Detecting Oropharyngeal and Esophageal Emptying by Submental Ultrasonography and High-Resolution Impedance Manometry: Intubated vs. Non-Intubated Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery.

ABSTRACT: Postoperative swallowing, affected by general anesthesia and intubation, plays an important part in airway and oral intake safety regarding effective oropharyngeal and esophageal emptying. However, objective evidence is limited. This study aimed to determine the time required from emergence to effective oropharyngeal and esophageal emptying in patients undergoing non-intubated (N) or tracheal-intubated (I) video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Hyoid bone displacement (HBD) by submental ultrasonography and high-resolution impedance manometry (HRIM) measurements were used to assess oropharyngeal and esophageal emptying. HRIM was performed every 10 min after emergence, up to 10 times. The primary outcome was to determine whether intubation affects the time required from effective oropharyngeal to esophageal emptying. The secondary outcome was to verify if HBD is comparable to preoperative data indicating effective oropharyngeal emptying. Thirty-two patients suitable for non-intubated VATS were recruited. Our results showed that comparable HBDs were achieved in all patients after emergence. Effective esophageal emptying was achieved at the first HRIM measurement in 11 N group patients and 2 I group patients (p = 0.002) and was achieved in all N (100%) and 13 I group patients (81%) within 100 min (p = 0.23). HBD and HRIM are warranted for detecting postoperative oropharyngeal and esophageal emptying.

Project description:BackgroundNon-intubated anesthesia thoracoscopic surgery is an evolving form of minimally invasive thoracic surgery. It has had encouraging results in the treatment of lung cancer, and the current concept of enhanced recovery after surgery has become indispensable to surgical treatment. Our center retrospectively evaluated the clinical effect of rapid postoperative rehabilitation in patients who underwent thoracoscopic lung surgery under non-intubated anesthesia.MethodsThe clinical data of 192 patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) at the Department of Thoracic Surgery of The First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 75 received double-lumen endotracheal intubation anesthesia, and 117 received a laryngeal mask instead of endotracheal intubated anesthesia. Comparing the intra-and post-operative indicators difference of these 2 groups.ResultsThere were no significant differences in the postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, hemoglobin counts and platelet count 24 h after surgery between the non-intubated anesthesia and intubated anesthesia groups (P>0.05). In terms of the postoperative rehabilitation indicators of the VATS patients, the non-intubated anesthesia group had an earlier recovery in terms of water (food) intake, out-of-bed activity, and defecation (exhaust) times (P<0.001), less postoperative complications and adverse throat reactions (P<0.05), and higher levels of satisfaction (P<0.05) than the intubated anesthesia group. Compared to the intubated anesthesia group, the non-intubated anesthesia group had fewer changes of white blood cell counts, neutrophil percentages and lymphocytes percentages 24 h postoperatively (9.25×109 vs. 7.67×109, P=0.045; 7.06 vs. 5.53, P=0.039; 1.45 vs. 1.27, P=0.017), significant reduction pleural drainage after restoring oral intake in postoperative 24 and 48 h (198.43 vs. 131.07 and 114.04 vs. 57.47 mL, P<0.001), shorter postoperative thoracic tube drainage times (3.73 vs. 3.13 d, P<0.001). Notably, there was no difference between the smoking history and previous medical history of the patients in the 2 groups.ConclusionsCompared to intubation by general anesthesia, non-intubated thoracoscopic anesthesia is a safe and effective option. Patients who undergo non-intubated thoracoscopic lung surgery have a rapid recovery after surgery. Thus, it is worthy of promotion in clinical surgery settings.

Project description:BackgroundNon-intubated uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (niVATS) is a novel approach to major and minor lung resection. It benefits from a holistic anesthesiological concept with adequate pain relief and sedation in a minimal-invasive setup allowing thoracic procedures under spontaneous breathing. At present no anesthesiological gold standard for niVATS exists. The primary aim of our retrospective observational study was to evaluate feasibility and safety of minimally invasive niVATS for both minor and major pulmonary resections at our institution.MethodsAll 88 consecutive patients scheduled for niVATS minor or major thoracic procedures were included into the study. Anaesthesia was performed according to a departmental niVATS algorithm including both regional anaesthesia and sedation. Patient characteristics and early outcome data including intraoperative and postoperative findings were compared between groups. Prediction scores for postoperative complications (LAS VEGAS, ARISCAT, ThRCRI) were calculated and compared.ResultsNo early mortality and a low overall morbidity rate of 28.4% were encountered. Conversion to orotracheal intubation was required in 6.8% of all cases. Postoperative pulmonary complications occurred in 15.9% of total cases and were lower than predicted by both LAS VEGAS and ARISCAT respectively. Cardiac complications were found in 1.1% and lower than predicted by ThRCRI. A persistent air leak occurred in 11.4% of total cases and was significantly higher in major resection. Postoperative chest tube duration and hospital length of stay in the major resection group exceeded times reported by other groups.ConclusionsniVATS appears to be safe in both minor and major thoracic procedures. A minimally invasive anaesthesiological approach foregoing central iv lines, arterial blood pressure measurement and urinary catheterization is feasible. Our niVATS protocol appears to be a viable alternative for both minor and major thoracic procedures in selected patients.

Project description:ObjectiveNonintubated anesthesia, electromagnetic navigation (EMN)-guided preoperative localization, and uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) are recent innovations in minimally invasive thoracic surgery. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of applying nonintubated anesthesia in a "one-stage" localization and resection workflow.MethodsPatients who underwent EMN-guided preoperative percutaneous localization with indocyanine green (ICG) and uniportal VATS were included. Perioperative data were compared between patients receiving nonintubated anesthesia and those receiving general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation.ResultsForty-six patients with a total of 50 nodules were included in the study. Overall, finger palpation could be avoided in 94% of the nodules, whereas fluorescent green signals with a clear border on the pleural surface were noted in 91.3% (21 of 23) of nodules in the nonintubated group and 88.9% (24 of 27) of nodules in the intubated group. Intraoperatively, the nonintubated group had a lower median pH (7.33 [interquartile range (IQR), 7.28-7.40] vs 7.41 [IQR, 7.38-7.44]; P = .003), higher median arterial CO2 (45.5 [IQR, 41.1-58.7] mm Hg vs 38.4 [IQR, 35.3-40.6] mm Hg; P < .001), and lower arterial oxygen (322 [IQR, 211-433] mm Hg vs 426 [IQR, 355-471] mm Hg; P = .005) levels compared with the intubated group. The nonintubated group also had a shorter median registration time (2.0 [IQR, 1.0-3.0] minutes vs 3.0 [IQR, 2.0-8.0] minutes; P = .008) and total time in the operating room (150 [IQR, 130-175] minutes vs 170 [IQR, 135-203] minutes; P = .035), whereas no between-group differences were seen in localization and operative time. The duration of chest drainage, postoperative complications, pathologic diagnosis, and margins were similar in the 2 groups.ConclusionsNonintubated "one-stage" EMN-guided percutaneous ICG localization and uniportal VATS can be an option for selected patients undergoing treatment for small peripheral nodules.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS:Recognition of rumination and supragastric belching is often delayed as symptoms may be mistakenly attributed to gastroesophageal reflux disease. However, distinct from gastroesophageal reflux disease, rumination and supragastric belching are more responsive to behavioral interventions than to acid-suppressive and antireflux therapies. Postprandial high-resolution impedance manometry (PP-HRIM) is an efficient method to identify rumination and belches. We investigated the distribution of postprandial profiles determined by PP-HRIM, and identified patient features associated with postprandial profiles among patients with nonresponse to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). METHODS:We performed a retrospective analysis of PP-HRIM studies performed on 94 adults (mean age, 50.6 y; 62% female) evaluated for PPI nonresponsiveness at an esophageal referral center, from January 2010 through May 2016. Following a standard esophageal manometry protocol, patients ingested a solid refluxogenic test meal (identified by patients as one that induces symptoms) with postprandial monitoring up to 90 minutes (median, 50 min). Patients were assigned to 1 of 4 postprandial profiles: normal; reflux only (>6 transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxations (TLESRs)/h); supragastric belch (>2 supragastric belches/h), with or without TLESR; or rumination (?1 rumination episode/h) with or without TLESR and supragastric belching. The primary outcome was postprandial profile. RESULTS:Of the study participants, 24% had a normal postprandial profile, 14% had a reflux-only profile, 42% had a supragastric belch profile, and 20% had a rumination profile. In multinomial regression analysis, the rumination group most frequently presented with regurgitation, the supragastric belch and rumination groups were younger in age, and the reflux-only group had a lower esophagogastric junction contractile integral. The number of weakly acidic reflux events measured by impedance-pH monitoring in patients receiving PPI therapy was significantly associated with frequency of rumination episodes and supragastric belches. CONCLUSIONS:In a retrospective analysis of 94 nonresponders to PPI therapy evaluated by PP-HRIM, we detected an abnormal postprandial pattern in 76% of cases: 42% of these were characterized as supragastric belching, 20% as rumination, and 14% as reflux only. Age, esophagogastric junction contractility, impedance-pH profiles, and symptom presentation differed significantly among groups. PP-HRIM can be used in the clinic to evaluate mechanisms of PPI nonresponse.
