背景:比较通过2-氰基丙烯酸辛酯加聚合物网状胶带(2OPMT)与常规可吸收缝线加防水伤口敷料(CSWWD)进行胸骨切开术用于心脏手术的临床和经济结果。
方法:使用PremierHealthcare数据库进行回顾性研究。包括需要使用2OPMT或CSWWD进行胸骨切开术的心脏手术的患者。主要结果是伤口并发症诊断的60天累积发生率(感染,开裂)。次要结果是住院住院时间(LOS),住院费用总额,放电状态,住院患者再入院和再手术的60天累积发生率。在倾向得分匹配后,使用双变量多水平混合效应广义线性模型比较2OPMT组和CSWWD组的结局.
结果:总体而言,7,901名2OPMT患者和10,775名CSWWD患者符合研究条件。在68个变量的倾向得分匹配后,每组包括5,338例患者(总研究N=10,676).2OPMT和CSWWD组在伤口并发症的60天累积发生率方面没有显着差异(3.47%vs3.47%,p=0.996),住院患者再入院(12.6%与13.6%,p=0.354),和再次手术(10.3%对10.1%,p=0.808),以及家庭生活与非家庭生活(77.2%与75.1%),p=0.254。然而,2OPMT组的LOS明显降低(9.2天vs10.6天,p<0.001)和医院总费用(50,174美元对60,526美元,p<0.001)。
结论:这项大型观察性研究提供的证据表明,与CSWWD相比,采用2OPMT的胸骨切开术皮肤闭合与伤口并发症的60天累积发生率几乎相同。同时表现出与较低的LOS和医院总费用的显着关联。试用注册不适用。
BACKGROUND: To compare clinical and economic outcomes after sternotomy for cardiac surgery with skin closure through 2-octyl cyanoacrylate plus polymer mesh tape (2OPMT) versus conventional absorbable sutures plus waterproof wound dressings (CSWWD).
METHODS: Retrospective study using the Premier Healthcare Database. Patients undergoing a cardiac surgery requiring sternotomy with 2OPMT or CSWWD were included. Primary outcome was 60-day cumulative incidence of diagnosis for wound complications (infection, dehiscence). Secondary outcomes were index admission hospital length of stay (LOS), total hospital-borne costs, discharge status, and 60-day cumulative incidences of inpatient readmission and reoperation. After propensity score matching, outcomes were compared between the 2OPMT and CSWWD groups using bivariate multilevel mixed-effects generalized linear models.
RESULTS: Overall, 7,901 2OPMT patients and 10,775 CSWWD patients were eligible for study. After propensity score matching on 68 variables, each group comprised 5,338 patients (total study N = 10,676). The 2OPMT and CSWWD groups did not differ significantly in terms of the 60-day cumulative incidences of wound complication (3.47% vs 3.47%, p = 0.996), inpatient readmission (12.6% vs. 13.6%, p = 0.354), and reoperation (10.3% vs 10.1%, p = 0.808), as well as discharge to home versus non-home setting (77.2% vs. 75.1%), p = 0.254. However, the 2OPMT group had significantly lower LOS (9.2 days vs 10.6 days, p < 0.001) and total hospital-borne costs ($50,174 vs $60,526, p < 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS: This large observational study provides evidence that sternotomy skin closure with 2OPMT is associated with nearly identical 60-day cumulative incidence of wound complication as compared with CSWWD, while exhibiting a significant association with lower LOS and total hospital-borne costs.
