BACKGROUND: Blood transfusion with cardiac surgery accounts for 20% of transfusions in the United States. The effect of perioperative transfusion on cardiac surgery outcomes is unknown. We hypothesized that cardiac surgery with perioperative blood transfusion was associated with worse outcomes. METHODS: A prospectively maintained (Society of Thoracic Surgeons) institutional database was analyzed from 2000 to 2005. All patients undergoing coronary artery bypass and/or valve operations were evaluated for the association of preoperative and intraoperative risk factors with blood transfusion. The association of transfusion with postoperative complications and mortality was evaluated. RESULTS: During the study period, 2691 patients met inclusion criteria. Sixty-four percent received transfusions. Preoperative risk factors associated with transfusion (p < 0.05) were lung disease, elevated creatinine, peripheral vascular disease, and previous cardiac interventions. Patients requiring transfusion were older (mean 65.2 vs. 61.2 years, p < 0.001). Transfusion was associated with longer cross-clamp (median 78 vs. 88 minutes, p < 0.001) and perfusion times (median 114 vs. 128 minutes, p < 0.001). Perioperative blood transfusion was associated with increased postoperative complications (53.5% vs. 30.5%, p < 0.001). Significant transfusion-associated complications were renal failure, prolonged ventilation time, pneumonia, cardiac arrest, gastrointestinal complications, atrial fibrillation, stroke, myocardial infarction, and bleeding requiring reoperation. Blood transfusion was associated with an increased operative mortality (3.4% vs. 1.7%, p = 0.005) and length of stay after surgery (median 6 vs. 5 days p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Identification and management of risk factors associated with transfusion may reduce the transfusion requirement, minimize perioperative complications and improve outcomes. Bloodless cardiac surgery is associated with a decreased morbidity and mortality. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this report is to analyze factors affecting morbidity and mortality after pneumonectomy for malignant disease. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the cases of all patients who underwent pneumonectomy for malignancy at the Mayo Clinic. Between January 1, 1985, and September 30, 1998, 639 patients (469 men and 170 women) were identified. Median age was 64 years (range 20 to 86 years). Indication for pneumonectomy was primary lung cancer in 607 (95.0%) patients and metastatic disease in 32 (5.0%). Factors affecting morbidity and mortality were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis. RESULTS: Cardiopulmonary complications occurred in 245 patients (38.3%; 95% confidence interval 34.6%-42.2%). Factors adversely affecting morbidity with univariate analysis included age (P <.0001), male sex (P =.04), associated respiratory (P =.02) or cardiovascular disease (P <.0001), cigarette smoking (P =.02), decreased vital capacity (P =.01), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (P <.0001), forced vital capacity (P =.002), diffusion capacity of the lung to carbon monoxide (P =.005), oxygen saturation (P <.05), arterial PO (2) (P =.007), preoperative radiation (P =.02), bronchial stump reinforcement (P =.007), crystalloid infusion (P =.01), and blood transfusion (P =.02). Factors adversely affecting morbidity with multivariate analysis included age (P =.0001), associated cardiovascular disease (P =.001), and bronchial stump reinforcement (P =.0005). There were 45 deaths (7.0%; 95% confidence intervals 5.2%-9.3%). Factors adversely affecting mortality with univariate analysis included associated cardiovascular (P <.0001) or hematologic disease (P <.005), lower preoperative serum hemoglobin level (P =.004), preoperative chemotherapy (P =.01), decreased diffusion capacity of lung to carbon monoxide (P =.002), right pneumonectomy (P =.0006), extended resection (P =.04), bronchial stump reinforcement (P =.007), and crystalloid infusion (P =.01). Factors affecting mortality with multivariate analysis included hematologic disease (P =.01), lower preoperative serum hemoglobin (P =.003), and completion pneumonectomy (P =.01). CONCLUSION: Multiple factors adversely affected morbidity and mortality after pneumonectomy for malignant disease. Appropriate selection and meticulous perioperative care are paramount to minimize risks in those patients who require pneumonectomy. 相似文献

Immediate postoperative extubation may reduce the incidence of postoperative respiratory complications after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). We evaluated the predictors of immediate tracheal extubation in the operating room (OR) in our patients by retrospectively reviewing data from all patients who underwent OLT between January 2004 and June 2006. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they had undergone extubation in the OR (group 1 n=52) or in the intensive care unit (ICU; group 2 n=48). When compared with the patients in group 2, those in group 1 had lower mean preoperative serum creatinine levels (0.9 +/- 1 vs 0.6 +/- 0.3 mg/dL, P=.04) and intraoperative transfusion requirements (packed red blood cells, 35.5 +/- 29.8 vs 25.6 +/- 19.0 mL/kg; P=.05, and fresh frozen plasma, 33.1 +/- 15.6 vs 25.7 +/- 14.3 mL/kg; P=.01). The incidence of intraoperative hypotension and emergent OLT was significantly greater in group 2 than group 1 (33.3% vs 13.5%, P=.01 and 45.8% vs 21.2%, respectively, P=.009). On logistic regression analysis, only emergent OLT (P=.009, odds ratio = 3.5) and intraoperative hypotension (P=.018, odds ratio = 3.7) were significantly associated with a lower probability of immediate postoperative extubation in the OR. Our results suggested that hemodynamic stability and elective OLT were predictors of successful immediate tracheal extubation in the OR. 相似文献

AbstractDual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel, ticagrelor, or prasugrel) reduces thrombotic events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), but it is also associated with an increased risk of bleeding complications. Excessive bleeding in cardiac surgery patients is associated with increased morbidity and mortality and high costs. In this review, different aspects of platelet inhibition in cardiac surgery patients will be discussed, including direct effects on bleeding and transfusion requirements, discontinuation and reinstitution of antiplatelet drugs before and after surgery, and the use of perioperative platelet function testing. 相似文献

Impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on elective and emergency abdominal aortic aneurysm repair 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

OBJECTIVE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) expansion and is considered by some to be a relative contraindication to conventional aortic surgery. This study was undertaken to determine if COPD increases operative death, morbidity, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS), and hospital LOS, after AAA repair. METHODS: Data from national administrative records supplemented with laboratory data previously obtained for a system-wide study were analyzed in a retrospective review of 1053 consecutive patients (264 with and 789 without COPD) undergoing operation for intact or ruptured AAAs in Veterans Administration Hospitals from 1997 to 1998. Bivariate comparisons and multivariate regression were used to evaluate the impact of COPD on the number of days of ventilation, ICU LOS, total hospital LOS, and death, while controlling for other known risk factors, including acute myocardial infarction, renal failure, and age. RESULTS: The mortality rate in elective aneurysm patients did not differ (P =.99) between patients with (3.7%) or without COPD (3.7%). However, elective AAA repair was associated with longer hospital LOS (14.4 vs 12.3 days, P =.01), longer ICU LOS (6.5 vs 5.4 days, P =.01), and a higher incidence of requiring 96 hours or more ventilation (6.9% vs 3.6%, P =.02) in patients with COPD. Ruptured AAA affected 4.9% of patients and was strongly associated with COPD (P =.02); however, COPD did not result in a statistically significant increase in death (P =.25). CONCLUSIONS: Although COPD does not appear to increase operative death, it is associated with an increased risk of rupture. Elective repair of AAA should not be deferred in patients with COPD despite their higher LOSs and need for postoperative ventilation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Although improved outcomes for selected patients by elimination of cardiopulmonary bypass have been demonstrated, a benefit for all patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting by all surgeons has yet to be definitively proved. METHODS: We reviewed our experience with beating-heart surgery from its inception in January 1995 through December 2000. A total of 12,540 patients underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting, including 1915 procedures (15%) performed without cardiopulmonary bypass. Groups were compared by univariate analysis for preoperative risk factors and postoperative complications, and predicted risk was determined by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons risk algorithm. RESULTS: There was a gradual increase in the percentage of coronary operations performed off pump, from 1.2% in 1995 to 34.1% in 2000. Individual surgeon adoption rates ranged from 1% to 96% by 2000. There was a decrease in mortality to 3.22%, compared with an overall observed mortality rate of 4.0% in the 5 years before beating-heart surgery (P =.0482). There was a significant difference in observed mortality between the off-pump and on-pump groups (1.9% vs 3.5%, P <.001), despite a higher mean predicted risk among the patients in the off-pump group (3.13% vs 2.8%, P <.004). Additionally, decreased morbidity in the off-pump group was evidenced by reduced needs for blood products (28.45% vs 54.65%, P =.0001), prolonged ventilation (5.83% vs 10.93%, P =.001), and reoperation for bleeding (2.41% vs 3.65%, P =.0237), and by shorter hospital stay (5.98 vs 7.32 days, P =.001). CONCLUSIONS: Beating-heart surgery can be safely assimilated into a cardiac surgical practice, although adoption rates vary significantly among individual surgeons. Gradual integration can lead to improved outcomes in the total coronary artery bypass surgery population. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the cardiopulmonary morbidity and mortality rates after endovascular abdominal aortic aneurysm (EAAA) repair with local anesthesia (LA) with intravenous sedation versus general anesthesia (GA). METHODS: Data from patients who underwent elective infrarenal EAAA repair between June 1996 and October 2000 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with two or more Eagle clinical cardiac risk factors were considered to be at increased risk for a major postoperative cardiac event. Univariate and multivariate analyses for major cardiac and pulmonary morbidity and mortality rates were analyzed with respect to anesthetic type (GA versus LA), age, size of aneurysm, mean number of Eagle risk factors, and presence of two or more cardiac risk factors. RESULTS: Two hundred twenty-nine patients underwent EAAA repair. The GA (158 patients) and LA (71 patients) groups were significantly different with respect to mean age (73 versus 76 years; P =.01) and mean number of cardiac risk factors per patient (1.2 versus 1.6; P =.002). No difference was seen in the overall cardiopulmonary complication rate (13% for GA and 19% for LA; P =.3), pulmonary complication rate (3.8% for GA and 7% for LA; P =.3), or cardiopulmonary mortality rate (3.2% for GA and 2.8% for LA; P =.9). The major cardiac event rate was higher in patients with two or more Eagle risk factors (22%) versus those patients with one or less Eagle risk factors (3.4%; P <.001), irrespective of anesthetic type. In analysis of patients with one or less Eagle risk factors, no difference was seen in the major cardiac event rate by anesthetic type (3% for GA and 5% for LA; P =.6). Also, no difference was seen in major cardiac events in patients with two or more Eagle risk factors by anesthetic type (24% for GA and 22% for LA). On multivariate analysis, the mean number of Eagle risk factors per patient (P <.0001) and the presence of two or more Eagle risk factors were associated with major cardiac and cardiopulmonary complications, whereas age, size of AAA, and anesthetic type were not. CONCLUSION: No difference exists in overall cardiac and pulmonary morbidity and mortality rates after EAAA repair in comparison of GA and LA. The presence of two or more preoperative cardiac risk factors significantly increases the risk of a major postoperative cardiac event. 相似文献

Perioperative complications and early outcome after endovascular and open surgical repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

BACKGROUND: Open repair (OR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) is a major surgical procedure with elevated morbidity and a low but definite mortality. Advocates of endovascular repair (EVAR) claim decreased complication rates and outcome equal to OR. METHODS: Data of all patients with infrarenal AAA that was treated electively, both with OR and EVAR, at Mayo Clinic Rochester between December 1, 1999 and December 1, 2001 were retrospectively reviewed. Thirty-day morbidity and mortality and early clinical outcomes were assessed and compared. RESULTS: Three hundred fifty-five patients underwent treatment: 261 patients, including 229 males and 32 females (mean age: 73 years; range: 52 to 90 years) underwent OR, and 94 patients including 85 males and 9 females (mean age: 77 years; range: 61 to 98 years) underwent EVAR (AneuRx: 53, Ancure: 38, Endologix: 3). Median AAA size was 57 mm in both groups. There were more high-risk patients in the EVAR group (27% vs 14%, P =.007). Thirty-day mortality rates were 1.1 % (3/261) for OR and 0 for EVAR (P = NS). Cardiac and pulmonary complications were less frequent after EVAR (11% vs 22%, P =.02, and 3% vs 16%, P =.001, respectively), but graft-related complications were more frequent (13% vs 4%, P =.002). The association between type of repair and cardiac, pulmonary, and graft complications remained statistically significant after adjusting for age, gender, and high-risk status. The multivariate odds ratios (EVAR vs OR) for cardiac, pulmonary, and graft complications were 0.35 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.17 to 0.74), 0.14 (95% CI: 0.04 to 0.47), and 3.81 (95% CI: 1.51 to 9.58), respectively. Primary and secondary patency and freedom-from-reintervention rates at 1 year were lower after EVAR (83% vs 98%, P <.001; 96% vs 99%, P =.02; 65% vs 93%, P <.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Both elective OR and EVAR can be performed with low mortality, but cardiac and pulmonary complications are less frequent and less severe after EVAR. The tradeoff of EVAR is a higher rate of graft-related complications, with more reinterventions and a lower graft patency rate at 1 year. These results should be considered before EVAR is offered to patients with AAA. 相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: The adverse cardiac event rate following endoluminal abdominal aortic aneurysm (EAAA) repair has decreased as experience in performing the procedure has increased. Aneurysm complexity affects the rate of adverse cardiac events. DESIGN AND PATIENTS: Data from 173 consecutive patients undergoing EAAA repair from 2 successive periods were compared. There were 82 patients in the early group (group 1) and 91 patients in the later group (group 2). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, unstable angina, major dysrhythmias, death. RESULTS: The cardiac event rate was 8.5% for group 1 vs 16.5% for group 2 (P =.16). Predictors of adverse cardiac events on multivariate analysis were the use of 4 or more graft extensions (P =.04), female sex (P =.01), and number of Eagle risk factors (P<.001). There were 2 postoperative deaths (2.4%) in group 1 and 4 (4.4%) in group 2 (P =.7). CONCLUSIONS: Following EAAA repair: (1) adverse cardiac events were found to correlate with use of 4 or more graft extensions, female sex, and the number of Eagle risk factors; (2) cardiac morbidity and mortality remain significant despite greater experience and improved technology; and (3) operative mortality remains acceptably low. 相似文献

HYPOTHESIS: The diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) carries significant additional morbidity and mortality among critically injured patients. DESIGN: Retrospective case-control study using a prospectively maintained ARDS database. SETTING: Surgical intensive care unit (ICU) in an academic county hospital. PATIENTS: All trauma patients admitted to the ICU from January 1, 2000, to December 31, 2003, who developed ARDS as defined by (1) acute onset, (2) a partial pressure of arterial oxygen-fraction of inspired oxygen ratio of 200 or less, (3) bilateral pulmonary infiltrates on chest radiographs, and (4) absence of left-sided heart failure. Each patient with ARDS was matched with 2 control patients without ARDS on the basis of sex, age (+/-5 years), mechanism of injury (blunt or penetrating), Injury Severity Score (+/-3), and chest Abbreviated Injury Score (+/-1). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Mortality, hospital charges, hospital and ICU lengths of stay, and complications (defined as pneumonia, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, acute renal failure, and disseminated intravascular coagulopathy). RESULTS: Of 2042 trauma ICU admissions, 216 patients (10.6%) met criteria for ARDS. We identified 432 similarly injured control patients. Compared with controls, trauma patients with ARDS had more complications (43.1% vs 9.5%), longer hospital (32.2 vs 17.9 days) and ICU (22.1 vs 8.4 days) lengths of stay, and higher hospital charges (267,037 dollars vs 136,680 dollars) (P < .01 for all), but mortality was similar (27.8% vs 25.0%, P = .48). CONCLUSION: Although ARDS is associated with increased morbidity, hospital and ICU length of stay, and costs, it does not increase overall mortality among critically ill trauma patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although many randomized trials and other multicenter studies have demonstrated the benefits of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in selected symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, several investigators have noted an increased rate of perioperative neurologic and cardiac morbidity in diabetic patients. To compare the perioperative outcome of CEA in diabetic patients (group I) versus nondiabetic patients (group II), we analyzed a consecutive series of CEAs performed by the same vascular surgeon at the same institution. METHODS: Data collection was prospective for all CEA procedures performed between August 1, 1992 and March 31, 1999. Group I and group II were matched for clinical presentation, percentage of internal carotid artery stenosis and indication for surgery. RESULTS: of 547 CEAs performed in 474 patients, 199 (36.4%) were in group I. Group I was younger at presentation than group II (P <.005) and women were in a higher proportion in group I than in group II (43.7% vs 27.1%, P =.0001). Although the incidence of peripheral atherosclerotic disease was comparable in the 2 groups, there was a significantly higher incidence of previous vascular surgery in group I (P =.01). Perioperative neurologic and cardiac morbidity rates were comparable in the 2 groups. The overall perioperative mortality rate was 0.5%. Long-term information was obtained in all patients (mean, 44 months; range, 1 to 75 months). No differences were found in the recurrent stenosis and occlusion rates between the 2 groups. Although there was no difference in the late mortality between the 2 groups, diabetic patients had a significantly higher cardiac-related death incidence (P =.01) than nondiabetic patients. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this analysis indicate that CEA can be performed in diabetic patients with excellent perioperative morbidity and mortality rates and late stroke-free and survival rates that are comparable with those recorded in nondiabetic patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Bleeding after cardiac surgery correlates with morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of antiplatelet therapy on bleeding and transfusion rates in coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS: Forty patients receiving aspirin and/or clopidogrel/ticlopidine within 7 days prior to surgery were retrospectively compared to 40 control patients lacking antiplatelet therapy for at least 8 preoperative days. Blood loss was assessed as chest-tube drainage during the first 12 h after surgery. Units transfused were recorded intraoperatively and during stay in the intensive care unit. RESULTS: Both groups were comparable for pre- and intraoperative data. Irrespective of single or combined antiplatelet therapy, treated patients demonstrated lower fractions of the creatine-kinase isoenzyme MB (5.8 +/- 3.1 vs. 8.2 +/- 4.1%; P = 0.004) and infarction rates (0 vs. 3; P = 0.240) than control patients, but had significantly more haemorrhages (940 +/- 861 mL vs. 412 +/- 590 mL; P = 0.002) and transfusion requirements (red cells: 4.5 +/- 4.9 vs. 1.5 +/- 2.3, plasma: 4.9 +/- 6.4 vs. 1.3 +/- 2.5, platelets: 1.5 +/- 1.3 vs. 0.1 +/- 0.2; all P < or = 0.001). The differences to control patients were more pronounced for only short antiplatelet therapy free intervals or ongoing antiplatelet therapy (P < or = 2 days < or = 0.019). For antiplatelet therapy free intervals longer than 2 days, bleeding and transfusion rates (except for platelets) were nonsignificantly higher as compared to control patients (P > or = 0.058). CONCLUSIONS: To overcome increased blood loss and transfusion rates, antiplatelet therapy should be discontinued for at least 2 days before elective coronary surgery. Whether patients at high risk for myocardial infarction might benefit from ongoing antiplatelet therapy remains to be investigated. 相似文献

Antifibrinolytic agents such as aprotinin and epsilon aminocaproic acid limit postoperative bleeding and blood transfusion in patients undergoing cardiac operations using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Recent evidence suggests that these agents have adverse side effects that influence operative mortality and morbidity. We studied postoperative bleeding, transfusion rates, and operative outcomes in our patients in order to assess the efficacy of these agents during cardiac operations requiring CPB. We reviewed records of 520 patients undergoing a variety of cardiac operations between January 2005 and May 2009. We measured multiple variables including pre-operative risk factors, antifibrinolytic agent used, and outcomes of operation, such as measures of bleeding and blood transfusion, as well as serious operative morbidity and mortality. Postoperative bleeding rates varied significantly between patients receiving aprotinin and those receiving aminocaproic acid (P < 0.05). There was an associated 12% decrease in operative site bleeding in aprotinin-treated patients compared with aminocaproic acid. There was no significant difference in the transfusion rates of packed red blood cells between patients receiving aminocaproic acid or aprotinin (P > 0.05), though individuals in the aprotinin group did receive FFP more frequently than patients in the aminocaproic acid group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in morbidity and mortality rates between patients in either drug group (P > 0.05). Our study shows that aprotinin is more effective at controlling operative site bleeding than aminocaproic acid. Reduced operative site bleeding did not portend better outcome or differences in transfusion requirements. Aminocaproic acid remains a safe and cost-effective option for antifibrinolytic prophylaxis because of unavailability of aprotinin. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to identify the impact of re-exploration for bleeding after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and the effect of time delay, re-exploration within 12h (<12h) versus 12h or later (>or=12h). METHODS: Analyses of prospective clinical data on 3220 consecutive patients who underwent CABG between 2003 and 2005 were performed. Pearson chi(2) tests, Fisher's exact tests, Student's t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, or univariate logistic regression analysis were used to assess the effects of pre-operative and operative characteristics on re-exploration, and the effects of re-exploration and time delay on adverse outcomes. Predictors of re-exploration and its effect on adverse outcomes were further evaluated using multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: One hundred ninety-one patients (5.9%) underwent re-exploration for bleeding. Re-explored patients as a group in comparison to the non-re-explored group had increased postoperative blood loss, transfusion requirements, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU stay, intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and haemofiltration support, and mortality (all p<0.001). One hundred fifty-seven (82%) of the 191 patients were re-explored <12h. The group of patients who were re-explored <12h in comparison to >or=12h group had shorter ICU stay (median 3 vs 8.5 days; p<0.001), less IABP support (22.3 vs 44.1%; p=0.009) and a lower mortality (7 vs 29.4%; p=0.001). There was no significant difference in blood loss or transfusion requirements between the two groups. The predicted EuroSCORE risks of the <12h group was 6.66% and the observed mortality was 7% (p=0.865). The observed mortality of 29.4% in the >or=12h group was significantly higher than the predicted EuroSCORE risks of 7.59% (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Patients requiring re-exploration for bleeding are at higher risk of adverse outcomes and this risk is increased if time to re-exploration is prolonged for 12h or longer. 相似文献

Efficacy of a simple intraoperative transfusion algorithm for nonerythrocyte component utilization after cardiopulmonary bypass 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

BACKGROUND: Abnormal bleeding after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a common complication of cardiac surgery, with important health and economic consequences. Coagulation test-based algorithms may reduce transfusion of non-erythrocyte allogeneic blood in patients with abnormal bleeding. METHODS: The authors performed a randomized prospective trial comparing allogeneic transfusion practices in 92 adult patients with abnormal bleeding after CPB. Patients with abnormal bleeding were randomized to one of two groups: a control group following individual anesthesiologist's transfusion practices and a protocol group using a transfusion algorithm guided by coagulation tests. RESULTS: Among 836 eligible patients having all types of elective cardiac surgery requiring CPB, 92 patients developed abnormal bleeding after CPB (incidence, 11%). The transfusion algorithm group received less allogeneic fresh frozen plasma in the operating room after CPB (median, 0 units; range, 0-7 units) than the control group (median, 3 units; range, 0-10 units) (P = 0.0002). The median number of platelet units transfused in the operating room after CPB was 4 (range, 0-12) in the algorithm group compared with 6 (range, 0-18) in the control group (P = 0.0001). Intensive care unit (ICU) mediastinal blood loss was significantly less in the algorithm group. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that transfusion algorithm use resulted in reduced ICU blood loss. The control group also had a significantly greater incidence of surgical reoperation of the mediastinum for bleeding (11.8% vs. 0%; P = 0.032). CONCLUSIONS: Use of a coagulation test-based transfusion algorithm in cardiac surgery patients with abnormal bleeding after CPB reduced non-erythrocyte allogeneic transfusions in the operating room and ICU blood loss. 相似文献

There are little data regarding the use of massive transfusion protocols (MTP) outside of the trauma setting. This study compares the use of an MTP between trauma and non-trauma (NT) patients. Data were collected for trauma and NT patients from the prospectively maintained MTP database at a Level I trauma center over a 4-year period. Massive transfusion was defined as ≥ 10 units packed red blood cells (PRBCs) in a 24-hour period. Of 439 MTP activations, 37 (8%) were NT patients (64% male; mean age = 51 years, initial base deficit = -10.8). Activations were for gastrointestinal bleeding (n = 18), bleeding during surgery (n = 13), obstetrical complications (n = 5), and ruptured aortic aneurysm (n = 1). Over-activation of MTP (<10 units PRBCs/24 hours) was higher in NT than trauma patients (19/37, 51% vs 118/284, 29%, P < 0.01). For massive transfusion patients, 24-hour mortality was higher in NT compared with trauma patients (10/17, 59% vs 100/284, 35%, P = 0.05), but there was no difference in 30-day mortality (10/17, 59% vs 144/284, 51%, P = 0.51). With over-activation in 51% of NT patients, MTP usage outside of trauma is inefficient. Outcomes in NT patients were worse than trauma patients, which may be related to the underlying disease processes. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Debate continues as to whether transhiatal esophagectomy results in lower morbidity and mortality than transthoracic esophagectomy. Most data addressing this issue are derived from single-institution studies. To investigate this question from a nationwide multicenter perspective, we used the Veterans Administration National Surgical Quality Improvement Program to prospectively analyze risk factors for morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing transthoracic esophagectomy or transhiatal esophagectomy from 1991 to 2000. METHODS: Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on 945 patients (mean age, 63 +/- 10 years). There were 562 transthoracic esophagectomies and 383 transhiatal esophagectomies in 105 hospitals, with complete 30-day outcomes recorded. RESULTS: There were no differences in recorded preoperative variables between the groups that might bias any comparisons. Overall mortality was 10.0% (56/562) for transthoracic esophagectomy and 9.9% (38/383) for transhiatal esophagectomy (P =.983). Morbidity occurred in 47% (266/562) of patients after transthoracic esophagectomy and in 49% (188/383) of patients after transhiatal esophagectomy (P =.596). Risk factors for mortality common to both groups included a serum albumin value of less than 3.5 g/dL, age greater than 65 years, and blood transfusion of greater than 4 units (P <.05). When comparing transthoracic esophagectomy with transhiatal esophagectomy, there was no difference in the incidence of respiratory failure, renal failure, bleeding, infection, sepsis, anastomotic complications, or mediastinitis. Wound dehiscence occurred in 5% (18/383) of patients undergoing transhiatal esophagectomy and only 2% (12/562) of patients undergoing transthoracic esophagectomy (P =.036). CONCLUSIONS: These data demonstrate no significant differences in preoperative variables and postoperative mortality or morbidity between transthoracic esophagectomy and transhiatal esophagectomy on the basis of a 10-year, prospective, multi-institutional, nationwide study. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Cardiac complications are frequently encountered by neurointensivists caring for patients with SAH. Our aim was to better characterize the natural history of various cardiac abnormalities in this population. We sought to determine the risk factors for cardiac abnormalities, patient outcome, and impact of treatment type on cardiac abnormalities. METHODS: We performed a single center retrospective review of admissions of patients with aneurysmal SAH to the neurosurgical ICU in a large university hospital. Patient demographics, pertinent history, cardiac tests, hospital LOS, intervention type, and discharge outcome were collected. RESULTS: Data from 266 patients were available for analysis. Of these patients, 50% (n = 133) demonstrated cardiac abnormalities as indicated by abnormal EKG, ECHO, or troponin I. Only age was determined to be an independent statistically significant predictor of cardiac abnormality (P = .01). There was no difference in mortality between the cardiac abnormality and control groups (P = .33). However, there was increased morbidity in the cardiac abnormality group as demonstrated by worse discharge disposition, in addition to increased length of hospital stay (22.6 vs 17.1 days, P < .01). The incidence of cardiac abnormalities was the same among surgical and endovascular treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac abnormalities, including those that meet ACC criteria for MI, are common among patients with SAH. However, in contrast to cardiac events outside the context of SAH, these abnormalities do not increase mortality. They do, however, adversely affect discharge disposition and prolong hospital LOS. The type of aneurysm treatment does not affect the incidence or outcome of cardiac abnormalities. 相似文献

Mortality of patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion is high. Although hypothermia, acidosis and coagulopathy have been well described as important determinants of mortality in patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion, the risk factors and outcome associated with hypocalcaemia in these patients remain uncertain. This cohort study assessed the relationship between the lowest ionised calcium concentration during the 24-hour period of critical bleeding and the hospital mortality of 352 consecutive patients, while adjusting for diagnosis, acidosis, coagulation results, transfusion requirements and use of recombinant factor VIIa. Hypocalcaemia was common (mean concentrations 0.77 mmol/l, SD 0.19) and had a linear; concentration-dependent relationship with mortality (odds ratio [OR] 1.25 per 0.1 mmol/l decrement, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.04 to 1.52; P = 0.02). Hypocalcaemia accounted for 12.5% of the variability and was more important than the lowest fibrinogen concentrations (10.8%), acidosis (7.9%) and lowest platelet counts (7.7%) in predicting hospital mortality. The amount of fresh frozen plasma transfused (OR 1.09 per unit, 95% CI: 1.02 to 1.17; P = 0.02) and acidosis (OR 1.45 per 0.1 decrement, 95% CI: 1.19 to 1.72; P = 0.01) were associated with the occurrence of severe hypocalcaemia (< 0.8 mmol/l). In conclusion, ionised calcium concentrations had an inverse concentration-dependent relationship with mortality of patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion. Both acidosis and the amount of fresh frozen plasma transfused were the main risk factors for severe hypocalcaemia. Further research is needed to determine whether preventing ionised hypocalcaemia can reduce mortality of patients with critical bleeding requiring massive transfusion. 相似文献

We investigate age and sex differences in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after cardiac surgery in a prospective study of 2038 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. An age of ≥ 70 years implied changes in the type of AMI from the ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (non-STEMI). Men were more likely than women to suffer from AMI after cardiac surgery (11.8% vs. 5.6%), as a result of the higher frequency of STEMI (6% of men vs. 1.8% of women; P < 0.001) in both age groups. A troponin-I (Tn-I) peak was significantly higher in patients ≥ 70 years old. In-hospital mortality was higher in patients ≥ 70 (7.3%) than in those < 70 years old (3.3%), because of the increased mortality observed in men with non-AMI (2.1% vs. 6.3%) and women with STEMI (0% vs. 28.6%) and non-STEMI (0% vs. 36.8%, P < 0.05). Old age was associated with a higher frequency of non-STEMI, Tn-I peak, mortality and length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). Regardless of age, men more often suffer from AMI (particularly STEMI). AMI in women had a notable impact on excess mortality and ICU stay observed in patients ≥ 70 years of age. Clinical and Tn-I peak differences are expected in relation to age and gender after AMI post-cardiac surgery. 相似文献
