergames was effective in reducing the postoperative pain of the patient undergoing major abdominal surgery and in restoring the levels of fatigue before surgical intervention. However, no differences were observed for anxiety or depression. Future studies with larger samples should be carried out.

Esketamine mitigates mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease rats via inhibition of the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway and reduction of oxidative stress. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 139:112725. [PMID: 39059100 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate esketamine's impact on inflammation and oxidative stress in ventilated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) rats, examining its regulatory mechanisms. METHODS Rats were divided into four groups: control group (Con), COPD model group (M), COPD model with saline treatment group (M+S), and COPD model with esketamine treatment group (M+K), with 12 rats in each group. After two months, all rats underwent anesthesia and mechanical ventilation. Group M+K received 5 mg/kg esketamine intravenously, while Group M+S received the same volume of saline. Lung tissues were collected for analysis two hours later, including airway peak pressure, wet-to-dry(W/D) ratio, lung permeability index(LPI), hematoxylin and eosin(H&E) staining, and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). Tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α), interleukin-6(IL-6), interleukin-8(IL-8), and interleukin-10(IL-10) levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA); phosphorylated Nuclear Factor Kappa B(p-NF-κB), mitogen-activated protein kinase 14(p38), phosphorylated p38 (p-p38), c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK), and phosphorylated JNK (p-JNK) expressions by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry; and malondialdehyde(MDA), myeloperoxidase(MPO), and superoxide dismutase(SOD) levels were also measured by corresponding biochemical assays. RESULTS Lung specimens from groups M, M+S, and M+K manifested hallmark histopathological features of COPD. Compared with group Con, group M displayed increased peak airway pressure, W/D ratio, and LPI. In group M+K, compared with group M, esketamine significantly reduced the W/D ratio, LPI, and concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 while concurrently elevating IL-10 levels. Furthermore, the treatment attenuated the activation of the NF-κB and MAPK pathways, indicated by decreased levels of p-NF-κB, p-p38, and p-JNK.Additionally, compared to group M, group M+K showed decreased MDA and MPO levels and increased SOD levels in lung tissue. CONCLUSION Esketamine attenuates mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury in COPD rat models by inhibiting the MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway and reducing oxidative stress.

Effect of preoperative natural killer cell on postoperative pulmonary complications in patients of lung cancer - A single-center retrospective cohort study. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 138:112564. [PMID: 38943978 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of preoperative natural killer (NK) cell abnormalities on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer is still unclear. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the preoperative NK cell ratio and PPCs. METHODS The patients who underwent thoracoscopic radical resection for lung cancer were divided into a normal group and an abnormal group according to whether the proportion of preoperative NK cells was within the reference range. The main outcome was the incidence of PPCs during postoperative hospitalization. The demographic and perioperative data were collected. Propensity score matching was used to exclude systematic bias. Univariate logistic regression was used to test the relationship between the preoperative NK cell ratio and the incidence of PPCs. The restrictive cubic spline curve was used to analyze the dose-effect relationship between the preoperative NK cell ratio and the incidence of PPCs. RESULTS A total of 4161 patients were included. After establishing a matching cohort, 910 patients were included in the statistical analysis. The incidence of PPCs in the abnormal group was greater than that in the normal group (55.2% vs. 31.6%). The incidence of PPCs first decreased and then increased with increasing NK cell ratio. The proportion of patients with Grade 3 or higher PPCs in the normal group was lower than that in the abnormal group [108 (23.7%) vs. 223 (49%)]. The indwelling time of the thoracic drainage tube in the abnormal group was longer than that in the normal group [3 (3, 4) vs. 3 (3, 5)]. A preoperative abnormal NK cell ratio constituted a risk factor for PPCs in each subgroup. CONCLUSION Lung cancer patients with an abnormal proportion of peripheral blood NK cells before surgery were more likely to develop PPCs, their disease degree was more severe, and they had a prolonged duration of chest tube indwelling. Compared with those with abnormally high NK cell ratios, those with abnormally low NK cell ratios had more pronounced PPCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to identify the risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing major abdominal surgery and to investigate the relationship between patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) and PPCs. DESIGN A retrospective study. METHOD Clinical data and demographic information of elderly patients (aged ≥ 60 years) who underwent upper abdominal surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from 2017 to 2019 were retrospectively collected. Patients with PPCs were identified using the Melbourne Group Scale Version 2 scoring system. A directed acyclic graph was used to identify the potential confounders, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify independent risk factors for PPCs. Propensity score matching was utilized to compare PPC rates between patients with and without PCA, as well as between intravenous PCA (PCIA) and epidural PCA (PCEA) groups. RESULTS A total of 1,467 patients were included, with a PPC rate of 8.7%. Multivariable analysis revealed that PCA was an independent protective factor for PPCs in elderly patients undergoing major abdominal surgery (odds ratio = 0.208, 95% confidence interval = 0.121 to 0.358; P < 0.001). After matching, patients receiving PCA demonstrated a significantly lower overall incidence of PPCs (8.6% vs. 26.3%, P < 0.001), unplanned transfer to the intensive care unit (1.1% vs. 8.4%, P = 0.001), and in-hospital mortality (0.7% vs. 5.3%, P = 0.021) compared to those not receiving PCA. No significant difference in outcomes was observed between patients receiving PCIA or PCEA after matching. CONCLUSION Patient-controlled analgesia, whether administered intravenously or epidurally, is associated with a reduced risk of PPCs in elderly patients undergoing major upper abdominal surgery.

Abstract
Respiratory failure is a common perioperative complication. The risk of respiratory failure can be reduced with effective preoperative evaluation, preventative measures, and knowledge of evidence-based management techniques. Effective preoperative screening methods include ARISCAT scoring, OSA screening, and the LAS VEGAS score (including the ASA physical status score). Evaluation by the six-minute walk test and a routine pulmonary physical exam has been shown to be effective at predicting postoperative pulmonary complications, whereas evidence on the predictive power of pulmonary function tests and chest radiography has been inconclusive. Preoperative smoking cessation and lung expansion maneuvers have been shown to decrease the risk of pulmonary complications postoperatively. Intraoperative management techniques that decrease the pulmonary complication risk include neuromuscular blockade reversal with sugammadex, limiting surgical times to less than 3 h when possible, lung-protective ventilation techniques, and multimodal analgesia to decrease opioid usage. In the immediate postoperative period, providers should be prepared to quickly treat bronchospasm, hypoventilation, and upper airway obstruction. For post-surgical patients who remain in the hospital, the risk of pulmonary complications can be decreased with lung expansion techniques, adequate analgesia, automated continuous postoperative ward monitoring, non-invasive ventilatory support, and early mobilization. This article was written to analyze the available literature on this topic in order to learn and practice the prevention of perioperative respiratory failure when caring for patients on a daily basis.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed is to evaluate the impact of pre- and postoperative pulmonary-related training, including respiratory and aerobic training, on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after radical resection of gastric cancer (GC). METHODS We conducted a randomized controlled trial of 121 participants who received a systematic, comprehensive, high-intensity pulmonary exercise regimen for 5 days preoperatively and at least 5 days postoperatively. The control group received standard preoperative care. We analyzed the occurrence of PPCs in both groups as the primary outcome RESULTS: A total of 43 of 121 participants (35.5%) were diagnosed as having PPCs, and the incidence of PPCs was markedly lower in the training group than in the control group (26.2% [16 of 61] vs 45.0% [27 of 60]; P = .031). Moreover, the duration of the postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the training group (8.69 ± 1.92 days) than the control group (9.57 ± 2.16 days; P = .020) and reduced hospitalization costs, amounting to €9605.1 ± €2556.26 in the training group and €10,594.6 ± €2560.7 in the control group (P = .035). CONCLUSION Our study established that a perioperative pulmonary-related training notably diminishes the incidence of PPCs, curtails the duration of hospitalization, and mitigates hospitalization expenses for patients undergoing GC surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite low mortality for elective procedures in the United States and developed countries, some patients have unexpected care escalations (UCE) following post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) discharge. Studies indicate patient risk factors for UCE, but determining which factors are most important is unclear. Machine learning (ML) can predict clinical events. We hypothesized that ML could predict patient UCE after PACU discharge in surgical patients and identify specific risk factors. METHODS We conducted a single center, retrospective analysis of all patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (elective and emergent). We collected data from pre-operative visits, intra-operative records, PACU admissions, and the rate of UCE. We trained a ML model with this data and tested the model on an independent data set to determine its efficacy. Finally, we evaluated the individual patient and clinical factors most likely to predict UCE risk. RESULTS Our study revealed that ML could predict UCE risk which was approximately 5% in both the training and testing groups. We were able to identify patient risk factors such as patient vital signs, emergent procedure, ASA Status, and non-surgical anesthesia time as significant variable. We plotted Shapley values for significant variables for each patient to help determine which of these variables had the greatest effect on UCE risk. Of note, the UCE risk factors identified frequently by ML were in alignment with anesthesiologist clinical practice and the current literature. CONCLUSIONS We used ML to analyze data from a single-center, retrospective cohort of non-cardiac surgical patients, some of whom had an UCE. ML assigned risk prediction for patients to have UCE and determined perioperative factors associated with increased risk. We advocate to use ML to augment anesthesiologist clinical decision-making, help decide proper disposition from the PACU, and ensure the safest possible care of our patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are among the most severe complications following total hip arthroplasty revision (THAR), imposing significant burdens on individuals and society. This study examined the prevalence and risk factors of PPCs following THAR using the NIS database, identifying specific pulmonary complications (SPCs) and their associated risks, including pneumonia, acute respiratory failure (ARF), and pulmonary embolism (PE). METHODS The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database was used for this cross-sectional study. The analysis included patients undergoing THAR based on NIS from 2010 to 2019. Available data include demographic data, diagnostic and procedure codes, total charges, length of stay (LOS), hospital information, insurance information, and discharges. RESULTS From the NIS database, a total of 112,735 THAR patients in total were extracted. After THAR surgery, there was a 2.62% overall incidence of PPCs. Patients with PPCs after THAR demonstrated increased LOS, total charges, usage of Medicare, and in-hospital mortality. The following variables have been determined as potential risk factors for PPCs: advanced age, pulmonary circulation disorders, fluid and electrolyte disorders, weight loss, congestive heart failure, metastatic cancer, other neurological disorders (encephalopathy, cerebral edema, multiple sclerosis etc.), coagulopathy, paralysis, chronic pulmonary disease, renal failure, acute heart failure, deep vein thrombosis, acute myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease, stroke, continuous trauma ventilation, cardiac arrest, blood transfusion, dislocation of joint, and hemorrhage. CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed a 2.62% incidence of PPCs, with pneumonia, ARF, and PE accounting for 1.24%, 1.31%, and 0.41%, respectively. A multitude of risk factors for PPCs were identified, underscoring the importance of preoperative optimization to mitigate PPCs and enhance postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study is to identify and evaluate the risk factors associated with the development of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy under general anesthesia. METHODS The retrospective study consecutively included elderly patients (≥ 70 years old) who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy at Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 1, 2018 to August 31, 2023. The demographic characteristics, the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative parameters were collected and analyzed using multivariate logistic regression to identify the prediction of risk factors for PPCs. RESULTS 322 patients were included for analysis, and 115 patients (35.7%) developed PPCs. Multifactorial regression analysis showed that ASA ≥ III (P = 0.006, 95% CI: 1.230 ∼ 3.532), duration of one-lung ventilation (P = 0.033, 95% CI: 1.069 ∼ 4.867), smoking (P = 0.027, 95% CI: 1.072 ∼ 3.194) and COPD (P = 0.015, 95% CI: 1.332 ∼ 13.716) are independent risk factors for PPCs after thoracoscopic lobectomy in elderly patients. CONCLUSION Risk factors for PPCs are ASA ≥ III, duration of one-lung ventilation, smoking and COPD in elderly patients over 70 years old undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy. It is necessary to pay special attention to these patients to help optimize the allocation of resources and enhance preventive efforts.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES With the aging of the Japanese population, patients with athetoid cerebral palsy (ACP) are getting older, and the rate of surgery for CSM is increasing in ACP patients. However, postoperative complications of such surgery among adult patients with ACP have not been reported yet. We investigated postoperative complications of surgery for CSM with ACP and compared them with those of surgery for CSM without ACP using a national inpatient database of Japan. METHODS Using the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database, we identified 61382 patients who underwent surgery for CSM from July 2010 to March 2018. We examined patient backgrounds, surgical procedures, and type of hospital, and a 4:1 propensity score matching was performed to compare the outcomes between the non-ACP and ACP groups. RESULTS There were 60 847 patients without ACP and 535 patients with ACP. The mean age was 68.5 years in the non-ACP group and 55 years in the ACP group. The percentages of patients who underwent fusion surgery were 21.6% and 68.8% in the non-ACP and ACP groups, respectively. The 4:1 propensity score matching selected 1858 in the non-ACP group and 465 in the ACP group. The ACP group was more likely to have postoperative urinary tract infection (.4% vs 2.8%, P < .001), postoperative pneumonia (.4% vs 2.4%, P < .001), and 90-day readmission for reoperation (1.9% vs 4.3%, P = .003). CONCLUSIONS We found that ACP patients were more vulnerable to postoperative complications and reoperation after CSM than non-ACP patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) increase the risk of morbidity and mortality in patients who underwent oral cancer surgery with free flap reconstruction. The association between PPC and preoperative risk factors has been investigated; however, reports on intraoperative factors are limited. Therefore, we investigated PPC incidence and its associated preoperative and intraoperative risk factors in these patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed medical records of patients who underwent free flap reconstruction between 2009 and 2019. PPC was defined as presence of atelectasis, pneumonia, and respiratory failure based on radiological confirmation and clinical symptoms during hospitalization. Mortality, hospital stay, preoperative factors (including age and tumor stages), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, and intraoperative factors (including intraoperative fluids and medications) were recorded. RESULTS PPC incidence among the 993 patients included in this study was 25.8% (256 patients). Six patients with PPCs died; death was not observed among patients without PPCs (p < 0.001). Patients with PPCs had longer hospitalization than those without PPCs (30.3 vs 23.3 days; p < 0.001). Tumor stage (stage I: reference; stage II [OR]: 3.3, p = 0.019; stage III: 4.4, p = 0.002; stage IV: 4.8, p = 0.002), age (OR: 1.0; p < 0.001), and ASA grade >2 (OR: 1.4; p = 0.020) were independent risk factors of PPC; using labetalol was a borderline significant factor (OR: 1.4; p = 0.050). CONCLUSION The PPC incidence was 25.8% in patients undergoing oral cancer surgery with free flap reconstruction. Tumor stage, age, and ASA >2 were risk factors of developing PPC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) need to be placed in Trendelenburg position, which results in cranial displacement of the diaphragm and decreases functional residual capacity and pulmonary compliance. Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can increase ventilation in the dorsal area, reduce the occurrence of atelectasis and improve oxygenation. However, due to individual differences, inappropriate PEEP will cause lung injury and even hemodynamic instability. Therefore, our study is to evaluate the efficacy of individualized PEEP in RALP. METHODS We randomly recruited 48 patients and divided them into driving pressure-guided individualized PEEP group (P group, individualized PEEP) or traditional lung-protective ventilation strategy group (C group, tidal volume 8 mL/kg combined with PEEP of 5cmH2O). The primary outcome was the PaO2/FiO2 before extubation. The secondary outcomes included individualized PEEP values in the P group, the results of arterial blood gas analysis, respiratory mechanics parameters and vital sign parameters. Other measurements included intraoperative vasoactive drug dosage, length of stay, postoperative SpO2, leukocyte count, temperature, serum inflammatory factors and soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE). RESULTS Individualized PEEP improved the PaO2/FiO2 before extubation (P = 0.034) and decreased driving pressure (P = 0.011). The PEEP valued in the P group was 14 [10-14] cmH2O. The lung compliance of the P group was significantly higher than that in the C group (P = 0.013). There was no significant difference in other measurements. CONCLUSIONS Individualized PEEP could improve PaO2/FiO2 in patients who underwent RALP and do not increase the dosage of intraoperative vasoactive drug and the release of inflammatory factors.

Abstract
Objective Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are an important quality indicator and are associated with significantly increased mortality in infants. The objective of this study was to identify risk factors for PPCs in neonates undergoing non-cardiothoracic surgery. Methods In this retrospective study, all neonates who underwent non-cardiothoracic surgery in a children's hospital from October 2020 to September 2022 were included for analysis. Demographic data and perioperative variables were obtained. The primary outcome was the occurrence of PPCs. Univariate analysis and multivariable logistic regression analysis were used to investigate the effect of patient-related factors on the occurrence of PPCs. Results Totally, 867 neonatal surgery patients met the inclusion criteria in this study, among which 35.3% (306/867) patients experienced pulmonary complications within 1 week postoperatively. The PPCs observed in this study were 51 exacerbations of pre-existing pneumonia, 198 new patchy shadows, 123 new pulmonary atelectasis, 10 new pneumothorax, and 6 new pleural effusion. Patients were divided into two groups: PPCs (n=306) and non-PPCs (n=561). The multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed five independent risk factors for PPCs: corrected gestational age (OR=0.938; 95% CI 0.890 to 0.988), preoperative pneumonia (OR=2.139; 95% CI 1.033 to 4.426), length of surgery (> 60 min) (OR=1.699; 95% CI 1.134 to 2.548), preoperative mechanical ventilation (OR=1.857; 95% CI 1.169 to 2.951), and intraoperative albumin infusion (OR=1.456; 95% CI 1.041 to 2.036) in neonates undergoing non-cardiothoracic surgery. Conclusion Identifying risk factors for neonatal PPCs will allow for the identification of patients who are at higher risk and intervention for any modifiable risk factors identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies suggest that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection increases the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) and mortality. Consequently, patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection undergoing emergency surgery are more vulnerable to PPCs, yet few studies have evaluated PPCs in these patients. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted between January 2022 and February 2023 on the medical records of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 who underwent emergency surgery. The study evaluated the incidence of PPCs and 30-day postoperative mortality in all enrolled patients. RESULTS A total of 41 patients were enrolled, among whom PPCs occurred in seven patients (17%). The incidence of PPCs was statistically significant in patients with underlying diabetes compared to those without (p = 0.01) and in patients with an American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class 3 or higher compared to those with less than 3 (p = 0.005) (ASA classification uses a grading system of I (one) through V (five)). The 30-day mortality rate was 4.9%. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates that the incidence of PPCs and 30-day mortality rates after emergency surgery in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 are higher compared to prepandemic baseline rates. Given the significant interest and concern worldwide regarding severe infectious respiratory diseases, such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), clinicians should focus on conducting research to identify ways to reduce the incidence of PPCs and mortality in patients with severe acute respiratory infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preventive management to reduce the risk of coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) spread led to delays in active rehabilitation, which may have negatively impacted the outcomes of patients with traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Therefore, the aim of this study was to clarify the influence of preventive management on the rate of perioperative complications after surgical treatment for SCI. METHODS This single-center retrospective study examined the cases of 175 patients who had SCI surgery between 2017 and 2021. We could not continue early rehabilitation interventions starting on April 30, 2020, because of our preventive management to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spread. Using a propensity score-matched model, we adjusted for age, sex, American Spinal Injury Association impairment scale score at admission, and risk factors for perioperative complications described in previous studies. Perioperative complication rates were compared between the COVID-19 pandemic and prepandemic groups. RESULTS Of the 175 patients, 48 (the pandemic group) received preventive management. The preliminary analysis revealed significant differences between the unmatched pandemic and prepandemic groups with respect to age (75.0 versus 71.2 years, respectively; p = 0.024) and intraoperative estimated blood loss (152 versus 227 mL; p = 0.013). The pandemic group showed significant delays in visiting the rehabilitation room compared with the prepandemic group (10 versus 4 days from hospital admission; p < 0.001). There were significant differences between the pandemic and prepandemic groups with respect to the rates of pneumonia (31% versus 16%; p = 0.022), cardiopulmonary dysfunction (38% versus 18%; p = 0.007), and delirium (33% versus 13%; p = 0.003). With a propensity score-matched analysis (C-statistic = 0.90), 30 patients in the pandemic group and 60 patients in the prepandemic group were automatically selected. There were significant differences between the matched pandemic and prepandemic groups with respect to the rates of cardiopulmonary dysfunction (47% versus 23%; p = 0.024) and deep venous thrombosis (60% versus 35%; p = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS Even with early surgical intervention, late mobilization and delays in active rehabilitation during the COVID-19 pandemic increased perioperative complications after SCI surgery.

Abstract
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are a major catastrophic consequence of upper abdominal surgery, resulting in morbidity and mortality. Therefore, the study aims to assess the effect of lung expansion modalities (LEMs) on older adults' pulmonary function and the incidence of pulmonary complications. The study randomly allocated 80 older adults (40 cases and 40 controls). Pulmonary function testing revealed a significant improvement in the study group's forced expiratory volume in one second, sixth second, and oxygen saturation on the fifth postoperative day (POD) compared to the first day [55.23%, 38.41%, and 2.87%; P0.001]. The reported PPCs incidence of the intervention group was less than the control group (15% and 30% on the third POD; 15% and 37.5% on the fifth POD). In conclusion, LEMs provide practical enhancement for the postoperative care of older adults by reducing PPCs by restoring measured pulmonary volumes.

Preoperative risk assessment and spirometry is a cost-effective strategy to reduce post-operative complications and mortality in Mexico. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0271953. [PMID: 35895736 PMCID: PMC9328537 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0271953] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2021] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim
Combining preoperative spirometry with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalunia (ARISCAT) risk scale can reduce post-operative complications and improve patient survival. This study aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of performing spirometry or not in conjunction with the ARISCAT scale, to reduce post-operative complications and improve survival among adult patients undergoing elective surgery in Mexico.
Methods
A cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) was performed to compare the specific cost and health outcomes associated with the combined use of the ARISCAT scale and preoperative spirometry (Group 1), and the use of the ARISCAT scale without preoperative spirometry (Group 2). The health outcomes evaluated were post-operative complications and survival. The perspective was from the health care provider (Hospital General de México) and direct medical costs were reported in 2019 US dollars. A decision tree with a time horizon of eight months was used for each health outcome and ARISCAT risk level.
Results
The combined use of the ARISCAT scale and spirometry is more cost-effective for reducing post-operative complications in the low and moderate-risk levels and is cost-saving in the high-risk level, than use of the ARISCAT scale without spirometry. To improve patient survival, ARISCAT and spirometry are also more cost-effective at the moderate risk level, and cost-saving for high-risk patients, than using the ARISCAT scale alone.
Conclusions
The use of preoperative spirometry among patients with a high ARISCAT risk level was cost-saving, reduced post-operative complications, and improved survival. Our findings indicate an urgent need to implement spirometry as part of preoperative care in Mexico, which is already the standard of care in other countries.

Abstract
The definition of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) is inconsistent in literature; however, PPCs include pulmonary abnormalities that adversely affect patient outcomes, such as respiratory failure, atelectasis, pneumonia, pleural effusion, and exacerbation of underlying lung conditions. Furthermore, although the incidence of PPCs varies according to its definition, surgery type, and patient population, they can lead to increased morbidity, mortality, duration of hospitalization, and medical costs; thus, efforts to identify and reduce the risk factors are important to improve patient outcomes. Among the risk factors for PPCs, residual neuromuscular block is a representative and preventable anesthesia-related risk factor that is affected by the choice of the reversal agent. However, it is not clear whether the chosen reversal agent, i.e., sugammadex, reduces PPCs better when compared to anticholinesterases. Additionally, the effects of the reversal agents on PPCs in high-risk patients, such as elderly patients, pediatric patients, those with end-stage renal disease, obesity, obstructive sleep apnea, or those undergoing specific surgeries, are diverse. To reduce the PPCs associated with the use of neuromuscular blocking agents, it is important to confirm complete reversal of the neuromuscular block under neuromuscular monitoring. Additionally, efforts to reduce the incidence of PPCs through interdisciplinary communication are required.

Shortness of Breath on Day 1 After Surgery Alerting the Presence of Early Respiratory Complications After Surgery in Lung Cancer Patients. Patient Prefer Adherence 2022; 16:709-722.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patient-reported outcome (PRO)-based symptom assessment with a threshold can facilitate the early alert of adverse events. The purpose of this study was to determine whether shortness of breath (SOB) on postoperative day 1 (POD1) can inform postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) for patients after lung cancer (LC) surgery. METHODS Data were extracted from a prospective cohort study of patients with LC surgery. Symptoms were assessed by the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory-lung cancer module (MDASI-LC) before and daily after surgery. Types and grades of complications during hospitalization were recorded. SOB and other symptoms were tested for a possible association with PPCs by logistic regression models. Optimal cutpoints of SOB were derived, using the presence of PPCs as an anchor. RESULTS Among 401 patients with complete POD1 MDASI-LC and records on postoperative complications, 46 (11.5%) patients reported Clavien-Dindo grade II-IV PPCs. Logistic regression revealed that higher SOB score on POD1 (odds ratio [OR]=1.13, 95% CI=1.01-1.27), male (OR=2.86, 95% CI=1.32-6.23), open surgery (OR=3.03, 95% CI=1.49-6.14), and lower forced expiratory volume in one second (OR=1.78, 95% CI=1.66-2.96) were significantly associated with PPCs. The optimal cutpoint was 6 (on a 0-10 scale) for SOB. Patients reporting SOB < 6 on POD1 had shorter postoperative length of stay than those reporting 6 or greater SOB (median, 6 vs 7, P =0.007). CONCLUSION SOB on POD1 can inform the onset of PPCs in patients after lung cancer surgery. PRO-based symptom assessment with a clinically meaningful threshold could alert clinicians for the early management of PPCs.

Abstract
Introduction: After abdominal surgery, the patients who are separated from mechanical ventilation and provided with oxygen therapy via a T-piece are at risk for respiratory complications. Therefore, they need additional respiratory support. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of manual hyperinflation (MHI) on pulmonary function after weaning. Methods: This randomized clinical trial included 40 patients who had undergone abdominal surgery and were receiving oxygen via a T-piece. Patients were selected from the intensive care units (ICU) of two hospitals in Mashhad, Iran. The subjects were randomly allocated to intervention (MHI) and control groups. Patients in the MHI group were provided with three 20-minute MHI rounds using the Mapleson C, while the control group received routine cares. Tidal volume (Vt), Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI), and the ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to fractional inspired oxygen (P/F ratio) were measured before the intervention, as well as 5 and 20 minutes after the intervention. Atelectasis prevalence was assessed before and 24 hours after the intervention. Data were analysed by SPSS software version 13. Results: At baseline, there were no significant differences between the groups regarding Vt, RSBI, P/F ratio, and atelectasis rate. No significant difference was also found between the groups regarding atelectasis rate 24 hours after the intervention. However, at both posttests, Vt, RSBI, and P/F ratio in the MHI group were significantly better than the control group. Conclusion: In patients with artificial airway and spontaneous breathing, MHI improves pulmonary function.

Abstract
Postoperative pulmonary complications and acute respiratory failure are among the leading causes of adverse postoperative outcomes. Noninvasive ventilation may safely and effectively prevent acute respiratory failure in high-risk patients after cardiothoracic surgery and after abdominal surgery. Moreover, noninvasive ventilation can be used to treat postoperative hypoxemia, particularly after abdominal surgery. Noninvasive ventilation also can be helpful to prevent or manage intraoperative acute respiratory failure during non-general anesthesia, primarily in patients with poor respiratory function. Finally, noninvasive ventilation is superior to standard preoxygenation in delaying desaturation during intubation in morbidly obese and in critically ill hypoxemic patients. The few available studies in children suggest that noninvasive ventilation could be safe and valuable in treating hypoxemic or hypercapnic acute respiratory failure after cardiac surgery; on the other hand, it could be dangerous after tracheoesophageal correction.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with indication for lung surgery besides the pulmonary pathology often suffer from independent comorbidities affecting several other organ systems. Preventing patients from harmful complications due to decompensation of underlying organ insufficiencies perioperatively is pivotal. This review draws attention to the peri- and postoperative responsibility of the anaesthetist and intensivist to prevent patients undergoing lung surgery deterioration. RECENT FINDINGS During the last decades we had to accept that 'traditional' intensive care medicine implying deep sedation, controlled ventilation, liberal fluid therapy, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy because of several side-effects resulted in prolongation of hospital length of stay and a decline in quality of life. Modern therapy therefore should focus on the convalescence of the patient and earliest possible reintegration in the 'life-before.' Avoidance of sedative and anticholinergic drugs, early extubation, prophylactic noninvasive ventilation and high-flow nasal oxygen therapy, early mobilization, well-adjusted fluid balance and reasonable use of antibiotics are the keystones of success. SUMMARY A perioperative interprofessional approach and a change in paradigms are the prerequisites to improve outcome and provide treatment for elder and comorbid patients with an indication for thoracic surgery.
