Abstract

Objective: Geriatric patients have the highest mortality and morbidity rates in the adult surgery population. Due to the comorbidities, it is not surprising that the mortality rates are high. In this study, a group of neurosurgery patients who are 65 years old and older were analyzed retrospectively. Material and Methods: The age, sex, diagnose, age-related disease existence, type of operation, need emergence or elective situation, Glasgow Coma Scale value, operation time, application of arterial cannule, central venous catheter and gastric tube, intraoperative blood transfusion, intraoperative antihypertensive use and postoperative intensive care unit stay of the 65 years old and older nerosurgery patients, who had an operation for intracranial pathologies in the years between 2009 and 2010, were reached. The rates of sedoanalgesia performance, difficult airway, pneumothorax and mortality rates were recorded. Results: 2567 patients were operated by the department of neurosurgery in the years of 2009 and 2010. 158 (6.1%) of these patients were in 65 years and elder age group. 66.5% of these patients were scheduled electively. The most common indication of operation was intracranial tumor with 36.1% rate. The hypertension, which was antihypertensive use needed, occured in 29% of these patients. İntraoperative blood transfusion was needed in 20.9% rate. 74.1% of these cases had postoperative intensive care unit stay. Mortality rate was 12.7%. Central venous catheterization was performed to 35.4% of the patients and pneumothorax occured in only 1.3% of them. The difficult airway was seen in the rate of 1.3%. Mean Glascow Coma Scale was 13.05± 3.73 and mean operation time was 152.88 ±74.5 minutes. Conclusion: The carefully performed preoperative evaluation, appropriate anesthetic management, rapid and atraumatic operation would help to reduce the perioperative complications in geriatric patients. The age is not a handicap alone by itself in geriatric neurosurgery patients, whose risk factors are managed appropriately.

Özet

Amaç: Yaşlı hastalar erişkin cerrahi nüfusun en yüksek mortalite ve morbidite oranına sahip hasta grubudur. Önceden var olan yandaş hastalıklar nedeni ile ölüm oranının yüksek olması sürpriz değil- dir. Bu çalışmada hastanemizde 65 ve üzeri yaş grubunda nörocerrahi uygulanan hastaların retros- pektif olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: 2009-2010 yılında intrakraniyal patolojiler nedeni ile opere edilen 65 yaş ve üzeri nörocerrahi hastalarının, yaş, cinsiyet, Glaskow Koma Skalası, operasyon süresi, tanıları, arter kate- terizasyonu, santral ven kateterizasyonu, nazogastrik tüp varlığı, vakaların acil ya da elektif olduğu, intraoperatif kan replasmanı, intraoperatif antihipertansif uygulaması varlığı, postoperatif yoğun bakım takibi olup olmadığı, mevcut olan yandaş hastalıkları ile ilgili kayıtlara ulaşıldı. Sedo-analjezi uygulaması, güç entübasyon, pnömotoraks ve mortalite oranları kaydedildi. Bulgular: 2009-2010 yılında, beyin cerrahisi kliniği tarafından 2567 hastaya cerrahi girişim uygulan- mıştı. Bu hastalardan 158 (%6.1)i 65 yaş ve üzerinde idi. Vakaların %66.5i elektif olarak planlanmıştı. En sık opere edilen vaka %36.1 oranında intrakraniyal tümördü. Vakaların %29unda intraoperatif antihipertansif kullanımını gerektirecek hipertansif atak saptandı. %20.9 oranında intraoperatif kan replasmanına ihtiyaç duyuldu. Vakaların %74.1i postoperatif yoğun bakım ünitesinde takip edildi. Mortalite oranı %12.7 idi. Hastaların %35.4ünde santral venöz kateter takıldı, yalnızca %1.3ünde pnömotoraks gelişti. %1.3 oranında zor entübasyon görüldü. Glaskow Koma Skalası ortalaması 13.05 ±3.73 ve ortalama operasyon süresi 152.88 ±74.5 dakika idi. Sonuç: Dikkatli bir preoperatif hazırlık, uygun bir anestezi yöntemi, hızlı ve atravmatik bir operasyon yaşlı hastalarda perioperatif komplikasyonları azaltmaya yardımcı olacaktır. Risk faktörleri uygun şekilde yönetilen nörocerrahi vakalarında yaş, tek başına bir engel oluşturmaz.
