Abstract

Background: Patients with ovarian cancer often require intensive care unit (ICU) admission after surgery due to the complexity of the operation and the higher risk of complications. However, not all patients require a prolonged stay in the ICU. To identify factors that may predict extended stay in the ICU following surgery for ovarian cancer. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of patients who underwent surgery for ovarian cancer and were admitted to the ICU at a single tertiary hospital center between January 2004 and December 2023. Patient demographics, clinical characteristics, and perioperative variables were analyzed. Results: Of the 74 patients included, 36.5% had an ICU stay of at least 48 h. Factors associated with prolonged ICU stay included higher Body Mass Index (BMI) and time of surgery duration. In contrast, a greater body temperature at the end of the operation was linked to a decrease in the length of ICU stay. Conclusions: These findings provide valuable insights for preoperative counseling and resource allocation, enhancing postoperative care for ovarian cancer patients. Additional research is required to confirm these data and investigate any other factors that may predict extended stay in the ICU.

卵巢癌手术后延长重症监护病房使用的预测因素。

背景：由于卵巢癌手术的复杂性和较高的并发症风险，卵巢癌患者往往需要在术后入住重症监护病房（ICU）。然而，并不是所有的病人都需要在重症监护病房长时间住院。确定可能预测卵巢癌手术后ICU住院时间延长的因素。方法：回顾性分析2004年1月至2023年12月在某三级医院ICU接受卵巢癌手术的患者。分析患者人口统计学、临床特征和围手术期变量。结果：纳入的74例患者中，36.5%的患者ICU住院时间至少为48小时。与ICU住院时间延长相关的因素包括较高的体重指数（BMI）和手术时间。相比之下，手术结束时较高的体温与ICU住院时间的缩短有关。结论：本研究结果为卵巢癌患者术前咨询和资源配置，加强术后护理提供了有价值的见解。需要进一步的研究来证实这些数据，并调查可能预测ICU住院时间延长的任何其他因素。
