RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Postoperative pain after cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) is important. It appears essential to reduce postoperative pain and morphine consumption. METHODS: Retrospective study in a university hospital comparing patient benefiting from CRS-HIPEC under opioid-free anesthesia (OFA; dexmedetomidine) to those anesthetized with opioid anesthesia (OA; remifentanil) using a propensity score matching method. The main objective was the impact of OFA on postoperative morphine consumption in the first 24 h after surgery. RESULTS: 102 patients were included, matching on the propensity score allowed selecting 34 unique pairs analyzed. Morphine consumption was lower in the OFA group than in the OA group (3.0 [0.00-11.0] mg/24 h vs. 13.0 [2.5-25.0] mg/24 h; p = 0.02). In multivariable analysis, OFA was associated with a reduction of 7.2 [0.5-13.9] mg of postoperative morphine (p = 0.04). The rate of renal failure with a KDIGO-score > 1 was lower in the OFA group than in the OA group (12% vs. 38%; p = 0.01). There was no difference between groups concerning length of surgery/anesthesia, norepinephrine infusion, volume of fluid therapy, post-operative complications, rehospitalization or ICU readmission within 90 days, mortality, and postoperative rehabilitation. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that OFA for CRS-HIPEC patients appears safe and is associated with less postoperative morphine use and acute kidney injury.

BACKGROUND: With the generalization of social network use by health care workers, we observe the emergence of breaches in medical confidentiality. Our objective was to determine, among anesthesiology and intensive care health care workers, the rate of medical confidentiality breaches among professional tweets. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of public Twitter data available through the official Twitter application program interface. The profiles of anesthesiology and intensive care professionals were identified thanks to keywords in their biography. All the tweets with a photograph and all the text-only tweets containing at least one specific keyword related to anesthesiology or intensive care were extracted. We selected only the tweets with a health care-related character. Then, we analyzed 10% of the tweets with a photograph and 10% of the text-only tweets extracted and noted those presenting a breach of medical confidentiality. RESULTS: After a first screening of 12,705 accounts, we manually analyzed 431 tweets with photograph(s) and 9000 text-only tweets from 1831 accounts. We found 44 (10.2%) breaches of medical confidentiality among the photographs and 76 (0.8%) among text-only tweets. These 120 problematic tweets came from 96 profiles (96/1831; 5.2%); 3.7% of North American profiles breached medical confidentiality versus 6.3% of profiles from other areas; P = .03. When comparing the distribution of the number of followers and tweets, accounts with breach of medical confidentiality tweets had more tweets and followers than profiles without (both P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS: We found a significant proportion of tweets with breach of medical confidentiality among anesthesiology and intensive care professionals accounts.

Maxillofacial trauma is still very common in France with possible involvement of all face bones. Outpatient surgery is an axis strongly put forward by the public authorities. The aim of this study is to establish a current state in the outpatient management of facial fractures in France in 2019 before COVID infection. A closed and semi-open-ended questionnaire was sent to French hospitals treating facial fractures in order to evaluate current and possible future practices in terms of outpatient and perioperative management. Data extracted from the Program for giving Medical significance to Information Systems (PMSI) thanks to the Agency for Information on Hospital Care (ATIH) were also studied to obtain proportions of outpatient care by department. About the questionnaire 43 replies were received. Nasal fractures were the only type of fracture having a minimum average length of stay below 24hours (12.00±16.65) as well as an actual average length of stay (14.22±24.24). Concerning data extracted from the PMSI, 14510 stays were found. Currently only nasal fractures and zygomatic arch fractures requiring simple reduction without osteosynthesis are performed on an outpatient basis. Mandibular fractures could be performed as an outpatient procedure. Access to the operating room and organizational problems specific to each center are factors that limit the development of outpatient management of these facial fractures. Some incompressible parameters such as the monitoring required following the management of these fractures as well as the patients' comorbidities must be taken into account.

BACKGROUND: The Minto pharmacokinetic model is used for target-controlled infusion of remifentanil. The reliability of this model has never been evaluated during normothermic cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The aim of this study was to assess the predictive performance of the model during CPB to determine its reliability during cardiac surgery. METHODS: This was a single-centre observational study. Arterial blood samples were drawn at five time points: T1, after tracheal intubation; T2, immediately before CPB; T3, 10 min after starting CPB; T4, 45 min after starting CPB; T5, 10 min after weaning off CPB. Prediction error (PE) and absolute prediction error (APE) were calculated for each sample and used to determine median prediction error (MDPE) and median absolute prediction error (MDAPE) per patient. Risk factors for APE >30% were assessed using multivariable analysis. Results are presented as medians with inter-quartile ranges. RESULTS: Fifty-eight patients with 283 blood samples (110 during CPB) were included. In the pre-CPB period, MDPE and MDAPE were -17.3 [-32.9 to 2.3] and 24.6 [12-37.7]%, whereas during CPB, they were -1.8 [-15.6 to 11.1] and 14.0 [6.74-27.1]%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between measured and predicted remifentanil plasma concentrations during CPB. Age, preoperative albumin concentrations, temperature, and haemodilution were not independently associated with MDAPE >30%. CONCLUSIONS: The Minto model accurately predicts plasma remifentanil concentrations during cardiac surgery with CPB. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: 2017-A03153-50.

BACKGROUND: The time allocated to the preanesthesia consultation (PAC) of a patient undergoing an elective surgical procedure is an important factor to optimize consultation sessions. The main objective of this study was to build a model predictive of the duration of the PAC. METHODS: We prospectively studied 1007 patients undergoing a PAC from January 2016 to June 2018 in 4 different hospitals. A general linear model was fitted to predict the overall duration of the PAC. Secondary models predicted the time spent on clinical evaluation and the time assigned to delivering information. RESULTS: After exclusion of 40 patients with major data inconsistencies, the mean (standard deviation [SD]) overall duration of the PAC was 11.2 (5.8) minutes, split into 6.8 (4.1) minutes of information and 4.4 (2.7) minutes of clinical evaluation. It was, respectively, 11.4 (5.9), 6.9 (4.2), and 4.4 (2.7) in the 924 patients ≥16 years of age and, respectively, 8.3 (2.3), 4.3 (1.8), and 4.1 (1.8) in 43 children. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, the number of comorbidities or treatment, surgery discipline, and context (ambulatory, conventional hospitalization, and intensive care unit) were significantly correlated to PAC time. In the 924 adult patients, the models had an R2 adjusted for overfitting at 0.47 for the total duration of PAC, 0.45 for the clinical examination time, and 0.24 for the information time. The estimated residual standard deviations were, respectively, 4.3, 3.1, and 2.7 minutes. CONCLUSIONS: The predictive performances of the model explaining the overall duration of PAC were average (R2 = 0.47) and should be confirmed by further studies to use it for optimizing the organization of the consultation by individualizing the time dedicated to each consultation.

BACKGROUND: Home pain remains the most common complication in outpatient surgery. Optimal management requires good information and early availability of analgesics. The main objective of this randomized controlled trial was to compare the effects of pre- vs postoperative analgesic instruction and prescription on postoperative home pain. METHODS: Patients were randomized into an anesthesia consultation group (AC group) and a standard postoperative group (POP group). The AC group and the POP group received analgesic prescription and instruction during the anesthesia consultation and after surgery, respectively. The primary outcome was the incidence of home pain on postopertive day one (D1). Home pain was defined by at least one episode with a numeric rating scale score > 3/10 at rest. Treatment compliance and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) were also assessed on D1 and postoperative day 7 (D7). RESULTS: One hundred and eighty-six patients were included between May 2017 and May 2018 at Rouen University Hospital, France. Ninety-four patients were randomized to the AC group and 92 to the POP group. On D1, the incidence of pain was 23/94 (24%) in the AC group and 44/92 (48%) in the POP group (P < 0.001). On D1, the rate of treatment compliance was significantly higher in the AC group than in the POP group (85% vs 69%; P = 0.02). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of pain or treatment compliance between groups on D7 or in PONV on D1 and on D7. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative analgesic instruction and prescription during anesthesia consultation reduces the incidence of early postoperative home pain in outpatient surgery.

RéSUMé: CONTEXTE: La douleur à la maison demeure la complication la plus fréquente après une chirurgie ambulatoire. Une prise en charge optimale nécessite de bonnes informations et la disponibilité précoce d'analgésiques. L'objectif principal de cette étude randomisée contrôlée était de comparer les effets d'instructions et d'une prescription pré- vs postopératoires d'analgésiques sur la douleur postopératoire à la maison. MéTHODE: Les patients ont été randomisés dans un groupe de consultation pré-anesthésique (groupe pré) et un groupe postopératoire standard (groupe post). Le groupe pré et le groupe post ont reçu une prescription d'analgésiques ainsi que les instructions s'y rattachant pendant la consultation en anesthésie préopératoire et après la chirurgie, respectivement. Le critère d'évaluation principal était l'incidence de douleur à la maison au premier jour postopératoire (post-op 1). La douleur à domicile était définie par un épisode de douleur ou plus avec un score > 3/10 au repos sur l'échelle d'évaluation numérique. L'observance du traitement et les nausées et vomissements postopératoires (NVPO) ont également été évalués les jours post-op 1 et 7. RéSULTATS: Cent quatre-vingt-six patients ont été inclus entre mai 2017 et mai 2018 au Centre hospitalier universitaire de Rouen. Quatre-vingt-quatorze patients ont été randomisés au groupe pré et 92 au groupe post. Au jour post-op 1, l'incidence de la douleur était de 23/94 (24 %) dans le groupe pré et de 44/92 (48 %) dans le groupe post (P < 0,001). Au jour post-op 1, le taux d'observance du traitement était significativement plus élevé dans le groupe pré que dans le groupe post (85 % vs 69 %; P = 0,02). Il n'y avait aucune différence statistiquement significative dans l'incidence de douleur ou d'observance du traitement entre les groupes au jour post-op 7 ou dans les NVPO aux jours post-op 1 et 7. CONCLUSION: L'instruction et la prescription préopératoires d'analgésiques pendant la consultation anesthésique préopératoire réduisent l'incidence de la douleur postopératoire précoce à domicile en chirurgie ambulatoire.

The routine use of mechanical circulatory support during lung transplantation (LTx) is still controversial. The use of prophylactic human albumin (HA) or hypertonic sodium lactate (HSL) prime in mechanical circulatory support during LTx could prevent ischemia−reperfusion (IR) injuries and pulmonary endothelial dysfunction and thus prevent the development of pulmonary graft dysfunction. The objective was to investigate the impact of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) priming with HA and HSL compared to a CPB prime with Gelofusine (GF) on pulmonary endothelial dysfunction in a lung IR rat model. Rats were assigned to four groups: IR-CPB-GF group, IR-CPB-HA group, IR-CPB-HSL group and a sham group. The study of pulmonary vascular reactivity by wire myograph was the primary outcome. Glycocalyx degradation (syndecan-1 and heparan) was also assessed by ELISA and electron microscopy, systemic and pulmonary inflammation by ELISA (IL-1ß, IL-10, and TNF-α) and immunohistochemistry. Clinical parameters were evaluated. We employed a CPB model with three different primings, permitting femoral−femoral assistance with left pulmonary hilum ischemia for IR. Pulmonary endothelium-dependent relaxation to acetylcholine was significantly decreased in the IR-CPB-GF group (11.9 ± 6.2%) compared to the IR-CPB-HA group (52.8 ± 5.2%, p < 0.0001), the IR-CPB-HSL group (57.7 ± 6.3%, p < 0.0001) and the sham group (80.8 ± 6.5%, p < 0.0001). We did not observe any difference between the groups concerning glycocalyx degradation, and systemic or tissular inflammation. The IR-CPB-HSL group needed more vascular filling and developed significantly more pulmonary edema than the IR-CPB-GF group and the IR-CPB-HA group. Using HA as a prime in CPB during Ltx could decrease pulmonary endothelial dysfunction's IR-mediated effects. No effects of HA were found on inflammation.

BACKGROUND: Social networks are now essential tools for promoting research and researchers. However, there is no study investigating the link between presence or not on professional social networks and scientific publication or citation for a given researcher. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to study the link between professional presence on social networks and scientific publications/citations among anesthesia researchers. METHODS: We included all the French full professors and associate professors of anesthesia. We analyzed their presence on the social networks Twitter (professional account with ≥1 tweet over the 6 previous months) and ResearchGate. We extracted their bibliometric parameters for the 2016-2020 period via the Web of Science Core Collection (Clarivate Analytics) database in the Science Citation Index-Expanded index. RESULTS: A total of 162 researchers were analyzed; 42 (25.9%) had an active Twitter account and 110 (67.9%) a ResearchGate account. There was no difference between associate professors and full professors regarding active presence on Twitter (8/23 [35%] vs. 34/139 [24.5%], respectively; P=.31) or ResearchGate (15/23 [65%] vs. 95/139 [68.3%], respectively; P=.81). Researchers with an active Twitter account (median [IQR]) had more scientific publications (45 [28-61] vs. 26 [12-41]; P<.001), a higher h-index (12 [8-16] vs. 8 [5-11]; P<.001), a higher number of citations per publication (12.54 [9.65-21.8] vs. 10.63 [5.67-16.10]; P=.01), and a higher number of citations (563 [321-896] vs. 263 [105-484]; P<.001). Researchers with a ResearchGate account (median [IQR]) had more scientific publications (33 [17-47] vs. 26 [9-43]; P=.03) and a higher h-index (9 [6-13] vs. 8 [3-11]; P=.03). There was no difference between researchers with a ResearchGate account and those without it concerning the number of citations per publication and overall number of citations. In multivariate analysis including sex, academic status, and presence on social networks, the presence on Twitter was associated with the number of publications (ß=20.2; P<.001), the number of citations (ß=494.5; P<.001), and the h-index (ß=4.5; P<.001). CONCLUSIONS: Among French anesthesia researchers, an active presence on Twitter is associated with higher scientific publication and citations.

BACKGROUND: Recent studies suggest that female researchers are less visible on social media. The objective of this observational work was to compare the use of professional social networks between male and female anaesthesia researchers. METHODS: Among four anaesthesia journals, we analysed the first/last authors (FA/LA) of the most frequently cited articles in 2016-2017 and the authors who published more than one article per year between 2013 and 2018 (prolific authors). We compared the use of the professional social networks Twitter, LinkedIn, and ResearchGate by the selected authors and analysed the proportion of women in FA and LA position. The variables are presented as median (inter-quartile range). RESULTS: The analysis included 260 FA, 232 LA, and 297 prolific authors. Despite similar declared skills and number of citations, women had lower scientific reputation scores on ResearchGate (RG score: 32.0 [24.4-41.1] vs 20.3 [15.1-29.2]; P<0.0001 in the FA group; 39.3 [34.3-43.4] vs 35.7 [30.3-39.5], P<0.01 in the LA group; and 41.5 [35.6-45.7] vs 36.8 [28.1-42.7], P<0.01 in the prolific group). In all groups, women were significantly less followed on ResearchGate than men. In the three groups, the Twitter (22.7%, 25.0%, and 23.6%, respectively) and LinkedIn (59.2%, 56.5%, and 62.3%, respectively) usage rate were similar with no difference between men and women in each group. Of the 260 articles included, 94 (36.2%) manuscripts had female FA, whereas 41 (15.8%) had female LA. CONCLUSION: In anaesthesia, the visibility of female researchers on the social network dedicated to scientific research is lower than that of male researchers.

PURPOSE: Previous preclinical and preliminary clinical data suggest an appetite-stimulating effect of propofol compared with halogenated drugs. This study compared the effects of propofol with those of sevoflurane on recovery of hunger during the postoperative period. METHODS: Patients undergoing outpatient transvaginal oocyte retrieval were randomized to propofol-remifentanil (propofol group) or sevoflurane-remifentanil (sevoflurane group) anesthesia. The primary endpoint was the time before feeling hungry (≥ 50/100 mm on a visual analogue scale). Secondary endpoints included plasma levels of ghrelin, leptin, and insulin (ten minutes, one hour, and two hours after anesthesia), caloric intake at first feed, and discharge readiness time. RESULTS: In the 58 patients allocated to either the propofol or sevoflurane group, there was no difference in the median [interquartile range] recovery time of hunger (97 [75-138] vs 97 [80-140] min, respectively; median difference, 1; 95% confidence interval [CI], - 15 to 14; P = 0.91); caloric intake (245 [200-343] vs 260 [171-314] kcal; P = 0.39); or discharge readiness time (125 [85-153] vs 125 [95-174] min, P = 0.29). The groups showed no difference in crude plasma levels of ghrelin, leptin, and insulin at any time-point. When peptide plasma levels were expressed as a % change from baseline, there was a higher insulin plasma level one hour after anesthesia in the sevoflurane group (median difference, 4.9%; 95% CI, - 16.2 to 43.4) compared with the propofol group (median difference, - 21.2%; 95% CI, - 35.7 to 9.1; adjusted P = 0.01). CONCLUSION: Propofol did not accelerate the recovery of hunger compared with sevoflurane after outpatient minor surgery. Moreover, propofol did not have distinguishable effects on other clinical or biological parameters associated with food intake.

RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: Des données précliniques et cliniques préliminaires suggèrent un effet de stimulation de l'appétit du propofol par rapport aux gaz halogénés. Cette étude a comparé les effets du propofol à ceux du sévoflurane sur le rétablissement de la faim en période postopératoire. MéTHODE: Des patientes subissant un prélèvement des ovocytes par voie transvaginale ont été randomisées à recevoir une anesthésie à base de propofol et rémifentanil (groupe propofol) ou de sévoflurane et rémifentanil (groupe sévoflurane). Le critère d'évaluation principal était la période de temps avant de ressentir de la faim (≥ 50/100 mm sur une échelle visuelle analogique). Les critères d'évaluation secondaires comprenaient les taux plasmatiques de ghréline, de leptine et d'insuline (à dix minutes, une heure et deux heures après l'anesthésie), l'apport calorique lors du premier repas, et le moment où les patientes étaient prêtes à recevoir leur congé. RéSULTATS: Chez les 58 patientes allouées aux groupes propofol ou sévoflurane, aucune différence n'a été observée dans le temps médian [écart interquartile (ÉIQ)] jusqu'à retour de la faim (97 [75138] vs 97 [80140] min, respectivement; différence médiane, 1; intervalle de confiance [IC] 95 %, − 15 à 14; P = 0,91), ni dans l'apport calorique (245 [200343] vs 260 [171314] kcal; P = 0,39) ou le moment où elles étaient prêtes à recevoir leur congé (125 [85-153] vs 125 [95-174] min, P = 0,29). Les groupes n'ont démontré aucune différence en matière de taux plasmatiques de ghréline, de leptine et d'insuline à quelque point dans le temps que ce soit. Lorsque les taux plasmatiques de peptides étaient exprimés en % de changement par rapport aux taux de base, on a observé un taux plasmatique plus élevé d'insuline une heure après l'anesthésie dans le groupe sévoflurane (différence médiane, 4,9 %; IC 95 %, − 16,2 à 43,4) par rapport au groupe propofol (différence médiane, − 21,2 %, IC 95 %, − 35,7 à 9,1; P ajusté = 0,01). CONCLUSION: Le propofol n'a pas accéléré le retour de la faim par rapport au sévoflurane après une chirurgie ambulatoire mineure. De plus, le propofol n'a pas démontré d'effets distinctifs sur d'autres paramètres cliniques ou biologiques associés à l'ingestion de nourriture.

BACKGROUND: We compared the effects of etomidate and ketamine on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis during sepsis. METHODS: Mice (n = 5/group) were injected intraperitoneally with lipopolysaccharide (10 mg/kg) and 6 h later randomized to receive ketamine (100 mg/kg), etomidate (30 mg/kg), or saline. At two time points (12 and 48 h), messenger RNA levels of hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormone, pituitary proopiomelanocortin, and four adrenal enzymes (P450 side-chain cleavage, 3ß-hydroxysteroid deshydrogenase, 21-hydroxylase, and 11ß-hydroxylase) were measured by in situ hybridization (results are presented as optical density), and plasma levels of corticosterone and adrenocorticotropin hormones were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (mean ± SD). RESULTS: At 12 h, lipopolysaccharide induced an overexpression of corticotropin-releasing hormone (32 ± 5 vs. 18 ± 6, P < 0.01), proopiomelanocortin (21 ± 3 vs. 8 ± 0.9, P < 0.0001), P450 side-chain cleavage (32 ± 4 vs. 23 ± 10, P < 0.05), 21-hydroxylase (17 ± 5 vs. 12 ± 2, P < 0.05), and 11ß-hydroxylase (11 ± 4 vs. 6 ± 0.5, P = 0.001), and an elevation of corticosterone (642 ± 165 vs. 98.3 ± 63 ng/ml, P < 0.0001). Etomidate and ketamine reduced P450 side-chain cleavage (19 ± 7 and 19 ± 3 vs. 32 ± 4, P < 0.01), 21-hydroxylase (8 ± 0.8 and 8 ± 1 vs. 17 ± 5, P < 0.001), 11ß-hydroxylase (4 ± 0.5 and 7 ± 1 vs. 11 ± 4, P < 0.001 and P < 0.05), and corticosterone (413 ± 189 and 260 ± 161 vs. 642 ± 165 ng/ml, P < 0.05 and P < 0.01). Ketamine also inhibited adrenocorticotropin hormone production (2.5 ± 3.6 vs. 36 ± 15 pg/ml, P < 0.05). At 48 h, all four adrenal enzymes were down-regulated by lipopolysaccharide administration with corticosterone levels similar to the control group. Ketamine and etomidate did not modify corticosterone plasma levels. CONCLUSIONS: Our endotoxemic model induces an initial activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, followed by a secondary inhibition of adrenal steroidogenesis processes. Ketamine and etomidate inhibit the enzyme expression and activity of the adrenal gland at the early stage.

Objective: Bleeding after cardiac surgery leads to poor outcomes. The objective of the study was to build the PeriOperative Bleeding Score in Cardiac surgery (POBS-Card) to predict bleeding after cardiac surgery. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study in 2 academic hospitals (2016-2019). Inclusion criteria were adult patients after cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. Exclusion criteria were heart transplantation, assistance, aortic dissection, and preoperative hemostasis diseases. Bleeding was defined by the universal definition for perioperative bleeding score ≥2. POBS-Card score was built using multivariate regression (derivation cohort, one center). The performance diagnosis was assessed using the area under the curve in a validation cohort (2 centers) and compared with other scores. Results: In total, 1704 patients were included in the derivation cohort, 344 (20%) with bleeding. Preoperative factors were body mass index <25 kg/m2 (odds ratio [OR], 1.48 [1.14-1.93]), type of surgery (redo: OR, 1.76 [1.07-2.82]; combined: OR, 1.81 [1.19-2.74]; ascendant aorta: OR, 1.56 [1.02-2.38]), ongoing antiplatelet therapy (single: OR, 1.50 [1.09-2.05]; double: OR, 2.00 [1.15-3.37]), activated thromboplastin time ratio >1.2 (OR, 1.44 [1.03-1.99]), prothrombin ratio <60% (OR, 1.91 [1.21-2.97]), platelet count <150 g/L (OR, 1.74 [1.17-2.57]), and fibrinogen <3 g/L (OR, 1.33 [1.02-1.73]). In the validation cohort of 597 patients, the area under the curve was 0.645 [0.605-0.683] and was superior to other scores (WILL-BLEED, Papworth, TRUST, TRACK). A threshold >14 predicted bleeding with a sensitivity of 50% and a specificity of 73%. Conclusions: POBS-Card score was superior to other scores in predicting severe bleeding after cardiac surgery. Performances remained modest, questioning the place of these scores in the perioperative strategy of bleeding-sparing.
RESUMO
Background: Postoperative complications may occur after major lung surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. The main objective of this study was to assess the relevance of preoperative Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ) to predict postoperative complications after major lung resection for any indication. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted in the Thoracic Surgery Department of Rouen University Hospital from November 21st, 2022, to June 2nd, 2023. Patients aged ≥18 years who underwent major lung resection for any indications and filled an LCQ self-questionnaire were included. Results: Seventy-one patients were eligible for our study. One patient was lost to follow-up upon hospital discharge. Nineteen (27.1%) postoperative complications of grade ≥2 according to the Clavien-Dindo classification were observed. The mean LCQ total score was 18.11±2.56. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the LCQ result to predict postoperative complications of grade ≥2 within 30 days following the surgical intervention was 0.60 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.45, 0.75]. Conclusions: This study failed to demonstrate the relevance of a preoperative LCQ to predict postoperative complications after major lung surgery. However, the statistical precision of this study was insufficient to show a moderate predictive performance. Further studies conducted in larger populations are needed.
RESUMO
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is now described as an extremely heterogeneous disease in its clinical presentation, histology, molecular characteristics, and patient conditions. Over the past 20 years, the management of lung cancer has evolved with positive results. Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment landscape for NSCLC in both metastatic and locally advanced stages. The identification of molecular alterations in NSCLC has also allowed the development of targeted therapies, which provide better outcomes than chemotherapy in selected patients. However, patients usually develop acquired resistance to these treatments. On the other hand, thoracic surgery has progressed thanks to minimally invasive procedures, pre-habilitation and enhanced recovery after surgery. Moreover, within thoracic surgery, precision surgery considers the patient and his/her disease in their entirety to offer the best oncologic strategy. Surgeons support patients from pre-operative rehabilitation to surgery and beyond. They are involved in post-treatment follow-up and lung cancer recurrence. When conventional therapies are no longer effective, salvage surgery can be performed on selected patients.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The prevention of respiratory complications is a major issue after thoracic surgery for lung cancer, and requires adequate post-operative pain management. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) may decrease post-operative pain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of ESPB on pain after video or robot-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS or RATS). METHODS: The main outcome of this retrospective study with a propensity score analysis (PSA) was to compare the post-operative pain at 24 h at rest and at cough between a group that received ESPB and a group that received paravertebral block (PVB). Post-operative morphine consumption at 24 h and complications were also assessed. RESULTS: One hundred and seven patients were included: 54 in the ESPB group and 53 in the PVB group. The post-operative median pain score at rest and cough was lower in the ESPB group compared to the PVB group at 24 h (respectively, at rest 2 [1; 3.5] vs. 2 [0; 4], p = 0.0181, with PSA; ESPB -0.80 [-1.50; -0.10], p = 0.0255, and at cough (4 [3; 6] vs. 5 [4; 6], p = 0.0261, with PSA; ESPB -1.48 [-2.65; -0.31], p = 0.0135). There were no differences between groups concerning post-operative morphine consumption at 24 h and respiratory complications. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that ESPB is associated with less post-operative pain at 24 h than PVB after VATS or RATS for lung cancer. Furthermore, ESPB is an acceptable and safe alternative compared to PVB.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: Adequate pain management after thoracoscopic surgery is a major issue in the prevention of respiratory complications. The combination of the paravertebral block (PVB) with the serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) may decrease postoperative pain. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the combination of PVB and SAPB on the consumption of morphine and pain after video- or robot-assisted thoracic surgery. METHODS: The main objective of this randomized controlled trial was to compare the cumulative postoperative morphine consumption at 24 h between a group having PVB (PVB group) and a group having PVB and SAPB (PV-SAPB group). Postoperative pain at 6 and 24 h and morphine-related complications were also assessed. RESULTS: A total of 112 patients were included with 56 in each group. There was no difference in median cumulative morphine consumption at 24 h between the 2 groups (P = 0.1640). At 6 h, the median postoperative pain was higher in the PVB group compared to the PV-SAPB group (3 [0; 4] vs 2 [0; 3], P = 0.0231). There were no differences between the 2 groups for pain at 24 h and morphine-related complications. CONCLUSIONS: We did not find any difference in morphine consumption between the 2 groups. Our results suggest that the combination of PVB and SAPB for video-assisted thoracic surgery or robot-assisted thoracic surgery is safe effective and reliable and could be an alternative to PVB alone in certain indications.

BACKGROUND: The most frequent complication observed after ambulatory surgery is acute postoperative pain. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the late incidence of postoperative pain at 7 days after day surgery. METHODS: We retrospectively included patients who underwent day surgery under general or regional anesthesia and those who underwent local anesthesia in Rouen University Hospital from January 2018 to February 2020. Data collected were moderate-to-severe pain reports defined as numeric rating scale (NRS)>3/10 at 1 day (secondary end point) and 7 days (primary end point) after surgery. These data were collected using a semi-intelligent SMS text messaging platform to follow up with the patient at home after ambulatory surgery. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to analyze the risk factors for pain. RESULTS: We analyzed 6099 patients. On the day after the surgery, 5.2% (318/6099) of the patients presented with moderate-to-severe pain: 5.9% (248/4187) in the general or regional anesthesia group and 3.7% (70/1912) in the local anesthesia group. At 7 days after the surgery, 18.6% (1135/6099) of the patients presented with moderate-to-severe pain, including 21.3% (892/4187) of the patients in the general or regional anesthesia group and 12.7% (243/1912) of the patients in the local anesthesia group. General surgery (odds ratio [OR] 1.54, 95% CI 1.23-1.92; P<.01) and orthopedic surgery (OR 1.66, 95% CI 1.42-1.94; P<.01) were associated with more late postoperative pain risk. Male gender (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.57-0.76; P<.01), ophthalmology surgery (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.42-0.62; P<.01), and gynecologic surgery (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.50-0.88; P=.01) were associated with less late postoperative pain risk. The rate of emergency consultation or rehospitalization at 7 days after the surgery was 11.1% (679/6099). Late postoperative pain (OR 2.54, 95% CI 1.98-3.32; P<.001), general surgery (OR 2.15, 95% CI 1.65-2.81; P<.001), and urology surgery (OR 1.62, 95% CI 1.06-2.43; P=.02) increased the risk of emergency consultation or rehospitalization. Orthopedic surgery (OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.63-0.99; P=.04) and electroconvulsive therapy (OR 0.43, 95% CI 0.27-0.65; P<.001) were associated with less rates of emergency consultation or rehospitalization. CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows that postoperative pain at 7 days after ambulatory surgery was reported in more than 18% of the cases, which was also associated with an increase in the emergency consultation or rehospitalization rates.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Although the presence of medical societies on social networks (SNs) could be interesting for disseminating professional information, there is no study investigating their presence on SNs. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this viewpoint is to describe the worldwide presence and activity of national anesthesia societies on SNs. METHODS: This observational study assessed the active presence (≥1 post in the year preceding the collection date) of the World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists member societies on the SNs Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. We collected data concerning each anesthesia society on the World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists website. RESULTS: Among the 136 societies, 66 (48.5%) had an active presence on at least one SN. The most used SN was Facebook (n=60, 44.1%), followed by Twitter (n=37, 27.2%), YouTube (n=26, 19.1%), and Instagram (n=16, 11.8%). The SN with the largest number of followers was Facebook for 52 (78.8%) societies and Twitter for 12 (18.2%) societies. The number of followers was 361 (IQR 75-1806) on Twitter, 2494 (IQR 1049-5369) on Facebook, 1400 (IQR 303-3058) on Instagram, and 214 (IQR 33-955) on YouTube. There was a strong correlation between the number of posts and the number of followers on Twitter (r=0.95, 95% CI 0.91-0.97; P<.001), Instagram (r=0.83, 95% CI 0.58-0.94; P<.001), and YouTube (r=0.69, 95% CI 0.42-0.85; P<.001). According to the density of anesthetists in the country, there was no difference between societies with and without active SN accounts. CONCLUSIONS: Less than half of national anesthesia societies have at least one active account on SNs. Twitter and Facebook are the most used SNs.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Many studies explored the impact of ventilation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period with conflicting results. Functional residual capacity or End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) may be disturbed after cardiac surgery but the specific effects of CPB have not been studied. Our objective was to compare the effect of two ventilation strategies during CPB on EELV. METHODS: Observational single center study in a tertiary teaching hospital. Adult patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery by sternotomy were included. Maintenance of ventilation during CPB was left to the discretion of the medical team, with division between "ventilated" and "non-ventilated" groups afterwards. Iterative intra and postoperative measurements of EELV were carried out by nitrogen washin-washout technique. Main endpoint was EELV at the end of surgery. Secondary endpoints were EELV one hour after ICU admission, PaO2/FiO2 ratio, driving pressure, duration of mechanical ventilation and post-operative pulmonary complications. RESULTS: Forty consecutive patients were included, 20 in each group. EELV was not significantly different between the ventilated versus non-ventilated groups at the end of surgery (1796 ± 586 mL vs. 1844 ± 524 mL, p = 1) and one hour after ICU admission (2095 ± 562 vs. 2045 ± 476 mL, p = 1). No significant difference between the two groups was observed on PaO2/FiO2 ratio (end of surgery: 339 ± 149 vs. 304 ± 131, p = 0.8; one hour after ICU: 324 ± 115 vs. 329 ± 124, p = 1), driving pressure (end of surgery: 7 ± 1 vs. 8 ± 1 cmH2O, p = 0.3; one hour after ICU: 9 ± 3 vs. 9 ± 3 cmH2O), duration of mechanical ventilation (5.5 ± 4.8 vs 8.2 ± 10.0 h, p = 0.5), need postoperative respiratory support (2 vs. 1, p = 1), occurrence of pneumopathy (2 vs. 0, p = 0.5) and radiographic atelectasis (7 vs. 8, p = 1). CONCLUSION: No significant difference was observed in EELV after cardiac surgery between not ventilated and ventilated patients during CPB.
