Combined pectoralis and serratus anterior plane blocks with or without liposomal bupivacaine for minimally invasive thoracic surgery: A randomized clinical trial. J Clin Anesth 2024; 97:111550. [PMID: 39029153 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinane.2024.111550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive thoracic surgery is associated with substantial pain that can impair pulmonary function. Fascial plane blocks may offer a favorable alternative to opioids, but conventional local anesthetics provide a limited duration of analgesia. We therefore tested the primary hypothesis that a mixture of liposomal bupivacaine and plain bupivacaine improves the overall benefit of analgesia score (OBAS) during the first three postoperative days compared to bupivacaine alone. Secondarily, we tested the hypotheses that liposomal bupivacaine improves respiratory mechanics, and decreases opioid consumption. METHODS Adults scheduled for robotically or video-assisted thoracic surgery with combined ultrasound-guided pectoralis II and serratus anterior plane block were randomized to bupivacaine or bupivacaine combined with liposomal bupivacaine. OBAS was measured on postoperative days 1-3 and was analyzed with a linear mixed regression model. Postoperative respiratory mechanics were estimated using a linear mixed model. Total opioid consumption was estimated with a simple linear regression model. RESULTS We analyzed 189 patients, of whom 95 were randomized to the treatment group and 94 to the control group. There was no significant treatment effect on total OBAS during the initial three postoperative days, with an estimated geometric mean ratio of 0.93 (95% CI: 0.76, 1.14; p = 0.485). There was no observed treatment effect on respiratory mechanics, total opioid consumption, or pain scores. Average pain scores were low in both groups. CONCLUSIONS Liposomal bupivacaine did not improve OBAS during the initial postoperative three days following minimally invasive thoracic procedures. Furthermore, there was no improvement in respiratory mechanics, no reduction in opioid consumption, and no decrease in pain scores. Thus, the data presented here does not support the use of liposomal bupivacaine over standard bupivacaine to enhance analgesia after minimally invasive thoracic surgery. SUMMARY STATEMENT For minimally invasive thoracic procedures, addition of liposomal bupivacaine to plain bupivacaine for thoracic fascial plane blocks does not improve OBAS, reduce opioid requirements, improve postoperative respiratory mechanics, or decrease pain scores.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e31293. [PMID: 38813155 PMCID: PMC11133817 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31293] [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: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Several studies have shown that bedside lung ultrasound findings in postanaesthesia care units (PACUs) and intensive care units (ICUs) correlate with postoperative pulmonary complications(PPCs) after noncardiac major surgery. However, it remains unclear whether lung ultrasound findings can be used as early predictors of PPCs in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The main aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between early postoperative point-of-care lung ultrasound findings and PPCs after cardiac surgery. Methods Two board-certified physicians performed a point-of-care pulmonary ultrasound on cardiac surgery patients approximately 2 h after the patient was admitted to the ICU. Pulmonary complications occurring within 30 days postoperatively were recorded. Logistic regression modeling was used to analyze the relationship between lung ultrasound findings and PPCs. Results PPCs occurred in 61 (30.9 %) of the 197 patients. Lung ultrasound scores(LUS), number of lung consolidation(NLC), and depth of pleural effusion(DPE) were more significant in patients who developed PPCs (P < 0.001). According to the multivariate analysis, NLC≥3(aOR 2.71,95%CI 1.14-6.44; p = 0.024)and DPE >0.95(aOR 3.79,95%CI 1.60-8.99; p = 0.002) were found to be independently associated with PPCs during this study. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that DPE >0.95 and NLC ≥3 were associated with PPCs after cardiac surgery based on bedside lung ultrasound findings in the ICU. When these signs manifest perioperatively, the surgeon should be alerted and the necessary steps should be taken, especially if they present simultaneously.

Inhaled NO at a crossroads in cardiac surgery: current need to improve mechanistic understanding, clinical trial design and scientific evidence. Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 11:1374635. [PMID: 38646153 PMCID: PMC11027901 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1374635] [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: 01/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Inhaled nitric oxide (NO) has been used in pediatric and adult perioperative cardiac intensive care for over three decades. NO is a cellular signaling molecule that induces smooth muscle relaxation in the mammalian vasculature. Inhaled NO has the unique ability to exert its vasodilatory effects in the pulmonary vasculature without any hypotensive side-effects in the systemic circulation. In patients undergoing cardiac surgery, NO has been reported in numerous studies to exert beneficial effects on acutely lowering pulmonary artery pressure and reversing right ventricular dysfunction and/or failure. Yet, various investigations failed to demonstrate significant differences in long-term clinical outcomes. The authors, serving as an advisory board of international experts in the field of inhaled NO within pediatric and adult cardiac surgery, will discuss how the existing scientific evidence can be further improved. We will summarize the basic mechanisms underlying the clinical applications of inhaled NO and how this translates into the mandate for inhaled NO in cardiac surgery. We will move on to the popular use of inhaled NO and will talk about the evidence base of the use of this selective pulmonary vasodilator. This review will elucidate what kind of clinical and biological barriers and gaps in knowledge need to be solved and how this has impacted in the development of clinical trials. The authors will elaborate on how the optimization of inhaled NO therapy, the development of biomarkers to identify the target population and the definition of response can improve the design of future large clinical trials. We will explain why it is mandatory to gain an international consensus for the state of the art of NO therapy far beyond this expert advisory board by including the different major players in the field, such as the different medical societies and the pharma industry to improve our understanding of the real-life effects of inhaled NO in large scale observational studies. The design for future innovative randomized controlled trials on inhaled NO therapy in cardiac surgery, adequately powered and based on enhanced biological phenotyping, will be crucial to eventually provide scientific evidence of its clinical efficacy beyond its beneficial hemodynamic properties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE An increasing number of patients with significant comorbidities present for complex cardiac surgery, with a subgroup requiring discharge to long-term acute care facilities. We aim to examine predictors and mortality after discharge to a long-term acute care facility. METHODS From January 1, 2015, to April 30, 2021, all adult cardiac surgeries were queried and patients discharged to long-term acute care facilities were identified. Baseline characteristics, procedures, and in-hospital complications were compared between long-term acute care facility and non-long-term acute care facility discharges. Random forest analysis was conducted to establish predictors of discharge to long-term acute care facilities. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to determine probability of survival over 7 years. Multivariate regression modeling was used to establish predictors of death after long-term acute care facility discharge. RESULTS Of 29,884 patients undergoing cardiac surgery, 324 (1.1%) were discharged to a long-term acute care facility. The long-term acute care facility group had higher rates of urgent/emergency operation (54% vs 23%; 10% vs 3%, P < .001) and longer mean cardiopulmonary bypass (167 vs 110 minutes, P < .001). By random forest analysis, emergency/urgent status, longer cardiopulmonary bypass duration, redo surgery, endocarditis, and history of dialysis were the most predictive of discharge to a long-term acute care facility. Although the non-long-term acute care facility group demonstrated greater than 95% survival at 6 months, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed 28% 6-month mortality in the long-term acute care facility cohort. Random forest analysis demonstrated that chronic lung disease and postoperative respiratory complications were significant predictors of death at 6 months after discharge to a long-term acute care facility. CONCLUSIONS Patients with chronic lung and kidney disease undergoing prolonged procedures are at higher risk to be discharged to long-term acute care facilities after surgery with worse survival. Efforts to minimize postoperative respiratory complications may reduce mortality after discharge to long-term acute care facilities.

Neural respiratory drive assessment and its correlation with inspiratory muscle strength in patients undergoing open-heart surgery: A cross-sectional study. PHYSIOTHERAPY RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 29:e2073. [PMID: 38284467 DOI: 10.1002/pri.2073] [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: 03/30/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Pulmonary dysfunction and inspiratory muscle weakness are frequently observed after cardiac surgery. Understanding the load on and capacity of respiratory muscles can provide valuable insights into the overall respiratory mechanics and neural regulation of breathing. This study aimed to assess the extent of neural respiratory drive (NRD) and determine whether admission-to-discharge differences in NRD were associated with inspiratory muscle strength changes among patients undergoing open-heart surgery. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted on 45 patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft or heart valve surgery. NRD was measured using a surface parasternal intercostal electromyogram during resting breathing (sEMGpara tidal) and maximal inspiratory effort (sEMGpara max). Maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) was used to determine inspiratory muscle strength. Evaluations were performed on the day of admission and discharge. RESULTS There was a significant increase in sEMGpara tidal (6.9 ± 3.6 μV, p < 0.001), sEMGpara %max (13.7 ± 11.2%, p = 0.008), and neural respiratory drive index (NRDI, the product of EMGpara %max and respiratory rate) (337.7 ± 286.8%.breaths/min, p < 0.001), while sEMGpara max (-43.6 ± 20.4 μV, p < 0.01) and MIP (-24.4 ± 10.7, p < 0.001) significantly decreased during the discharge period. Differences in sEMGpara tidal (r = -0.369, p = 0.045), sEMGpara %max (r = -0.646, p = 0.001), and NRDI (r = -0.639, p = 0.001) were significantly associated with a reduction in MIP. DISCUSSION The findings indicate that NRD increases after open-heart surgery, which corresponds to a decrease in inspiratory muscle strength.

Abstract
QUESTIONS What is the effect of preoperative respiratory muscle training (RMT) on the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after open cardiac surgery? What is the effect of RMT on the duration of mechanical ventilation, postoperative length of stay and respiratory muscle strength? DESIGN Systematic review of randomised trials with meta-analysis. PARTICIPANTS Adults undergoing elective open cardiac surgery. INTERVENTION The experimental groups received preoperative RMT and the comparison groups received no intervention. OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcomes were PPCs, length of hospital stay, respiratory muscle strength, oxygenation and duration of mechanical ventilation. The methodological quality of studies was assessed using the PEDro scale and the overall certainty of the evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach. RESULTS Eight trials involving 696 participants were included. Compared with the control group, the respiratory training group had fewer PPCs (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.70), less pneumonia (RR 0.44, 95% CI 0.25 to 0.78), shorter hospital stay (MD -1.7 days, 95% CI -2.4 to -1.1) and higher maximal inspiratory pressure values at the end of the training protocol (MD 12 cmH2O, 95% CI 8 to 16). The mechanical ventilation time was similar in both groups. The quality of evidence was high for pneumonia, length of hospital stay and maximal inspiratory pressure. CONCLUSION Preoperative RMT reduced the risk of PPCs and pneumonia after cardiac surgery. The training also improved the maximal inspiratory pressure and reduced hospital stay. The effects on PPCs were large enough to warrant use of RMT in this population. REGISTRATION CRD42021227779.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can lead to lung injury and even acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) through triggering systemic inflammatory response. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of CPB time on clinical outcomes in patients with ARDS after cardiac surgery. METHODS Totally, patients with ARDS after cardiac surgery in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2005 to December 2015 were retrospectively included and were further divided into three groups according to the median time of CPB. The primary endpoints were the ICU mortality and in-hospital mortality, and ICU and hospital stay. Restricted cubic spline (RCS), logistic regression, cox regression model, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were adopted to explore the relationship between CPB time and clinical endpoints. RESULTS A total of 54,217 patients underwent cardiac surgery during the above period, of whom 210 patients developed ARDS after surgery and were finally included. The ICU mortality and in-hospital mortality were 21.0% and 41.9% in all ARDS patients after cardiac surgery respectively. Patients with long CPB time (CPB time ≥ 173 min) had longer length of ICU stay (P = 0.011), higher ICU (P < 0.001) mortality and in-hospital(P = 0.002) mortality compared with non-CPB patients (CPB = 0). For each ten minutes increment in CPB time, the hazards of a worse outcome increased by 13.3% for ICU mortality and 9.3% for in-hospital mortality after adjusting for potential factors. ROC curves showed CPB time presented more satisfactory power to predict mortality compared with APCHEII score. The optimal cut-off value of CPB time were 160.5 min for ICU mortality and in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrated the significant prognostic value of CPB time in patients with ARDS after cardiac surgery. Longer time of CPB was associated with poorer clinical outcomes, and could be served as an indicator to predict short-term mortality in patients with ARDS after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG) is an important approach to treating coronary heart disease. However, patients undergoing open heart surgery are at risk of postoperative complications. Cigarette smoking is one of the preoperative risk factors that may increase postoperative complications. Studies show that early mobilization intervention may reduce these complications and improve functional capacity, but the impact of smoking on early outcomes after CABG has been controversial for the past two decades. This quasi-experimental study explored the effects of early mobilization on functional capacity among patients with different smoking histories undergoing CABG. The study involved 51 participants who underwent CABG surgery, divided into three groups: current smokers, former smokers, and non-smokers (n=17 each). A day before surgery, all groups underwent a six-minute walking test (6MWT). Every participant received the same intervention after surgery, including deep breathing exercises, an upper limb range of motion assessment, an incentive spirometer, and walking with and without assistance. Five days postoperatively, all outcomes - including the 6MWT, length of stay (LOS) in the ICU, and postoperative pulmonary complications - were assessed, and the 6MWT was repeated. There was a reduced functional capacity after CABG in ex-smokers (215.8±102 m) and current smokers (272.7±97m) compared to non-smokers (298.5±97.1m) in terms of 6MWT (p<0.05). Current smokers were more likely to have atelectasis after CABG than ex-smokers (76.5% vs. 52.9%), with non-smokers being the least likely to have atelectasis among the three groups (29.4%, p<0.05). Additionally, current smokers required longer ventilator support post-CABG (11.9±7.3 hours) compared to ex-smokers (8.3±4.3 hours) and non-smokers (7±2.5 hours, p<0.01). Smoking status significantly impacts functional capacity reduction after CABG, with current smokers being more susceptible to prolonged ventilator use and atelectasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An asymptomatic respiratory viral infection during cardiac surgery could lead to pulmonary complications and increased mortality. For elective surgery, testing for respiratory viral infection before surgery or vaccination could reduce the number of these pulmonary complications. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between influenzalike illness (ILI) seasons and prolonged mechanical ventilation and inhospital mortality in a Dutch cohort of adult elective cardiac surgery patients. METHODS Cardiac surgery patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit between January 1, 2014, and February 1, 2020, were included. The primary endpoint was the duration of invasive mechanical ventilation in the ILI season compared with baseline season. Secondary endpoints were the median Pao2 to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio on days 1, 3, and 7 and postoperative inhospital mortality. RESULTS A total of 42,277 patients underwent cardiac surgery, 12,994 (30.7%) in the ILI season, 15,843 (37.5%) in the intermediate season, and 13,440 (31.8%) in the baseline season. No hazard rates indicative of a longer duration of invasive mechanical ventilation during the ILI season were found. No differences were found for the median Pao2 to fraction of inspired oxygen ratio between seasons. However, inhospital mortality was higher in the ILI season compared with baseline season (odds ratio 1.67; 95% CI, 1.14-2.46). CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing cardiac surgery during the ILI season were at increased risk of inhospital mortality compared with patients in the baseline season. No evidence was found that this difference is caused by direct postoperative pulmonary complications.

Association of preoperative frailty with pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery in elderly individuals: a prospective cohort study. Aging Clin Exp Res 2023; 35:2453-2462. [PMID: 37620639 DOI: 10.1007/s40520-023-02527-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between preoperative frailty and pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery in elderly patients is unclear. This study was designed to evaluate the relationship between frailty and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing cardiac surgery and to provide a basis for their prevention and treatment. AIMS This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of preoperative frailty on pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery in elderly patients. METHODS Frailty was assessed using the CAF. The diagnosis of PPCs was based on the criteria defined by Hulzebos et al., and patients were classified into a PPCs group and a non-PPCs group. Factors with clinical significance and P < 0.05 in univariate regression analysis were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine the relationship between preoperative frailty and PPCs. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to compare the predictive effects of the CAF, EuroSCORE II, and ASA + age on the occurrence of PPCs. RESULTS A total of 205 patients were enrolled in this study, 31.7% of whom developed PPCs. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that frailty, ASA grade, EuroSCORE II, hemoglobin concentration, FVC, time of operation, and postoperative AKI were associated with the development of PPCs. However, after adjustments for all possible confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression results showed that frailty, prolonged operation time, and postoperative AKI were risk factors for PPCs, and the risk of postoperative PPCs in frail patients was approximately 4.37 times that in nonfrail patients (OR = 4.37, 95%CI: 1.6-11.94, P < 0.05). The predictive efficacy of the traditional perioperative risk assessment tools EuroSCORE II and ASA + age was lower than that of CAF. CONCLUSIONS Frailty before surgery, prolonged operation time, and postoperative AKI were independent risk factors for pulmonary complications after heart surgery in elderly individuals, and CAF was more effective than the traditional risk predictors EuroSCORE II and ASA + age.

Abstract
The modern cardiothoracic intensive care unit (CTICU) developed as a result of advances in critical care, cardiology, and cardiac surgery. Patients undergoing cardiac surgery today are sicker, frailer, and have more complex cardiac and noncardiac morbidities. CTICU providers need to understand postoperative implications of different surgical procedures, complications that can occur in CTICU patients, resuscitation protocols for cardiac arrest, and diagnostic and therapeutic interventions such as transesophageal echocardiography and mechanical circulatory support. Optimum CTICU care requires a multidisciplinary team with collaboration between cardiac surgeons and critical care physicians with training and experience in the care of CTICU patients.

Abstract
Background and Aim To assess the utility of ultrasonic markers like B-line score (LUS), diaphragm thickness (DT), thickening fraction (DTF), and excursion (DE) as predictors of weaning outcomes in children on mechanical ventilation (MV) after cardiac surgery. Methods This was a prospective observational study done in postcardiac surgical intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary care hospital. Children aged 1 month to 18 years, on MV after cardiac surgery from January to November 2017, were included. They were extubated after satisfying institutional weaning criteria. Ultrasound for LUS, DT, DTF, and DE was performed preoperatively, during pressure support ventilation (PSV) before extubation and 4 h after extubation. Results Patients were divided into weaning failure and success groups based on reintubation within 48 h of extubation. Of the 50 evaluated patients, 43 (86%) were weaned successfully and 7 (14%) had weaning failure. The left DTF during PSV was lower in patients weaning failure (0.00%, interquartile range (IQR) 0.00-14.28 vs 16.67%, IQR 8.33-22.20, P = 0. 012). The left DTF≤ 14.64% during PSV (area under receiver's operating curve 0.795, P = 0.014), 85% sensitivity, and 57% specificity (positive likelihood ratio 1.97, negative likelihood ratio 0.25) could predict weaning failure. Conclusion The left DTF during PSV is a good predictor of weaning failure in children on MV in postoperative ICU after congenital cardiac surgery. Take home message In children on mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery, left DTF during pressure support ventilation is a good predictor of weaning failure.

Abstract
Minimally invasive approaches to the aortic valve have been described since 1993, with great hopes that they would become universal and facilitate day-case cardiac surgery. The literature has shown that these procedures can be undertaken with equivalent mortality rates, similar operative times, comparable costs, and some benefits regarding hospital length of stay. The competing efforts of transcatheter aortic valve implantation for these same outcomes have provided an excellent range of treatment options for patients from cardiology teams. We describe the current state of the art, including technical considerations, caveats, and complications of minimal access aortic surgery and predict future directions in this space.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systematic reviews have reported benefits of preoperative inspiratory muscle training in adults undergoing cardiac surgery, however there have been inconsistencies with the devices used. Threshold devices generate a constant inspiratory load independent of respiratory rate. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of preoperative inspiratory muscle training using threshold devices in adults undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS A literature search was conducted across five electronic databases. Seven randomized controlled trials met the inclusion criteria and were critically appraised. The primary outcome was length of hospital stay. Secondary outcomes included postoperative pulmonary complications, quality of life and mortality. RESULTS Seven eligible randomized controlled trials were identified with a total of 642 participants. One study was a post hoc analysis of one of the included studies. Three out of five studies reported a decrease in length of postoperative hospital stay (p < 0.05). A significant reduction in postoperative pulmonary complications was reported by three studies (p < 0.05). There were concerns with bias across all papers. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative threshold inspiratory muscle training has potential to reduce postoperative length of hospital stay and pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery. The evidence on quality of life and mortality is inconclusive. The overall evidence for these conclusions may be influenced by bias.

Abstract
The developed near-field microwave diagnostics of dynamical lung tomography provide information about variations of air and blood content depth structure in the processes of breathing and heart beating that are unattainable for other available methods. The method of dynamical pulse 1D tomography (profiling) is based on solving the corresponding nonlinear ill-posed inverse problem in the extremely complicated case of the strongly absorbing frequency-dispersive layered medium with the dual regularization method—a new Lagrange approach in the theory of ill-posed problems. This method has been realized experimentally by data of bistatic measurements with two electrically small bow-tie antennas that provide a subwavelength resolution. The proposed methods of 3D lung tomography based on the multisensory pulse, multifrequency, or multi-base measurements are based on solving the corresponding integral equations in the Born approximation. The experimental 3D tomography of lung air content was obtained by the results of the multiple 1D pulse profiling by pulse measurements in several grid points over the planar square region of the thorax. Additionally, the possible applicability of multifrequency measurements of scattered harmonic signals in the monitoring of lungs was demonstrated by four-frequency measurements in the process of breathing. The results demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed control in the diagnosis of some lung diseases.

Effect of menthol lozenges after extubation on thirst, nausea, physiological parameters, and comfort in cardiovascular surgery patients: A randomized controlled trial. Intensive Crit Care Nurs 2023; 76:103415. [PMID: 36812765 DOI: 10.1016/j.iccn.2023.103415] [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: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the effect of post-extubation oral menthol lozenges on thirst, nausea, physiological parameters, and comfort level in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY/DESIGN The study was a single-centre, randomized controlled trial. SETTING This study included 119 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery in a training and research hospital. Patients in the intervention group (n = 59) received menthol lozenges at 30, 60, and 90 min after extubation. Patients in the control group (n = 60) received standard care and treatment. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcome of the study was the change in post-extubation thirst assessed by Visual Analogue Scale after using menthol lozenges compared to baseline. Secondary outcomes were changes in post-extubation physiological parameters and nausea severity assessed by Visual Analogue Scale compared to baseline, and comfort level assessed with Shortened General Comfort Questionnaire. RESULTS Between-group comparisons showed that the intervention group had significantly lower thirst scores at all time points and nausea at the first assessment (p < 0.05) and significantly higher comfort scores (p < 0.05) than the control group. There were no significant differences between the groups in physiological parameters at baseline or any of the postoperative assessments (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery, the use of menthol lozenges effectively increased comfort level by reducing post-extubation thirst and nausea, but had no effect on physiological parameters. IMPLICATIONS FOR CLINICAL PRACTICE Nurses should be vigilant for complaints such as thirst, nausea, and discomfort in patients after extubation. Nurses' administration of menthol lozenges to patients may help reduce post-extubation thirst, nausea, and discomfort.

Comparison effects of two muscle relaxant strategies on postoperative pulmonary complications in transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation: a propensity score-matched analysis. J Cardiothorac Surg 2023; 18:50. [PMID: 36721168 PMCID: PMC9890810 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-023-02166-9] [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: 10/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Prior studies have reported conflicting results on the effect of sugammadex on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) and research on this topic in transapical-transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TA-TAVI) was sparse. The current study aimed to investigate whether there were differences in the incidence of PPCs between two muscle relaxant strategies (rocuronium/sugammadex vs. cisatracurium/neostigmine) in patients undergoing TA-TAVI. METHODS This retrospective observational study enrolled 245 adult patients underwent TA-TAVI between October 2018 and January 2021. The patients were grouped according to the type of muscle relaxant strategies (115 with rocuronium/sugammadex in the R/S group and 130 with cisatracurium/neostigmine in the C/N group, respectively). Pre- and intraoperative variables were managed by propensity score match (PSM) at a 1:2 ratio. PPCs (i.e., respiratory infection, pleural effusion, pneumothorax, atelectasis, respiratory failure, bronchospasm and aspiration pneumonitis) were evaluated from the radiological and laboratory findings. RESULTS After PSM, 91 patients in the R/S group were selected and matched to 112 patients in the C/N group. Patients in the R/S group showed lower PPCs rate (45.1% vs. 61.6%, p = 0.019) compared to the C/N group. In addition, the R/S group showed significant shorter extubation time (7.2 ± 6.2 vs. 10.3 ± 8.2 min, p = 0.003) and length of hospital stay (6.9 ± 3.3 vs. 8.0 ± 4.0 days, p = 0.034). CONCLUSION The rocuronium/sugammadex muscle relaxant strategy decreases the incidence of PPCs in patients undergoing TA-TAVI when compared to cisatracurium/neostigmine strategy.

Effect of mechanical ventilation during cardiopulmonary bypass on end-expiratory lung volume in the perioperative period of cardiac surgery: an observational study. J Cardiothorac Surg 2022; 17:331. [PMID: 36550556 PMCID: PMC9784092 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-022-02063-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies explored the impact of ventilation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period with conflicting results. Functional residual capacity or End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) may be disturbed after cardiac surgery but the specific effects of CPB have not been studied. Our objective was to compare the effect of two ventilation strategies during CPB on EELV. METHODS Observational single center study in a tertiary teaching hospital. Adult patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery by sternotomy were included. Maintenance of ventilation during CPB was left to the discretion of the medical team, with division between "ventilated" and "non-ventilated" groups afterwards. Iterative intra and postoperative measurements of EELV were carried out by nitrogen washin-washout technique. Main endpoint was EELV at the end of surgery. Secondary endpoints were EELV one hour after ICU admission, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, driving pressure, duration of mechanical ventilation and post-operative pulmonary complications. RESULTS Forty consecutive patients were included, 20 in each group. EELV was not significantly different between the ventilated versus non-ventilated groups at the end of surgery (1796 ± 586 mL vs. 1844 ± 524 mL, p = 1) and one hour after ICU admission (2095 ± 562 vs. 2045 ± 476 mL, p = 1). No significant difference between the two groups was observed on PaO2/FiO2 ratio (end of surgery: 339 ± 149 vs. 304 ± 131, p = 0.8; one hour after ICU: 324 ± 115 vs. 329 ± 124, p = 1), driving pressure (end of surgery: 7 ± 1 vs. 8 ± 1 cmH2O, p = 0.3; one hour after ICU: 9 ± 3 vs. 9 ± 3 cmH2O), duration of mechanical ventilation (5.5 ± 4.8 vs 8.2 ± 10.0 h, p = 0.5), need postoperative respiratory support (2 vs. 1, p = 1), occurrence of pneumopathy (2 vs. 0, p = 0.5) and radiographic atelectasis (7 vs. 8, p = 1). CONCLUSION No significant difference was observed in EELV after cardiac surgery between not ventilated and ventilated patients during CPB.

BJA OPEN 2022; 4:100105.

Abstract
Background Cardiac surgery produces dorso-basal atelectasis and ventilation/perfusion mismatch, associated with infection and prolonged intensive care. A postoperative lung volume recruitment manoeuvre to decrease the degree of atelectasis is routine. In patients with severe respiratory failure, prone positioning and recruitment manoeuvres may increase survival, oxygenation, or both. We compared the effects of lung recruitment in prone vs supine positions on dorsal inspiratory and end-expiratory lung aeration. Methods In a prospective RCT, 30 post-cardiac surgery patients were randomly allocated to recruitment manoeuvres in the prone (n=15) or supine position (n=15). The primary endpoints were late dorsal inspiratory volume (arbitrary units [a.u.]) and left/right dorsal end-expiratory lung volume change (a.u.), prone vs supine after extubation, measured using electrical impedance tomography. Secondary outcomes included left/right dorsal inspiratory volumes (a.u.) and left/right dorsal end-expiratory lung volume change (a.u.) after prone recruitment and extubation. Results The last part of dorsal end-inspiratory volume after extubation was higher after prone (49.1 a.u.; 95% confidence interval [CI], 37.4-60.6) vs supine recruitment (24.2 a.u.; 95% CI, 18.4-29.6; P=0.024). Improvement in left dorsal end-expiratory lung volume after extubation was higher after prone (382 a.u.; 95% CI, 261-502) vs supine recruitment (-71 a.u., 95% CI, -140 to -2; n=15; P<0.001). After prone recruitment, left vs right predominant end-expiratory dorsal lung volume change disappeared after extubation. However, both left and right end-expiratory volumes were higher in the prone group, after extubation. Conclusions Recruitment in the prone position improves dorsal inspiratory and end-expiratory lung volumes after cardiac surgery. Clinical trial registration NCT03009331.

Size Distribution of Microparticles: A New Parameter to Predict Acute Lung Injury After Cardiac Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:893609. [PMID: 35571221 PMCID: PMC9098995 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.893609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). No precise way, however, is currently available to predict its occurrence. We and others have demonstrated that microparticles (MPs) can induce ALI and were increased in patients with ALI. However, whether MPs can be used to predict ALI after cardiac surgery with CPB remains unknown. Methods In this prospective study, 103 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB and 53 healthy subjects were enrolled. MPs were isolated from the plasma before, 12 h after, and 3 d after surgery. The size distributions of MPs were measured by the LitesizerTM 500 Particle Analyzer. The patients were divided into two subgroups (ALI and non-ALI) according to the diagnosis of ALI. Descriptive and correlational analyzes were conducted between the size distribution of MPs and clinical data. Results Compared to the non-ALI group, the size at peak and interquartile range (IQR) of MPs in patients with ALI were smaller, but the peak intensity of MPs is higher. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the size at peak of MPs at postoperative 12 h was an independent risk factor for ALI. The area under the curve (AUC) of peak diameter at postoperative 12 h was 0.803. The best cutoff value of peak diameter to diagnose ALI was 223.05 nm with a sensitivity of 88.0% and a negative predictive value of 94.5%. The AUC of IQR at postoperative 12 h was 0.717. The best cutoff value of IQR to diagnose ALI was 132.65 nm with a sensitivity of 88.0% and a negative predictive value of 92.5%. Combining these two parameters, the sensitivity reached 92% and the negative predictive value was 96%. Conclusions Our findings suggested that the size distribution of MPs could be a novel biomarker to predict and exclude ALI after cardiac surgery with CPB.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW With an aging cardiac surgery population, prefrail and frail patients are becoming more common. Anesthesiologists will be faced with the decision of how best to provide care to frail patients. Identification, management, and outcomes in frail patients will be discussed in this review. RECENT FINDINGS Frailty is associated with a variety of poor outcomes, such as increased hospital length of stay, medical resource utilization, readmission rates, and mortality. Prehabilitation may play a greater role in the management of frail cardiac surgery patients. SUMMARY As frailty will likely only increase amongst cardiac surgery patients, it is important to develop multicenter trials to study management and treatment options. Until those studies are performed, the care of frail cardiac surgery patients may be best provided by high-volume surgical centers with expertise in the management of frail patients.

Abstract
Objective Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are common incidents associated with an increased hospital stay, readmissions into the intensive care unit (ICU), increased costs, and mortality after cardiac surgery. Our study aims to analyze whether minimally invasive valve surgery (MIVS) can reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications compared to the full median sternotomy (FS) approach. Methods We reviewed the records of 1076 patients who underwent isolated mitral or aortic valve surgery (80 MIVS and 996 FS) in our institution between January 2015 and December 2019. Propensity score-matching analysis was used to compare outcomes between the groups and to reduce selection bias. Results Propensity score matching revealed no significant difference in hospital mortality between the groups. The incidence of PPCs was significantly less in the MIVS group than in the FS group (19% vs. 69%, respectively; P < 0.0001). The most common PPCs were atelectasis (P = 0.034), pleural effusions (P = 0.042), and pulmonary infection (P = 0.001). Prolonged mechanical ventilation time (> 24 h) (P = 0.016), blood transfusion amount (P = 0.006), length of hospital stay (P < 0.0001), and ICU stay (P < 0.0001) were significantly less in the MIVS group. Cardiopulmonary bypass (CBP), aortic cross-clamping, and operative time intervals were significantly longer in the MIVS group than in the matched FS group (P < 0.001). A multivariable analysis revealed a decreased risk of PPCs in patients undergoing MIVS (odds ratio, 0.25; 95% confidence interval, 0.006–0.180; P < 0.0001). Conclusion MIVS for isolated valve surgery reduces the risk of PPCs compared with the FS approach.

Abstract
Background: Postoperative pulmonary complications remain a leading cause of increased morbidity, mortality, longer hospital stays, and increased costs after cardiac surgery; therefore, our study aims to analyze whether minimally invasive valve surgery (MIVS) for both aortic and mitral valves can improve pulmonary function and reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications when compared with the full median sternotomy (FS) approach. Methods: A comprehensive systematic literature research was performed for studies comparing MIVS and FS up to February 2021. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and propensity score-matching (PSM) studies comparing early respiratory function and pulmonary complications after MIVS and FS were extracted and analyzed. Secondary outcomes included intra- and postoperative outcomes. Results: A total of 10,194 patients from 30 studies (6 RCTs and 24 PSM studies) were analyzed. Early mortality differed significantly between the groups (MIVS 1.2 vs. FS 1.9%; p = 0.005). Compared with FS, MIVS significantly lowered the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (odds ratio 0.79, 95% confidence interval [0.67, 0.93]; p = 0.004) and improved early postoperative respiratory function status (mean difference -24.83 [-29.90, -19.76]; p < 0.00001). Blood transfusion amount was significantly lower after MIVS (p < 0.02), whereas cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamp time were significantly longer after MIVS (p < 0.00001). Conclusions: Our study showed that minimally invasive valve surgery decreases the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications and improves postoperative respiratory function status.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective was to develop a novel scoring system that would be predictive of postoperative pulmonary complications in critically ill patients after cardiac and major vascular surgery. METHODS A total of 17,433 postoperative patients after coronary artery bypass graft, valve, or thoracic aorta repair surgery admitted to the cardiovascular intensive care units at Cleveland Clinic Main Campus from 2009 to 2015. The primary outcome was the composite of postoperative pulmonary complications, including pneumonia, prolonged postoperative mechanical ventilation (>48 hours), or reintubation occurring during the hospital stay. Elastic net logistic regression was used on the training subset to build a prediction model that included perioperative predictors. Five-fold cross-validation was used to select an appropriate subset of the predictors. The predictive efficacy was assessed with calibration and discrimination statistics. Post hoc, of 13,353 adult patients, we tested the clinical usefulness of our risk prediction model on 12,956 patients who underwent surgery from 2015 to 2019. RESULTS Postoperative pulmonary complications were observed in 1669 patients (9.6%). A prediction model that included baseline and demographic risk factors along with perioperative predictors had a C-statistic of 0.87 (95% confidence interval, 0.86-0.88), with a corrected Brier score of 0.06. Our prediction model maintains satisfactory discrimination (C-statistics of 0.87) and calibration (Brier score of 0.07) abilities when evaluated on an independent dataset of 12,843 recent adult patients who underwent cardiovascular surgery. CONCLUSIONS A novel prediction nomogram accurately predicted postoperative pulmonary complications after major cardiac and vascular surgery. Intensivists may use these predictors to allow for proactive and preventative interventions in this patient population.

Associations of creatinine/cystatin C ratio and postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery: a retrospective study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:16881. [PMID: 34413410 PMCID: PMC8376894 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-96442-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Sarcopenia along with nutritional status are associated with postoperative pulmonary complications in various surgical fields. Recently, the creatinine/cystatin C ratio and CONtrolling NUTritional status score were introduced as biochemical indicators for sarcopenia and malnutrition, respectively. We aimed to investigate the associations among these indicators and postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery. We reviewed the medical records of 605 elderly patients (aged ≥ 65 years) who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery from January 2010 to December 2019. Postoperative pulmonary complications (pneumonia, prolonged ventilation [> 24 h], and reintubation during post-surgical hospitalisation) occurred in 80 patients. A 10-unit increase of creatinine/cystatin C ratio was associated with a reduced risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (odds ratio: 0.80, 95% confidence interval: 0.69–0.92, P = 0.001); the optimal cut-off values for predicting postoperative pulmonary complications was 89.5. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that age, congestive heart failure, and creatinine/cystatin C ratio < 89.5 (odds ratio 2.36, 95% confidence interval 1.28–4.37) were independently associated with the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications, whereas CONtrolling NUTritional status score was not. A low creatinine/cystatin C ratio was associated with an increased risk of developing postoperative pulmonary complications after off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.

Lung expansion therapy consisting of numerous techniques is routinely used for the prevention and treatment of these complications. Objectives Our study aimed to compare the effects of diaphragmatic breathing (DB), flow (FS) and volume-oriented incentive spirometer (VS) in patients following valve replacement surgery. Methods 29 patients posted valve replacement surgeries were randomly assigned to VS, FS and DB groups. Patients underwent preoperative training and seven-day rehabilitation post-surgery. Pulmonary function tests were performed before surgery and for seven days afterward. On the seventh postoperative day, patients performed a six-minute walk test and completed a functional difficulties questionnaire (FDQ). Results Pulmonary function test values reduced in all three groups postoperatively when compared to the preoperative values but improved by the seventh postoperative day (p < 0.05). On comparing the seventh postoperative day values to the preoperative values, the VS group had no significant difference (p = 1.00) (Forced Vital Capacity- % change: DB-37.76, VS-1.59, FS-27.98), indicating that the value had nearly returned to the baseline. As compared to the DB and FS groups, FVC showed a greater improvement in the VS group (p = 0.01 and p = 0.06 respectively). No significant differences were observed between groups for distance walked (p > 0.05), however, FDQ scores demonstrated positive changes in favor of VS when contrasted with FS or DB (p < 0.05). Conclusion Diaphragmatic breathing, flow or volume-oriented spirometer could improve pulmonary function in the postoperative period. The volume-oriented spirometer, however, was found to be the most beneficial among the three techniques in improving patients’ pulmonary function and daily life functional tasks. Further research is warranted to confirm these findings. The present pilot randomized clinical trial is the first of a kind that exhibits the effects of three breathing exercises in patients following valve replacement cardiac surgery. The study demonstrates the individual and contrasting effects of volume spirometry, volume spirometry and deep breathing exercise between preoperative day until postoperative day 7 in terms of pulmonary function and function activities.

A multicentre roadmap to restart elective cardiac surgery after COVID-19 peak in an Italian epicenter. J Card Surg 2021; 36:3308-3316. [PMID: 34173273 PMCID: PMC9292840 DOI: 10.1111/jocs.15776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Accepted: 05/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND During the Italian Phase-2 of the coronavirus pandemic, it was possible to restart elective surgeries. Because hospitals were still burdened with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, it was focal to design a separate "clean path" for the surgical candidates and determine the possible effects of major surgery on previously infected patients. METHODS From May to July 2020 (postpandemic peak), 259 consecutive patients were scheduled for elective cardiac surgery in three different centers. Our original roadmap with four screening steps included: a short item questionnaire (STEP-1), nasopharyngeal swab (NP) (STEP-2), computed tomography (CT)-scan using COVID-19 reporting and data system (CO-RADS) scoring (STEP-3), and final NP swab before discharge (STEP-4). RESULTS Two patients (0.8%) resulted positive at STEP-2: one patient was discharged home for quarantine, the other performed a CT-scan (CO-RADS: <2), and underwent surgery for unstable angina. Chest-CT was positive in 6.3% (15/237) with mean CO-RADS of 2.93 ± 0.8. Mild-moderate lung inflammation (CO-RADS: 2-4) did not delay surgery. Perioperative mortality was 1.15% (3/259), and cumulative incidence of pulmonary complications was 14.6%. At multivariable analysis, only age and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time were independently related to pulmonary complications composite outcome (age >75 years: odds ratio [OR]: 2.6; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.25-5.57; p = 0.011; CPB >90 min. OR: 4.3; 95% CI: 1.84-10.16; p = 0.001). At 30 days, no periprocedural contagion and rehospitalization for COVID-19 infections were reported. CONCLUSIONS Our structured roadmap supports the safe restarting of an elective cardiac surgery list after a peak of a still ongoing COVID-19 pandemic in an epicenter area. Mild to moderate CT residuals of coronavirus pneumonia do not justify elective cardiac surgery procrastination.

Abstract
Post-cardiotomy extracorporeal life support (PC-ECLS) in adult patients has been used only rarely but recent data have shown a remarkable increase in its use, almost certainly due to improved technology, ease of management, growing familiarity with its capability and decreased costs. Trends in worldwide in-hospital survival, however, rather than improving, have shown a decline in some experiences, likely due to increased use in more complex, critically ill patients rather than to suboptimal management. Nevertheless, PC-ECLS is proving to be a valuable resource for temporary cardiocirculatory and respiratory support in patients who would otherwise most likely die. Because a comprehensive review of PC-ECLS might be of use for the practitioner, and possibly improve patient management in this setting, the authors have attempted to create a concise, comprehensive and relevant analysis of all aspects related to PC-ECLS, with a particular emphasis on indications, technique, management and avoidance of complications, appraisal of new approaches and ethics, education and training.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in treatment strategies, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after cardiac surgery remains associated with high morbidity and mortality. A method of screening patients for risk of ARDS after cardiac surgery is needed. OBJECTIVES To develop and validate an ARDS prediction score designed to identify patients at high risk of ARDS after cardiac or aortic surgery. METHODS An ARDS prediction score was derived from a retrospective derivation cohort and validated in a prospective cohort. Discrimination and calibration of the score were assessed with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, respectively. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess model performance at different cutoff points. RESULTS The retrospective derivation cohort consisted of 201 patients with and 602 patients without ARDS who had undergone cardiac or aortic surgery. Nine routinely available clinical variables were included in the ARDS prediction score. In the derivation cohort, the score distinguished patients with versus without ARDS with area under the curve of 0.84 (95% CI, 0.81-0.88; Hosmer-Lemeshow P = .55). In the validation cohort, 46 of 1834 patients (2.5%) had ARDS develop within 7 days after cardiac or aortic surgery. Area under the curve was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.71-0.85), and the score was well calibrated (Hosmer-Lemeshow P = .53). CONCLUSIONS The ARDS prediction score can be used to identify high-risk patients from the first day after cardiac or aortic surgery. Patients with a score of 3 or greater should be closely monitored. The score requires external validation before clinical use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the incremental benefit of lung ultrasound (LUS) over clinical examination and chest x-rays (CXR) together (clinico-radiologic examination) for the diagnosis of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Tertiary care center. PARTICIPANTS One hundred children after corrective congenital cardiac surgery with left-to-right shunts. INTERVENTION Participants were independently evaluated with clinico-radiologic examination by the treating team, as well as LUS by an investigator at 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after surgery. After recording the diagnoses, the LUS findings were disclosed to the treating team and a final diagnosis was made. CXR scores and LUS scores were evaluated for their ability to predict PPC. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 34 cases of PPCs were observed. Of these, 32 each were detected by clinico-radiologic examination and LUS alone. Addition of LUS improved total number of PPCs detected in the early postoperative period but not in the late postoperative period. Preoperative and early postoperative LUS scores were superior to CXR scores in predicting occurrence of PPC (area under receiver operating characteristics curve [AUROC] 0.920 v 0.732; p < 0.001 preoperatively; AUROC 0.987 v 0.858, p = 0.001 at 12 hours postoperatively). Multivariate analysis suggested LUS score as an independent predictor of PPC, and LUS score along with aortic cross-clamp time as independent predictors of duration of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit stay. CONCLUSIONS LUS improves identification of PPC over clinico-radiologic examination in the early postoperative period. Preoperative LUS scores have better predictive ability than CXR scores for the occurrence of PPC.

Abstract
AIM Angong Niuhuang pill (ANP) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) drug widely used for treating stroke. This study aimed to investigate the effect of ANP on respiratory nursing outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients following cardiac surgery. METHODS A total of 80 COPD patients following cardiac surgery were enrolled and randomized into the control group receiving routine postoperative nursing and ANP group additionally receiving ANP treatment for 3 days (n = 40 for both group). The frequency of back percussion, time of back percussion, amount of expectoration, arterial blood gas levels were compared between groups. RESULTS Compared to the control group, the ANP group had a significantly shorter daily mean time of back percussion at day 3 (p = .036) and day 7 (p = .014). The daily mean amount of expectoration was higher at day3 (p = .018) but lower at day 7 (p = .043) in the ANP group than in the control group. In addition, the ANP group had significantly higher hemoglobin saturation (SpO2 ) and partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2 ) but lower partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2 ) at both day 3 and day 7 than the control group (all p < .05). Furthermore, the time of postoperative aerosol inhalations (p = .041), pulmonary infection rate (p = .025) and postoperative hospital stay (p = .036) were significantly reduced in the ANP group. The ANP group had significantly lower TCM symptom scores at day 3 and day 7 after surgery. CONCLUSION These results suggested that ANP treatment can effectively promote the postoperative recovery and respiratory nursing outcomes in COPD patients following cardiac surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative major pulmonary complications (MPCs) continue to be leading causes of increased morbidity and death after cardiac surgery. Although various risk factors have been identified, reports on the association between sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and postoperative MPCs remain inconclusive. RESEARCH QUESTION What is the incidence of the composite end point postoperative MPCs? What are predictors for postoperative MPCs in patients without SDB, with OSA, and with central sleep apnea (CSA) who undergo cardiac surgery? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS In this subanalysis of the ongoing prospective observational study "Impact of Sleep-disordered breathing on Atrial Fibrillation and Perioperative complications in Patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass grafting Surgery (CONSIDER AF)," preoperative risk factors for postoperative MPCs were examined in 250 patients who underwent cardiac surgery. Postoperative MPCs (including respiratory failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, pneumonia, or pulmonary embolism) were registered prospectively within the first seven postoperative days. Presence and type of SDB were assessed the night prior to surgery with the use of portable SDB-monitoring. RESULTS Patients with SDB experienced significantly more often postoperative MPCs than patients without SDB (24% vs 7%; P < .001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that CSA (OR, 4.68 [95% CI, 1.78-12.26]; P = .002), heart failure (OR, 2.65 [95% CI, 1.11-6.31]; P = .028), and a history of transient ischemic attack or stroke (OR, 2.73 [95% CI, 1.07-6.94]; P = .035) were associated significantly with postoperative MPCs. Compared with patients without MPCs, those with postoperative MPCs had a significantly longer hospital stay (median days, 9 [25th/75th percentile, 7/13] vs 19 [25th/75th percentile, 11/38]; P < .001). INTERPRETATION Among established risk factors for postoperative MPCs, CSA, heart failure, and history of transient ischemic attack or stroke were associated significantly with postoperative MPCs. Our findings contribute to the identification of patients who are at high-risk for postoperative MPCs. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02877745.

Neostigmine Versus Sugammadex for Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade and Effects on Reintubation for Respiratory Failure or Newly Initiated Noninvasive Ventilation: An Interrupted Time Series Design. Anesth Analg 2020; 131:141-151. [PMID: 31702700 DOI: 10.1213/ane.0000000000004505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary complications related to residual neuromuscular blockade lead to morbidity and mortality. Using an interrupted time series design, we tested whether proportions of reintubation for respiratory failure or new noninvasive ventilation were changed after a system-wide transition of the standard reversal agent from neostigmine to sugammadex. METHODS Adult patients undergoing a procedure with general anesthesia that included pharmacologic reversal of neuromuscular blockade and admission ≥1 night were eligible. Groups were determined by date of surgery: August 15, 2015 to May 10, 2016 (presugammadex), and August 15, 2016 to May 11, 2017 (postsugammadex). The period from May 11, 2016 to August 14, 2016 marked the institutional transition (washout/wash-in) from neostigmine to sugammadex. The primary outcome was defined as a composite of reintubation for respiratory failure or new noninvasive ventilation. Event proportions were parsed into 10-day intervals in each cohort, and trend lines were fitted. Segmented logistic regression models appropriate for an interrupted time series design and adjusting for potential confounders were utilized to evaluate the immediate effect of the implementation of sugammadex and on the difference between preintervention and postintervention slopes of the outcomes. Models containing all parameters (full) and only significant parameters (parsimonious) were fitted and are reported. RESULTS Of 13,031 screened patients, 7316 patients were included. The composite respiratory outcome occurred in 6.1% of the presugammadex group and 4.2% of the postsugammadex group. Adjusted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the composite respiratory outcome were 0.795 (95% CI, 0.523-1.208) for the immediate effect of intervention, 0.986 (95% CI, 0.959-1.013) for the difference between preintervention and postintervention slopes in the full model, and 0.667 (95% CI, 0.536-0.830) for the immediate effect of the intervention in the parsimonious model. CONCLUSIONS The system-wide transition of the standard pharmacologic reversal agent from neostigmine to sugammadex was associated with a reduction in the odds of the composite respiratory outcome. This observation is supported by nonsignificant within-group time trends and a significant reduction in intercept/level from presugammadex to postsugammadex in a parsimonious logistic regression model adjusting for covariates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery, the prevalence of inspiratory muscle weakness is not well-understood. This information could guide pre-operative therapy. OBJECTIVES To determine the prevalence of inspiratory muscle weakness in preoperative cardiac surgery patients, and describe relationships between pre-operative factors (including maximal inspiratory pressure, MIP) and post-operative pulmonary complications (PPCs). METHODS Prospective study of elective cardiac surgery patients. Pre-operative MIP was measured (cmH2O) and PPC data were extracted from medical records (Melbourne Group Score) while age, height, weight, frailty and physical activity levels were captured via questionnaire. Backwards-stepwise logistic regression was used to describe associations. RESULTS 24 participants were recruited (79% male, age 70 ± 10.7, BMI 26.8 ± 4.14). The prevalence of inspiratory muscle weakness (MIP < 60% predicted) was 25% (n = 6). PPCs were associated with body mass index (BMI) (r = 0.464, p = 0.022). CONCLUSION The prevalence of pre-operative inspiratory muscle weakness was 25%. BMI may be an important determinant of PPCs in elective cardiac surgery patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of pecto-intercostal fascial plane block (PIFB) on postoperative opioid requirements, pain scores, lengths of intensive care unit and hospital stays and incidence of postoperative delirium in cardiac surgical patients. DESIGN Single- center, prospective, randomized (1:1), quadruple- blinded, placebo-controlled trial. SETTING Single center, tertiary- care center. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 80 adult cardiac surgical patients (age >18 y) requiring median sternotomy. INTERVENTION Patients were randomly assigned to receive ultrasound-guided PIFB, with either 0.25% bupivacaine or placebo, on postoperative days 0 and 1. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of the 80 patients randomized, the mean age was 65.78 ± 8.73 in the bupivacaine group and 65.70 ± 9.86 in the placebo group (p = 0.573). Patients receiving PIFB with 0.25% bupivacaine showed a statistically significant reduction in visual analog scale scores (4.8 ± 2.7 v 5.1 ± 2.6; p < 0.001), but the 48-hour cumulative opioid requirement computed as morphine milligram equivalents was similar (40.8 ± 22.4 mg v 49.1 ± 26.9 mg; p = 0.14). There was no difference in the incidence of postoperative delirium between the groups evaluated using the 3-minute diagnostic Confusion Assessment Method (3/40 [7.5%] v 5/40 [12.5%] placebo; p = 0.45). CONCLUSION Patients who received PIFB with bupivacaine showed a decline in cumulative opioid consumption postoperatively, but this difference between the groups was not statistically significant. Low incidence of complications and improvement in visual analog scale pain scores suggested that the PIFB can be performed safely in this population and warrants additional studies with a larger sample size.

Abstract
Background There are limited reports available on preferred chest physiotherapy methods in patients with coronary artery graft (CABG) surgery. Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the effect of active cyclic breathing technique (ACBT) and routine chest physiotherapy on pain and respiratory parameters in patients undergoing CABG surgery. Methods This randomized clinical trial was carried out from July to November 2018. Seventy patients were selected randomly after CABG according to inclusion criteria and then assigned in two groups (35 in ACBT and 35 in routine physiotherapy) by random minimization method. The arterial blood gas levels, pain, heart rate, and respiratory rate were measured for both groups before and after the intervention on two consecutive days after surgery. Data were analyzed by SPSS software V.22, at a significance level of 0.05. Results The two groups were similar in terms of demographic variables. In within group comparison in the physiotherapy group, the level of PaO2, HR, RR, and pain increased significantly on both days (P = 0.001), SaO2 on the first day (P = 0.005) and second day (P = 0.001), and PaCO2 on the first day (P = 0.02). In ACBT group, the level of SaO2, HR, RR, and pain increased significantly on both days (P = 0.001), HCO3 on the first day (P = 0.021), and PaO2 on the second day (P = 0.001) post intervention. In between group comparison, on the first day, the level of PH (P = 0.034), and on the second day HCO3 (P = 0.032) decreased, while RR (P = 0.011) increased significantly in the physiotherapy group, at post-intervention phase. Conclusions ACBT and routine physiotherapy had similar effects on arterial oxygenation, HR, and pain perception following CABG surgery. The physiotherapy on the second day increased the RR to an abnormal range.

Abstract
Coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass activates the human innate immune system (HIIS) and invokes a vigorous inflammatory response that is systemic. This massive inflammatory reaction can contribute to the development of postoperative complications that could topple the state of the system from health to disease, or even to some extent, death. The body, after all, is in a state where majority of its immune cell populations have been depleted, and sometimes needs days or even longer to recuperate. To obtain a deeper understanding on how HIIS responds to complications after cardiac surgery, we perturb the immune system model that we have developed in an earlier work in-silico by adding another source of inflammation triggering moieties (ITMs) hours after surgery in various regimes. A critical transition occurs upon the addition of a critical concentration of ITMs when the insult is sustained for approximately 3 h – a total concentration that corresponds to the fatal concentration of ITMs documented in literature. By perturbing HIIS in-silico with additional sources of ITMs to mimic persistent and recurring episodes of post-surgery complications, we are able to specify under which conditions critical transitions occur in HIIS, as well as pinpoint important blood parameters that exhibit critical transitions in our model. More importantly, by applying early warning signals on the clinical trial data used to calibrate and validate HIIS model, we are able to detect blood parameters that exhibit critical transitions in patients who died post-surgery, where pro-inflammatory cytokines are deemed potential markers for critical transitions.

Abstract
Goal-directed therapy based on brain-oxygen saturation (bSo2) is controversial and hotly debated. While meta-analyses of aggregated data have shown no clinical benefit for brain near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-based interventions after cardiac surgery, no network meta-analyses involving both major cardiac and noncardiac procedures have yet been undertaken. Randomized controlled trials involving NIRS monitoring in both major cardiac and noncardiac surgery were included. Aggregate-level data summary estimates of critical outcomes (postoperative cognitive decline (POCD)/postoperative delirium (POD), acute kidney injury, cardiovascular events, bleeding/need for transfusion, and postoperative mortality) were obtained. NIRS was only associated with protection against POCD/POD in cardiac surgery patients (pooled odds ratio (OR)/95% confidence interval (CI)/I2/number of studies (n): 0.34/0.14-0.85/75%/7), although a favorable effect was observed in the analysis, including both cardiac and noncardiac procedures. However, the benefit of the use of NIRS monitoring was undetectable in Bayesian network meta-analysis, although maintaining bSo2 > 80% of the baseline appeared to have the most pronounced impact. Evidence was imprecise regarding acute kidney injury, cardiovascular events, bleeding/need for transfusion, and postoperative mortality. There is evidence that brain NIRS-based algorithms are effective in preventing POCD/POD in cardiac surgery, but not in major noncardiac surgery. However, the specific target bSo2 threshold has yet to be determined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are life-threatening complications after surgery, warranting prophylaxis. However prophylaxis is not uniformly practiced among cardiac surgical patients. This study aimed to characterize the national incidence, mortality, and costs associated with thromboembolism after cardiac surgery. METHODS The 2005 to 2015 National Inpatient Sample was used to identify all adult patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting or valve surgery. International Classification of Disease codes were used to identify patients with deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. RESULTS Of approximately 3 million patients undergoing cardiac surgery, 1.62% developed deep venous thrombosis and 0.38% pulmonary embolism. Those with deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism were more commonly women (33.2% and 36.2 vs 31.2%, P < .001), older (68.1 and 66.0% vs 65.7 years, P < .001), and had a higher Elixhauser comorbidity index (4.0 and 4.7 vs 3.7, P < .001). Deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism were associated with increased mortality (4.95% and 14.8% vs 2.67%, P < .001). After adjustment for baseline differences, deep venous thrombosis was associated with an incremental increase in cost of $12,308, whereas pulmonary embolism was associated with $13,879 cost increase after cardiac surgery. Pulmonary embolism was an independent predictor of mortality (adjusted odds ratio, 3.39; 95% confidence interval, 2.74-4.18). CONCLUSIONS The mortality and financial burden related to thromboembolism in cardiac surgery are significant. Prophylaxis may be indicated in cardiac surgery patients to improve quality of care and reduce healthcare costs. Future controlled randomized trials investigating the benefit of thromboembolism prophylaxis in cardiac surgery are warranted.

Abstract
The most common cause of acute lung injury is ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), during which mitochondrial damage occurs. We have previously demonstrated that mitochondrial transplantation is an efficacious therapy to replace or augment mitochondria damaged by IRI, allowing for enhanced muscle viability and function in cardiac tissue. Here, we investigate the efficacy of mitochondrial transplantation in a murine lung IRI model using male C57BL/6J mice. Transient ischemia was induced by applying a microvascular clamp on the left hilum for 2 h. Upon reperfusion mice received either vehicle or vehicle-containing mitochondria either by vascular delivery (Mito V) through the pulmonary artery or by aerosol delivery (Mito Neb) via the trachea (nebulization). Sham control mice underwent thoracotomy without hilar clamping and were ventilated for 2 h before returning to the cage. After 24 h recovery, lung mechanics were assessed and lungs were collected for analysis. Our results demonstrated that at 24 h of reperfusion, dynamic compliance and inspiratory capacity were significantly increased and resistance, tissue damping, elastance, and peak inspiratory pressure (Mito V only) were significantly decreased (P < 0.05) in Mito groups as compared with their respective vehicle groups. Neutrophil infiltration, interstitial edema, and apoptosis were significantly decreased (P < 0.05) in Mito groups as compared with vehicles. No significant differences in cytokines and chemokines between groups were shown. All lung mechanics results in Mito groups except peak inspiratory pressure in Mito Neb showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) as compared with Sham. These results conclude that mitochondrial transplantation by vascular delivery or nebulization improves lung mechanics and decreases lung tissue injury.

Yayla A, Özer N. Effects of early mobilization protocol performed after cardiac surgery on patient care outcomes. Int J Nurs Pract 2019; 25:e12784. [PMID: 31617651 DOI: 10.1111/ijn.12784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2018] [Revised: 08/09/2019] [Accepted: 08/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to determine the effects of an early mobilization protocol performed in patients who underwent cardiac surgery on post-operative outcomes. BACKGROUND Post-operative complications are common in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Early mobilization is recommended for patients who undergo cardiac surgery to prevent complications and achieve successful outcomes in post-operative care. DESIGN The study design was quasi-experimental with a control group. METHODS Participants were patients who underwent cardiac surgery between January and October 2015. The study included 102 patients (51 patients each in the experimental and control groups). The introductory characteristics form, the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ), duration of hospital stay (post-operatively), and development of a post-operative late complications form were used to collect data. RESULTS The study results revealed that patients in the experimental group had better improvement in RCSQ scores, shorter duration of hospitalization, and fewer late complications after surgery than patients in the control group. CONCLUSION Early mobilization is feasible in adult cardiac surgery patients and has significant benefits. More research is recommended into the effectiveness of early mobilization in different patient groups.

Abstract
Respiratory muscle dysfunction after open-heart surgery may influence the cardiopulmonary interactions. The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation between change in the neural respiratory drive (NRD) and change in heart rate variability (HRV) in patients submitted to open-heart surgery. An observational cross-sectional study was conducted among 32 participants. NRD was assessed via a surface electromyogram of the parasternal intercostal muscle (sEMGpara). Polar heart rate monitor was used to measure HRV during the deep breathing maneuver. Evaluations were performed on the day of admission and discharge. There were statistically significant differences in NRD and HRV indices between admission and discharge periods (P<0.05). The difference in peak root mean square of sEMGpara recorded during resting (ΔRMS sEMGpara tidal), during maximal inspiratory maneuver (ΔsEMGpara max), and its normalized values (ΔRMS sEMGpara%max) were significantly correlated with the difference in total power (ΔTotal power), mean of heart rate (ΔMeanHR), and mean of R to R intervals (ΔMeanRR) (r=−0.844, P=0.004, r=−0.835, P=0.005, and r=0.643, P=0.043, respectively). It can be concluded that NRD correlated well with HRV in patients who had undergone open-heart surgery.
