Background: Perioperative cardiac arrest is more prevalent in emergency surgery and carries substantial mortality risks; however, large-scale studies examining its incidence, aetiology, and outcomes remain scarce. This study investigated the epidemiology of perioperative cardiac arrest in emergency and elective surgeries in Japan.
Methods: We conducted a multicentre retrospective cohort study using the Japanese Intensive care PAtient Database (JIPAD), a nationwide ICU registry.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigated whether carperitide, known for its kidney-protective and diuretic properties, is effective for patients with pulmonary hypertension undergoing cardiovascular surgery.
- It analyzed data from 244 patients, with a focus on outcomes like acute kidney injury, renal replacement therapy use, urine volume, and serum creatinine levels, comparing those with and without preoperative pulmonary hypertension.
- The findings showed no significant differences in these outcomes between the two groups, implying that carperitide's effects during surgery are unaffected by the presence of pulmonary hypertension.
An 81-year-old man with lung cancer with bone metastases, interstitial pneumonia, and emphysema, was hospitalized for pain control. He developed fever and chills during hospitalization. Physical examination revealed a fever of 39.
