Filter by:The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after thoracic surgery is as high as 30-50% [1-6], which is the main cause of postoperative morbidity, death and prolonged hospital stay. Optimization of risk factors in PPCs procedures is the focus of current research. Double lumen bronchial tube (DLT) is a commonly used lung isolation method for adult patients. It has the advantages of good lung isolation effect, sufficient exposure of the surgical field and easy to attract secretions in the airway. However, there are still some deficiencies in clinical precise positioning, long-term continuous detection during operation, early detection of catheter displacement and other emergencies. Continuous intra-airway monitoring is the main advantage of visual double-lumen bronchial catheter. It can quickly and easily determine the position of the catheter and quickly adjust the displacement, and timely and effectively clean up the secretion in the airway, which is conducive to the analysis and treatment of intraoperative hypoxemia. Whether these potential advantages can reduce the incidence of PPCs deserves our in-depth discussion. The research group randomly divided the patients who were scheduled to undergo thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer in the Union Hospital affiliated to Fujian Medical University into the test group (lung isolation with visible double-lumen bronchial catheter, continuous intra-airway monitoring and intervention) and the control group: (Pulmonary isolation was performed with visual double-lumen bronchial catheter, and only intra-airway video was performed without monitoring. The effect of continuous intra-airway monitoring under visual double-lumen bronchial catheter on postoperative complications of lung surgery was evaluated by Melbourne evaluation scale.
Post-operative morbidity and mortality is related to many factors related to the patient's condition, the intra-operative period and the optimisation of intra-operative haemodynamic and respiratory parameters. Many studies have looked at the determinants and factors that increase postoperative complications. However, these have been randomised studies looking at one parameter in particular. This analysis would be the first to investigate the determinants of postoperative complications in a large population of patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery. This is a post-hoc analysis of patients included in the OPHIQUE study, whose main objective was to evaluate intraoperative haemodynamic management guided by a marker of tissue hypoperfusion (the respiratory quotient).
Using data from electroencephalogram (EEG) obtained through intraoperative depth of anesthesia monitoring devices, combined with clinical symptoms such as postoperative pain and delirium, investigate their correlation and verify whether intraoperative EEG spectral analysis can predict the occurrence of postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, restlessness, or delirium in patients undergoing surgery.
Introduction: Intraoperative Mechanical Ventilation practices can lead to ventilator-associated lung injury (VILI) and postoperative pulmonary complications in healthy lungs. Mechanical Power has been developed as a new concept in reducing the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications as it takes into account all respiratory mechanics that cause VILI formation. Volume control mode is at the forefront in the old anesthesia devices used in the operating room, and today, together with technology, there are anesthesia devices with many modes and features, as in intensive care units. This causes confusion in the use of mechanical ventilators. In this study, volume and pressure control ventilation modes were compared in terms of respiratory mechanics (including mechanical power) in patients operated in the supine and prone positions. Aim of study: It has been compared the effects on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPH) in terms of VILI risk by calculating mechanical power from advanced respiratory mechanics of patients ventilated in pressure and volume control modes, which are frequently used in operating room applications. Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of demographic data, ariscat score, and ariscat risk group values. The supine and prone mechanical power (MPrs) values of the volume control group were statistically significantly lower than the pressure control group. P values were calculated as 0.012 and 0.001, respectively. Results: Supine and prone MPrs values of the volume control group were calculated significantly lower than the pressure control group. Pressure-controlled intraoperative mechanical ventilation is considered to be disadvantageous in terms of the risk of VILI in the supine and prone position in terms of the current mechanical power concept.
The goal of this study is to develop a novel surgical risk stratification tool designed to adults operated in Brazil. The main question it aims to answer is: •Is the Extended Care (Ex-Care) II model a good tool to assess the risk of death among patients operated in Brazilian hospitals within 30 days after surgery? Information of patients undergoing surgery in the participating hospitals over a period of 24 months will be analyzed to evaluate the relationship of some patients characteristics (called predictors) with the study outcome (probability of death). The sample will be divided in two groups. The first, called derivation sample, will be used for the development of the Ex-Care II model. The second, called validation sample, will evaluate the performance of this new model.
Chronic postoperative pain is one of the common perioperative complications, which seriously affects the prognosis of patients. Currently, no specific perioperative pain management strategy has been found to be effective in preventing and treating chronic postoperative pain in patients undergoing spinal surgery. At present, oxycodone has been widely recognized in different surgical populations for the control of acute postoperative pain, but its contribution to chronic postoperative pain remains unknown. Meanwhile, whether pregabalin can reduce the occurrence of chronic postoperative pain remains controversial, and whether the combination of the two drugs can control the occurrence of chronic postoperative pain in a more comprehensive way remains unknown. Therefore, we intend to conduct this randomized-controlled, factorial design study to determine the efficacy and safety of oxycodone combined with pregabalin in the treatment of chronic postoperative pain in patients undergoing spinal surgery.
Patient perceived quality of recovery is an important outcome after surgery and should be measured in clinical trials. The QoR-15 was designed to measure quality of recovery postoperatively. It provided an efficient evaluation of the postoperative quality of recovery. The primary objectives of this study is validate the Turkish version of QoR-15 questionnaire for emergency laparotomy. The investigators will test its validity, reliability, responsiveness, and clinical acceptability and feasibility, with patients emergency laparotomy, in the University of Health Sciences, Gülhane Education and Training Hospital Ankara, Türkiye.
A lot of different early and late complications may occur after liver transplantation. They could be related to surgical procedure, to infectious diseases or immuno-mediated diseases (acute cellular rejection, ACR). Almost all of those complications are characterized by an elevation in liver enzymes (ALT, AST and GGT) and a decline of liver function tests (serum bilirubin and INR increase) possibly leading to early allograft disfunction (EAD). In this scenario there is a lack of biomarker that could predict the development of ACR and/or EAD. The aim of this study is to explore the prognostic role of non-invasive instrumental and biological marker in the early post-transplant phase.
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate patients who are planning to administer sugammadex after rocuronium or vecuronium is used. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Prescription pattern of sugammadex 2. Effectiveness and safety of sugammadex Since this study is observational, only data generated under daily treatment are to be collected, and no additional tests or drug administration is conducted for the study. The patients are observed from baseline to 24 hours after the initial administration of sugammadex.
The goal of this randomized, double blinded study is to examine in children whether postoperative agitation can be reduced. The main question it aims to answer is Will optimized, monitor guided analgesic treatment and dexmedetomidine reduce postoperative agitation Participants will receive a standard anaesthesia regimen and on top of that, a titrable remifentanil infusion guided via Mdoloris Anastasia nociception index (ANI) monitor will be added. Additionally, the patients will receive either bolus placebo or bolus dexmedetomidine. The postoperative agitation measured via the Richmond agitation and sedation scale (RASS) score, will be compared. Secondary outcome measures including carbon dioxide trends will be made.
