"Perioperative fluid management"

BACKGROUND: The use of balanced crystalloids over normal saline for perioperative fluid management during kidney transplantation and its benefits on acid-base and electrolyte balance along with its influence on postoperative clinical outcomes remains a topic of controversy. Therefore, we conducted this review to assess the impact of balanced solutions compared to normal saline on outcomes for kidney transplant patients. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing balanced lower-chloride solutions to normal saline in renal transplant patients...

INTRODUCTION: Obesity increases the risk of morbidity and mortality during surgical procedures. Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is a new concept for perioperative fluid management that has been shown to improve patient prognosis. This study aimed to investigate the role of the Pleth Variability Index (PVI), systolic pressure variation (SPV), and pulse pressure variation (PPV) in maintaining tissue perfusion and renal function during GDFT management in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG)...

INTRODUCTION: Worldwide, ERAS® Society guidelines have ushered in a new era of perioperative care. The purpose of this systematic review is to compare published core elements and pharmacotherapy recommendations embedded within ERAS® Society abdominal and thoracic surgery (ATS) guidelines. Determining whether a consensus exists for pharmacological core items would make future guideline preparation for similar surgeries more standardized and could improve patient care by reducing unnecessary protocol variations...

The present review discusses restrictive perioperative fluid protocols within enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways. Standardized definitions of a restrictive or liberal fluid regimen are lacking since they depend on conflicting evidence, institutional protocols, and personal preferences. Challenges related to restrictive fluid protocols are related to proper patient selection within standardized ERAS protocols. On the other hand, invasive goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) is reserved for more challenging disease presentations and polymorbid and frail patients...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To provide an approach to perioperative fluid management for lung resection patients that incorporates the entire patient pathway in the context of international guidelines on enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). RECENT FINDINGS: The concern with intraoperative fluid management is that giving too little or too much fluid is associated with worse outcomes after lung resection. However, it has not emerged as a key care element in thoracic ERAS programs probably due to the influence of other ERAS elements...

Dynamic preload parameters are used to guide perioperative fluid management. However, reported cut-off values vary and the presence of a gray zone complicates clinical decision making. Measurement error, intrinsic to the calculation of pulse pressure variation (PPV) has not been studied but could contribute to this level of uncertainty. The purpose of this study was to quantify and compare measurement errors associated with PPV calculations. Hemodynamic data of patients undergoing liver transplantation were extracted from the open-access VitalDatabase...

BACKGROUND: Despite the high perioperative risk profile, international guidelines for anesthesia and intensive care unit (ICU) care in pediatric kidney transplantation do not exist. Optimizing hemodynamics can be challenging in these patients, while scientific data to guide decisions in hemodynamic monitoring, hemodynamic targets, and perioperative fluid management are lacking. The limited annual number of pediatric kidney transplantations, even in reference centers, necessitates the urge for international collaboration to share knowledge and develop research and guidelines...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cytoreduction surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an extensive surgery associated with significant fluid shift and blood loss. The haemodynamic management and fluid therapy protocol may impact postoperative outcomes. This systematic review was conducted to find the effect of haemodynamic monitoring and perioperative fluid therapy in CRS-HIPEC on postoperative outcomes. METHODS: We searched PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar...

Perioperative fluid management, a critical aspect of major surgeries, is characterized by pronounced stress responses, altered capillary permeability, and significant fluid shifts. Recognized as a cornerstone of enhanced recovery protocols, effective perioperative fluid management is crucial for optimizing patient recovery and preventing postoperative complications, especially in high-risk patients. The scientific literature has extensively investigated various fluid infusion regimens, but recent publications indicate that not only the volume but also the type of fluid infused significantly influences surgical outcomes...

BACKGROUND/AIM: The impact of perioperative fluid management on postoperative morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the independent association between perioperative fluid balance (FB) and clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) in PD patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 243 consecutive open PD patients were included. Intra- and postoperative FB until postoperative day 3 were calculated, and their predictive performance for POPF was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis...

The medical complexity of the geriatric patients has been steadily rising. Still, as outcomes of surgical procedures in the elderly are improving, centers are pushing boundaries. There is also a growing appreciation of the importance of perioperative fluid management on postoperative outcomes, especially in the elderly. Optimal fluid management in this cohort is challenging due to the combination of age-related physiological changes in organ function, increased comorbid burden, and larger fluid shifts during more complex surgical procedures...

Optimal perioperative fluid management is crucial, with over- or under-replacement associated with complications. There are many strategies for fluid therapy, including liberal fluid therapy (LFT), restrictive fluid therapy (RFT) and goal-directed fluid therapy (GDT), without a clear consensus as to which is better. We aimed to find out which is the more effective fluid therapy option in adult surgical patients undergoing non-vascular abdominal surgery in the perioperative period. This study is a systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA) with node-splitting analysis of inconsistency, sensitivity analysis and meta-regression...

BACKGROUND: The association between perioperative fluid management and complications in pancreatoduodenectomy patients remains controversial. We explored the association between fluid management and radiological signs of complications. METHODS: We examined pancreatoduodenectomy patients operated between July 2014 and December 2015 (n = 125) and between January 2017 and June 2018 (n = 124). The first cohort received intraoperative fluid management according to a goal-directed strategy and the second cohort was treated conventionally...

BACKGROUND: While central venous pressure (CVP) measurement is used to guide fluid management for high-risk surgical patients during the perioperative period, its relationship to patient prognosis is unknown. METHODS: This single-center, retrospective observational study enrolled patients undergoing high-risk surgery from February 1, 2014 to November 31, 2020, who were admitted to the surgical intensive care unit (ICU) directly after surgery. Patients were divided into the following three groups according to the first CVP measurement (CVP1) after admission to the ICU: low, CVP1 <8 mmHg; moderate, 8 mmHg≤ CVP1 ≤ 12 mmHg; and high, CVP1 >12 mmHg...

The purpose of perioperative fluid management in children is to maintain adequate volume status, electrolyte level, and endocrine system homeostasis during the perioperative period. Although hypotonic solutions containing glucose have traditionally been used as pediatric maintenance fluids, recent studies have shown that isotonic balanced crystalloid solutions lower the risk of hyponatremia and metabolic acidosis perioperatively. Isotonic balanced solutions have been found to exhibit safer and more physiologically appropriate characteristics for perioperative fluid maintenance and replacement...

BACKGROUND: Perioperative fluid management during major abdominal surgery has been controversial. Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a critical complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). We conducted a retrospective cohort study to analyze the impact of intraoperative fluid balance on the development of POPF. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study enrolled 567 patients who underwent open pancreaticoduodenectomy, and the demographic, laboratory, and medical data were recorded...

Lung transplantation is the definitive end-stage treatment for many lung diseases, and postoperative pulmonary oedema severely affects survival after lung transplantation. Optimizing perioperative fluid management can reduce the incidence of postoperative pulmonary oedema and improve the prognosis of lung transplant patients by removing the influence of patient, donor's lung and ECMO factors. Therefore, this article reviews seven aspects of lung transplant patients' pathophysiological characteristics, physiological characteristics of fluids, the influence of the donor lung on pulmonary oedema as well as current fluid rehydration concepts, advantages or disadvantages of intraoperative monitoring tools or types of fluids on postoperative pulmonary oedema, while showing the existing challenges in section 7...
