Abstract
Background: Frailty is increasingly recognized as a perioperative risk for numerous surgical diseases. We applied the modified frailty index (mFI-11) to the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) for patients undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC).
Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of the NIS (2015-2019) including CRC patients undergoing surgery. We classified patients into frail (ie, mFI ≥0.27) and robust (ie, mFI <0.27) categories. Primary outcomes were in-hospital postoperative morbidity and mortality. The secondary outcomes included system-specific postoperative morbidity and length of stay (LOS). Multivariable regression models were fit.
Results: Within the 53,652 identified patients undergoing surgery for CRC, 19.1% were frail. Frail patients were at higher risk of postoperative mortality (3.1% vs 1.0%, odds ratio [OR] 1.96, 95% confidence intervals [CIs] 1.68-2.30, P < 0.001), morbidity (41.3 % vs 23.1%, OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.66-1.83, P < 0.001), and LOS (mean difference [MD] 1.46, 95% CI 0.29-1.62, P < 0.001). Significant differences existed between groups in system-specific postoperative morbidity, with the largest effect estimates seen in cardiovascular morbidities (OR 4.07, 95% CI 3.36-4.93, P = 0.001), followed by respiratory (OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.66-1.83, P = 0.001).
Conclusion: Frail patients undergoing CRC surgery are at risk of increased postoperative complications. Preoperative frailty screening may allow for individualized preoperative counseling.
背景:虚弱越来越被认为是许多外科疾病的围手术期风险。我们将修正的衰弱指数(mFI-11)应用于接受结直肠癌(CRC)手术的国家住院患者样本(NIS)。方法:我们对NIS(2015-2019)进行回顾性分析,包括接受手术的结直肠癌患者。我们将患者分为虚弱(即mFI≥0.27)和强壮(即mFI)。结果:在53,652例接受结直肠癌手术的患者中,19.1%虚弱。体弱患者术后死亡率(3.1% vs 1.0%,优势比[OR] 1.96, 95%可信区间[CI] 1.68 ~ 2.30, P < 0.001)、发病率(41.3% vs 23.1%, OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.66 ~ 1.83, P < 0.001)和LOS(平均差[MD] 1.46, 95% CI 0.29 ~ 1.62, P < 0.001)的风险较高。两组间系统特异性术后发病率存在显著差异,心血管发病率的影响最大(OR 4.07, 95% CI 3.36-4.93, P = 0.001),其次是呼吸系统发病率(OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.66-1.83, P = 0.001)。结论:接受结直肠癌手术的体弱患者术后并发症风险增加。术前虚弱筛查可以提供个体化的术前咨询。
