Summary

A standardized perioperative pathway for high-risk pediatric scoliosis surgery did not reduce postoperative complications. Selective subspecialty consultations may be more appropriate for these complex cases.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Orthopedics
  • Spine Surgery
  • Patient Management

Background:

  • High-risk pediatric patients with neuromuscular or syndromic scoliosis face increased postoperative complications.
  • Complications include surgical site infections, pulmonary issues, and gastrointestinal disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of a standardized High-Risk Protocol (HRP) on managing high-risk pediatric scoliosis surgery patients.
  • To determine if this multidisciplinary pathway reduces postoperative complications.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective chart and radiographic review of 71 pediatric patients (8-18 years) with scoliosis.
  • Comparison between a group fully completing the HRP (n=35) and a control group (n=36).
  • Minimum 2-year follow-up to assess outcomes and complications.

Main Results:

  • The HRP group had significantly larger preoperative and postoperative curve magnitudes.
  • Pulmonary disease was more prevalent in the HRP group (60% vs. 31%).
  • Overall complication rates were similar between groups (29% vs. 28%), with no difference in complication types or severity.

Conclusions:

  • A standardized, multidisciplinary perioperative pathway may not universally reduce complications in high-risk pediatric spine surgery.
  • Selective consultation with subspecialists might be a more effective approach for this patient population.
