Objective: As long-term results of conservative treatment for obesity are discouraging, bariatric surgery is becoming a treatment option for extremely obese adolescents. However, mental and behavioral problems need to be respected when treating this vulnerable target group. Methods: A detailed systematic literature review on pre- and post-operative depressive, anxiety and eating disorder symptoms of adolescent patients was performed in PsychINFO, PubMed and Medline electronic databases. Results: Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria. Although strength of evidence was limited, results suggested that pre-operatively a third of adolescents suffered from moderate to severe depressive disorder symptoms and a quarter from anxiety disorder symptoms, while a substantial number showed eating disorder symptoms. Post-operatively, levels of depressive disorder symptoms significantly improved. Original articles on outcomes of eating and anxiety disorder symptoms after weight loss surgery were not found. Conclusions: Further attention is needed on consistent clinical assessment of mental health disturbances and their consecutive treatment in adolescents. Future research should also focus on psychological and psychosocial predictors of weight loss after bariatric surgery.

La douleur post-opératoire chez les patients constitue un défi thérapeutique important pour les cliniciens. Le traitement de la douleur post-opératoire n’est pas accessoire ni optionnel, puisqu’il permet de donner un congé de l’hôpital plus rapide aux patients et ainsi, il contribue à des économies importantes pour notre système de santé. Parmi les approches thérapeutiques utilisées pour la prise en charge de la douleur post-opératoire, cette thèse s’intéresse particulièrement aux blocs de nerfs périphériques par les anesthésiques locaux et à l’administration de la néostigmine par voie épidurale. Ces médicaments sont utilisés en clinique sans avoir préalablement établi, en se basant sur leur propriétés pharmacocinétiques et pharmacodynamiques spécifiques, leurs doses optimales. Ces doses devraient également tenir en considération les particularités anatomiques du site d’injection par rapport au site d’action. Cette thèse inclut des études exploratoires qui ont contribué à caractériser la pharmacocinétique de la ropivacaïne et de la bupivacaïne ainsi que la pharmacocinétique et la pharmacodynamie de la néostigmine. La première étude portait sur seize patients subissant une chirurgie orthopédique avec un bloc combiné des nerfs fémoral et sciatique par la ropivacaïne (n=8) ou la bupivacaïne (n=8). C’était la première étude qui a inclu des temps d’échantillons pharmacocinétiques allant jusqu’à 32 h après le bloc et ces résultats ont démontré une variabilité interindividuelle considérable. La modélisation par approche de population a aidé à expliquer les sources de la variabilité et démontré que l’absorption systémique des anesthésiques locaux était très lente. De plus, les concentrations plasmatiques demeuraient mesurables, et dans certains cas présentaient un plateau, 32 h après le bloc. Dans les prochaines études, un échantillonnage allant jusqu’à 4 ou 5 jours sera nécessaire afin d’atteindre la fin de l’absorption. La deuxième étude a établi le développement d’un modèle animal en étudiant la pharmacocinétique de la ropivacaïne après administration intraveineuse ainsi que son degré de liaison aux protéines plasmatiques chez le lapin (n=6). Les résultats ont démontré que, chez le lapin la ropivacaïne est beaucoup moins liée aux protéines plasmatiques comparativement à l’humain. Ce résultat important sera utile pour planifier les prochaines études précliniques. La troisième étude a exploré, pour la première fois, la pharmacocinétique et la pharmacodynamie de la néostigmine administrée par voie épidurale et a essayé de caractériser la courbe dose-réponse en utilisant trois doses différentes : 0.5, 1 et 1.5 mg. Bien que les concentrations de la néostigmine dans le liquide céphalo-rachidien fussent très variables une relation inverse entre la consommation de mépéridine et la dose de néostigmine a été démontrée. La dose de 1.5 mg a donné une meilleure réponse pharmacodynamique sur la douleur, mais elle a été considérée comme dangereuse puisqu’elle a résulté en deux cas d’hypertension. Nous avons conclu que des doses plus faibles que 1.5 mg devront être utilisées lors de l’utilisation de la néostigmine par voie épidurale. En conclusion, les études rapportées dans cette thèse ont exploré les propriétés pharmacocinétiques et/ou pharmacodynamiques de certains médicaments utilisés pour le traitement de la douleur post-opératoire. Ceci mènera au but ultime qui est la meilleure prise en charge de la douleur post-opératoire chez les patients. / Post-operative pain in surgical patients remains a challenging problem for the clinicians. The treatment of post-operative pain is no longer an accessory or nice to have, since it can significantly shorten hospital stays and lead to important savings for our health system. Amongst the therapeutic approaches used in the management of post-operative pain, we will focus on peripheral nerve blocks with local anesthetics and epidural neostigmine. These drugs are currently used in the clinic, without the prior characterization of an optimal dose that took into consideration their specific pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. Optimal doses will need to consider the specific regional anatomy of the site of drug administration with respect to the site of action. This thesis included exploratory studies that helped to characterize the pharmacokinetics of ropivacaine and bupivacaine as well as the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of neostigmine. The first study included sixteen patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries with a combined femoral and sciatic nerve blocks technique using ropivacaine (n=8) or bupivacaine (n=8). The study was the first to include pharmacokinetic sampling up to 32 h after the block and results have shown that large between subject variability was present. Population modeling helped to explain and separate the various sources of variability and showed that systemic absorption was very slow. In addition, plasma concentrations were still measurable, and in some cases, plateaued at 32 h after the block. Future studies should extend sampling times to 4 or 5 days after the block in order to wait for the completion of the absorption. The second study attempted to establish an animal model by studying the intravenous pharmacokinetics and protein binding of ropivacaine in the rabbit (n=6). Results have shown that ropivacaine is much less bound to plasma protein in rabbits as compared to humans. This important information will be useful in future preclinical and clinical research. The third study explored, for the first time, the pharmacokinetics and the pharmacodynamics of epidural neostigmine (n=15) and attempted to characterize the dose effect relationship by testing the following doses: 0.5, 1 and 1.5 mg. Although the CSF pharmacokinetics of neostigmine were variable, a relationship between dose and meperidine consumption could be shown. The dose of 1.5 mg resulted in a better pharmacodynamic response on pain but it was deemed unsafe since it led to hypertension in two patients. We conclude that doses below 1.5 mg should be used for an epidural block with neostigmine. In conclusion, this research work investigated the pharmacokinetic and/or the pharmacodynamic characteristics of some drugs used for the treatment of post-operative pain. The gathered information will be essential to be able to reliably characterize the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships. This will help in achieving the ultimate goal which is a better management of post operative pain in surgical patients.

Introduction :Les adhérences abdominales post-opératoires représentent les complications les plus fréquentes de la chirurgie abdominale et sont un enjeu de santé publique– douleurs abdominales chroniques, occlusions intestinales et infertilité féminine- et coût de prise en charge. Elles se développent après une mauvaise cicatrisation du péritoine –séreuse composée d’une monocouche de cellules mesothéliales. Leur prévention pourrait passer par des techniques de thérapie cellulaire ou tissulaire, visant à fabriquer un « néo »peritoine alliant des cellules du patient à une « scaffold » ou « échaffaudage ». Les cellules mesothéliales, différenciées, fonctionnelles sont indispensables, mais en nombre limité, potentiellement malades et leur prélèvement invasif. Elles pourraient être remplacées par des cellules souches adipocytaires qui ont un potentiel de différenciation. D’autre part, les polymères d’hydrogels comme biomatériau pour notre substitut sont attractifs par leur tolérance et leurs propriétés de ressemblance à la matrice extra cellulaire native.Les étapes majeures de notre projet de médecine régénérative sont de comparer la thérapie cellulaire à la thérapie tissulaire utilisant une « scaffold », de comparer les deux cellules sources potentielles, d’étudier les qualités de l’hydrogel BD-Purastat® et enfin de transplanter notre substitut cellularisé dans un modèle préétabli d'adhérences chez le rat.Matériel et méthode :La première étape validait le modèle animal d’adhérences post opératoires comparant plusieurs dommages péritonéaux. Puis les cellules étaient comparées en terme d'isolement, de culture, de caractérisation et de différenciation. Une étude de preuve de concept était réalisée afin de comparer les techniques de thérapie cellulaire aux techniques de thérapie tissulaire avec la greffe de péritoine lui-même. Ensuite, BD-Purastat® était testé grâce à une collaboration avec le laboratoire 3D Matrix. Enfin l’implantation in vivo d’une plaque d’hydrogel chargée de cellules autologues était évaluée sur le modèle de rat mis au point.Résultats :Deux modèles d'adhérences post-opératoires étaient validés chez le rat. Les deux techniques étaient efficaces et pertinentes pour l'application clinique. Les cellules mésothéliales présentaient un aspect typique polygonal avec des bords brillants et exprimaient les marqueurs intra-cellulaires de la vimentine et des cytokeratines. Elles présentaient une sénescence précoce comme attendu pour des cellules adultes bien différenciées. Les cellules souches adipocytaires étaient allongées et fines, stellaires, avec une bonne capacité d'expansion, se différenciaient en ostéocytes et en adipocyte et formaient des colonies comme attendu pour des cellules souches. L'étude de preuve de concept a permis de montrer que les cellules mésothéliales contribuaient à la repéritonéalisation seulement si elles étaient bien orientées et transplantées au sein d’un tissu. Ainsi, l’ajout d'une « scaffold » était crucial. Concernant le choix des biomatériaux, BD-Purastat® présentait de bonnes propriétés mécaniques, de biocompatibilité et implanté seul permettait déjà une réduction des adhérences postopératoires. L'implantation du substitut cellularisé n'avait pas permis d’améliorer les résultats obtenus avec le gel seul.Conclusion et perspectives :Notre étude permettait de montrer que des cellules mésothéliales au sein d'une « scaffold » étaient la clé du succès de la repéritonéalisation pour la prévention des adhérences postopératoires en charge abdominale. La différenciation des cellules souches adipocytaires vers le phénotype mésothélial avait encore besoin d'être prouvée. BD-Purastat® diminuait l’étendue des adhérence postopératoires. Le comportement des cellules dans cette « scaffold » nécessitait d'être étudié pour pouvoir obtenir l'efficacité clinique du substitut péritonéal de cellules autologues et d'hydrogel. / Introduction: Postoperative abdominal adhesions are a major complication leading to medical and economical problems. Replace injured peritoneum, which is composed of a monolayer of mesothelial cells (MC), using cell-therapy or cell-laden scaffold are two promising strategies to prevent adhesions. MC as functional and differentiated cells are crucial. However, adipose stem cells (ASCs) could replace MCs thanks to their potential of differentiation. Furthermore, hydrogel polymers are attractive scaffolds mimicking the properties of the native ECM. So, milestones of our project of regenerative medicine are comparison of cell-laden scaffolds and cell-therapy, choice of cell source and biomaterial, and finally transplantation of the cell-laden hydrogel scaffold, in a pre-established rat model of adhesion.Materiel and Method: Firstly, models of adhesion were compared usingdifferent peritoneal injuries. Then, MCs and ASCs were compared for isolation, culture, characterization, and differentiation. Nextly, cell-therapy using MC intra peritoneal injection (IP) or cell-sheet technology was compared with tissue-therapy using peritoneal grafts through a proof of concept study. BD-Purastat® hydrogel was tested in collaboration with 3D Matrix firm. Cell-laden hydrogel gels were implanted and assessed on adhesion prevention.Results: Two animal models of adhesion were validated and both techniques were effective and clinically relevant. MCs and ASCs were isolated from respectively tunica vaginalis and subcutaneous inguinal fat pad. MCs, with typical cobble-stone morphology and bright edges, were positively stained for vimentin and cytokeratin. Senescence arrived after only three passages for these adult well-differentiated cells. Spindle-shaped ASCs had a good capacity of expansion, were able to differentiate in osteocytes and adipocytes, and to form colonies as expected for stem cells. Autologuous peritoneal grafts prevented postoperative abdominal adhesions in the rat model. As the mechanism of this prevention, the MC survived and contributed to reperitonealization, only when they were transplanted as a part of the autologous peritoneal grafts and were located on the surface exposed to the abdomen. Cell sheet technology and MCs IP injection failed in the adhesion prevention. BD-Purastat® presented good mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Alone, it reduced significantly adhesion extent. But, cell encapsulation into BD-Purastat® did not improve this prevention.Conclusion and perspectives: Our study supported that MCs and scaffold are both needed to succeed in peritoneum’s engineering to prevent adhesion. ASCs differentiation into MCs phenotype has still to be shown. BD- Purastat® decreases adhesion extent and behavior of the cell into this scaffold needs to be studied to improve the effectiveness of the cell-laden hydrogel application.

O controle da dor pós-operatória é um assunto de grande interesse, visto que a dor interfere na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. O uso de anestésicos locais de longa duração pode diminuir esse sintoma. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a eficácia clínica da complementação trans-cirúrgica da bupivacaína no controle da dor pós-operatória em pacientes submetidos à extração de terceiros molares inferiores. Através deste ensaio clínico controlado por placebo, foram realizadas 80 cirurgias em terceiros molares mandibulares bilaterais e simétricos (classificação 2B de Pell & Gregory) em 40 pacientes saudáveis. Em um dos lados operados, foi realizado o bloqueio anestésico pré-operatório de modo randomizado e duplo-cego com bupivacaína a 0,5% associado a epinefrina 1:200.000 (Neocaína®). Ao término do procedimento cirúrgico, foi realizada complementação anestésica com o mesmo anestésico (grupo experimental ou teste). Do lado oposto (grupo controle), o procedimento foi idêntico ao realizado no grupo experimental, mas complementado por placebo (soro fisiológico) através do método da boca dividida. Durante o período pós-operatório de 72 horas foram avaliadas a dor e o consumo de analgésicos, sendo que a dor foi considerada a variável primária do estudo. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante (p> 0,05) para nenhum dos parâmetros avaliados e entre os pacientes operados. Portanto a complementação trans-cirúrgica da bupivacaína no controle da dor pós-operatória não apresentou diferença estatisticamente significante quando comparada ao uso da bupivacaína complementada por placebo / The postoperative pain control is a subject of great interest since pain interferes in the quality of life of patients. The use of long-term local anesthetics, may reduce this symptom. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of bupivacaine complementation in controlling postoperative pain in patients undergoing third molars surgeries. Through this placebo-controlled clinical trial were performed 80 bilateral symmetrical mandibular third molar surgeries (2B classification of Pell & Gregory) in 40 healthy patients. In one side of jaw, the anesthetic blockade was performed preoperatively period in a randomized and double-blind manner with 0.5% bupivacaine with 1:200.000 epinephrine (Neocaína ®). At the end of surgery, a complementary dose was performed with the same anesthetic (experimental group or test). On the opposite side (control group), the procedure was similar to performed in the experimental group but complemented by placebo (saline) through the method of split mouth. Pain and analgesic consumption were assessed for 72 hours of postoperative period, and the pain was considered the primary outcome variable of the study. There was no statistically significant difference (p> 0.05) for evaluated parameters and between patients. Therefore the trans-complementation of bupivacaine in surgical control of postoperative pain not statistically significant when compared to bupivacaine complemented by placebo.

Orientador: Daniele Cristina Cataneo / Resumo: Introdução: A obesidade é o acúmulo de gordura anormal ou excessiva que representa um risco potencial à saúde. A cirurgia bariátrica consiste em uma alternativa de tratamento cirúrgico da obesidade mórbida, permitindo uma perda de peso expressiva e duradoura com consequente melhoria das comorbidades associadas. A obesidade está associada a alterações da mecânica ventilatória e constitui um fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de complicações pulmonares no pós-operatório de cirurgias abdominais. Objetivo: Verificar se os testes de função respiratória, de força muscular respiratória e de exercícios são capazes de predizer complicações no pós-operatório em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica. Método: Foram avaliados 174 pacientes (81% mulheres) submetidos à cirurgia bariátrica, no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu. Todos os pacientes foram submetidos à medidas antropométricas, testes de espirometria, medida de pico de fluxo expiratório, manovacuometria, teste de caminhada de seis minutos e teste de escada. Os dados foram colhidos no período pré-operatório e correlacionados com as complicações pós-operatórias, incluindo as complicações cardiopulmonares e cirúrgicas.

The bariatric surgery consists of an alternative for surgical treatment of morbid obesity, thus allowing significant and lasting weight loss with consequent improvement of the related comorbidities. Obesity is associated with the changes in the ventilatory mechanics and poses a risk factor for the development of pulmonary complications in the post-operative period of abdominal surgeries. Objective: Check whether the respiratory function tests, the respiratory muscle strength and the exercises are able to foresee post-operative complications in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Methodo: 174 patients (81% women) undergoing bariatric surgery were evaluated at the Clinical Hospital of the Botucatu School of Medicine. All the patients were submitted to anthropometric measures, spyrometry tests, the measurement of peak expiratory flow, manovacuometry, a 6-minute walking test and stair-climbing test. The data were collected in the pre-operative and correlated with the post-operative complications, including both the cardiopulmonary and surgical complications. Results: The average age was 41,59 ± 10,70 years. The BMI (Body Mass Index) varied from 35,44 to 62,79 kg/m2 with an average of 46,74 ± 6,35 kg/m2. The most prevalent comorbidities were: systemic arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and hypothyroidism. The post-operative complication rate was a...

Estima-se que mais de 800.000 cirurgias cardíacas de revascularização do miocárdio por ano são realizadas no mundo. Nesta intervenção terapêutica uma das complicações mais comuns é a fibrilação atrial, que esta intimamente relacionada com aumento de risco de morbidade e mortalidade pós-operatória. Os fatores determinantes desta manifestação podem ser pré, intra e pós-operatórios que possivelmente se relaciona com as proteínas pró-inflamatórias, canais iônicos e sistema renina-angiotensina. Portanto, os polimorfismos nos genes que codificam essas proteínas podem ter importante papel no desenvolvimento da FAPo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi de avaliar a associação entre os polimorfismos dos genes IL6 (G-174C), KCNE5 (C97T) e AGT (A-217G) e a incidência da FAPo e seus efeitos na expressão de RNAm, em apêndice atrial direito e em sangue periférico. Para o estudo foram selecionados 76 indivíduos portadores de insuficiência coronariana obstrutiva com indicação de intervenção cirúrgica de revascularização do miocárdio. Desses, 16 com FAPo, 52 sem FAPo e 8 pacientes foram excluídos por motivo de óbito. Amostras de sangue periférico foram obtidas para análise de parâmetros bioquímicos e para extração de DNA genômico e RNA total, antes e 48 horas após a cirurgia cardíaca. Os polimorfismos de nucleotídeo único (SNP) dos genes da IL-6, KCNE5 e do AGT foram detectados pela PCR-RFLP e confirmados por sequenciamento de DNA. A expressão de RNAm em leucócitos totais de sangue periférico e de tecido foi analisada pela PCR em tempo real, utilizando o gene GAPDH como referência endógena. A freqüência do alelo -174G foi de 75 % no GFA e 69,2% no GC e não foi associada ao desenvolvimento de FAPo. A freqüência do alelo 97T foi de 0% no GFA e 10,8% no GC e não foi associada a menor incidência de FAPo. A freqüência do alelo -217A foi de 12,5% no GFA e 15,9% no GC e também não foi associado ao desenvolvimento de FAPo. A expressão de RNAm da IL-6 em LTSP foi reduzida do pré para o pós-operatório de cirurgia de RM em ambos os grupos e não houve correlação entre a expressão de RNAm da IL-6 em LTSP e apêndice auricular direito. A expressão de RNAm do KCNE5 em LTSP foi reduzida do pré para o pós-operatório de cirurgia de RM, exceto em indivíduos do gênero masculino do GC, sugerindo a influência do gênero na expressão desse gene. Não houve correlação entre a expressão de RNAm do KCNE5 em LTSP e apêndice auricular direito. Não se detectou expressão de RNAm do AGT em LTSP e sua expressão em apêndice auricular direito foi extremamente baixa, portanto não está associada ao desenvolvimento de FAPo. / It is estimated that more than 800,000 heart surgery coronary artery bypass grafting are performed annually in the world. This therapeutic intervention of the most common complication was atrial fibrillation, which is closely related to increased risk of morbidity and postoperative mortality. The determining factors of this event can be pre, intra and postoperative possibly relates to the pro-inflammatory proteins, ion channels and renin-angiotensin system. Therefore, polymorphisms in the genes encoding these proteins may play an important role in the development of PoAF. The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between polymorphisms of IL6 gene (G-174C), KCNE5 (C97T) and AGT (A-217G) and the incidence of PoAF and its effects on mRNA expression in right atrial appendage and peripheral blood. For the study we selected 76 individuals with obstructive coronary artery disease with indication for surgical myocardial revascularization. Of these, 16 with PoAF, 52 without PoAF and 8 patients were excluded because of death. Blood samples were obtained for biochemical analysis and extraction of genomic DNA and total RNA before and 48 hours after cardiac surgery. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL-6, KCNE5 and AGT were detected by PCR-RFLP and confirmed by DNA sequencing. mRNA expression in total leukocytes in peripheral blood and tissue were analyzed by real-time PCR, using GAPDH gene as endogenous reference. The frequency of-174G allele was 75% in the GFA and 69.2% in GC and was not associated with the development of FAPO. The 97T allele frequency was 0% in GFA and 10.8% in GC and was not associated with a lower incidence of PoAF. The frequency of allele-217A was 12.5% in the GFA and 15.9% in GC and was not associated with the development of PoAF. The mRNA expression of IL-6 on LTSP was reduced from preoperative to the postoperative period of CABG in both groups and no correlation between mRNA expression of IL-6 on LTSP and right atrial appendage. The mRNA expression of KCNE5 LTSP was reduced in the pre and postoperative CABG, except among males in the CG, suggesting the influence of gender on expression of this gene. There was no correlation between the expression of mRNA KCNE5 in LTSP and right auricular appendage. There was no mRNA expression of AGT in LTSP and its expression in right atrial appendage was extremely low, so it is associated with the development of PoFA.

Introdução: a analgesia multimodal é amplamente usada para o controle da dor perioperatória em um esforço para reduzir o uso de opioides. A duloxetina é um inibidor seletivo da recaptação da serotonina e noradrenalina com eficácia para estados de dor crônica. O objetivo principal deste estudo foi avaliar a eficácia de duas doses orais de 60 mg de duloxetina em termos de consumo de fentanil durante o período pós-operatório em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia eletiva de artrodese de coluna lombar. Método: este estudo foi um ensaio clínico prospectivo, duplo encoberto, aleatório e controlado com placebo. Os pacientes receberam 60 mg de duloxetina ou placebo idêntico uma hora antes da cirurgia e 24 horas depois. Os sujeitos do estudo foram divididos em dois grupos: grupo C (controle) de indivíduos que receberam o placebo; e grupo D (duloxetina) de indivíduos que receberam 60 mg de duloxetina. O consumo total de fentanil administrado pelo próprio paciente em 24 e 48 horas após a cirurgia foi mensurado. Os desfechos secundários foram os escores de dor e a presença ou ausência de efeitos adversos, tais como cefaleia, náuseas, vômitos, prurido, tonturas e sonolência. Resultados: as características demográficas não diferiram entre os grupos. Houve uma diferença significativa no consumo de fentanil nas primeiras 24 horas entre os grupos C e D (diferença média, 223,11 ± 39,32 ?g; p < 0,001). O consumo de fentanil também diferiu entre os grupos C e D após 48 horas (diferença média, 179,35 ± 32,55 ug; p < 0,00). Os escores de dor em mais de 48 horas não diferiram significativamente entre os grupos. A incidência de efeitos colaterais foi semelhante nos dois grupos. Conclusão: a duloxetina foi associada à redução do consumo de fentanil no pós-operatório de cirurgias sobre a coluna lombar, portanto, sendo eficaz como adjuvante para a analgesia pós-operatória e redução do consumo de opioides / Background: Multimodal analgesia is widely advocated for the control of perioperative pain in an effort to reduce the use of opioids. Duloxetine is a selective serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor with efficacy for chronic pain states. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of two oral doses of 60 mg duloxetine in terms of fentanyl submitted to elective lumbar spine arthrodesis surgery. Method: This study was prospective, double blind, randomized, and placebo controlled clinical trial. Patients received duloxetine 60 mg or identical placebo one hour before surgery and 24 hours later. The study subjects were divided into two groups: group C (control) of subjects who received placebo; and group D (duloxetine) from subjects received 60 mg. The total fentanyl consumption by the patient himself at 24 and 48 hours after surgery was measured. Secondary outcomes were pain scores and the presence or absence of adverse effects such as headache, nausea, vomiting, pruritus, dizziness and drowsiness. Results: Demographic characteristics did not differ between groups. There was a significant difference in fentanyl consumption in the first 24 hours between groups C and D (mean difference, 223.11 ± 39.32 ?g; p < 0.001). Fentanyl consumption also differed between groups C and D after 48 hours (mean difference, 179.35 ± 32.55 ?g; p < 0.00). Pain scores in more than 48 hours did not differ significantly between groups. The incidence of side effects was similar in both groups. Conclusion: Duloxetine was associated with reduction of fentanyl consumption in the postoperative period of surgeries on the lumbar spine, therefore, it was effective as adjuvant for postoperative analgesia and reduction of opioid consumption

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The incidence of post-operative pulmonary complications is large, in consequence of the manipulation of abdominal cavity with changes on pulmonary volumes and capacities, resulting in atelectasis and hypoxemy. Alteration of breath pattern in association with postoperative pain can interfere in gaseous exchanges with larger repercussions in the presence of risk factors. Respiratory rate and arterial blood gases have an important role on the assessment of lung function, specifically on pulmonary ventilation and gaseous exchanges, monitoring carbonic gas arterial pressure and oxygen arterial pressure. The objectives of this research were: analyze the influence of respiratory rate on arterial blood gases at immediate postoperative of exploratory laparotomy for trauma, observe arterial gases concentrations, respiratory rate and oxygenation index in the first three post-operative days. Moreover, analyze if there is a correlation between respiratory rate on arterial gases, and carbonic gas arterial pressure on oxygen arterial pressure in the first three post-operative days. It was a non-experimental cohort study of analytic and descriptive character from April to September 2005 at Governador João Alves Filho Hospital, in Aracaju, during the first three postoperative days. 55 patients of both gender with ages between 18 to 62 were assessed, submitted to exploratory laparotomy for trauma in urgent character. As criteria for inclusion, there were urgency surgical procedures, with xipho-pubic incision, general anesthesia with time larger or equal to 120 minutes, where the respiratory rate and arterial blood collected were measured according to American Association for Respiratory Care guidelines to assess arterial blood gases partial pressures. After collecting the blood the PaCO2 and PaO2 values were achieved and calculated the oxygenation index through PaO2/FiO2 formula. The data were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 software through median, and standard deviation, ANOVA test to analyze the variation between the average median, Tukey test to analyze the difference between significant median and simple linear correlation to observe the behavior of tendencies among the variables, all in significance level of 95% or p<0,05. the study was approved by Ethics Committees of Human Search of Federal University of Sergipe. The outcomes showed median for respiratory rate from 27,49 ±5,31 bpm (24 h), 25,35 ± 5,32 bpm (48 h), 24,15 ± 3,94 bpm (72 h). For PaCO2 median of 32,84 ± 4,49 mmHg (24 h), 33,65 ± 3,36 mmHg (48 h), 34,04 ± 3,73 mmHg (72 h). For PaO2 median of 85,29 ± 18,30 mmHg (24 h), 87,53 ± 17,56 mmHg (48 h), 89,31 ± 16,57 mmHg (72 h). The analysis of median in the first three post-operative days by ANOVA presented statistic significance only for respiratory rate (p<0,05), while for PaCO2 and PaO2 presented p>0,05. Comparing the variables, it was observed correlation between RR x PaCO2 regular in 24 h (r= - 0,42604), weak in 48 and 72 h (r= - 0,23857 and -0,02807), between RR x PaO2 weak correlations at 24, 48 and 72 h (r= 0,02339, 0,02305 and -0,0505). This was, our survey concludes that RR presented a significant variance at the three post-operative days and a significant correlation of RR and PaCO2 / A incidência de complicação pulmonar pós-operatória é grande, decorrente da manipulação da cavidade abdominal com modificação dos volumes e capacidades pulmonares e resultando em hipoxemia e atelectasia. Alteração do padrão respiratório juntamente com a dor no pósoperatório podem interferir nas trocas gasosas com maiores repercussões na presença de fatores de risco. A freqüência respiratória e a gasometria arterial têm papel importante na avaliação da função pulmonar, especificamente na ventilação pulmonar e nas trocas gasosas, monitorando a pressão arterial de gás carbônico e a pressão arterial de oxigênio. Foram objetivos da pesquisa: analisar a influência da freqüência respiratória sobre os gases sanguíneos arteriais no pós-operatório imediato de laparotomia exploradora por trauma, observar as concentrações dos gases arteriais, a freqüência respiratória e o índice de oxigenação nos três primeiros dias de pós-operatório, avaliar se existe correlação da freqüência respiratória sobe os gases arteriais e da pressão arterial de gás carbônico sobre a pressão arterial de oxigênio nos três primeiros dias de pós-operatório. Esta foi uma pesquisa de campo com delineamento não-experimental do tipo coorte transversal e de caráter analítico e descritivo realizada no período de abril a setembro de 2005 no Hospital Governador João Alves Filho, na cidade de Aracaju, durante os três primeiros dias de pós-operatório. Foram avaliados 55 pacientes com idade de 18 a 62 anos de ambos os sexos, submetidos a laparotomia exploradora por trauma abdominal em caráter de urgência. Foram utilizados critérios para inclusão o procedimento cirúrgico de urgência, com incisão xifo-púbica, anestesia geral com tempo maior ou igual a 120 minutos, onde foi mensurado a freqüência respiratória e coletado sangue arterial segundo protocolo da American Association for Respiratory Care para análise das pressões parciais dos gases sanguíneos arteriais. Após a coleta de sangue foram obtidos os valores de PaCO2 e PaO2 e calculado o índice de oxigenação através da fórmula PaO2/FiO2. Os dados obtidos foram analisados pelo software SPSS 10.0 através de média e desvio-padrão, teste ANOVA para análise de variância entre as médias, teste Tukey para análise da diferença entre as médias significantes e a Correlação Linear Simples para observar os comportamentos de tendências entre as variáveis, todos utilizados para nível de significância de 95% ou p<0,05. A pesquisa foi aprovada pelo comitê de ética em pesquisa em seres humanos da Universidade Federal de Sergipe. Os resultados apresentaram média para a frequência respiratória de 27,49 ± 5,31 irpm (24hs), 25,35 ± 5,32 irpm (48hs), 24,15 ± 3,94 irpm (72hs), para a PaCO2 médias de 32,84 ± 4,49 mmHg (24hs), 33,65 ± 3,36 mmHg (48hs), 34,04 ± 3,73 mmHg (72hs), para a PaO2 médias de 85,29 ± 18,30 mmHg (24hs), 87,53 ± 17,56 mmHg (48hs), 89,31 ± 16,57 (72hs). A análise das médias nos três primeiros dias pelo ANOVA apresentou significância estatística apenas para a frequência respiratória (p<0,05), enquanto para a PaCO2 e PaO2 apresentaram p>0,05. Comparando-se as variáveis observamos correlação entre a FR x PaCO2 regular nas 24hs (r = -0,42604), fraca nas 48 e 72 hs (r = -0,23857 e 0,02807), entre a FR x PaO2 fraca nas 24 hs (r = -0,28128) e regular nas 48 (r= -0,32166) e fraco nas 72 hs (r= 0,28597), entre PaCO2 x PaO2 correlações fracas nas 24,48 e 72hs (r = 0, 023339, 0,2305 e 0,0505). Concluímos em nossa pesquisa que a FR apresentou variação significativa nos três dias de pós-operatório e uma correlação significativa da FR e PaCO2 no 1º dia de pós-operatório e da FR e PaO2 nos três primeiros dias de pós-operatório.

O proposito deste estudo e avaliar o impacto psicologico da vivencia hospitalar de individuos que sofrem complicacoes pos-operatoria, partindo do pressuposto de que a intercorrencia agrava o quadro clinico com repercussoes na esfera psiquica destes pacientes. Teoricamente enfoca a evolucao do conceito de trauma na teoria freudiana, partindo do desamparo primordial (hilflosigkeit) ate a nova concepcao de angustia, levando em consideracao o fator economico, a nocao de a posteriori (nachträglichkeit) e a compulsao a repeticao. Com o intuito de ampliar a compreensao do fenomeno, o estudo percorre a etiologia do trauma para outros teoricos: Sandor Ferenczi, sobre o narcisismo da doenca; Donald W. Winnicott, que correlaciona o trauma a vivencia do fracasso do ambiente, a imprevisibilidade, ao excesso de tempo de exposicao a situacao desorganizadora, e a elevacao do nivel de dependencia. A constancia desta situacao leva ao que Maksud Khan nomeou de trauma cumulativo. A hipotese e a de que esta experiencia hospitalar pode promover um trauma psiquico, na medida em que o individuo se ve diante de uma situacao imprevisivel, que pode lhe causar transbordamento emocional pelo estado de desamparo, impotencia e risco da perda de sua integridade fisica -, que inibe uma elaboracao psiquica. Apos a alta hospitalar tais fatores podem, ainda, desencadear efeitos pos-traumaticos, acarretando-lhe, assim, uma dificuldade adaptativa. Para Moty Benyakar isto significa que o evento disruptivo pode promover um vivenciar traumatico dado a magnitude do impacto no psiquismo. Metodologicamente, para melhor compreensao do processo psiquico, faz-se um estudo longitudinal, de seis sujeitos, iniciando enquanto estes se encontram hospitalizados (situacao potencialmente traumatica), tres e seis meses apos a alta hospitalar. Na aplicacao do metodo qualitativo o estudo baseia-se na coleta de dados com entrevistas e na aplicacao reduzida da tecnica projetiva do TAT (Thematic Apperception Test). Pelo metodo quantitativo os pacientes sao submetidos a aplicacao da escala de avaliacao do transtorno de estresse pos-traumatico (CAPS Clinician Administred PTDS Scale). Esta pesquisa foi realizada em Hospital Escola de Universidade Publica, apos a aprovacao do Comite de Etica desta instituicao e do Comite de Etica para Seres Humanos do Instituto de Psicologia da Universidade de Sao Paulo. Atraves dos resultados obtidos na pesquisa pode-se constatar que ha uma relacao direta entre o evento e os seus efeitos no psiquismo. Pelo proprio carater disruptivo da instituicao hospitalar, dos encargos dos problemas de saude e do entorno (familiar, socioeconomico) o individuo vivencia uma vulnerabilidade fisica e psiquica. Contudo constatou-se que a dimensao da repercussao psiquica esta diretamente associada ao quadro clinico dos pesquisados, e ao tempo que ficam expostos a situacao potencialmente traumatica. Sendo este um fator fundamental na incidencia dos sintomas do Transtorno de Estresse Pos-traumatico. Com base neste estudo psicologico das complicacoes pos-operatorias, espera-se possibilitar aos profissionais de saude um novo olhar ao promover sua conscientizacao sobre problemas advindos desta experiencia, nao so aos individuos como, tambem, aos familiares, levantando a possibilidade de, se necessario, recorrerem a uma assistencia psicologica e/ou psiquiatrica / The objective of this study is to assess the psychological impact in subjects who stay in hospital after suffering from post-operative complications, on the assumption that the clinical picture gets worse causing troubles in the psychic area of these patients. Theoretically it focuses the evolution of the concept of trauma according to Freudian theory, since the primordial abandonment (hilflosigkeit) up to the new concept of distress, considering the economical situation, the concept of a posteriori (nachtraglichkeit) and the repetition compulsion. Aiming to offer a deeper understanding of the phenomenon, the study works with the etiology of trauma by other theorists: Sandor Ferenczi, about the narcissism of the disorder; Donald W. Winnicott, who relates the trauma to the experience of the environment failure, the unpredictability, the length of time facing a disordering situation, and the raising in dependence level. The constancy of this situation leads to what Maksud Khan called as cumulative trauma. The hypothesis is that in-hospital experience might provide a psychic trauma in so far as the subject has faced an unpredictable situation that might cause an overflow of emotions feeling abandoned, powerless and at the risk of losing physical integrity -, inhibiting a psychic elaboration. After having been discharged from hospital, such factors might also trigger post traumatic effects, implying into an adapting difficulty. According to Moty Benyakar, the disruptive event might provide a traumatic experience due to the great impact in the psychism. Methodologically for a better understanding of the psychic process, a longitudinal study has been made, with a number x of subjects, starting while they are in hospital (a potentially traumatic situation), from three to six months after they had been discharged from hospital. Applying the qualitative method the study has been based on the data collected through interviews and in the reduced application of the projective technique of TAT ( Thematic Apperception Test). Through the quantitative method the patients have been submitted to the application of the evaluation scale on the post-traumatic stress disorder (CAPS - Clinician Administered PTDS Scale). This research was carried out at the Hospital Escola da Universidade Publica, after the approval of the Comite de Etica ( Ethics Committee) of this institution and the Comite de Etica para Seres Humanos ( Ethics Committee for Human Beings) of the Instituto de Psicologia (Psychology Institute) of Universidade de Sao Paulo (USP). Through the results provided by the research, it was observed that there is a direct relation between the event and the effects in the psychism. For the own disruptive aspect in hospital, the burdens of health disorders and other surroundings ( familiar, socio- economic problems), the subject lives in a physical and psychic vulnerability. However it was pointed out that the dimension of the psychic repercussion is directly linked to the clinical picture of the six subjects who are studied, and the length of time that they have been exposed to the potentially traumatic situation. And this factor is extremely important in the incidence of the symptoms of the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This psychological study of the post- traumatic surgery complications is meant to bring to health professionals much more awareness about the problems that come after this experience, not only for the subjects as well as to the relatives, who should be allowed to require, whenever necessary, some psychological and/or psychiatric treatment

Le cholangiocarcinome (CC) est une tumeur maligne au pronostic péjoratif dont le traitement repose sur la résection chirurgicale. Il représente 3 % de l’ensemble des cancers digestifs et il est la deuxième tumeur primitive du foie, en fréquence, derrière le carcinome hépatocellulaire. L’âge moyen est de 70 ans avec une prédominance masculine. On distingue actuellement les cholangiocarcinomes intra et extra-hépatiques. La survie est inférieure à 5% à 5 ans tous stades confondues. 60 à 70 % sont des tumeurs de la convergence des canaux biliaires appelées également tumeurs de Klatskin.Le but de ce travail était de répondre aux interrogations persistantes concernant le cholangiocarcinome péri-hilaire (CCPH) en appliquant différentes méthodes statistiques sur différentes bases de données et revue de la littérature.Les trois axes principaux de ce travail s’articulent selon la temporalité de prise en charge, du diagnostic aux suites post-opératoires en passant par la mise en condition préopératoire.Le premier axe repose sur une base de données locale (registre de cancer digestif du Calvados). Les résultats montrent que le CCPH constitue seulement un tiers des cholangiocarcinomes dans la population générale, que son taux d’incidence est stable avec néanmoins une diminution d’incidence, bien que non-significative, chez les femmes ayant un CCPH et que le sexe féminin est un facteur pronostic négatif pour la survie à 5 ans. Le deuxième axe concernait la prise en charge préopératoire des patients, notamment l’optimisation préopératoire du foie restant par le drainage biliaire. Ce travail repose sur deux méta-analyses. Il a permis de mettre en évidence la supériorité de la voie radiologique sur la voie endoscopique concernant les complications liées à la procédure mais en revanche, l’absence de différence significative sur la morbi-mortalité post-résection hépatique, la survie à 5 ans, la survie sans récidive et le taux de dissémination liée à la procédure quand les procédures sont étudiées en intention de traiter. Nos résultats suggèrent qu’un mauvais choix de voie d’abord pour réaliser le drainage biliaire conduit à des échecs répétés qui influencent la récidive tumorale et donc la survie. Le troisième axe s’intéressait aux facteurs pronostiques de morbi-mortalité immédiates post-résection hépatique à partir d’une base de données Européenne (base de l’association Française de chirurgie). Les résultats montrent que la surface corporelle ≥ 1.82 m², l’hyperbilirubinémie > 50 µmol/l et la résection hépatique droite sont des facteurs prédictifs indépendants influençant la mortalité post-opératoire à 30 jours. / Cholangiocarcinoma (CC) is a malignant tumor with a poor prognosis. Its treatment is based on surgical resection. It accounts for 3% of all digestive cancers and is the second primary tumor of the liver, in frequency, after hepatocellular carcinoma. The average age is 70 years old with male predominance. At present intra and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas are distinguished. Survival rate is less than 5% at 5 years in all stages. 60 to 70% are tumors of the biliary convergence also called Klatskin tumors.The aim of this work was to answer persistent questions about peri-hilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHCC) by applying different statistical methods on different databases and review of the literature.The three main axes of this work are articulated according to the temporality of management, from the diagnosis to the postoperative follow-up, going through the preoperative setting.The first axis is based on a local database (registry of digestive cancer of Calvados). The results show that PHCC accounts for only one third of cholangiocarcinomas in the general population, that its incidence rate is stable with a decrease in incidence, although not significant, in women having PHCC and that female gender is a negative prognostic factor for 5-year survival. The second axis concerned the preoperative management of patients, including preoperative optimization of the remaining liver by biliary drainage. This work is based on two Meta-analyzes. It made it possible to highlight the superiority of the radiological way in the endoscopic way concerning the complications related to the procedure but on the other hand, the absence of significant difference on the morbi-mortality post hepatic resection, the survival at 5 years, the recurrence free survival and the rate of dissemination related to the procedure when the procedures are studied in intent to treat. Our results suggest that a poor choice of pathway for achieving biliary drainage leads to repeated failures that influence tumor recurrence and thus survival. The third axis was concerned with the prognostic factors of immediate morbidity and mortality after hepatic resection from a European database (base of the French association of surgery). The results show that body surface area ≥ 1.82 m², hyperbilirubinemia > 50 μmol / l and right hepatic resection are independent predictors influencing post-operative mortality at 30 days.
