Abstract
PURPOSE We assessed the safety of general thoracic surgery in patients with prior coronary stents undergoing lung resection, based on differences in perioperative antiplatelet therapy management. METHODS We retrospectively examined 150 patients with coronary artery stents who underwent pulmonary resection between July 2009 and July 2018. The impact of the antiplatelet agent on thoracic surgery safety was assessed by comparing perioperative outcomes, including major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events, among the discontinued antiplatelet therapy (group D), heparin bridging (group H), and continuous antiplatelet therapy (group C) groups. RESULTS Groups D, H, and C included twenty-four, eighty-four, and forty-two patients, respectively. Second-generation drug-eluting stents were used in > 50% of the patients. No significant differences were found in the estimated blood loss, transfusion rate, or operative duration. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events occurred in four (2.7%) patients, which was comparable among the groups. In group H, postoperative heart failure and transient ischemic attack with stroke occurred in one patient each. Major bleeding occurred in two (4.7%) patients in group C. CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary resection surgical outcomes in patients with coronary artery stents were feasible regardless of antiplatelet therapy continuation. However, discontinuing dual-antiplatelet or single-antiplatelet therapy in such patients may be reasonable because this generation of drug-eluting stents has a higher safety profile than bare-metal and first-generation drug-eluting stents.

Comparison of Prognostic Value of 10 Biochemical Indices at Admission for Prediction Postoperative Myocardial Injury and Hospital Mortality in Patients with Osteoporotic Hip Fracture. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11226784. [PMID: 36431261 PMCID: PMC9696473 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11226784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the prognostic impact at admission of 10 biochemical indices for prediction postoperative myocardial injury (PMI) and/or hospital death in hip fracture (HF) patients. Methods: In 1273 consecutive patients with HF (mean age 82.9 ± 8.7 years, 73.5% women), clinical and laboratory parameters were collected prospectively, and outcomes were recorded. Multiple logistic regression and receiver-operating characteristic analyses (the area under the curve, AUC) were preformed, the number needed to predict (NNP) outcome was calculated. Results: Age ≥ 80 years and IHD were the most prominent clinical factors associated with both PMI (with cardiac troponin I rise) and in-hospital death. PMI occurred in 555 (43.6%) patients and contributed to 80.3% (49/61) of all deaths (mortality rate 8.8% vs. 1.9% in non-PMI patients). The most accurate biochemical predictive markers were parathyroid hormone > 6.8 pmol/L, urea > 7.5 mmol/L, 25(OH)vitamin D < 25 nmol/L, albumin < 33 g/L, and ratios gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) to alanine aminotransferase > 2.5, urea/albumin ≥ 2.0 and GGT/albumin ≥ 7.0; the AUC for developing PMI ranged between 0.782 and 0.742 (NNP: 1.84−2.13), the AUC for fatal outcome ranged from 0.803 to 0.722, (NNP: 3.77−9.52). Conclusions: In HF patients, easily accessible biochemical indices at admission substantially improve prediction of hospital outcomes, especially in the aged >80 years with IHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is often viewed as an indicator for heart failure. However, the prognostic association and the predictive utility of NT-proBNP for postoperative major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS) among older patients are unclear. METHODS In this study, we included 5033 patients aged 65 years or older who underwent noncardiac surgery with preoperative NT-proBNP recorded. Logistic regression was adopted to model the associations between preoperative NT-proBNP and the risk of MACEs and MINS. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the predictive value of NT-proBNP. RESULTS A total of 5033 patients were enrolled, 63 patients (1.25%) and 525 patients (10.43%) had incident postoperative MACEs and MINS, respectively. Analysis of the receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that the cutoff values of ln (NT-proBNP) for MACEs and MINS were 5.16 (174 pg/mL) and 5.30 (200 pg/mL), respectively. Adding preoperative ln (NT-proBNP) to the Revised Cardiac Risk Index score and the Cardiac and Stroke Risk Model boosted the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves from 0.682 to 0.726 and 0.787 to 0.804, respectively. The inclusion of preoperative NT-proBNP in the prediction models significantly increased the reclassification and discrimination. CONCLUSIONS Increased preoperative NT-proBNP was associated with a higher risk of postoperative MACEs and MINS. The inclusion of NT-proBNP enhances the predictive ability of the preexisting models.

Abstract
Aspirin is considered critical lifelong therapy for patients with established cardiovascular (CV) disease (including coronary artery, cerebrovascular, and peripheral arterial diseases) and is consequently one of the most widely used medications worldwide. However, the indications for aspirin use continue to evolve and recent trials question its efficacy for primary prevention. Although one third of patients undergoing noncardiac surgery and at risk for a major adverse CV event receive aspirin perioperatively, uncertainty still exists about how aspirin should be optimally managed in this context, and significant practice variability remains. Recent trials suggest that the risks of continuing aspirin during the perioperative period outweigh the benefits in many cases, but data on patients with high CV risk remain limited. We performed a comprehensive PubMed and Medline literature search using the following keywords: aspirin, aspirin withdrawal, perioperative, coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral artery disease, and CV disease; we manually reviewed all relevant citations for inclusion. Patients taking aspirin for the primary prevention of CV disease should likely discontinue it during the perioperative period, especially when there is a high risk of bleeding. Patients with established CV disease but without a coronary stent should likely continue aspirin during the perioperative period unless undergoing closed-space surgery. Patients with a history of coronary stenting also likely need aspirin continuation throughout the perioperative period for nonclosed space procedures. Perioperative clinicians need to balance the risks of ceasing aspirin before surgery against its continuation during the perioperative interval using a patient-specific strategy. The guidance on decision-making with regard to perioperative aspirin cessation or continuation using currently available clinical data from studies in high-risk patients along with nonclinical aspirin studies is conflicting and does not enable a simplified or unified answer. However, pertinent guidelines on CV disease management provide a basic framework for aspirin management, and large trial findings provide some insight into the safety of perioperative aspirin cessation in some contexts, although uncertainty on perioperative aspirin still exists. This review provides an evidence-based update on perioperative aspirin management in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery with a focus on recommendations for perioperative clinicians on continuing versus holding aspirin during this context.

Abstract
The present study provides actual data with regard to the prevalence of myocardial ischemia among patients under contemporary cardiovascular prevention strategies undergoing peripheral vascular interventions. We included a total of 200 consecutive patients who underwent gated single-photon emission computed tomography myocardial perfusion study between January 2012 and January 2014 as preoperative evaluation for peripheral vascular interventions at our institution. The baseline medical treatment comprised aspirin (81%), statins (79%), and β-blockers (54%). Thirty-two (16%) patients underwent carotid revascularization; 69 (34.5%) patients underwent lower limb revascularization, and 99 patients underwent aortic interventions. Twenty-six (13%) patients showed evidence of myocardial ischemia, with an extensive ischemic burden identified in seven (3.5%) patients. Within the group of patients with peripheral vasculopathy, those with lower limb arteriopathy had a higher prevalence of ischemia. According to the results of the myocardial perfusion study, the cardiology in charge indicated invasive coronary angiography in 11/26 (42%) patients with evidence of myocardial ischemia. Seven of the 11 (64%) patients who had coronary angiography were revascularized. After a mean follow-up of 24 months, no cardiovascular adverse events were detected.

Abstract
Objectives The revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) is the most widely used risk prediction tool for postoperative cardiac adverse events. We aim to explore the predictive ability of the RCRI in older Chinese patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing noncardiac surgery, which has not been previously evaluated. Methods We performed a multicenter, prospective study. We enrolled a total of 1,202 patients, aged >60 years, with a history of CAD who underwent noncardiac surgery. Perioperative data were extracted from an electronic database. The primary end point was defined as an occurrence of a postoperative major cardiac event (PoMCE) within 30 days. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the performance of the RCRI. A modified RCRI was created and compared with the original RCRI with regard to its ability to predict postoperative cardiac events. Results Of the enrolled patients, 4.3% experienced PoMCE. Most components of the RCRI were not predictive of postoperative cardiac events with the exception of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (odds ratio =2.38, 95% CI: 1.11-5.11; P=0.03). The RCRI performed no better than chance (area under the curve =0.53; 95% CI: 0.45-0.61) in identifying patients' cardiac risk. The modified score had a higher discriminatory ability toward PoMCE (c index, 0.69 versus 0.53; P<0.01). Conclusion The original RCRI shows poor predictive ability in Chinese patients with CAD undergoing noncardiac surgery.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective database analysis. OBJECTIVE To determine the national incidence, mortality, and risk factors for perioperative cardiac complications associated with cervical spine surgery in the United States. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Perioperative myocardial infarctions and cardiac failure are leading causes of mortality in noncardiac surgery. The incidence of these complications has not been reported in cervical spine surgery. METHODS Data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample was obtained from 2002-2009. Patients undergoing anterior or posterior cervical fusion and posterior cervical decompression without fusion for degenerative etiologies were identified. Only elective admissions were included. Incidences of cardiac complications were identified and patient demographics, hospital costs, length of stay, and mortality were compared for each group. Logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of cardiac complications. RESULTS A total of 214,900 elective cervical spine procedures were identified in the United States from 2002-2009. Overall, there were 4.0 cardiac events per 1000 cases. For individual procedures, the incidence was 11.6 per 1000 posterior cervical fusions, 5.2 per 1000 posterior cervical decompressions, and 3.2 per 1000 anterior cervical fusions. Patients with cardiac events were statistically older with greater comorbidities (P < 0.0005). Across all cohorts, length of stay increased an additional 4.5 days, hospital costs increased $13,435, and mortality increased from 0.8 to 65.3 deaths per 1000 cases in the presence of a cardiac event (P < 0.0005). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that independent predictors for cardiac events included age 65 years or more, multilevel fusions, acute blood-loss anemia, congestive heart failure, fluid/electrolyte disorders, and pulmonary circulation disorders. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate an overall incidence of 4.0 cardiac events per 1000 cervical spine surgical procedures. Older patients with greater comorbid risk factors, particularly cardiovascular diseases, were at significantly increased risk for cardiac complications. Due to the large impact cardiac events have on health care utilization and mortality, we recommend thorough risk stratification for older patients undergoing elective cervical spine procedures. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 3.
