Protocolo de extubación ultra-fast track tras cirugía cardiovascular: predictores de fracaso y resultados

ObjectivesIdentifying independent predictor factors of failure of ultra-fast track (UFT) extubation and to compare in-hospital outcomes with UFT extubation versus fast track (FT) extubation after cardiovascular surgery in adults.Material and methodsRetrospective analysis of 1,498 consecutive patients aged over 18 years-old undergoing cardiovascular surgery at a single institution. Between December 2014 and December 2016, FT extubation was used (N = 713) while, between December 2016 and December 2018, all patients were preoperatively considered suitable for UFT extubation (N = 785). In this instance, a standardized anaesthetic protocol was applied in all cases. The decision to not extubate in the operating room (OR) was based on intraoperative haemodynamic and ventilation.ResultsExtubation in the OR was possible in 699 (89%) patients. Significant independent predictors factors of UFT extubation failure were: preoperative NYHA class III-IV, myocardial infarction within two days prior to surgery, preoperative intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation, urgent/emergent surgery, intraoperative transfusion of platelets and intraoperative inotropic and vasopressor support. UFT extubation was associated with lower rates of cardiovascular complications such as congestive cardiac insufficiency (OR: 1,57; 95% CI: 1,13-2,19; P = 0,008) and new-onset postoperatory atrial fibrillation (OR: 1,40; 95% CI: 1,06-1,86; P = 0,020). Patient extubated in the OR presented lower risk of overall complications, shorter intensive care unit stay and higher short-term survival, although, no statistically significance was found when performing the multivariate adjustment.ConclusionsA routine immediate extubation in the OR following adult cardiovascular surgery is a feasible and safe practice, associated with low cardiovascular morbidity.     

Development of a trail running injury screening instrument: A multiple methods approach

ObjectiveTo develop a trail running injury screening instrument (TRISI) for utilisation as clinical decision aid in determining if a trail runner is at an increased risk for injury.DesignMultiple methods approach.MethodsThe study utilised five phases 1) identification of injury risk factors 2) determining the relevance of each identified risk factor in a trail running context, 3) creating the content of the Likert scale points from 0 to 4, 4) rescaling the Likert scale points to determine numerical values for the content of each Likert scale point, and 5) determining a weighted score for each injury risk factor that contributes to the overall combined composite score.ResultsOf the 77 identified injury risk factors, 26 were deemed relevant in trail running. The weighted score for each injury risk factor ranged from 2.21 to 5.53 with the highest calculated score being 5.53. The final TRISI includes risk categories of training, running equipment, demographics, previous injury, behavioural, psychological, nutrition, chronic disease, physiological, and biomechanical factors.ConclusionThe developed TRISI aims to assist the clinician during pre-race injury screening or during a training season to identify meaningful areas to target in designing injury risk management strategies and/or continuous health education.     

Development of a new tool for predicting the behavior of individuals with intellectual disability in the dental office: A pilot study

BackgroundThe dental treatment of individuals with intellectual disability can represent a considerable professional challenge.ObjectiveTo develop a model for predicting the behavior of patients with intellectual disability in the dental office.MethodsThe study group comprised 250 patients with Down syndrome (DS), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), cerebral palsy (CP), idiopathic cognitive impairment or rare disorders. We collected their demographic, medical, social and behavioral information and identified potential predictors (chi-squared test). We developed stratified models (Akaike information criterion) to anticipate the patients'behavior during intraoral examinations and to discern whether the dental treatment should be performed under general anesthesia. These models were validated in a new study group consisting of 80 patients. Goodness of fit was quantified with sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). We developed a mathematical algorithm for executing the models and developed software for its practical implementation (PREdictors of BEhavior in Dentistry, “PREBED”).ResultsFor patients with DS, ASD and CP, the model predicting the need for physical restraint during examination achieved a PPV of 0.90, 0.85 and 1.00, respectively, and an NPV of 0.66, 0.76 and 1.00, respectively. The model predicting the need for performing treatment under general anesthesia achieved a PPV of 0.63, 1.00 and 1.00, respectively, and an NPV of 1.00, 1.00 and 0.73, respectively. However, when validating the stratified models, the percentage of poorly classified individuals (false negatives + false positives) ranged from 24% to 46.6%.ConclusionsThe results of the PREBED tool open the door to establishing new models implementing other potentially predictive variables.     

Time-interval to adjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative management after upper abdominal surgical procedures in advanced ovarian cancer

IntroductionIn advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), longer time-interval from surgery to initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy (TITC) is associated with decreased survival. Adding upper abdominal surgical procedures (UAP) increases rates of both complete gross resection and postoperative complications in EOC. Our objective was to investigate the association of UAP and TITC. Moreover, if specific postoperative monitoring after the most prevalent UAP increases early detection and management of complications.Material and methodsWomen diagnosed with EOC 2014–2016 in the Stockholm/Gotland Region in Sweden were identified in the Swedish Quality Registry for Gynaecologic Cancer. The association between UAP and TITC was investigated by multivariable linear regression and adjusted for predefined confounders. The follow-up and detection of postoperative complications after diaphragm resection, splenectomy and cholecystectomy was examined.Results240 women were selected for analysis. The TITC in women subjected to UAP was similar with a median of 30 days (p = 0.99). Moreover, despite a higher rate of postoperative and major complications (p < 0.001) and longer hospital stay (p < 0.001), in the adjusted analysis there was no association between UAP and prolonged TITC, with a mean difference of −2.27 days (95% Confidence Interval (CI), −5.99 to −1.45, p = 0.23). After the most prevalent UAP (diaphragm resection, splenectomy and cholecystectomy), eventual postoperative interventions were based on routine clinical management rather than procedure-specific postoperative surveillance.ConclusionUAP does not prolong TITC despite an increased rate of postoperative complications and longer length of hospital stay. Clinical non-specific surveillance is sufficient to detect postoperative complications after the most prevalent UAP.     

Prognostic impact of conservative surgery for pancreatic IPMNs

BackgroundThe extent of pancreatic resection for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) remains an unresolved issue. The study aims at analyzing the prognostic impact of conservative surgery (CS) i.e. of pancreatoduodenectomy or distal pancreatectomy, versus total pancreatectomy (TP), for pancreatic IPMNs.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed and compared data of patients who had undergone pancreatic resection for IPMNs at our center between November 2007 and April 2019. Patients were divided into two main groups based on the extent of surgery: TP-group and CS-group. Subsequently, the perioperative and the long-term outcomes were compared. Moreover, a sub-group analysis of patients with IPMN alone and patients with malignant IPMN, based on preoperative indications to surgery and post-operative histopathological findings, was also performed.ResultsFifty-three patients were included in the TP-group and 73 in the CS-group. In 50 (39.7%) cases the frozen section changed the pre-operative surgical planning, with an extension of the pancreatic resection, in 43 (34.1%) cases up to a total pancreatectomy. Twenty-six patients (20.6%) with low-grade dysplasia at the frozen section underwent CS, while twenty (15.8%) underwent TP. Comparing these two sub-groups no differences were found in surgical IPMN recurrence, nor progression. The rate of overall postoperative complications was 56.6% in the TP-group and 57.5% in the CS-group (p = 0.940). Fifteen patients (20.5%) developed diabetes in the CS-group.None of the patients treated with CS developed a surgical IPMN recurrence or progression during the follow-up period. Comparing OS and DFS of the two groups, we did not find any statistically significant difference (p = 0.619 and 0.315).ConclusionA timely CS can be considered an appropriate and valid strategy in the surgical treatment of the majority of pancreatic IPMNs, as it can avoid the serious long-term metabolic consequences of TP in patients with a long-life expectancy. On the contrary, TP remains mandatory in case of PDAC or high-risk features involving the entire gland.
