METHODS: This investigation was conducted as a nested case-control study, incorporating 413 participants aged ≥ 65 years who underwent non-cardiac, non-urological elective surgeries. These individuals underwent a 30-day postoperative follow-up. Before surgery, peripheral venous blood was collected for analyzing serum creatinine (Scr), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), and high-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP). The efficacy of these biomarkers in predicting postoperative complications was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and area under the curve (AUC) values.
RESULTS: Postoperatively, 10 patients (2.42%) required ICU admission. Regarding ICU admissions, the AUCs with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the biomarker combinations of Scr × PCT and Scr × CRP were 0.750 (0.655-0.845, P = 0.007) and 0.724 (0.567-0.882, P = 0.015), respectively. Furthermore, cardiovascular events were observed in 14 patients (3.39%). The AUC with a 95% CI for the combination of Scr × CRP in predicting cardiovascular events was 0.688 (0.560-0.817, P = 0.017).
CONCLUSIONS: The innovative combinations of biomarkers (Scr × PCT and Scr × CRP) demonstrated efficacy as predictors for postoperative ICU admissions in elderly patients. Additionally, the Scr × CRP also had a moderate predictive value for postoperative cardiovascular events.

方法:这项调查是作为巢式病例对照研究进行的,纳入413名年龄≥65岁接受非心脏手术的参与者,非泌尿外科选择性手术。这些人接受了30天的术后随访。手术前,收集外周静脉血用于分析血清肌酐(Scr),降钙素原(PCT),C反应蛋白(CRP),高敏CRP(hsCRP)。使用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线分析和曲线下面积(AUC)值评估这些生物标志物在预测术后并发症中的功效。
结果:术后,10例(2.42%)需要入住ICU。关于ICU入院,Scr×PCT和Scr×CRP组合的具有95%置信区间(CI)的AUC分别为0.750(0.655-0.845,P=0.007)和0.724(0.567-0.882,P=0.015),分别。此外,14例患者(3.39%)发生心血管事件.Scr×CRP联合预测心血管事件的AUC(95%CI)为0.688(0.560~0.817,P=0.017)。
结论:生物标志物(Scr×PCT和Scr×CRP)的创新组合证明了作为老年患者术后ICU入住的预测因子的有效性。此外,Scr×CRP对术后心血管事件也有中等预测价值.
