Transcript of Prediction tools CXR Low yield in in patient without risk factors In a systematic review of 14...
Prediction tools• CXRLow yield in in patient without risk factorsIn a systematic review of 14 studies abnormal CXR lead
to Rx change in 10% of cases without changing PPC rate.
• ABG Cardiac, thoracic, abdominal surgeries Pts who have SOB or smokers Pt with abnormal pulse oximetry
Prediction tools
• Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing Purely lung resection surgery
MVO2 maximum oxygen consumption
MVO2 > 20ml/kg low risk
MVO2 < 10 ml/kg very high risk
• Stair climbing Prospective study in 110 pts who underwent high risk procedures
thoracotomy , sternotomy or upper abd sx
7 Flights of stairs each flight consists of 18 steps

Lung ResectionThe risks associated with thoracotomy can be divided into 2 categories:
I- short-term riskperioperative morbidity and mortality
II- long-term riskactivity limitation resulting from loss of lung reserve.
Low RiskFEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in one second ) 1.2 L
Predicted postoperative FEV1.8 L or 40% predicted
MVV ( Maximum Voluntary Ventilation) 50% predicted
High Risk PCO2 45 or PO2 50
Predicted Postoperative FEV1 0.7 L 40% predicted
Poor exercise performance

Preventive Measures
• Incentive spirometry & deep breathing exercises
Meta-analysis of 14 studies of incentive spirometry & deep-breathing exercises Vs no intervention
odds ratios of 0.44 and 0.43 for PPC
Preoperative education reduces PPC to a greater degree than instruction that begins after surgery
Arch Phys Med Rehab 1985 & AmRev Respir Dis 1984
Preventive Measures
Non invasive positive pressure ventilation • Prospective study of 72 post abdominal Sx pts with acute
hypoxic failure were treated with escalating PSV /PEEP to achieve target tidal volume of 8-10 ml/kg .
• 48/72 (67%) avoided intubation
• LOS was shorter 17 days Vs 34 days
• Mortality was less 6% Vs 29%
• 10/72 had esophageal & gastric surgery no leak

Take Home Message
• Conducting detailed history taking & physical examination should be the first screening tool
• Investigations selection had to tailored to detected abnormalities
• Risk factors for PPC are either patient or procedure related. It could be modifiable or non modifiable
• The variation in definition of PPC & patient population lead to different reported rate of PPC
• All prediction tools of PPC have not been validated after being derived further studies is needed
