Filter by:The objective of this study was to investigate the difference in postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) between spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia in patients undergoing delayed hip surgery.
Postoperative pulmonary complications are serious threat to surgical patients, especially to high-risk geriatric patients. There is evidence that laryngeal mask airway is associated with postoperative pulmonary complications in comparison with tracheal intubation. However, conclusion may reverse among frail population such as high-risk geriatric patients. Geriatric patients are often associated with loose mask seal due to physiological changes, which may increase chances of aspiration and pose challenges to intraoperative airway maintenance. It was reported that laryngeal mask airway causes more atelectasis among children, but no report among high-risk elderly. The investigators therefore propose this study to verify the non-inferior effect of laryngeal mask airway compared to tracheal intubation on postoperative pulmonary complications among high-risk geriatric patients undergoing elective non-cardiothoracic surgeries.
This study investigates the relationship between intraoperative mechanical power and postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. We record mechanical ventilation parameters and surgical characteristics, assessing the incidence of pulmonary complications within 24 hours postoperatively
The goal of this observational study is to compare the, ARISCAT and LAS VEGUS scales, for predicting postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The study aims to compare the diagnostic accuracies of the two risk prediction scores in predicting postoperative pulmonary complications.
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are common in children undergoing general anesthesia and are associated with prolonged stay in the hospital and high costs. Development of PPCs is associated with ventilator settings in adult patients undergoing general anesthesia. Data on perioperative ventilator settings in children are lacking, leaving the anaesthetist without guidance. Consequently, the current standard of care in perioperative mechanical ventilation in children is expected to be extremely heterogeneous, leading to ventilation with higher levels of energy than necessary. Therefore, it is highly necessary to evaluate the current practice in perioperative ventilation in children and to determine associations with PPCs.
Postoperative pulmonary complications are common and lead to increased morbidity and mortality in patients. These complications are observed especially after major surgical interventions. Breathing exercises performed with or without the use of a device are extremely important in preventing postoperative pulmonary complications. Breathing exercises that increase total lung capacity by encouraging the use of the diaphragm reverse alveolar collapse and postoperative hypoxemia. This study aim to determine the effect of postoperative respiratory exercise diary use in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery on dyspnea, fatigue, respiratory parameters (respiratory rate, SPO2, cough, sputum), early pulmonary complications, spirometry use and functional capacity.The research is planned to be conducted in a single-blind, randomized controlled manner. In the study, 60 patients (30 intervention and 30 control) who underwent major abdominal surgery will be included.Data will be collected using the Patient Introduction Form, Visual Analogue Scale, Medical Research Board Scale, 2-minute walk test, breathing exercise diary and patient follow-up chart.Patients in the intervention and control groups will be visited by the researcher for 3 postoperative days, respiratory parameters, cough, and sputum status will be recorded in the patient follow-up chart, and the use of a respiratory exercise diary will be evaluated.
Colorectal cancer is a common digestive tract tumor in China. At present, laparoscopic surgery has become the classic operation of colorectal cancer surgery compared with the traditional open abdominal surgery. Although laparoscopic surgery has many advantages, such as less pain, faster recovery and so on. However, relevant studies have shown that postoperative pulmonary complications are more common in patients undergoing Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery, which contribute to significant increases in morbidity, mortality, length of postoperative hospital stay and medical consumption. The incidence of pulmonary complications after abdominal surgery has been reported to be between 9% and 40%. The reduction in pulmonary volume and respiratory muscular activation after major abdominal surgery due to surgery-related shallow breathing, pain, long-term bed rest, mucociliary clearance disorder, and diaphragmatic dysfunction may be the main causes of postoperative pulmonary complications. Numerous studies have demonstrated physiological improvement related to prone positioning. Prone positioning consists of placing a patient face down. Prone positioning has been used for to improve oxygenation in patients who require invasive mechanical ventilation for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It has also been applied to non-intubated patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF), to improve oxygenation and delay or even avoid the need for invasive ventilation. So, the purpose of this study is to observe whether preoperative prone position training can reduce the incidence of pulmonary complications after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.
The goal of this multicenter randomized controlled trial is to explore the efficacy of perioperative oral decontamination and immunonutrition supplement to prevent postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients(≥65 years) receiving elective non-cardiac operations. Participants will be either given immunonutrition supplement versus routine nutrition advice, and oral chlorhexidine decontamination versus routine oral care randomly. The two interventions will be compared with control groups separately regarding postoperative pulmonary complications and other outcomes.
Respiratory muscle dysfunction may contribute to the development of postoperative pulmonary complications. However, it prevalence in patients receiving neurosurgery is largely unknown. Therefore, in present study, respiratory muscle function (measured by the ultrasound) and their correlation with the post-operative pulmonary complications will be analyzed.
The investigators designed a protocol for a Bayesian unplanned posthoc analysis using the pooled dataset from three large randomized clinical trials. The primary endpoint will be a composite of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC) within the first seven postoperative days, which reflects the primary endpoint of the original studies. The investigators will carry out a reanalysis of the harmonised database using Bayesian statistics.
