Background: Several studies have shown that bedside lung ultrasound findings in postanaesthesia care units (PACUs) and intensive care units (ICUs) correlate with postoperative pulmonary complications(PPCs) after noncardiac major surgery. However, it remains unclear whether lung ultrasound findings can be used as early predictors of PPCs in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The main aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between early postoperative point-of-care lung ultrasound findings and PPCs after cardiac surgery. Methods: Two board-certified physicians performed a point-of-care pulmonary ultrasound on cardiac surgery patients approximately 2 h after the patient was admitted to the ICU. Pulmonary complications occurring within 30 days postoperatively were recorded. Logistic regression modeling was used to analyze the relationship between lung ultrasound findings and PPCs. Results: PPCs occurred in 61 (30.9 %) of the 197 patients. Lung ultrasound scores(LUS), number of lung consolidation(NLC), and depth of pleural effusion(DPE) were more significant in patients who developed PPCs (P 0.95(aOR 3.79,95%CI 1.60–8.99; p = 0.002) were found to be independently associated with PPCs during this study. Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that DPE >0.95 and NLC ≥3 were associated with PPCs after cardiac surgery based on bedside lung ultrasound findings in the ICU. When these signs manifest perioperatively, the surgeon should be alerted and the necessary steps should be taken, especially if they present simultaneously. |
