Introduction

• Small bowel obstruction is a very common surgical problem. Very little has changed with regard to the surgical techniques. If acute with no previous surgery then surgery intervention sooner, directed by the principle of “never let the sun set on a bowel obstruction ”.  With previous surgery and no hernias we often advocate watching. 

•Not all small bowel obstructions are the same and they can be associated with the risk of ischemia. Cases with ischemia are an emergency. In fact ischemia can be the cause of the obstruction. These cases have the highest risks and often are associated with the poorest outcomes, associated with a significant morbidity and mortality rate which has remained largely unchanged over the last few decades.

Introduction con’t

The recent advances are not technical but more focused on the decision of whether to operate or not.

The surgeon can find it very difficult to determine if there is bowel ischemia, and in addition even harder to predict the morbidity and mortality with any surgery. Knowledge of preoperative risk factors and an estimation of morbidity and mortality would aid in decision making for physicians and patients

This can be a factor in the decisions regarding surgery such as the timing, the extent of the surgery and whether to operate or not.

Such information can help post operatively in treatment decisions.

Review of NSQIP Data with Specific Aims 

• To identify preoperative and intra‐operative risk factors associated with post‐operative outcomes in patients with bowel ischemia and poor outcomes. 

• To develop a reliable and clinically meaningful morbidity and mortality risk calculator which would aid in surgical decision making and informed patient consent in patients with risk of bowel ischemia who are critically ill and will likely need a bowel resection.

Methodology

• The American College of Surgeons’(ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database was used for the study.

• Data were obtained from the 2007 and 2008 ACS NSQIP participant user data files.

• NSQIP collects 136 perioperative variables for patients undergoing major surgical procedures.

• Only patients undergoing bowel resection for bowel ischemia in the dataset were included using American Medical Association’s Current procedural terminology (CPT) codes for bowel surgeries.

Outcome

• Outcome variables were morbidity (occurrence of major complications) and mortality.

• Outcomes are assessed up to 30 postoperative days in NSQIP except for length of stay which is tracked up to discharge from hospital.

Methodology

•A risk calculator was developed which is in the form of an interactive spreadsheet that accepts patients covariate information.

• It returns estimated probability percentage of morbidity and mortality based on the statistical models used.

Factors not associated with adverse postoperative outcomes:

• Segment of bowel involved (small bowel vs colon).

• Type of resection- creation of ostomy vs primary anastomosis.

Conclusion

•Morbidity and mortality rates following bowel resection for bowel ischemia are very high.

•Admission from chronic care facility, preoperative Do Not Resuscitate status, cardiac, pulmonary and renal comorbidities, dependent functional status, emergency procedure, class 4 wound and operative time are associated with a significantly increased postoperative risk.

•This risk calculator is based on the ACS NSQIP data and was developed to accurately estimate postoperative morbidity and mortality after bowel resection for bowel ischemia.  

•The risk calculator is designed to aid in surgical decision‐making, informed patient consent and management planning in critically ill who have had surgery with the finding of ischemia bowel.

Introduction

• Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an uncommon surgical emergency which occurs due to impairment of mesenteric arterial or venous circulation.

• It is associated with a significant morbidity and mortality rate which has remained largely unchanged over the last few decades.

• Given such poor outcome, knowledge of preoperative risk factors and an estimation of morbidity and mortality would aid in decision making for physicians and patients.
