Predicting respiratory complications after pulmonary surgery is important for thoracic surgeons. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between preoperative brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and postoperative respiratory complications (PRC).
A total of 383 patients with primary or metastatic lung cancer who underwent surgical resection were included in this retrospective study. The cut-off value of elevated BNP was set as 35 pg/mL, and its relationship with PRCs was analyzed. Risk factors for PRCs were determined using a logistic regression model.
Among the patients, 66 (17%) experienced PRCs: 24% 14% with BNP levels ≥35 and <35 pg/mL, respectively (P=0.02). In patients with a BNP level ≥35 pg/mL, the development of PRCs was higher in those who underwent lobectomy (34%) than in those who underwent sublobar resection (14%) (P=0.01). Univariate [odds ratio (OR): 1.947, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.13-3.352, P=0.02] and multivariate (OR: 1.838, 95% CI: 1.032-3.273, P=0.04) analyses revealed a significant association between a preoperative BNP level ≥35 pg/mL and a higher risk of PRCs in all patients.
Preoperative BNP levels ≥35 pg/mL were associated with an increased risk for PRCs, suggesting its potential utility for identifying patients with elevated risk for PRCs before pulmonary surgery.
预测肺手术后的呼吸并发症对于胸外科医生来说很重要。本研究旨在阐明术前脑钠肽(BNP)水平与术后呼吸并发症(PRC)之间的关系。
本回顾性研究纳入了383例行手术切除的原发性或转移性肺癌患者。将BNP升高的临界值设定为35 pg/mL,并分析其与PRC的关系。使用逻辑回归模型确定PRC的危险因素。
在这些患者中,66例(17%)发生了PRC:BNP水平≥35 pg/mL和<35 pg/mL的患者分别为24%和14%(P=0.02)。在BNP水平≥35 pg/mL的患者中,接受肺叶切除术的患者发生PRC的比例(34%)高于接受肺叶以下切除术的患者(14%)(P=0.01)。单因素分析[比值比(OR):1.947,95%置信区间(CI):1.13 - 3.352,P=0.02]和多因素分析(OR:1.838,95% CI:1.032 - 3.273,P=0.04)显示,术前BNP水平≥35 pg/mL与所有患者发生PRC的较高风险之间存在显著关联。
术前BNP水平≥35 pg/mL与PRC风险增加相关,提示其在肺手术前识别PRC风险升高患者方面的潜在效用。
