Definition of Post-Op PulmonaryComplications
Pulmonary abnormality that producesidentifiable disease or dysfunction that isclinically significant and adversely affects the
clinical course

Categories of Clinically SignificantComplications
AtelectasisInfection, including bronchitis and pneumonia
Prolonged mechanical ventilation andrespiratory failureExacerbation of underlying chronic lung disease
Bronchospasm

Peri-operative lung physiology Thoracic and Abdominal Surgery
Vital capacity (VC) is reduced by 50 to 60 percent and mayremain decreased for up to one week Functional residual capacity (FRC) is reduced by about 30percent
Diaphragmatic dysfunction appears to play the most important role inthese changesReduction of the FRC below closing volumes contributes to the risk ofatelectasis, pneumonia, and ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) mismatching
Residual effects of anesthesia itself and postoperative
opioids both depress the respiratory drive
Inhibition of cough and impairment of mucociliary clearance-Increased risk of infection

Pre-operative Risk Assessment
Complete H&P is most important tool for evaluation & riskassesement
Significant risk factors should be identified
Physical examination should be directed toward evidence forobstructive lung disease Laboratory tests serve as adjuncts to the clinical evaluation andshould be obtained only in selected patients
Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) Arterial blood gas analysisChest radiographsExercise testing

Recommended Strategies
Preoperative StrategiesSmoking cessation for 8 weeksInhaled ipratropium for all patients with clinically significantCOPD
Inhaled beta-agonists for patients with COPD or asthma whohave wheezes or dyspneaPreoperative corticosteriods for patients with COPD orasthma who are not optimized to best baseline and whose
airway obstruction has not been maximally reducedDelay elective surgery if respiratory infection present
Antibiotics for patients with infected sputum

Recommended Strategies Cont.
Intraoperative StrategiesChoose alternative procedure lasting less than 3 to 4 hours when possibleMinimize duration of anesthesiaSurgery other than upper abdominal or thoracic whenpossibleChoose laparoscopic rather than open abdominal surgery
when possibleRegional anesthesia (nerve block) in very high-risk patientsEpidural or spinal anesthesia in lieu of general anesthesia inhigh risk patients
Avoid use of pancuronium as a muscle relaxant in high riskpatients

Recommended Strategies Cont.
Postoperative StrategiesDeep breathing exercises or incentive spirometry in high riskpatientsEpidural analgesia in lieu of parenteral opioids
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)

Perioperative Cardiac Risk
Each year approximately 50,000 patients haveperioperative MI’s, and about 40% of them willdieMost perioperative MIs occur without thetypical chest pain, due to analgesics after surgery,residual effects from the anesthesia, and otherperioperative painful stimuli

Periop Cardiac Risk
In studies evaluating incidence of MI aftergeneral anesthesia for patients who previouslyhad an MI within 3 months, there was a
reinfarction rate of 27-37%. Reinfarction was11-16% for those who had an MI 3-6 monthspreviously.Reinfarction rate remained stable at 5% forthose who had an MI >6 months previous tosurgery.

In 1977 Goldman and colleagues developed apreop cardiac risk index for patients undergoingnon-cardiac surgery. They reported nine
variables associated with an increased risk forperioperative cardiac complications.
Each risk factor was assigned a point score, andpatients were stratified into four risk categoriesbased on their total points.

Detsky’s Modified Cardiac RiskIndex
In 1986 Detsky and colleagues modified theoriginal multifactorial index by adding variablessuch as angina and pulmonary edema.Patients are stratified into three risk categoriesbased on their total points
