Abstract:
Objective:This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the impact of preoperative infection with the COVID-19 on postoperative pulmonary complications of maxillofacial surgery patients.Methods:Adult patients who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia were included in this study.The patients were classified into three groups:control group,group infected with COVID-19 4 weeks before surgery,and group infected 4-6 weeks before surgery.The outcome measure was the postoperative pulmonary complications within 30 days.Perioperative data of all patients were collected.Logistic regression analysis was per-formed to assess the effect of infection with COVID-19 on postoperative pulmonary complications.Results:267 patients were in-cluded in this study.The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in control group,＜4 weeks group and 4-6 weeks group were 2.22％,11.36％,6.98％respectively.Infection with COVID-19 less than 4 weeks before surgery(OR:5.64,95％CI:1.45-21.97,P=0.006)was identified as a risk factor for postoperative pulmonary complications within 30 days.However,infection with COVID-19 during the period of 4-6 weeks did not increase the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complications.Conclusion:Infection with COVID-19 within 4 weeks before surgery increased the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after maxillofacial surgery.
