Inpatient Step Counts, Symptom Severity, and Perceived Health Status After Lung Resection Surgery.
2020
BACKGROUND The clinical relevance of inpatient step counts after lung surgery remains unknown. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to identify those factors related to physical activity measured by step count, during the inpatient stay, and its relationship with symptom severity and perceived health status at hospital admission, discharge, and 1 month after discharge. METHODS We studied the inpatient step count of 73 participants who underwent lung resection surgery. The number of steps was measured using a triaxial accelerometer. The health status and the severity of symptoms were examined at hospital admission, discharge, and 1 month after discharge. RESULTS Of the 73 participants, 35 wer…
Les réadmissions après résection pulmonaire en France : la base de données du PMSI
2021
BACKGROUND Readmission within 30 days is an indicator of the quality of care, because it often reflects post-discharge care that is not optimal. The objective of this work is to measure over time on the one hand the readmission rate and on the other hand the number of hospitals with a standardized readmission rate beyond the national average. METHOD All patients with major pulmonary resection for lung cancer in France were extracted from the PMSI national database. Readmission within 30 days was defined as any new hospitalization either in the same hospital or in another establishment. RESULTS From January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2018, 110,603 patients were included. The 30-day all-cause re…

Thoracic surgery in patients with a previous lung resection is a very difficult challenge for thoracic surgeons and anesthesiologists.
Guía clínica en el manejo perioperatorio para la cirugía de resección pulmonar por videotoracoscopia (Sección de Anestesia Cardiaca, Vascular y Torác…
2022
Resumen La introduccion de tecnicas toracoscopicas asistidas por video en cirugia toracica (VATS) ha permitido realizar un nuevo enfoque en la cirugia toracica. El acceso videotoracoscopico se realiza con pequenas incisiones, preservando al maximo los musculos y los tejidos. En la actualidad, la VATS se considera de eleccion en la mayoria de los procedimientos toracicos, principalmente debido a la menor morbimortalidad asociada. La reseccion pulmonar por VATS presenta reduccion de las fugas de aire prolongadas, arritmias, neumonia, dolor postoperatorio y una disminucion de los marcadores inflamatorios. Esta reduccion de las complicaciones postoperatorias esta vinculada a una reduccion de la…
Lobar lung resection in elderly patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma: impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on surgical outcome.
2014
AbstractThe aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the perioperative morbidity and mortality after lobar lung resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients aged 70 years and older. The medical records of 73 patients ≥70 years who underwent lobar lung resection for NSCLC from 2003 to 2013 at our department were reviewed retrospectively. There were 27 patients with a mean age of 73.6 years and mean predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) of 69.7% in the COPD group whereas remaining 46 patients (mean age = 75.6 years) in the non-COPD group had a mean predicted FEV1 of 79.1%. There were no significant differences i…

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for surgical complications after anatomic lung resections in the era of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS). METHODS A retrospective analysis of all consecutive adult patients who underwent elective anatomic lung resections between January and December 2020 at our institution was performed. RESULTS Eighty patients (40 VATS, 40 thoracotomy) were included. The 30-day mortality rate was 1.3%. The overall rate of major postoperative complications was 18.8%. Most major complications occurred in patients who underwent open surgery (complication rate 32.5%, share of total complications 86.7%…
Comparison of Epithor clinical national database and medico-administrative database to identify the influence of case-mix on the estimation of hospit…
2019
BackgroundThe national Epithor database was initiated in 2003 in France. Fifteen years on, a quality assessment of the recorded data seemed necessary. This study examines the completeness of the data recorded in Epithor through a comparison with the French PMSI database, which is the national medico-administrative reference database. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the influence of data quality with respect to identifying 30-day mortality hospital outliers.MethodsWe used each hospital's individual FINESS code to compare the number of pulmonary resections and deaths recorded in Epithor to the figures found in the PMSI. Centers were classified into either the good-quality data (GQD) …
Un traitement antifongique périopératoire influence-t-il la morbidité postopératoire et la survie à long terme après une résection pulmonaire pour as…
2014
Resume Objectifs Le traitement chirurgical des aspergillomes pulmonaires permet de controler les symptomes, de prevenir les complications et d’ameliorer la survie. Dans les formes accessibles a la chirurgie, l’impact d’un traitement antifongique demeure controverse. L’objectif de cette etude est d’analyser l’impact d’un traitement antifongique sur la morbidite postoperatoire et la survie globale des patients operes pour un aspergillome pulmonaire. Methodes De janvier 1989 a decembre 2010, 113 patients ont ete operes pour un aspergillome pulmonaire. Parmi eux, 64 patients ont recu un traitement antifongique dans la periode perioperatoire et ont ete inclus dans le groupe 1, 49 patients n’ont …
Current Practices in the Management of Pulmonary Ground-Glass Opacities: A Survey of SICT Members
2018
Background Several gray areas and controversies exist concerning the management of pulmonary ground-glass opacities (GGOs), and there is a lack of consensus among clinicians on this topic. One of the main aims of the Italian Society of Thoracic Surgery is to promote education and research, so we decided to perform a survey on this topic to estimate current trends in practice in a large sample of thoracic surgeons. Methods A total of 160 thoracic surgeons responded, namely, completed our questionnaire (response rate, 53%; 160 of 302). The survey was composed of 36 questions divided into six subsections: (1) demographic characteristics of the respondents; (2) terminology and taxonomy; (3) rad…
