Preoperative risk factors associated with left ventricular dysfunction after bariatric surgery.

ABSTRACT: A large proportion of patients with severe obesity remain with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction after bariatric surgery. We assessed whether preoperative evaluation by echocardiography and inflammatory proteins can identify this high-risk group. In the Bariatric Surgery on the West Coast of Norway study, 75 patients (44 ± 10 years, body mass index [BMI] 41.5 ± 4.7 kg/m²) were prospectively evaluated by echocardiography and inflammatory proteins (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein [hsCRP], serum amyloid A [SAA] and calprotectin) before and one year after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. LV mechanics was assessed by the midwall shortening (MWS) and global longitudinal strain (GLS). Bariatric surgery improved BMI and GLS, and lowered hsCRP, calprotectin and SAA (p < 0.05). MWS remained unchanged and 35% of patients had impaired MWS at 1-year follow-up. A preoperative risk index including sex, hypertension, ejection fraction (EF) and high hsCRP (index 1) or SAA (index 2) predicted low 1-year MWS with 81% sensitivity/71% specificity (index 1), and 77% sensitivity/77% specificity (index 2) in ROC analyses (AUC 0.80 and 0.79, p < 0.001). Among individuals with severe obesity, women and patients with hypertension, increased serum levels of inflammatory proteins and reduced EF are at high risk of impaired LV midwall mechanics 1 year after bariatric surgery.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01533142 February 15, 2012.

Project description:BackgroundTo analyze the risk factors of chronic left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) after cardiac valve surgery.MethodsA retrospective analysis of 860 patients who underwent heart valve surgery in our center from January 2017 to December 2018, including 650 males and 210 females, aged 58±5.8 years. Inclusion criteria: (I) the patient was clinically diagnosed with heart valve disease and met the surgical indications for mitral valve replacement (MVR), mitral valve repair (MVP), aortic valve replacement (AVR) and double valve replacement (DVR); (II) if atrial fibrillation, coronary artery disease, and tricuspid regurgitation are combined before surgery, radiofrequency ablation, coronary bypass and tricuspid angioplasty were performed contemporarily. Exclusion criteria: (I) preoperative LVEF <50%; (II) aortic dissection underwent Bentall and right heart valve replacement procedures; (III) cardiopulmonary resuscitation and death during perioperative period and 6 months after operation; (IV) postoperative CRRT, IABP, or ECMO assistance; (V) postoperative cardiac dysfunction due to valvular dysfunction, perivalvular leak, or infective endocarditis. Patients were divided into LVD group (LVEF <40%) and control group (LVEF ≥40%) based on cardiac LVEF at 6 months after surgery. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of postoperative LVD.ResultsThere were 126 cases in LVD group and 734 cases in control group. There were significant differences in preoperative coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, NYHA classification, left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD) between the two groups (P<0.05). The differences in the changes of LVEDD and LVESD before and after operation between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative LVEDD >55 mm, preoperative LVESD >40 mm, preoperative combined atrial fibrillation, preoperative combined pulmonary hypertension, preoperative NYHA III-IV, and preoperative combined coronary artery disease were the risks of postoperative chronic LVD.ConclusionsThe left ventricular diameter, preoperative coronary artery disease, NYHA III-IV, preoperative atrial fibrillation, and preoperative pulmonary hypertension are risk factors for chronic LVD after heart valve surgery.

Project description:BackgroundLeft ventricular assist device (LVAD)-associated infections are major complications that can lead to critical outcomes. The aims of this study were to assess the incidence of and to determine the risk factors for LVAD-associated infections.MethodsWe included all consecutive patients undergoing LVAD implantation between January 1, 2010, and January 1, 2019, in a single institution. Infection-related data were retrospectively collected by review of patient's medical files. LVAD-associated infections were classified into three categories: percutaneous driveline infections, pocket infections and pump and/or cannula infections.ResultsWe enrolled 72 patients. Twenty-one (29.2%) patients presented a total of 32 LVAD-associated infections. Eight (38.1%) patients had more than one infection. Five (62.5%) pocket infections and one (50.0%) pump and/or cannula infection were preceded by a driveline infection. The median delay between the operation and LVAD-associated infection was 6.5 (1.4-12.4) months. The probability of having a LVAD-associated infection at one year after receiving an implant was 26.6% (95% CI: 17.5-40.5%). Percutaneous driveline infections represented 68.7% of all LVAD-associated infections. Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci were the predominant bacteria in LVAD-associated infections (53.1% and 15.6%, respectively). Hospital length of stay (sdHR =1.22 per 10 days; P=0.001) and postoperative hemodialysis (sdHR =0.17; P=0.004) were statistically associated with infection. Colonization with multidrug-resistant bacteria was more frequent in patients with LVAD-associated infections than in others patients (42.9% vs. 15.7%; P=0.013).ConclusionsLVAD-associated infections remain an important complication and are mostly represented by percutaneous driveline infections. Gram-positive cocci are the main pathogens isolated in microbiological samples. Patients with LVAD-associated infections are more frequently colonized with multidrug-resistant bacteria.
