RESUMO
AIM: The objective of the present study was to compare the outcomes of open versus laparoscopic versus robotic cystectomy and ileal conduit for neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD). METHODS: The charts of all patients who underwent cystectomy and ileal conduit for NLUTD between January 2004 and November 2020 in an academic center were retrospectively reviewed. The approach was either open, laparoscopic or robot-assisted depending on the period (i.e., three consecutive era). For the robotic approach, the diversion was done either intracorporeally or extracorporeally. We compared the perioperative and late postoperative outcomes between the three groups. RESULTS: After exclusion of 10 patients with non-neurogenic benign conditions, 126 patients were included over the study period. The most frequent neurological conditions were multiple sclerosis (36.5%) and spinal cord injury (25.4%). The approach was open, laparoscopic or robot-assisted in 31 (24.6%), 26 (20.6%) and 69 (54.7%) cases respectively. Seventy-two patients experienced a 90-day postoperative complication (57.1%) of which 22 had a major complication (Clavien 3 or higher, 17.5%) including one death (0.8%). The rate of major postoperative complications was significantly lower in the robotic group (23% vs. 23% vs. 10%; p = 0.049) while the rate of overall complications was comparable across the three groups (58.1% vs. 53.9% vs. 60.6%; p = 0.84). After a median follow-up of 23 months, 22 patients presented a late complication (17.6%), mainly incisional hernia (5; 4%) and uretero-ileal stricture (9; 7.2%). The rate of late complications did not differ significantly between the three approaches. CONCLUSION: Cystectomy and ileal conduit for neurogenic bladder is associated with a relatively high perioperative morbidity. The robot-assisted approach may decrease the risk of major postoperative complications.

To determine the effect of implementing an algorithm of fluid and blood administration based on continuous monitoring of hemoglobin (SpHb) and PVI (plethysmography variability index) on mortality and transfusion on a whole hospital scale. This single-center quality program compared transfusion at 48 h and mortality at 30 days and 90 days after surgery between two 11-month periods in 2013 and 2014 during which all the operating and recovery rooms and intensive care units were equipped with SpHb/PVI monitors. The entire team was trained to use monitors and the algorithm. Team members were free to decide whether or not to use devices. Each device was connected to an electronic wireless acquired database to anonymously acquire parameters on-line and identify patients who received the monitoring. All data were available from electronic files. Patients were divided in three groups; 2013 (G1, n = 9285), 2014 without (G2, n = 5856) and with (G3, n = 3575) goal-directed therapy. The influence of age, ASA class, severity and urgency of surgery and use of algorithm on mortality and blood use were analyzed with cox-proportional hazard models. Because in 2015, SpHb/PVI monitors were no longer available, we assessed post-study mortality observed in 2015 to measure the impact of team training to adjust vascular filling on a patient to patient basis. During non-cardiac surgery, blood was more often transfused during surgery in G3 patients as compared to G2 (66.6% vs. 50.7%, p < 0.001) but with fewer blood units per patient. After adjustment, survival analysis showed a lower risk of transfusion at 48 h in G3 [OR 0.79 (0.68-0.93), p = 0.004] but not in G2 [OR 0.90 (0.78-1.04) p = 0.17] as compared to G1. When adjusting to the severity of surgery as covariable, there was 0.5 and 0.7% differences of mortality at day 30 and 90 whether patients had goal directed therapy (GDT). After high risk surgery, the mortality at day 30 is reduced by 4% when using GDT, and 1% after intermediate risk surgery. There was no difference for low risk surgery. G3 Patients had a lower risk of death at 30 days post-surgery [OR 0.67 (0.49-0.92) p = 0.01] but not G2 patients [OR 1.01, (0.78-1.29), p = 0.96]. In 2015, mortality at 30 days and 90 days increased again to similar levels as those of 2013, respectively 2.18 and 3.09%. Monitoring SpHb and PVI integrated in a vascular filling algorithm is associated with earlier transfusion and reduced 30 and 90-day mortality on a whole hospital scale.

BACKGROUND: Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) is a new method of anesthesia based on a paradigm shift. Under general anesthesia, the physiology and/or the pathophysiological variations clinically observed are more a reflection of a systemic reaction to the stress (surgical and anesthesia stresses) than a true reflection of pain. OBJECTIVE: To report the results of a large monocenter, retrospective, non-interventional observational study of all consecutive patients who received a total intravenous (IV)-OFA protocol for the surgical management of major open abdominal and urological surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively extracted the anesthesia files of 311 consecutive patients (regional anesthesia excluded). No opioids were administered to any of these patients during the surgery. IV morphine administered in the recovery room was the primary endpoint of the study. The secondary endpoints included the amount of opioid required during the first two postoperative days, as well as the maximum pain intensity. RESULTS: Only very small doses of IV morphine were administered. The mean total morphine titration was 2 mg (1.9 ± 2.9 mg), corresponding to control of the maximal level of pain to 2.1 ± 2.6 as evaluated with a numerical scale in the postoperative care unit. Similarly, we observed a very low level of morphine consumption during the first two postoperative days. CONCLUSIONS: These results highlight the safety and the feasibility of our total IV-OFA protocol, thus confirming this new paradigm. Under general anesthesia, the cardiovascular and inflammatory response to the stress could be reliably managed through a multimodal approach without a need for opioids. In the postoperative period, very low doses of opioids were required.
