Abstract

Background: Inconsistent nomenclature and anatomical descriptions of regional anesthetic techniques hinder scientific communication and engender confusion; this in turn has implications for research, education and clinical implementation of regional anesthesia. Having produced standardized nomenclature for abdominal wall, paraspinal and chest wall regional anesthetic techniques, we aimed to similarly do so for upper and lower limb peripheral nerve blocks., Methods: We performed a three-round Delphi international consensus study to generate standardized names and anatomical descriptions of upper and lower limb regional anesthetic techniques. A long list of names and anatomical description of blocks of upper and lower extremities was produced by the members of the steering committee. Subsequently, two rounds of anonymized voting and commenting were followed by a third virtual round table to secure consensus for items that remained outstanding after the first and second rounds. As with previous methodology, strong consensus was defined as ≥75% agreement and weak consensus as 50%-74% agreement., Results: A total of 94, 91 and 65 collaborators participated in the first, second and third rounds, respectively. We achieved strong consensus for 38 names and 33 anatomical descriptions, and weak consensus for five anatomical descriptions. We agreed on a template for naming peripheral nerve blocks based on the name of the nerve and the anatomical location of the blockade and identified several areas for future research., Conclusions: We achieved consensus on nomenclature and anatomical descriptions of regional anesthetic techniques for upper and lower limb nerve blocks, and recommend using this framework in clinical and academic practice. This should improve research, teaching and learning of regional anesthesia to eventually improve patient care., Competing Interests: Competing interests: EA: grants from Swiss Academy for Anesthesia Research, Bbraun, Swiss National Science Foundation.

Abstract

The US Health and Human Services Pain Management Best Practices Inter-Agency Task Force initiated a public-private partnership which led to the publication of its report in 2019. The report emphasized the need for individualized, multimodal, and multidisciplinary approaches to pain management that decrease the over-reliance on opioids, increase access to care, and promote widespread education on pain and substance use disorders. The Task Force specifically called on specialty organizations to work together to develop evidence-based guidelines. In response to this report's recommendations, a consortium of 14 professional healthcare societies committed to a 2-year project to advance pain management for the surgical patient and improve opioid safety. The modified Delphi process included two rounds of electronic voting and culminated in a live virtual event in February 2021, during which seven common guiding principles were established for acute perioperative pain management. These principles should help to inform local action and future development of clinical practice recommendations., Competing Interests: Competing interests: JMS declares salary support from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan; research funding from Neuros Medical (Willoughby, OH, USA), Setpoint Medical (Valencia, CA, USA), and Medtronic (Dublin, Ireland; legal consulting for Yates, McLamb and Weyher, LLP (Raleigh, NC, USA).

105. Preoperative Risk Factor Score Predicts Malnutrition in Total Joint Arthroplasty Patients.

Abstract

Malnutrition is a modifiable risk factor for poor outcomes in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this study is to highlight risk factors for hypoalbuminemia and develop a predictive model that identifies patients at risk for this condition before THA or TKA. The study retrospectively reviewed the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database to analyze preoperative independent risk factors for a diagnosis of hypoalbuminemia in adult patients who underwent THA or TKA. These factors were used to create a preoperative risk model to predict hypoalbuminemia. Individuals with three or more risk factors in the seven-point model are predicted to have hypoalbuminemia in 20.4% of THA or 10.5% of TKA cases. Accurate identification of hypoalbuminemic patients may allow preoperative nutrition interventions to improve postoperative outcomes. (Journal of Surgical Orthopaedic Advances 28(2):97-103, 2019).
