Anesthetic Management and One-Year Mortality After Noncardiac Surgery

Monk, Terri G., Saini, Vikas, Weldon, B Craig, Sigl, Jeffrey C.·2005·Anesthesia & Analgesia

Abstract

In Brief Little is known about the effect of anesthetic management on long-term outcomes. We designed a prospective observational study of adult patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery with general anesthesia to determine if mortality in the first year after surgery is associated with demographic, preoperative clinical, surgical, or intraoperative variables. One-year mortality was 5.5% in all patients (n = 1064) and 10.3% in patients ≥65 yr old (n = 243). Multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards modeling identified three variables as significant independent predictors of mortality: patient comorbidity (relative risk, 16.116; P < 0.0001), cumulative deep hypnotic time (Bispectral Index® <45) (relative risk = 1.244/h; P = 0.0121) and intraoperative systolic hypotension (relative risk = 1.036/min; P = 0.0125). Death during the first year after surgery is primarily associated with the natural history of preexisting conditions. However, cumulative deep hypnotic time and intraoperative hypotension were also significant, independent predictors of increased mortality. These associations suggest that intraoperative anesthetic management may affect outcomes over longer time periods than previously appreciated. IMPLICATIONS: A prospective, longitudinal study of 1-yr postoperative mortality after noncardiac surgery confirms that comorbidity is the primary predictor and that intraoperative hypotension and prolonged cumulative deep hypnotic time are also significant risk factors. Intraoperative anesthetic management may have a greater effect on long-term outcomes than previously appreciated.

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.
