EVIDENCE TO SAY NO TO STARVATION!
Mendelson's syndrome
2006 saw the 60th anniversary of the publication of New York obstetrician Curtis Lester Mendelson's classic paper, ‘The aspiration of stomach contents into the lungs during obstetric anesthesia’.
Mendelson went on to show that acid was responsible for this asthma-like syndrome. He instilled into the respiratory tracts of rabbits a variety of substances including 0.1N hydrochloric acid and vomitus (both untreated and neutralized) from pregnant women.
He concluded that gastric retention of solid and liquid material is prolonged during labour, and that aspiration of vomitus into the lungs can occur while laryngeal reflexes are abolished.
‘Respiratory failure secondary to aspiration pneumonitis during anaesthesia’ became synonymous with Mendelson's syndrome, and its prevention a cornerstone of anaesthetic practice.
Key pointsResidual gastric volume (RGV) and pH (two surrogate end-points of aspiration risk) are determined by oral intake, gastric secretion and gastric emptying. A 2 h fasting interval (vs. midnight) for fluids neither increases RGV nor decreases pH.
Gastric emptying of liquids is an exponential process. The half-time for water is about 10 min. It is wrong to regard the stomach as either ‘empty’ or ‘full’, and induction of anaesthesia ‘safe’ or ‘unsafe’.
Current accepted fasting intervals for elective cases are 2 h for water and clear fluids, 4 h for breast milk, and 6 h for food (including milky drinks). ‘Nil by mouth from midnight’ has no place in modern perioperative practice.
Gastric emptying is impaired by trauma, labour and opioid analgesia. Fasting intervals assume limited importance compared with other aspects of the anaesthesia regimen (e.g. choice of airway management) in the prevention of aspiration.
The ‘top 3’ risk factors for aspiration are emergency surgery, light anaesthesia/unexpected response to stimulation and upper/lower gastrointestinal pathology.
CHO LOADING
What is it?• 100G ;12.5% ;CHO
PREVIOUS DAY NIGHT• 50G ;12.5% ;CHO 2 HOURS
BEFORE SURGERY• CHO MUST BE COMPLEX
MALTODEXTRINS AND NOT THE PLAIN GLUCOSE!!!
• NEED A COMMERSIAL FEED FOR THIS PURPOSE!
Advantages• Gives satisfaction • Decreases stress• Decrease insulin resistance• No increase in GRV• No increase in aspiration
• CAN HAVE NORMAL ORAL DIET 2 HOURS AFTER REGIONAL AND 4 HOURS AFTER GENERAL ANAESTHESIA
• DON’T EVER RESIST THE NATURAL APPETITE!
SAY NO TO PREMEDICATION
• ADMISSION ON THE DAY OF SURGERY
• NO NEED TO PREMEDICATE• SEDATIVES DELAYS RECOVERY• NO ROLE FOR PROPHYLACTIC
ANTIEMETICS• GASTRIC ACID SUPPRESSION
DELAYS APPETITE• GLYCO TAKES OUT THE
TASTE /DYSPHAGIA
PREMED• SEDATIVE
DIAZEPAM
• H2 BLOCKER/PROTON INHIBITORS RANITIDINE/OMEPERAZOLE
• ANTISIALOGOUGE ATROPINE/GLYCOPYRROLATE
PONV-PREVENTION
• PREOP RISK FACTORS MILD/MODERATE/SEVERE YOUNGER/FEMALE/OBESE/ANXIETY/MOTION SICKNESS/PREVIOUS PONV
• TIVA INSTEAD OF GA IN HIGH RISK• AVOID NARCOTICS/VOLATILES/N2O/REVERSAL• LIBERAL ANTIEMETICS
MULTIMODAL STEROIDS/5HT ANTAGONIST/METACLOPROMIDE/DOMPERIDONE
PAIN RELIEF!• REGIONAL ANALGESIA MIDTHORASIC-
T8/T9; EPIDURAL LUMBAR EPIDURAL TAB-TRANSVERSUS ABDOMINIS BLOCK
• ONLY LA ; HIGH VOLUME/LOW CONCENTRATION
• NO NARCOTICS ;PREFERABLY SHORT ACTING FENTANYL; NAUSEA/ILEUS/IMMOBILITY
• BUT CLONIDINE/DEXMED IN RA
• GENEROUS USE OF NSAIDS PARENTERAL PARACETAMOL NSAID SUPPOSITORIES
Why epidural analgesia ?
EPIDURAL MANAGEMENT• IT ATTENEUATES THE STRESS RESPONSE (TETRAD OF
ANAESTHESIA) OF SURGERY/DECREASES CATACHOLAMINES
• EPIDURAL ANALGESIA IN LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERIES????
• MANAGE HYPOTENTION WITH VASOPRESSORS
• DON’T INFUSE MORE VASOPRESSORS
• USE LESS FLUID CHALLENGES
• AVOID LIMB PARESIS
• BALANCE ANALGESIA AND HYPOTENTION
INTRA-OP HYPOTHERMIA
HYPOTHERMIA PREVENTION• TEMPERATURE
MONITORING• HYPOTHERMIA MORE
COMMON WITH REGIONAL ANAESTHESIA
• O.T ROOM TEMPERATURE• EXTERNAL WARMER• FLUID WARMER
ILL EFFECTS OF HYPOTHERMIA • INFECTION• POST OP SHIVERING/STRESS• BLEEDING• MI• ARRYTHMIA
EARLY MOBILIZATION
• WALKING EPIDURAL• SEGMENTAL EPIDURAL WITH PRESERVED
BLADDER SENSATION• NO SEDATIVES• NO NARCOTICS
HIGH INSPIRED OXYGEN 80%-BAG&MASK
• OXYGEN IS REQUIRED BY IMMUNE CELLS TO PRODUCE FREE RADICALS-A DEFENCE AGAIST PATHOGENS
• NEED FOR COLLAGEN SYNTHESIS / ANGIOGENESIS
• IMPROVES ANASTAMOTIC HEALING• DECREASE SURGICAL SITE INFECTIONS• REDUCE PONV
NO DROWNING IN SURGERY!!
GOAL DIRECTED INTRAOP FLUID THERAPY
• EXCESS FLUIDS DELAYS GUT FUNCTION/CARDIAC MORBIDITY
• LiDCO/PICCO DEVICES/OESOPHAGEAL ECHO
• CO/SV/TLW ARE THE GOAL PARAMETERS
• MINIMAL GOALS-UO/MAP/CVP
• POST OP FLUIDS NOT MORE THAN 2.5 L/DAY
RESUSCITATION ELECTIVE SURGERY
WET IS BEST BALANCED IS BETTER
MAINTAIN I/O CHART AVOID POSITIVE BALANCE
=
POISON
9g Sodium Chloride = 36 Bags of Chips,or 1L Bag of Saline
The ability of the patient to get rid of the accumulated sodium is greatly curtailed in the postop period!
THE VERDICT ON SALINECompared with balanced crystalloids, saline use is associated with:• Increased mortality1
• Hyperchloremic acidosis1,2,3,4
• Adverse effects on the kidney1,2
• Increased morbidity1
• Increased resource consumption1
• DELAYED GUT FUNCTION-PARALYTIC ILEUS

The future of IV Fluid Management: Balanced Crystalloids
HOW DO I LIMIT IV FLUIDS/SODIUM?
TAKE THE DRIP DOWN ON THE
FIRST POST-OP DAY
LET US SEE WHEATHER THIS FIRE WORKS!
THANK YOU!!
