Risk factors for early morbidity and mortality following pancreatoduodenectomy with concomitant vascular reconstruction.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background
Locally advanced pancreatic tumors may require vascular reconstruction for complete resection. However, pancreatoduodenectomy with vascular resection (PDVR) remains a subject of debate due to increased complications.Methods
Patients were identified using the ACS NSQIP Participant User Data Files from 2014 to 2019.Results
The 30-day mortality rate was 2.7%; major complications occurred in 32.2%. There is an increasing trend of PDVR in patients requiring pancreatectomy. There were no significant differences in mortality between PDVR with vein, artery, or venous and arterial resections. High BMI and postoperative biliary stent were risk factors for early complications. High BMI and COPD increased risk of early mortality. Chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy were negative predictors for early morbidities and mortality, respectively.Conclusion
This study identifies the predictors of early morbidity and mortality in PDVR. The results of this study may assist decision making in perioperative management to optimize overall survival and guide additional research.

Project description:Despite the epidemic rise in obesity, few studies have evaluated the effect of obesity on cost following cardiac surgery. We hypothesized that increasing body mass index (BMI) is associated with worse risk-adjusted outcomes and higher cost.Medical records for 13 637 consecutive patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (9702), aortic (1535) or mitral (837) valve surgery, and combined valve-coronary artery bypass grafting (1663) procedures were extracted from a regional Society of Thoracic Surgeons certified database. Patients were stratified by BMI: normal to overweight (BMI 18.5-30), obese (BMI 30-40), and morbidly obese (BMI >40). Differences in outcomes and cost were compared between BMI strata and also modeled as a continuous function of BMI with adjustment for preoperative risk using Society of Thoracic Surgeons predictive risk indices. Morbidly obese patients incurred nearly 60% greater observed mortality than normal weight patients. Moreover, morbidly obese patients had greater than 2-fold increase in renal failure and 6.5-fold increase in deep sternal wound infection. After risk adjustment, a significant association was found between BMI and mortality (P<0.001) and major morbidity (P<0.001). The risk-adjusted odds ratio for mortality for morbidly obese patients was 1.57 (P=0.02) compared to normal patients. Importantly, risk-adjusted total hospital cost increased with BMI, with 17.2% higher costs in morbidly obese patients.Higher BMI is associated with increased mortality, major morbidity, and cost for hospital care. As such, BMI should be more strongly considered in risk assessment and resource allocation.

Project description:BackgroundPancreatoduodenectomy is still hampered by significant morbidity. So far, there is no universally accepted technique aimed at minimizing postoperative complications. Herein, we compare three different reconstruction techniques.MethodsThis is a retrospective study of a prospectively maintained database including 283 patients operated between January 2010 and December 2020. Three reconstruction techniques were compared: (1) the Neuhaus-style telescope pancreatojejunostomy, (2) the pancreatogastrostomy, and (3) the modified Blumgart-style, duct-to-mucosa pancreatojejunostomy. The primary endpoint consisted in determining the rates of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulas (CR-POPF); the secondary endpoints included 90 days morbidity and mortality rates. A propensity score matching analysis was used.ResultsRates of CR-POPF did not differ significantly between the groups (Neuhaus-style pancreatojejunostomy 16%, pancreatogastrostomy 17%, modified Blumgart-style pancreatojejunostomy 15%), neither in the unmatched nor in the matched analysis (p = 0.993 and p = 0.901, respectively). Similarly, no significant differences could be observed with regard to major morbidity (unmatched p = 0.596, matched p = 0.188) and mortality rates (unmatched p = 0.371, matched p = 0.209) within the first 90 days following surgery. Propensity-score matching analyses revealed, however, a higher occurrence of post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage after pancreatogastrostomy (p = 0.015).ConclusionSimilar CR-POPF rates suggest no crucial role of the applied reconstruction technique. Increased incidence of intraluminal post-pancreatectomy hemorrhages following pancreatogastrostomy demands awareness for meticulous hemostasis.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the risk factors for early recurrence after curative pancreatoduodenectomy for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.MethodsAll data were retrospectively collected from patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who had undergone pancreatoduodenectomy at the Department of Surgery, Phramongkutklao Hospital, from January 2015 to December 2020. The preoperative and perioperative risk factors were included into the analysis.ResultsIn total, 34 patients were included in the study. The median time for recurrence and median survival time were 17 and 20 months, respectively. The 1, 3, and 5 year disease-free survival rates were 59.6%, 23.87%, and 23.87%, respectively, while the 1, 3, and 5 year overall survival rates were 81%, 24.7%, and 12.4%, respectively. Seventeen patients (50%) from a total of 34 patients had recurrence, and ten patients (29.41%) had recurrence within 12 months. The independent preoperative risk factor associated with adverse disease-free survival was tumor size > 4 cm (hazard ratio [HR], 14.34, p=0.022). The perioperative risk factors associated with adverse disease-free survival were pathological lymphovascular invasion (HR, 4.31; p=0.048) and non-hepatopancreatobiliary surgeon (HR, 5.9; p=0.022). Risk factors associated with poor overall survival were microscopical margin positive (R1) resection (HR, 3.68; p=0.019) and non-hepatopancreatobiliary surgeon (HR, 3.45; p=0.031).ConclusionsTumor size > 4 cm from the preoperative imaging study was a poor prognostic factor for early recurrence after curative pancreatoduodenectomy for resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma indicated that they may have radiological occult metastasis, thus, staging laparoscopy may reduce the number of unnecessary laparotomies and avoid missing radiologically negative metastases.

Project description:SARS-CoV-2 has caused a high mortality in institutionalised individuals. There are very few studies on the involvement and the real impact of COVID-19 in nursing homes. This study analysed factors related to morbidity and mortality of COVID-19 in institutionalised elderly people. This cohort study included 842 individuals from 12 nursing homes in Sant Cugat del Vallès (Spain) from 15 March to 15 May 2020. We evaluated individual factors (demographic, dependence, clinical, and therapeutic) and those related to the nursing homes (size and staff) associated with infection and mortality by SARS-CoV-2. Infection was diagnosed by molecular biology test. Of the 842 residents included in the analysis, 784 underwent a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test; 74.2% were women, the mean age was 87.1 years, and 11.1% died. The PCR test was positive in 44%. A total of 33.4% of the residents presented symptoms compatible with COVID-19 and of these, 80.9% were PCR-positive for SARS-CoV-2. Infection by SARS-CoV-2 among residents was associated with the rate of staff infected in the homes. Mortality by SARS-CoV-2 was related to male sex and a greater grade of dependence measured with the Barthel index. SARS-Cov-2 infection in institutionalised people is associated with the infection rate in nursing home workers and mortality by SARS-Cov-2 with sex and greater dependency according to the Barthel index. Adequate management of nursing home staff and special attention to measures of infection control, especially of individuals with greater dependence, are keys for successful management of future pandemic situations.

Project description:BackgroundCholangitis is a late complication after pancreatoduodenectomy with considerable clinical impact and is difficult to treat. The aim of this systematic review was to provide an overview of the literature identifying risk factors for postoperative cholangitis.MethodsA systematic search of the databases PUBMED and EMBASE was performed to identify all studies reporting on possible risk factors for cholangitis following pancreatoduodenectomy. Data on patient, peri- and postoperative characteristics were collected. Risk of bias assessment was done according to the methodological index for non-randomized studies (MINORS) criteria.ResultsIn total, 464 studies were identified. Eight studies met the inclusion criteria for this analysis. The definition of postoperative cholangitis was inconsistent, with four studies using the Tokyo Guidelines, whereas other studies used different definitions. Data on 26 potential risk factors concerning the patient, peri- and postoperative characteristics were analyzed. Five factors were significantly associated with cholangitis in two or more studies: high body mass index, duration of surgery, benign disease, postoperative pancreatic fistula, and postoperative serum alkaline phosphatase.ConclusionMultiple potential risk factors for postoperative cholangitis were identified, with large discrepancies between studies. Prospective research, with consensus on the definition, is required to determine the true relevance of these risk factors.

Project description:BackgroundControversy persists regarding the safety of same-day bilateral TKAs, and indications for same-day versus staged bilateral surgery need to be clarified.Questions/purposesWe compared the (1) 30-day mortality, (2) rates of in-hospital complications, (3) in-hospital charges, and (4) risk factors for complications among patients undergoing same-day and staged bilateral TKAs at two separate admissions within 1 year either less than 3 months apart (staged 0-3) or more than 3 months apart (staged 3-12) at an institution where same-day bilateral TKAs were discouraged in patients with more severe medical comorbidities.MethodsWe analyzed institutional data from 3960 same-day, 172 staged 0-3, and 1533 staged 3-12 bilateral TKAs performed between 1998 and 2011. Patient demographics, comorbidities, and 30-day mortality were tabulated. Same-day patients were younger and healthier. Outcomes of interest included complications, blood transfusions, transfer to rehabilitation, and in-hospital charges. Regression models were conducted to identify independent risk factors for major morbidity or mortality.ResultsThere were no differences in 30-day mortality among groups. The same-day group experienced more acute postoperative anemia, blood transfusions, and transfers to rehabilitation, but otherwise had complications comparable to those of the staged groups. In-hospital charges were lower in the same-day group. Congestive heart failure and pulmonary hypertension were the most significant factors associated with morbidity and mortality in the same-day group.ConclusionsIn a high-volume subspecialty setting in which patients undergoing same-day bilateral TKAs were generally much healthier and younger, we found that same-day bilateral TKAs appeared to be safe.

Project description:Our aim in this retrospective study was to determine the factors affecting poor prognosis and mortality of organophosphate (OP) poisoning by reviewing patient data. We also reviewed present knowledge to make conclusions on certain longstanding debates in light of the literature.In this retrospective descriptive study, patients who were admitted to and hospitalized in the emergency department (ED) or intensive care unit (ICU) of a university hospital with the diagnosis of OP poisoning between December 2010 and December 2015 were evaluated. All the data were obtained from electronic and manual patient files. A total of 80 patients were included in the study.The mean age of the study patients was 32.4±15.0 (13-94). Forty-nine (61.2%) patients were female. Twenty-two (27.5%) patients were seriously poisoned and needed mechanical ventilation (MV) support. Low pseudocholinesterase (PChE), high creatinine (Cr), low Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores and long hospitalization durations were all found to be poor prognostics in MV patients. Low PChE and high Cr levels were found to be independent predictors of the hospitalization duration and high Cr was found to be an independent predictor of the intubation duration of MV patients in regression analyses. Ten (45.5%) of the MV patients were unresponsive to medical treatment and Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) was performed. Seven patients were discharged healthy. Three patients with low PChE levels and comorbidities died.Prolongation of respiratory depression necessitating MV support, comorbidities, long hospital stay, elevated creatinine, low GCS scores and low PcHE levels without regeneration in the first 48 hours of admission are all found to be poor prognostic factors for organophosphate (OP) poisoning.

Project description:Craniopharyngioma (CP) treatment, including surgery and radiotherapy, can have short- and long-term vascular side effects. Hypothalamic damage is related to morbid obesity and may increase the lifelong risk of experiencing vascular events in CP patients. This review summarized the available evidence regarding vascular complications in adamantinomatous or papillary CP patients, whatever their age at diagnosis. Three databases (Medline, CINAHL, Web of Science) were searched (06/2023) to retrieve eligible articles. The search was limited to peer-reviewed articles. Titles, abstracts, and full texts were screened by two independent reviewers, and data were extracted using a self-developed grid. Seventy-two studies were included in this review; the majority were case reports. Reported vascular sequela that occurred due to surgery were fusiform dilation of the carotid artery, stroke, vasospasm, hemorrhage, and aneurysm. Related conditions that emerged due to radiotherapy included Moyamoya syndrome and cavernoma. Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality often lead to hypothalamic obesity and metabolic syndrome in CP patients. Vascular damage is a rare complication of CP treatment. Surgical strategies should protect the surrounding hypothalamic and vascular structures. Patients receiving radiotherapy, particularly at a young age, should undergo magnetic resonance angiography monitoring to identify possible neurovascular sequela during post-treatment care.

Project description:BACKGROUND:An acute episode of malaria can be followed by multiple recurrent episodes either due to re-infection, recrudescence of a partially treated parasite or, in the case of Plasmodium vivax or P. ovale, relapse from the dormant liver stage of the parasite. The aim of this study was to quantify the impact of recurrent malaria episodes on morbidity and mortality in Papua, Indonesia. METHODS:We undertook a retrospective analysis of routinely collected data from malaria patients attending the primary referral hospital in Papua, Indonesia, between April 2004 and December 2013. Multi-state modelling was used to estimate the effect of recurring malaria episodes on re-presentation and admission to hospital and death. The risks of early (??14?days) and late (15 to 365?days) hospital admission and death were estimated separately in our study to distinguish between the direct and indirect effects of malaria recurrence on adverse outcomes. RESULTS:A total of 68,361 patients were included in the analysis, of whom 37,168 (54.4%) presented initially with P. falciparum, 22,209 (32.5%) with P. vivax, and 8984 (13.1%) with other species. During 12?months of follow-up after each of the first four malaria episodes, 10,868 (15.9%) patients were admitted to hospital and 897 (1.3%) died. The risk of re-presenting to the hospital with malaria increased from 34.7% (95% CI 34.4%, 35.1%) at first episode to 58.6% (57.5%, 59.6%) following the third episode of malaria. After adjusting for co-factors, infection with P. vivax was a significant risk factor for re-presentation (hazard ratio (HR)?=?1.48 (95% CI 1.44, 1.51)) and late admission to hospital (HR?=?1.17 (1.11, 1.22)). Patients infected with P. falciparum had a greater overall rate of mortality within 14?days (HR?=?1.54 (1.25, 1.92)), but after multiple episodes of malaria, there was a trend towards a higher rate of early death in patients infected with P. vivax compared to P. falciparum (HR?=?1.91 (0.73, 4.97)). CONCLUSIONS:Compared to patients initially infected with P. falciparum, those infected with P. vivax had significantly more re-presentations to hospital with malaria, and this contributed to a high risk of inpatient admission and death. These findings highlight the importance of radical cure of P. vivax to eliminate the dormant liver stages that trigger relapses.
