J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1337-1346. [PMID: 38521631 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2024.02.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The effect of preoperative malnutrition and sarcopenia on outcomes in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) after open surgical repair (OSR) and endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm repair is undefined. The authors conducted the study to address this issue in this population. DESIGN A retrospective observational study. SETTING A large tertiary hospital. PARTICIPANTS Patients with AAA who underwent OSR and endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR). INTERVENTIONS Evaluation of nutritional status (Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 [NRS 2002] and the Controlling Nutritional Status [CONUT] scores), muscle size (skeletal muscle index), and postoperative parameters. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 199 patients were reviewed from January 2020 to December 2022. Patients weew categorized into group A (CONUT <4) and group B (CONUT ≥4) based on whether their CONUT scores were less than 4. The mortality (p = 0.004) and the incidence of Clavien-Dindo class III complications (p = 0.007) in group B were higher than those in group A. CONUT score was an independent risk factor for midterm mortality (hazard ratio 1.329; 95% CI, 1.104-1.697; p = 0.002) and Clavien-Dindo class III complications (odds ratio 1.225; 95% CI, 1.012-1.482; p = 0.037) according to univariate and multivariate analyses, whereas NRS 2002 score and sarcopenia were not. Kaplan-Meier curves showed a lower midterm survival rate in group B (log-rank p < 0.001). CONCLUSION In patients with AAA undergoing OSR or EVAR, a CONUT score ≥4 was associated with increased Clavien-Dindo class III complications and mortality. Preoperative nutritional status should be evaluated and optimized in this high-risk population.

Huang Z, Wang H, Da Y, Liu S, Zheng W, Li F. Do nutritional assessment tools (PNI, CONUT, GNRI) predict adverse events after spinal surgeries? A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Orthop Surg Res 2024; 19:289. [PMID: 38735935 PMCID: PMC11089772 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-024-04771-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional assessment tools are used to predict outcomes in cancer. However, their utility in patients undergoing spinal surgery is unclear. This review examined if prognostic nutritional index (PNI), controlling nutritional status (CONUT), and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) can predict adverse events after spinal surgeries. METHODS PubMed, CENTRAL, Scopus, and Embase were screened by two reviewers for relevant studies up to 26th January 2024. The primary outcome of interest was total adverse events after spinal surgery. Secondary outcomes were surgical site infections (SSI) and mortality. RESULTS 14 studies were included. Meta-analysis showed that while reduced PNI was not associated with an increased risk of SSI there was a significant association between PNI and higher risk of adverse events. Meta-analysis showed that high CONUT was not associated with an increased risk of complications after spinal surgeries. Pooled analysis showed that low GNRI was associated with an increased risk of both SSI and adverse events. Data on mortality was scarce. CONCLUSIONS The PNI and GNRI can predict adverse outcomes after spinal surgeries. Limited data shows that high CONUT is also associated with a non-significant increased risk of adverse outcomes. High GNRI was predictive of an increased risk of SSI. Data on mortality is too scarce for strong conclusions.

Predictive Role of Preoperative Nutritional Status on Early Postoperative Outcomes in Different-Aged Patients Undergoing Heart Valve Surgery. J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1169-1180. [PMID: 38423886 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2024.01.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 01/07/2024] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The authors sought to elucidate the role and predictive effects of preoperative nutritional status on postoperative outcomes across different age groups undergoing heart valve surgery. DESIGN A retrospective study with intergroup comparison, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, and logistic regression analysis. SETTING A hospital affiliated with a medical university. PARTICIPANTS Three thousand nine hundred five patients undergoing heart valve surgery between October 2016 and December 2020. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Patients were categorized into 3 age subgroups: young (aged 18-44 years), middle-aged (aged 45-59 years), and older (aged ≥60 years) adults. The Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), Prognostic Nutritional Index, and Controlling Nutritional Status scores were evaluated. Young adults with an NRI <99 experienced a significantly higher rate of prolonged intensive care unit stay (28.3% v 4.1%, p < 0.001), with a relative risk of 4.58 (95% CI: 2.04-10.27). Similarly, young adults with an NRI <97 had a significantly increased occurrence of mortality within 30 days after surgery (6.3% v 0.2%, p < 0.001), with a relative risk of 41.11 (95% CI: 3.19-529.48). CONCLUSIONS In patients who undergo heart valve surgery, early postoperative outcomes can be influenced by nutritional status before the surgery. In the young-adult group, NRI <99 and NRI <97 effectively could predict prolonged intensive care unit stay and 30-day mortality, respectively.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study. OBJECTIVE To compare the mini nutritional assessment-short form (MNA-SF), geriatric nutritional risk index, prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and preoperative serum albumin level as predictors of postoperative adverse events (AEs) in degenerative spine deformity (DSD) patients. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Although various nutritional screening tools have been well evaluated in patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery, the most suitable tool for the DSD population remains uncertain at present. PATIENTS AND METHODS The authors reviewed consecutive patients who underwent thoracolumbar fusion surgery for DSD between August 2016 and May 2023. Four screening tools were used to assess preoperative nutritional status. Patients were divided into two categories according to each screening tool, and the four screening tools were compared regarding their predictive power for postoperative AEs, including the rates of extended length of hospital stays (LOS), complications, and readmission within three months. Physical functional indicators such as time to first ambulation, nonhome discharge, and postoperative LOS were assessed as secondary outcome measures. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with postoperative AEs. RESULTS A total of 228 patients were included. The demographic characteristics, underlying disease, and magnitude of correction were not significantly different between well-nourished and malnourished groups. The nutritional risks shown by MNA-SF and albumin level were significantly associated with infectious complications ( P <0.05). The nutritional risk shown by MNA-SF was significantly associated with nonhome discharge, prolonged postoperative LOS (12.5±8.2 vs. 10.3±6.1, P =0.039), and delayed ambulation (3.7±2.1 vs. 2.2±1.8, P =0.001). Multivariable logistic regression revealed that PNI <50 was significantly associated with total AEs and minor AEs after DSD surgery. CONCLUSIONS PNI was significantly associated with the incidence of total AEs and minor AEs, while preoperative albumin level and MNA-SF were more effective in predicting postoperative infectious complications and delayed recovery of physical function, respectively. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III.

Abstract
Background This study investigates the association between the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), a simple, readily available malnutrition risk index, and 30-day postoperative complications following shoulder arthroscopy. Methods The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was used to identify all patients aged ≥65 years who underwent shoulder arthroscopy between 2015 and 2021. The study population was indexed into 3 cohorts of preoperative GNRI: normal/reference (GNRI >98), moderate malnutrition (92≤ GNRI ≤98), and severe malnutrition (GNRI <92). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the connection between preoperative GNRI and postoperative complications. Results Severe malnutrition was independently significantly associated with a greater likelihood of any complication (odds ratio [OR]: 11.70, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 8.58-15.94; P < .001), sepsis (OR: 26.61, 95% CI: 10.86-65.21; P < .001), septic shock (OR: 7.53, 95% CI: 1.56-36.32; P = .012), blood transfusions (OR: 25.38, 95% CI: 6.40-100.59; P < .001), pulmonary embolism (OR: 7.25, 95% CI: 1.27-41.40; P = .026), surgical site infection (OR: 22.08, 95% CI: 7.51-64.97; P < .001), nonhome discharge (OR: 15.75, 95% CI: 9.83-25.23; P < .001), readmission (OR: 2.69, 95% CI: 1.52-4.74; P < .001), unplanned reoperation (OR: 6.32, 95% CI: 2.23-17.92; P < .001), length of stay >2 days (OR: 23.66, 95% CI: 16.25-34.45; P < .001), and mortality (OR: 14.25, 95% CI: 2.89-70.40; P = .001). Conclusion GNRI-based malnutrition is strongly predictive of perioperative complications following shoulder arthroscopy in geriatric patients and has utility as an adjunctive risk stratification tool.

Abstract
Background This study investigates the association between the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), a simple readily available measure of malnutrition risk, and 30-day postoperative complications following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Methods The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for all patients who underwent TSA between 2015 and 2021. The study population was divided into 3 groups based on preoperative GNRI: normal/reference (GNRI > 98), moderate malnutrition (92 ≤ GNRI ≤ 98), and severe malnutrition (GNRI < 92). Logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the connection between preoperative GNRI and postoperative complications. Results Compared to normal nutrition, moderate malnutrition was independently significantly associated with a greater likelihood of any complications (odds ratio [OR]: 1.74, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.54-1.96; P < .001), blood transfusions (OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.09-2.11; P = .013), failure to wean off a ventilator within 48 hours (OR: 3.84, 95% CI: 1.26-11.72; P = .018), wound dehiscence (OR: 15.80, 95% CI: 1.61-155.28; P = .018), nonhome discharge (OR: 1.90, 95% CI: 1.63-2.22; P < .001), readmission (OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.19-1.99; P = .001), unplanned reoperation (OR: 1.87, 95% CI: 1.27-2.74; P = .001), length of stay > 2 days (OR: 1.85, 95% CI: 1.63-2.12; P < .001), and mortality (OR: 3.38, 95% CI: 1.32-8.71; P = .011). Severe malnutrition was independently significantly associated with a greater likelihood of any complication (OR: 3.33, 95% CI: 2.80-3.97; P < .001), sepsis (OR: 9.83, 95% CI: 2.94-32.85; P < .001), pneumonia (OR: 3.30, 95% CI: 1.71-6.38; P < .001), unplanned reintubation (OR: 5.77, 95% CI: 2.47-13.51; P < .001), urinary tract infection (OR: 2.15, 95% CI: 1.19-3.87; P = .011), stroke (OR: 3.57, 95% CI: 1.18-10.84; P = .024), blood transfusions (OR: 5.27, 95% CI: 3.86-7.20; P < .001), failure to wean off a ventilator within 48 hours (OR: 7.64, 95% CI: 2.29-25.55; P < .001), Clostridioides difficile infection (OR: 4.17, 95% CI: 1.21-14.32; P = .023), nonhome discharge (OR: 3.56, 95% CI: 2.92-4.34; P < .001), readmission (OR: 2.05, 95% CI: 1.46-2.89; P < .001), length of stay > 2 days (OR: 3.27, 95% CI: 2.73-3.92; P < .001), and mortality (OR: 4.61, 95% CI: 1.51-14.04; P = .007). Conclusion Malnutrition based on GNRI is a strong predictor of complications following TSA, with increasing severity related to an increased rate of complications.
