Abstract
Background and Objective: neurosurgery reoperation that occurs for various reasons such as complications of primary surgery, planned reoperation, emergency or unplanned reoperation, and increase the financial burden of the hospital and the patient, poor prognosis, and increase the length of stay in hospital and intensive care unit for the patient. Neurosurgery patients are among the patients in whom reoperations need to be evaluated. Determining the factors leading to reoperations in the Neurosurgery Intensive Care Unit determines the causes and improves the quality of the system to prevent preventable reoperations.
Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional retrospective study, the information of patients undergoing reoperation including the type of disease and initial surgery, reasons for reoperation were identified. The frequency of each of the three variables was examined in pairs. All reoperations and returns to the operating room during 5 consecutive years were reviewed. Information of all patients including demographic information, underlying disease, smoking and alcohol, cause of primary and reoperation surgery, medical history, type of operation, complications of the surgery, postoperative care were examined.
Results: In this study, it was found that age, sex, initial diagnosis, the distance between surgery and readmission, underlying disease, ICU admission, were not associated with the occurrence of neurosurgery reoperation. Variables associated with the occurrence of neurosurgery reoperation include open surgery, surgical disease including Cerebrovascular, duration of the first surgery, first emergency surgery, duration of further anesthesia in the first operation, bleeding rate and need for a packed cell, Need to receive FFP, some hospital complications
Conclusion: Determining the factors that cause neurosurgery re-operation, prevent such surgeries if possible and reduce costs and hospital load, and also patients suffer fewer complications and mortality.
