Summary

Postoperative pulmonary complications are important factors affecting the prognosis of patients undergoing surgery. Studies have shown that patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic surgery, emergency surgery, or prolonged surgery are more likely to develop PPCs, especially when robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery is performed at extreme head low. The incidence of PPCs and associated risk factors in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery compared with those undergoing conventional surgery should be re-examined.

Detailed description

PPCs include bronchospasm, atelectasis, lung infections (bronchitis and pneumonia), exacerbation of pre-existing chronic lung disease, the need for mechanical ventilation after surgery, and respiratory failure. Risk factors for PPCs include preoperative and intraoperative factors. Preoperative was mainly related to the primary status of patients, including age, weight, ASA grade, organ function status, medication history, hypoproteinemia, and concomitant chronic kidney disease, congestive heart failure, COPD, asthma, pulmonary interstitial disease, pulmonary hypertension, and OSA. In this study, elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic surgery under general anesthesia were selected to prospectively collect basic characteristics, preoperative examination results and perioperative data, and determine the incidence and risk factors of PPCs in this high-risk population cohort. The aim of our study was to determine the incidence of PPCs in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic pelvic surgery and to screen for associated risk factors.
