Postoperative acute respiratory dysfunction and the influence of antibiotics after acute type A aortic dissection surgery: A retrospective analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Surgery for acute type A aortic dissection is associated with several perioperative complications, such as acute respiratory dysfunction (ARD). The aim of this study was to investigate perioperative risk factors involved in the development of ARD and whether antibiotic treatment has an impact.

Methods

243 patients underwent surgery for acute type A aortic dissection between 2008 and 2017. The patients were retrospectively divided into the ARD and NON-ARD group. ARD was defined as PaO2/FiO2 ? 200 mmHg (PF ratio) within 48 hours after surgery. All patients received either narrow- or broad-spectrum antibiotics.

Results

After the exclusion of 42 patients, 201 patients were analyzed. The PF ratio of the ARD group was significantly lower than of the NON-ARD group within the first 7 days. ARD patients (n = 111) were significantly older (p = .031) and had a higher body mass index (BMI) (p = .017). ARD patients required longer postoperative ventilation (2493 vs. 4695 [min], p = .006) and spent more days in the intensive care unit (7.0 vs. 8.9 [days], p = .043) compared to NON-ARD. The mortality was significantly lower for ARD than for NON-ARD patients (p = .030). The incidence of pneumonia was independent of the antibiotic treatment regime (p = .391). Renal and neurological complication rate was higher in patients treated with broad-spectrum antibiotic.

Conclusion

ARD is the main complication (55%) that occurs approximately 24 hours after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection. The preoperative risk factors for ARD were higher age and increased BMI. Patients on broad-spectrum antibiotics did not show an improved postoperative outcome compared to patients with narrow-spectrum antibiotics.

Project description:Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) is a devastating cardiovascular disease with extraordinary morbidity and mortality. Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) is a common complication following ATAAD surgery, leading to adverse outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between mechanical ventilation time (MVT) and prognosis and to devise a nomogram for predicting PMV after ATAAD surgery. This retrospective study enrolled 1049 ATAAD patients from 2011 to 2019. Subgroups were divided into < 12 h, 12 h to < 24 h, 24 h to < 48 h, 48 h to < 72 h, and ≥ 72 h according to MVT. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared among the groups. Using multivariable logistic regression analyses, we investigated the relationship between each stratification of MVT and mortality. A nomogram was constructed based on the refined multivariable logistic regression model for predicting PMV. The total mortality was 11.8% (124/1049). The results showed that the groups with MVT 48 h to < 72 h and ≥ 72 h had significantly higher operative mortality compared to other MVT categories. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MVT ≥72 h was significantly associated with higher short-term mortality. Thus, a nomogram was presented to elucidate the association between PMV (MVT ≥72 h) and risk factors including advanced age, preoperative cerebral ischemia, ascending aorta replacement, concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), longer cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and large-volume intraoperative fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion. The nomogram exhibited strong predictive performance upon validation. Safely extubating patients within 72 h after ATAAD surgery is crucial for achieving favorable outcomes. The developed and validated nomogram provides a valuable tool for predicting PMV and optimizing postoperative care to improve patient prognosis. This novel nomogram has the potential to guide clinical decision-making and resource allocation in the management of ATAAD patients.

Project description:BackgroundHypoxemia is a common complication after Stanford type A acute aortic dissection surgery (AADS), however, few studies about hypoxemia after AADS exist. The aims of this study were to identify independent risk factors for hypoxemia after AADS and to clarify its association with clinical outcomes.MethodsPatients undergoing AADS from 2016 to 2019 in our hospital were identified and used as a training set. Preoperative variables were first screened by univariate analysis and then entered into a multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify independent risk factors. A nomogram and an online risk calculator were constructed based on the logistic model to facilitate clinical practice and was externally validated in an independent dataset.ResultsSevere hypoxemia developed in 119 of the 492 included patients (24.2%) and poorer clinical outcomes were observed in these patients. Five independent risk factors for severe hypoxemia after AADS were identified by multivariate analysis, including older age, smoking history, renal insufficiency, higher body mass index, and white blood cell count. The model showed good calibration, discrimination, and clinical utility in the training set, and was well validated in the validation set. Risk stratification was performed and three risk groups were defined as low, medium, and high risk groups. Hypertension was identified as an independent risk factor for moderate hypoxemia besides the five predictors mentioned above, and renal insufficiency was not significant for mild hypoxemia by multivariate analysis. In addition, although frozen elephant trunk was associated with increased risk of postoperative hypoxemia in the univariate analysis, frozen elephant trunk was also not identified as an independent risk factor for postoperative hypoxemia in the multivariate analysis.ConclusionHypoxemia was frequent following AADS, related to poorer clinical outcomes. Predictors were identified and a nomogram as well as an online risk calculator predicting severe hypoxemia after AADS was developed and validated, which may be helpful for risk estimation and perioperative management.
