    Predicting Pulmonary Complications Following Upper and Lower Abdominal Surgery: ASA vs. ARISCAT Risk Index
    (2020) Kara, Sibel; Kupeli, Elif; Yilmaz, Hatice Eylul Bozkurt; Yabanoglu, Hakan; 0000-0002-5826-1997; 0000-0002-1161-3369; 0000-0003-0268-8999; 32259139; AAB-5345-2021; AAJ-7865-2021; AAI-8069-2021; AAK-2011-2021
    Objective: Postoperative pulmonary complications (POPC) account for a substantial proportion of risk related to surgery and anaesthesia. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification and the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia (ARISCAT) risk index correlate Well with POPC. Here, we compared their accuracy in predicting pulmonary complications following upper and lower abdominal surgery. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients undergoing upper and lower abdominal surgery. We collected patients' demographic data, comorbidities, preoperative pulmonary risk score, laboratory results, surgical data, respiratory tract infection history within one month before surges); surgical urgency, ASA scores and pulmonary complications within one month after the surgery. Results: We evaluated 241 patients [upper abdominal surgery n=121; lower abdominal surgery (UAS) n=120; mean age 55.7 +/- 3.1 years]. In the UAS. 55.13% of the patients were male. In LAS, all patients were fitmale. In both groups, the most common POPC was pleural elfin:ion with compressive atelectasis (CA). Regarding risk score, in both groups, patients with high-risk developed a higher rate of pulmonary complications [JAS (50%), LAS 140%)]. In patients with low-risk scores, the rate of pulmonary complications was significantly lower than the intermediate and high-risk groups (p<0.001). A positive correlation was observed between preoperative risk score and complications (UAS r=0.34; LAS r=0.35 LAS p<0.05). No association was observed between the ASA scores and POPC (p=0.3). Conclusion: The ASA classification was found to be a weaker modality than ARISCAT risk index to predict pulmonary complications after the upper and lower abdominal surgeries.

    Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) in gynecologic oncology: an international survey of peri-operative practice
    (2020) Bhandoria, Geetu Prakash; Bhandarkar, Prashant; Ahuja, Vijay; Maheshwari, Amita; Sekhon, Rupinder K.; Kahramanoglu, Ilker; Wan, Yee-Loi Louise; Knapp, Pawel; Dobroch, Jakub; Zmaczynski, Andrzej; Jach, Robert; Nelson, Gregg; 32753562; AAJ-5802-2021
    Introduction Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programs have been shown to improve clinical outcomes in gynecologic oncology, with the majority of published reports originating from a small number of specialized centers. It is unclear to what degree ERAS is implemented in hospitals globally. This international survey investigated the status of ERAS protocol implementation in open gynecologic oncology surgery to provide a worldwide perspective on peri-operative practice patterns. Methods Requests to participate in an online survey of ERAS practices were distributed via social media (WhatsApp, Twitter, and Social Link). The survey was active between January 15 and March 15, 2020. Additionally, four national gynecologic oncology societies agreed to distribute the study among their members. Respondents were requested to answer a 17-item questionnaire about their ERAS practice preferences in the pre-, intra-, and post-operative periods. Results Data from 454 respondents representing 62 countries were analyzed. Overall, 37% reported that ERAS was implemented at their institution. The regional distribution was: Europe 38%, Americas 33%, Asia 19%, and Africa 10%. ERAS gynecologic oncology guidelines were well adhered to (>80%) in the domains of deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis, early removal of urinary catheter after surgery, and early introduction of ambulation. Areas with poor adherence to the guidelines included the use of bowel preparation, adoption of modern fasting guidelines, carbohydrate loading, use of nasogastric tubes and peritoneal drains, intra-operative temperature monitoring, and early feeding. Conclusion This international survey of ERAS in open gynecologic oncology surgery shows that, while some practices are consistent with guideline recommendations, many practices contradict the established evidence. Efforts are required to decrease the variation in peri-operative care that exists in order to improve clinical outcomes for patients with gynecologic cancer globally.
