The incidence of complications after radical resection of esophageal carcinoma is high up to about 20%-50%. The incidence of pneumonia, pleural effusion, tracheal intubation, anastomotic fistula and cardiac events is relatively high. Among them, pulmonary complications are the most common complications after esophageal cancer operation and cause the most perioperative deaths. Among the factors that influence the occurrence of postoperative complications of esophageal cancer, the amount of fluid infusion during and after the operation is closely related to the occurrence of postoperative complications. Moreover, in the environment of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS), it is more important to optimize the postoperative fluid management of esophageal cancer. Restricted fluid therapy plays a more and more important role in patients undergoing esophagectomy. This review integrated the relevant research results and discussed the advantages of the restricted fluid therapy compared with other fluid therapy, how to control the restricted infusion volume and infusion speed and how to monitor and evaluate the infusion process and the selection of infusion types, so as to provide reference for clinical practice test.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has entered a new and critical stage after nearly 20 years of rapid development in China. There are various types of TAVR valves with different advantages. TAVR can be performed through various approaches such as transfemoral artery, transapical, trans-carotid artery, or trans-ascending aorta. The first two are more common. Echocardiography plays an important role in the perioperative period of TAVR. Compared to transfemoral approach, transapical TAVR has different key points in perioperative echocardiography which is lack of unified and accurate standards. This standard is specially formulated to focus on the key points of echocardiography in preoperative screening, intraoperative monitoring and postoperative follow-up in order to promote the safe and effective application of transapical TAVR in the clinic.
Objective To investigate the 30-day mortality risk factors in elderly patients (≥70 years) with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and to construct a nomogram for predicting mortality risk. Methods A retrospective analysis of elderly HFrEF patients undergoing isolated CABG at Tianjin Chest Hospital from 2010 to 2024. Simple random sampling in R was used to divide the dataset into training and validation sets in a 7 : 3 ratio. The training set was further divided into survivors and non-survivors. Univariate logistic regression was performed to identify differences between groups, followed by multivariate logistic stepwise regression to select independent risk factors for death and to establish a death-risk nomogram, which underwent internal validation. The predictive value of the nomogram was assessed by plotting receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision-curve analyses for both the training and validation sets. ResultsA total of 656 patients were included. The training set consisted of 458 patients (survivors 418, deaths 40); the validation set consisted of 198 patients (survivors 180, deaths 18). In the training cohort, univariate analysis showed significant differences between survivors and deaths for creatinine (Cr) level, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), maximum Cr, intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) use, assisted ventilation, reintubation, hyperlactatemia, low cardiac output syndrome, and renal failure (P<0.05). After multivariable logistic regression with stepwise selection, five independent risk factors were identified: IABP use (OR=3.391, 95%CI 1.065–11.044, P=0.038), reintubation (OR=15.991, 95%CI 4.269–67.394, P<0.001), hyperlactatemia (OR=8.171, 95%CI 2.057–46.089, P=0.007), Cr (OR=4.330, 95%CI 0.997–6.022, P=0.024), and BNP (OR=1.603, 95%CI 1.000–2.000, P=0.010). Accordingly, a nomogram predicting mortality risk was constructed. The ROC and calibration analyses indicated good predictive value: training set AUC was 0.898 (95%CI 0.831–0.966); validation set AUC 0.912 (95%CI 0.805–1.000). Calibration and decision-curve analyses showed good agreement and clinical utility. Conclusion The nomogram incorporating IABP use, reintubation, hyperlactatemia, creatinine, and BNP provides good predictive value for 30-day mortality after CABG in elderly patients with HFrEF and demonstrates potential clinical utility.
ObjectiveTo summarize the individualized selection of surgical treatment strategies and the key points of perioperative management for patients with heart valve disease complicated with severe chronic heart failure.MethodsThe clinical characteristics of 5 male patients with valvular heart disease complicated with severe chronic heart failure (CHF) were analyzed retrospectively from June 2017 to October 2018 in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, with an average age of 60.21 years.ResultsFive patients were given angiotensin receptor and neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI)-based anti-heart failure treatment after admission. The operation mode of these patients was decided to be valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass after individualized evaluation of patients’ improving symptoms. Three patients were treated with intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) early after operation to assist patients in improving cardiac function. Five patients recovered oral anti-heart failure after awakening. All patients were discharged smoothly 2 weeks after operation.ConclusionIndividualized evaluation is needed for the choice of operation timing and mode, standardized preoperative treatment for heart failure, shortening the aortic blocking time during cardiopulmonary bypass, and early application of left ventricular adjuvant drugs or instruments are all important measures to help patients recover smoothly.
ObjectiveTo investigate the prognostic value and consistency of prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) in perioperative nutritional status of patients with esophageal cancer.MethodsClinical data of 224 patients, including 186 males and 38 females with an average age of 63.08±8.42 years, who underwent esophageal cancer surgery in our hospital from November 2017 to August 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. The PNI was calculated according to the results of the first time blood and biochemical tests, and the PG-SGA assessment was also performed. According to the PNI value, the patients were divided into a good nutrition group (PNI≥45, 60 patients) and a malnutrition group (PNI<45, 164 patients). According to the PG-SGA score, the patients were divided into a good nutrition group (PG-SGA<4, 75 patients) and a malnutrition group (PG-SGA≥4, 149 patients). Nutrition-related haematological indexes and body mass index (BMI) were compared between the two groups, and the consistency of PNI and PG-SGA for nutritional assessment was analyzed.ResultsThe nutrition-related haematological indexes in different PNI groups were statistically different in the perioperative period (P<0.01). The longitudinal changes of prealbumin in patients of different PG-SGA groups were statistically different (P<0.05); the BMI of patients in different PG-SGA groups was statistically different in the perioperative period (P<0.01). The Kappa coefficient of the two indicators was 0.589 (P<0.001).ConclusionBoth PNI and PG-SGA can predict the nutritional risk of patients with esophageal cancer to some extent. PNI is an objective monitoring indicator, and PG-SGA is a subjective evaluation indicator, the combined use of which can more comprehensively reflect and predict the nutritional status of patients, and provide an important reference to the development of individualized nutrition support programs.

Methods: Five hundred perioperative records of patients with incision Ⅰ were randomly chosen and surveyed in 2009. A questionnaire for prophylactic use of antimicrobial was designed. The indication of antimicrobial use, the species, combination, timing and drug duration were analyzed. Results: Our of 500, 495 used antimicrobial and 80 were unreasonable; 540 kinds of antimicrobial were used, included cephalosporin 453 cases (83.89%), penicillin class (including plus enzyme inhibitors) in 26 cases (4.81%), quinolone 44 cases (8.15%). Cefazolin sodium (178 patients, 32.96%) ranked first, second was cefazolin sodium (151, 27.96%). Conclusion: Perioperative use of antimicrobial prophylaxis in patients with incision Ⅰ is reasonable, but standardization management should be strengthened in the indication, species, and duration.
Objective To review the progress of perioperative treatments for patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures. Methods The related literature of treatments for patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures were reviewed and analyzed from the aspects such as the perioperative management, selection of operation ways, and prognosis. Results The patients of Parkinson’s disease are more likely to sustain hip fractures because of postural instability and osteoporosis. The perioperative treatments for patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures should be determined by orthopedists, neurologist, anesthesiologist, and physical therapist. There is still controversy about the selection of operation and surgical approach. And the prognosis of patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures are associated with the severity of Parkinson’s disease. Conclusion There are few clinical studies about the patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures. The mid-term and long-term functional outcomes of patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures are unsufficient. And the best treatments of patients of Parkinson’s disease and hip fractures need to be further explored.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of multidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration team on the perioperation management of geriatric patients with hip fractures.MethodsThe clinical data of 489 geriatric patients with hip fractures (femoral neck fracture and intertrochanteric fracture) between January 1st 2016 and January 1st 2018 was retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 279 patients were treated with the multidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration care (observation group) and 210 patients were treated with the conventional therapeutics and nursing care (control group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, type and classification of fracture, the interval between injury and admission, and Charlson index between the two groups (P>0.05). The surgery rates, time from hospitalization to operation, length of stay, and the incidences of perioperative complications were compared between the two groups.ResultsThe surgery rate was 90.32% (252/279) in observation group and 80.48% (169/210) in control group, showing significant difference between the two groups (χ2=9.703, P=0.002). The time from hospitalization to operation and length of stay in observation group [(5.39±2.47), (10.56±3.76) days] were significant shorter than those in control group [(6.13±2.79), (12.27±3.11) days] (t=−3.075, P=0.002; t=−5.330, P=0.000). The incidence of respiratory complications was 46.15% in control group and 30.56% in observation group; the incidence of cardiovascular system complications was 69.23% in control group and 51.19% in observation group; the incidence of cerebrovascular system complications was 20.12% in control group and 11.11% in observation group; the incidence of deep venous thrombosis was 40.24% in control group and 25.40% in observation group. The incidences of perioperative complications were significantly lower in observation group than in control group (P<0.05).ConclusionMultidisciplinary doctor-nurse collaboration team is conducive not only to improve the surgery rates, but also to reduce perioperative complications as well as shorten the length of stay and preoperative waiting time.
