With the knowledge of currently transmitted omicron variant being less virulent, over 90 percent of the Chinese population is fully vaccinated, and the Chinese health workers have sufficient experience treating the illness. China 's epidemic prevention and control has entered a new stage to restore the normal functioning of society and basic medical services, On Dec, 7, China released a circular on further optimizing its COVID-19 response, announcing 10 new prevention and control measures.This has marked the watershed for sharply increased number of elective surgical patients diagnosed with COVID-19 during preoperativley, fully recovered or during recovery. Beijing faced a wave of omicron infection starting that would result in of a wide range of population infections. At which time there is limited evidence regarding the optimal timing of surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection especially for omiron among Chinsese patients .This study intends to explore the relationship between the incidence of postoperative complications after elective surgery and COVID-19 infection in Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and provide data support for the policy formulation of elective surgical timing for patients after COVID-19 infection.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a critical complication associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality that can occur in critically ill patients and after major surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to identify the incidance and outcomes of patients underwent pneumonectomy, defined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.
This study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing two strategies of mean arterial blood pressure management (MAP ≥ 80mmHg vs MAP ≥ 65 mmHg) in high-risk surgical patients undergoing elective laparotomic/laparoscopic surgery.
The aim of this study is to compare ultrasound-guided ESBP and Rhomboid block in terms of postoperative pain management, postoperative opioid consumption and complications in patients undergoing lobectomy with VATS.Patients aged 18-75 years, ASA 1-2-3, who gave informed consent to lobectomy with video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) method will be included in this study. Patients with contraindications for the application of either method, known chronic pain, local anesthetic allergy, spinal deformity or mental or psychiatric problems that prevent cooperation, taking anticoagulants, and infection at the injection site will not be included in the study. Patients who agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to one of the anesthesia groups of the study, which include ESPB (elector spina plane block) (Group 1) or Rhomboid block (Group 2). Randomization will be at a ratio of 1:1 and will be done by the closed-envelope method. Beforehand, a piece of paper with the name of one of the two groups will be placed inside the envelopes and the envelopes will be closed and mixed. A closed envelope will be drawn randomly for each patient before the procedure, and procedures will be carried out according to the group specified on the paper.
The study will be prospective non-interventional and will include patients with kidney stones who are to undergo one of the following three techniques: retrograde nephrolithotripsy, percutaneous nephrolithotripsy and extracorporeal nephrolithotripsy depending on the size of the stone. Data regarding post operative descriptions will be recorded and comprehensive complication index will be used for the assesment of the burden.
Obesity is defined as a body mass index greater than or equal to 30 kg / m2 and represents a public health problem that affects the world population. It is associated with a higher frequency of cardiovascular, metabolic diseases, and respiratory morbidities, which affect the quality of life of patients. Its treatment comprises different strategies, however, due the conventional treatments, surgical treatment has been the most sought after today. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of preoperative inspiratory muscle training in the evolution of respiratory muscle strength in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Methodology: Randomized clinical trial. All patients will be assessed in the pre operative period and randomized into 2 groups: control group and intervention group. The main variables are maximum inspiratory and expiratory muscle strength (MIP and MEP), peak cough flow (PCF) and pain. Control group will perform proposed respiratory physiotherapy, aerobic exercises and use of incentive inspirometry, the intervention group will perform proposed physiotherapy, aerobic exercises and use of Powerbreathe for inspiratory muscle training. Both groups will perform 10 non consecutive face-to-face physiotherapy sessions ( up 30 days before surgery). After the surgical intervention, they will be evaluated on the first and 30th postoperative days in relation to the same variables and pulmonary complications. Statistical Analysis: Sample calculation performed through a previous study: 42 patients per group. After the intervention, they will be evaluated on the second postoperative day for days of hospitalization and pulmonary complications. Statistical Analysis: Sample calculation performed through a previous study: 42 patients per group. After the intervention, they will be evaluated on the second postoperative day for days of hospitalization and pulmonary complications. Statistical Analysis: Sample calculation performed through a previous study: 42 patients per group. Categorical variables will be summarized in absolute and relative frequencies (percentages). Information regarding numerical variables will be expressed as means, standard deviations or medians, and interquartile range, depending on the distribution of the variable. All variables will be tested in relation to their distribution. To analyze the results between groups will be used the mixed linear models and for intragroup analysis, two-way ANOVA (time and group) for the following variables: MIP and MEP, PCF and pain. Expected results: Preoperative inspiratory muscle training can maintain/improve respiratory muscle strength until the moment prior to surgery, thus better preparing the patient for the condition of surgical stress, in addition to decreasing the incidence of pulmonary complications during the hospitalization period and / or in the 30 postoperative days.
The accurate assessment of intraoperative tissue perfusion is essential in any branch of surgery. Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most feared complications following gastrointestinal surgery, with potentially threatening consequences resulting in worsened short- and long-term outcomes. Consistently, a recent meta-analysis showed a correlation between AL and shorter disease-free survival in colorectal surgery. Despite its multifactorial origin, AL is highly related to inadequate visceral perfusion. Traditionally, perfusion assessment and subsequent anastomotic viability have been evaluated by surgeons using intraoperative indicators, such as color, pulsation of vessels, presence of peristalsis and bleeding from the resection lines. However, these clinical parameters are not able to reliably assess the real visceral perfusion and their evaluation is limited in minimally invasive surgery. Hence, the growing interest for innovative techniques able to properly assess tissue perfusion. Among these, the fluorescence angiography (FA) with indocyanine green (ICG) has become increasingly popular during the last decade, although its approval for biomedical purposes by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) dates back to 1956. ICG is an amphiphilic, non-toxic, tricarbocyanine iodide dye that can be safely injected intravenously and is exclusively eliminated by the liver, without any absorption. Thanks to its fluorescent properties, it allows the real-time visualization of tissue vascularization. FA with ICG has shown promising results for the evaluation of perfusion in numerous surgical procedures, thus leading to modifications of the surgical strategy and consequently to a decrease in the rates of AL. On the other hand, ICG interpretation is subjective, based on the evaluation of fluorescence performed by the operating surgeon. These results lack into a high inter-observer variability and affect the possibility to obtain objective, reproducible and reliable tissue perfusion assessments. Quantitative fluorescence angiography with ICG (Q-ICG) could overcome these limitations. In Q-ICG the fluorescence signal is elaborated by a new computer quantification algorithm and translated into a fluorescence-time curve (FTC), from which several Q-ICG parameters and values can be extracted. Given the power of ICG in reflecting the perfusion of examined tissues, a new quantification algorithm has the potential to turn the subjective parameters derived from surgeon's perspective into objective numeric values. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate which Q-ICG values provided by a new quantification algorithm correspond to subjective perfusion parameters usually evaluated by the surgeon in patients undergoing left colon, rectal or esophagogastric resections. The secondary aim is to evaluate possible correlations between Q-ICG values provided by the quantification algorithm and perioperative outcomes.
Tibia shaft fractures are common long bone fractures in the field of Orthopaedic Trauma. In the USA, a total of 492.000 tibial fractures were reported per year by the National Center of Health Statistics (NCHS). Intramedullary nailing (IMN) is the treatment of choice for shaft fractures. However, rotational malalignment (RM) remains an iatrogenic pitfall with a prevalence up to 30%. From a clinical point of view, there is limited knowledge on how to avoid RM during IMN. Clinical estimation of tibial alignment is difficult, resulting frequently in RM following IMN. Low-dose CT-assessment is considered the gold standard to objectify RM, but is performed after surgery when the opportunity for direct revision has passed. Both difficulties in intraoperative clinical judgement of tibial alignment as well as postoperative detection of RM when the possibility for direct revision has passed, do support the need for an easy-to-use intraoperative fluoroscopy protocol to minimize the risk for RM during IMN of tibial shaft fractures. Recently, a standardized intraoperative fluoroscopy protocol named the 'C-Arm Rotational View (CARV)' was determined in order to improve the accuracy of alignment control during IMN of tibial shaft fractures. CARV includes predefined fluoroscopy landmarks of the uninjured side to correct for rotational malalignment of the injured side in which the rotation of the C-Arm Image Intensifier is used. Promising preliminary results were found to reduce the risk on RM following IMN of tibia fractures. However, a prospective trial is needed to determine the performance of CARV in clinical practice. Therefore, a prospective multi-center randomized controlled trial is designed to assess the clinical feasibility and potential benefits of the CARV-protocol. The following primary research question was defined: can the risk for RM following IMN of tibial shaft fractures be minimized by use of the CARV-protocol?
