Intersurgeon variations in postoperative length of stay after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy. JTCVS OPEN 2024; 18:253-260. [PMID: 38690406 PMCID: PMC11056473 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjon.2024.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Objectives To identify factors associated with prolonged postoperative length of stay (LOS) after VATS lobectomy (VATS-L), explore potential intersurgeon variation in LOS and ascertain whether or not early discharge influences hospital readmission rates. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent VATS-L at a single academic center between 2018 and 2021. Each VATS lobectomy procedure was performed by 1 of 7 experienced thoracic surgeons. The primary end point of interest was prolonged LOS, defined as an index LOS >3 days. Results Among 1006 patients who underwent VATS lobectomy, 632 (63%) had a prolonged LOS. On multivariate analysis, the factors independently associated with prolonged LOS were: surgeon (P < .001), patient age (odds ratio [OR], 1.03; 95% CI, 1.02-1.06), operation time (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.01-1.01), postoperative complication (OR, 3.60; 95% CI, 2.45-5.29), and prolonged air leak (OR, 8.95; 95% CI, 4.17-19.23). There was no significant association between LOS and gender, body mass index, coronary artery disease, prior atrial fibrillation, American Society of Anesthesiologists score >3, and prior ipsilateral thoracic surgery or sternotomy. There was no association between LOS ≤3 days and hospital readmission (20 [5.3%] vs 39 [5.9%]; OR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.50-1.53). Conclusions An intersurgeon variation in postoperative LOS after VATS-L exists and is independent of patient baseline characteristics or perioperative complications. This variation seems to be more closely related to differences in postoperative management and discharge practices rather than to surgical quality. Postoperative discharge within 3 days is safe and does not increase hospital readmissions.

Enhanced recovery after surgery pathway leads to decreased length of stay for patients undergoing minimally invasive lung resection. J Thorac Dis 2024; 16:1324-1337. [PMID: 38505051 PMCID: PMC10944727 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-23-1500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Background Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols in thoracic surgery have been demonstrated to impact length of stay (LOS), complication rates, and postoperative opioid use. However, ERAS protocols for minimally invasive lung resections have not been well described. Given most lung resections are now performed minimally invasively, there is a gap in the literature regarding the efficacy of ERAS protocols in this setting. In this study, we analyzed patient outcomes following implementation of an ERAS protocol for minimally invasive lung resections. Methods Outcome data was retrospectively collected for 442 patients undergoing minimally invasive lung resections between January 1st, 2015 and October 26th, 2021. Patients were divided into either a pre-ERAS (n=193) or ERAS (n=249) group. Primary outcomes included LOS, postoperative complications, intensive care unit (ICU) admission status, 30-day hospital readmissions, and 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes included common postoperative complications required for the Society for Thoracic Surgeons (STS) database. Results We observed an overall decrease in median LOS (4.0 vs. 3.0 days, P=0.030) and ICU admission status (15% vs. 7.6%, P=0.020) after implementation of our ERAS protocol. The difference in LOS was significantly lower for anatomic lung resections, but not non-anatomic resections. There was no difference in 30-day readmissions and a 0% mortality rate in both groups. Overall, there was a low complication rate that was similar between groups. Conclusions The implementation of an ERAS protocol led to decreased LOS and decreased ICU admission in patients undergoing minimally invasive lung resection. Process standardization optimizes performance by providers by decreasing decision fatigue and improving decision making, which may contribute to the improved outcomes observed in this study.

Diagnostic value of systematic bronchial aspirate on postoperative pneumonia after pulmonary resection surgery for lung cancer: a monocentre retrospective study. INTERDISCIPLINARY CARDIOVASCULAR AND THORACIC SURGERY 2024; 38:ivad212. [PMID: 38305501 PMCID: PMC10850844 DOI: 10.1093/icvts/ivad212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 12/01/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Intraoperative bacterial airway colonization seems to be associated with an increased risk of postoperative pneumonia (POP). It can be easily assessed by performing a bronchial aspirate (BA). The objective of this study is to assess the diagnostic performance of the BA to predict POP. METHODS We conducted a single-centre retrospective observational study over a period of 10 years, from 1 January 2011 to 30 December 2020. The population study included patients admitted for a scheduled pulmonary resection surgery for lung cancer. Patients were classified into 2 populations depending on whether or not they developed a POP. Uni- and multivariable analyses were performed to identify risk factors for developing POP. The diagnostic performance of BA was represented by its sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive values. RESULTS A total of 1006 patients were included in the study. Uni- and multivariable analyses found that a positive BA was independently associated with a greater risk of developing POP with an odds ratio of 6.57 [4.165-10.865]; P < 0.001. Its specificity was 95%, sensitivity was 31%, positive predictive value was 66% and negative predictive value was 81%. CONCLUSIONS A positive intraoperative BA is an independent risk factor for POP after lung cancer surgery. Further trials are required to validate the systematic implementation of BA as an early diagnostic tool for POP.

[PMID: 38175778 DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezad434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative neurocognitive disorder following thoracoscopic surgery with general anaesthesia may be linked to reduced intraoperative cerebral oxygenation and perioperative inflammation, which can potentially be exacerbated by mechanical ventilation. However, nonintubated thoracoscopic surgery, which utilizes regional anaesthesia and maintains spontaneous breathing, provides a unique model for studying the potential benefits of avoiding mechanical ventilation. This approach allows investigation into the impact on perioperative neurocognitive profiles, inflammatory responses and intraoperative cerebral oxygen levels. METHODS In total, 110 patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery were randomly equally assigned to the intubated group and the nonintubated group. Regional cerebral oxygenation was monitored during surgery. Serum neuroinflammatory biomarkers, including interleukin-6 and glial fibrillary acidic protein, were measured at baseline (before surgery) and 24 h after surgery. Postoperative complication severity was compared using the Comprehensive Complication Index. The primary outcome was perioperative changes in neurocognitive test score, which was assessed at baseline, 24 h and 6 months after surgery. RESULTS Patients in the nonintubated group had higher neurocognitive test scores at 24 h (69.9 ± 10.5 vs 65.3 ± 11.8; P = 0.03) and 6 months (70.6 ± 6.7 vs 65.4 ± 8.1; P < 0.01) after surgery and significantly higher regional cerebral oxygenation over time during one-lung ventilation (P = 0.03). Patients in the intubated group revealed a significantly higher postoperative serum interleukin-6 level (group by time interaction, P = 0.04) and a trend towards a significantly higher serum glial fibrillary acidic protein level (group by time interaction, P = 0.11). Furthermore, patients in the nonintubated group had a significantly lower Comprehensive Complication Index (9.0 ± 8.2 vs 6.1 ± 7.1; P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Nonintubated thoracoscopic surgery was associated with improved postoperative neurocognitive recovery, more stable intraoperative cerebral oxygenation, ameliorated perioperative inflammation and attenuated postoperative complication severity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine if robotic-assisted lobectomy (RPL-4) is cost-effective and offers improved patient-reported health utility for patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer when compared with video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy (VATS-lobectomy). BACKGROUND Barriers against the adoption of RPL-4 in publicly funded health care include the paucity of high-quality prospective trials and the perceived high cost of robotic surgery. METHODS Patients were enrolled in a blinded, multicentered, randomized controlled trial in Canada, the United States, and France, and were randomized 1:1 to either RPL-4 or VATS-lobectomy. EuroQol 5 Dimension 5 Level (EQ-5D-5L) was administered at baseline and postoperative day 1; weeks 3, 7, 12; and months 6 and 12. Direct and indirect costs were tracked using standard methods. Seemingly Unrelated Regression was applied to estimate the cost effect, adjusting for baseline health utility. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was generated by 10,000 bootstrap samples with multivariate imputation by chained equations. RESULTS Of 406 patients screened, 186 were randomized, and 164 analyzed after the final eligibility review (RPL-4: n=81; VATS-lobectomy: n=83). Twelve-month follow-up was completed by 94.51% (155/164) of participants. The median age was 68 (60-74). There were no significant differences in body mass index, comorbidity, pulmonary function, smoking status, baseline health utility, or tumor characteristics between arms. The mean 12-week health utility score was 0.85 (0.10) for RPL-4 and 0.80 (0.19) for VATS-lobectomy ( P =0.02). Significantly more lymph nodes were sampled [10 (8-13) vs 8 (5-10); P =0.003] in the RPL-4 arm. The incremental cost/quality-adjusted life year of RPL-4 was $14,925.62 (95% CI: $6843.69, $23,007.56) at 12 months. CONCLUSION Early results of the RAVAL trial suggest that RPL-4 is cost-effective and associated with comparable short-term patient-reported health utility scores when compared with VATS-lobectomy.

Abstract
Chest tube management represents a major issue after lung surgery as no protocol is widely accepted and tube management is generally based on local or personal habits. Aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a standardized protocol for chest tube management after pulmonary resections on the post-operative outcomes. We performed a single center retrospective analysis of all adult patients undergoing thoracoscopic pulmonary resection from January 2020 to December 2021. Starting from January 2021 a standardized protocol of chest tube management was applied after all procedures. Patients were divided into two groups according to the chest tube management strategy. he two groups had similar pre-operative characteristics and the extent of lung resection was comparable. Intervention group had significantly shorter time to chest tube removal (median 1 vs 3 days, p < 0.001) and post-operative length of stay (median 3 vs 4 days, p < 0.001). Despite earlier chest tube removal, there was not an increased incidence of post-removal complications. On multivariable analysis, the new chest drain management strategy was an independent predictor of earlier chest tube removal. A standardized protocol of chest tube management allows for an earlier chest tube removal and a shorter hospital stay, without an increase in post-operative complications.

Abstract
Background: The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol has been widely adopted across various surgical subspecialties. Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) has grown in popularity in the past decade. Therefore, this study aimed to discuss the initial application of ERAS in TORT. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 95 patients who had undergone TORT in our department from April 2020 to March 2022. All patients were treated using the ERAS protocol. Results: TORT was successfully performed in all 95 patients. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed papillary carcinoma. The average operative time, hemorrhage volume, length of postoperative stay, and pain score (24 hours after surgery) were 227.32 ± 44.37 minutes, 35.81 ± 23.45 mL, 1.37 ± 0.62 days, and 2.11 ± 0.54, respectively. Sixty patients received an analgesia pump, with no significant difference in pain scores between the patients with and without the pump (P > .05). Eight patients experienced transient mandibular numbness, and two experienced transient hoarseness postoperatively. Of the 24 cases of total thyroidectomy/bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy (ST) or lobectomy with isthmusectomy plus contralateral ST patients, 8 developed transient hypoparathyroidism. No common complications, such as incision infection, hematoma/effusion formation, coughing while drinking, or permanent hoarseness/hypocalcemia, were reported. Conclusion: Our initial outcomes demonstrate that implementing an ERAS protocol in TORT is safe and feasible.

Abstract
The rapid development and promotion of minimally invasive thoracic surgery represented by video-assisted thoracoscopy surgery has gradually replaced traditional thoracic surgery technique as the primary choice for the treatment of pulmonary nodules, including early lung cancer. With the clinical application of double-lumen bronchial catheters, the realization of one-lung ventilation technology not only provides a solid anesthesia foundation for the popularization of minimally invasive thoracic surgery, but also provides a guarantee for the rapid and smooth implementation of the operation. However, compared with single-lumen bronchial catheters, the diameter of the double-lumen bronchial catheter is thicker, and the tube body is hard and difficult to shape, which brings inconvenience to anesthesia intubation. The bronchial structure is different, and the incidence of dislocation during anesthesia intubation is also high. With the gradual clinical use of video double-lumen tube (VDLT), it has become a hot spot in thoracic surgery in recent years. This article reviews the application and research progress of VDLT in thoracic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enhanced Recovery After Surgery [ERAS] is widely adopted in patients undergoing colorectal surgery, with demonstrated benefits. Few studies have assessed the feasibility, safety, and effectiveness of ERAS in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD]. The aim of this study was to investigate the current adoption and outcomes of ERAS in IBD. METHODS This PRISMA-compliant systematic review of the literature included all articles reporting on adult patients with IBD who underwent colorectal surgery within an ERAS pathway. PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched. Endpoints included ERAS adoption, perioperative outcomes, and ERAS items more consistently reported, with associated evidence levels [EL] [PROSPERO CRD42021238653]. RESULTS Out of 217 studies, 16 totalling 2347 patients were included. The median number of patients treated was 50.5. Malnutrition and anaemia optimisation were only included as ERAS items in six and four articles, respectively. Most of the studies included the following items: drinking clear fluids until 2 h before the surgery, fluid restriction, nausea prophylaxis, early feeding, and early mobilisation. Only two studies included postoperative stoma-team and IBD-team evaluation before discharge. Highest EL were observed for ileocaecal Crohn's disease resection [EL2]. Median in-hospital stay was 5.2 [2.9-10.7] days. Surgical site infections and anastomotic leaks ranged between 3.1-23.5% and 0-3.4%, respectively. Complications occurred in 5.7-48%, and mortality did not exceed 1%. CONCLUSIONS Evidence on ERAS in IBD is lacking, but this group of patients might benefit from consistent adoption of the pathway. Future studies should define if IBD-specific ERAS pathways and selection criteria are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no consensus about the type of instrument with which to assess postoperative recovery or the time points when assessments are most appropriate. It is also unclear whether instruments measure the four dimensions of postoperative recovery, that is physical, psychological, social, and habitual recovery. This scoping review had three objectives: (1) to identify and describe instruments used in clinical trials to assess postoperative recovery; (2) to determine how, when, and the number of times postoperative recovery was measured; and (3) to explore whether the four dimensions of postoperative recovery are represented in the identified instruments. METHODS A literature search was conducted in CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Web of Science. The search terms were related to three search strands: postoperative recovery, instrument, and clinical trials. The limits were English language and publication January 2010 to November 2021. In total, 5015 studies were identified. RESULTS A total of 198 studies were included in the results. We identified 20 instruments measuring postoperative recovery. Different versions of Quality of Recovery represented 81.8% of the included instruments. Postoperative recovery was often assessed at one time point (47.2%) and most often on postoperative day 1 (81.5%). Thirteen instruments had items covering all four dimensions of postoperative recovery. CONCLUSIONS Assessing recovery is important to evaluate and improve perioperative care. We emphasise the importance of choosing the right instrument for the concept studied and, if postoperative recovery is of interest, of assessing more than once. Ideally, instruments should include all four dimensions to cover the whole recovery process.

Abstract
In recent years, multidisciplinary programs have been implemented that include different actions during the pre, intra and postoperative period, aimed at reducing perioperative stress and therefore improving the results of patients undergoing surgical interventions. Initially, these programs were developed for colorectal surgery and from there they have been extended to other surgeries. Thoracic surgery, considered highly complex, like other surgeries with a high postoperative morbidity and mortality rate, may be one of the specialties that most benefit from the implementation of these programs. This review presents the recommendations made by different specialties involved in the perioperative care of patients who require resection of a lung tumor. Meta-analyzes, systematic reviews, randomized and non-randomized controlled studies, and retrospective studies conducted in patients undergoing this type of intervention have been taken into account in preparing the recommendations presented in this guide. The GRADE scale has been used to classify the recommendations, assessing on the one hand the level of evidence published on each specific aspect and, on the other hand, the strength of the recommendation with which the authors propose its application. The recommendations considered most important for this type of surgery are those that refer to pre-habilitation, minimization of surgical aggression, excellence in the management of perioperative pain and postoperative care aimed at providing rapid postoperative rehabilitation.

Impact of enhanced pathway of care in uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Updates Surg 2022; 74:1097-1103. [PMID: 35013903 DOI: 10.1007/s13304-021-01217-x] [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: 09/03/2021] [Accepted: 12/05/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (E.R.A.S.) is a multimodal, evidence-based and patient-centered pathway designed to minimize surgical stress, enhancing recovery and improving perioperative outcomes. However, considering that the potential clinical implication of E.R.A.S. on patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (V.A.T.S.) has not properly defined, we proposed to implement our minimally invasive program with a specific clinical pathway able to enhance recovery after lung resection. Aim of this study was to assess the impact of this integrated program of Enhanced Pathway of Care (E.P.C.) in Uniportal V.A.T.S. patients undergoing lung resection, in terms of efficiency and safety. We conducted a retrospective, observational study enrolling patients undergoing uniportal V.A.T.S. resections from January 2015 to May 2020. Two groups were created: pre-E.P.C. and E.P.C. Propensity score matching analysis was performed to evaluate length of stay (LOS), postoperative cardiopulmonary complications (CPC) and readmission rate (READM). We analyzed 1167 patients (E.P.C. group: 182; pre-E.P.C. group: 985). E.P.C. group has a mean LOS shorter compared to pre-E.P.C. group (3.13 vs 4.19 days, p < 0.0001) without increasing on CPC (E.P.C. 12% vs pre-E.P.C. 11%, p = 0.74) and READM rate (E.P.C. 1.6% vs pre-E.P.C. 4.9%, p = 0.07). In particular, the LOS was shortened in the E.P.C. patients submitted to lobectomy, segmentectomy and wedge resection. Moreover, the three subgroups had similar CPC and READM rates for E.P.C. and control patients. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the benefits and safety of E.P.C. program showing a reduction of LOS for patients undergoing uniportal V.A.T.S. resection.

An External-Validated Algorithm to Predict Postoperative Pneumonia Among Elderly Patients With Lung Cancer After Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery. Front Oncol 2022; 11:777564. [PMID: 34970491 PMCID: PMC8712479 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.777564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 11/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to develop an algorithm to predict postoperative pneumonia among elderly patients with lung cancer after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. We analyzed 3,009 patients from the Thoracic Perioperative Database for Geriatrics in our hospital and finally enrolled 1,585 elderly patients (age≧65 years) with lung cancer treated with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The included patients were randomly divided into a training group (n = 793) and a validation group (n = 792). Patients in the training group were used to develop the algorithm after screening up to 30 potential risk factors, and patients in the validation group were used to internally validate the algorithm. External validation of the algorithm was achieved in the external validation dataset after enrolling 165 elderly patients with lung cancer treated with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery from two hospitals in China. Of all included patients, 9.15% (145/1,585) of patients suffered from postoperative pneumonia in the Thoracic Perioperative Database for Geriatrics, and 10.30% (17/165) of patients had postoperative pneumonia in the external validation dataset. The algorithm consisted of seven variables, including sex, smoking, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), surgery duration, leukocyte count, intraoperative injection of colloid, and intraoperative injection of hormone. The C-index from the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was 0.70 in the training group, 0.67 in the internal validation group, and 0.71 in the external validation dataset, and the corresponding calibration slopes were 0.88 (95% confident interval [CI]: 0.37–1.39), 0.90 (95% CI: 0.46–1.34), and 1.03 (95% CI: 0.24–1.83), respectively. The actual probabilities of postoperative pneumonia were 5.14% (53/1031) in the low-risk group, 15.07% (71/471) in the medium-risk group, and 25.30% (21/83) in the high-risk group (p < 0.001). The algorithm can be a useful prognostic tool to predict the risk of developing postoperative pneumonia among elderly patients with lung cancer after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for surgical complications after anatomic lung resections in the era of video‐assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). Methods A retrospective analysis of all consecutive adult patients who underwent elective anatomic lung resections between January and December 2020 at our institution was performed. Results Eighty patients (40 VATS, 40 thoracotomy) were included. The 30‐day mortality rate was 1.3%. The overall rate of major postoperative complications was 18.8%. Most major complications occurred in patients who underwent open surgery (complication rate 32.5%, share of total complications 86.7%). Major morbidity after VATS resection was rare (complication rate 2.5%, share of total complications 13.3%). In univariable analysis, thoracotomy (p = 0.003), impaired preoperative lung function (p = 0.003), complex surgery (p = 0.004) and sleeve resection (p = 0.037) were associated with adverse outcomes. In multivariable analysis, thoracotomy (p = 0.044) and impaired preoperative lung function (p = 0.028) were the only independent risk factors for major postoperative morbidity. Conclusion Thoracotomy was associated with a 10‐fold increased risk for postoperative complications compared with minimally invasive surgery and was an independent risk factor for surgical complications. In the era of VATS and ERAS, the fact that thoracotomy is performed may be a reliable parameter to identify patients at risk for postoperative complications.

Abstract
Background Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death worldwide. The enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program is an effective evidence-based multidisciplinary protocol of perioperative care. However, the roles of ERAS in lung cancer surgery remain unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the short-term impact of the ERAS program on lung resection surgery, especially in relation to postoperative complications. Methods A systematic literature search of PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library databases until October 2020 was performed to identify the studies that implemented an ERAS program in lung cancer surgery. The studies were selected and subjected to data extraction by 2 reviewers independently, which was followed by quality assessment. A random effects model was used to calculate overall effect sizes. Risk ratio (RR), risk difference (RD), and standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) served as the summary statistics for meta-analysis. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were subsequently performed. Results A total of 21 studies with 6,480 patients were included. The meta-analysis indicated that patients in the ERAS group had a significantly reduced risk of postoperative complications (RR =0.64; 95% CI: 0.52 to 0.78) and shortened postoperative length of stay (SMD=-1.58; 95% CI: -2.38 to -0.79) with a significant heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis showed that the risks of pulmonary (RR =0.58; 95% CI: 0.45 to 0.75), cardiovascular (RR =0.73; 95% CI: 0.59 to 0.89), urinary (RR =0.53; 95% CI: 0.32 to 0.88), and surgical complications (RR =0.64; 95% CI: 0.42 to 0.97) were significantly lower in the ERAS group. No significant reduction was found in the in-hospital mortality (RD =0.00; 95% CI: -0.01 to 0.00) and readmission rate (RR =1.00; 95% CI: 0.76 to 1.32). In the qualitative review, most of the evidence reported significantly decreased hospitalization costs in the ERAS group. Conclusions The implementation of an ERAS program for surgery of lung cancer can effectively reduce risks of postoperative complications, length of stay, and costs of patients who have undergone lung cancer surgery without compromising their safety.

Elsayed HH, Moharram AA. Tailored anaesthesia for thoracoscopic surgery promoting enhanced recovery: The state of the art. Anaesth Crit Care Pain Med 2021; 40:100846. [PMID: 33774262 DOI: 10.1016/j.accpm.2021.100846] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2020] [Revised: 11/30/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW The current review focuses on precise anaesthesia for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) with the goal of enhanced recovery. The main aim of an enhanced recovery program after thoracic surgery is to reduce postoperative stress response, protect from postoperative pulmonary complications, give hospitals a better financial option and improve overall patient outcome. This can ultimately reduce hospital stay and increase patient satisfaction. With advances in endoscopic, robotic and endovascular techniques, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) can be performed in a minimally invasive way in managing most pulmonary, pleural and mediastinal diseases. As a minimally invasive technique, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) represents an important element of enhanced recovery program in thoracic surgery as it can achieve most of its goals. Anaesthetic management during preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative period is essential for the establishment of a successful enhanced recovery program. In the era of enhanced recovery protocols, non-intubated thoracoscopic procedures present a step forward. This article focuses on the key anaesthetic elements of the enhanced recovery program during all phases of thoracoscopic surgery. Having reviewed recent literature, a systematic review of literature will highlight successful ERAS protocols published for thoracoscopic surgery.

Abstract
Background This study evaluates the effect of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways on postoperative outcomes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all consecutive patients undergoing VATS lobectomy for NSCLC between January 2014 and October 2019 and assigned them to the relevant group (“pre-ERAS” or “ERAS”). Length of stay, readmissions and complications within 30 days were compared between both groups. A propensity score-matched analysis was performed based on sex, age, type of operation, comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score and preoperative pulmonary functions. Results A total of 307 records (164 male/143 female; 140 ERAS/167 pre-ERAS; median age: 67) were reviewed. There was no statistical difference in patient’s characteristics. Overall ERAS compliance was 81%. The ERAS group presented significantly shorter length of stay (median 5 vs. 7 days; P=0.004) without significant difference in cardiopulmonary complication rate (27.1% vs. 35.9%; P=0.1). Readmission (3.6% vs. 5.4%; P=0.75) and duration of drainage (median 2 vs. 3 days; P=0.14) were similar between groups. The propensity score-matched analysis showed that the length of hospital stay was reduced by 1.4 days (P=0.034) and the postoperative cardiopulmonary complication rate by 13% (P=0.044) in the ERAS group. Conclusions Adoption of an ERAS pathway for VATS lobectomies in NSCLC patients has decreased the length of hospital stay and the cardiopulmonary complication rate without affecting the readmission rate.
