ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect of perioperative supplemental oxygen administration on surgical site infection (SSI) in patients underwent abdominal surgery with general anesthesia. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 2,2015), CBM, VIP, WanFang Data and CNKI were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about perioperative supplemental oxygen administration versus normal FiO2 in patients underwent abdominal surgery with general anesthesia from inception to March, 2015. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 13 RCTs involving 3 532 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis indicated that: the incidence of SSI in the perioperative supplemental oxygen administration group was lower than that in the control group (OR=0.68, 95%CI 0.47 to 0.99, P=0.04). There were no significiant differences between both groups in incidence of atelectasis, incidence of infection requiring reoperation and 30-day mortality after surgery (all P values >0.05). ConclusionPerioperative supplemental oxygen administration could further decrease the risk of SSI in patients underwent abdominal surgery with general anesthesia, and does not increase the risk of other adverse events. Due to the limitations of quality of included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusions.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the analgesic efficacy of local infiltration analgesia versus femoral nerve block for total knee arthroplasty. MethodsDatabases including PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2016), WanFang Data, CBM, and CNKI were searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about the analgesic efficacy of local infiltration analgesia versus femoral nerve block for total knee arthroplasty from inception to April 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. The meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 13 RCTs involving 1 001 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: There were no significant differences in pain scores at rest (SMD=0.02, 95%CI -0.23 to 0.27, P=0.86), morphine consumption on movement (MD=-1.85, 95%CI -4.67 to 0.97, P=0.20), incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting (RD=0.02, 95%CI -0.03 to 0.08, P=0.41) and incidence of post-operative knee infection (RD=0.01, 95%CI -0.02 to 0.03, P=0.60) between the two groups, but he local infiltration analgesia group had lower length of stay than the femoral nerve block group with statistical difference (SMD=-0.24, 95%CI -0.41 to -0.07, P=0.005). ConclusionLocal infiltration analgesia provides similar postoperative analgesia after total knee arthroplasty to femoral nerve block. However, due to the limited quantity of the included studies, the above conclusion still need to be verified by more high quality studies.
