Abstract:
Objective:To identify the risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery.Methods:The medical records of elderly patients, aged ≥ 65 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical statusⅠ-Ⅳ, who underwent hip surgery from June 2013 to May 2019, were retrospectively collected.The patients′ sex, age, body weight, preoperative comorbidities, history of smoking and alcohol, results of the last laboratory test before surgery; mode of anesthesia, intraoperative medication, body temperature monitoring, fluid intake and output, operation time, anesthesia time; postoperative PPCs and postoperative nausea and vomiting, requirement for rescue analgesia, length of hospital stay, and perioperative blood transfusion were all collected.According to the occurrence of PPCs, patients were divided into PPCs group and non-PPCs group.Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine the risk factors for PPCs.Results:A total of 1 204 patients were finally enrolled in this study, 75 patients developed PPCs, and the incidence was 6.22%.The results of multivariate logistic regression showed that ASA physical status Ⅲ or Ⅳ, preoperative respiratory disease, postoperative transfer to intensive care unit, and perioperative blood transfusion were risk factors for PPCs, and general anesthesia combined with nerve block was a protective factor for PPCs in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery ( P<0.05). Conclusions:ASA physical status Ⅲ or Ⅳ, preoperative respiratory disease, postoperative transfer to intensive care unit, and perioperative blood transfusion are risk factors for PPCs, and general anesthesia combined with nerve block is a protective factor for PPCs in elderly patients undergoing hip surgery.
