Risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications and prolonged hospital stay in pulmonary resection patients: a retrospective study
2021, Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology (English Edition)Citation Excerpt :The outcome is composed of eight clinically relevant PPCs (pneumonia, atelectasis requiring fibrobroncoscopic intervention, bronchospasm requiring pharmacological treatment for more than 24 hours, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), pleural effusion requiring surgical intervention, aspiration of gastric contents, hypoxemia and pneumothorax). Medical records were evaluated by three team members applying diagnostic criteria established in the literature for assessment of complications.13–19 Diagnosis of hypoxemia was considered if patients presented with pulse oximetry (SpO2) value less than 90% for more than 24 hours, along with the necessity of oxygen therapy.
Comparative effects of open-lung positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and fixed PEEP on respiratory system compliance in the isoflurane anaesthetised healthy dog
2019, Research in Veterinary ScienceCitation Excerpt :Lung atelectasis formation occurs during general anaesthesia in approximately 90% of human patients (Gunnarsson et al., 1991). Atelectasis is associated with decreased respiratory system compliance (Crs) and impaired gas exchange (Bendixen et al., 1963; Don, 1977), which may favour postoperative complications such as hypoxaemia and pneumonia in people (Brooks-Brunn, 1995; Lindberg et al., 1992). However, the clinical impact of the development of atelectasis occurring during general anaesthesia on postoperative lung function and oxygenation in healthy dogs remains unknown.

2017, Annals of Vascular SurgeryCitation Excerpt :Pneumonia was associated with both specific subsequent respiratory complications as well as more general complications across organ systems. In general, postoperative pneumonia has been shown to be associated with increased resource utilization as well as morbidity and mortality.11,12 The rate in our cohort was similar to what has been previously reported.8,9
