RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Goal-directed perfusion (GDP) refers to individualized goal-directed therapy using comprehensive monitoring and optimizing the delivery of oxygen during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This study aims to determine whether the intraoperative GDP protocol method has better outcomes compared to conventional methods. METHODS: We searched the PubMed, Central, and Scopus databases up to October 12, 2023. We primarily examined the GDP protocol in adult cardiac surgery, using CPB with oxygen delivery index (DO2I) and cardiac index (CI) as the main parameters. RESULTS: In all, 1128 participants from seven studies were included in our analysis. The results showed significant differences in the duration of intensive care unit (ICU) stays (p = 0.01), with a mean difference of -0.33 (-0.59 to 0.07), and hospital length of stay (LOS) (p = 0.0002), with a mean difference of -0.84 (-1.29 to -0.39). There was also a notable reduction in postoperative complications (p <0.00001), odds ratio (OR) of 0.43 (0.32-0.60). However, there was no significant decrease in mortality rate (p = 0.54), OR of 0.77 (0.34-1.77). CONCLUSION: Postoperative acute kidney injury and ICU and hospital LOS are significantly reduced when GDP protocols with indicators of flow management, oxygen delivery index, and CI are used in intraoperative cardiac surgery using CPB.

Extensive research has been conducted on the roles of physical activity in immune functioning. However, reviews on the effect of physical activity on immune function among obese older adults are scarce. This study aimed to map the trend and development of the key terms and prominent sources to identify potential research opportunities through a systematic bibliographic analysis. A systematic search was conducted in the Scopus database on the following query: (sport∗ OR "physical activity" OR exercise) AND (elderly OR "older adult∗" OR aging) AND (immun∗) AND (obes∗) AND NOT (animal), in March 2023. Publication timing and citation were descriptively analyzed, followed by the bibliographic coupling and the term co-occurrence analyses for generating network and overlay visualization mapping using the VOSviewers software. The search resulted in 426 articles dating back from 1991 to the present and were dominated by authors from Western countries. Three thematic clusters of this research area were generated, covering (1) the impact of physical activity or inactivity on health, (2) physical activity assessments and the use of association and cross-sectional study as the primary type of research, and (3) the physical activity impacts at the population level. For future research, more intervention studies are needed to understand how exercise affects immune response in older obese adults and to explore optimal duration, type, and intensity of the exercise, using a multi-omics approach. Studies in non-Western populations and systematic reviews are recommended to complement this bibliographic analysis.
RESUMEN
Introduction: No mortality risk prediction model has previously been validated for cardiac surgery in Indonesia. This study aimed at validating the EuroSCORE II and Age Creatinine Ejection Fraction (ACEF) score as predictors for in-hospital mortality after cardiac surgery a in tertiary center, and if necessary, to recalibrate the EuroSCORE II model to our population. Methods: This study was a single-center observational study from prospectively collected data on adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery from January 2006 to December 2011 (n = 1833). EuroSCORE II and ACEF scores were calculated for all patients to predict in-hospital mortality. Discrimination was assessed using the area under the curve (AUC) with a 95% confidence interval. Calibration was assessed with the Hosmer-Lemeshow test (HL test). Multivariable analysis was performed to recalibrate the EuroSCORE II; variables with P < 0.2 entered the final model. Results: The in-hospital mortality rate was 3.8%, which was underestimated by the EuroSCORE II (2.1%) and the ACEF score (2.4%). EuroSCORE II (AUC 0.774 (0.714-0.834)) showed good discrimination, whereas the ACEF score (AUC 0.638 [0.561-0.718]) showed poor discrimination. The differences in AUC were significant (P = 0.002). Both scores were poorly calibrated (EuroSCORE II: HL test P < 0.001, ACEF score: HL test P < 0.001) and underestimated mortality in all risk groups. After recalibration, EuroSCORE II showed good discrimination (AUC 0.776 [0.714- 0.840]) and calibration (HL test P = 0.79). Conclusions: EuroSCORE II and the ACEF score were unsuitable for risk prediction of in-hospital mortality after cardiac surgery in our center. Following recalibration, the calibration of the EuroSCORE II was greatly improved.

Background: Anesthesiologists play a crucial role in every disaster event, including biological disasters by COVID-19. This medical specialty should be prepared for a surge in patients due to a pandemic. The present study aims to evaluate the preparedness of anesthesiologists in facing the surge in the number of COVID-19 patients at the beginning of the pandemic in Indonesia. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study using an online survey to Anesthesiologists in Indonesia, with snowballing sampling method. A distribution frequency was used to describe the univariate analysis results of the variables. Pearson correlation was used to test the correlation between perceived resource adequacy/availability and perceived preparedness to face the surge. Results: A total of 141 anesthesiologists participated in our online survey; 47% of responders said they do not have enough staff, while 53% said that their staff did not have sufficient knowledge of handling the critical COVID-19 patients. They also reported limited resources, especially the limited isolation space and N95 masks. The correlation analysis indicated a strong and significant relationship between limited resources and the preparedness of anesthesiologists. Conclusion: At the beginning of the pandemic, Indonesian Anesthesiologists felt that they still had very limited resources, leading to unpreparedness to deal with the surge in the number of COVID-19 patients with critical conditions.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: In 2011, the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk (EuroSCORE) II was created as an improvement of the additive/logistic EuroSCORE for the prediction of mortality after cardiac surgery. OBJECTIVE: To validate EuroSCORE II in predicting the mortality of open cardiac surgery patients in Indonesia. METHODS: We performed a multi-center retrospective study of cardiac surgery patients from three participating centers (Dr. Sardjito Hospital, Kariadi Hospital, and Abdul Wahab Sjahranie Hospital) between January 1st, 2016, and December 31st, 2020. Discrimination and calibration tests were performed. RESULTS: The observed mortality rate was 9.5% (73 out of 767 patients). The median EuroSCORE II value was 1.13%. The area under the curve for EuroSCORE II was 0.71 (95% CI: 0.65-0.77), suggesting fair discriminatory power. Calibration analysis suggested that EuroSCORE II underestimated postoperative mortality. Gender, age, chronic pulmonary disease, limited mobility, NYHA, and critical pre-operative state were significant predictors of post-cardiac surgery mortality in our population. CONCLUSION: This study suggested that the EuroSCORE II was a poor predictor for postoperative mortality in Indonesian patients who underwent cardiac surgery procedures. Therefore, EuroSCORE II may not be suitable for mortality risk prediction in Indonesian populations, and surgical planning should be decided on an individual basis.

Background: Among cardiac surgery patients, low preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is common and has been associated with poor outcomes. The objective of this study was to assess the association between LVEF and postoperative mortality in patients undergoing open-heart surgery in several hospitals in Indonesia. Methods: We conducted a multicenter study with the retrospective design using data from patients undergoing open-heart surgery in 4 institutions in Indonesia. Data regarding LVEF and other potential risk factors were extracted from medical records and compiled in one datasheet. Statistical analyses were performed to assess if low LVEF was associated with postoperative mortality and identify other potential risk factors. Results: A total of 4789 patients underwent cardiac surgery in participating centers during the study period. Of these, 189 subjects (3.9%) had poor preoperative LVEF. Poor LVEF was associated with postoperative mortality (adjusted OR 2.761, 95% CI 1.763-4.323, p < 0.001). Based on types of surgery, LVEF had a significant association with mortality only in CABG patients, while there was no such association in valve surgery and inconclusive in congenital surgery patients. Other significant independent predictors of in-hospital mortality included age more than 65 years old, non-elective surgery, the complexity of procedures, history of cardiac surgery, organ failure, CARE score ≥ 3, NYHA class ≥ III, and poor right ventricular function. Conclusion: Patients with low preoperative LVEF undergoing open-heart surgery had a higher risk of postoperative mortality. Cardiac surgery can be performed with acceptable mortality rates. Accurate selection of patients, risk/benefit evaluation, and planning of surgical and anesthesiological management are mandatory to improve outcomes.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Less residual paralysis in recovery room was demonstrated when train-of-four (TOF) monitoring was applied. The aim of this study was to know whether optimisation of neostigmine reversal without TOF monitoring was equivalent to reversal using TOF monitoring. METHODS: Seventy two patients, aged 18-60 years, undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia (sevoflurane and rocuronium) with intubation were randomised into two interventions: an optimised neostigmine reversal strategy without TOF monitoring (group A, n = 36) and a neostigmine reversal strategy using quantitative TOF monitoring (group B, n = 36). Per-protocol analysis was performed to compare incidence of residual paralysis in the recovery room between the two groups. RESULTS: Six residual paralyses occurred in group A in the recovery room, whereas one case occurred in group B. The equivalence test showed that the 95% confidence interval of this study was outside the range of equivalence margin (15%). The absolute difference was 13.9%: standard error (SE) =0.068 (P = 0.107; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1%, 27.2%). No subjects had TOF ratio <0.70 in the recovery room. The TOF ratio in the recovery room did not differ between the two groups (mean difference: -2.58; P = 0.05; 95% CI: -5.20, 0.29). One respiratory adverse event occurred in this study. CONCLUSION: An optimised reversal strategy without TOF monitoring is not equivalent to a reversal strategy based on quantitative TOF monitoring. TOF monitoring should be used whenever applicable, although neostigmine is optimised.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Patients with congenital heart disease require surgery to correct the cardiac defect they had in order to prevent heart failure. Unfortunately, data regarding outcome of adult CHD in Indonesia is still limited. In contrast with developed countries, many congenital heart surgery patients in developing countries are adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate the outcomes of cardiac surgery procedures among adult congenital heart disease patients, and what factors that might influence the outcome of surgery. METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on adult congenital heart disease patients undergoing cardiac surgery at Dr. Sardjito Hospital between April 2018 and March 2019. Variables included in the study were demographic characteristics, laboratory test results, comorbidities, premedication, Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) and ischemia duration were included in the analysis. Outcomes were in-hospital mortality, hospital length of stay, and ICU length of stay. RESULTS: A total of 25 congenital heart disease patients [19 Atrial Septeal Defect (ASD) patients, and 6 Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) patients] underwent a cardiac surgery procedure at Dr. Sardjito Hospital during the study period. Mean age was 31 ± 14.92 years. The majority of patients had pulmonary hypertension. During the study period, none of the patients died during postoperative care in the hospital, mean hospital length of stay (LOS) was 8.35 ± 3.39 days and ICU LOS was 26.53 ± 11.33 h. CONCLUSION: Surgery in adult patients with congenital heart disease may be successfully performed with low morbidity and mortality.
