Item Morbidity After cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass and associated factors: A retrospective observational study(Cardiological Society of India, 2019-07) Patra, Chitralekha; Gatti, Prabhushankar Chamaiah; Panigrahi, AnsumanBackground The present study aimed to assess the morbidity after cardiac surgery and identify the preoperative and intraoperative factors associated with postoperative morbidity. Methods A retrospective observational study was conducted including 362 adult patients aged 18–75 years who underwent open-heart surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass at Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences and Research, Bengaluru, India, during the period from June 2016 to May 2017. Using a structured schedule, preoperative and intraoperative data were collected from the hospital's cardiac surgery database, whereas the postoperative data were collected from the intensive care unit (ICU) database and the hospital's clinical information system database. Results Of 362 patients, 254 (70.2%) had at least one major complication, and the most frequently occurring complication was low cardiac output state (29.8%). The ICU length of stay (LOS) was for > 2 days in 23.2% of patients, and the hospital LOS was for > 7 days in almost 60% of the patients. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that gender, type of surgery, body weight, blood lactate level at ICU admission, and 12-h blood lactate level were significant predictors of complications; gender and 24-h blood lactate level were significantly associated with the prolonged ICU LOS, whereas type of surgery and 24-h blood lactate level were significantly associated with prolonged hospital LOS. Conclusion The appropriate patient management strategy can be tailored based on the personal attributes, surgery type, and blood lactate level for individual patients undergoing cardiac surgery to reduce the likelihood of postoperative complications, ICU LOS, and hospital LOS.Item Nutritional anemia and its epidemiological correlates among women of reproductive age in an urban slum of Bhubaneswar, Orissa.(2011-10) Panigrahi, Ansuman; Sahoo, Prasun BikashThe present cross-sectional study involving 240 women of reproductive age as the study population was carried out in the beneficiary slum area, the field practice area of Community Medicine department to find out the burden of nutritional anemia and study its epidemiological correlates. The prevalence of anemia was found to be 60.8%, of which 39.6, 20.0 and 1.2% women had mild, moderate and severe anemia, respectively. Almost 63, 21.2 and 15.7% of the study subjects had microcytic hypochromic picture, indicative of iron deficiency anemia, normocytic hypochromic picture suggestive of early stage of iron deficiency anemia and dimorphic/ macrocytic hypochromic anemia implying iron deficiency anemia and or folate/vitamin B12 deficiency respectively. Statistical analyses have shown that epidemiological factors like age, education of respondents, socioeconomic status, history of excessive menstrual bleeding and inadequate intake of green leafy vegetables and pulses were found to be significantly associated with anemia.
