11 Immediate Preoperative Goals / Advanced Care Planning Preoperative Preparations

12 Treatment Goals and Expectations Patient expectations are influenced by their treatment preferences. Older patients are less likely to want a treatment (even if it results in cure) that may result in severe functional or cognitive impairment. Fried TR, Bradley EH, Towle VR, Allore H. N Engl J Med. 2002;346:

13 Percent of Patients Who Want the Treatment Return to Current Health Functional Impairment Cognitive Impairment Low Burden Treatment High Burden Treatment 98.7% 88.8% Fried TR, Bradley EH, Towle VR, Allore H. N Engl J Med. 2002;346:

14 What percent of older adults do you think would accept a low burden treatment (possibly for cure) if there was a chance it might result in a severe functional deficit? A. 85% B. 65% C. 45% D. 25%

15 Percent of Patients Who Want the Treatment Return to Current Health Functional Impairment Cognitive Impairment Low Burden Treatment High Burden Treatment 98.7% 25.6% 11.2% 88.8% Fried TR, Bradley EH, Towle VR, Allore H. N Engl J Med. 2002;346:

16 For Patients with Pre-existing Advance Directives: Required Reconsideration New risks, benefits, and alternatives of procedure should be discussed Ensure that approach to potential lifethreatening problems is consistent with values American College of Surgeons, 2014; American Nurses Association, 2012; American Society of Anesthesiologists, 2008

19 Intraoperative Management Anesthetic Approach Perioperative Analgesia Plan Preventing Postop Nausea and Vomiting Patient Safety in the OR Preventing Complications Fluid Management

20 Physiologic Effects of Anesthesia Medications Changes in: Systemic Vascular Resistance Cardiac Preload Baroreceptors Responses Lung Mechanics Oxygen Diffusion Neurotransmitter Function End Organ Blood Flow

21 Physiologic Changes of Aging

22 Anesthesia in the Older Adult There is insufficient evidence to recommend a single best anesthetic plan for all older adults.

23 Role of Regional Techniques for Anesthesia

24 Perioperative Analgesia in the Older Adult Directed pain history and physical Appropriately titrated for increased sensitivity Include a prophylactic bowel regimen Avoid inappropriate medications (benozos, meperidine, benadryl, Beers list,) Multimodal Use opioid-sparing and regional techniques

25 Role of Regional Techniques for Perioperative Pain

26 Preventing Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting

27 Pulmonary Considerations

29 Fluid Management in the Older Adult There is insufficient evidence to recommend a single best intraoperative fluid management plan for all older adults.

31 Postoperative Care Controlling Perioperative Acute Pain Delirium/ Cognitive Issues Functional Decline Fall Risk Pressure Ulcer and UTI Prevention Adequate Nutrition Pulmonary Complications

32 Perioperative Analgesia in the Older Adult Directed pain history and physical Appropriately titrated for increased sensitivity Include a prophylactic bowel regimen Avoid inappropriate medications (benozos, meperidine, benadryl, Beers list,) Multimodal Use opioid-sparing and regional techniques

33

34 Precipitating Factors for Delirium Pain Medications Dehydration Under-nutrition Unfamiliar environment Sleep disruption Sensory deprivation Restraints Catheters & other devices Constipation Urinary retention Physiolgic stress of surgery Infection Hypoxemia Electrolyte imbalance Neurological events Major organ dysfunction

35 Which of the following drugs is the best first line treatment for delirium in the postoperative period? A. Lorazepam B. Diphenhydramine C. Haloperidol (low dose) D. None of the above

36

37 Perverse Incentives Definition: an incentive that has an unintended and undesirable result which is contrary to the interests of the incentive makers. Fall in hospital = Never Event Prevent falls = Keep patient in bed

38

39 Functional Decline and Deconditioning For every day an older adult is immobilized, it takes at least three days to regain lost function. For older adult surgical patients, one in four experiences a significant decline in function by hospital discharge and 60% experience some loss of independence* *Berian et al. JAMA Surg preprint on line July 2016
