Chung and Jung: Perioperative Risk Factors Related to Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome after Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

Abstract

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has become the standard treatment for large and complex kidney stones since its introduction in 1976. On the other hand, postoperative complications are not rare and can be quite significant. Of these complications, postoperative infectious complications, such as systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), remain a seminal event and a possible cause of perioperative mortality. Several recent studies have found a number of factors that increase the risk of SIRS after PCNL. These include preoperative factors (patient's characteristics) and factors associated with the intraoperative and postoperative findings. The present study describes the perioperative risk factors of SIRS after PCNL. These findings can help decrease the incidence of infectious complications, including SIRS, in patients undergoing PCNL.

Definitions of SIRS, infection, and sepsis
SIRS Two or more of the following:
‐ Body temperature >38°C or <36°C
‐ Heart rate>90 bpm
‐ Respiratory rate>20 breaths/min or PaCO2<32 mmHg
‐ White blood cell count >12,000 cells/μl or <4,000 cells/μl
Infection Pathological process caused by the invasion of normally sterile tissue or fluid or the body cavity by pathogenic or potentially pathogenic micro-organisms
Sepsis Clinical syndrome defined by the presence of both SIRS and infection
Severe sepsis Sepsis resulting in organ dysfunction
Septic shock Sepsis resulting in acute circulatory failure characterized by persistent arterial hypotension

SIRS: systemic inflammatory response syndrome, bpm: beats per minute.
