Perioperative hyperglycemia in critically ill surgery patients increases the risk of postoperative infection (POI), which is a common, and often costly, surgical complication. Hyperglycemia is associated with abnormalities in leukocyte function, including granulocyte adherence, impaired phagocytosis, delayed chemotaxis, and depressed bactericidal capacity. These leukocyte deficiencies are the c...
OBJECTIVE To provide an evidence-based focused review of aspirin use in the perioperative period along with an in-depth discussion of the considerations and risks associated with its preoperative withdrawal. BACKGROUND For patients with established cardiovascular disease, taking aspirin is considered a critical therapy. The cessation of aspirin can cause a platelet rebound phenomenon and prot...
Perioperative assessment in the elderly is important since they present challenging medical situations. The assessment involves identifying coexisting disease, defining the urgency of the intervention, and anticipating postoperative complications based on the type of the surgery. The role of the physicians is searching for correctable conditions, and avoiding complication during or after the op...
Perioperative stroke can be a catastrophic outcome for surgical patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This consensus statement from the Society for Neuroscience in Anesthesiology and Critical Care provides evidence-based recommendations and opinions regarding the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care of patients at high risk for the complication.
Postoperative delirium is a serious complication of cardiac surgery. However, the pathophysiology of this mental syndrome is largely unknown. Recent findings suggest an association between elevated level of cortisol and postoperative delirium. Further studies should investigate the mechanisms responsible for excessive perioperative cortisol secretion.
INTRODUCTION: Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) may require a panniculectomy in preparation for renal transplantation. ESRD is associated with increased cardiovascular risk factors, electrolyte imbalances, and chronic anemia. These factors may increase the risk of adverse outcomes in patients undergoing panniculectomy. Purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and perioperative co...
Myoclonus is an extremely rare perioperative complication following neuraxial anesthesia. It has also been reported to occur due to peripheral nerve lesions. We report a case of self-limiting myoclonus following a routine peripheral nerve block in an otherwise healthy patient.
Spinal infarction is a rare and devastating complication of open-heart surgery, especially in the context of perioperative hemodynamic instability in patients requiring high dose of inotropes and vasoconstrictors. Our report highlights that spinal infarction can occur in such circumstances following a valve replacement surgery.
Acute haemorrhage following pelvic reconstructive surgery is a complication that requires immediate evaluation and treatment. Most researchers describe the perioperative morbidity associated with complex surgery for prolapsed pelvic organs, but to date, no studies have reported on the management of acute haemorrhage during surgery. This case study describes two cases of acute bleeding during co...
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing major vascular surgery are at increased risk of perioperative mortality due to underlying coronary artery disease. Inhibitors of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (statins) may reduce perioperative mortality through the improvement of lipid profile, but also through the stabilization of coronary plaques on the vascular wall. METHODS AND RESULTS To evalua...
