  2. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Agenda • Preparing patients for IBD surgery • Patient factors - Psychological & Physical • Elective vs Emergent surgery • Medication factors • Surgical Options • Management after IBD surgery • Infections • Steroids & Narcotics • Mobility • Postop Monitoring • Stoma and J-Pouch Education
  3. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Preparing Patients for Surgery • Being psychologically prepared • Start at the first visit • When describing treatment options: • Surgery is one of our tools in IBD care • Surgery is always a reasonable option • Planned surgery has better outcomes than emergency surgery. • Delayed surgery for IBD has worse outcomes

    Risk factors for Poor Surgical Outcomes • Patient Factors • Sicker patients do worse • Timing of Surgery • Elective vs. Emergent • Surgical factors • Diversion vs. Immediate Anastomosis • Medication Factors • Pre-op and perioperative medications • Steroids, steroids, steroids. • TPN?
  6. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Patient Factors - Stamina • Major abdominal surgery can take 3-6+ hours • Major systemic stress • Like running 1-2 marathons. • Muscle matters • Psoas muscle size predictive of surgical outcomes • Pre-habilitation (pre-hab) RCTs underway • At minimum, build walking stamina – able to walk > 2 miles in a day preop. • Plan with patient and family to get out of bed and walk ASAP after surgery Annals of Surgery 2012; 256: 255-261
  7. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Patient Factors - Nutrition • Nutritional status – increased risk with • Weight loss > 10% • BMI < 18.5 • Albumin < 30 g/L – higher mortality and infection rates • Enteral supplementation and TPN both reduce risk (low quality data) • But enteral safer. TPN if obstructed/unable to meet > 60% of caloric needs • Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) associated with • improved albumin and CRP • Reduced surgical (32-> 8%) and infectious (20-> 3%) complications • Benefits increase when accompanied by steroid tapering. Nutrients 2017; 9: 562. JCC 2019; doi: 10.1093
  8. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Patient Factors - Habits • Smoking • More wound infections • More pulmonary complications • Strongly encourage to quit > 30 days prior to surgery • Alcohol • Increased cardiac and pulmonary complications • Increased wound and bleeding complications • Strongly encourage to quit > 30 days prior to surgery Int Anesthesiol Clin 2017; 55: 12-20.

    Elective vs. Emergent Surgery in CD Meta-Analysis: Mortality increased 6-fold in Emergent Surgery for Crohn’s disease Gasstroenterology 2015; 149: 928-937.
  10. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Surgical Options: Stages, Diversion • No RCTs in 2 stage vs 3 stage surgery for UC • Urgent and emergent cases tend to be done in 3 stages • More steroid use, weight loss, low albumin - > 3 stage • 28% of UC restorative proctocolectomy nationally done in 3 stages • At time of J pouch surgery, 3 stage patients had less weight loss, use of steroids, better albumin (time to get healthy before J pouch). • Diverting stoma in CD recommended for • Hemodynamically unstable, edematous bowel • Perforation with abdominal contamination • Significant malnutrition or chronic steroid use.

    Optimization Before Surgery • Treat Abscesses (Antibiotics / drainage) • Improve iron status / reduce anemia • Build Patient Walking Stamina • Optimize medications • Minimize inflammation • Minimize corticosteroids • Plan when to stop medications • And when to restart medications in CD
  17. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Abscess Treatment Before Surgery • Antibiotics • Drainage 70% success (Percutaneous > Surgical preferred) Abdominal wall abscesses are harder to drain percutaneously • EEN reduces recurrence in the short term
  18. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Optimizing medications before surgery • Minimize inflammation with steroid sparing medications • Minimize steroids to promote wound healing • Reduce the length of resection with “Neoadjuvant” therapy to “debulk” the length of inflammation
  19. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    When to stop medications before surgery • Steroids • Stop as soon as possible without worsening inflammation • Often taper as low as possible, then operate • Use IV equivalent of final steroid dose (not stress dose) • Taper rapidly after surgery (over 1-2 weeks) • Methotrexate, thiopurines, tofacitinib • Stop ~ 2 days before surgery • Antibody medications • Operate at midpoint between doses • If wound not infected • Restart shortly (1-2 weeks) after surgery for Crohn’s disease
  20. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    After Surgery • Infection • Debilitation and mobility • Narcotics lead to immobility, ileus • Steroid dosing and tapering
  21. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Infections • Lines, drains, and catheters out ASAP • Press and assess wound daily
  22. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Mobility •Reduces risk of VTE •Reduces ileus •Reduces Length of Stay
  23. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Narcotics at Discharge • Minimize outpatient prescriptions • 6% become new persistent opioid users • Use short-acting narcotics • OPEN Network Prescribing Recommendations: JAMA Surg. 2017;152(6):e170504 https://www.opioidprescribing.info/ Procedure Number of 5 mg Oxycodone Tablets at Discharge Colectomy 15 SB resection 20 Open cholecystectomy 15 Ostomy creation 15
  24. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    The Stress-Dose Steroid Tradition • Evidence-free standard of care • 100 mg hydrocortisone IV tid • No difference in RCT of HDS vs low dose through surgery • Use the IV hydrocortisone equivalent of pre-op prednisone dose, with rapid taper.

  25. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Bundled In-hospital Postoperative Care: ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) Principles • Fasting only 2h prior to surgery • Carbohydrate-loading drinks prior • Minimal incision size • Fluid homeostasis – do not flood the patient • Start drinking, eating again on day of surgery • Early mobilization – up and walking on day 1 • Early removal of (or no use of) drains, catheters, tubes • Minimize narcotics • UM IBD Postop protocol: http://www.med.umich.edu/ibd/docs/IBD_PostOp.pdf JAMA Surg. 2017;152(3):292-298. underscore
  26. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Who is at High Risk for CD Recurrence? • Postoperative Crohn’s disease • Smokers • Previous penetrating disease • 2nd (or more) intestinal resection • Early post-operative therapy for high risk patients • Close monitoring for recurrence in both low and high risk
  27. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    PREVENT study of Post-op Infliximab in CD • Randomized 297 postop CD participants to IFX vs PBO for 76 weeks • Evaluated clinical recurrence and endoscopic recurrence 51% 22% 0% 50% 100% Endoscopically Mild in PREVENT Rutgeerts i0 or i1 Placebo Infliximab 87% 80% 0% 50% 100% Clinical Remission in PREVENT Placebo Infliximab p = 0.10 p = < 0.001 Gastro 2016; 150: 1568-1578
  28. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    POCER study of Postoperative Strategy in CD • Started therapy shortly after surgery in high-risk CD patients • Smokers, prior resection, penetrating complications • Randomized to active monitoring vs. symptom driven care • Sequential step up to thiopurines, adalimumab • Monitored all patients closely • FCP q 3 months • Scope at 6 months • Can detect endoscopic recurrence with high sensitivity with FCP >100 q 3 months (NPV 91%) • Stepped up therapy for endoscopic recurrence in the first 18 months 22% 8% 0% 20% 40% Endoscopic Remission (i0) in POCER Symptom Driven Care Active Monitoring / Step Up Lancet, 2015; 385: 1406-1417. Gastro 2015; 148: 938-947
  29. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    Post-operative Care in UC? • UC – off immunosuppressive therapy • Keep rectal stump drained • Consider rectal stump treatment w/ suppository mesalamine if bleeding daily • Ileostomy • Educate on signs of dehydration • Educate on signs of obstruction • J pouch • Educate on signs of pouchitis • Surveill with scope q 2 years (probably overkill) • Annually if dysplasia in the resected colon
  30. ACG Midwest Regional Postgraduate Course August 17-18, 2019 Minneapolis, MN

    How to Monitor CD? What I Do • High risk: • Prior resection, penetrating complication, smoking: start with biologic • Strongly consider combo for anti-TNFs or prior anti-biologic antibody • FCP q 3 months • Monitoring • Scope as soon as FCP >100 (very sensitive for endo recurrence) • Or scope at 12 m if FCP stays <100 • Stepping up • Step up for ≧i2b (5 or more ileal ulcers, not including anastomotic ulcers) • Discuss options with patient for i0 with histologic inflammation, or i1.
