Abstract

Objective: The characteristics and outcomes of patients undergoing vascular surgery hospitalised and managed in Lombardy are described with a comparison of patients tested positive for COVID-19 (CV19-pos) vs. those tested negative (CV19-neg). Methods: This was a multicentre, retrospective, observational cohort study which involved all vascular surgery services in Lombardy, Northern Italy. Data were retrospectively merged into a combined dataset covering the nine weeks of the Italian COVID-19 pandemic phase 1 (8 March 2020 to 3 May 2020). The primary outcome was freedom from in hospital death, secondary outcomes were re-thrombosis rate after peripheral revascularisation, and freedom from post-operative complication. Results: Among 674 patients managed during the outbreak, 659 (97.8%) were included in the final analysis: 121 (18.4%) were CV19-pos. CV19-pos status was associated with a higher rate of complications (OR 4.5; p < .001, 95% CI 2.64 – 7.84), and a higher rate of re-thrombosis after peripheral arterial revascularisation (OR 2.2; p = .004, 95% CI 1.29 – 3.88). In hospital mortality was higher in CV19-pos patients (24.8% vs. 5.6%; OR 5.4, p < .001;95% CI 2.86 – 8.92). Binary logistic regression analysis identified CV19-pos status (OR 7.6; p < .001, 95% CI 3.75 – 15.28) and age > 80 years (OR 3.2; p = .001, 95% CI 1.61 – 6.57) to be predictors of in hospital death. Conclusion: In this experience of the vascular surgery group of Lombardy, COVID-19 infection was a marker of poor outcomes in terms of mortality and post-operative complications for patients undergoing vascular surgery treatments.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: To highlight clinical practice among referral (Hub, HH) or satellite (Spoke, SH) hospitals Vascular Surgery Units (VSUs) in Lombardy, during the COVID-19 pandemic "phase 1" period (March 8 - May 3, 2020). METHODS: The Vascular Surgery Group of Regione Lombardia Register, a real-word, multicenter, retrospective register was interrogated. All patients admitted with vascular disease were included. Patients' data on demographics, COVID-19 positivity, comorbidities and outcomes were extrapolated. Two cohorts were obtained: patients admitted to HH or SH. Primary endpoint was 30- day mortality rate. Secondary outcomes were 30-day complications and amputation (in case of peripheral artery disease [PAD]) rates. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to compare HH and SH groups and predictors of poor outcomes. RESULTS: During the study period, 659 vascular patients in 4 HH and 27 SH were analyzed. Among these, 321 (48.7%) were admitted to a HH. No difference in COVID-19 positive patients was described (21.7% in HH vs 15.9% in SH; p=.058). After 30 days from intervention, HH and SH experienced similar mortality and no-intervention-related complication rate (12.1% vs 10.0%; p=.427 and 10.3% vs 8.3%; p=.377, respectively). Conversely, in HH postoperative complications were higher (23.4% vs 16.9%, p=.038) and amputations in patients treated for PAD were lower (10.8% vs 26.8%; p

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Feasibility and results of cardiovascular hub-spoke networks to face COVID19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic in Italy had the primary outbreak in the northern part of the country forcing the regional health care system to expand the availability of beds in the wards and intensive care units and to institute a Hub and Spoke hospital network to ensure assistance continuity for urgencies and emergencies. We report a descriptive analysis of the activity of the first 30 days of the Hub center. METHODS: Role of our Hub center was to guarantee 24/24h 7/7days cardiovascular surgical care for an area of 3.145.312 inhabitants’ area. Hub-spoke reorganization permitted a significant increase of ICU and ward beds availability for COVID patients needing hospitalization in all peripheral centers. Records of all consecutive patients admitted were collected and analyzed. RESULTS: a total of 100 patients were evaluated in the study period . Hub and spoke cooperation have been successful, all patients affected by cardiovascular urgencies or emergencies found a highly specialized hospital and was evaluated and treated. Global reduction of elective and non-deferrable interventions in spoke centers was achieved for both vascular and cardiac surgery while we detected a significant increase of urgent vascular interventions for acute limb ischemia. We did not observe an increase of in-hospital mortality in non-infected patients. CONCLUSION: Hub and spoke network for cardiovascular pathology is an effective way to face healthcare needs during the pandemic.
