Abstract
With the growth of the older adult population, the number of older adults waitlisted for and undergoing kidney and liver transplantation has increased. Transplantation is an important and definitive treatment for this population. We present a contemporary review of the unique preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative issues that patients older than 65 y face when they undergo kidney or liver transplantation. We focus on geriatric syndromes that are common in older patients listed for kidney or liver transplantation including frailty, sarcopenia, and cognitive dysfunction; discuss important considerations for older transplant recipients, which may impact preoperative risk stratification; and describe unique challenges in intraoperative and postoperative management for older patients. Intraoperative challenges in the older adult include using evidence-based best anesthetic practices, maintaining adequate perfusion pressure, and using minimally invasive surgical techniques. Postoperative concerns include controlling acute postoperative pain; preventing cardiovascular complications and delirium; optimizing immunosuppression; preventing perioperative kidney injury; and avoiding nephrotoxicity and rehabilitation. Future studies are needed throughout the perioperative period to identify interventions that will improve patients' preoperative physiologic status, prevent postoperative medical complications, and improve medical and patient-centered outcomes in this vulnerable patient population.

The provision and impact of rehabilitation provided by physiotherapists in children and young people with congenital heart disease following cardiac surgery: a scoping review. Physiotherapy 2024; 122:47-56. [PMID: 38241942 DOI: 10.1016/j.physio.2023.09.001] [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: 10/18/2022] [Revised: 05/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) are at risk of delayed motor development with increased risk for those requiring cardiac surgical intervention. We conducted a scoping review to identify the provision and impact of physiotherapy-delivered rehabilitation in children and young people with CHD following cardiac surgery. METHODS CINAHL, EMBASE, PUBMED, AHMED, EMCARE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, NHS Evidence databases were searched (2000-2022). Included studies were published in full, in English and reported the use of physiotherapy in CHD (participants 0-18years) post-surgical procedure. Articles were screened by title and abstract and through full-text review with results structured in accordance with the PAGER framework and PRISMA- ScR checklist. RESULTS Seven full text peer reviewed papers published 2014-2021 were identified from 5747 papers screened. Included papers were predominantly non-randomised cohort studies with a sample size of between one and 247. Study participants ranged from eight days to 16 years, with a variety of congenital heart defects and surgical procedures. The provision of physiotherapy varied with a range of rehabilitation formats and physiotherapeutic interventions utilised. Physiotherapy provision appeared to have a positive impact on functional/ developmental outcomes and muscle strength. DISCUSSION Assessing the impact and provision of physiotherapy in CHD post-surgical intervention is challenging based on the published literature, due to small sample sizes, lack of control groups, heterogeneous demographics and variable intervention and formats delivered. Further research is required to identify the optimum format of physiotherapy provision and establish the potential impact of physiotherapy delivered rehabilitation on motor function and development.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review was created to highlight important articles from the past year related to the evolving field of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in liver transplantation that are relevant to the transplant anesthesiologist. RECENT FINDINGS The International Liver Transplantation Society (ILTS) recently completed a landmark project, the ERAS4OLT.org project, which culminated in 80 recommendations for ERAS in liver transplantation. These recommendations encompass management for deceased donor recipients, living donor recipients and living donors. This review highlights selected articles relevant to the perioperative management of deceased donor liver transplant recipients. SUMMARY Though, there are now published internationally agreed upon recommendations for ERAS topics specific to liver transplantation, there is an obvious need for further investigation into this area to provide high quality evidence to support these recommendations. It is reasonable to utilize these recommendations in ERAS protocols for individual institutions; however, more evidence is needed in several areas to confirm the effects of these protocols on short-term outcomes.

Efficacy of rehabilitation initiated in the early phase after simultaneous deceased donor liver and kidney transplantation: A case report. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e35324. [PMID: 37746947 PMCID: PMC10519492 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000035324] [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: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE The purpose of this case report is to describe a case of successful early rehabilitation intervention for simultaneous liver and kidney transplantation (SLKT). PATIENT CONCERNS A 51-year-old Japanese man was diagnosed with Caroli disease 27 years ago. Hemodialysis was introduced due to end-stage renal disease 17 years ago. DIAGNOSES After successful SLKT, the patient was extubated on postoperative day (POD) 1, liberated from dialysis on POD 4, and discharged from the intensive care unit on POD 9. INTERVENTIONS Supervised rehabilitation was started on POD 2, and the patient was able to walk 100 m on POD 9. Electrical muscle stimulation therapy was started to improve muscle weakness in both legs on POD 16, and aerobic exercise using a cycle-ergometer was started on POD 24. OUTCOMES The 6-minute walking distance improved from 324 m on POD 14 to 501 m on POD 28. The patient could walk 4000 to 5000 steps per day at hospital discharge, and was discharged home on POD 32. There were no adverse events, including worsening hepatic or renal function, during the rehabilitation period. One month after discharge, the patient was able to perform 30 to 40 minutes of aerobic exercise every day, and returned to work 5 months after discharge. LESSONS This case shows that early rehabilitation intervention immediately after SLKT safely and rapidly improved physical performance without adverse events. The results in the present case suggest that regular physical assessment and appropriate interventions with a variety of exercise modalities can contribute to improved physical performance in SLKT patients.

Abstract
Frailty is a decline in functional reserve across multiple physiological systems. A key component of frailty is sarcopenia, which denotes a loss of skeletal muscle mass and impaired contractile function that ultimately result in physical frailty. Physical frailty/sarcopenia are frequent and contribute to adverse clinical outcomes before and after liver transplantation. Frailty indices, including the liver frailty index, focus on contractile dysfunction (physical frailty), while cross-sectional image analysis of muscle area is the most accepted and reproducible measure to define sarcopenia. Thus, physical frailty and sarcopenia are interrelated. The prevalence of physical frailty/sarcopenia is high in liver transplant candidates and these conditions have been shown to adversely impact clinical outcomes including mortality, hospitalisations, infections, and cost of care both before and after transplantation. Data on the prevalence of frailty/sarcopenia and their sex- and age-dependent impact on outcomes are not consistent in patients on the liver transplant waitlist. Physical frailty and sarcopenic obesity are frequent in the obese patient with cirrhosis, and adversely affect outcomes after liver transplantation. Nutritional interventions and physical activity remain the mainstay of management before and after transplantation, despite limited data from large scale trials. In addition to physical frailty, there is recognition that a global evaluation including a multidisciplinary approach to other components of frailty (e.g., cognition, emotional, psychosocial) also need to be addressed in patients on the transplant waitlist. Recent advances in our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of sarcopenia and contractile dysfunction have helped identify novel therapeutic targets.
