Abstract

Background: Persistent postoperative pain continues to be an underrecognized complication. We examined the prevalence of and risk factors for this type of pain after cardiac surgery. Methods: We enrolled patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass grafting or valve replacement, or both, from Feb. 8, 2005, to Sept. 1, 2009. Validated measures were used to assess (a) preoperative anxiety and depression, tendency to catastrophize in the face of pain, health-related quality of life and presence of persistent pain; (b) pain intensity and interference in the first postoperative week; and (c) presence and intensity of persistent postoperative pain at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. The primary outcome was the presence of persistent postoperative pain during 24 months of follow-up. Results: A total of 1247 patients completed the preoperative assessment. Follow-up retention rates at 3 and 24 months were 84% and 78%, respectively. The prevalence of persistent postoperative pain decreased significantly over time, from 40.1% at 3 months to 22.1% at 6 months, 16.5% at 12 months and 9.5% at 24 months; the pain was rated as moderate to severe in 3.6% at 24 months. Acute postoperative pain predicted both the presence and severity of persistent postoperative pain. The more intense the pain during the first week after surgery and the more it interfered with functioning, the more likely the patients were to report persistent postoperative pain. Pre-existing persistent pain and increased preoperative anxiety also predicted the presence of persistent postoperative pain. Interpretation: Persistent postoperative pain of nonanginal origin after cardiac surgery affected a substantial proportion of the study population. Future research is needed to determine whether interventions to modify certain risk factors, such as preoperative anxiety and the severity of pain before and immediately after surgery, may help to minimize or prevent persistent postoperative pain., Postoperative pain that persists beyond the normal time for tissue healing (> 3 mo) is increasingly recognized as an important complication after various types of surgery and can have serious [...]

39. Strategic Mobility: An Expanded View with Focus on Readiness and Sustainability

Author

ARMY WAR COLL CARLISLE BARRACKS PA, Baskett, Roger D., ARMY WAR COLL CARLISLE BARRACKS PA, and Baskett, Roger D.

Abstract

Strategic mobility is a phrase often used in today's military jargon. In fact, strategic mobility is an integral part of the military strategy supporting the national security interests of the United States. When most military personnel think of strategic mobility, they usually define the concept in terms of air lift and sealift capability. The Secretary of Defense in his 1990 Joint Military Net Assessment to the U.S. Congress refers to strategic mobility as a strategic lift triad of airlift, sealift, and prepositioning. Certainly these three aspects of strategic mobility are crucial to a viable force projection capability. This paper focuses on what I believe are the two key concepts that most accurately describe strategic mobility--readiness and sustainability. Two cases studies are developed to serve as points of reference in explaining how readiness and sustainability combine to form strategic mobility. The first case study describes how the United Kingdom projected a military force to the South Atlantic in response to the Falkland Islands' crisis in 1982. The second case study depicts the United States' military deployment to Saudi Arabia following the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in August 1990. Following the case studies, an analysis of strategic mobility is presented.

40. Pulmonary artery to distal bypass for surgery on the descending thoracic aorta.

Author

Kalavrouziotis, Dimitri, Baskett, Roger J F, and Sullivan, John A P

Abstract

A variety of extracorporeal techniques have been described in surgery of the descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aorta. We describe an operative approach involving the cannulation of the pulmonary artery for venous drainage in 12 patients undergoing descending thoracic aortic surgery. In-hospital mortality was 17%; there were no in-hospital deaths for elective cases. There were no cases of post-operative paraplegia. Cannulation of the pulmonary artery is a safe and technically simple means of providing venous drainage during cardiopulmonary bypass in aortic surgery. This is an effective approach to distal perfusion in aortic surgery that is associated with excellent flows and avoids cannulating the left side of the heart.

42. Serotonin syndrome following cardiac surgery.

Author

Shanmugam, Ganesh, Kent, Blaine, Alsaiwadi, Turki, and Baskett, Roger

Abstract

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely used to treat depression. We report a case of serotonin syndrome following cardiac surgery. This syndrome is rare in the cardiac literature. The clinical features, diagnosis and management of this unusual syndrome are described. In patients with polypharmacy, it is important to take cognisance of serotonergic antidepressants and anticipate their potential interactions with drugs used peri-operatively. Early recognition and treatment is important as this condition is potentially fatal.

Abstract

Abstract: Objective: Diffuse coronary artery disease jeopardizes myocardium, increasing surgical mortality in primary coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We sought to determine the impact of diffuseness on pre- and post-discharge outcomes for both primary and reoperative CABG (REOP). Methods: Using a validated system for measuring diffuseness of coronary disease, preoperative angiograms were scored for primary CABG (n =792) and REOP cases (n =268) performed 1997–2004. A diffuseness score (DS)>18 was defined as elevated. In-hospital mortality, intermediate-term survival, and in-hospital composite outcome (COMP) (one or more of: mortality, stroke, MI, deep sternal infection, sepsis, IABP insertion, or return to OR) were examined. Results: In-hospital mortality and COMP for patients with DS>18 were significantly higher (7.9% vs 2.4%, p <0.0001), (17.8% vs 9.2%, p <0.0001). DS (mean±SD) was higher in REOP cases than primary CABG (18.9±7.1 vs 14.4±6.0, p <0.0001). By multivariate analysis, DS>18 (OR 2.00, 95%CI, 1.20–3.32, p =0.008) and REOP (OR 2.40, 95%CI, 1.53–3.77, p <0.0001) were independently associated with COMP. Using propensity scores 82% of cases with DS>18 (n =289) were matched 1:1 to cases with DS≤18. In-hospital mortality and COMP were significantly higher for cases with DS>18 (6.9% vs 2.8%, p =0.02), (16.6% vs 10.4%, p =0.03). Comparing cases with DS≤18 versus DS>18 and primary CABG versus REOP, survival at 2 years was 92.1% versus 84.5% (p =0.001) and 92.7% versus 82.7% (p <0.0001), respectively. Conclusions: Diffuse coronary artery disease is an important predictor of morbidity and mortality in primary and REOP CABG patients, and should be considered in both individual patient assessment and risk adjustment.

Abstract

Background: After coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients are at high risk for disease progression and future cardiac events. Risk factor control can reduce subsequent clinical events and mortality. The appropriateness of cardiovascular risk factor management in CABG patients is largely unknown., Objectives: To evaluate the presence of cardiovascular risk factors, their treatment and the adequacy of that treatment in patients just before elective CABG PATIENTS AND METHODS: Over a six-month period in 1999, 120 patients who underwent elective CABG at a single centre were assessed. All patients were assessed for the presence of important, known, modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (smoking, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity and diabetes), and the adequacy of the control of these risk factors, as determined by published consensus conference guidelines., Results: Ninety-five per cent of patients were receiving treatment for their risk factors. Twenty of 86 patients had their hyperlipidemia controlled, only 10 of 36 patients with diabetes had their glucose well controlled, 56 of 82 patients had adequate control of their hypertension, 21 of 120 patients were current smokers, 78 of 120 patients were obese and only 13 of 120 patients had all risk factors under control., Conclusions: As expected, the prevalence of all the risk factors was very high. Despite a high level of medical treatment, risk factor management was very poor. More effort needs to go into active, long term management, and patient education and motivation, if any substantial progress is to be made in reducing future cardiac events in patients after CABG.
