Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of early chest tube removal after anatomic pulmonary resection, regardless of the drainage volume. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled, noninferiority trial. Patients with greater than 300 mL drainage volume during postoperative day 1 were randomly assigned to group A (tube removed on postoperative day 2) and group B (tube retained until drainage volume ≤300 mL/24 hours). The primary end point was the frequency of respiratory-related adverse events (grade 2 or higher based on the Clavien-Dindo classification) within 30 days postoperatively. RESULTS Between April 2019 and October 2021, 175 patients were assigned to group A (N = 88) or group B (N = 87). One patient in group B who experienced chylothorax was excluded from the study. Respiratory-related adverse events were observed in 10 patients (11.4%) in group A and 12 patients (14.0%) in group B (P = .008). The frequencies of thoracentesis or chest tube reinsertion were not significantly different (8.0% and 9.3% in groups A and B, respectively, P = .752). Additionally, the duration of chest tube placement was significantly shorter in group A than in group B (median, 2 vs 3 days; P < .001). No significant difference between groups A and B was found in postoperative hospital stay (median, 6 vs 7 days, P = .231). CONCLUSIONS Early chest tube removal, regardless of drainage volume, was safe and feasible in patients who underwent anatomic pulmonary resection.

Safety of one 8.5-Fr pigtail catheter for postoperative continuous open gravity drainage after uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery pneumonectomy. J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:457. [PMID: 39026246 PMCID: PMC11256783 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02894-6] [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: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery pneumonectomy (U-VATS-P) is feasible and safe from a perioperative standpoint. How to choose the proper chest tube and drainage method is important in enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. In this study, we aimed to assess the safety of one 8.5-Fr (1Fr = 0.333 mm) pigtail catheter for postoperative continuous open gravity drainage after U-VATS-P. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a single surgeon's experience with U-VATS-P for lung cancer from May 2016 to September 2022. Patients were managed with one 8.5-Fr pigtail catheter for postoperative continuous open gravity drainage after U-VATS-P. The clinical characteristics and perioperative outcomes of the patients were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS In total, 77 patients had one 8.5-Fr pigtail catheter placed for postoperative continuous open gravity drainage after U-VATS-P for lung cancer. The mean age was 60.9±7.39 (40-76) years; The mean FEV1 was 2.1±0.6 (l/s), and the mean FEV1% was 71.2±22.7. The median operative time was 191.38±59.32 min; the mean operative hemorrhage was 109.46±96.56 ml; the mean duration of postoperative chest tube drainage was 6.80±2.33 days; the mean drainage volumes in the first three days after operation were 186.31±50.97, 321.97±52.03, and 216.44±35.67 ml, respectively; and the mean postoperative hospital stay was 7.90±2.58 days. No patient experienced complications resulting from chest tube malfunction. Ten patients experienced minor complications. One patient with nonlife-threatening empyema and bronchopleural fistula required short rehospitalization for anti-inflammatory therapy and reintubation. Three patients with chylothorax were treated with intravenous nutrition. Four patients had atrial fibrillation that was controlled by antiarrhythmic therapy. Two patients had more thoracic hemorrhagic exudation after the operation, which was found in time and was cured effectively, so they were discharged from the hospital uneventfully after early hemostatic therapy and nutritional support. CONCLUSIONS All patients in this study received early postoperative rehabilitation, and the rate of relevant complications was low. We therefore recommend a single 8.5-Fr pigtail catheter for postoperative continuous open gravity drainage as an effective, safe and reliable drainage method for the management of U-VATS-P.

Intentional wedge resection versus segmentectomy for ≤2 cm ground-glass-opacity-dominant non-small cell lung cancer: a real-world study using inverse probability of treatment weighting. Int J Surg 2024; 110:4231-4239. [PMID: 38518080 PMCID: PMC11254288 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000001361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether wedge resection is oncological suitable for ground glass opacity (GGO)-dominant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) ≤2 cm is still debatable. The aim of this study is to investigate the short-term and long-term outcomes of intentional wedge resection and segmentectomy for those patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a real-world study from one of the largest thoracic surgery centers in West China. Patients who underwent intentional wedge resection or segmentectomy for ≤2 cm CTR (consolidation-to-tumor) ≤0.5 NSCLC were consecutively included between December 2009 and December 2018. Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to balance baseline characteristics. Long-term outcomes, including overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and lung cancer-specific survival (LCSS), were analyzed using Cox proportional model. RESULTS A total of 1209 patients were included (497 in the wedge resection group, 712 in the segmentectomy group). Compared to segmentectomy, wedge resection had a significantly lower rate of complications (3.8 vs. 7.7%, P =0.008), a shorter operating time (65 min vs. 114 min, P <0.001), and a shorter postoperative stay (3 days vs. 4 days, P <0.001). The median follow-up was 70.1 months. The multivariate Cox model indicated that wedge resection had survival outcomes that were similar to segmentectomy in terms of 5-year OS (98.8 vs. 99.6%, HR=1.98, 95% CI: 0.59-6.68, P =0.270), 5-year RFS (98.8 vs. 99.5%, HR=1.88, 95% CI: 0.56-6.31, P =0.307) and 5-year LCSS (99.9 vs. 99.6%, HR=1.76, 95% CI: 0.24-13.15, P =0.581). CONCLUSION Intentional wedge resection is an appropriate choice for ≤2 cm GGO-dominant NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The criteria for chest drain removal after lung resections remain vague and rely on personal experience instead of evidence. Because pleural fluid resorption is proportional to body weight, a weight-related approach seems reasonable. We examined the feasibility of a weight-adjusted fluid output threshold concerning postoperative respiratory complications and the occurrence of symptomatic pleural effusion after chest drain removal. Our secondary objectives were the hospital length of stay and pain levels before and after chest drain removal. METHODS This was a single-center randomized controlled trial including 337 patients planned for open or thoracoscopic anatomical lung resections. Patients were randomly assigned postoperatively into 2 groups. The chest drain was removed in the study group according to a fluid output threshold calculated by the 5 mL × body weight (in kg)/24 hours formula. In the control group, our previous traditional fluid threshold of 200 mL/24 hours was applied. RESULTS No differences were evident regarding the occurrence of pleural effusion and dyspnea at discharge and 30 days postoperatively. In the logistic regression analysis, the surgical modality was a risk factor for other complications, and age was the only variable influencing postoperative dyspnea. Time to chest drain removal was identical in both groups, and time to discharge was shorter after open surgery in the test group. CONCLUSIONS No increased postoperative complications occurred with this weight-based formula, and a trend toward earlier discharge after open surgery was observed in the test group.

Abstract
The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Workforce on Evidence-Based Surgery provides this document on management of pleural drains after pulmonary lobectomy. The goal of this consensus document is to provide guidance regarding pleural drains in 5 specific areas: (1) choice of drain, including size, type, and number; (2) management, including use of suction vs water seal and criteria for removal; (3) imaging recommendations, including the use of daily and postpull chest roentgenograms; (4) use of digital drainage systems; and (5) management of prolonged air leak. To formulate the consensus statements, a task force of 15 general thoracic surgeons was invited to review the existing literature on this topic. Consensus was obtained using a modified Delphi method consisting of 2 rounds of voting until 75% agreement on the statements was reached. A total of 13 consensus statements are provided to encourage standardization and stimulate additional research in this important area.

Abstract
Chest tube management represents a major issue after lung surgery as no protocol is widely accepted and tube management is generally based on local or personal habits. Aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a standardized protocol for chest tube management after pulmonary resections on the post-operative outcomes. We performed a single center retrospective analysis of all adult patients undergoing thoracoscopic pulmonary resection from January 2020 to December 2021. Starting from January 2021 a standardized protocol of chest tube management was applied after all procedures. Patients were divided into two groups according to the chest tube management strategy. he two groups had similar pre-operative characteristics and the extent of lung resection was comparable. Intervention group had significantly shorter time to chest tube removal (median 1 vs 3 days, p < 0.001) and post-operative length of stay (median 3 vs 4 days, p < 0.001). Despite earlier chest tube removal, there was not an increased incidence of post-removal complications. On multivariable analysis, the new chest drain management strategy was an independent predictor of earlier chest tube removal. A standardized protocol of chest tube management allows for an earlier chest tube removal and a shorter hospital stay, without an increase in post-operative complications.

Abstract
This review documents the relationships between enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways, chest tube management and patient outcomes following lung resection surgery. ERAS pathways have been introduced to mitigate the harmful stress response that occurs following all major surgery, including lung resection. Improvements to the entire patient pathway, from the preoperative admission clinic through to discharge and beyond, can have additive or synergistic effects and result in improved patient outcomes, reduced length of stay and lower costs. At the same time, there are some key care elements that appear to be more important than others. In the postoperative period, early removal of chest tubes, early mobilization, and limited use of opioids are all independently important factors. These elements of care are all intertwined. Therefore, a focus on proactive chest tube management with the abandonment of conservative chest tube strategies should be a focus of postoperative ERAS pathways. This can be achieved with single tubes, no routine suction, the use of digital drainage systems, and removal of tubes even in the presence of relatively high serous pleural fluid outputs. The goals of early mobilization and opioid-sparing analgesia are more readily achieved once a chest tube has been removed. The result is superior patient outcomes with significantly fewer complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To create a prognostic model determining the risk of tension pneumothorax and the need for intraoperative installation of additional drainage after thoracoscopic lobectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective multiple-center study included patients who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer between 2016 and 2022. One drainage tube was used after surgery in all cases. We synthesized data to expand patient selection using the Riley method and machine learning algorithm. In total, treatment outcomes in 1458 patients were analyzed. After identifying significant factors, we performed binary logistic regression analysis using backward stepwise inclusion of variables in accordance with the Akaike information criterion. After validating the model using the Bootstrap method (400 iterations) and original data set, we created a nomogram determining scoring characteristics, linear predictors and risk of postoperative tension pneumothorax. RESULTS The incidence of tension pneumothorax was 4.53% (n=66). The most significant variables associated with pneumothorax and the need for additional pleural drainage were adhesions, intraoperative lung suturing, unclear interlobar groove, enlarged intrapulmonary lymph nodes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (p<0.001). The model's C-index was 0.957, mean absolute calibration error - 0.6%, calibration curve slope - 0.959. A score of 26 indicated a 95% risk of postoperative pneumothorax. CONCLUSION We developed a prognostic model for tension pneumothorax after thoracoscopic lobectomy. Nomogram makes it possible to make a decision on intraoperative installation of additional pleural drainage tube and prevent complications associated with postoperative lung collapse.

Abstract
Lobectomies have long been the gold standard for surgical treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with segmentectomies limited to instances of benign disease or as an alternative in patients where lung preservation is indicated. However, a recently published randomized control trial has demonstrated the superiority of segmentectomy over lobectomy in terms of overall survival for early-stage lung cancer. Segmentectomy could thus be considered a standard procedure for small-sized peripheral NSCLC. While segmentectomy via video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is the most widespread approach, development in video instrumentation and thoracic robotic surgery is rapidly gaining interest. Indeed, robotic surgery pioneers boast the advantages in three-dimensional view, improved magnification, ergonomics, dexterity, safety, and ease of surgery with this technology. This review aims to outline robotic-assisted segmentectomy indications, preoperative evaluation, and the operative conduct for the different lung segments from a single surgeon console. There are many ways to perform segmentectomies and therefore this review describes generalized approaches that can be tailored based on experience.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The lack of chest tube maintenance and management knowledge in nurses can lead to serious adverse consequences. The purpose of this study was to develop a chest tube maintenance and management knowledge questionnaire for clinical nurses, and to verify its reliability and validity. METHODS Based on literature review and expert consultation, a questionnaire on chest tube maintenance and management knowledge of clinical nurses was designed, and the reliability and validity of the questionnaire were tested in 60 clinical nurses. RESULTS The initial questionnaire of chest tube maintenance and management knowledge for clinical nurses included 20 items, and three dimensions were finally determined by expert consultation method, including 15 items. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.850, and the Cronbach's α coefficient of each dimension ranged from 0.704 to 0.743. Spearman-brown's split reliability was 0.756. The content validity (content validity index [CVI]) of each item of the questionnaire ranged from 0.833 to 1.000, and the total CVI was 0.978. CONCLUSIONS The clinical nurses' knowledge questionnaire developed in this study has good reliability and validity, which can effectively and objectively evaluate clinical nurses' mastery of chest tube maintenance and management knowledge.

Chest Drainage Therapy: What Comes out of Pandora's Box Can Affect Patient Outcomes. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11185311.

Abstract
Background: Over the last 100 years, the original three-bottle chest drainage system has been variously engineered into compact disposables and electronic units. Clinicians are now surrounded by a plethora of different types of systems, but little is known about the way that they work and perform. Thus, we sought to test the performance of the most commonly used chest drainage units under conditions that are relevant to clinical practice. Methods: A pleural space environment simulator was built. Thirty-two units were tested under four clinical scenarios: air leak interpretation during quiet breathing and after obstructed inspiration (−5 to −150 cmH2O), a buildup of negative pressure (−100 cmH2O), a bronchopleural fistula (10 L/min) and the need for effective external suction in the presence of air leakage. Twenty-five units were “traditional” thoracic drainages, five were “digital” low-flow/low-vacuum pumps and two were hybrids (a combination of the two). According to the design of the seal and of the suction control, the units were classified as wet-wet, wet-dry and dry-dry. Results: All wet units showed reverse air flow, with the potential to mimic an air leak when there was none. Ten wet units showed no automatic negative pressure relief features, while five dry-dry did but were slow to react. Ten wet and five dry-dry units showed no capability to handle a 10 L/min leak, as they were restrictive to flow (peak pressure up to 55 cmH2O). Only seven dry-suction units were able to maintain the set suction at high airflow rates (>20 L/min). Conclusions: Different chest drainage unit designs lead to different performances, some of which may negatively impact patient outcomes. This sounds the call to tailor our clinical practice for the individual patient. A paradigm shift to better understand all components of pleural physiology post-surgical intervention on this relatively neglected topic is needed to improve our daily practice.

Abstract
The introduction of video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) techniques has led to a new approach in thoracic surgery. VATS is performed by inserting a thoracoscope through a small incisions in the chest wall, thus maximizing the preservation of muscle and tissue. Because of its low rate of morbidity and mortality, VATS is currently the technique of choice in most thoracic procedures. Lung resection by VATS reduces prolonged air leaks, arrhythmia, pneumonia, postoperative pain and inflammatory markers. This reduction in postoperative complications shortens hospital length of stay, and is particularly beneficial in high-risk patients with low tolerance to thoracotomy. Compared with conventional thoracotomy, the oncological results of VATS surgery are similar or even superior to those of open surgery. This aim of this multidisciplinary position statement produced by the thoracic surgery working group of the Spanish Society of Anesthesiology and Reanimation (SEDAR), the Spanish Society of Thoracic Surgery (SECT), and the Spanish Association of Physiotherapy (AEF) is to standardize and disseminate a series of perioperative anaesthesia management guidelines for patients undergoing VATS lung resection surgery. Each recommendation is based on an in-depth review of the available literature by the authors. In this document, the care of patients undergoing VATS surgery is organized in sections, starting with the surgical approach, and followed by the three pillars of anaesthesia management: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative anaesthesia.

Abstract
In recent years, multidisciplinary programs have been implemented that include different actions during the pre, intra and postoperative period, aimed at reducing perioperative stress and therefore improving the results of patients undergoing surgical interventions. Initially, these programs were developed for colorectal surgery and from there they have been extended to other surgeries. Thoracic surgery, considered highly complex, like other surgeries with a high postoperative morbidity and mortality rate, may be one of the specialties that most benefit from the implementation of these programs. This review presents the recommendations made by different specialties involved in the perioperative care of patients who require resection of a lung tumor. Meta-analyzes, systematic reviews, randomized and non-randomized controlled studies, and retrospective studies conducted in patients undergoing this type of intervention have been taken into account in preparing the recommendations presented in this guide. The GRADE scale has been used to classify the recommendations, assessing on the one hand the level of evidence published on each specific aspect and, on the other hand, the strength of the recommendation with which the authors propose its application. The recommendations considered most important for this type of surgery are those that refer to pre-habilitation, minimization of surgical aggression, excellence in the management of perioperative pain and postoperative care aimed at providing rapid postoperative rehabilitation.

Abstract
Background Chest drain suction of −20 cm H2O has been used universally after lung resection. After introducing new guidelines,−8 cm H2O was used routinely for all non‐pneumonectomy, thoracoscopic lung resections. We conducted a review to determine outcomes and safety. Methods After introduction of the guidelines data were collected in the study institutions' thoracic surgical database and subsequently analysed. Results A total of 155 patients underwent thoracoscopic lung resection. Mean patient age was 61.5 ± 13.6 years. Video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery was performed in 92.2% (144/155) of patients and robotically‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery was performed in 7.8% (12/155) of patients. Lobectomy was performed in 56.8% (88/155) of patients, segmentectomy was performed in 11.6% (18/155) of patients and wedge resection was performed in 31.6% (49/155) of patients. Median ICC duration time was 1 day (IQR 1–3). Median length of stay was 3 days (IQR 2–6). For patients undergoing lobectomy median ICC time was 2 days (IQR 1–4.5) and median length of stay was 3.5 days (IQR 2–7), for segmentectomy median ICC time was 1 day (IQR 1–5) and median length of stay was 2 days (IQR 1–5) and for wedge resection median ICC time was 1 day (IQR 1–1) and median admission time was 2 days (IQR 1–4). Conclusion A suction level −8 cm H2O is safe to use for thoracoscopic lung resections from day 0 post‐operatively. A dedicated, prospective study comparing levels of suction should be performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunoneoadjuvant therapy opens a new prospect for local advanced lung cancer. The aim of our study was to explore the safety and feasibility of robotic-assisted bronchial sleeve resection in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy. METHODS Data of 13 patients with locally advanced NSCLC that underwent bronchial sleeve resection after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy during August 2020 and February 2021 were retrospectively included. According to the surgical methods, patients were divided into thoracotomy bronchial sleeve resection (TBSR) group and robot-assisted bronchial sleeve resection (RABSR) group. Oncology, intraoperative, and postoperative data in the two groups were compared. RESULTS The two groups of patients operated smoothly, the postoperative pathology confirmed that all the tumor lesions achieved R0 resection, and RABSR group no patient was transferred to thoracotomy during surgery. Partial remission (PR) rate and major pathological remissions (MPR) rate of patients in the TBSR group were 71.43% and 42.86%, respectively. Complete pathological response (pCR) was 28.57%. They were 66.67%, 50.00% and 33.33% in RABSR group, respectively. There were no significant differences in operative duration, number of lymph nodes dissected, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups, but the bronchial anastomosis time of RABSR group was relatively short. Both groups of patients had a good prognosis. Successfully discharged from the hospital and post-operative 90-d mortality rate was 0. CONCLUSIONS In patients with locally advanced central NSCLC after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy can achieve the tumor reduction, tumor stage decline and increase the R0 resection rate, bronchial sleeve resection is safe and feasible. Under the premise of following the two principles of surgical safety and realizing the tumor R0 resection, robot-assisted bronchial sleeve resection can be preferred.

Abstract
RATIONALE Prolonged air leak (PAL) after partial lung resection can occur due to surgical complications or in the presence of residual thoracic space. The former type results in drainage-independent air leak (DIPAL), whereas later type results in drainage-dependent air leak (DDPAL). Drainage-dependent air leak is described after thoracentesis in patients with non-expandable lung, where the thoracostomy tube can be discontinued safely despite an ongoing air leak. This distinction is clinically relevant, as in the presence of DDPAL, tube thoracostomy can be safely discontinued without the need of further interventions. OBJECTIVES To determine the frequency and clinical relevance of DDAPL and DIPAL in patients with PAL after partial lung resection. METHODS We prospectively identified consecutive patients with PAL after partial lung resection. Pleural manometry was performed 3-5 days after surgery. Pleural pressure was measured for 20 minutes after clamping the thoracostomy tube. Drainage-dependent PAL was diagnosed if the end-expiratory pleural pressure remained stable after plateauing in the absence of respiratory symptoms. RESULTS Of 225 patients underwent lung resection, we identified 22 (10%) who had a PAL (9.8%). Twenty patients had adequate pleural manometry readings. The majority, 16/20 (80%), had a DDPAL and had lower median hospital length of stay than those with a DIPAL (6.9 vs. 11 days, p=0.02). All patients with DIPAL required re-exploration surgery, whereas only one patient with DDPAL underwent re-exploration surgery . CONCLUSIONS Most PALs after partial lung resection are DDPAL. Patients with DDPAL have lower hospital length of stay and less need for re-exploration surgery, than those with DIPAL.

Variation in incidence, prevention and treatment of persistent air leak after lung cancer surgery. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2021; 61:110-117. [PMID: 34410339 PMCID: PMC8715850 DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezab376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2021] [Revised: 06/15/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Persistent air leak (PAL; >5 days after surgery) is the most common complication after pulmonary resection and associated with prolonged hospital stay and increased morbidity. Literature is contradictory about the prevention and treatment of PAL. Variation is therefore hypothesized. The aim of this study is to understand the variation in the incidence, preventive management and treatment of PAL. METHODS Data from the Dutch Lung Cancer Audit for Surgery were combined with results of an online survey among Dutch thoracic surgeons. The national incidence of PAL and case-mix corrected between-hospital variation were calculated in patients who underwent an oncological (bi)lobectomy or segmentectomy between January 2012 and December 2018. By multivariable logistic regression, factors associated with PAL were assessed. A survey was designed to assess variation in (preventive) management and analysed using descriptive statistics. Hospital-level associations between management strategies and PAL were assessed by univariable linear regression. RESULTS Of 12 382 included patients, 9.0% had PAL, with a between-hospital range of 2.6–19.3%. Factors associated with PAL were male sex, poor lung function, low body mass index, high American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, pulmonary comorbidity, upper lobe resection, (bi)lobectomy (vs segmentectomy), right-sided tumour and robotic-assisted thoracic surgery. Perioperative (preventive) management of PAL differed widely between hospitals. When using water seal compared to suction drainage, the average incidence of PAL decreased 2.9%. CONCLUSIONS In the Netherlands, incidence and perioperative (preventive) management of PAL vary widely. Using water seal instead of suction drainage and increasing awareness are potential measures to reduce this variation.

Abstract
The introduction of video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) techniques has led to a new approach in thoracic surgery. VATS is performed by inserting a thoracoscope through a small incisions in the chest wall, thus maximizing the preservation of muscle and tissue. Because of its low rate of morbidity and mortality, VATS is currently the technique of choice in most thoracic procedures. Lung resection by VATS reduces prolonged air leaks, arrhythmia, pneumonia, postoperative pain and inflammatory markers. This reduction in postoperative complications shortens hospital length of stay, and is particularly beneficial in high-risk patients with low tolerance to thoracotomy. Compared with conventional thoracotomy, the oncological results of VATS surgery are similar or even superior to those of open surgery. This aim of this multidisciplinary position statement produced by the thoracic surgery working group of the Spanish Society of Anesthesiology and Reanimation (SEDAR), the Spanish Society of Thoracic Surgery (SECT), and the Spanish Association of Physiotherapy (AEF) is to standardize and disseminate a series of perioperative anaesthesia management guidelines for patients undergoing VATS lung resection surgery. Each recommendation is based on an in-depth review of the available literature by the authors. In this document, the care of patients undergoing VATS surgery is organized in sections, starting with the surgical approach, and followed by the three pillars of anaesthesia management: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative anaesthesia.

Abstract
In recent years, multidisciplinary programs have been implemented that include different actions during the pre, intra and postoperative period, aimed at reducing perioperative stress and therefore improving the results of patients undergoing surgical interventions. Initially, these programs were developed for colorectal surgery and from there they have been extended to other surgeries. Thoracic surgery, considered highly complex, like other surgeries with a high postoperative morbidity and mortality rate, may be one of the specialties that most benefit from the implementation of these programs. This review presents the recommendations made by different specialties involved in the perioperative care of patients who require resection of a lung tumor. Meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomized and non-randomized controlled studies, and retrospective studies conducted in patients undergoing this type of intervention have been taken into account in preparing the recommendations presented in this guide. The GRADE scale has been used to classify the recommendations, assessing on the one hand the level of evidence published on each specific aspect and, on the other hand, the strength of the recommendation with which the authors propose its application. The recommendations considered most important for this type of surgery are those that refer to pre-habilitation, minimization of surgical aggression, excellence in the management of perioperative pain and postoperative care aimed at providing rapid postoperative rehabilitation.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effect of a new negative-pressure drainage system in thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery; thereby, providing a new option for postoperative drainage. Methods We retrospectively analyzed data for 200 patients who underwent thoracoscopic surgery between May 2018 and October 2019. According to the thoracic drainage method, the patients were divided into the thoracic tube group and the new system group. The epidemiological and clinicopathological data were compared before operation, and the clinical effect of thoracic drainage was compared after operation. Results There was no significant difference in epidemiological and clinicopathological data between the two groups. There was also no significant difference in drain removal time, hospital stay, and complication rates between the two groups. However, the incidences of pleural effusion and poor incision healing in the new system group were lower than in the thoracic tube group. Visual analog scale (VAS) scores in the new system group were lower than those in the thoracic tube group at each postoperative interval; therefore, the new system group required less analgesia. Conclusion The new system was not inferior to thoracic tubes regarding the drainage effect after thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery. Hence, the system is an alternative to traditional thoracic tubes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After general thoracic surgery, a chest tube is usually placed for closed drainage to expel gas accumulation in the thoracic cavity and fluid accumulation to promote lung re-expansion. It can also be observed whether there is active bleeding after the operation and whether there is a pulmonary leak. The conventional drainage of the chest cavity is connected with a water-sealed drainage bottle, and the patient condition is judged by observing the drainage situation and the fluctuation of the water column, which is a very classic method. However, the water-sealed bottle has the disadvantages of being easy to overturn and inconvenient to carry, which is not conducive to the early activities of patients. Under the concept of accelerated rehabilitation, our center applied a new type of anhydrous thorax negative pressure drainage device and achieved good results. The purpose of this study was to observe the effect of a new type of anhydrous thoracic negative pressure drainage device in patients after thoracic surgery. METHODS Retrospective analysis of patients who underwent lung surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical College from January 2018 to December 2019, patients were divided into two groups. One group of patients used a traditional closed-chest drainage water-sealed bottle as a control group, and the other group used a new type of anhydrous negative-pressure drainage bottle as an experimental group. Patients' gender, age, hypertension, diabetes, smoking history, surgical incisions and surgical methods, and the length of hospital stay and postoperative hospital stay were calculated. RESULTS There were no statistical differences in age, gender, comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes, smoking history), scope of surgery, and duration of surgery between the two groups of patients, but there were statistical differences in surgical incisions between the two groups of patients (P=0.01). We found that patients using the new waterless negative pressure drainage device were shorter than patients with water negative pressure drainage device in terms of postoperative hospital stay and total hospitalization time, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.02, P=0.04). CONCLUSIONS The new type of anhydrous thoracic negative pressure drainage device has a good effect on the rapid recovery and advancement after thoracic surgery.

Abstract
Background We sometimes experience postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) at the chest tube drainage site (CDS) after thoracotomy. The incidence of and risk factors for SSI at the CDS have remained unclear. Methods We conducted a prospective study to determine the incidence and risk factors for SSI at the CDS. We analyzed 99 patients who underwent lobectomy or segmentectomy for pulmonary malignant lesions. Results There were 56 males and 43 females with an average age of 71 years. The postoperative drainage period was 2–15 days. Bacterial species were detected in secretions in 18 of 99 cases (18.2%). Older age was a risk factor for the detection of bacteria at the timing of chest tube removal. Eighteen cases (18.2%) were diagnosed with presence of SSI at the CDS at the timing of staple or suture removal. A pathological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma was regarded as a candidate risk factor for SSI. Eleven of 18 SSI patients showed delayed wound healing. A higher level of HbA1c was found in patients with delayed wound healing. Enterococcus faecalis infection may influence the development of complex SSI. Conclusions We identified the bacterial profiles, incidence of and risk factors for SSI at the CDS. More intense preoperative glycemic control and an understanding of the bacterial profile and may be useful for reducing the incidence of SSI chest tube drainage sites (CDS).

Risk factors and outcomes of prolonged air leak after pulmonary resections. Indian J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2019; 35:564-568.

Abstract
Purpose Prolonged air leak (PAL) is a challenging complication in thoracic surgery. The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of PAL. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 319 patients treated in a single center submitted to lobectomy, bilobectomy, segmentectomy, and wedge resections from January 2012 until August 2015. PAL was defined as air leak lasting more than 7 days after surgery. Results The incidence of PAL was 14.7%. Bronchial obstruction (p < 0.05), low body mass index (BMI, p < 0.05), and hypoproteinemia (p < 0.001) were identified as independent preoperative risk factors of PAL. Intraoperative risk factors were lob- (p < 0.01) and bilobectomies (p < 0.05), pleural adhesions (p < 0.001), and length of stapler line (p < 0.001). Among the postoperative risk factors, we identified the use of active drainage (p < 0.01), the presence of subcutaneous emphysema (p < 0.001), massive air leak on the first postoperative day (POD 1, p < 0.001), and an incomplete re-expansion of the lung (p < 0.001). PAL was not associated with more complications in the postoperative period. One patient required reoperation due to a massive air leak. Twenty-six patients were discharged with a Heimlich valve with no complications and no need for re-admission. Conclusions Bronchial obstruction, low BMI, hypoproteinemia, lob- and bilobectomies, pleural adhesions, length of stapler line, use of active drainage, the presence of subcutaneous emphysema, massive air leak on POD 1, and incomplete re-expansion of the lung were identified as independent risk factors of PAL. It had no influence on outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Guidelines for enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) have recently been published for lung surgery. Although some of the recommendations are generic or focused on anesthetic and nursing care, other recommendations are more specific to a thoracic surgeon's practice. The present review concentrates on the surgical approach, optimal chest drain management, and the importance of early mobilization. RECENT FINDINGS Most lung cancer resections are still performed via an open thoracotomy approach. If a thoracotomy is to be used, a muscle-sparing approach may result in reduced pain and better postoperative function. Sparing of the intercostal bundle also reduces pain. There is now evidence that minimally invasive surgery for early lung cancer results in superior patient outcomes. Postoperatively, single chest tubes should be used without the routine application of external suction. Digital drainage systems are more reliable and may produce superior outcomes. Conservative chest drain removal policies are unnecessary and impair patient recovery. Early mobilization protocols should be instigated to reduce postoperative complications. SUMMARY The use of ERAS after lung surgery has the potential to improve patient outcomes. Although specific surgical elements are in the minority, thoracic surgeons should be involved in all aspects of perioperative care as part of the wider multidisciplinary team.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety of early chest tube removal after thoracic esophagectomy with three-field dissection. METHODS This prospective cohort study evaluated patients who underwent thoracic esophagectomy with three-field dissection during 2013-2015. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether they underwent early or late chest tube removal. Propensity score matching in a 1:1 ratio was applied. We compared the incidences of postoperative pulmonary complications and thoracocentesis in the two groups. RESULTS After propensity score matching, 89 patients in each group were analyzed. There was no significant difference between the groups in the incidences of pulmonary complications or thoracocentesis. Significantly more patients achieved first mobilization within 15 h postoperatively in the early removal group (89.8%) than in the late removal group (52%, p < 0.01). Multivariate analysis revealed that early chest tube removal was not a risk factor for pulmonary complications or thoracocentesis. Independent risk factors for pulmonary complications were a history of pulmonary disease (odds ratio: 0.81 [0.63-0.98]; p = 0.02) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (odds ratio: 0.67 [0.32-0.96]; p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Early chest tube removal is as safe and feasible as late chest tube removal after thoracic esophagectomy with three-field dissection.
