Optimizing the surgical patientDana Doll D.O.
Chair of AnesthesiaSt Michaels Hospital
Stevens Point, WI
40 million anesthetics are administered each year in this country. Anesthesiologists provide or participate in more than 90 percent of these anesthetics
10 percent of the United States population undergoes non-cardiac surgery annually.
Over 8 million have known CAD or cardiac risk factors.
Over 50,000 will suffer a perioperative myocardial infarction. (0.2%)
Surgery statistics
What are You Really Being Asked to Do?
Assess risks of anesthesia Assess the risks of the procedure Manage “complicated” medical problems Predict the future
Review the AHA/ACC guidelines for the cardiac evaluation for a non-cardiac surgery
Discuss OSA and anesthesia Discuss NPO status Medications to have and to hold Expectations for surgical procedures Anesthesia planning
objectives
ASA Physical Status Classification System
For emergent operations, you have to add the letter ‘E’ after the classification.
Surgical risk
“The purpose of preoperative evaluation is not to give medical clearance, but rather to perform an evaluation of the patient’s current medical status; make recommendations concerning the evaluation, management, and risk of cardiac problems over the entire perioperative period; and provide a clinical risk profile that the patient, primary physician, anesthesiologist, and surgeon can use in making treatment decisions…”
Kim A. Eagle, FACC, Chair, ACC/AHA Task Force on Practice Guidelines for Perioperative Cardiovascular Evaluation for Noncardiac Surgery
ACC/AHA 2007 Guidelines on Perioperative Cardiovascular
Evaluation and Care for Noncardiac Surgery
The overriding theme of this document is that intervention is rarely necessary to simply lower the risk of surgery unless such intervention is indicated irrespective of the preoperative context.
ACC/AHA 2007 Guidelines on Perioperative Cardiovascular
Evaluation and Care for Noncardiac Surgery
Optimizing the patient is optimizing the oxygen supply and demand. HR and BP control
Slower less O2 demand Lower BP less work for heart less o2 demand
Respiratory optimization Less O2 dissolved less to deliver Pulmonary HTN to CHF
Renal optimization Acidosis Fluid overload
Hematologic optimization O2 carrying capacity
Neurologic optimization Cushing reflex

CABG or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Class I
Any person who meets criteria according to ACC/AHA guidelines for revascularization ( Level of Evidence: A )
Class IIa Revascularization with PCI for mitigation of cardiac symptoms and elective noncardiac
surgery in the subsequent 12 months, balloon angioplasty or bare-metal stent placement followed by 4 to 6 weeks of dual-antiplatelet therapy. ( Level of Evidence: B )
drug-eluting coronary stents and who must undergo urgent surgical procedures that mandate the discontinuation of thienopyridine therapy, it is reasonable to continue aspirin if at all possible and restart the thienopyridine as soon as possible. ( Level of Evidence: C )
Class IIb High-risk ischemic patients (e.g., abnormal dobutamine stress echocardiograph with at
least 5 segments of wall-motion abnormalities). ( Level of Evidence: C ) low-risk ischemic patients with an abnormal dobutamine stress echocardiograph

Prophylactic coronary revascularization in patients with stable CAD before noncardiac surgery. ( Level of Evidence: B )
Elective noncardiac surgery within 4 to 6 weeks of bare-metal coronary stent implantation or within 12 months of drug-eluting coronary stent implantation in patients in whom thienopyridine therapy, or aspirin and thienopyridine therapy, will need to be discontinued perioperatively. (Level of Evidence: B )
Elective noncardiac surgery is not recommended within 4 weeks of coronary revascularization with balloon angioplasty. ( Level of Evidence: B )
Who gets coronary revascularization?

Labs
Formal spirometry rarely indicated Subjective response to bronchodilators Detailed H&P
Smoking cessation 24 hours will decrease carboxyhemoglobin levels 2-3 days will increase ciliary function but increase secretions 1-2 weeks will decrease secretions 4-8 weeks will decrease postop pulmonary complications relative risk of pulmonary complications among smokers as
compared with nonsmokers ranges from 1.4 to 4.3
Pulmonary
Prevalence of sleep disordered breathing is 9% in women and 24% in men
Overt OSA has been estimated to be 2% in women and 4% in men
OSA is an independent risk factor for perioperative pulmonary complications
Case report demonstrates hemodynamic changes associated with apneic episodes
Pulse increase of up to40 bpm coinciding with hypoxia Similar increases in SBP with levels above 180 mmHg coinciding with
arousal Hemodynamic instability did not respond to supplemental oxygen
but resolved with CPAP Postoperative nocturnal hypoxia precipitated myocardial
ischemia in patients undergoing major vascular surgery
OSA
Length of Stay 7.2 days in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea not
using CPAP 6.0 days if patients on CPAP 5.1 days for patients in the control group
Unplanned transfer to the ICU 33.3% in patients with undiagnosed Obstructive Sleep
Apnea 12.3% in patients with known Obstructive Sleep Apnea 6% in controls

Anti-reflux Seizure/ Parkinson Psych– inform anesthesiologist Bronchodilators OCP– unless stopped for DVT prevention Steroids – will likely get stress dose Thyroid replacement Pain meds– inform anesthesiologist
Medications to take or not to take
Do not take day of surgery Diuretics ACE/ ARB Potassium Diabetes oral medications
Metformin-- lactic acidosis Basal insulin ½ dose Hold bolus doses while NPO
NSAIDs/ ASA * Herbal supplements – one week
Medications to take or not to take
NSAIDs Diclofenac, IBU, indomethacin, keto – 1 day hold Naproxen and sulindac –3 day hold Meloxicam, nabumetone, piroxicam – 10 day hold
COX2 inhibitors –2 days (nephrotoxicity) Antiplatelet

reviewing indications and minimum duration from stenting and discussing with anesthesia, surgeon, and cardiologist
Warfarin – 5 days with bridging
Meds associated with bleeding
Dabigatran (pradaxa) Creatinine clearance > 50 then stop 2 days Creatinine clearance < 50 then stop 5 days Consider doubling days of cessation prior to
surgeries with high risk of bleeding Rivaroxaban (Xarelto)
Stop at least 1-2 days before procedure longer if chronic kidney disease or very high risk of
bleeding Ticlopidine (Ticlid)– stop 5 days before surgery
Newer anticoagulants
Rule: 2, 4, 6, 8 rule applies to all ages No clear liquids within 2 hours of surgery Clear liquid definition
Water, Fruit juice without pulp (e.g. apple juice), Gatorade, Pedialyte, Carbonated beverage, Clear tea, Black coffee
Not allowed as clear liquid: Milk, milk products or Alcohol No breast milk within 4 hours of surgery No solid foods within 6 hours of surgery
Includes orange juice with pulp, light meals (toast or crackers), infant formula and milk
No fried foods, fatty foods or meats within 8 hours of surgery These foods are associated with delayed gastric emptying
Fasting guidelines
Cough cold fever chills – is patient ever optimized? Fever never good If surgery will fix problem then usually reasonable
ASA 3 should go to pediatric center Oral sedation available
Prolongs wake up times and discharge times Mask induction until age 8-12 depending on
maturity level PIV needed otherwise
Pediatric pearls
Regional and anticoagulation Talk with anesthesia providers Give patients preview of what to expect Talk about NPO Tell them about general anesthesia, spinals,
nerve blocks, sedation Pain expectations
Planning for anesthetic technique
Reviewed the AHA/ACC guidelines for the cardiac evaluation/ preparation for a non-cardiac surgery
Discussed respiratory optimization Talked about day of surgery planning Examined the benefit of really understanding
the surgical process to better inform our patients
