Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to create a new prognostic model to estimate the risk of pulmonary complications after elective surgery, which is the leading cause of post-surgery death.
  • Data from a large international cohort of over 86,000 patients was used, applying machine learning techniques to identify risk factors for complications like pneumonia and respiratory distress.
  • The model, named the GSU-Pulmonary Score, was validated with additional cohorts and is available as an online tool to assist in patient care and resource management, especially important during pandemic recovery.

Background: Severe complicated intra-abdominal sepsis (SCIAS) has an increasing incidence with mortality rates over 80% in some settings. Mortality typically results from disruption of the gastrointestinal tract, progressive and self-perpetuating bio-mediator generation, systemic inflammation, and multiple organ failure. A further therapeutic option may be open abdomen (OA) management with negative peritoneal pressure therapy (NPPT) to remove inflammatory ascites and attenuate the systemic damage from SCIAS, although there are definite risks of leaving the abdomen open whenever it might possibly be closed.
