Postoperative Albumin Drop Is a Marker for Surgical Stress and a Predictor for Clinical Outcome: A Pilot Study
Open accessAbstract
Background. Surgical stress during major surgery may be related to adverse clinical outcomes and early quantification of stress response would be useful to allow prompt interventions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the acute phase protein albumin in the context of the postoperative stress response.Methods. This prospective pilot study included 70 patients undergoing frequent abdominal procedures of different magnitude. Albumin (Alb) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured once daily starting the day before surgery until postoperative day (POD) 5. Maximal Alb decrease (Alb Δ min) was correlated with clinical parameters of surgical stress, postoperative complications, and length of stay.Results. Albumin values dropped immediately after surgery by about 10 g/L (42.2±4.5 g/L preoperatively versus 33.8±5.3 g/L at day 1,P<0.001). Alb Δ min was correlated with operation length (Pearsonρ=0.470,P<0.001), estimated blood loss (ρ=0.605,P<0.001), and maximal CRP values (ρ=0.391,P=0.002). Alb Δ min levels were significantly higher in patients having complications (10.0±5.4 versus 6.1±5.2,P=0.005) and a longer hospital stay (ρ=0.285,P<0.020).Conclusion. Early postoperative albumin drop appeared to reflect the magnitude of surgical trauma and was correlated with adverse clinical outcomes. Its promising role as early marker for stress response deserves further prospective evaluation.

“The postoperative decline in serum albumin is consistent with the catabolic response to major surgery and hemodilution following perioperative fluid administration [17].”

“As a negative acute-phase reactant, serum albumin decreases in response to systemic inflammation, capillary leak, and perioperative stress, and postoperative declines have been shown to correlate with operative duration, blood loss, inflammatory response, complications, and length of stay [20, 21].”

“As the half-life of plasma albumin (PA) is 18–20 days [5,6], changes in PA levels over shorter time periods (hours or a few days) mainly reflect an acute condition, such as that encountered after surgery or a bloodstream infection (BSI) [4,7].”

“…albumin is a well-established prognostic marker in surgical patients, its long half-life of approximately 20 days implies that early postoperative levels primarily reflect baseline hepatic function and perioperative fluid shifts rather than acute changes in hepatic synthetic capacity [14–16 , 39 ].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
