POASAC Study (Preoperative Anemia Severity and Classification Study)

Recruiting
Conditions
Anemia
Registration Number
NCT06499974
Lead Sponsor
Peking Union Medical College Hospital
Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study focuses on the effect of different preoperative anemia status on perioperative complications in patients under moderate- to high-risk surgery. Different anemia types conclude iron-deficiency anemia(IDA), anemia of chronic disease/anemia of inflammation(ACD/AI), and combined anemia.The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference in the incidence of complication related to oxygen supply and demand imbalance in patients with IDA, ACD/AI or combined anemia.

Patients without preoperative anemia will be recruited as the control group for secondary outcome analysis, which is whether there is a difference in the incidence of complication related to oxygen supply and demand imbalance in patients with or without anemia.

Detailed Description

The investigators aim to screen patients according to including and excluding criteria. According to the hemoglobin level, if the patient is anemia, the investigators will offer some lab tests for serum iron, transferrin saturation, C-reactive protein to classify different anemia status. Besides, the investigators will include patients without anemia in a 2:1 ration of anemia to non-anemia. The perioperative assessment and follow-up are the same for all the included patients.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
postoperative complications related to oxygen supply and demand imbalancebefore discharge or until seven days after surgery

The occurrence of any of the following complications is considered a positive outcome, which include myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery(MINS), acute kidney injury(AKI), neurological damage such as stroke and delayed neurocognitive recovery(DNR)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postoperative functional disability1 month, 6 months and 1 year after surgery

The World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHO DAS2.0) is used for disability assessment.

The incidence of post complications related to oxygen supply and demand imbalance in patients with or without anemiabefore discharge or seven days after surgery

The occurrence of any of the following complications is considered a positive outcome, which include myocardial injury after non cardiac surgery(MINS), acute kidney injury(AKI), neurological damage such as stroke and delayed neurocognitive recovery(DNR)

RBC Transfusion rateFrom date of surgery until discharge day, assessed up to 4 weeks

The above information can be got according to the medical record

Length of hospital stayFrom date of surgery until discharge day, assessed up to 4 weeks

The above information can be got according to the medical record

Cognitive function decline1 month, 6 months and 1 year after surgery

The modified Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status(TICS-m) is used for cognitive function assessment.

Severe complicationbefore discharge, 1 month, 6 months and 1 year after surgery

Evaluated according to Clavien-Dindo classification, level three to five are defined as severe complication.
