Postoperative Hypoxia and Length of Intensive Care Unit Stay after Cardiac Surgery: The Underweight Paradox?
OBJECTIVE Cardiac operations with cardiopulmonary bypass can be associated with postoperative lung dysfunction. The present study investigates the incidence of postoperative hypoxia after cardiac surgery, its relationship with the length of intensive care unit stay, and the role of body mass index in determining postoperative hypoxia and intensive care unit length of stay. DESIGN Single-cente...
متن کاملCorrelation between Quality of Care and Length of Hospital Stay in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Background: Length of hospital stay (LHS) is the most important and practical indicator in hospitals, which largely reflects the level of hospital performance and activity. It is also an important indicator for resource planning. Moreover, the quality of care can theoretically be related to LHS. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between LHS and quality of nursing care in...
متن کاملeuro score as a predictor of extended intensive care unit stay after cardiac surgery
conclusions in our center, prolonged length of stay in the icu correlated positively with euro score. the overall predictive performance of euro score is acceptable and provides both surgeons and intensivists with a good estimate of patient risk in terms of icu stay. background risk stratification models allow preoperative assessment of individual patients cardiac surgical risk and enable analy...
متن کاملDoes EuroSCORE predict length of stay and specific postoperative complications after cardiac surgery?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the performance of EuroSCORE in the prediction of in-hospital postoperative length of stay and specific major postoperative complications after cardiac surgery. METHODS Data on 5051 consecutive patients (isolated [74.4%] or combined coronary artery bypass grafting [11.1%], valve surgery [12.0%] and thoracic aortic surgery [2.5%]) were prospectively collected. The EuroSCO...
متن کاملDeterminants of the length of stay in intensive care and in hospital after coronary artery surgery.
BACKGROUND Patients who have coronary artery surgery normally occupy intensive care beds for less than 24 hours. Longer stays may result in under use of cardiac surgical capacity. One approach to optimise surgical throughput is prospectively to identify fast track patients--that is, those who occupy an intensive care bed for less than 24 hours. A prospective audit of patients was performed to i...
