The effects of paravertebral blockade usage on pulmonary complications, atrial fibrillation and length of hospital stay following thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery - 28/04/22
Abstract |
Study objective |
Although combined thoracic paravertebral blockade (TPVB)-general anesthesia (GA) could improve pain control compared to GA alone after thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery, it has not been established whether this improvement in pain control could reduce associated adverse outcomes. Thus, this study aimed to explore the association between TPVB usage and adverse outcomes after thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery.
Design |
Retrospective cohort study from a prospective database.
Setting |
A high-volume thoracic center in China.
Patients |
13966 consecutive patients who received thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery from January 2016 to December 2018 in Shanghai Chest Hospital were enrolled.
Measurements |
With a 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis, adverse outcomes between GA alone and GA-TPVB were investigated. Multivariate and multiple linear regression analysis were used to identify factors and calculate odds radio (OR) for adverse outcomes.
Results |
The rate of TPVB usage was 14.8% (2070 out of 13,966). TPVB combined with GA was associated with lower rates of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) (30.4% vs 33.5%, P = 0.005) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) (2.1% vs 2.9%, P = 0.041), and shorter length of hospital stay (LOS) (Median [IQR]; 5[4-5] vs 5[4-6]) days, P < 0.001) compared to GA alone. After a 1:1 PSM analysis, we investigated adverse outcomes in 2640 (1320 pairs) patients with or without TPVB usage, and this association remained existed, namely, the rates of PPCs (29.8% vs 34.2%, P = 0.014) and POAF (2.2% vs 3.6%, P = 0.028) were lower and LOS was shorter (5[4-5] vs 5[4-6] days, P < 0.001) in the GA-TPVB group. In multivariate analysis, the combination of GA plus TPVB was independent predictor for PPCs (OR = 0.879, 95%CI, 0.793–0.974, P = 0.014) and POAF (OR = 0.714, 95%CI, 0.516–0.988, P = 0.042), respectively. However, in multiple linear analysis, lower rates of PPCs and POAF associated with TPVB usage, rather than TPVB usage, were responsible for the reduced LOS.
Conclusions |
The usage of TPVB may be a feasible and adjustable approach to reduce the rates of PPCs and POAF and associated LOS in thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery.

• | This study retrospectively reviewed 13,966 patients who underwent thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery from January 2016 to December 2018. |
• | In thoracoscopic lung cancer surgery, TPVB usage may be a feasible and adjustable method to reduce the rates of PPCs and POAF and associated LOS. |
• | This study identified four independent predictors both for PPCs and POAF rarely reported in previous study, providing reference for preoperative consultation, surgical planning and risk stratification. |
