BMC Anesthesiol 2024; 24:272. [PMID: 39103817 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-024-02652-0] [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: 01/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication of anorectal surgery. This study was to determine the incidence of POUR in anorectal surgery for benign anorectal diseases, identify its risk factors, and establish a nomogram for prediction of POUR. METHODS A nested case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of patients were collected, and the incidence of POUR was analyzed. Univariate analysis was used to identify the risk factors associated with POUR, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine independent risk factors for POUR. A nomogram for the preoperative prediction of POUR using a logistic regression model was developed (n = 609). RESULTS The incidence of POUR after anorectal surgery for benign anorectal diseases was 19.05%. The independent risk factors for POUR were: female (P = 0.007); male with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (P = 0.001); postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score > 6 (P = 0.002); patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) (P = 0.016); and a surgery time > 30 min (P = 0.039). In the nomogram, BPH is the most important factor affecting the occurrence of POUR, followed by a postoperative VAS score > 6, PCEA, surgery time > 30 min, and sex has the least influence. CONCLUSION For patients undergoing anorectal surgery for benign anorectal diseases, preventive measures can be taken to reduce the risk of POUR, taking into account the following risk factors: female or male with BPH, severe postoperative pain, PCEA, and surgery time > 30 min. Furthermore, we developed and validated an easy-to-use nomogram for preoperative prediction of POUR in anorectal surgery for benign anorectal diseases.

Abstract
Background and Objective Optimal pain management for esophagectomy facilitates prevention of postoperative complications such as pneumonia, but also chronic pain. Historically, multimodal intravenous analgesia was employed. In the last decades, regional anesthesia including epidural and paravertebral analgesia is frequently used. In this narrative review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the available evidence for the different analgesia regimens for esophagectomy. Methods A search was conducted in the PubMed/MEDLINE database in November 2022. Only reports in English or Dutch were included. Editorials or articles lacking full text were excluded. A review of different analgesia regimens after esophagectomy is provided. Key Content and Findings Epidural analgesia (EA) was suggested to reduce postoperative pneumonia and prevent chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) as compared to opioid-based systemic analgesia and was considered the gold standard of pain management for esophagectomy. In the last decades, the side-effects of EA became more evident. Next to mild or moderate side-effects such as hypotension and urinary retention, several reports emphasized the incidence of serious neurologic complications to be much higher than estimated before. In addition, minimally invasive surgery fostered that other regional analgesia (RA) techniques are potential alternatives for EA. Paravertebral catheter placement can be performed under videoscope view during the thoracic phase of esophagectomy, making it a safe and easily placed block. Evidence on the effectiveness of erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is limited in this context. Conclusions Several analgesia regimens after esophagectomy are described. EA is most common, however paravertebral analgesia is a good alternative. Other techniques are also gaining ground but randomized clinical trials are lacking. Future studies should focus on the efficacy of paravertebral and erector spinae blocks for postoperative pain management for esophagectomy.

J Arthroplasty 2023; 38:S52-S59. [PMID: 36822446 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.02.040] [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: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 02/13/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urinary retention is a common concern after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) and can cause discomfort, incontinence and, if left untreated, myogenic changes to the bladder. However, overdiagnosis of postoperative urinary retention by bladder scans may lead to unnecessary interventions and delayed discharges. The purpose of this study was to compare the safety of two bladder management protocols following TJA. METHODS From January 3, 2022 to April 29, 2022, 519 consecutive patients operated on by thirteen surgeons underwent routine postoperative bladder scanning (standard protocol). From February 28, 2022 to April 29, 2022, a new protocol was introduced by three surgeons in 209 consecutive patients using a specific algorithm (selective protocol) so that only symptomatic patients had bladder scans. The primary outcome of interest was catheterization rate. Chi-square and Students t-tests were used for analyses. There were 37.7% of patients in the selective group who received scans. RESULTS Times to catheterization, readmissions, emergency department visits, and straight catheterization rates (15.0 versus 14.8% P = .999) were similar. More scans in the selective group resulted in intervention (39.2 versus 15.0%, P < .001). Prevoid volumes were higher in the selective protocol (608 versus 448 mL, P < .001). Postvoid volumes were similar (233 versus 223 mL, P = .497). There was one readmission for a urinary tract infection in the standard group and no urinary-related readmissions in the selective group. CONCLUSION The selective protocol had a higher rate of same day discharge, fewer bladder scans, and did not lead to increased rates of urinary-related complications. These findings suggest that selective bladder scanning for symptomatic patients can be safely instituted for TJA patients.

NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 396:441-451. [PMID: 36445384 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-022-02343-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Tamsulosin is a therapeutic drug of alpha-adrenergic antagonists. Previous randomized controlled trials and retrospective analyses have proved the efficacy of tamsulosin on many urinary system diseases. However, there is still a conflict about whether tamsulosin could prevent postoperative urinary retention (POUR). This meta-analysis aims to probe into the efficacy of tamsulosin for preventing POUR versus placebo. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library from December 31, 1999 to April 30, 2022, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Studies that were not RCTs or without negative controls were excluded. Cochrane Collaboration harmonized criteria were used to assess the risk of bias in included studies. Revman (version 5.3) software was invited to synthesize the results. We performed subgroup analyses to explore the factors that could influence tamsulosin's efficacy in POUR prevention. Our meta-analysis pooled 13 RCTs with 2163 patients. We concluded that tamsulosin brought about a significant reduction in the risk of POUR versus placebo (13.54% vs 20.88% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.84, P = 0.002). Tamsulosin could significantly reduce the risk of POUR in abdominal (11.52% vs 20.25% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.88, P = 0.02) and female pelvic surgery (15.57% vs 31.50% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.82, P = 0.006) but not in spinal surgery (13.45% vs 12.75% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 1.07, 95% CI 0.72 to 1.60, P = 0.73) and lower limb surgery (21.43% vs 33.33% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.35 to 1.14, P = 0.13). The preventive effect of postoperative (17.70% vs 33.93% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.33 to 0.85, P = 0.008) and postoperative with preoperative tamsulosin (13.96% vs 23.44% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.93, P = 0.02) on POUR were significantly better than preoperative management (11.95% vs 14.63% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.62, 95% CI 0.23 to 1.65, P = 0.34). Postoperative catheter placement appears to have a negative impact on the POUR-preventive effect of tamsulosin. (9.37% vs 16.46% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.83, P = 0.007) Tamsulosin showed significantly effect on POUR prevention in patients during spinal (15.07% vs 26.51% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.90, P = 0.02) and epidural anesthesia (12.50% vs 29.79% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.42, 95% CI 0.18 to 1.00, P = 0.05) but not in general anesthesia (12.40% vs 18.52% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.45 to 1.03, P = 0.07). Tamsulosin shows better outcomes for preventing POUR than placebo. Besides, tamsulosin showed a different effect on POUR prevention in the various surgical sites, anesthesia, medication management, and catheter use. However, our conclusions still have some limitations due to the lack of evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We conducted this study to assess the value of clinically relevant data for predicting the failure of removing urinary catheters among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage postoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all patients with intracerebral hemorrhage who underwent surgery for removal of intracerebral hematoma between January 2014 and December 2019, all of whom retained their urinary catheter. The patients were classified into 2 groups. Group A included patients who underwent successful removal of the catheter while group B included patients who underwent a failed removal. Univariate analysis was performed to determine the relationship between the failure of catheter removal and the patients' preoperative clinical characteristics. Independent prognostic predictors were identified using multivariate analyses. RESULTS The site of intracerebral hematoma ( P =0.004), volume of hematoma ( P <0.001), intraventricular hemorrhage ( P <0.001), admitted Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) ( P <0.001), GCS before urinary catheter removal ( P <0.001), smoking ( P =0.011), herniation ( P <0.001), urine protein ( P =0.013), creatinine ( P =0.037), and timing of urinary catheter removal ( P <0.001) were significantly different among the 2 groups. Multiple logistical regression analysis indicated that GCS before urinary catheter removal (odds ratio=1.171; 95% confidence interval=1.050-1.306; P =0.005) and timing for urinary catheter removal (odds ratio=0.962; 95% confidence interval=0.944-0.981; P <0.001) were associated with failure of urinary catheter removal. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that GCS before urinary catheter removal and the timing of urinary catheter removal are independent factors associated with failure of urinary catheter removal among patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgeons use indwelling bladder catheters (IBCs) to avoid urinary retention in patients with epidural analgesic catheters. Reduction of IBC-days is associated with improved catheter-associated urinary tract infection rates (CAUTI). This study investigates real world application of a Nurse-Driven Catheter Removal Protocol (NDCRP) to reduce IBC-days in this patient population. METHODS Patients with epidural catheters and IBC were targeted for IBC removal on post-operative day 1 (POD1). Patients were followed for application of the NDCRP, catheterization need, IBC re-anchoring, and complications. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-three patients had IBCs removed on POD1 (Protocol Group) and 50 patients did not (Non-Protocol Group). There was a reduction in IBC-days in the Protocol Group despite incomplete adherence to the NDCRP (1.55 days vs 4.64 days; P < .001). Ninety-three patients (70%) were able to spontaneously void after early IBC removal. Fourteen patients (11%) were able to spontaneously void after serial in-and-out catheterization (I/O). No significant difference in re-anchoring was found between the protocol and non-protocol groups (26 vs 4 patients; P = .09). CONCLUSIONS Early removal of IBCs (POD1) in patients with epidural catheters with the assistance of an NDCRP is a safe and successful strategy to reduce IBC-days in the hospital.

Abstract
Aim This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and advantages of immediate urinary catheter removal compared with prolonged indwelling catheterization in lung cancer lobectomy. Design This study was designed as a prospective, single‐centre, randomized and open‐label clinical study. Methods People with lung cancer undergoing lobectomy/pneumonectomy were recruited and randomly allocated to two groups. One group had their urinary catheter removed immediately while the other group had it removed 48 hr after surgery. Results No significant difference in the incidence of postoperative urinary retention (POUR) was observed between the two groups. However, the incidence of postoperative catheter‐associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) in the immediate removal group (6.7%) was lower than the control group (17.2%) (p = .030). Furthermore, the incidence of catheter‐associated emergence agitation (CAEA) in the control group (25.3%) was higher than the immediate removal group (8.9%) (p = .007). The average length of hospital stay of the immediate removal group [6.51(4–11) days] was shorter than the control group [7.20(5–12) days] (p = .002). Immediate removal of urinary catheter appeared to have fewer complications and shorter hospital stay than delayed removal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of epidural analgesia (EA) on postoperative morbidity and length of stay (LOS) after HPB surgery remains to be determined. These specific outcomes have been highlighted by the implementation of multiple enhanced recovery pathways (ERAS). The authors hypothesized that EA in the current environment may be associated with LOS and other outcomes. METHODS The American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) databases from 2014 to 2017 for patients undergoing open hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB) surgery were included in a retrospective cohort analysis with propensity score matching (PSM) comparing EA with control. RESULTS Twenty-seven thousand two hundred eighteen patients underwent open HPB surgery, of which 6048 (22%) received EA. There was an increase use of EA over time (from 19.3 to 25.5%, p = 0.001). On PSM, EA was associated with more than half of a day increase in LOS for both pancreatic (p < 0.001) and hepatic surgery (p < 0.001). Furthermore, for pancreatic surgery, there was an increase in urinary tract infection (2.5% vs. 3.3%, p = 0.018), time to drain removal (7.8 vs. 8.7 days, p < 0.001), and discharge to rehabilitation (2.9% vs. 4.3%, p = 0.029). For hepatic surgery, there was an increase in blood transfusion requirements (17% vs. 20%, p = 0.019). There were no differences in overall morbidity and mortality. CONCLUSION In this cohort of over 27,000 patients with granular surgical details, there was a significant increase in LOS associated with EA after HPB surgery, along with increased procedure-specific UTI and blood transfusion. With the ever-increasing need for standardized and efficient patient care pathways that reduce LOS, alternative analgesic adjuncts may be considered to optimize patient outcomes.

Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have gained increasing popularity over the past 10 years, and its overarching objectives are to improve perioperative morbidity and reduce postoperative length of stay. Consensus guidelines from the ERAS Society specific to major gastrectomy were published in 2014, however since that time, prospective and retrospective studies have expanded the collective evidence for both the content and efficacy of ERAS pathways for gastrectomy. This objective of this review was to summarize recent data pertinent to the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative management of gastrectomy patients along an ERAS pathway.

Abstract
To identify predictors of postoperative urinary retention (POUR) following pulmonary resection. Retrospective chart review from a single academic institution of all patients who underwent pulmonary resection between June 2004 and January 2020. The surgical procedures consisted of pneumonectomy, lobectomy and sublobar resections. The primary outcome was occurrence of POUR within 30 days following surgery, defined as painful and palpable bladder, when the patient is unable to pass any urine, and requiring catheterization. A total of 6004 consecutive patients underwent pulmonary resection among which 306 pneumonectomies (5.1%), 3467 lobectomies (57.7%) and 2231 sublobar resection (37.2%). The surgical approach was a thoracotomy (n = 3546; 59.1%), a video-assisted [VATS] (n = 2075; 34.5%) or a robot-assisted thoracoscopy [RATS] (n = 383; 6.4%). POUR occurred in 301 cases (5%). On multivariable logistic regression analysis, male gender (OR 2.30 [1.70-3.17]; P < 0.001), age (OR 1.02 [1.01-1.03]; P < 0.001), benign prostatic hyperplasia (OR 7.08 [4.57-10.83]; P < 0.001), and COPD (OR 1.52 [1.13-2.01]; P = 0.004) were significant predictors of POUR. Conversely, VATS (OR 0.62 [0.46-0.83]; P = 0.001) had a protective effect on the occurrence of POUR. In a large single-center study, we disclosed significant clinical predictors of POUR after pulmonary resection, including age, sex, comorbidities and surgical approach. Prospective studies are necessary to evaluate the efficacy of chemoprophylaxis by perioperative α-blockers in order to prevent POUR.

[PMID: 33561724 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2020.12.055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2020] [Revised: 11/17/2020] [Accepted: 12/16/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of tamsulosin, administered preoperatively, for the prevention of postoperative urinary retention (POUR). POUR is a common complication of abdominal surgery, leading to the use of urinary catheters, which are a risk factor for urinary tract infection. Tamsulosin is a uroselective alpha-1a blocker used for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms. MATERIALS AND METHODS A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was undertaken from August 2015 to May 2018. Adults undergoing elective inpatient abdominal surgery were randomized to receive either tamsulosin 0.4 mg or placebo daily for 7 d before surgery and continuing for up to 7 d postoperatively. The primary outcome was need for at least a single intermittent catheterization postoperatively. Secondary outcomes included first postvoid residual volume, number of catheterizations, need for replacement of an indwelling catheter, hospital length of stay, and urinary tract infection within 30 d of surgery. RESULTS A total of 158 participants were enrolled, with a final analytic cohort of 141 participants. The two groups had similar baseline characteristics, operative characteristics, and timing of catheter removal. There was no difference in the incidence of POUR between the two groups (26% in tamsulosin versus 31% in placebo, P = 0.49). There was also no difference in any of the secondary outcomes between the two groups. Epidural usage, open surgery, and age <50 were identified as risk factors for POUR. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative prophylaxis with tamsulosin is not effective in reducing the incidence of POUR in patients undergoing elective abdominal surgery.

Epidural analgesia for hepatopancreatobiliary operations and postoperative urinary tract infections: an unrecognized association of "best-practices" and adverse outcomes. HPB (Oxford) 2021; 23:71-79.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) is considered "best-practices" for pain-control following HPB operations. It is unknown if TEA increases the risk of UTI. We sought to examine the association of TEA and UTI following HPB operations. METHODS A retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing elective HPB operations was performed (ACS-NSQIP [2014-2016]). Patients were categorized by TEA utilization. The primary outcome was UTI. Multivariable logistic regression models were created to examine the association of TEA with UTI; including sensitivity and interaction analyses for age and gender. RESULTS Among 28,571 patients included, 5764 (20.2%) had TEA. UTI occurred more frequently with TEA (3.5% vs. 2.2%, p < 0.01). After multivariable analysis, TEA was associated with increased risk of UTI (1.59 [1.34-1.89]); when stratified by age and gender, the association persisted with an incremental increased risk observed in males over 70 years (1.91 [1.41-2.59]). UTI was associated with increased risk of sepsis (16.8% vs. 5.6%, P < 0.001), LOS (9 versus 6 days, P < 0.001) and readmission rates (21.4% vs. 12.3%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Despite TEA recommended as a best-practice standard for HPB operations, the increased risk of UTI calls for evaluation of current practices and consideration of alternative strategies for high-risk vulnerable populations - elderly males.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The study was undertaken to assess the incidence of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) after short-term indwelling urethral catheter (IUC) in polytrauma patients admitted to a level one trauma unit using core lower urinary tract symptom score (CLSS). Data of patients admitted between January 2013 and December 2015 and meeting the study criteria were retrieved from the hospital informatics system. Chart review was done, and patients were subsequently interviewed telephonically.
Results
Ninety-four respondents comprising of 81.9% males and 18.1% females out of the 221 eligible patients were contacted. The most common LUTS reported was urethral pain, and 90% had mild to moderate symptoms. No severe LUTS were identified. There was a positive correlation between the duration of IUC and LUTS, but there was no statistically significant association between age and LUTS in our study population.
Conclusion
Short-term duration of IUC in the trauma ICU patient is associated with predominantly mild irritative LUTS which are mostly self-limiting and may not need further investigations and management. CLSS was found to be a useful screening tool. Further studies are needed to confirm findings in our study.

Abstract
Introduction Anesthetic care in patients undergoing thoracic surgery presents specific challenges that require a multidisciplinary approach to management. There remains a need for standardized, evidence-based, continuously updated guidelines for perioperative care in these patients. Methods A multidisciplinary expert group, the Perioperative Anesthesia in Thoracic Surgery (PACTS) group, was established to develop recommendations for anesthesia practice in patients undergoing elective lung resection for lung cancer. The project addressed three key areas: preoperative patient assessment and preparation, intraoperative management (surgical and anesthesiologic care), and postoperative care and discharge. A series of clinical questions was developed, and literature searches were performed to inform discussions around these areas, leading to the development of 69 recommendations. The quality of evidence and strength of recommendations were graded using the United States Preventive Services Task Force criteria. Results Recommendations for intraoperative care focus on airway management, and monitoring of vital signs, hemodynamics, blood gases, neuromuscular blockade, and depth of anesthesia. Recommendations for postoperative care focus on the provision of multimodal analgesia, intensive care unit (ICU) care, and specific measures such as chest drainage, mobilization, noninvasive ventilation, and atrial fibrillation prophylaxis. Conclusions These recommendations should help clinicians to improve intraoperative and postoperative management, and thereby achieve better postoperative outcomes in thoracic surgery patients. Further refinement of the recommendations can be anticipated as the literature continues to evolve.

Risk of Urinary Recatheterization for Thoracic Surgical Patients with Epidural Anesthesia. JOURNAL OF SURGERY AND RESEARCH 2020; 3:163-171.

Abstract
Background: Current quality guidelines recommend the removal of urinary catheters on or before postoperative day two, to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI). The goal of this study was to evaluate the impact urinary catheter removal on the need for urinary recatheterization (UR) of patients with epidural anesthesia undergoing thoracic surgery. Materials and Methods: All patients undergoing thoracic surgery between November 4th, 2017 and January 9th, 2018 who had a urinary catheter placed at the time of intervention were prospectively evaluated. Patient characteristics including: history of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), catheter related variables and rates of UR were collected through chart review and daily visits to the wards. BPH was defined as history of transurethral resection of the prostate or treatment with selective α1-adrenergic receptor antagonists. Results: Over a two-month period 267 patients were included, 124 (46%) were male. Epidural catheters were placed in 88 (33%) patients. Median duration of urinary catheters for the cohort was 1 day (0 days – 18 days), and it was significantly higher in patients with epidural anesthesia (Table 1). Overall 20 (7%) patients required UR. On initial analysis, there was no statistical difference in the rate of UR among patients with and without epidural catheters [9/88 (10%) vs 11/179 (6%), p=0.23). The rate of UR was higher in males than in females (14/124 (11%) vs 6/143 (4%), p=0.03). Fifteen (12%) patients had a diagnosis of BPH. The rate of UR was three-times higher in this group than in those without BPH [4/15 (27%) vs 10/109 (9%) p=0.05]. Four (1%) patients developed a CAUTI during follow-up, and the rate of CAUTI was not different between those with and without epidural catheters. Conclusion: Urinary catheters in patients with thoracic epidural anesthesia can be safely removed, as evidenced by low reinsertion and infection rates. Removal of urinary catheters in patients with a history of BPH should be carefully evaluated, as over 1/4 will require urinary recatheterization in this subgroup. Further study of this group is needed to avoid unnecessary patient discomfort associated with recatheterization.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer surgery, comprising esophagectomy with radical lymphadenectomy, is a complex procedure associated with considerable morbidity and
mortality. The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol which aims to improve perioperative care, minimize complications, and accelerate recovery is showing promise for achieving better perioperative outcomes. ERAS is a multimodal approach that has been reported to shorten the length of hospital stay, reduce surgical stress response, decrease morbidity, and expedite recovery. While ERAS components straddle preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods, they need to be seen in continuum and not as isolated elements. In this review, we elaborate on the components of an ERAS protocol after esophagectomy including preoperative nutrition, prehabilitation, counselling, smoking and alcohol cessation, cardiopulmonary evaluation, surgical technique, anaesthetic management, intra- and postoperative fluid management and pain relief, mobilization and physiotherapy, enteral and oral feeding, removal of drains, and several other components. We also share our own institutional protocol for ERAS following esophageal resections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ERAS guidelines recommend early removal of urinary drainage after colorectal surgery to reduce the risk of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI). Another recommendation is the postoperative use of epidural analgesia (EA). In many types of surgery, EA was shown to increase the risk of postoperative urinary retention (POUR). This study determines the impact of early urinary catheter removal on the incidence of POUR and CAUTI under EA after colorectal surgery. METHODS Eligible patients were scheduled for colorectal surgery within the local ERAS protocol between April 2015 and September 2016. Urinary drainage was removed on the first postoperative day while EA was still in place (early removal group (ER)). The incidences of POUR and CAUTIs were recorded prospectively. Results were compared with a historical control (CG), which was operated between October 2013 and March 2015. RESULTS POUR occurred significantly more often in the ER (ER 7.8%; CG 2.6%), while CAUTIs were significantly less frequent in the ER (13.8%) compared with the CG (30.4%). Patients who developed POUR were characterised by a significantly higher rate of abdominoperineal resections, by a higher frequency of rectal cancer, and a higher male-to-female ratio compared with patients who did not develop POUR. CONCLUSION Early removal of urinary drainage after colorectal surgery while EA is still in place is feasible; it reduces the incidence of CAUTI but increases the risk of POUR. Thus, screening for POUR in patients with failure to void after six to 8 h is mandatory under these clinical conditions.

Suprapubic bladder drainage and epidural catheters following abdominal surgery-A risk for urinary tract infections? PLoS One 2019; 14:e0209825.

Abstract
Background Epidural catheters are state of the art for postoperative analgesic in abdominal surgery. Due to neurolysis it can lead to postoperative urinary tract retention (POUR), which leads to prolonged bladder catheterization, which has an increased risk for urinary tract infections (UTI). Our aim was to identify the current perioperative management of urinary catheters and, second, to identify the optimal time of suprapubic bladder catheter removal in regard to the removal of the epidural catheter. Methods We sent a questionnaire to 102 German hospitals and analyzed the 83 received answers to evaluate the current handling of bladder drainage and epidural catheters. Then, we conducted a retrospective study including 501 patients, who received an epidural and suprapubic catheter after abdominal surgery at the University Hospital Würzburg. We divided the patients into three groups according to the point in time of suprapubic bladder drainage removal in regard to the removal of the epidural catheter and analyzed the onset of a UTI. Results Our survey showed that in almost all hospitals (98.8%), patients received an epidural catheter and a bladder drainage after abdominal surgery. The point in time of urinary catheter removal was equally distributed between before, simultaneously and after the removal of the epidural catheter (respectively: ~28–29%). The retrospective study showed a catheter-associated UTI in 6.7%. Women were affected significantly more often than men (10,7% versus 2,5%, p<0.001). There was a non-significant trend to more UTIs when the suprapubic catheter was removed after the epidural catheter (before: 5.7%, after: 8.4%). Conclusion The point in time of suprapubic bladder drainage removal in relation to the removal of the epidural catheter does not seem to correlate with the rate of UTIs. The current handling in Germany is inhomogeneous, so further studies to standardize treatment are recommended.

Abstract
The association of thoracic epidural analgesia and urinary retention after complex abdominal wall reconstruction (CAWR) is unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the presence of a thoracic epidural, timing of Foley catheter removal, and the rates of urinary retention and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) in patients undergoing CAWR. All patients undergoing CAWR, who had an epidural catheter for postoperative pain management at our institution from September 2015 through April 2016, were prospectively followed. Patients were divided into two groups. Group 1 had their Foley catheters removed on postoperative day one, whereas Group 2 had their Foley catheters removed after epidural removal. The incidence of urinary retention and CAUTI were compared between the two groups. A total of 67 patients met inclusion criteria; 27 (40.3%) patients were in Group 1. Patients in Group 1 were significantly more likely to experience urinary retention requiring Foley catheter replacement ( P = 0.02). There was no statistically significant difference in the rate of CAUTI between the two groups ( P = 0.51). Patients undergoing CAWR with thoracic epidural pain management are at risk of experiencing postoperative urinary retention. Foley catheter removal after epidural removal does not place the patient at an increased risk for CAUTI and therefore should be strongly considered in this patient population.

Abstract
Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) remains one of the most prevalent, yet preventable, health care-associated infections and predominantly occurs in patients with indwelling urinary catheters. Targeted strategies for prevention of CAUTI include limiting urinary catheter use; physician reminder systems, nurse-initiated discontinuation protocols, and automatic stop orders have successfully decreased catheter duration. Alternatives to indwelling catheters should be considered in appropriate patients. If indwelling catheterization is necessary, proper aseptic practices for catheter insertion and maintenance and closed catheter collection system is essential for preventing CAUTI. The use of "bladder bundles" and collaboratives aids in the effective implementation of CAUTI prevention measures.

Abstract
Urinary retention is an important and potentially avoidable postoperative complication. Identifying risk factors for retention is important given expedient bladder decompression is important for long-term outcomes. Age, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and lower urinary tract symptoms are patient factors that predispose to retention. Surgery-related factors include operative time, intravenous fluid administration, type of anesthesia, and procedure type. The mainstay for treatment in the acute setting is Foley catheter placement. Starting alpha-blockers in men is also indicated as they increase voiding trial success. Long-term solutions for chronic retention include a variety of surgeries, with transurethral prostatectomy as the gold standard.

Postoperative urinary retention in colorectal surgery within an enhanced recovery pathway. J Surg Res 2016; 207:70-76.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines for colorectal surgery suggest routine transurethral bladder drainage with early removal to prevent urinary tract infection (UTI). The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for urinary retention (UR). METHODS This retrospective analysis included all colorectal patients since ERAS implementation in May 2011-November 2014. From the prospective ERAS database, over 100 items related to demographics, surgery, compliance, and outcome were analyzed. Risk factors for UR were identified by multiple logistic regressions; then, UR was correlated to functional outcomes and UTI and acute kidney injury rates. RESULTS The study cohort consisted of 513 consecutive patients. Of these, 73 patients (14%) presented with UR. Multivariate analysis identified male gender (odds ratio 1.4; 95% CI, 1-1.8; P = 0.045) and postoperative thoracic epidural analgesia (EDA; odds ratio 2.6; 95% CI, 1.6-4.3; P ≤ 0.001) as independent risk factors for postoperative UR. Functional recovery was impeded in patients with UR, who were less mobile (mobilization day 1 >4 h: 57% versus 70%, P = 0.024) and gained more weight (2.8 ± 2.5 kg versus 1.6 ±3 kg on day 1, P = 0.001) due to fluid overload. Furthermore, patients with urinary catheters reported more pain (visual analog scales day 3: 3.1 ± 2.5 versus 2.2 ± 2.4, P = 0.002) and depended longer on intravenous fluid administration (termination of intravenous fluids later than day 1: 53% versus 39%, P = 0.021). Ten of 73 patients (14%) developed UTI in patients with UR and 42 of 440 (10%) in patients without UR (P = 0.276). Six of 73 patients (8%) developed acute kidney injury in patients with UR and 36 of 440 (8%) in patients without UR (P = 0.991). CONCLUSIONS Male gender and EDA were independent risk factors for postoperative UR which appeared to be a significant impediment for functional recovery.
