Abstract
There is no well-defined threshold for intra-operative blood transfusion (BT) in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) surgery. To address this, we devised a Machine Learning (ML)-driven prediction algorithm aimed at prompting and elucidating a communication alert for BT based on anticipated peri-operative events independent of existing BT policies. We analyzed data from 403 EOC patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery between 2014 and 2019. The estimated blood volume (EBV), calculated using the formula EBV = weight × 80, served for setting a 10% EBV threshold for individual intervention. Based on known estimated blood loss (EBL), we identified two distinct groups. The Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves revealed satisfactory results for predicting events above the established threshold (AUC 0.823, 95% CI 0.76-0.88). Operative time (OT) was the most significant factor influencing predictions. Intra-operative blood loss exceeding 10% EBV was associated with OT > 250 min, primary surgery, serous histology, performance status 0, R2 resection and surgical complexity score > 4. Certain sub-procedures including large bowel resection, stoma formation, ileocecal resection/right hemicolectomy, mesenteric resection, bladder and upper abdominal peritonectomy demonstrated clear associations with an elevated interventional risk. Our findings emphasize the importance of obtaining a rough estimate of OT in advance for precise prediction of blood requirements.

Abstract
Purpose: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effects of norepinephrine and albumin use in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer with malignant ascite in order to maintain plasma oncotic pressure and intravascular volume, to provide perioperative hemodynamic stabilization and tissue perfusion. In addition, it was aimed to compare in terms of postoperative intensive care admission, hospital stay and complications.
Materials and Methods: A total of 66 patients, 38 with ascites and 28 without ascites, who underwent cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer were included in this study. PVI and invasive arterial monitoring of the patients were performed after hemodynamic stabilization (after the start of surgery) (T0). T0, 1st hour (T1) and 2nd hour (T2) and postoperative (Tpostop.) Ascites patients were composed of 3 subgroups which the ones received norepinephrine (NE) infusion, norepinephrine + albumin (NEA) infusion or only fluid therapy (FT). From the perioperative hemodynamic and laboratory data of the patients, tissue perfusion was evaluated with lactate, and hemodynamic status was evaluated with pleth variability index (PVI), perfusion index (PI) and mean arterial pressure (MAP).
Results: Demographic and clinical findings did not differ significantly between patients with and without ascites. Lactate level in NEA / NE group in Tpostop, PVI level in T1h, T2h and Tpostop time frames were determined higher than the FT group. PI was found to be significantly lower in the T2 time frame. The postoperative ICU admission rate was higher in the NEA and NE groups. The duration of ICU stay in group NEA was shorter than in group NE.
Conclusion: We recommend the use of low-dose NE with albumin to provide perioperative hemodynamic optimization, tissue perfusion and plasma oncotic pressure in surgery of ovarian cancer with malignant ascites. Despite high fluid replacement in these patients, the use of norepinephrine and albumin together may have an important role in preventing / reducing major complications in the perioperative period.

Abstract
Background Intraoperative fluid management is important for the prevention of perioperative morbidity and mortality. Our study aimed to investigate the perioperative feasibility and benefits of Goal-Directed Fluid Management (GDFM) using noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring in gynecologic oncology patients with acute blood loss and severe fluid loss. We assessed the effects of GDFM on hemodynamics, organ perfusion, complications, and mortality outcomes. Methods This randomized prospective study included 104 patients over the age of 18 years, including 56 patients with endometrial cancer and 48 patients with ovarian cancer who had open surgery. The anesthetic approach was standardized for all patients. We compared the perioperative results of the subjects who were randomized into GDFM (n = 51) and Liberal Fluid Management (LFM) (n = 53) groups using a computer program. Results The median perioperative crystalloid replacement (2000 vs. 2700; p < 0.001) and total volume of fluid (2260 vs. 3200; p < 0.001) were lower in the GDFM group compared to the LFM group. The hemodynamic findings and the HCO3 and lactate levels of the GDFM group did not significantly change perioperatively. The heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and HCO3 levels of the LFM group decreased and serum lactate levels increased perioperatively. The hospitalization rate in ICU (7.8% vs. 28.3%; p = 0.010), rate of patients with comorbidity conditions indicated in ICU (2% vs. 17%; p = 0.024), and rate of complications (17.6% vs. 35.8%; p = 0.047) were lower in the GDFM group compared to the LFM group. Conclusion The amount of intraoperatively administered crystalloid solution and complication rates were significantly lower in gynecologic oncologic surgery patients who received GDFM. Besides, hemodynamic findings, and lactate levels of the GDFM group did not change significantly during the perioperative period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accompanying co-morbidities in patients with ovarian cancer are of major relevance for scheduling debulking surgery, especially in the anesthesiological consultations. Aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of co-morbidities and patient characteristics on postoperative complications. METHODS Patients undergoing maximal cytoreductive surgery were prospectively enrolled from October 2015 to January 2017. Various variables were recorded, such as the Charlson comorbidity index, Eastern cooperative oncology group scale of performance status (ECOG PS) and the American society of anesthesiologists physical status classification system (ASA PS). Surgical complications were graded using the Clavien-Dindo criteria. Logistic regression models were used to analyze risk factors for severe postoperative complications. RESULTS Of 106 enrolled patients, 19 (17.9%) developed severe postoperative complications grade ≥ IIIb according to Clavien-Dindo criteria. In the multivariable regression analysis impaired (ECOG PS) > 1 (odds ratio OR) 13.34, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.74-102.30, p = 0.01), body mass index (BMI) > 25 kg/m2 (OR 10.48, 95% CI 2.38-46.02, p = 0.002) along with the use of intraoperative norepinephrine > 0.11 µg/kg/min (OR 4.69, 95% CI 1.13-19.46, p = 0.03) and intraoperative fresh frozen plasma (FFP) > 17 units (OR 4.11, 95% CI 1.12-15.14, p = 0.03) appeared as significant predictors of severe postoperative complications. CONCLUSION We demonstrated that neither the presence of a certain comorbidity nor the summation of the co-morbidities were associated with adverse outcome. Patient characteristics, such as ECOG PS > 1 and obesity (BMI > 25 kg/m2), are highly predictive factors for severe postoperative complications. The analysis of intraoperative data showed that the need for more than > 0.11 µg/kg/min of norepinephrine and transfusions of FFPs more than 17 units were strongly associated with severe postoperative complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Appropriate fluid balance in the perioperative period is important as both hypo- and hypervolemia are associated with increased risk of complications. Women undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) may have major fluid shifts. The optimal perioperative fluid balance in these women is yet to be determined. Our objective was to investigate the association between perioperative fluid balance and major postoperative complications. METHODS Women with advanced stage EOC who underwent surgery at Karolinska University Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden were identified from the institutional database. Women subjected to surgery with curative intent were included in the analysis. Additional data were retrieved from medical records. The association between perioperative fluid balance and major postoperative complications was investigated by multivariable regression and adjusted for predefined confounders. RESULTS Of the 270 women identified in the institutional database during 2014-2017, 184 women were included in the analyses. Of these women, 22% (n = 40) experienced a major postoperative complication. The fully adjusted odds of major postoperative complications increased when perioperative fluid balance exceeded >3000 mL, (Odds Ratio (OR) 4.85, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.23-19.2, p = 0.02) and > 5000 mL (OR 33.7, 95% CI 4.13-275, p < 0.01). There was no association between negative fluid balance and major postoperative complications (OR 3.33, 95% CI 0.25-44.1, p = 0.36). CONCLUSIONS Fluid balance >3000 mL perioperatively during surgery for advanced EOC increased the odds of major postoperative complications. Management of perioperative fluid balance in advanced EOC surgery remains a challenge.

Abstract
AIMS Clinical studies suggest altered systemic vascular biology in cancer patients. We assessed expression patterns of endothelial activation- and vascular leakage-related genes in tumor as well as in tumor-free peripheral tissues from patients with and without ovarian cancer (OC). MAIN METHODS Patients being scheduled for laparotomy for either gynecologic benign diagnosis (n = 10) or for advanced-stage OC (n = 22) were prospectively recruited to this observational study. Serum samples were taken preoperatively, and tissue samples were taken from peripheral abdominal wall musculature, tumor-free peritoneum and the tumor itself. KEY FINDINGS Patients in OC group received significantly more fluid per time intraoperatively (p = 0.01). IL-8 and MCP-1/CCL2, VCAM-1 (CD 106) and ICAM-1 (CD 54) as well as Thrombomodulin were significantly increased in cancer patients' serum at baseline (p = 0.03). Expression of distinct vascular leakage-related genes (Angiopoietin-1 (ANG-1), ANG-2, TIE2, VEGFR1, VEGFR2) was significantly altered in tumor tissue of OC patients (p = 0.003), while in tumor-free peritoneal tissue, ANG-2/1 expression ratio was more than doubled in OC group (p = 0.03). In peripheral musculature, particularly genes from the ANG/TIE axis were significantly changed in OC patients (p = 0.005), suggesting a distinct vascular leakage-related genotype. Gene expression changes in OC patients were significantly associated with the postoperative fluid balance (p = 0.03). SIGNIFICANCE Altered expression of barrier dysfunction- and angiogenesis-associated genes from the ANG/TIE axis was detected not only in tumor but also in peripheral tissues of cancer patients. This may contribute to a systemic vascular leakage-related genotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypotension following major abdominal surgery is common, and once hypovolaemia has been optimally treated, is often due to vasodilation which can be treated with vasopressor infusions. There is unpredictability in the dose and duration of post-operative vasopressor infusions, and factors associated with this have not been determined. METHODS We present a case series of consecutive patients who received major gynae-oncology surgery delivered within an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway at a single institution. Patients were electively admitted from theatre directly to the intensive care unit (ICU). Data was collected prospectively into electronic databases (Philips ICCA, Wardwatcher) and then retrospectively collated and appropriate statistical analyses were performed. In the absence of a consensus definition of vasoplegia, we, necessarily arbitrarily, chose a noradrenaline dose of > 0.1 mcg/kg/min at 08:00 on the first post-operative day. The rationale is that this would be more than would typically be expected to counteract the vasodilatory effects of epidural analgesia, which is commonly used at our institution. RESULTS Data was collected from 324 patients, all treated between February 2014 and July 2016. The average age was 67 years and 39% received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The commonest tumour type was ovarian (58%). The median estimated blood loss was 800 ml and epidural analgesia was used in 71%. Fifty per cent received post-operative vasopressor infusions: factors associated with this included epidural use and estimated blood loss. Nineteen per cent met our criteria for vasoplegia: factors associated with this included CRP on post-operative day 1 and P-POSSUM morbidity score. Hospital and ICU length of stay was prolonged in those who had vasoplegia. CONCLUSIONS Patients commonly receive vasopressors following major gynae-oncologic surgery, and this can be at relatively high doses. Clinical factors only accounted for a minority of the variability in vasopressor usage-suggesting considerable biological variability. Optimal care of patients having major abdomino-pelvic surgery may include advanced haemodynamic monitoring and ready availability of infused vasopressors, in a suitable environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While hydroxyethyl starch (HES) solutions are not recommended any longer in critically ill patients, data on efficacy and safety during surgery are still limited. METHODS In a randomized controlled trial 63 patients were assigned to receive 10% HES (130/0.42), 6% HES (130/0.42), or crystalloid within a goal-directed hemodynamic algorithm during pancreatic surgery. The primary endpoints were intraoperative volume of HES and time until fully on oral diet. RESULTS The trial was terminated early upon recommendation of an independent data monitoring committee due to futility for efficacy at a planned interim analysis. The intraoperative volume of HES was not different between 10% and 6% HES group (2000 [1500; 2250] vs 2250 [1750; 3000] mL, P=.059). However, considering an inhomogeneity of patient's body weight between HES groups, there was a significant difference in intraoperative volume of HES between 10% and 6% group after adjusting for patient's body weight (24.0 [21.6; 28.3] vs 33.3 [28.2; 46.2] mL kg BW, P = .002). Patients in the HES groups required less additional fluid after dose limit than those in the crystalloid group, resulting in lower intraoperative net balances. The time until fully on oral diet was not different between all study groups. Applying KDIGO oliguria criterion, patients receiving 10% HES had more AKI compared to patients receiving crystalloids (86.7 vs 45.0%, P = .010), whereas those receiving 6% HES and crystalloids did not differ (58.8 vs 45.0%, P = .253). Further explorative analyses using a gray-zone approach indicated that patients receiving 6% HES below 18.8 mL kg will not experience AKI with near certainty. CONCLUSIONS After adjusting for patient's body weight, patients receiving 6% HES required more volume of HES than patients receiving 10% HES. The relation of 140% represents very well the volume effect of a hyperoncotic 10% HES solution. Nonetheless, both HES solutions were similarly effective in reducing intraoperative fluid administration compared with crystalloid, but this did not result into differences in gastrointestinal outcomes. Patients receiving 10% HES showed an increased rate of AKI, whereas those receiving 6% HES and crystalloid did not differ. However, 6% HES should not be applied beyond 18 mL kg during surgery.
