Abstract

Amaç: Abdominal
cerrahilerde postoperatif pulmoner komplikasyonlar (PPK), morbitide ve
mortalitenin önemli bir nedenidir. Ayrıca hastanede yatış süresini uzatan
önemli bir faktördür.

Preoperatif değerlendirme,
komplikasyonların tahmin edilmesinde ve önlem alınmasında önemli bir yer
oluşturmaktadır. Değerlendirme sıklıkla öykü, fizik muayene, akciğer grafisi,
solunum fonksiyon testleri, gerekli olgularda arteriyel kan gazı, ve egzersiz
testleri ile yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, diğer değerlendirme parametrelerinden
farklı olarak PPK’ı öngörmede yaşam kalitesinin önemini araştırmayı amaçladık.

Yöntem:
Çalışmamıza
Genel Cerrahi AD’da elektif batın cerrahisi yapılacak olan 124 hasta
alınmıştır. Hastalar ameliyat öncesi 1 haftalık dönemde değerlendirilmiş ve
nottingham sağlık profili (NSP) skoru hesaplanmıştır. Postoperatif 48.saat
sonrasında semptomlar ve komplikasyonlar incelenerek, preoperatif NSP değerleri
ile karşılaştırılmıştır.

Bulgular PPK görülen
hastalarda NSP-total puanı ort. 125,71
± 114,09 puan ve
görülmeyenlerde ort. 63,65
± 72,75 puandı
(p=0.002). Fiziksel mobilite, ağrı, enerji düzeyi, duygusal reaksiyon, uyku
durumu, ve sosyal izolasyon düzeylerine göre yapılan değerlendirmede emosyonel
durum haricinde diğer tüm puanlar komplikasyon görülen hastalarda daha yüksek
saptandı. Mortalite görülen hastaların ort. 209,31
±  130,74 puan olduğu görüldü. Hastalar NSP puanlarına göre grup-1 (0-49,9), grup-2
(50,0-99,9), grup-3 (100-149,9) ve grup-4 (>150 puan) olarak
sınıflandırıldı. Buna göre grup-4 olan hastalarda %72,7 pulmoner
komplikasyon görüldü (p<0.001). Yine 150 puan ve üzeri olan hastalarda
solunumsal komplikasyonlar 7,6 kat, solunum dışı komplikasyonlar ise 6,7 kat
artmış bulundu.









Sonuç: Çalışmamız,
hastaların NSP puanı 150 ve üzerinde olması durumunda komplikasyonların daha
fazla olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca NSP sağ kalımı da iyi predikte etmiştir. Bu
sonuçlar ile NSP’nin preoperatif risk değerlendirmede yararlı olabileceği
düşünülmüştür.

The role of health quality in predicting postoperative pulmonary complications

Abstract

Aim: Postoperative pulmonary
complications (PPC) in abdominal surgeons is an important factor that prolongs
the hospitalization period as well as is an important cause of morbidity and
mortality. Preoperative evaluation is an important part of estimating
complications and taking precautions. However, pulmonary function tests,
arterial blood gases, and exercise tests are used in the evaluation. In this
study, we aimed to investigate the importance of quality of life in predicting
PPC different from other evaluation parameters.



Patients
and Methods:
124 patients who were assigned for various elective abdominal procedures
in department of surgery; were included in the study. Notthingham health
profile (NHP) scores 1 week prior to the surgery were calculated for each
patient and were compared to the pulmonary complications (PPC) that evolved in
the postoperative 48th hour.

Results:
In
patients with PPC mean NHP score was 125,71 + 114,09 and in patients
without PPC the score was found to be 63,5 + 72,75. The
difference among the groups was statistically significant. The patients were
distributed in to 4 groups according to their score and in group 4 (>150)
pulmonary complication rate was 72,7% (p<0.001). 
Patients were classified according to their NHP scores as group-1 (0-49,9),
group-2 (50,0-99,9), group-3 (100-149,9) and group-4 (150 points).
Furthermore; in group-4;
pulmonary complication frequency was 7,6 times greater than the others.



Conclusion:
In the
present study it is found that patients with a NHP score greater than 150
encountered complications more frequently. Therefore; it can be assumed that
NHP scoring system can be used in preoperative evaluation and postoperative
risk prediction.
