ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Children with aerodigestive disorders often have many of the reported risk factors for development of perioperative respiratory adverse events. This study sought to evaluate the incidence of such events in this group of patients undergoing general anesthesia for "triple endoscopy" (flexible bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage, rigid laryngoscopy and bronchoscopy, and esophagogastroduodenoscopy) and to identify any patient-specific or procedure-specific risk factors associated with higher incidence of perioperative respiratory adverse events.METHODS:
We performed a retrospective chart review of children 18 years or younger who underwent triple endoscopy as part of an aerodigestive evaluation. Data collected from medical records included preoperative polysomnography, symptoms of acute respiratory illness, medical comorbidities, demographics, postoperative hospital or intensive care unit admission, and all respiratory events and interventions in the perioperative period. Patient-specific and procedure-specific factors were investigated via univariate analysis for any correlations with perioperative respiratory adverse events.RESULTS:
Of the 122 patients undergoing triple endoscopy, 69 (57%) experienced a perioperative respiratory adverse event. We found no difference in the incidence of perioperative respiratory adverse events among children with documented lung disease compared with those with no lung disease (OR 0.89, p = .8 95% CI 0.43, 1.8), and no significant difference between those children who had a respiratory illness at the time of surgery, 1-2 weeks prior, 3-4 weeks prior, and those with no preceding respiratory illness. A higher percentage of males had a perioperative respiratory adverse event, compared with females (OR 2.7, p = .01 95% CI 1.3, 5.09).CONCLUSION:
Patients undergoing triple endoscopy for evaluation of aerodigestive disorders at our institution experienced perioperative respiratory adverse events at a rate of 57%.Palavras-chave
