Risk factors for pulmonary complications after hepatic resection: role of intraoperative hemodynamic instability and hepatic ischemia.

ABSTRACT: Postoperative operative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after hepatic surgery are associated with increased length of hospital stays. Intraoperative blood transfusion, extensive resection and different comorbidities have been identified. Other parameters, like time of hepatic ischemia, have neither been clinically studied, though experimental studies show that hepatic ischemia can provide lung injury. The objective of this study was to determinate the risk factors of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after hepatic resection within 7 postoperative days.Ninety-four patients consecutively who underwent elective hepatectomy between January and December 2013. Demographic data, pathological variables, and preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative variables had been prospectively collected in a data base. The dependant variables studied were the occurrence of PPCs, defined before analysis of the data.PPCs occurred in 32 (34%) patients. A multivariate analysis allowed identifying the risk factors for PPCs. On multivariate analysis, preoperative gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) elevation OR =5,12 [1,85-15,69] p = 0,002, liver ischemia duration OR = 1,03 [1,01-1,06] p = 0,01 and the intraoperative use of vasopressor OR = 4,40 [1,58-13,36] p = 0,006 were independently associated with PPCs. For every 10 min added in ischemia duration, the OR of the risk of PPCs was estimated to be 1.37 (CI95% = [1.08-1.81], p = 0.01).Three risk factors for PPCs have been identified in a population undergoing liver resection: preoperative GGT elevation, ischemia duration and the intraoperative use of vasopressor. PPCs after liver surgery could be related to lung injury induced by liver ischemia reperfusion and not solely by direct infectious process. That could explain why factors influencing directly or indirectly liver ischemia were independently associated with PPCs.

Project description:BackgroundCompared with historic ventilation strategies, modern lung-protective ventilation includes lower tidal volumes (VT), lower driving pressures, and application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). The contributions of each component to an overall intraoperative protective ventilation strategy aimed at reducing postoperative pulmonary complications have neither been adequately resolved, nor comprehensively evaluated within an adult cardiac surgical population. The authors hypothesized that a bundled intraoperative protective ventilation strategy was independently associated with decreased odds of pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery.MethodsIn this observational cohort study, the authors reviewed nonemergent cardiac surgical procedures using cardiopulmonary bypass at a tertiary care academic medical center from 2006 to 2017. The authors tested associations between bundled or component intraoperative protective ventilation strategies (VT below 8 ml/kg ideal body weight, modified driving pressure [peak inspiratory pressure - PEEP] below 16 cm H2O, and PEEP greater than or equal to 5 cm H2O) and postoperative outcomes, adjusting for previously identified risk factors. The primary outcome was a composite pulmonary complication; secondary outcomes included individual pulmonary complications, postoperative mortality, as well as durations of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit stay, and hospital stay.ResultsAmong 4,694 cases reviewed, 513 (10.9%) experienced pulmonary complications. After adjustment, an intraoperative lung-protective ventilation bundle was associated with decreased pulmonary complications (adjusted odds ratio, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.42-0.75). Via a sensitivity analysis, modified driving pressure below 16 cm H2O was independently associated with decreased pulmonary complications (adjusted odds ratio, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.39-0.66), but VT below 8 ml/kg and PEEP greater than or equal to 5 cm H2O were not.ConclusionsThe authors identified an intraoperative lung-protective ventilation bundle as independently associated with pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery. The findings offer insight into components of protective ventilation associated with adverse outcomes and may serve as targets for future prospective interventional studies investigating the impact of specific protective ventilation strategies on postoperative outcomes after cardiac surgery.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Intraoperative catastrophes during robotic anatomical pulmonary resections are potentially devastating events. The present study aimed to assess the incidence, management, and outcomes of these intraoperative catastrophes for patients with primary lung cancers. METHODS:This was a retrospective, multiinstitutional study that evaluated patients who underwent robotic anatomical pulmonary resections. Intraoperative catastrophes were defined as events necessitating emergency thoracotomy or requiring an additional unplanned major surgical procedure. Standardized data forms were collected from each institution, with questions on intraoperative management strategies of catastrophic events. RESULTS:Overall, 1810 patients underwent robotic anatomical pulmonary resections, including 1566 (86.5%) lobectomies. Thirty-five patients (1.9%) experienced an intraoperative catastrophe. These patients were found to have significantly higher clinical TNM stage (P = .031) and lower forced expiratory volume in 1 second (81% vs 90%; P = .004). A higher proportion of patients who had a catastrophic event underwent preoperative radiotherapy (8.6% vs 2.3%; P = .048), and the surgical procedures performed differed significantly compared with noncatastrophic patients. Patients in the catastrophic group had higher perioperative mortality (5.7% vs 0.5%; P = .018), longer operative duration (195 minutes vs 170 minutes; P = .020), and higher estimated blood loss (225 mL vs 50 mL; P < .001). The most common catastrophic event was intraoperative hemorrhage from the pulmonary artery, followed by injury to the airway, pulmonary vein, and liver. Detailed management strategies were discussed. CONCLUSIONS:The incidence of catastrophic events during robotic anatomical pulmonary resections was low, and the most common complication was pulmonary arterial injury. Awareness of potential intraoperative catastrophes and their management strategies are critical to improving clinical outcomes.

Project description:Introduction: The role of intraoperative ventilation strategies in subjects undergoing surgery is still contested. This meta-analysis study was performed to assess the relationship between the low tidal volumes strategy and conventional mechanical ventilation in subjects undergoing surgery. Methods: A systematic literature search up to December 2020 was performed in OVID, Embase, Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Google scholar, and 28 studies including 11,846 subjects undergoing surgery at baseline and reporting a total of 2,638 receiving the low tidal volumes strategy and 3,632 receiving conventional mechanical ventilation, were found recording relationships between low tidal volumes strategy and conventional mechanical ventilation in subjects undergoing surgery. Odds ratio (OR) or mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated between the low tidal volumes strategy vs. conventional mechanical ventilation using dichotomous and continuous methods with a random or fixed-effect model. Results: The low tidal volumes strategy during surgery was significantly related to a lower rate of postoperative pulmonary complications (OR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.44-0.83, p < 0.001), aspiration pneumonitis (OR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.46-0.86, p < 0.001), and pleural effusion (OR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.56-0.92, p < 0.001) compared to conventional mechanical ventilation. However, the low tidal volumes strategy during surgery was not significantly correlated with length of hospital stay (MD, -0.48; 95% CI, -0.99-0.02, p = 0.06), short-term mortality (OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.70-1.10, p = 0.25), atelectasis (OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.57-1.01, p = 0.06), acute respiratory distress (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.67-1.66, p = 0.81), pneumothorax (OR, 1.37; 95% CI, 0.88-2.15, p = 0.17), pulmonary edema (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.38-1.26, p = 0.23), and pulmonary embolism (OR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.26-1.60, p = 0.35) compared to conventional mechanical ventilation. Conclusions: The low tidal volumes strategy during surgery may have an independent relationship with lower postoperative pulmonary complications, aspiration pneumonitis, and pleural effusion compared to conventional mechanical ventilation. This relationship encouraged us to recommend the low tidal volumes strategy during surgery to avoid any possible complications.

Project description:Background"Lung-protective ventilation" describes a ventilation strategy involving low tidal volumes (VTs) and/or low driving pressure/plateau pressure and has been associated with improved outcomes after mechanical ventilation. We evaluated the association between intraoperative ventilation parameters (including positive end-expiratory pressure [PEEP], driving pressure, and VT) and 3 postoperative outcomes: (1) PaO2/fractional inspired oxygen tension (FIO2), (2) postoperative pulmonary complications, and (3) 30-day mortality.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed adult patients who underwent major noncardiac surgery and remained intubated postoperatively from 2006 to 2015 at a single US center. Using multivariable regressions, we studied associations between intraoperative ventilator settings and lowest postoperative PaO2/FIO2 while intubated, pulmonary complications identified from discharge diagnoses, and in-hospital 30-day mortality.ResultsAmong a cohort of 2096 cases, the median PEEP was 5 cm H2O (interquartile range = 4-6), median delivered VT was 520 mL (interquartile range = 460-580), and median driving pressure was 15 cm H2O (13-19). After multivariable adjustment, intraoperative median PEEP (linear regression estimate [B] = -6.04; 95% CI, -8.22 to -3.87; P < .001), median FIO2 (B = -0.30; 95% CI, -0.50 to -0.10; P = .003), and hours with driving pressure >16 cm H2O (B = -5.40; 95% CI, -7.2 to -4.2; P < .001) were associated with decreased postoperative PaO2/FIO2. Higher postoperative PaO2/FIO2 ratios were associated with a decreased risk of pulmonary complications (adjusted odds ratio for each 100 mm Hg = 0.495; 95% CI, 0.331-0.740; P = .001, model C-statistic of 0.852) and mortality (adjusted odds ratio = 0.495; 95% CI, 0.366-0.606; P < .001, model C-statistic of 0.820). Intraoperative time with VT >500 mL was also associated with an increased likelihood of developing a postoperative pulmonary complication (adjusted odds ratio = 1.06/hour; 95% CI, 1.00-1.20; P = .042).ConclusionsIn patients requiring postoperative intubation after noncardiac surgery, increased median FIO2, increased median PEEP, and increased time duration with elevated driving pressure predict lower postoperative PaO2/FIO2. Intraoperative duration of VT >500 mL was independently associated with increased postoperative pulmonary complications. Lower postoperative PaO2/FIO2 ratios were independently associated with pulmonary complications and mortality. Our findings suggest that postoperative PaO2/FIO2 may be a potential target for future prospective trials investigating the impact of specific ventilation strategies for reducing ventilator-induced pulmonary injury.
