Аннотация:Objective
Perioperative risk assessment and stratification before craniotomy is necessary to identify and optimize modifiable risk factors. Due to the high costs of diagnostic testing and concerns for delaying surgery, some have questioned whether and when surgery delays are warranted and supported by the current body of literature. The objective of this scoping review was to evaluate the available evidence on the prognostic value of preoperative risk assessment before anesthesia for elective craniotomy.
Methods
In this scoping review, we reviewed 156 papers that assess preoperative risk assessment before elective craniotomy, of which 27 papers were included in the final analysis.
Results
There is little high-quality evidence to suggest significant risk reduction when 4 common preexisting abnormalities are present: preoperative chronic aspirin therapy, cardiac arrhythmias, deep vein thrombosis, or hyperglycemia.
Conclusions
The risk of delaying craniotomy should ultimately be weighed against the perceived risks associated the patient's comorbid conditions and should be considered on an individualized basis.
