[PMID: 38831267 PMCID: PMC11145841 DOI: 10.1186/s12877-024-05101-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) among older patients with hip fractures is common and may result in delayed ambulation, prolonged hospital stays, and urinary tract infections. Although preoperative urinary catheter indwelling and early postoperative removal can prevent perioperative urinary retention, this condition may occur in some patients after catheter removal, which requires urinary catheter re-indwelling or intermittent catheterization. Therefore, this study aims to identify risk factors and develop a screening tool for postoperative urinary retention in patients who have undergone operative treatment for fragility hip fractures subsequent to urinary catheter removal. METHODS A prospective cohort study of 145 fragility hip fracture in older patients who were operatively treated between September 2020 and May 2022 was conducted. All patients were evaluated for urine retention after urinary catheter removal using a bladder scan. In addition, factors related to urinary retention were collected and utilized for screening tool development. RESULTS Of the included patients, 22 (15.2%) were diagnosed with POUR. A multivariable logistic regression model using a stepwise backward elimination algorithm identified the current use of drugs with anticholinergic effect (OR = 11.9, p = 0.012), international prostate symptom score (IPSS) ≥ 8 (OR = 9.3, p < 0.001), and inability to independently get out of bed within 24 h postoperatively (OR = 6.5, p = 0.051) as risk factors of POUR. The screening tool that has been developed revealed an excellent performance (AuROC = 0.85, 95%CI 0.75 to 0.91) with good calibration and minimal optimism. CONCLUSIONS Current use of drugs with anticholinergic effects, IPSS ≥ 8, and inability to independently get out of bed within 24 h postoperatively are significant variables of POUR. For additional external validation, a proposed scoring system for POUR screening was developed. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study protocol was retrospectively registered in The Thai Clinical Trials Registry (TCTR20220502001: 2 May 2022).

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. OBJECTIVES Postoperative ileus (POI) can negatively impact patient recovery and surgical outcomes after spine surgery. Emerging studies have focused on the risk factors for POI after spine surgery. This study aimed to review the available literature on risk factors associated with POI following elective spine surgery. METHODS Electronic databases were searched to identify relevant studies. Meta-analysis was performed using random-effect model. Risk factors for POI were summarized using pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS Twelve studies were included in the present review. Meta-analysis demonstrated males exhibited a higher risk of POI than females odds ratio (OR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.54-2.01). Patients with anemia had a higher risk of POI than those without anemia (OR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.04-2.11). Patients with liver disease (OR, 3.3; 95% CI, 1.2-9.08) had a higher risk of POI. The presence of perioperative fluid and electrolyte imbalances was a predictor of POI (OR, 3.24; 95% CI, 2.62-4.02). Spine surgery involving more than 3 levels had a higher risk of POI compared to that with 1-2 levels (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.03-3.23). CONCLUSIONS Male sex and the presence of anemia and liver disease were significant patient factors associated with POI. Perioperative fluid and electrolyte imbalance and multilevel spine surgery significantly increased the risk of POI. In addition, through this comprehensive review, we identified several perioperative risk factors associated with the development of POI after spine surgery.

Abstract
Introduction Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) has been proposed for postoperative urinary retention (POUR). This meta-analysis evaluated the effect of TEAS in preventing POUR. Methods Databases were searched until February 6, 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about TEAS for preventing POUR were included. The primary concern was the incidence of POUR, with post-void residual urine volume as a secondary outcome. Results Fourteen studies with 2865 participants were identified. TEAS reduced the incidence of POUR (RR = 0.44, 95%CI = 0.33 to 0.58, P < 0.00001) and decreased the post-void residual urine volume (MD = -75.41 mL, 95%CI = -118.76 to -32.06, P = 0.0007). The preventive effect on POUR was found in patients receiving anorectal, gynecologic, orthopedic and biliary surgery, but not urinary surgery. Dilatational- and continuous-wave TEAS had a great outcome in preventing POUR. Intraoperative TEAS, preoperative and intraoperative TEAS, and postoperative TEAS were beneficial, and TEAS was more beneficial when compared with sham TEAS and blank control. It is nevertheless difficult to rule out publication bias. Conclusions TEAS could prevent POUR. Due to insufficient evidence, multicenter, large-sample and high-quality RCTs should be conducted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) after lumbar fusion surgery can lead to longer hospital stays and thus increased risk of developing other postoperative complications. Therefore, we aimed to determine the relationship between POUR and (1) surgical approach and (2) anesthetic agents, including sugammadex and glycopyrrolate. METHODS After institutional review board approval, L4-S1 single-level lumbar fusion surgeries between 2018 and 2021 were identified. A 3:1 propensity match of patients with POUR to those without was conducted, controlling for patient age, sex, diabetes status, body mass index, smoking status, history of benign prostatic hyperplasia, and the number of levels decompressed. POUR was defined as documented straight catheterization yielding >400 mL. We compared patient demographic, surgical, anesthetic, and postoperative characteristics. A bivariant analysis and backward multivariable stepwise logistic regression analysis ( P -value < 0.200) were performed. Significance was set to P < 0.05. RESULTS Of the 899 patients identified, 51 met the criteria for POUR and were matched to 153 patients. No notable differences were observed between groups based on demographic or surgical characteristics. On bivariant analysis, patients who developed POUR were more likely to have been given succinylcholine (13.7% vs. 3.92%, P = 0.020) as an induction agent. The independent predictors of POUR identified by multivariable analysis included the use of succinylcholine {odds ratio (OR), 4.37 (confidence interval [CI], 1.26 to 16.46), P = 0.022} and reduced postoperative activity (OR, 0.99 [CI, 0.993 to 0.999], P = 0.049). Factors protective against POUR included using sugammadex as a reversal agent (OR, 0.38 [CI, 0.17 to 0.82], P = 0.017). The stepwise regression did not identify an anterior surgical approach as a notable predictor of POUR. CONCLUSION We demonstrate that sugammadex for anesthesia reversal was protective against POUR while succinylcholine and reduced postoperative activity were associated with the development of POUR. In addition, we found no difference between the anterior or posterior approach to spinal fusion in the development of POUR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urine retention (POUR) after lumbar interbody fusion surgery may lead to recatheterization and prolonged hospitalization. In this study, a predictive model was constructed and validated. The objective was to provide a nomogram for estimating the risk of POUR and then reducing the incidence. METHODS A total of 423 cases of lumbar fusion surgery were included; 65 of these cases developed POUR, an incidence of 15.4%. The dataset is divided into a training set and a validation set according to time. 18 candidate variables were selected. The candidate variables were screened through LASSO regression. The stepwise regression and random forest analysis were then conducted to construct the predictive model and draw a nomogram. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the calibration curve were used to evaluate the predictive effect of the model. RESULTS The best lambda value in LASSO was 0.025082; according to this, five significant variables were screened, including age, smoking history, surgical method, operative time, and visual analog scale (VAS) score of postoperative low back pain. A predictive model containing four variables was constructed by stepwise regression. The variables included age (β = 0.047, OR = 1.048), smoking history (β = 1.950, OR = 7.031), operative time (β = 0.022, OR = 1.022), and postoperative VAS score of low back pain (β = 2.554, OR = 12.858). A nomogram was drawn based on the results. The AUC of the ROC curve of the training set was 0.891, the validation set was 0.854 in the stepwise regression model. The calibration curves of the training set and validation set are in good agreement with the actual curves, showing that the stepwise regression model has good prediction ability. The AUC of the training set was 0.996, and that of the verification set was 0.856 in the random forest model. CONCLUSION This study developed and internally validated a new nomogram and a random forest model for predicting the risk of POUR after lumbar interbody fusion surgery. Both of the nomogram and the random forest model have high accuracy in this study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is associated with significant morbidity. Our institution's POUR rate was elevated among patients undergoing elective lumbar spinal surgery. We sought to demonstrate that our quality improvement (QI) intervention would significantly lower our POUR rate and length of stay (LOS). METHODS A resident-led QI intervention was implemented from October 2017 to 2018 on 422 patients in an academically affiliated community teaching hospital. This consisted of standardized intraoperative indwelling catheter utilization, postoperative catheterization protocol, prophylactic tamsulosin, and early ambulation after surgery. Baseline data on 277 patients were collected retrospectively from October 2015 to September 2016. Primary outcomes were POUR and LOS. The focus, analyze, develop, execute, and evaluate (FADE) model was used. Multivariable analyses were used. P value <.05 was considered significant. RESULTS We analyzed 699 patients (277 pre-intervention vs 422 post-intervention). The POUR rate (6.9% vs 2.6%, Δ confidence interval [CI] 1.15-8.08, P = .007) and mean LOS (2.94 ± 1.87 days vs 2.56 ± 2.2 days, Δ CI 0.066-0.68, P = .017) were significantly improved following our intervention. Logistic regression demonstrated that the intervention was independently associated with significantly decreased odds for developing POUR (odds ratio [OR] = 0.38, CI 0.17-0.83, P = .015). Diabetes (OR = 2.25, CI 1.03-4.92, P = .04) and longer surgery duration (OR = 1.006, CI 1.002-1.01, P = .002) were independently associated with increased odds of developing POUR. CONCLUSIONS After implementing our POUR QI project for patients undergoing elective lumbar spine surgery, the institutional POUR rate significantly decreased by 4.3% (62% reduction) and LOS, by 0.37 days. We demonstrated that a standardized POUR care bundle was independently associated with a significant decrease in the odds of developing POUR.

Prophylactic alpha blockers fail to prevent postoperative urinary retention following orthopaedic procedures: evidence from a meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of comparative studies. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1214349. [PMID: 37693901 PMCID: PMC10485607 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1214349] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: The present systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to estimate the prophylactic effect of alpha blockers against postoperative urinary retention (POUR) in orthopaedic patients. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library databases were searched between 1 January 1990 and 1 March 2023. The studies reporting the preventive efficacy of alpha blockers on POUR after orthopaedic procedures were identified. The pooled rates of POUR in the Intervention group (patients receiving alpha blockers) and the Control group (patients not receiving alpha blockers) were estimated and compared. The risk ratios (RRs) were calculated using the random-effects model. Subgroup analysis was performed based on surgical type. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted to confirm the robustness of pooled results. Results: Seven studies containing 1,607 patients were identified. The rates of POUR were similar between the two groups (Intervention group: 126/748 [16.8%] VS. Control group: 168/859 [19.6%]; RR = 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.51 to 1.09; p = 0.130; Heterogeneity: I2 = 67.1%; p = 0.006). No significant difference in the incidence of POUR was observed in either the Arthroplasty subgroup or Spine surgery subgroup. The result of TSA suggested that the total sample size of the existing evidence might be insufficient to draw conclusive results. Administrating alpha blockers was associated with a higher risk of complications (88/651 [13.5%] VS. 56/766 [7.3%]; RR = 1.73; 95% CI 1.27 to 2.37; p = 0.0005; Heterogeneity: I2 = 0%; p = 0.69). Conclusion: Prophylactic alpha blockers do not reduce the risk of POUR in orthopaedic procedures, and administrating these drugs was associated with a higher risk of complications.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. OBJECTIVE Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication following lumbar spine surgery (LSS) and timely recognition is imperative to avoid long-term consequences. The aim of the current meta-analysis was to systematically review the literature in order to identify risk factors associated with POUR after LSS. METHODS In accordance with PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review of the literature was performed using Pubmed, EMBASE, and MEDLINE database for articles on POUR following LSS. A meta-analysis was performed comparing patients with and without POUR; and the factors associated with this adverse event were analyzed. The pooled data were reported as mean differences with 95% confidence intervals (CI; P < .05). Heterogeneity among the studies was evaluated using the I2 statistic. RESULTS The meta-analysis included 10 studies compromised of 30,300 patients. Based on our analysis, patients who were male, were older in age, underwent instrumented fusion, had diabetes mellitus, coronary artery disease, or benign prostatic hypertrophy had significantly higher risk of developing POUR. Additionally, patients in who developed POUR had significantly longer surgical times and higher volumes of intra-operative fluid administration, as compared with non-POUR patients. The POUR patients also had a significantly higher association with urinary tract infection. Prior surgery, BMI, length of stay, and smoking status did not reveal any statistical association with POUR. CONCLUSIONS Risk factors associated with POUR following LSS include male gender, older age, longer surgical times, fusion procedures, larger volumes of intraoperative infusions, and associated comorbidities like DM, CAD, and BPH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) and complications when remimazolam (RMMZ) or sevoflurane (SEVO) were used in elderly patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. METHODS Seventy-eight participants aged ≥65 were randomly allocated to either the RMMZ or SEVO group. The primary outcome was the incidence of AKI on postoperative day (POD) 2. The secondary outcomes included intraoperative heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), total drug administered, emergence time, postoperative complications on POD 2, and hospital length of stay (HLOS). RESULTS The incidence of AKI was comparable between the RMMZ and SEVO groups. The doses of intraoperative remifentanil, vasodilators, and additional sedatives were significantly higher in the RMMZ group than in the SEVO group. Overall intraoperative HR and BP tended to remain higher in the RMMZ group. The emergence time in the operating room was significantly faster in the RMMZ group; however, the time required for an Aldrete score ≥ 9 was comparable between the RMMZ and SEVO groups. Postoperative complications and HLOS were comparable between the RMMZ and SEVO groups. CONCLUSION RMMZ may be recommended for patients who are expected to decrease in intraoperative vital signs. However, stable hemodynamics with RMMZ were not sufficient to influence the prevention of AKI.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Systematic review. OBJECTIVES Surgical procedures for lumbar degenerative diseases (LDD), which have emerged in the 21-century, are commonly practiced worldwide. Regarding financial burdens and health costs, readmissions within 30days following surgery are inconvenient. We performed a systematic review to integrate real-world evidence and report the current risk factors associated with 30-day readmission following surgery for LDD. METHODS The Cochrane Library, Embase, and Medline electronic databases were searched from inception to April 2022 to identify relevant studies reporting risk factors for 30-day readmission following surgery for LDD. RESULTS Thirty-six studies were included in the review. Potential risk factors were identified in the included studies that reported multivariate analysis results, including age, race, obesity, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists score, anemia, bleeding disorder, chronic pulmonary disease, heart failure, dependent status, depression, diabetes, frailty, malnutrition, chronic steroid use, surgeries with anterior approach, multilevel spinal surgeries, perioperative transfusion, presence of postoperative complications, prolonged operative time, and prolonged length of stay. CONCLUSIONS There are several potential perioperative risk factors associated with unplanned readmission following surgery for LDD. Preoperatively identifying patients that are at increased risk of readmission is critical for achieving the best possible outcomes.

NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 396:441-451. [PMID: 36445384 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-022-02343-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Tamsulosin is a therapeutic drug of alpha-adrenergic antagonists. Previous randomized controlled trials and retrospective analyses have proved the efficacy of tamsulosin on many urinary system diseases. However, there is still a conflict about whether tamsulosin could prevent postoperative urinary retention (POUR). This meta-analysis aims to probe into the efficacy of tamsulosin for preventing POUR versus placebo. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library from December 31, 1999 to April 30, 2022, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Studies that were not RCTs or without negative controls were excluded. Cochrane Collaboration harmonized criteria were used to assess the risk of bias in included studies. Revman (version 5.3) software was invited to synthesize the results. We performed subgroup analyses to explore the factors that could influence tamsulosin's efficacy in POUR prevention. Our meta-analysis pooled 13 RCTs with 2163 patients. We concluded that tamsulosin brought about a significant reduction in the risk of POUR versus placebo (13.54% vs 20.88% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.63, 95% CI 0.47 to 0.84, P = 0.002). Tamsulosin could significantly reduce the risk of POUR in abdominal (11.52% vs 20.25% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.88, P = 0.02) and female pelvic surgery (15.57% vs 31.50% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.82, P = 0.006) but not in spinal surgery (13.45% vs 12.75% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 1.07, 95% CI 0.72 to 1.60, P = 0.73) and lower limb surgery (21.43% vs 33.33% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.35 to 1.14, P = 0.13). The preventive effect of postoperative (17.70% vs 33.93% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.33 to 0.85, P = 0.008) and postoperative with preoperative tamsulosin (13.96% vs 23.44% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.43 to 0.93, P = 0.02) on POUR were significantly better than preoperative management (11.95% vs 14.63% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.62, 95% CI 0.23 to 1.65, P = 0.34). Postoperative catheter placement appears to have a negative impact on the POUR-preventive effect of tamsulosin. (9.37% vs 16.46% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.83, P = 0.007) Tamsulosin showed significantly effect on POUR prevention in patients during spinal (15.07% vs 26.51% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.90, P = 0.02) and epidural anesthesia (12.50% vs 29.79% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.42, 95% CI 0.18 to 1.00, P = 0.05) but not in general anesthesia (12.40% vs 18.52% for tamsulosin vs placebo, RR = 0.68, 95% CI 0.45 to 1.03, P = 0.07). Tamsulosin shows better outcomes for preventing POUR than placebo. Besides, tamsulosin showed a different effect on POUR prevention in the various surgical sites, anesthesia, medication management, and catheter use. However, our conclusions still have some limitations due to the lack of evidence.

BJS Open 2023; 7:6972435. [PMID: 36611262 PMCID: PMC9825733 DOI: 10.1093/bjsopen/zrac144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 09/01/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication following orthopaedic surgery. Previous studies attempted to establish the preventative role of α1-antagonist in POUR in the general surgical population; however, there is still no consensus regarding its use in orthopaedic surgery due to limited evidence. METHODS Electronic databases of Cochrane Library, Embase, MEDLINE, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched by two independent investigators from inception to 1 March 2022 to identify relevant randomized clinical trials. Two reviewers independently completed a critical appraisal of included trials by using the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool version 2.0 and extracted data from included articles. Risk of POUR was summarized as risk ratio (RR) with 95 per cent confidence intervals (c.i.). Mean difference (MD) was used for meta-analysis of continuous outcomes. RESULTS Five randomized clinical trials involving 878 patients (α1-antagonist, 434; placebo, 444) undergoing hip/knee arthroplasty and spine surgeries were included. One study was assessed as high risk of bias from the randomization process and was excluded from the final meta-analysis. There was no difference in the risk of POUR between patients taking α1-antagonist and the placebo in arthroplasty (RR, 0.64; 95 per cent c.i., 0.36 to 1.14) and in spine surgeries (RR, 1.03; 95 per cent c.i., 0.69 to 1.55). There was no difference in length of stay (MD, -0.14 days; 95 per cent c.i., -0.33 to 0.05). Use of α1-antagonist was associated with a higher risk of adverse events (RR, 1.97; 95 per cent c.i., 1.27 to 3.06), with a composite of dizziness, light-headedness, fatigue, altered mental status, and syncope being the most commonly reported symptoms. CONCLUSION In patients undergoing spinal surgery and joint arthroplasty, routine administration of perioperative α1-antagonist does not decrease risk of POUR but does increase perioperative dizziness, light-headedness, and syncope.

World Neurosurg 2023; 169:e131-e140. [PMID: 36307038 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.10.077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 10/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sarcopenia, characterized by decreased muscle mass and function, is projected to affect more than 200 million people worldwide by 2060. This study aimed to evaluate the rates of short-term complications following lumbar spine arthrodesis in patients with and without a recent diagnosis of sarcopenia. METHODS The PearlDiver database was queried to evaluate all patients who underwent index lumbar spine arthrodesis from 2012 to 2019. Multivariate logistic regression was used to compare rates of 90-day surgical and medical complications. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to compare cumulative rates of reoperation and all-cause hospital readmission. Two sample t testing was used to compare costs of care. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05 a priori. RESULTS Of 239,953 patients undergoing lumbar spine arthrodesis, 1087 had a recent diagnosis of sarcopenia (0.45%) before surgery. Patients with sarcopenia were significantly more likely to experience a urinary tract infection (odds ratio = 1.41, P = 0.035) and undergo incision and drainage (odds ratio = 2.66, P = 0.010) within 90 days after lumbar arthrodesis. Patients with sarcopeniawere at a 24% greater risk of 1-year all-cause hospital readmission. The 90-day cost of care was significantly greater in patients with sarcopenia ($37,689.86 vs. $26,635.72; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing lumbar spine arthrodesis, sarcopenia is associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications, including increased costs of care. Spine surgeons should consider screening patients for sarcopenia preoperatively and counsel them regarding their increased risk of complications. Additionally, surgeons may consider preoperative optimization, like the management of low bone density.

Abstract
PURPOSE Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common complication following colorectal surgery. The incidence of POUR among colorectal surgery patients varies widely, and the risk factors and outcomes of POUR are also debatable. This meta-analysis aims to systematically evaluate the risk factors for POUR in patients after colorectal surgery. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, Embase, Medline, and Chinese databases (CBM, CNKI, and WanFang Databases) were searched to identify relevant cohort studies (from inception to August 2022). Two researchers independently conducted literature quality evaluation and data extraction. All data were analyzed by using the Review Manager 5.4 software. RESULTS Nineteen studies with 101,025 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The risk factors for POUR in colorectal surgery patients were male sex, older age, diabetes mellitus, urological diseases, tumor location in the lower rectum, APR, laparoscopic surgery, operation time ≥ 4 h, postoperative date of urinary catheter removal, excessive intraoperative intravenous fluid volume, and postoperative ileus. The postoperative anastomotic leak, on the other hand, was not a risk factor for POUR. CONCLUSIONS Multiple risk factors influence the incidence of POUR in patients undergoing colorectal surgery. To reduce the incidence of POUR in colorectal surgery patients, medical staff should identify risk factors early and enforce interventions to prevent them.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the utility of intraoperative bulbocavernosus reflex (BCR) monitoring in posterior lumbar fusion surgery. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 153 patients undergoing posterior lumbar fusion with intraoperative BCR monitoring. Voiding function was assessed at discharge and two follow-ups. RESULTS BCR was preserved in 151 patients and completely disappeared in two patients at the end of surgery. For patients in whom BCR was preserved, voiding difficulties at discharge and 1-month and 6-month follow-ups were noted in 16 (10.6%), 9 (6.0%), and 0 (0.0%) patients, respectively. However, patients with BCR loss experienced voiding difficulties at all three time-points. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in voiding between those with preserved and disappeared BCRs at 6 months postoperatively. BCR disappeared during surgery but recovered before the end of surgery in six patients. Among these patients, one experienced transient voiding difficulties postoperatively but with good recovery. However, the other five patients did not experience postoperative voiding difficulties. CONCLUSIONS BCR had low sensitivity for voiding dysfunction at discharge, but had high accuracy at 6-month follow-up examinations. BCR loss was associated with new voiding dysfunction. SIGNIFICANCE Intraoperative BCR monitoring is a potentially useful tool for enhancing safety during posterior lumbar fusion by predicting postoperative voiding dysfunction.

Abstract
ObjectiveThe meta-analysis aimed to estimate the efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin on postoperative urinary retention (POUR) in male patients.MethodsPapers were searched in the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases with predetermined keywords up to March 1, 2022. The studies reporting the preventive efficacy of prophylactic tamsulosin on POUR among men were identified. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) were calculated based on the random-effects model. Meta-regression was performed to explore potential sources of heterogeneity.ResultsThere were 11 studies with 1,046 patients in the tamsulosin group and 1,113 patients in the control group. The risk of POUR was significantly lower in the tamsulosin group (123/1,046 [11.8%] vs. 238/1,119 [19.0%]; RR = 0.61; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.43 to 0.87; P = 0.006; heterogeneity: I2 = 57%; P = 0.009). Administration of tamsulosin was related to higher risk of adverse events (57/688 [8.3%] vs. 33/624 [5.3%]; RR = 1.68; 95% CI: 1.13 to 2.48; P = 0.010; heterogeneity: I2 = 33%; P = 0.20). The level of evidence and mean age of the included patients were identified as the potential sources of heterogeneity.ConclusionThe present meta-analysis indicated that prophylactic tamsulosin helps in preventing POUR and younger patients might benefit more from this preventive regimen. Administrating tamsulosin was also associated with a possibly higher risk of adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common and vexing complication in elective spine surgery. Efficacious prevention strategies are still lacking, and existing studies focus primarily on identifying risk factors. Spinal anesthesia has become an attractive alternative to general anesthesia in elective lumbar surgery, with the potential of having a differential impact on POUR. METHODS 422 spinal anesthesia procedures were prospectively collected between 2017 and 2021 and compared to 416 general anesthesia procedures retrospectively collected between 2014 and 2017, at a single academic center by the same senior neurosurgeon. The main outcome was POUR, defined as the need for straight bladder catheterization or indwelling bladder catheter placement after surgery due to failure to void. A power calculation was performed prior to data collection. RESULTS The general anesthesia group had a higher rate of POUR (9.1 %) compared with the spinal anesthesia group (4.3 %), p = 0.005. At baseline, the spinal anesthesia cohort had an older average age and fewer patients with a history of previous spine surgery. Other comorbid conditions were comparable between the groups. For perioperative characteristics, spinal anesthesia patients had higher ASA scores, shorter operative times, shorter lengths of hospital stay, less operative levels, and zero use of intraoperative bladder catheterization. Acute pain service consult was similar between the groups. A multivariable logistic regression revealed that spinal anesthesia was associated with a significantly lower rate of urinary retention in the spinal anesthesia group (p = 0.0130), after adjusting for potentially confounding factors. Other statistically significant risk factors for POUR included diabetes, (p = 0.003), BPH (p = 0.014), operative time (p = 4.94e-06), and ASA score (p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS We collect and analyze one of the largest available cohorts of patients undergoing simple and complex surgeries under spinal and general anesthesia, finding that spinal anesthesia is independently associated with a lower incidence of POUR compared to general anesthesia, even when adjusted for potentially confounding risk factors. Further prospective trials are needed to explore this finding.
