270 Background: It is well known that radical cystectomy is associated with comparatively high perioperative morbidity and mortality. In the present study, we collected data of perioperative outcomes from Hokkaido University Graduate School of Medicine and our teaching hospitals and assessed the complications and death rate within 90 days after radical cystectomy. Methods: We collected clinical data of 970 patients undergoing radical cystectomy for nonmetastatic bladder cancer in 21 institutions between 1999 and 2009. We then assessed 90-day complications and death after radical cystectomy. The complications were classified according to the modified Clavien classification. Over 40 variables were included in the analysis, including age, ASA score, BMI, comorbidity, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, clinical stage, type of urinary diversion, operative time, estimated blood loss, transfusion, and hospital stay. Statistical analysis was performed utilizing Student's t-tests, chi-square tests, and logistic regression analysis. Results: The median patient age was 70 (range, 25-91) years old. 62.5% of patients had an ASA score≥2. Regarding the urinary diversion, ileal conduit was performed in 523 (53.6%) patients, neobladder in 178 (18.4%), ureterocutaneostomy in 255 (26.3%). Median operative time was 399 (range, 100-927) minutes. Median hospital stay was 39 (0-364) days. Regarding the complications, 660 (68%) patients experienced at least one complication and death rate within 90 days after surgery was 1.34% (n=13), respectively. Of the complications, 34.1% was classified as grade 1, 41.5% as grade 2, 20.1% as grade 3, 1.1% as grade 4, 1.2% as grade 5. Multivariate analysis identified age≥70 (odds ratio 1.41), urinary diversion utilizing intestine (OR 1.58) and operative time ≥ 400 (OR 1.54) were independent risk factors. Conclusions: Death rate was 1.34%, which was compatible to reports form western high- volume centers. About two-thirds of the patients experienced at least one complication, although they were mostly classified as grade 2 or less. Age, urinary diversion, and operative time were significant risk factors for perioperative complications after radical cystectomy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract   Laparoscopic fundoplication is the gold standard for treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); however, RNY reconstruction may be an alternative option in patients with complex pathophysiology and other risk factors. This study aimed to compare perioperative and short-term outcomes between primary fundoplication and RNY reconstruction. Methods After IRB approval, a prospectively maintained esophageal surgery database was retrospectively reviewed to identify patients who underwent primary fundoplication or RNY reconstruction from September 2016 to July 2020. We retrieved perioperative outcomes (operative time, length of hospital stay, intraoperative and postoperative complications) along with GERD-Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL) scores at annual follow-up. Results During the study period, 226 patients underwent surgery (fundoplication: 210; RNY: 16). The most common indication for RNY was severe esophageal dysmotility or morbid obesity. There was only one conversion to open surgery due to adhesions (fundoplication group). The operative time, length of hospital stay, and ICU stay were significantly lower in the fundoplication group. Rates of intraoperative (fundoplication: 3% vs RNY: 0) and postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥II) (fundoplication: 3% vs RNY: 6%) were not significantly different between groups. Both groups had a significant and similar improvement of GERD-HRQL scores 1 year after surgery (Table 1). Conclusion Primary antireflux surgery is associated with low perioperative morbidity and excellent short-term outcomes. RNY reconstruction and fundoplication have similar outcomes. More liberal use of RNY reconstruction as the primary antireflux surgery in patients at high risk of failure with fundoplication should be explored.

UNSTRUCTURED All the gastrointestinal surgeries performed between April 2016 to march 2019 in our institution have been analysed for morbidity and mortality after ERAS protocols and data was collected prospectively. We performed 245 gastrointestinal and hepato-biliary surgeries between April 2016 to march 2019. Mean age of patients was 50.96 years. 135 were open surgeries and 110 were laparoscopic surgeries. Mean ASA score was 2.40, mean operative time was 111 minutes, mean CDC grade of surgery was 2.56. 40 were emergency surgeries and 205 were elective surgeries. Overall 90 days mortality rate was 8.5% and over all morbidity rate was around 9.79% . On univariate analysis morbidity was associated significantly with higher CDC grade of surgeries, higher ASA grade, more operative time, more blood products use, more hospitalstay, open surgeries,HPB surgeries and luminal surgeries(non hpb gastrointestinal surgeries) were associated with higher 90 days morbidity. On multivariate analysis no factors independently predicted morbidity. On univariate analysis 90 days mortality was predicted by grade of surgeries, higher ASA grade, more operative time, more blood products use, open surgeries and emergency surgeries. However on multivariate analysis only more blood products used was independently associated with mortality There is no difference between 90 day mortality and moribidity rates between open and laparoscopic surgeries.

<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> This study aimed to explore the complication rates of radical cystectomy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer and identify potential risk factors. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A total of 553 patients were included: 131 were operated on via an open approach (ORC), 242 patients via a laparoscopic method (LRC), and 180 by a robot-assisted procedure (RARC). Patient age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, urinary diversion type, preoperative albumin level, body mass index (BMI), pathological (TNM) stage, and surgical times were collected. The severity of complications was classified according to the Clavien-Dindo scale (Grades 1–5). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The surgical technique was significantly related to the number of complications (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.00005). Grade 1 complications were observed most frequently following LRC (52.5%) and RARC (51.1%), whereas mostly Grade 2 complications were detected after ORC (78.6%). Those with less severe complications had significantly higher albumin levels than those with more severe complications (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.05). Patients with an elevated BMI had fewer complications if a minimally invasive approach was used rather than ORC. The patient’s general condition (ASA score) did not impact the number of complications, and urinary diversion type did not affect the severity of the complications. Mean surgical time differed according to the urinary diversion type in patients with a similar TNM stage (<i>p</i> &#x3c; 0.005); however, no difference was found in those with more locally advanced disease. Longer operation time and lower protein concentration were associated with higher probability of complication rate, that is, Clavien-Dindo score 3–5. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> The risk of complications after RC is not related to the type of urinary diversion, and can be reduced by using a minimally invasive surgical technique, especially in patients with high BMI.

Abstract Purpose The Metabolic equivalent of task (MET) score is used in patients’ preoperative functional capacity assessment. It is commonly thought that patients with a higher MET score will have better postoperative outcomes than patients with a lower MET score. However, such a link remains the subject of debate and is yet unvalidated in major urological surgery. This study aimed to explore the association of patients’ MET score with their postoperative outcomes following radical cystectomy. Methods We used records-linkage methodology with unique identifiers (Community Health Index/hospital number) and electronic databases to assess postoperative outcomes of patients who had underwent radical cystectomies between 2015 and 2020. The outcome measure was patients’ length of hospital stay. This was compared with multiple basic characteristics such as age, sex, MET score and comorbid conditions. A MET score of less than four (< 4) is taken as the threshold for a poor functional capacity. We conducted unadjusted and adjusted Cox regression analyses for time to discharge against MET score. Results A total of 126 patients were included in the analysis. Mean age on date of operation was 66.2 (SD 12.2) years and 49 (38.9%) were female. A lower MET score was associated with a statistically significant lower time-dependent risk of hospital discharge (i.e. longer hospital stay) when adjusted for covariates (HR 0.224; 95% CI 0.077–0.652; p = 0.006). Older age (adjusted HR 0.531; 95% CI 0.332–0.848; p = 0.008) and postoperative complications (adjusted HR 0.503; 95% CI 0.323–0.848; p = 0.002) were also found to be associated with longer hospital stay. Other comorbid conditions, BMI, disease staging and 30-day all-cause mortality were statistically insignificant. Conclusion A lower MET score in this cohort of patients was associated with a longer hospital stay length following radical cystectomy with urinary diversion.

Background: To explore the effects of risk factors-based nursing management on the occurrence of pressure sores in hospitalized patients. Methods: From Jan 2018 to Jun 2018, 289 hospitalized patients were divided into pressure sores group [100] and control group [189] for retrospective analysis. Overall, 260 hospitalized patients from Jun 2018 to Dec 2018 were followed up for nursing intervention. Overall 130 patients received risk factors-based nursing case management were in the intervention group, whereas 130 patients who received routine nursing care were in the control group. The chi-square test and t-test were used to compare the count data and the measurement data between groups, respectively. Results: Age, body weight and proportions of patients with impaired nutritional intake, diabetes or stroke in pressure sores group were higher than those in normal group (P<0.05). Hospital stay and operative time in pressure sores group was longer than those in normal group (P<0.05). The frequency of assistant activity in pressure sores group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05).In addition, the score of uroclepsia in pressure sores group was lower than that in normal group (P<0.05). Patients in the intervention group showed lower risk for pressure sores and more satisfied than patients in control group (P<0.001). Conclusion: Advanced age, high body weight, diabetes and stroke, long hospital stay, long operative time, poor nutritional status and severe uroclepsia were independent risk factors of pressure sores. Risk factorsbased nursing case management can effectively reduce the occurrence and risk of pressure sores for hospitalized patients.

Abstract Introduction Hospital centralization effect is reported to lower complications and mortality for high risk and complex surgery operations, including colorectal surgery. However, no linear relation between volume and outcome has been demonstrated. Aim of the study was to evaluate the increased surgical volume effect on early outcomes of patient undergoing laparoscopic restorative anterior rectal resection (ARR).Methods A retrospective analysis of all consecutive patients undergoing ARR with primary anastomosis between November 2016 and December 2020 after centralization of rectal cancer cases in an academic Centre. Short outcomes are compared to those of patients operated in the same unit during the previous 10 years before service centralization. The primary outcome was anastomotic leak rate. Mean operative time, need of conversion, postoperative use of blood transfusion, radicality, in-hospital stay, number and type of complications, readmission and reoperation rate, mortality and 1-year and stoma persistence rates were evaluated as secondary outcomes.Results 86 patients were operated in the study period and outcomes compared to those of 101 patients operated during the previous ten years. Difference in volume of surgery was significant between the two periods (p 0.019) and the estimated leak rate was significantly lower in the higher volume unit (p 0.05). Mean operative time, need of conversion, postoperative use of blood transfusion and in-hospital stay (p <0.05) were also significantly reduced in Group A.Conclusion: This study suggests that the shift toward higher volume in rectal cancer surgery is associated to decreased anastomotic leak rate. Potentiation of lower volume surgical units may yield optimal perioperative outcomes.
