Filter by:The term obesity is defined as body mass index (BMI) 30 and over, and morbid obesity is considered as BMI greater than 40 (1).Its incidence in the general population is approximately 20% according to Organisation for data of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries and unfortunately, it is increasing worldwide (2). Obesity should not be thought ofas a single disorderasit is related tomany disorders like hypertension, diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, cardiovascular diseases, and increased risk of malignancies (1).For years people have struggled with obesitywithboth metabolic and physical problems. Surgical treatment is the most effective long-term therapeutic treatment in current and modern medicine of obesity and obesity-related diseases as the last resort.(3-5). Roux-en-y gastrojejunostomy is the method that has been applied for many years and there isconsensus on its effect.However, in recent years, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has an increasing number of procedures with a short learning curve and it is the most performed surgical technique all over the world and also in Turkey (2,6). Unfortunately, like any surgical procedure, this surgery has its own complications.Although being performed frequently increases the experience of surgeons, this situation cannot reduce the risk of complications of surgery to zero. In morbid obesity patients, the risk of any complications in all surgical procedures is higher than withother patients who were not morbidly obese. Due to these complications, prolonged hospital stays, increased reapplications to the hospital, reoperations and deaths can result(5,7). Despite both an increased risk of complications according to obesity and the risk of specific complications due to sleeve gastrectomy, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is associated with acceptable postoperative morbidity and mortality rates (8). Various classifications have been described in the literature for complications after surgery.In one of these classifications, according to Clavien-Dindo (CD) Classification, complications are divided into two groups as major and minor. (1, 9)(Table 1). This classification can be applied to bariatric and metabolic surgeries as withall surgery types. Especially major complications in this classification are life-threatening situations and their early detection is important (8). In fact, surgeons do not want to encounter mortality in any of their patients. In this respect, DeMaria et al. developed an easily applicable mortality risk scoring system, which is consisted of five items (age ≥45 years, male sex, body mass index (BMI) ≥ 50 kg / m2, arterial hypertension, and risk factors for pulmonary thromboembolism) and can be used for the pre-operative determination of risky patients in obesity surgery(Obesity Surgery Mortality Risk Score; OR-MRS) (8,10,11). In this study, it is aimed to determine the perioperative complications seen in the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy patients that we performed in our clinic without being discharged from the hospital and to evaluate the treatment processes of the complications under literature. In addition, whether the OS-MRS risk assessment scale and BMI had a role indetermining perioperative complications before discharge was investigated.
The Post discharge after surgery Virtual Care with Remote Automated Monitoring technology (PVC-RAM) Trial is a multicentre, parallel group, superiority, randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of virtual care with remote automated monitoring (RAM) technology compared to standard care on days alive at home during the 30-day follow-up after randomization, in adults who have undergone semi-urgent (e.g., oncology), urgent (e.g., hip fracture), or emergency (e.g., ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm) surgery. It will also determine, during the first 30 days, the effect of virtual care with RAM technology on several secondary outcomes, including: 1. hospital re-admission; 2. emergency department visit; 3. urgent-care centre visit; 4. acute-hospital care (i.e., a composite of hospital re-admission and emergency department or urgent-care centre visit) 5. brief acute-hospital care (i.e., acute-hospital care that lasts <24 hours); 6. all-cause hospital days; 7. medication error detection; 8. medication error correction; and 9. death. An additional secondary objective is to determine the effect of virtual care with RAM technology on pain at 7, 15, and 30 days and 6 months after randomization.
A randomised controlled trial study consisting of two-group pretest-post-test.
Perioperative hypothermia is one of the most common anaesthetic complications, increasing the morbidity/mortality of our patients. Active prewarming with hot forced-air devices has demonstrated to be the most effective tool to prevent hypothermia, but its use is only recommended in long-term surgeries and the optimal prewarming duration has not been elucidated. Both spinal anaesthesia associated to the irrigation with liquids at low temperature instilled during transurethral resection (TUR) cause a decrease in the core temperature of the patient. This is a clinical trial comparing different time periods of prewarming in patients submitted to undergo elective transurethral resection. Our aim is to assess the effect of different time-periods of prewarming on preventing perioperative hypothermia during TUR with spinal anaesthesia. Investigators will compare different time periods: 0 minutes (control group), 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 45 minutes. 200 patients are going to be included in this study (50 patients in each group). Measurement of temperature will be performed using a tympanic thermometer and zero-heat-flux temperature sensor. Patients will be followed throughout their hospital admission. Data will be recorded using a validated instrument and will be analysed using the statistics program R Core Team.
This study compares 2 different ways of perioperative management in patients of peptic perforation. Experimental arm is the ERAS arm( Enhanced recovery after surgery) and the comparative arm is Conventional arm.
This study evaluated to the effects of a glycaemic control protocol directed by nurses during the perioperative period on glycaemic outcomes in diabetic patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. The study was conducted at the department of general surgery of a research and training hospital.The study included 47 patients who underwent elective major abdominal surgery between September 2017 and December 2018. The number of patients in the intervention and the control groups was 22 and 25, respectively. The glycemia control protocol will be used in the glycemia management of intervention group,routine glycemia management will be used in the control group.
Amongst patients who are discharged home from hospital on the same day as their elective Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty, the Investigators seek to quantify the incidence of return to hospital within 30 days of surgery for assessment &/or treatment of surgical related problems or complications. This incidence rate will be compared to a cohort of patients who are not discharged on the same day as their Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty. The Investigators wish to know if the incidence of 30 day return to hospital is significantly different between these two groups of patients.
Perioperative Acute Hypersensitivity (PAH) is a systemic reaction that occurs rapidly following injection of a drug during anesthesia.The HSA-PA reaction must occur within a maximum of one hour after the induction of anesthesia or a new product by the anesthetist. The main mechanism evoked is an immune response of immediate systemic hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis. Anaphylactic reactions are classically described as IgE-dependent and triggered by the injection of allergen which by bridging specific IgE present on the surface of mast cells, induces a massive release of histamine responsible for the observed symptoms. The diagnosis of this mechanism (IgE endotype) requires the determination of associated circulating mediators (histamine and mast cell tryptase) as well as skin tests performed during an allergologic evaluation. However, our previous work on patients with PAH (NASA study, ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01637220) demonstrated that classical markers of IgE endotype are present in only 42% of patients. This finding has three consequences: - a diagnostic inaccuracy with deleterious consequences for the patient, - the existence of undocumented endotypes explaining the observed clinical manifestations, - a lack of formal identification of culprit drug, with uncertainty about the eviction recommendations leading to consequences for the safety of the patient. The investigators hypothesize that symptoms associated with PAH are caused by several distinct endotypes involving different cellular effectors and molecular mediators. These endotypes may be related to the immune system but independent of IgE, or independent of the immune system. To assess these endotypes, The investigators will be measuring the activation status of blood cells and a wide range of secreted mediators in blood drawn as soon as possible after PAH onset, and at steady state during a subsequent allergology visit. These data will be analyzed along with clinical data in multivariate analysis and clustering to define coherent profiles among patients. Definition of previously unexplored endotypes will allow to explain more PAH reactions and to design new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. During the ENDOPHEN protocol, the measurement of a large number of biological parameters will be correlated with the clinical phenotype in patients who have presented a PAH. However, the procedures of general anesthesia themselves lead to a certain number of physiological modifications likely to modify the parameters measured in the ENDOPHEN protocol. This is why it was decided to carry out an ancillary study, the PHENZERO study, the objective of which is to measure the reference values of the parameters provided for in ENDOPHEN in an anesthetized population without any hypersensitivity phenotype ("zero" phenotype).
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant complication following non-cardiac surgery. We sought to evaluate incidence of perioperative MI, its preoperative - and intraoperative - risk factors and outcomes after this complication.
This study will validate the utility of a novel frailty index that uses ICD diagnoses to call frailty severity in a surgical cohort of patients 65 and older
