Pneumonia After Cardiovascular Surgery: Incidence, Risk Factors and Interventions

Abstract: Postoperative pneumonia (POP) is prevalent in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery, associated with poor clinical outcomes, prolonged hospital stay and increased medical costs. This article aims to clarify the incidence, risk factors, and interventions for POP after cardiovascular surgery. A comprehensive literature search was performed to identify previous reports involving POP after cardiovascular surgery. Current situation, predictors and preventive measures on the development of POP were collected an… Show more

“…Although RBC transfusions are routine in traditional cardiovascular surgery to deal with bleeding and improve tissue oxygen delivery, there is growing evidence that the restrictive RBC transfusion strategy is safe and effective, which has been recommended by practice guidelines [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ]. In addition, previous studies have found that the risk factors identified in this study are related to the development of various postoperative respiratory complications, such as pneumonia to some extent, which may indirectly increase the risk of the need for POTs [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ].…”

“…Similarly, pneumonia was considered the most common pulmonary complications after pediatric congenital heart surgery 18 , 34 . Compared with other pulmonary complications such as atelectasis, pleural effusion and pneumothorax, pneumonia has a higher rate, greater severity, and poor prognosis after surgery.…”
