RESUMO
Introduction: Prevalence and mortality of the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in intensive care units (ICU) are unacceptably high. There is scarce literature on post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS despite that sepsis and major surgery are conditions associated with ARDS. We aimed to examine the impact of post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS on 60-day mortality. Methods: We performed a secondary analysis of a prospective observational study in 454 patients who underwent major surgery admitted into a single ICU. Patients were stratified in two groups depending on whether they met criteria for ARDS. Primary outcome was 60-day mortality of post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS. Secondary outcome measures were potential risk factors for post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS, and for 60-day mortality. Results: Higher SOFA score (OR 1.1, 95% CI 1.0-1.3, p = 0.020) and higher lactate (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.2-2.7, p = 0.004) at study inclusion were independently associated with ARDS. ARDS patients (n = 45) had higher ICU stay [14 (18) vs. 5 (11) days, p < 0.001] and longer need for mechanical ventilation [6 (14) vs. 1 (5) days, p < 0.001] than non-ARDS patients (n = 409). Sixty-day mortality was higher in ARDS patients (OR 2.7, 95% CI 1.1-6.3, p = 0.024). Chronic renal failure (OR 4.0, 95% CI 1.2-13.7, p = 0.026), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.1-2.7, p = 0.015) and higher APACHE II score (OR 2.7, 95% CI 1.3-5.4, p = 0.006) were independently associated with 60-day mortality. Conclusion: Post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS is associated with higher 60-day mortality compared to non-ARDS post-operative septic patients. Post-operative septic patients with higher severity of illness have a greater risk of ARDS and worse outcomes. Further investigation is needed in post-operative sepsis-induced ARDS to prevent ARDS.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Despite growing interest in treatment strategies that limit oxygen exposure in ICU patients, no studies have compared conservative oxygen with standard oxygen in postsurgical patients with sepsis/septic shock, although there are indications that it may improve outcomes. It has been proven that high partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO2) reduces the rate of surgical-wound infections and mortality in patients under major surgery. The aim of this study is to examine whether PaO2 is associated with risk of death in adult patients with sepsis/septic shock after major surgery. METHODS: We performed a secondary analysis of a prospective observational study in 454 patients who underwent major surgery admitted into a single ICU. Patients were stratified in two groups whether they had hyperoxemia, defined as PaO2 > 100 mmHg (n = 216), or PaO2 ≤ 100 mmHg (n = 238) at the day of sepsis/septic shock onset according to SEPSIS-3 criteria maintained during 48 h. Primary end-point was 90-day mortality after diagnosis of sepsis. Secondary endpoints were ICU length of stay and time to extubation. RESULTS: In patients with PaO2 ≤ 100 mmHg, we found prolonged mechanical ventilation (2 [8] vs. 1 [4] days, p < 0.001), higher ICU stay (8 [13] vs. 5 [9] days, p < 0.001), higher organ dysfunction as assessed by SOFA score (9 [3] vs. 7 [5], p < 0.001), higher prevalence of septic shock (200/238, 84.0% vs 145/216) 67.1%, p < 0.001), and higher 90-day mortality (37.0% [88] vs. 25.5% [55], p = 0.008). Hyperoxemia was associated with higher probability of 90-day survival in a multivariate analysis (OR 0.61, 95%CI: 0.39-0.95, p = 0.029), independent of age, chronic renal failure, procalcitonin levels, and APACHE II score > 19. These findings were confirmed when patients with severe hypoxemia at the time of study inclusion were excluded. CONCLUSIONS: Oxygenation with a PaO2 above 100 mmHg was independently associated with lower 90-day mortality, shorter ICU stay and intubation time in critically ill postsurgical sepsis/septic shock patients. Our findings open a new venue for designing clinical trials to evaluate the boundaries of PaO2 in postsurgical patients with severe infections.

We carried out a retrospective exploratory study on 173 patients who underwent major surgery and developed septic shock after surgery. Our findings suggest that CEACAM7 rs1001578, rs10409040, and rs889365 polymorphisms could influence septic shock-related death in individuals who underwent major surgery.

OBJECTIVES: To obtain a gene expression signature to distinguish between septic shock and non-septic shock in postoperative patients, since patients with both conditions show similar signs and symptoms. METHODS: Differentially expressed genes were selected by microarray analysis in the discovery cohort. These genes were evaluated by quantitative real time polymerase chain reactions in the validation cohort to determine their reliability and predictive capacity by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS: Differentially expressed genes selected were IGHG1, IL1R2, LCN2, LTF, MMP8, and OLFM4. The multivariate regression model for gene expression presented an area under the curve value of 0.922. These genes were able to discern between both shock conditions better than other biomarkers used for diagnosis of these conditions, such as procalcitonin (0.589), C-reactive protein (0.705), or neutrophils (0.605). CONCLUSIONS: Gene expression patterns provided a robust tool to distinguish septic shock from non-septic shock postsurgical patients and shows the potential to provide an immediate and specific treatment, avoiding the unnecessary use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and the development of antimicrobial resistance, secondary infections and increase health care costs.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Ambulatory surgery is much favored in children, as they are usually healthy with no major comorbidities. Obvious benefits are minimization of health costs, optimal utilization of resources, decreased exposure to infections, and psychological and emotional advantages of avoiding admission of the patient, especially for the family. Parental satisfaction is a challenge in pediatric surgery processes. The objective of this study was to compare satisfaction in parents whose children underwent surgery without overnight stays with parents whose children were operated on in an autonomous major ambulatory surgery unit (hospital isolated). METHODS: This was a prospective observational study of 200 children who received surgery on an outpatient basis (133 were included in an outpatient unit and 67 in a hospital setting). Different variables were collected, including sex, age, type of surgery, and length of stay in the hospital and location, and a telephone perception survey was conducted (questionnaire of satisfaction of 14 questions with possible answers from 1 to 4 on a Likert scale and a 15th question on global satisfaction, with an answer from 0 to 10). RESULTS: Overall satisfaction during the hospital stay was higher in the group operated on in the autonomous major surgery unit (3.54 ± 0.57 vs 3.28 ± 0.64, P = .004). Whether parents respond as being very satisfied with the hospital stay is influenced by several factors, among which are: being treated at major ambulatory surgery units (odds ratio [OR] = 2.16), good or very good information received prior to surgery (OR = 2.03), and good or very good information received at discharge (OR = 2.48). CONCLUSIONS: Parents of children who received surgery on an outpatient basis were more satisfied if the procedure was performed in an autonomous major ambulatory surgery unit compared with hospitalization, even if it was not overnight. The information received during the care process influenced the parents' satisfaction. These findings suggest that efforts should be devoted to the creation of autonomous units for ambulatory surgery and to the improvement of perioperative information.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To develop and validate a delirium risk prediction preoperative model for patients undergoing cardiac surgery. DESIGN: Observational prospective multicentre study. SETTING: Six intensive care units in Spain. PATIENTS: 689 patients undergoing cardiac surgery consecutively, aged ≥18â¯years. MEASUREMENTS: The primary outcome measure was the development of delirium, diagnosed using the Confusion Assessment Method in Intensive Care Units (CAM-ICU), during the stay in the intensive care unit after cardiac surgery. MAIN RESULTS: The model was developed with 345 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery at six hospitals and validated with another 344 patients from the same hospitals. The prediction model contained four preoperative risk factors: age over 65â¯years, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 25-26 points (possible impairment of cognitive function) orâ¯<â¯25 (impairment of cognitive function), insomnia needing medical treatment and low physical activity (walk less than 30â¯min a day). The model had an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of 0.825 (95% confidence interval: 0.76-0.89). The validation resulted in an area under the curve of 0.79 (0.73-0.85) and the pooled area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (nâ¯=â¯689) was 0.81 (0.76-0.85). We stratified patients in groups of low (0%-20%), moderate (> 20%-40%), high (> 40%-60%) and very high (> 60%) risk of developing delirium, with a positive and negative predictive value for the very high risk group of 70.97% and 85.56%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The DELIPRECAS model (DELIrium PREvention CArdiac Surgery), consisting of four well-defined clinical risk factors, can predict in the preoperative period the risk of developing postoperative delirium in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. An automatic version of the risk calculator is available.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine the rate of nosocomial infection among patients undergoing cardiac surgery and to identify risk factors and the impact of these infections on patient mortality. DESIGN: Prospective observational study. SETTING: Intensive Care Unit (ICU). PATIENTS: 1097 adult patients who underwent cardiac surgery at Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valladolid between January 2011 and January 2016. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS: Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative medical, surgical and anaesthetic variables. MAIN RESULTS: A total of 111 patients (10.1%) acquired a nosocomial infection in the postoperative period. Pneumonia was the most frequent (4.2%) nosocomial infection. Three independent risk factors for the development of a nosocomial infection were identified: cardiopulmonary bypass time, kidney failure and emergency surgery. The stay in the ICU was significantly higher in patients who developed a nosocomial infection (16.6⯱â¯38.8 vs. 4.4⯱â¯17.8, Pâ¯<â¯0.001). The mortality rate of patients who acquired a nosocomial infection was significantly greater (18%) than that of patients who did not acquire a nosocomial infection (5%) (Pâ¯<â¯0.001). The 90-day survival was greater in the group of patients without nosocomial infection (log rank 27.55, Pâ¯<â¯0.001). The dynamic modelling of 90-day mortality revealed that in the first week, cardiopulmonary bypass time (HRâ¯=â¯1.00, 95% CI 1.00-1.02, Pâ¯<â¯0.001) and emergency surgery (HRâ¯=â¯0.12, 95% CI 0.04-0.37, Pâ¯<â¯0.001) were the most important risk factors for mortality, while after the first week, nosocomial infection (HRâ¯=â¯6.23, 95% CI 2.49-15.63, Pâ¯<â¯0.001) was the main risk factor, followed by cardiopulmonary bypass time (HRâ¯=â¯1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.01, Pâ¯=â¯0.001) and EuroSCORE (HRâ¯=â¯1.03, 95% CI 1.00-1.06, Pâ¯=â¯0.008). CONCLUSIONS: Nosocomial infections after cardiac surgery constitute the main independent risk factor for mortality after the first week of surgery. These data suggest that its prevention following cardiac surgery must be prioritised to improve patient outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Higher expression of olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4), a gene regulated by nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), has been related to a higher risk of organ failure and death in patients with septic shock. We aimed to evaluate the association between OLFM4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and septic shock-related death in 175 patients who underwent major surgery, as well as its performance in predicting mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We carried out a retrospective study. A total of seven OLFM4 SNPs were genotyped by Agena Bioscience's MassARRAY platform. Statistical analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression tests. The diagnostic performance for predicting septic shock-related death was evaluated by the area under the receiver-operating characteristic (AUROC) curve. RESULTS: Patients with rs17552047 A allele and rs1891944 TT genotype had higher survival than patients with rs17552047 G allele (P-value = .024) and patients with rs1891944 CC/CT genotype (P-value = .038). However, only rs17552047 was associated with a lower risk of death under an additive inheritance model (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 0.44, 95% CI = 0.27-0.71). The multivariate model with the most significant clinical variables (lactate, chronic kidney disease, peritonitis, heart disease and elective surgery) showed an AUROC of 0.776 for predicting septic shock-related death. When we added the OLFM4 rs17552047 SNP to the previous model, the AUROC was 0.811 and was close to reaching significant differences with the previous model (P-value = .065). CONCLUSION: OLFM4 rs17552047 A allele predicts septic shock survival in patients who underwent major surgery. Furthermore, rs17552047, together with clinical variables, could be useful to predict the outcome of septic shock.

Interferon lambda 3 (IFNL3, previously called IL-28B) is a cytokine with effects against viral and bacterial pathogens. We aimed to analyze the IFNL3 rs12980275 SNP in patients who underwent major surgery, in order to establish its relationship with susceptibility to septic shock and septic shock-related death in these patients. We performed a case-control study on 376 patients to establish the association between IFNL3 rs12980275 SNP and the susceptibility to develop septic shock. Besides, we performed a longitudinal study among 172 septic shock patients using survival analysis with one censoring point of 28-days mortality. The IFNL3 rs12980275 polymorphism was genotyped by Agena Bioscience's MassARRAY platform. IFNL3 rs12980275 polymorphism was not associated with higher susceptibility to infection and septic shock development. Regarding survival analysis, the Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with IFNL3 rs12980275 AA genotype had higher survival than patients with GG genotype (p = 0.003). The Cox regression analysis adjusted by the most relevant clinical and epidemiological characteristics showed that the GG genotype (recessive model) and the presence of the G allele (additive model) were associated with higher risk of death [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) = 2.15, p = 0.034; aHR = 1.50, p = 0.030, respectively]. In conclusion, IFNL3 rs12980275 polymorphism was associated with septic shock-related death in patients who underwent major surgery. The A allele was linked to protection, and the G allele was associated with an increased risk of death. This is a first preliminary study that suggests for the first time a role of IFNL3 polymorphisms in the prognosis of septic shock.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In many immune-related diseases, inflammatory responses and several clinical outcomes are related to increased NF-κB activity. We aimed to evaluate whether SNPs related to the NF-κB signaling pathway are associated with higher susceptibility to infection, septic shock, and septic-shock-related death in European patients who underwent major surgery. METHODS: We performed a case-control study on 184 patients with septic shock and 212 with systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and a longitudinal substudy on septic shock patients. Thirty-three SNPs within genes belonging to or regulating the NF-κB signaling pathway were genotyped by Agena Bioscience's MassARRAY platform. RESULTS: No significant results were found for susceptibility to infection and septic shock in the multivariate analysis after adjusting for multiple comparisons. Regarding septic-shock-related death, patients with TNFAIP3 rs6920220 AA, TNIP1 rs73272842 AA, TNIP1 rs3792783 GG, and TNIP1 rs7708392 CC genotypes had the highest risk of septic-shock-related death in the first 28 and 90 days. Also, the MyD88 rs7744 GG genotype was associated with a higher risk of death during the first 90 days. Haplotype analysis shows us that patients with the TNIP1 GAG haplotype (composed of rs73272842, rs3792783, and rs7708392) had a lower risk of death in the first 28 days and the TNIP1 AGC haplotype was associated with a higher risk of death in the first 90 days. CONCLUSIONS: The SNPs in the genes TNFAIP3, TNIP1, and MyD88 were linked to the risk of septic-shock-related death in patients who underwent major surgery.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if an intraoperative cerebral regional oxygen saturation (crSO2) decrease, less pronounced than 20% below baseline (the current threshold believed to be associated with cognitive dysfunction in adults), is associated with negative postoperative behavioral changes (NPOBC) in the pediatric population after noncardiac surgeries. STUDY DESIGN: A prospective observational study was conducted with 198 children aged 2-12 years old scheduled for noncardiac procedures under general anesthesia. Intraoperatively, crSO2 was monitored with a cerebral oximeter. On postoperative day 7, the Post-Hospital Behavior Questionnaire was used to diagnose NPOBC. RESULTS: The incidence of NPOBC was 38.8%. Logistic regression analysis revealed that with every 1% reduction of crSO2 from the baseline value, the odds of developing NPOBC were 1.199 higher. Likewise, preoperative anxiety (OR 2.832, P = .006), duration of surgery (OR 1.026, P < .0001), and being between the ages of 2 and 3 years (OR 2.604, P = .048) were associated with NPOBC incidence. The multivariable logistic regression model receiver operating characteristic curve showed an area under the curve (95% CI) = 0.820 (0.759-0.881). CONCLUSIONS: During noncardiac surgeries in the pediatric population, an intraoperative decrease in crSO2 less pronounced than 20% from the baseline value is associated with negative postoperative behavior changes on postoperative day 7. The long-term implications remain to be determined, but this supports attention to crSO2 during noncardiac surgeries.

BACKGROUND: Numerous studies have evaluated the use of ultraviolet-C devices for terminal disinfection in hospitals, however, to date there is little information about the device's final impact on patients. We investigated the effect of an ultraviolet air sterilizer (UVAS) on the clinical outcomes of cardiac surgery patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This random, prospective and non-interventional study included 1097 adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery: 522 stayed in an ICU room with UVAS (Medixair®) and 575 patients ICU room without UVAS and were used as a control. The primary outcome measure was to evaluate the effect of a UVAS on the overall prevalence of nosocomial infections in postoperative cardiac patients in ICUs. RESULTS: No significant differences in ventilator-associated pneumonia (4.6% vs. 5.0%, p=0.77) and total infection (14.0% vs. 15.5%, p=0.45) rates were detected in patients with and without the UVAS. The length of stay in the intensive care unit and at the hospital was similar in both groups, UVAS (4.6 (8.2) days and 18.3 (5.5) days) and without UVAS (4.6 (7.3) days and 19.2 (18.6) days). The 30-day in-hospital mortality rate was 5.3%, no significant differences between groups were observed (p=0.053). CONCLUSION: Novel ultraviolet-C technology has not been shown to significantly reduce nosocomial infections or mortality rates in cardiac surgery patients.

BACKGROUND: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection, being the primary cause of death from infection, especially if not recognized and treated promptly. The aim of this study was to analyze whether IL-6 rs1800795 polymorphism is associated with septic shock-related death in European white patients who underwent major surgery. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study on 202 septic shock patients who underwent major cardiac or abdominal surgery. The septic shock was established according to the international septic shock definition. The primary outcome variable was the death within 90 days after diagnosis of septic shock. The IL-6 rs1800795 polymorphism was genotyped by Sequenom's MassARRAY platform. RESULTS: The median age of the patients was 73 years, 63.4% were male, and more than 40% of patients had heart disease and hypertension. Overall, the survival analysis showed that 111 (55%) patients died with a survival median of 39 days (95% CI 30.7; 47.2). The genetic analysis association with survival was performed under a recessive genetic model (CC vs. GG/CG). Patients with IL-6 rs1800795 CC genotype had higher mortality rate than the IL-6 rs1800795 GG/CG genotype at days 7 [31.6% (6/19) vs. 10.4% (19/183); log-rank test (p = 0.005)] and 28 [57.9% (11/19) vs. 33.3% (61/183); log-rank test (p = 0.009)], and 90 [68.4% (13/19) vs. 53.5% (98/183); log-rank test (p = 0.006)]. The IL-6 rs1800795 CC genotype was associated with higher risk of septic shock-related death during the first 7 days [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR 4.65; p = 0.002), 28 days (aHR 2.50; p = 0.006), and 90 days (aHR 2.28; p = 0.006)] with septic shock. When patients were stratified by type of surgery, those with IL-6 rs1800795 CC genotype who underwent cardiac surgery had higher risk of death during the first 7 days (aHR 18.39; p = 0.001) and 28 days (aHR 6.1; p = 0.025) than IL-6 rs1800795 GG/GC carrier, whereas patients with IL-6 rs1800795 CC genotype who underwent abdominal surgery had higher risk of death during all follow-up (aHR 1.98; p = 0.050) than IL-6 rs1800795 GG/GC carrier. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of IL-6 rs1800795 CC genotype was associated with higher risk of septic shock-related death in patients who underwent major cardiac or abdominal surgery. These findings need robust validation in bigger independent cohorts.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: IL-1ß is a primary mediator of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and it may lead to shock septic. Our aim was to analyse whether IL-1B rs16944 polymorphism is associated with the onset of septic shock and death after major surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a case-control study on 467 patients who underwent major cardiac or abdominal surgery. Of them, 205 patients developed septic shock (cases, SS group) and 262 patients developed SIRS (controls, SIRS group). The primary outcome variables were the development of septic shock and death within 90 days after diagnosis of septic shock. The IL-1B rs16944 polymorphism was genotyped by Sequenom's MassARRAY platform. The association analysis was performed under a recessive genetic model (AA vs. GG/GC). RESULTS: The frequency of septic shock was higher in patients with IL-1B rs16944 AA genotype than in patients with IL-1B rs16944 GG/AG genotype when all patients were taken into account (63·6% vs. 41·8%; P = 0·006), cardiac surgery (52·2% vs. 33·3%; P = 0·072) and abdominal surgery (76·2% vs. 50·2%; P = 0·023). However, the IL-1B rs16944 AA genotype was only associated with higher likelihood of septic shock in the analysis of all population [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 2·26 (95%CI = 1·03; 4·97; P = 0·042], but not when it was stratified by cardiac surgery (P = 0·175) or abdominal surgery (P = 0·467). Similarly, IL-1B rs16944 AA genotype was also associated with higher likelihood of septic shock-related death in all population [aOR = 2·67 (95%CI = 1·07; 4·97); P = 0·035]. CONCLUSIONS: IL-1B rs16944 AA genotype seems to be related to the onset of septic shock and death in patients who underwent major surgery.

PURPOSE: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased mortality. The aim was to design a nondialytic AKI score in patients with previously normal renal function undergoing cardiac surgery. METHODS: Data were collected on 909 patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass between 2012 and 2014. A total of 810 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Patients were classified as having AKI based on the RIFLE criteria. Postoperative AKI occurred in 137 patients (16.9%). Several parameters were recorded preoperatively, intraoperatively, and at intensive care unit admission, looking for a univariate and multivariate association with AKI risk. A second data set of 741 patients, from 2 different hospitals, was recorded as a validation cohort. RESULTS: Four independent risk factors were included in the CRATE score: creatinine (odds ratio [OR], 9.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.77-19.56; P < .001), EuroSCORE (OR, 1.40; CI, 1.29-1.52; P < .001), lactate (OR, 1.03; CI, 1.01-1.04; P < .001), and cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR, 1.01; CI, 1.01-1.02; P < .001). The accuracy of the model was good, with an area under the curve of 0.89 (CI, 0.85-0.92). The CRATE score retained good discrimination in validation cohort, with an area under the curve of 0.81 (95% CI, 0.78-0.85). CONCLUSIONS: CRATE score is an accurate and easy to calculate risk score that uses affordable and widely available variables in the routine care surgical patients.
