Abstract

Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common complication of surgery associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Transfusion of packed red blood cells has been reproducibly associated with POD in many retrospective and prospective cohort studies. We review the biological evidence for a potential causal pathway between transfusion and delirium via oxidative stress and neuroinflammation, and summarize the clinical literature on delirium and transfusion to date.

∙∙ Gruber-Baldini AL, et al. Delirium outcomes in a randomized trial of blood transfusion thresholds in hospitalized older adults with hip fracture. J Am Geriatr Soc. 2013;61(8):1286–1295. This is the first published multicenter randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of randomization to a liberal or restrictive transfusion strategy on the development of delirium following hip fracture surgery. The study population was small (139 patients), highlighting some of the logistical challenges with this type of research, particularly as this was a substudy of the 2016-patient FOCUS trial. No impact on delirium severity or incidence was seen, although the study did not achieve its intended power because of a lower overall delirium rate than anticipated; however, this also indicates that permitting greater degrees of anemia (at least with hemoglobin >8 g/dL) does not increase delirium rates.

This review article summarizes current strategies to minimize or avoid allogenic transfusions perioperatively. A three-pronged approach is suggested: to optimize erythropoiesis, minimize blood loss, and manage anemia according to patient-specific and evidence-based strategies which may include transfusion. In particular, evidence for non-transfusion adjunctive therapies is elegantly reviewed.

Blutdrucksenkung schon im Rettungswagen bei akutem Schlaganfall?

31.05.2024 Apoplex Nachrichten

Der optimale Ansatz für die Blutdruckkontrolle bei Patientinnen und Patienten mit akutem Schlaganfall ist noch nicht gefunden. Ob sich eine frühzeitige Therapie der Hypertonie noch während des Transports in die Klinik lohnt, hat jetzt eine Studie aus China untersucht.

Ähnliche Überlebensraten nach Reanimation während des Transports bzw. vor Ort

29.05.2024 Reanimation im Kindesalter Nachrichten

Laut einer Studie aus den USA und Kanada scheint es bei der Reanimation von Kindern außerhalb einer Klinik keinen Unterschied für das Überleben zu machen, ob die Wiederbelebungsmaßnahmen während des Transports in die Klinik stattfinden oder vor Ort ausgeführt werden. Jedoch gibt es dabei einige Einschränkungen und eine wichtige Ausnahme.

29.05.2024 Hyponatriämie Nachrichten

Eine ältere Frau trinkt regelmäßig Sennesblättertee gegen ihre Verstopfung. Der scheint plötzlich gut zu wirken. Auf Durchfall und Erbrechen folgt allerdings eine Hyponatriämie. Nach deren Korrektur kommt es plötzlich zu progredienten Kognitions- und Verhaltensstörungen.

Häusliche Gewalt in der orthopädischen Notaufnahme oft nicht erkannt

28.05.2024 Häusliche Gewalt Nachrichten

In der Notaufnahme wird die Chance, Opfer von häuslicher Gewalt zu identifizieren, von Orthopäden und Orthopädinnen offenbar zu wenig genutzt. Darauf deuten die Ergebnisse einer Fragebogenstudie an der Sahlgrenska-Universität in Schweden hin.
