| Abstract | Objective: As the population ages, vascular surgeons are treating progressively older, multimorbid patients at risk of peri-operative complications. An embedded physician has been shown to improve outcomes in general and orthopaedic surgery. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the impact of surgeon-physician co-management models on morbidity and mortality in vascular inpatients. Data sources: PubMed, Scopus, Embase, conference abstract listings, and clinical trial registries. Review methods: Studies comparing adult vascular surgery inpatients under co-management with "standard of care" were eligible. The relative risks (RRs) of mortality, medical complications, and 30 day re-admission between co-management and standard care were calculated. The effect of co-management on the mean length of stay was calculated using weighted means. Risk of bias was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomised Studies, and certainty assessment with the GRADE analysis tools. Results: No randomised trials were identified. Eight single institution studies between 2011 and 2020 with 7 410 patients were included. All studies were observational using before-after methodology. Studies were of high to moderate risk of bias, and outcomes were of very low GRADE certainty of evidence. Co-management was associated with a statistically significantly lower relative risk of mortality (RR 0.64, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.44 - 0.92; p = .02), cardiac complications (RR 0.47, 95% CI 0.25 - 0.87; p = .02), and infective complications (RR 0.49, 95% CI 0.35 - 0.67; p < .001) in vascular inpatients. No statistically significant differences in length of stay (MD -0.6 days, 95% CI -1.44 - 0.24 days; p = .16) and 30 day re-admission (RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.84 - 1.08; p = .49) were noted. Conclusion: Early results of physician and surgeon co-management for vascular surgery inpatients showed promising results from very low certainty data. Further well designed, prospective studies are needed to determine how to maximise the impact of physicians within a vascular service to improve patient outcomes while effectively using hospital resources. |
