- A pragmatic multi-center trial of goal-directed fluid management based on pulse pressure variation monitoring during high-risk surgery(2017) MALBOUISSON, Luiz Marcelo Sa; SILVA JR., Joao Manoel; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; LOPES, Marcel Rezende; ASSUNCAO, Murilo Santucci; VALIATTI, Jorge Luis dos Santos; SIMOES, Claudia Marques; AULER JR., Jose Otavio CostaBackground: Intraoperative fluid therapy guided by mechanical ventilation-induced pulse-pressure variation (PPV) may improve outcomes after major surgery. We tested this hypothesis in a multi-center study. Methods: The patients were included in two periods: a first control period (control group; n = 147) in which intraoperative fluids were given according to clinical judgment. After a training period, intraoperative fluid management was titrated to maintain PPV < 10% in 109 surgical patients (PPV group). We performed 1:1 propensity score matching to ensure the groups were comparable with regard to age, weight, duration of surgery, and type of operation. The primary endpoint was postoperative hospital length of stay. Results: After matching, 84 patients remained in each group. Baseline characteristics, surgical procedure duration and physiological parameters evaluated at the start of surgery were similar between the groups. The volume of crystalloids (4500 mL [3200-6500 mL] versus 5000 mL [3750-8862 mL]; P = 0.01), the number of blood units infused during the surgery (1.7 U [0.9-2.0 U] versus 2.0 U [1.7-2.6 U]; P = 0.01), the fraction of patients transfused (13.1% versus 32.1%; P = 0.003) and the number of patients receiving mechanical ventilation at 24 h (3.2% versus 9.7%; P = 0.027) were smaller postoperatively in PPV group. Intraoperative PPV-based improved the composite outcome of postoperative complications OR 0.59 [95% CI 0.35-0.99] and reduced the postoperative hospital length of stay (8 days [6-14 days] versus 11 days [7-18 days]; P = 0.01). Conclusions: In high-risk surgeries, PPV-directed volume loading improved postoperative outcomes and decreased the postoperative hospital length of stay.
- Intraoperative pulmonary hyperdistention estimated by transthoracic lung ultrasound: A pilot study(2020) TONELOTTO, Bruno; PEREIRA, Sergio Martins; TUCCI, Mauro Roberto; VAZ, Diogo Florenzano; VIEIRA, Joaquim Edson; MALBOUISSON, Luiz Marcelo; GAY, Frederick; SIMOES, Claudia Marquez; CARMONA, Maria Jose Carvalho; MONSEL, Antoine; AMATO, Marcelo Brito; ROUBY, Jean-Jacques; JR, Jose Otavio Costa AulerIntroduction: Transthoracic lung ultrasound can assess atelectasis reversal and is considered as unable to detect associated hyperdistention. In this study, we describe an ultrasound pattern highly suggestive of pulmonary hyperdistention. Methods: Eighteen patients with normal lungs undergoing lower abdominal surgery were studied. Electrical impedance tomography was calibrated, followed by anaesthetic induction, intubation and mechanical ventilation. To reverse posterior atelectasis, a recruitment manoeuvre was performed. Positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration was then obtained during a descending trial - 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6 and 4 cmH(2)O. Ultrasound and electrical impedance tomography data were collected at each PEEP level and interpreted by two independent observers. Spearman correlation test and receiving operating characteristic curve were used to compare lung ultrasound and electrical impedance tomography data. Results: The number of horizontal A lines increased linearly with PEEP: from 3 (0, 5) at PEEP 4 cmH(2)O to 10 (8, 13) at PEEP 20 cmH(2)O. The increase number of A lines was associated with a parallel and significant decrease in intercostal space thickness (p = 0.001). The lung ultrasound threshold for detecting pulmonary hyperdistention was defined as the number of A lines counted at the PEEP preceding the PEEP providing the best respiratory compliance. Six A lines was the median threshold for detecting pulmonary hyperdistention. The area under the receiving operating characteristic curve was 0.947. Conclusions: Intraoperative transthoracic lung ultrasound can detect lung hyperdistention during a PEEP descending trial. Six or more A lines detected in normally aerated regions can be considered as indicating lung hyperdistention.
- Opioids and premature biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer: a randomised prospective clinical trial(2021) RANGEL, Felipe P.; JR, Jose O. C. Auler; CARMONA, Maria J. C.; CORDEIRO, Mauricio D.; NAHAS, William C.; COELHO, Rafael F.; SIMOES, Claudia M.Background: Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent neoplasms in male patients, and surgery is the main treatment. Opioids can have immune modulating effects, but their relation to cancer recurrence is unclear. We evaluated whether opioids used during prostatectomy can affect biochemical recurrence-free survival. Methods: We randomised 146 patients with prostate cancer scheduled for prostatectomy into opioid-free anaesthesia or opioid-based anaesthesia groups. Baseline characteristics, perioperative data, and level of prostate-specific antigen every 6 months for 2 yr after surgery were recorded. Prostate-specific antigen >0.2 ng ml(-1) was considered biochemical recurrence. A survival analysis compared time with biochemical recurrence between the groups, and a Cox regression was modelled to evaluate which variables affect biochemical recurrence-free survival. Results: We observed 31 biochemical recurrence events: 17 in the opioid-free anaesthesia group and 14 in the opioidbased anaesthesia group. Biochemical recurrence-free survival was not statistically different between groups (P=0.54). Cox regression revealed that biochemical recurrence-free survival was shorter in cases of obesity (hazard ratio [HR] 1.63, confidence interval [CI] 0.16-3.10; p=0.03), high D'Amico risk (HR 1.58, CI 0.35-2.81; P=0.012), laparoscopic surgery (HR 1.6, CI 0.38-2.84; P=0.01), stage 3 tumour pathology (HR 1.60, CI 0.20-299) and N1 status (HR 1.34, CI 0.28-2.41), and positive surgical margins (HR 1.37, CI 0.50-2.24; P=0.002). The anaesthesia technique did not affect time to biochemical recurrence (HR -1.03, CI -2.65-0.49; P=0.18). Conclusions: Intraoperative opioid use did not modify biochemical recurrence rates and biochemical recurrence-free survival in patients with intermediate and high D?Amico risk prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy. Clinical trial registration: NCT03212456.
- Predictors of major complications after elective abdominal surgery in cancer patients(2018) SIMOES, Claudia M.; CARMONA, Maria J. C.; HAJJAR, Ludhmila A.; VINCENT, Jean-Louis; LANDONI, Giovanni; BELLETTI, Alessandro; VIEIRA, Joaquim E.; ALMEIDA, Juliano P. de; ALMEIDA, Elisangela P. de; RIBEIRO JR., Ulysses; KAULING, Ana L.; TUTYIA, Celso; TAMAOKI, Lie; FUKUSHIMA, Julia T.; AULER JR., Jose O. C.Background: Patients undergoing abdominal surgery for solid tumours frequently develop major postoperative complications, which negatively affect quality of life, costs of care and survival. Few studies have identified the determinants of perioperative complications in this group. Methods: We performed a prospective observational study including all patients (age > 18) undergoing abdominal surgery for cancer at a single institution between June 2011 and August 2013. Patients undergoing emergency surgery, palliative procedures, or participating in other studies were excluded. Primary outcome was a composite of 30-day all-cause mortality and infectious, cardiovascular, respiratory, neurologic, renal and surgical complications. Univariate and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to identify predictive factors for major perioperative adverse events. Results: Of a total 308 included patients, 106 (34.4%) developed a major complication during the 30-day follow-up period. Independent predictors of postoperative major complications were: age (odds ratio [OR] 1.03 [95% CI 1.01-1.06], p = 0.012 per year), ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) physical status greater than or equal to 3 (OR 2.61 [95% CI 1.33-5.17], p = 0.003), a preoperative haemoglobin level lower than 12 g/dL (OR 2.13 [95% CI 1.21-4.07], p = 0.014), intraoperative use of colloids (OR 1.89, [95% CI 1.03-4.07], p = 0.047), total amount of intravenous fluids (OR 1.22 [95% CI 0.98-1.59], p = 0.106 per litre), intraoperative blood losses greater than 500 mL (2.07 [95% CI 1.00-4.31], p = 0.043), and hypotension needing vasopressor support (OR 4.68 [95% CI 1.55-27.72], p = 0.004). The model had good discrimination with the area under the ROC curve being 0.80 (95% CI 0.75-0.84, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that a perioperative strategy aimed at reducing perioperative complications in cancer surgery should include treatment of preoperative anaemia and an optimal fluid strategy, avoiding fluid overload and intraoperative use of colloids.
