Smoking Cessation
surgery patients and rapid referral to a smoking-
n program could maximize the cessation period be-
gery, resulting in greater reductions in postoperative
ations in the secondary care setting.

the incidence and risk of intraoperative and postoperative complica-
tions in adult smokers: a systematic review. Tob Control. 2006;15:
352-358.

in former smokers
!

(95% CI 0.41-0.85)
in patients who had ≥4 weeks
smoking cessation
Even cessation of smoking for 2 days may have some benefits:
less carboxyhemoglobin, less effects from nicotine, 

improved mucociliary clearance
Deep Breathing & Incentive Spirometry
Equally effective (deep breathing vs
incentive spirometry)
50% reduction of postoperative
pulmonary complications
Incentive spirometry is recommended
after upper abdominal and thoracic surgery
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
Improved oxygenation
Reduced incidence of
pneumonia, intubation, and
admission to an ICU
However, CPAP may cause
patient discomfort

commended as a secondary intervention for 

refractory atelectasis
➡
Specific Management: COPD
Continue current medications (if stable)
Give regular bronchodilator therapy
(Ipratropium/Tiotropium) for 24 hr prior to
surgery until 24 hr postextubation
Give systemic steroid (e.g. dexamethasone 4
mg iv) 1-2 doses 12 hr prior to surgery in
severe symptomatic patient or patient with
frequent exacerbation
Continue systemic steroid for 3-5 days in
severe cases (but no more than 7 days)
Specific Management: Asthma
For patient with controlled asthma:
Continue current asthma medications
Apply inhaled rapid-acting beta agonist 2-4 puffs or
nebulizer treatment within 30 minutes of intubation
Give nebulizer treatment in the perioperative period
(~24 h after extubation)
For patient with partly or uncontrolled asthma:
Systemic glucocorticoid (e.g., dexamethasone 4 mg) 

1-2 doses in 12 hour prior to surgery may be used
Systemic glucocorticoid may be continued for 3-5 days
in severe cases
Specific Management: Morbid Obesity
Administer induction drugs, opioids, and
neuromuscular agents using ideal body
weight (IBW) NOT total body weight
Positioning in“ramped”and“reversed
Trendelenberg”position
Awake intubation in patient when mask
oxygenation is inadequate
Application of 100% oxygen with PEEP 10
cmH2O for 5 minutes before the induction
of anesthesia ± PEEP 10 cmH2O thereafter

 improved mucociliary clearance

  • 47. Specific Management: Asthma For patient with controlled asthma: Continue current asthma medications Apply inhaled rapid-acting beta agonist 2-4 puffs or nebulizer treatment within 30 minutes of intubation Give nebulizer treatment in the perioperative period (~24 h after extubation) For patient with partly or uncontrolled asthma: Systemic glucocorticoid (e.g., dexamethasone 4 mg) 
 1-2 doses in 12 hour prior to surgery may be used Systemic glucocorticoid may be continued for 3-5 days in severe cases
  • 48. Specific Management: Morbid Obesity Administer induction drugs, opioids, and neuromuscular agents using ideal body weight (IBW) NOT total body weight Positioning in“ramped”and“reversed Trendelenberg”position Awake intubation in patient when mask oxygenation is inadequate Application of 100% oxygen with PEEP 10 cmH2O for 5 minutes before the induction of anesthesia ± PEEP 10 cmH2O thereafter
