REDUCED CONSCIOUSNESS, MALIGNANCY AND QUICK SEQUENTIAL ORGAN FAILURE ASSESSMENT (QSOFA) SCORE PREDICT MORTALITY IN OCTOGENERIAN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE CHOLANGITIS

Introduction

With improvements in healthcare access and technology, admissions of octogenarian population with acute cholangitis (AC) are increasing. Octogenarians are vulnerable to inferior outcomes. There is no study to evaluate factors predicting outcomes of AC in octogenarians. The aim of our study is identify factors predicting outcomes, and to evaluate the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score and Tokyo Guidelines 2013 (TG13) severity grading for octogenarian patients with AC.

Methods

A retrospective review of octogenarian patients admitted with AC from January 2010 to December 2016 was performed. Demographic profile, clinical presentation and discharge outcomes were studied. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), qSOFA and TG13 severity grading scores were calculated. Mortality is defined as death within 30 days of admission or in hospital mortality. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS Version 21.

Results

There were a total of 1875 patients admitted for AC, of which 284 (15%) were octogenarians. Majority (n=167, 59%) were female, with a mean age of 83 (range 80-86) years. Majority were secondary to gallstones (n=197, 69%), and 53 (19%) were due to malignancies. 140 (49%) and 8 (3%) patients fulfilled SIRS and qSOFA criteria of severity respectively. 142 (50%) and 93 (33%) of patients had a TG13 severity grading of moderate and severe respectively. Nine (3%) patients required inotropic support in the emergency department (ED) and 48 (17%) patients were admitted to critical care unit (CCU). 166 (58%) patients underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and 33 (12%) underwent percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) for biliary decompression. 8 patients underwent index cholecystectomy. Length of stay was 11.5 (range 1-91) days and 30-day mortality of 11%.

Multivariate analysis performed showed that an abnormal Glasgow coma score (p=0.017) and malignancy (p<0.001) predicted 30-day mortality. The use of ED inotropic support predicted CCU admission (p=0034). A positive blood culture (p=0.005), presence of malignancy (p<0.001), use of ED inotropes (p=0.001), and index cholecystectomy (p=0.008) predicted a longer length of stay.

qSOFA (p<0.001) and TG13 severity grading (p=0.001) were predictive of 30-day mortality. SIRS criteria did not predict 30-day mortality.

Conclusion

Reduced consciousness and malignancy predicted 30-day mortality in octogenarian patients with AC. qSOFA and TG13 severity grading system is superior to SIRS criteria in predicting mortality of octogenerians with AC.

Respuesta de SAGES al Estudio NordICC sobre el beneficio de las colonoscopias de detección

SAGES desea aclarar los resultados del estudio NordICC y colocarlos en contexto de los esfuerzos de varias agencias nacionales para reducir el riesgo de cáncer colorrectal – la segunda causa de muerte por cáncer más frecuente en los Estados Unidos-, mediante la promoción de la detección y tratamiento oportuno de las lesiones.

SAGES Response to NordICC Study Regarding Benefit of Screening Colonoscopies

The NordICC Study recently published in The New England Journal of Medicine and widely reported on by media outlets has raised questions regarding the benefit of screening colonoscopy in lowering the risk of colorectal cancer and cancer-related deaths among otherwise healthy and symptom-free men and women aged 55 to 64. Provocative headlines and commentaries have […]
