ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of COVID-19 on the outcomes of surgical patients and the factors associated with postoperative complications and mortality.

METHODS:

The study included hospitalized patients with similar demographic and clinical features, who underwent similar surgical operations with a positive polymerase chain reaction test for SARS CoV-2 before or within days following the surgery (COVID-19 group) and a control group was formed of patients who tested negative for COVID-19. The two groups were compared in terms of demographic, clinical, and laboratory data, the presence of pneumonia, complications, and 30-day post-operative mortality.

RESULTS:

The diagnosis for COVID-19 increased the risk of complications and mortality. Age, CRP, D-dimer, ASA Grade 3-4, > 2 comorbidities, and pneumonia were determined to be factors increasing the risk of complications. Age, CRP, > 2 comorbidities, emergency operations, and pneumonia were determined to increase the risk of mortality.

CONCLUSION:

As patients with peri/post-operative COVID-19 positivity might be at increased risk of postoperative complications and mortality, emergency surgery in infected cases should be delayed in appropriate cases.
RESUMEN

OBJETIVO:

Nos propusimos evaluar el efecto de la COVID-19 en los resultados de los pacientes quirúrgicos y los factores relacionados con las complicaciones postoperatorias y la mortalidad.

MÉTODOS:

Se incluyeron los pacientes hospitalizados sometidos a operaciones quirúrgicas similares con características demográficas y clínicas similares con una prueba de reacción en cadena de la polimerasa positiva para el CoV-2 del SARS antes/en los días siguientes a la cirugía (grupo COVID-19) y los controles negativos. Los dos grupos se compararon en términos demográficos, clínicos y de laboratorio de la presencia de neumonía, las complicaciones y la mortalidad a los 30 días del postoperatorio.

RESULTADOS:

El diagnóstico de COVID-19 aumentó el riesgo de complicaciones y mortalidad. La edad, la CRP, el Dímero D, el grado 3-4 de la ASA, tener más de 2 comorbilidades y neumonía se relacionaron con un mayor riesgo de complicaciones. Mientras que la edad, la PCR, tener más de dos comorbilidades, las operaciones de urgencia y la neumonía se relacionaron con un mayor riesgo de mortalidad.

CONCLUSIONES:

Los pacientes con COVID-19 pre/postoperatorio podrían tener un mayor riesgo de complicaciones postoperatorias y de mortalidad, por lo que las cirugías de urgencia en casos infectados podrían retrasarse en los casos adecuados.
