Slide 4-

Questions: What is the profile for systolic BP after thyroid surgery ? How many thyroidectomies have high BP and not bleed ? What factors* are associated with/ lead to high systolic BP ? Is there a “safe” level of post-thyroidectomy systolic BP ? * pain; nausea/vomiting; untreated HTN … What is it about MMH that leads to the higher risk of bleeding?

Regression Analysis Thyroid Size (weight) p = 0.0072 [OR 1.05 (per 10 gms)] 95% CI = 1.01 - 1.09 Highest post-op Systolic BP p = 0.016, [OR: 1.39 (per 10 mmHg)] 95% CI=1.09-1.76

Regression Analysis Thyroid Size (weight) p = 0.0072 [OR 1.05 (per 10 gms)] 95% CI = 1.01 - 1.09 Highest post-op Systolic BP p = 0.016, [OR: 1.39 (per 10 mmHg)] 95% CI=1.09-1.76 Statistical Issues Surgical Team: there is some statistical effect of surgical team - inclusion improves the fit for the statistical model Thyroid Weight: non-normal distribution skewed to larger thyroids weight loses significance when data log-transformed [OR: 1.44 (each doubling of weight) CI = 0.91-2.29] Campus (MMH/MSC): confounding between campus and surgical team

SUMMARY Post-thyroidectomy haematoma is a life-threatening risk, but the risk should be ~ 1% or less Post-Anaesthetic Systolic Blood pressure is associated with bleeding in CMDHB (but not necessarily causative) CMDHB is making some progress (esp in MSC) in reducing our risk Controlling systolic blood pressure may help reduce the risk of post-op haemorrhage

IMPLICATIONS FOR CMDHB Introduce SPC* methodology for Thyroid Surgery Agree BP management from time of booking surgery Agreement for post-op management protocols Methodology to capture process information Monitor at least 2 years … Include other DHBs ? *Statistical Process Control Sources of variation Campus BMI Systolic BP Ethnicity Surgical Team Gland Weight

Robert Liston (1794-1847) “… You could not cut the thyroid gland out of a living body in its sound condition without risking the death of the patient from hemorrhage…” Liston R “Lectures on the operations of surgery and on diseases and accidents requiring operations.” Lea and Blanchard, Philadelphia, 1846; pp 318-326. While Intra-operative Mortality risk has “disappeared”, Post-operative Haemorrhage remains life-threatening

Thyroid Weight: non-normal distribution skewed to larger thyroids weight loses significance when data log-transformed OR: 1.44 (each doubling of weight) CI = 0.91-2.29 Statistical Issue

Hospital/Surgeon Volume Vessel Management (Surgeon) Trendelenburg/ Valsalva (Surgeon) Surgical Drains (Surgeon) Nausea/ Vomiting control (Anaesthetist) NSAIDs/ pain relief (Anaesthetist) What factors can we influence to try to avoid post-operative Haematoma formation? Other (Patient/Disease); - BMI/ Gland size/ Medication/ etc
