RESUMEN
Laparoscopic surgery is the main treatment method for patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumors. Although laparoscopic surgery is minimally invasive, its tool stimulation and pneumoperitoneum pressure often cause strong stress reactions in patients. On the other hand, gastrointestinal surgery can cause stronger pain in patients, compared to other surgeries. Transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) can effectively inhibit the transmission of nerve impulses caused by surgical stimulation, alleviate patient pain, and thus alleviate stress reactions. Remazolam is an acting, safe, and effective sedative, which has little effect on hemodynamics and is suitable for most patients. TAPB combined with remazolam can reduce the dosage of total anesthetic drugs, reduce adverse reactions, reduce stress reactions, and facilitate the rapid postoperative recovery of patients.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: We aimed to determine whether heart rate variability (HRV) was correlated to long-term outcome in patients who received mechanical thrombectomy (MT) under general anesthesia for emergent large vessel occlusion (ELVO). METHODS: Data from 106 patients receiving MT under general anesthesia to treat ELVO between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2019 were collected in a multicenter chart review. Univariate analysis, Chi-square test, and bivariate logistic regression were performed to assess the correlations between preoperative risk factors such as HRV and long-term outcome (as indicated by the modified Rankin score [mRS] at 90 days after MT). RESULTS: Bivariate logistic regression revealed that decreased LF/HF (low frequency/high frequency in HRV) ratio was correlated with unfavorable functional outcome as indicated by mRS ≥ 2 (odds ratio [OR], 0.650; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.157-0.839; p = 0.018), and functionally dependent outcome as indicated by mRS ≥ 3 (OR, 0.704; 95% CI, 0.360-0.914; p = 0.021). It was also found that ELVO in the right anterior circulation was correlated with lower LF/HF ratio, as compared with ELVO in the contralateral side (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Our retrospective study demonstrated that worse outcome in patients with ELVO who received MT under general anesthesia induced autonomic changes and that decreased LF/HF ratio.

BACKGROUND: The fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusion threshold and timing for traumatic brain injury (TBI)-associated coagulopathy are controversial. Thus, a multicenter retrospective study was conducted to determine whether or not FFP transfusion is associated with poor outcomes after severe TBI. METHODS: Data from decompressive craniotomy after blunt force trauma that took place between December 2013 and June 2016 were collected in a multicenter chart. The primary outcomes were mortality and survival, as well as worse outcomes (defined as a Glasgow Outcome Scale [GOS] score ≤3) and better outcomes (GOS score ≥4). Secondary outcomes included 90-day survival rates in all patients with or without FFP transfusion, as well as length of hospital stay in patients with a better prognosis (GOS score ≥4). Univariate analysis, bivariate logistic regression, Spearman rank correlation, and Kaplan-Meier analysis were performed to account for the association between perioperative FFP transfusion and different outcomes. RESULTS: Bivariate logistic analysis showed that mortality and worse outcomes were correlated with FFP transfusion and Glasgow Coma Scale score (P < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier analysis suggested that mortality was statistically higher in the FFP transfusion groups compared with the no FFP transfusion groups, regardless of the severity of TBI (P < 0.05). The overall complications, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and pneumonia rate were significantly higher for patients receiving FFP transfusion (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Increased perioperative FFP infusion was independently associated with mortality or worse outcomes across a spectrum of surgical risk profiles.
