BACKGROUND: Despite several prophylactic strategies, postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Therefore, the search for modifiable preoperative risk factors is crucial. Few reports have explored this issue but the direct relationship between preoperative steroid use and postoperative VTE in surgical patients remains unexplored.
METHODS: We used The American College of Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database in our study. After analyzing patient characteristics, we used multivariate logistic regression to assess the crude and adjusted effect of steroids on VTE, our primary outcome.
RESULTS: Data was obtained for 1,921,901 patients, 58,667 of whom were on glucocorticoids for at least 30days preoperatively. VTE was higher in patients on steroids with an adjusted odds ratio of 1.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.45-1.64. The adjusted odds ratio for the secondary outcomes: mortality, urinary tract occurrences, wound occurrences, sepsis, cardiac and respiratory adverse events were 1.42 (CI 1.35-1.49), 1.40 (CI 1.30-1.50), 1.58 (CI 1.51-1.66), 1.51 (CI 1.42-1.60), 1.19 (CI 1.11-1.29) and 1.302 (CI 1.301-1.303) respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that surgical patients with prolonged preoperative glucocorticoid intake are at a higher risk of developing postoperative VTE as well as other secondary outcomes including: all-cause mortality, urinary tract occurrences, sepsis, wound occurrences, cardiac and respiratory adverse events. These are important findings since preoperative glucocorticoid use is a modifiable factor.
