• CARDIAC -HTN/CAD/CHF-Dysrhythmias-cardiomyopathy

• DM/Thyroid/Adrenal• AIRWAY•Vascular assessment

PULMONARY FUNCTION

Reduced compliance of lung and chest wall.

Reduced lung volume.

Increased respiratory resistance.

Increased work of breathing.

Koening SM.Am J Med Sci 2001

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

Dyspnea with exertion.Significant impairement of pulmonary

function , often with few symptoms.Reduction in lung volumes atelectasis,

airway closure hypoxia.Reduction of functional residual capacity

rapid desaturation during apnea at anesthesia induction.

Koening SM.Am J Med Sci 2001

PRE OPERATIVE PULMONARY EVALUATIONPreoperative pulmonary function tests are

indicated for patients with1- documented pulmonary problems.2- limited performance status because of

dyspnea.3- BMI > 60 kg/m2.

Arterial blood gas hypoventilation in severely obese patients.

Identify risk for postoperative hypoxia.Facilitate postoperative respiratory care.

Koening SM.Am J Med Sci 2001Benotti P.Surg Obes Relat Dis 2006

PULMONARY EVALUATIONForced vital capacity varies inversely with

BMI.Patients with very high BMI , even when

asymptomatic will have major reductions in lung function*.

Patients with preoperative pulmonary impairement Significant risk for hypoxia during the immediate postoperative period Bi-level positive airway pressure in recovery room preserve oxygenation**.

No evidence of gastric pouch problems related to its use***.

•Santana AN , et al .Respir Med 2006** Ebeo CT, et al. Respir Med 2002 & Joris JL et al.Chest 1997*** Huerta S , et al J Gastrointest Surg 2002

OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA ( OSA)75 % of PATIENTS

The prevalence increases with BMI.*

OSA is an independent risk factor for metabolic syndrome ( impaired glucose tolerance-insulin

resistance and dyslipidaemia)**for all-cause mortality***

*Hallowell PT, et al .American Journal of Surgery 2007**Chung SA , et al.Anesthesiology 2008*** Marshall NS et al.Sleep 2008.

OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA ( OSA)Detailed clinical history is mandatory.Symptoms: - Heavy snoring - Witnessed apnea. - Excessive daytime somnolence. - Lack of restful sleep.

Questionnaire: STOP, Berlin, ASA Check list. Patients with suspected OSA preoperative sleep study

(Polysomnography)& titration of CPAP.Consequence of OSA can be reversed by CPAP or BiPAP

Benumof JL Journal of Clinical Anesthesia , 2001

STOP QUESTIONNAIRESTOP Questionnaire is concise and easy –to use screening tool

for OSA.1-Do you snore loudly?2- Do you often feel tired , fatigued or sleepy during day time?3- Do you have or are you being treated for high blood pressure?4- Has any one observed you stop breathing during sleep?

Combined with BMI age neck size & gender,

STOP = high sensitivity

especially for patients

with moderate to severe OSA

Chung F. Anesthesiology 200818

Validation of the Berlin Questionnaire and American Society of Anesthesiologists Checklist as screening tools for obstructive sleep apnea in surgical patients

The Berlin questionnaire and ASA checklist demonstrated a moderately high level of sensitivity for OSA screening.

STOP Questionnaire and the ASA checklist were able to indentify the patients who were likely to develop postoperative complications.

Chung F , Anesthesiology 2008

OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA ( OSA) & POLYSOMNOGRAPHY

Routine preoperative PSGcost effective lacking improved outcome => not part of ASA practice guidelines for the

perioperative management of patients with OSA.

ASA practice guidelines for the perioperative management of patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Anesthesiology 2006.

A referral for PSG study should be individualized.

POTENTIALLY LIFE –THREATENING SLEEP APNEA IS UNRECOGNIZED WITHOUT AGGRESSIVE EVALUATION.

Hallowell P.American J of Surgery 2007

Era 1= OSA evaluation based on clinical parameters.Era2= Mandatory OSA evaluation for all patients

POTENTIALLY LIFE –THREATENING SLEEP APNEA IS UNRECOGNIZED WITHOUT AGGRESSIVE EVALUATION.

OSA is grossly underdiagnosed.Clinical evaluation misses a % of patients with OSA.

Mandatory testing with Polysomnography

PREOPERATIVE SMOKING HABITS AND POSTOPERATIVE PULMONARY COMPLICATIONS

Smoking is a proven risk factor for postoperative pulmonary complications.

The risk declines with cessation of smoking

for 8 weeks before surgery.Most bariatric programs insist on abstinence

from smoking before-hand. Bluman LG, Chest 1998

CARDIAC EVALUATIONCardiac abnormalities associated with morbid obesity

include: * - Systemic hypertension. - Ischemic heart disease - cardiac hypertrophy. - Cardiac arrhythmias - diastolic dysfunction - Deep vein thrombosis. - Frank systolic dysfunction with cardiomyopathy.** - Pulmonary hypertension*** - Pulmonary embolism - Congestive heart failure. - Poor exercise capacity - Increased incidence of sudden and unexplained

death**** *Poirier et al.Circulation 2009,

**Thakur V,et al. Am J Med Sci 2001. ***Alpert MA. Am J Med Sci 2001.

CARDIAC EVALUATIONCardiac evaluation can be difficult to ascertain.Clinical history limited mobility.Clinical examination muffled heart sounds. short thick neck conceal JVP SEDENTARY LIFE peripheral edema.Functional capacity 4 METS =climbing a flight

VASCULAR ACCESS

ENDOCRINE FUNCTION15 -20% of morbidly obese patients have type 2

diabetes.Glucose control requires close preoperative attention.Hyperglycemia (> 220 mg/dl) inhibits many important

functions of polymorphonuclear leucocytes.Good preoperative glycemic control in terms of HbA1c

below 7% is associated with a reduced infection risk .Specialist consultation will be necessary.Thyroid function tests Adrenal function tests ( if Cushing’s Syndrome)
