[PMID: 38737733 PMCID: PMC11081787 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2024.04.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 04/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Nutritional assessment is important for optimization of patients undergoing elective total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Preoperative nutritional intervention is a potentially modifiable optimization target, but the outcomes of such intervention are not well-studied. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of nutritional interventions on elective TJA outcomes. Methods Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were utilized to perform a systematic review of the Ovid Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library systems. Included studies were comprised of patients greater than 18 years of age undergoing a primary unilateral TJA who received a perioperative dietitian-led intervention. Data analyzed included nutritional intervention protocol, patient demographics, length of stay (LOS), postoperative labs and complications, among others. Results Our initial search identified a total of 1766 articles. Four studies representing 5006 patients met inclusion criteria. The studies utilized a protein-dominant diet, with or without a carbohydrate solution accompanied by dietitian assessment or education. The 4 studies found that the intervention group had significantly decreased LOS, fewer albumin infusions, less wound drainage, lower rates of hypocalcemia and hypokalemia, reduced C-reactive protein (CRP) values, improved time out of bed, and decreased overall costs. Conclusion The findings support the potential benefits of perioperative dietitian-led intervention on key outcomes for patients undergoing primary TJA. Surgeons should consider nutritional intervention in their preoperative optimization protocols. Future studies could help elucidate the optimum nutritional regimens and monitoring for idealized intervention and surgical timing. Prospero registration number CRD4202338494.

Abstract
» Identification of malnourished and at-risk patients should be a standardized part of the preoperative evaluation process for every patient.» Malnourishment is defined as a disorder of energy, protein, and nutrients based on the presence of insufficient energy intake, weight loss, muscle atrophy, loss of subcutaneous fat, localized or generalized fluid accumulation, or diminished functional status.» Malnutrition has been associated with worse outcomes postoperatively across a variety of orthopaedic procedures because malnourished patients do not have a robust metabolic reserve available for recovery after surgery.» Screening assessment and basic laboratory studies may indicate patients' nutritional risk; however, laboratory values are often not specific for malnutrition, necessitating the use of prognostic screening tools.» Nutrition consultation and perioperative supplementation with amino acids and micronutrients are 2 readily available interventions that orthopaedic surgeons can select for malnourished patients.

BMC Anesthesiol 2024; 24:78.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Modern perioperative guidelines encourage drinking oral carbohydrates 2 h before management. Nevertheless, research on the safety of preoperative carbohydrate drinks, particularly in extremely elderly patients is lacking. We aimed to evaluate the safety of carbohydrate drinks 2 h before surgery in extremely elderly patients (≥ 80 years) using gastric ultrasonography. METHODS We conducted a randomized prospective comparative study of 70 patients aged over 80 years who were scheduled for total knee arthroplasty, hip fracture or humerus fracture surgery. These patients were randomly assigned to the carbohydrate group (n = 35), which fasted from midnight, except for drinking 355 mL of a carbohydrate-containing fluid 2 h before surgery, or the fasting group (n = 35), which fasted from midnight and drank no fluid before surgery. The primary outcome of the study was the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the gastric antrum in the right lateral decubitus position (RLDP) before surgery. The secondary outcomes included CSA in the supine position, intraoperative blood glucose levels and their variability coefficients, Perlas grade, and the visual analog scale of subjective feelings. RESULTS The CSA in the RLDP and supine positions revealed no differences between the carbohydrate and fasting groups at 0 h preoperatively (P > 0.05). In the qualitative assessment, preoperative 0-h Perlas grading did not differ significantly between the groups (P > 0.05). From 2 h before surgery to transfer out of the post-anesthesia care unit, the average blood glucose level of patients in the carbohydrate group was significantly higher than that in the fasting group (P < 0.001) but remained within the normal range. Moreover, the blood glucose variability coefficient was significantly lower in the carbohydrate group than in the fasting group (P = 0.009). Oral intake of 355 mL carbohydrates before surgery significantly relieved patients' feelings (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Preoperative consumption of carbohydrate drinks 2 h before surgery is safe in "healthy" extremely elderly patients. In addition, preoperative drinking has potential value in maintaining ideal blood glucose levels and stable blood glucose fluctuations perioperatively and improving subjective perceptions of preoperative preparation. This finding warrants further investigation in clinical practice. TRIAL REGISTRATION Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (Registration Number ChiCTR1900024812), first registered on 29/07/2019.

Does Spinal Surgery in Elderly Patients (Over 80 Years-Old) Lead to More Early Post-Operative Complications Than Lower Limb Prosthetic Surgery? Gerontol Geriatr Med 2024; 10:23337214231225841. [PMID: 38250569 PMCID: PMC10798125 DOI: 10.1177/23337214231225841] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose: Patients and surgeons may be reluctant on spinal surgery over 80 years old, fearing medical complications despite the possible improvement on quality of life. However, fewer reservations for lower limb prosthetic surgery (LLPS) seem to be arisen in this population. Is spinal surgery after 80 years-old responsible of more complications than lower limb surgery? Methods: The consecutive files of 164 patients over 80 years that had spinal surgery or LLPS were analyzed. The data collected pre-operatively were demographic, clinical and post-operatively the number and types of medical complications and length of stay. Results: The mean number of medical complications was 1.11 ± 0.6 [0-6] for spinal surgery and 1.09 ± 1.0 [0-3] for LLPS, (p = 0,87). The length of stay in orthopedic unit was comparable between the two groups: 10.7 ± 4.9 days [2-36] for SS and 10.7 ± 3.0 days [5-11] for LLPS (p = 0,96). Conclusion: The global rate of peri-operative complications and the length of hospital stay were similar between spinal surgery and lower limb prosthetic surgery. These results may be explained by the rising cooperation between geriatric specialist and surgeons and the development of mini-invasive surgical technics, diminishing the early post-operative complication rates.

Abstract
➤ Malnutrition is common among subsets of patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery and is associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications.➤ Serum proteins, in particular, albumin, may be used in the evaluation of nutritional status.➤ Anthropometric measurements and surveys also play a role in the evaluation of nutritional status.➤ Increased energy and nutrient requirements due to surgical procedures necessitate increased caloric and protein intake in the perioperative period, which may be achieved through diet or supplementation.➤ Evidence supports the use of protein-calorie, amino acid, and immunonutrition supplements. Vitamin D supplementation is an area of further consideration.➤ Diet restriction, activity alterations, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery are all safe, effective approaches to weight loss, although the optimal timing and magnitude of preoperative weight loss require further investigation.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the clinical effects of white noise intervention combined with multi-dimensional nursing mode in patients receiving hip replacement (HR). Methods The study selected the clinical data of 161 patients who underwent HR in our hospital from February 2020 to February 2022 for retrospective analysis. According to patients' willingness, they were divided into the study group (n = 77, receiving white noise intervention combined with multi-dimensional nursing mode) and the control group (n = 84, receiving routine nursing). Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scale was used to evaluate patients' sleep quality in the two groups, and the incidence of nosocomial infection in the both groups was counted. Results Before nursing and white noise intervention, the PSQI scores of patients' sleep quality in the two groups were all lower, with no obvious difference (P > 0.05). After nursing and white noise intervention, the sleep quality of the two groups was all improved, and the study group had overtly lower PSQI score and score of psychological status than the control group (P < 0.05). After nursing and white noise intervention, the study group had remarkably lower incidence of nosocomial infection than the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion White noise intervention combined with multi-dimensional nursing mode can effectively improve the sleep quality of patients undergoing HR and reduce the incidence of nosocomial infection, which is of positive significance for promoting the recovery of postoperative limb function.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Malnutrition in elderly patients with hip fracture has been described as a factor associated with poor outcomes. This evidence for elderly patients undergoing elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) for osteoarthritis is not well-established. METHODS We retrospectively studied a cohort of patients with an age ≥65 years admitted to the hospital for THA between January 2018 and December 2020. Demographic characteristics were collected. Albumin and total lymphocyte count were included in the pre-operative analysis and 24h postoperatively. Nutritional screening was carried out 24h postoperatively. GLIM criteria were applied for the diagnosis of malnutrition. RESULTS 25 patients out of the total cohort of 65 (38.4%) were malnourished. Five out of six patients (83.3%) with postoperative complications presented malnutrition compared with 20 of 59 patients (33.8%) without postoperative complications (P=0.028). Mean length of stay (LOS) was 3.49±0.88 days. Five out of six (83.3%) patients with postoperative complications presented LOS >3 days compared with one out of six patients (16.6%) with LOS ≤3 days (P=0.009). 26 patients (40%) were referred to a community health centre, no differences in diagnosis of malnutrition were detected compared with patients who were discharged home. Patients with a diagnosis of malnutrition were significantly older, had a lower body mass index (BMI), a lower preoperative and postoperative albumin and worse anthropometric parameters. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications and longer LOS in elderly patients with elective THA. Risk factors for malnutrition are older age and low BMI.

Abstract
Malnutrition is an increasingly prevalent problem in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Increased risks associated with TJA in the setting of malnourishment have been well documented. Standardized scoring systems in addition to laboratory parameters such as albumin, prealbumin, transferrin, and total lymphocyte count have been developed to identify and evaluate malnourished patients. Despite an abundance of recent literature, there is no consensus on the best approach for screening TJA patients from a nutritional standpoint. Although there are a variety of treatment options, including nutritional supplements, nonsurgical weight loss therapies, bariatric surgery, and the involvement of dieticians and nutritionists, the effect of these interventions on TJA outcomes has not been well characterized. This overview of the most current literature aims to provide a clinical framework for approaching nutrition status in arthroplasty patients. A comprehensive understanding of the tools available for managing malnourishment will facilitate improved arthroplasty care.

Abstract
The role of nutrition intervention in surgical settings is constantly developing and evolving. Immunonutrition represents a viable option to reduce perioperative and postoperative complications in surgical oncology. However, as far as we know, little research has been conducted in the orthopedic field. With this review, we aim to summarize the state of the art in the application of immune-enhanced compounds to surgical, orthopedic, and traumatic patients. The PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines were adopted. A comprehensive search was carried out using the PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases. All the studies dealing with immunonutrition fed to traumatic and orthopedic patients were pooled, the data were extracted, and the studies were discussed. A total of eight studies were included: six focused on trauma surgery and two on elective orthopedic surgery. The epidemiological characteristics of participants and the assessment of results were reported. Data were analyzed using R software (2020; R Core Team). Based on the current available literature, a positive impact of immunonutrition in orthopedic and trauma surgical settings was registered. All studies analyzed showed the favorable impact of the immunonutrition diet on clinical outcomes. The full effect of this type of nutrition and its different applications in the orthopedic and traumatic fields should be critically investigated through more extensive randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
Objective Patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) were primarily geriatric, with high risk of postoperative electrolyte disorders and malnutrition. Randomized controlled trials regarding oral nutrition supplement (ONS) strategies in TKA was sparse. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative oral electrolyte‐carbohydrate nutrition supplement (OECNS) on patients (aged >65 years) undergoing TKA. Methods From April 2019 to January 2020, 94 patients undergoing primary elective unilateral TKA in our hospital were considered in this prospective randomized controlled study. This study included patients aged over 65 years with ASA I‐III, and excluded patients with electrolyte disorders, malnutrition, and comorbidities. The control group (control group) received meal nutrition supplements (preoperative 6 h [Pre 6h]) and water (Pre 2h), while OECNS group (intervention group) received meal nutrition supplements (Pre 6h) and OECNS (Pre 2). The Student's t test and χ2 test was used. The primary outcomes were the patient‐reported comfort indicators (PRCIs) including hunger, thirst, nausea, vomiting, weakness, pain, anxiety, and general comfort. The secondary outcomes included indicators of electrolyte, nutrition, functional scores, clinical results, and complications. Results The scores of preoperative hunger (0.43 ± 0.10), pain (2.30 ± 0.34), and anxiety (9.04 ± 2.71) were significantly lower in OECNS group compared with control group (hunger, 1.19 ± 0.21; pain, 3.79 ± 0.26; anxiety, 11.21 ± 3.02) (Pre 1h) (all p < 0.05) as well as the weakness score on the first postoperative day (POD1) (OECNS group 3.57 ± 0.24; control group 5.15 ± 0.29; p < 0.001). A higher level of Na + (OECNS group 140.54 ± 3.39; control group 138.07 ± 5.21; p = 0.008) and a reduced rate of hyponatremia (OECNS group 6.4%; control group 21.3%; p = 0.036) on POD1 were found. Moreover, the higher level of blood glucose (Post 2h) and reduced rates of abnormal blood glucose (Pre 2h, Post 6h) were verified in control group (all p < 0.05). There was no significant difference regarding the other outcomes. Conclusion The administration of OECNS significantly improved subjective comfort, electrolytes, and blood glucose without increasing the rates of complications in patients (aged over 65 years) undergoing TKA.

Abstract
Objective The dose selection of ropivacaine for spinal anesthesia in clinical work mainly depends on the experience of the anesthesiologist. In this study, a prospective and modified up-down sequential allocation design was used to provide the optimal dose selection of ropivacaine for spinal anesthesia. Patients and methods This study was divided into two stages, and a total of 164 elderly patients with elective hip fractures were included. In stage I, the dose of ropivacaine was selected using the up-down sequential method of height correction, and the 50% effective dose (ED50) and 95% effective dose (ED95) were obtained. A nomogram for predicting satisfactory anesthesia and a formula for predicting the optimal dose was also given in this stage. In stage II, the dose of ropivacaine was calculated by using the optimal dose prediction formula, so as to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the model. Results The ED50 and ED95 of the stage I were 7.036 mg (95%CI 6.549–7.585 mg) and 8.709 mg (95%CI 7.902–14.275 mg), respectively. And provided a nomogram predicting satisfactory anesthesia with a C-index of 0.847 (95%CI 0.774–0.92). The optimal dose prediction formula of ropivacaine was calculated, including variables for age, gender, height, and weight. This formula was found to be 90% efficient. It is worth mentioning that the incidence of direct transfer to the ward in the two stages was as high as 86.84% and 93.33%, respectively, and no patients were transferred to the ICU in stage II. Conclusion The ED50 and ED95 of ropivacaine were 7.036 mg and 8.709 mg, respectively, and the nomograms are sufficiently accurate to predict satisfactory anesthesia. Beyond that, the dose prediction equation provided in this study has high efficacy and safety, and can guide the dose selection of spinal anesthesia in elderly patients with hip fracture in clinical practice.

Abstract
Aim: There is currently no consensus on the best risk assessment technique for predicting complications after hip surgery in the elderly, which is hindering the accuracy of surgical risk assessment. The goal of this study was to build a risk assessment model and evaluate its predictive value using the modified frailty index (5-mFI) and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI).Methods: A retrospective investigation was undertaken on 150 patients (aged ≥60 years) who had hip fracture surgery. Using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models, the relationship between combined 5-mFI and PNI and the evaluation of postoperative unfavorable outcomes such as infection and unscheduled intensive care unit (ICU) admission was investigated. Finally, utilizing receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, the model's predictive value for adverse outcomes following hip fracture surgery in elderly patients was assessed.Results: Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses revealed that preoperative PNI, 5-mFI, ASA, and gender acted as independent predictors of adverse outcomes after hip fracture surgery in the elderly. According to the ROC curve analysis, the predictive model demonstrated a high predictive value for total postoperative complications (AUC: 0.788; 95%CI: 0.715-0.860; p<0.01), infectious complications (AUC: 0.798; 95% CI: 0.727-0.868; P<0.001), and unplanned ICU admission (AUC: 0.783; 95% CI: 0.705-0.861; P<0.001).Conclusions: The multivariable evaluation model, which included 5-mFI and PNI, showed a high predictive value and can hence be applied to predict the adverse outcomes in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.

Abstract
» Nutritional assessment is a critical element of routine preoperative assessment and should be approached by an interdisciplinary team that involves the primary care physician, dietitian, and orthopaedist. » Patients should be stratified on the basis of their nutritional risk, which influences downstream optimization and deficiency reversal. » The scientific literature indicates that nutritional supplementation affords protection against adverse outcomes and helps functional recovery, even among patients who are not at nutritional risk. » Published investigations recommend a sufficient preoperative interval (at least 4 weeks) to ensure an adequate nutritional intervention in malnourished patients as opposed to regarding them as nonsurgical candidates.
