Effect of standardized fluid management on cardiac function after CRS + HIPEC in patients with PMP: a single-center case-control study

Abstract

AbstractObjective To investigate the effects of standardized fluid management (SFM) on cardiac function in patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).Method Patients with PMP who underwent CRS + HIPEC at our center were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into control and study groups according to whether SFM was applied after CRS + HIPEC. We compared the preoperative and postoperative cardiac and renal function parameters, daily fluid volume three days after CRS, and cardiovascular-related adverse events. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the indicators affecting clinical prognosis.Result Among the 104 patients, 42 (40.4%) were in the control group and 62 (59.6%) in the study group. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the main clinicopathological characteristics, preoperative cardiac and renal function parameters, and CRS + HIPEC-related indicators. The incidences of cardiac troponin I (CTNI) > upper limit of normal (ULN), >2 × ULN, >3 × ULN, serum creatinine > ULN, and blood urea nitrogen > ULN were higher in the control group than in the study group (p 2 × ULN was an independent risk factor for serious circulatory adverse events. Survival analysis revealed pathological grading, completeness of cytoreduction score, and postoperative CTNI > ULN as independent prognostic factors.Conclusions SFM after CRS + HIPEC in patients with PMP may reduce cardiovascular adverse events risk and improve clinical outcomes.
