Abstract
Prediction and avoidance of intraoperative hypotension (IOH) can lead to less postoperative morbidity. Machine learning (ML) is increasingly being applied to predict IOH. We hypothesize that incorporating demographic and physiological features in an ML model will improve the performance of IOH prediction. In addition, we added a "dial" feature to alter prediction performance. An ML prediction model was built based on a multivariate random forest (RF) trained algorithm using 13 physiologic time series and patient demographic data (age, sex, and BMI) for adult patients undergoing hepatobiliary surgery. A novel implementation was developed with an adjustable, multi-model voting (MMV) approach to improve performance in the challenging context of a dynamic, sliding window for which the propensity of data is normal (negative for IOH). The study cohort included 85% of subjects exhibiting at least one IOH event. Males constituted 70% of the cohort, median age was 55.8 years, and median BMI was 27.7. The multivariate model yielded average AUC = 0.97 in the static context of a single prediction made up to 8 min before a possible IOH event, and it outperformed a univariate model based on MAP-only (average AUC = 0.83). The MMV model demonstrated AUC = 0.96, PPV = 0.89, and NPV = 0.98 within the challenging context of a dynamic sliding window across 40 min prior to a possible IOH event. We present a novel ML model to predict IOH with a distinctive "dial" on sensitivity and specificity to predict first IOH episode during liver resection surgeries.

BMC Geriatr 2024; 24:540. [PMID: 38907213 PMCID: PMC11193176 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-05130-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative myocardial injury/infarction (PMI) following noncardiac surgery is a frequent cardiac complication. This study aims to evaluate PMI risk and explore preoperative assessment tools of PMI in patients at increased cardiovascular (CV) risk who underwent noncardiac surgery under the surgical and medical co-management (SMC) model. METHODS A prospective cohort study that included consecutive patients at increased CV risk who underwent intermediate- or high-risk noncardiac surgery at the Second Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, between January 2017 and December 2022. All patients were treated with perioperative management by the SMC team. The SMC model was initiated when surgical intervention was indicated and throughout the entire perioperative period. The incidence, risk factors, and impact of PMI on 30-day mortality were analyzed. The ability of the Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI), frailty, and their combination to predict PMI was evaluated. RESULTS 613 eligible patients (mean [standard deviation, SD] age 73.3[10.9] years, 94.6% male) were recruited consecutively. Under SMC, PMI occurred in 24/613 patients (3.9%). Patients with PMI had a higher rate of 30-day mortality than patients without PMI (29.2% vs. 0.7%, p = 0.00). The FRAIL Scale for frailty was independently associated with an increased risk for PMI (odds ratio = 5.91; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.34-14.93; p = 0.00). The RCRI demonstrated adequate discriminatory capacity for predicting PMI (area under the curve [AUC], 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.88). Combining frailty with the RCRI further increased the accuracy of predicting PMI (AUC, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.81-0.93). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of PMI was relatively low in high CV risk patients undergoing intermediate- or high-risk noncardiac surgery under SMC. The RCRI adequately predicted PMI. Combining frailty with the RCRI further increased the accuracy of PMI predictions, achieving excellent discriminatory capacity. These findings may aid personalized evaluation and management of high-risk patients who undergo intermediate- or high-risk noncardiac surgery.

Abstract
The authors conducted a prospective observational study to investigate the prognostic value of high-sensitivity Troponin I (hs-TnI) in the short- and long-term periods after orthopedic surgery, including Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty (THA and TKA, respectively), in a tertiary orthopedic center in Brazil. Perioperative Myocardial Injury (PMI) was defined as an absolute increase in hs-TnI of ≥ 26 ng/L above preoperative values. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality assessed at 30 days and 18 months after surgery. The secondary endpoint consisted of a composite outcome: cardiovascular death, acute myocardial infarction, angina requiring revascularization, and/or stroke. The authors compared Relative Risks (RR) of all-cause mortality and composite outcomes in patients with or without PMI at 30 days and 18 months. A Cox proportional hazards model for long-term outcomes was calculated and adjusted for age > 70 years, gender, and Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) class ≥ 2. PMI occurred in 3.4 % of all surgeries. At 30-days, 6.6 % of patients with PMI had died versus none without PMI. At 18 months, 20.0 % of PMI versus 4.7 % without PMI had died (RR = 5.0; 95 % Confidence Interval [95 % CI 1.3-19.3]). Based on composite outcomes in short and long-term periods, the RRs were 16.2 (95 % CI 2.7-96.5) and 7.7 (95 % CI 2.2-26.6), respectively. PMI was associated with all-cause mortality after 18 months and increased risk for a composite outcome (Hazard Ratio [HR = 3.97], 95 % CI 1.13-13.89 and HR = 5.80, 95 % CI 1.93-17.45, respectively). Patients with PMI who underwent THA or TKA presented worse short- and long-term prognoses compared to those without PMI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) has been used widely, its impact on adverse events in elderly patients has not been fully examined. The present study aimed to investigate the relationships between subcomponents of CGA and adverse events (AEs) in elderly patients undergoing posterior lumbar fusion surgery. METHODS A total of 242 eligible elderly patients enrolled. Our CGA included activities of daily living, instrumental activities of daily living, nutritional status, cardiac function, pulmonary function, renal function, frailty, cognition, anxiety, depression, delirium, chronic pain score, comorbidity and polypharmacy. Comprehensive complication index was used to summarize postoperative complications and its severity. Logistic regression was performed to determine the relationships between subcomponents of a CGA and postoperative AEs. RESULTS Present study found that female were more vulnerable to have AEs. Postoperative major AEs were associated with delirium (odds ratio (OR): 4.302, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.720-10.761, p = 0.002), nutritional status (OR: 3.030, 95%CI 1.218-7.541, p = 0.017), cognitive impairment (OR: 4.122, 95%CI 1.179-14.407, p = 0.027), Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) (OR: 4.800, 95%CI 1.852-12.440, p = 0.001) and severe dependent (OR: 3.772, 95%CI 1.116-9.841, p = 0.007). Further analysis showed that delirium (OR: 2.824, 95%CI 1.068-7.467, p = 0.036) and CCI (OR: 3.221, 95%CI 1.184-8.766, p = 0.022) were independently related to major AEs. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that preoperative screening preoperative delirium, cognitive, nutrition and CCI are essential to prevent postoperative major AEs of the surgical elderly.

Enhancing predictive accuracy of the cardiac risk score in open abdominal aortic surgery: the role of left ventricular wall motion abnormalities. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1239153. [PMID: 38107265 PMCID: PMC10722257 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1239153] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Open abdominal aortic surgery carries many potential complications, with cardiac adverse events being the most significant concern. The Vascular Study Group Cardiac Risk Index (VSG-CRI) is a commonly used tool for predicting severe cardiac complications and guiding clinical decision-making. However, despite the potential prognostic significance of left ventricular wall motion abnormalities (LVWMAs) and reduced LV ejection fraction (LVEF) for adverse outcomes, the VSG-CRI model has not accounted for them. Hence, the main objective of this study was to analyze the added value of LV wall motion on the discriminatory power of the modified VSG-CRI in predicting major postoperative cardiac complications. Methods A prospective study was conducted involving 271 patients who underwent elective abdominal aortic surgery between 2019 and 2021. VSG-CRI scores were calculated, and preoperative transthoracic echocardiography was conducted for all patients. Subsequently, a modified version of the VSG-CRI, accounting for reduced LVEF and LVWMAs, was developed and incorporated into the dataset. The postoperative incidence of the composite endpoint of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), including myocardial infarction, clinically relevant arrhythmias treated with medicaments or by cardioversion, or congestive heart failure, was assessed at discharge from the index hospitalization, with adjudicators blinded to events. The predictive accuracy of both the original and modified VSG-CRI was assessed using C-Statistics. Results In total, 61 patients (22.5%) experienced MACEs. Among these patients, a significantly higher proportion had preoperative LVWMAs compared to those without (62.3% vs. 32.9%, p < 0.001). Multivariable regression analysis revealed the VSG-CRI [odds ratio (OR) 1.46, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.21-1.77; p < 0.001] and LVWMA (OR 2.76; 95% CI 1.46-5.23; p = 0.002) as independent predictors of MACEs. Additionally, the modified VSG-CRI model demonstrated superior predictability compared to the baseline VSG-CRI model, suggesting an improved predictive performance for anticipating MACEs following abdominal aortic surgery [area under the curve (AUC) 0.74; 95% CI 0.68-0.81 vs. AUC 0.70; 95% CI 0.63-0.77; respectively]. Conclusion The findings of this study suggest that incorporating preoperative echocardiography can enhance the predictive accuracy of the VSG-CRI for predicting MACEs after open abdominal aortic surgery. Before its implementation in clinical settings, external validation is necessary to confirm the generalizability of this newly developed predictive model across different populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether the Surgical Apgar Score (SAS) improves re-estimation of perioperative cardiac risk. BACKGROUND The SAS is a novel risk index that integrates three relevant and easily measurable intraoperative parameters (blood loss, heart rate, mean arterial pressure) to predict outcomes. The incremental prognostic value of the SAS when used in combination with standard preoperative risk indices is unclear. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adults (18 years and older) who underwent elective noncardiac surgery at a quaternary care hospital in Canada (2009-2014). The primary outcome was postoperative acute myocardial injury. The SAS (range 0-10) was calculated based on intraoperative estimated blood loss, lowest mean arterial pressure, and lowest heart rate documented in electronic medical records. Incremental prognostic value of the SAS when combined with the Revised Cardiac Risk Index was assessed based on discrimination (c-statistic), reclassification (integrated discrimination improvement, net reclassification index), and clinical utility (decision curve analysis). RESULTS The cohort included 16,835 patients, of whom 607 (3.6%) patients had acute postoperative myocardial injury. Addition of the SAS to the Revised Cardiac Risk Index improved risk estimation based on the integrated discrimination improvement [2.0%; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.5%-2.4%], continuous net reclassification index (54%; 95% CI: 46%-62%), and c-index, which increased from 0.68 (95% CI: 0.65-0.70) to 0.75 (95% CI: 0.73-0.77). On decision curve analysis, addition of the SAS to the Revised Cardiac Risk Index resulted in a higher net benefit at all decision thresholds. CONCLUSIONS When combined with a validated preoperative risk index, the SAS improved the accuracy of cardiac risk assessment for noncardiac surgery. Further research is needed to delineate how intraoperative data can better guide postoperative decision-making.

Abstract
Purpose Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery is closely related to major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event and is difficult to identify. This study aims to investigate how to predict the myocardial injury of thoracic surgery and whether intraoperative variables contribute to the prediction of myocardial injury. Methods The prospective study included adult patients with high cardiovascular risk who underwent elective thoracic surgery from May 2022 to October 2022. Multivariate logistic regression was used to establish a model with baseline variables and a model with baseline and intraoperative variables. We compare the predictive performance of two models for postoperative myocardial injury. Results In general, 31.5% (94 of 298) occurred myocardial injury. Age ≥65 years old, obesity, smoking, preoperative hsTnT, and one-lung ventilation time were independent predictors of myocardial injury. Compared with baseline model, the intraoperative variables improved model fit, modestly improved the reclassification (continuous net reclassification improvement 0.409, 95% CI, 0.169 to 0.648, P<0.001, improved integrated discrimination 0.036, 95% CI, 0.011 to 0.062, P<0.01) of myocardial injury cases, and achieved higher net benefit in decision curve analysis. Conclusion The risk stratification and anesthesia management of high-risk patients are essential. The addition of intraoperative variables to the baseline predictive model improved the performance of the overall model of myocardial injury and helped anesthesiologists screen out the patients at the greatest risk for myocardial injury and adjust anesthesia strategies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Both B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-BNP (NT-pro-BNP) are used to identify patients at risk of perioperative vascular events, but prognostic thresholds have been established in a large prospective cohort for NT-pro-BNP only. We designed this study to inform perioperative risk interpretation of BNP values. Our primary objective is to validate a formula to convert BNP to NT-pro-BNP concentrations before non-cardiac surgery. The secondary objective is to determine the association between BNP categories (established based on conversion from NT-pro-BNP categories) and a composite outcome of myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) and vascular death. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a single-centre, prospective cohort study in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery who are >65 years old, Revised Cardiac Risk Index ≥1 or >45 years old with significant cardiovascular disease. BNP and NT-pro-BNP will be measured preoperatively, and troponin measurements will be analysed on postoperative days 1, 2 and 3. MINS and vascular death will be ascertained up to 30 days after surgery. The primary analyses will compare measured NT-pro-BNP values to those predicted by an existing formula (from a non-surgical population) based on BNP concentrations and patient characteristics, and recalibrate and update the formula with additional variables. Secondary analyses will estimate the relationship between categories of measured BNP (corresponding to established NT-pro-BNP thresholds) and the composite of MINS and vascular death. The target sample size of 431 patients is based on our primary analysis (assessing the conversion formula). ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethics approval has been obtained by the Queen's University Health Sciences Research Ethics Board, and all participants will provide informed consent for participation in the study. The results will be submitted for publication in conferences and in a peer-reviewed journal, and will inform perioperative vascular risk interpretation of preoperative BNP.

Prognostic value of preoperative left ventricular global longitudinal strain for predicting postoperative myocardial injury and mortality in patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery (SOLOMON study). Int J Cardiol 2023; 378:151-158. [PMID: 36863423 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2023.02.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The usefulness of preoperative measurement of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) for predicting prognosis in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery has not been evaluated. We analyzed the prognostic value of LVGLS in predicting postoperative 30-day cardiovascular events and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS). METHODS This prospective cohort study was conducted in two referral hospitals and included 871 patients who underwent non-cardiac surgery <1 month after preoperative echocardiography. Those with ejection fraction <40%, valvular heart disease, and regional wall motion abnormality were excluded. The co-primary endpoints were the (1) composite incidence of all-cause death, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and MINS and (2) composite incidence of all-cause death and ACS. RESULTS Among the 871 participants enrolled (mean age: 72.9 years; female: 60.8%), there were 43 cases of the primary endpoint (4.9%): 10 deaths, 3 ACS, and 37 MINS. Participants with impaired LVGLS (≤16.6%) had a higher incidence of the co-primary endpoints (log-rank P < 0.001 and 0.015) than those without. The result was similar after adjustment with clinical variables and preoperative troponin T levels (hazard ratio = 1.30, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.03-1.65; P = 0.027). In sequential Cox analysis and net reclassification index, LVGLS had an incremental value for predicting the co-primary endpoints after non-cardiac surgery. Among the 538 (61.8%) participants who underwent serial troponin assay, LVGLS predicted MINS independently from the traditional risk factors (odds ratio = 3.54, 95% CI = 1.70-7.36; P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative LVGLS has an independent and incremental prognostic value in predicting early postoperative cardiovascular events and MINS.

Abstract
Purpose This study aims to investigate whether the administration of salbutamol/budesonide reduced the incidence of myocardial injury in thoracic surgery. Methods The randomized controlled trial included 298 patients over 45 and at high-risk for cardiovascular complications after lobectomy. Patients in the experimental group were treated with salbutamol/budesonide after anesthesia induction with fiberoptic bronchoscope. The primary outcome was the incidence rates of myocardial injury, assessed before and three days after the operation. The secondary outcome was respiratory function at each time point during the operation, including lung compliance and arterial partial pressure of oxygen, postoperative pulmonary and cardiovascular complications, hospital stay, pain score, and analgesic dosage. Results In the control group, the incidence of myocardial injury was 57/150 (38%), while that in the experimental group was 33/148 (22%); compared between the two groups, the difference in the incidence of myocardial injury was statistically significant. The dynamic compliance and static compliance at half an hour after the start of surgery in the experimental group were significantly improved. Before leaving the operating room, the difference in arterial oxygen partial pressure between the two groups was statistically significant. Conclusion Intraoperative administration of salbutamol/budesonide reduced the incidence of myocardial injury after thoracic surgery, improved lung function, and reduced the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications.

J Clin Anesth 2023; 87:111106. [PMID: 36931053 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinane.2023.111106] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/17/2023]
Abstract
Myocardial injury is a frequent complication of surgical patients after having non-cardiac surgery that is strongly associated with perioperative mortality. While intraoperative anesthesia-related deaths are exceedingly rare, about 1% of patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery die within the first 30 postoperative days. Given the number of surgeries performed annually, death following surgery is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) is defined as an elevation in troponin concentrations within 30 days postoperatively. Although typically asymptomatic, patients with MINS suffer myocardial damage and have a 10% risk of death within 30 days after surgery and excess risks of mortality that persist during the first postoperative year. Many factors for the development of MINS are non-modifiable, such as preexistent coronary artery disease. Preventive measures, systematic approaches to surveillance and treatment standards are still lacking, however many factors are modifiable and should be considered in clinical practice: the importance of hemodynamic control, adequate oxygen supply, metabolic homeostasis, the use of perioperative medications such as statins, anti-thrombotic agents, beta-blockers, or anti-inflammatory agents, as well as some evidence regarding the choice of sedative and analgesic for anesthesia are discussed. Also, as age and complexity in comorbidities of the surgical patient population increase, there is an urgent need to identify patients at risk for MINS and develop prevention and treatment strategies. In this review, we provide an overview of current screening standards and promising preventive options in the perioperative setting and address knowledge gaps requiring further investigation.

Abstract
AIMS Primary acute heart failure (AHF) is a common cause of hospitalization. AHF may also develop postoperatively (pAHF). The aim of this study was to assess the incidence, phenotypes, determinants and outcomes of pAHF following non-cardiac surgery. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 9164 consecutive high-risk patients undergoing 11 262 non-cardiac inpatient surgeries were prospectively included. The incidence, phenotypes, determinants and outcome of pAHF, centrally adjudicated by independent cardiologists, were determined. The incidence of pAHF was 2.5% (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.2-2.8%); 51% of pAHF occurred in patients without known heart failure (de novo pAHF), and 49% in patients with chronic heart failure. Among patients with chronic heart failure, 10% developed pAHF, and among patients without a history of heart failure, 1.5% developed pAHF. Chronic heart failure, diabetes, urgent/emergent surgery, atrial fibrillation, cardiac troponin elevations above the 99th percentile, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, anaemia, peripheral artery disease, coronary artery disease, and age, were independent predictors of pAHF in the logistic regression model. Patients with pAHF had significantly higher all-cause mortality (44% vs. 11%, p < 0.001) and AHF readmission (15% vs. 2%, p < 0.001) within 1 year than patients without pAHF. After Cox regression analysis, pAHF was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.7 [95% CI 1.3-2.2]; p < 0.001) and AHF readmission (aHR 2.3 [95% CI 1.5-3.7]; p < 0.001). Findings were confirmed in an external validation cohort using a prospective multicentre cohort of 1250 patients (incidence of pAHF 2.4% [95% CI 1.6-3.3%]). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative AHF frequently developed following non-cardiac surgery, being de novo in half of cases, and associated with a very high mortality.

High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin I Thresholds to Identify Myocardial Injury After Noncardiac Surgery: A Cohort Study. Can J Cardiol 2023; 39:311-318.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) is common and associated with short- and long-term major cardiovascular events. Diagnostic criteria for MINS using Abbott high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) are unknown. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study of adults who had in-patient noncardiac surgery and measured hs-cTnI (Abbott Laboratories) on postoperative serum samples collected up to postoperative day 3. The objective was to determine prognostically important hs-cTnI thresholds associated with major cardiac events and death at 30 days after noncardiac surgery. Using Cox proportional iterative analyses, we determined peak postoperative hs-cTnI thresholds associated with the occurrence of the 30-day composite of major cardiac events (ie, nonfatal myocardial infarction after 3 postoperative days, cardiac arrest, and congestive heart failure) and death. RESULTS Of 3953 included patients, 66 (1.7%) experienced the primary outcome at 30 days. Peak hs-cTnI values and associated incidence of major cardiac events and death were as follows: < 60 ng/L: 1.0% (95% CI 0.7-1.3); 60 to < 700 ng/L: 8.6% (5.6-13.0); and ≥ 700 ng/L: 27.3% (16.4-41.9). Compared with peak hs-cTnI < 60 ng/L, adjusted hazard ratios were 7.54 (95% CI% 4.27-13.32) for hs-cTnI values of 60 to < 700 ng/L and 26.87 (13.27-54.41) for values ≥ 700 ng/L. CONCLUSIONS Hs-cTnI elevation within the first 3 days after noncardiac surgery independently predicts major cardiac events and death at 30 days. A postoperative hs-cTnI ≥ 60 ng/L was associated with a > 7-fold increase in the risk of subsequent major cardiac events and mortality at 30 days.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:109. [PMID: 36841792 PMCID: PMC9960661 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03086-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies indicated that the prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal tumors is frequently influenced by its complications, notably myocardial injury. The main object is to investigate the occurrence and risk factors of myocardial injury in patients with gastrointestinal tumor. METHODS 1126 patients who received gastrointestinal tumor related surgery from May 2018 to June 2020 in the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively collected and divided into the non-myocardial injury group and the myocardial injury group (high-sensitive cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) ≥ 0.028 ng/ml). The occurrence and risk factors of myocardial injury in patients with gastrointestinal tumor are analyzed. The influence of myocardial injury on the ICU detention time in gastrointestinal tumor patients is also studied. RESULTS In total, 78 (6.93%) patients developed myocardial injuries. Compared with patients in the non-myocardial injury group, patients in the myocardial injury group have a higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (including advanced age and higher smoking ratio), a higher prevalence of comorbidities (such as previous coronary artery disease, hypertension, atrium fibrillation and diabetes), and a higher rate of premedication (such as anticoagulation, β-blocker, Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/Angiotensin II receptor blocker, and diuretic) (all with P-value < 0.05). In addition, patients in the myocardial injury group also presented with a higher revised cardiac risk index (Lee index), higher neutrophil granulocyte ratio, lower hemoglobin, and higher likelihood of impaired cardiac structure and function (all with P-value < 0.05). There was a trend of statistical significance in the ICU detention time between the myocardial injury group and the non-myocardial injury group (1[1,3] vs. 2[1,10], P = 0.064). In this study, there were 7 patients presented with clinical symptoms in the myocardial injury group (chest discomfort in 4 cases, non-compressive precordial chest pain in 1 case, dyspnea in 2 cases). In the multivariate analysis, advanced age, increased Lee index score, increased neutrophil granulocyte ratio, decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), increased interventricular septum were independent risk factors for myocardial injury. CONCLUSION In conclusion, advanced age, increased Lee index, increased neutrophil granulocyte ratio, decreased left ventricular ejection fraction, and increased ventricular septum were independent risk factors for preoperative myocardial injury in patients with gastrointestinal tumors. The proportion of clinical symptoms in gastrointestinal tumor patients with myocardial injury was low, indicating the necessity to closely monitor the cardiac status of individuals with gastrointestinal tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) carries a high postoperative mortality. In this preplanned, subgroup analysis of the randomized DEX-2-TKA Trial, we investigated the effect of dexamethasone versus placebo on the concentration of cardiac troponin I and T (TnI and TnT) on the first postoperative morning after total knee arthroplasty. In addition, frequency of MINS, myocardial infarction, and major adverse cardiovascular events where evaluated. METHODS We included 290 patients who received either 24 mg of dexamethasone intravenously (given perioperatively) or placebo. Blood samples were analyzed as either TnI or T depending on trial site. RESULTS A total of 236 samples were eligible for analysis of TnI and 38 samples for TnT on the first postoperative morning. The median (IQR) TnI concentration was 4.6 ng/L (0-7.2 ng/L) in the dexamethasone group and 4.5ng/l (0-7.0 ng/L) in the placebo group (P = .96) on the first postoperative morning. The median TnT was 9 ng/L (6-11 ng/L) in the dexamethasone group and 8 ng/L (5-10 ng/L) in the placebo group (P = .68). The frequencies of MINS, myocardial infarction, and major adverse cardiovascular events were similar in the compared groups, but these analyses were underpowered. CONCLUSION We found no effect of dexamethasone on postoperative concentration of troponin I or T on the first postoperative morning after total knee arthroplasty.

Perioperative troponin surveillance in major noncardiac surgery: a narrative review. Br J Anaesth 2023; 130:21-28.

Abstract
Myocardial injury is now an acknowledged complication in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Heterogeneity in the definitions of myocardial injury contributes to difficulty in evaluating the value of cardiac troponins (cTns) measurement in perioperative care. Pre-, post-, and peri-operatively increased cTns are encompassed by the umbrella term 'myocardial injury' and are likely to reflect different pathophysiological mechanisms. Increased cTns are independently associated with cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular complications, poor short-term and long-term cardiovascular outcomes, and increased mortality. Preoperative measurement of cTns aids preoperative risk stratification beyond the Revised Cardiac Risk Index. Systematic measurement detects acute perioperative increases and allows early identification of acute myocardial injury. Common definitions and standards for reporting are a prerequisite for designing impactful future trials and perioperative management strategies.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications after non-cardiac surgery are the leading cause of 30-day mortality. The need for surgical interventions is approximately 5,000 procedures per 100,000 population, according to experts, the risks of non-cardiac surgical interventions are markedly higher in the elderly. It should be borne in mind that the aging of the population and the increased possibilities of medicine inevitably lead to an increase in surgical interventions in older people. Recent years have been characterized by the appearance of national and international guidelines with various algorithms for assessing and correcting cardiac risk, as well as publications on the validation of these algorithms. The purpose of this review was to provide new information about the assessment and correction of the risk of cardiac complications in non-cardiac operations. Despite the proposed new risk assessment scales, the RCRI scale remains the most commonly used, although for certain categories of patients (with oncopathology, in older age groups) the possibility of using specific questionnaires has been shown. In assessing the functional state, it is proposed to use not only a subjective assessment, but also the DASI questionnaire, 6-minute walking test and cardiopulmonary exercise test). At the next stage, it is proposed to evaluate biomarkers, primarily BNP or NT-proBNP, with a normal level – surgery, with an increased level – either an additional examination by a cardiologist or perioperative troponin screening. Currently, the prevailing opinion is that there is no need to examine patients to detect hidden lesions of the coronary arteries (non-invasive tests, coronary angiography), since this leads to excessive examination of patients, delaying the implementation of non-cardiac surgery. The extent to which this approach has an advantage over the previously used one remains to be studied.

Abstract
Recent literature published in a variety of multidisciplinary journals has significantly influenced perioperative patient care. Distilling and synthesizing the clinically important literature can be challenging. This review summarizes practice-changing articles in perioperative medicine from the years 2020 and 2021. Embase, Ovid, and EBM reviews databases were queried from January 2020 to December 2021. Inclusion criteria were original research, systematic review, meta-analysis, and important guidelines. Exclusion criteria were conference abstracts, case reports, letters, protocols, pediatric and obstetric articles, and cardiac surgery literature. Two authors reviewed each reference using the Distiller SR systematic review software (Evidence Partners Inc., Ottawa, Ont., Canada). A modified Delphi technique was used to identify 9 practice-changing articles. We identified another 13 articles for tabular summaries, as they were relevant to an internist's perioperative evaluation of a patient. Articles were selected to highlight the clinical implications of new evidence in each field. We have also pointed out limitations of each study and clinical populations where they are not applicable.

Using the Revised Cardiac Risk Index to Predict Major Postoperative Events for People With Kidney Failure: An External Validation and Update. CJC Open 2022; 4:905-912. [PMID: 36254324 PMCID: PMC9568714 DOI: 10.1016/j.cjco.2022.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background People with kidney failure have high risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. Although the revised cardiac risk index (RCRI) is used to estimate the risk of major postoperative events, it has not been validated in this population. We aimed to externally validate the RCRI and determine whether updating the model improved predictions for people with kidney failure. Methods We derived a retrospective, population-based cohort of adults with kidney failure (maintenance dialysis or sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate < 15 mL/min per 1.73 m2) who had surgery in Alberta, Canada between 2005 and 2019. We categorized participants based on RCRI variables and assigned risk estimates of death or major cardiac events, and then estimated predictive performance. We re-estimated the coefficients for each RCRI variable and internally validated the updated model. Net benefit was estimated with decision curve analysis. Results After 38,541 surgeries, 1204 events (3.1%) occurred. The estimated C-statistic for the original RCRI was 0.64 (95% confidence interval: 0.62, 0.65). Examination of calibration revealed significant risk overestimation. In the re-estimated RCRI model, discrimination was marginally different (C-statistic 0.67 [95% confidence interval: 0.66, 0.69]), though calibration was improved. No net benefit was observed when the data were examined with decision curve analysis, whereas the original RCRI was associated with harm. Conclusions The RCRI performed poorly in a Canadian kidney failure cohort and significantly overestimated risk, suggesting that RCRI use in similar kidney failure populations should be limited. A re-estimated kidney failure-specific RCRI may be promising but needs external validation. Novel perioperative models for this population are urgently needed.

Abstract
Background Arterial hypotension is common in patients during surgery and those admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) postoperatively. Perioperative arterial hypotension reportedly significantly affects surgical patients’ outcomes. Blood pressure level is the most crucial factor that influences organ perfusion. Hypoperfusion and organ dysfunction are correlated based on their severity associated with hypotension. As several factors can cause intraoperative hypotension, anesthetists must promptly identify the etiology for appropriate treatment and revert the patient’s hemodynamic profile. Objectives This review discusses the concept of perioperative hypotension, identifies its effects in clinical situations, and provides remedies and techniques to predict and avoid its significant consequences. Conclusions The primary determinant of organ perfusion is blood pressure. On the other hand, profound hypotension is common in surgical patients and is connected to hypoperfusion and organ failure. Currently, hypotension is addressed once low blood pressure levels are recorded. Early detection of oncoming hypotension or its clinical prediction is of paramount importance in allowing the clinician to treat hypotension and reduce the incidence and length of hypotensive episodes promptly and aggressively.

Neurosurg Rev 2022; 45:2151-2159.

Abstract
Perioperative myocardial injury is an important reason of mortality and morbidity after neurosurgery. It usually is missed due to its asymptomatic character. In the present study, we investigated myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) incidence, the risk factor for MINS, and association of MINS with 30-day mortality in neurosurgery patients. Patients with cardiac risk who underwent elective neurosurgery were enrolled to present prospective cohort study. The patients' demographics, comorbidities, medications used, medical history, and type of operation were recorded. The high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) levels of the patients were measured 12, 24, and 48 h after surgery. The patients were considered MINS-positive if at least one of their postoperative hs-cTn measurement values was ≥ 14 ng/l. All the patients were followed up for 30 days after surgery for evaluation of their outcomes, including total mortality, mortality due to cardiovascular cause, and major cardiac events. A total of 312 patients completed the study and 64 (20.5%) of them was MINS-positive. Long antiplatelet or anticoagulant drug cessation time (OR: 4.9, 95% CI: 2.1-9.4) was found the most prominent risk factor for MINS occurrence. The total mortality rate was 2.4% and 6.2% in patients MINS-negative and MINS-positive, respectively (p = 0.112). The mortality rate due to cardiovascular reasons (0.8% for without MINS, 4.7 for with MINS, and p = 0.026) and incidence of the major cardiac events (4% for without MINS, 10.9 for with MINS, and p = 0.026) were significantly higher in patients with MINS. MINS is a common problem after neurosurgery, and high postoperative hs-cTn level is associated with mortality and morbidity.

Abstract
In patients with significant valvular heart disease (VHD) undergoing non-cardiac surgery (NCS), perioperative adverse cardiac events are a relevant issue. Although postoperative outcomes can be adversely affected by valve-related haemodynamic instability, recommended perioperative risk scores prioritise the risk of the surgical procedure and the presence of cardiovascular risk factors, neglecting the presence or extent of VHD. Perioperative management and anaesthetic approach should focus on the underlying type and severity of VHD, the compensatory mechanisms deployed by left ventricle and right ventricle and the type and risk of NCS. Due to the lack of randomised trials investigating different therapeutic approaches of valvular intervention prior to NCS, recommendations mainly rely on consensus opinion and inference based on large observational registries. As a general rule, valvular intervention is recommended prior to NCS in symptomatic patients or in those who meet standard criteria for cardiac intervention. In the absence of such conditions, it is reasonable to perform NCS with tailored anaesthetic management and close invasive perioperative haemodynamic monitoring. However, patient-specific management strategies should be discussed with the heart team preoperatively. Symptomatic patients with severe VHD or those undergoing high-risk NCS should ideally be treated at a high-volume medical centre that is equipped to manage haemodynamically complex patients during the perioperative period.
