Risk factors of mortality and severe disability in the patients with cerebrovascular diseases treated with perioperative mechanical ventilation.

Abstract

BACKGROUNDThe prognosis of cerebrovascular diseases treated with mechanical ventilation during perioperative has not been clearly reported.AIMTo analyze mortality and functional disability and to determine predictors of unfavorable outcome in the patients with cerebrovascular diseases treated with mechanical ventilation. METHODSA retrospective follow-up study of 111 cerebrovascular disease patients who underwent mechanical ventilation during the perioperative period in the First Hospital of Jilin University from June 2016 to June 2019 was performed. Main measurements were mortality and functional outcome in-hospital and after 3-month follow-up. According to the modified rankin scale (mRS), the functional outcome was divided into three groups: Good recovery (mRS ≤ 3), severe disability (mRS = 4 or 5) and death (mRS = 6). Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences between three functional outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to for risk factors of mortality and severe disability.RESULTSThe average age of 111 patients was 56.46 ± 12.53 years, 59 (53.15%) were males. The mortality of in-hospital and 3-month follow-up were 36.9% and 45.0%, respectively. Of 71 discharged patients, 46.47% were seriously disabled and 12.67% died after three months follow-up. Univariate analysis showed that preoperative glasgow coma scale, operation start time and ventilation reasons had statistically significant differences in different functional outcomes. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the cause of ventilation was related to the death and poor prognosis of patients with cerebrovascular diseases. Compared with brainstem compression, the risk of death or severe disability of pulmonary disease, status epilepticus, impaired respiratory center function, and shock were 0.096 (95%CI: 0.028-0.328), 0.026 (95%CI: 0.004-0.163), 0.095 (95%CI: 0.013-0.709), 0.095 (95%CI: 0.020-0.444), respectively.CONCLUSIONThe survival rate and prognostic outcomes of patients with cerebrovascular diseases treated with mechanical ventilation during the perioperative period were poor. The reason for mechanical ventilation was a statistically significant predictor for mortality and severe disability.
