Anesthesia fortheDLS Patient:
Minimizing Risk andMaximizing
Safety

Preoperative Optimization
In an effort to accommodate an aging population
with chronic diseases, the American Society of
Anesthesiologists (ASA) developed the perioperative surgical home [1]. The PSH aims to optimize patient care through the process of surgery
and recovery, beginning in the preoperative stage.
During this period, the anesthesiology service
will collaborate with the surgeon and primary
care physician to evaluate the patient’s history,
comorbidities, and goals of surgery. They will
also make recommendations on additional testing
and medical management in preparation for surgery. At this point, the patient’s team is focused
on optimizing the patient for successful surgery
and postoperative recovery. The DLS patient will
likely require multiple surgeries and hospitalizations; thus the PSH model is ideal in maintaining
anesthesiology’s continual presence in the
patient’s care.
DLS patients tend to have several medical
comorbidities including hypertension, coronary
artery disease (CAD), arrhythmia, cerebrovascu-

lar disease (CVD), obesity, hyperlipidemia, renal
disease, elderly age (60+ years of age), chronic
lung disease, and history of smoking [2, 3]. These
disease processes all negatively impact the cardiovascular system and should be medically optimized in preparation for anesthesia.
In 2014, the American College of Cardiology
(ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA)
developed guidelines for perioperative cardiovascular evaluation for the management of patients
undergoing noncardiac surgery [4]. These guidelines provide a stepwise algorithm stratifying the
risk of patients with potential cardiovascular conditions. The rst step assesses the urgency of surgery for patients with risk factors or a history of
CAD [5]. Risk factors for CAD were rst introduced by the Framingham Heart Study [6], but
now can be taken from the ACC/AHA
Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
(ASCVD) risk calculator [7]. This tool considers
age, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, and smoker status. These risk factors and the urgency of surgery
should be evaluated in a discussion between the
surgeon and anesthesiologist. If surgery can be
delayed, the ideal plan of action involves treating
the underlying cardiovascular issues prior to surgery. Unfortunately, in the DLS population critical limb ischemia and sepsis are common causes
of urgent and emergent surgical interventions [8].
The second step evaluates the patient for acute
coronary syndrome (ACS), which requires

referral to the cardiology service for evaluation
and management. The third step proceeds if the
surgery is deemed non-emergent; the patient does
not have ACS, but the patient has risk factors for
CAD. At this point, the anesthesiology service
will assess the patient’s risk for major adverse
cardiovascular events (MACE) dened as total
death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, hospitalization due to heart failure (HF), and ACS
requiring revascularization via percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery
bypass graft (CABG). This risk can be evaluated
by the American College of Surgeons National
Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP)
or the Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI).
Although there has not been a clear consensus on
which calculator is superior [9], the RCRI is easier to remember and simpler to use with only six
risk factors. The RCRI risk factors include the
type of surgery, ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure (CHF), CVD, insulin dependence, and preoperative creatinine greater than
2mg/dL.These risk factors are each assigned one
point, cumulatively translating into the risk of
MACE.A score of two points indicates a 10%
risk of MACE and suggests further evaluation
and testing may be necessary.
The common comorbidities of the DLS population will likely fulll several risk factors for
MACE and necessitate further cardiovascular
evaluation. In patients with elevated risk for
MACE, the next step evaluates functional capacity through the Duke Activity Status Index
(DASI). This series of self-reported activities
correlate with functional status or assesses metabolic equivalents (METs), which can be objectively tested through cardiopulmonary exercise
testing. The ACC/AHA guidelines indicate that
moderate functional capacity or about 4 METs
(and a DASI score of 10) is the minimum requirement for proceeding to surgery. This can be estimated with the ability to walk up two ights of
stairs without chest pain or shortness of breath.
Most DLS patients will not be able to answer this
question accurately and require further assessment due to unknown functional capacity.
Exercise stress testing is typically the next step in
objectively assessing functional status. This may
not be physically feasible for DLS patients, leaving pharmacologic stress testing as the best alternative. If the stress test results are abnormal, the
ACC/AHA guidelines recommend considering
coronary angiography and revascularization.
In the DLS population, glucose control is
especially important in medically optimizing
patients for surgery and recovery. Hospital systems may have their own guidelines for appropriate preoperative serum glucose, and the denition
of glucose control may vary across groups. Based
on the widely cited NICE-SUGAR study, serum
glucose is ideally kept in the 140–180 mg/dL
range [10]. Although this is based on patients in
the intensive care unit, this can be translated to
the realm of anesthesia where surgical stress,
medically induced comas, and potentially signicant uid shifts can occur. Glucose control is
important for proper wound healing and avoidance of hypoglycemic or hyperglycemic coma
[11]. Preoperative glucose control will allow for
more optimal control in the intraoperative and
postoperative settings.
Intraoperative Risk Mitigation
Surgical interventions will inevitably require the
specialty care of anesthesiologists, especially
within the DLS patient population. This group
typically has several comorbidities affecting the
cardiovascular system and requires many anesthetic considerations to maximize patient safety.
Nil per os (NPO) guidelines were developed
by the ASA in an effort to prevent aspiration risk
associated with sedation and anesthesia [12].
The data was based on gastric pH and volumes
relative to the time of fasting, resulting in the
recommendation of at least 8h of fasting prior to
surgery. However, these guidelines assume normal gastric motility. In the DLS population, diabetic gastroparesis is a possibility and delayed
gastric emptying should be considered when
assessing NPO status. Although the incidence of
gastroparesis is 4.6% in type 1 diabetics and
1.3% in type 2 diabetics [13], abdominal fullness
or bloating are associated with diabetic gastroparesis [14] and should be factored into determining

11 Anesthesia fortheDLS Patient: Minimizing Risk andMaximizing Safety
149
whether a patient is appropriately NPO. The
administration of increasing depths of anesthesia
can lead to an inability to protect the airway and
the aspiration of gastric contents. In the incidence of an increased risk of aspiration, the
anesthetic may be modied to use minimal to no
sedation with a regional anesthesia technique to
preserve airway reexes, or general anesthesia
with an endotracheal tube to ensure a secure
airway.
The intraoperative management of DLS
patients can include general or regional anesthesia. General anesthesia is dened as the lack of
response to surgical stimulus, allowing the surgeon to safely focus on the procedure. General
anesthesia involves administering a mixture of
sedatives, hypnotics, and analgesics that invariably lead to hypotension and airway obstruction.
This may potentially result in organ damage,
brain injury, and death if not managed by an
experienced anesthesiologist.
Anesthesiologists are prudent about which
patients can safely be anesthetized as there are
many considerations to be made prior to proceeding with general anesthesia. Other than cardiovascular catastrophes, the ACC/AHA guidelines
do not address other concerns in the perioperative
period. Patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(OSA) are at risk for many anesthesia-related
complications [15]. These same patients are commonly obese and may also have difcult airway
placement, which can signicantly increase the
danger of inducing a general anesthetic [16].
General anesthesia is notorious for having a high
incidence of nausea, and prophylactic antiemetics are routinely administered [17]. Due to
these risks and adverse effects, the use of regional
anesthesia, which includes neuraxial anesthesia
and peripheral nerve blockade, may be safer.
Neuraxial anesthesia involves the injection of
local anesthetic into the epidural and/or intrathecal space to achieve surgical anesthesia at the spinal cord [18]. When neuraxial anesthesia is
utilized, it obviates the need for general anesthesia. These patients generally tolerate surgery with
minimal or no sedation, which allows the anesthesiologist to avoid the risks associated with
general anesthesia.
Neuraxial anesthesia includes two techniques,
spinal and epidural. Spinal anesthesia involves
intrathecal injection of local anesthetic with or
without an adjuvant, resulting in the abolition of
motor and sensory transmission from the level of
the injected site. Epidural anesthetics involve
injection in the epidural space. Catheters may be
used for both techniques, allowing for the continuous infusion of local anesthetic. In addition to
providing surgical anesthesia, neuraxial catheters
can be used postoperatively for pain control.
However, the catheter may be a conduit for
potential infection, increasing with the amount of
time the catheter remains in place. For this reason, neuraxial catheters are usually used for
short-term periods. Contraindications to neuraxial blockade include patient refusal, infection at
the injection site, systemic infection, coagulopathy, hemodynamic instability or hypovolemia,
preload-dependent states such as hypertrophic
obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), severe
compressive radiculopathy at the level of insertion, and increased cranial pressure [19]. DLS
patients are vasculopathic and are commonly on
anticoagulation and/or antiplatelet regimen,
especially if recently revascularized. This must
be weighed in the decision to pursue neuraxial
anesthesia due to the increased risk of epidural
hematoma [20].
The use of neuraxial blockade intraoperatively
raises concern as neural blockade of sympathetic
bers may lead to hypotension; however, this is
usually reversible and can be treated with intravenous hydration and vasopressors. Other intraoperative concerns of neuraxial anesthesia include
paresthesia due to trauma to the spinal cord, cardiopulmonary compromise due to high spinal
level, nausea and vomiting typically caused by
hypotension, postdural puncture headache, urinary retention, and infection [21]. Additionally,
neuraxial procedures require a cooperating patient
to appropriately position, which may not be feasible for a bedbound, deconditioned DLS patient.
Peripheral nerve (or perineural) blockade
extends the concept of neuraxial anesthesia, and
entails depositing local anesthetics around nerves
distal to the spinal cord. The local anesthetic acts
to halt the transmission of pain to the spinal cord.

Since injection around the spinal cord is avoided,
peripheral nerve blockade circumvents many of
the aforementioned adverse effects related to
neuraxial anesthesia, especially autonomic blockade. For upper extremity procedures, common
brachial plexus nerve blocks include interscalene,
supraclavicular, infraclavicular, and axillary nerve
blocks. For lower extremity procedures, common
nerve blocks aim to block branches of the lumbar
and sacral plexus, including the femoral, obturator, lateral femoral cutaneous, and sciatic nerves.
Ankle blocks target the distal branches of the
femoral and sciatic nerve and are commonly used
for foot procedures. The type of block selected is
based on the location of surgery and the associated dermatomes, myotomes, and osteotomes.
Like neuraxial procedures, peripheral nerve
blocks can be extended with the use of catheters
for postoperative pain control.
Peripheral nerve blocks were historically performed based on anatomic landmarks and patient
feedback via transient paresthesia. The advent of
peripheral nerve stimulators allows the anesthesiologist to assess if the location of the needle is
adequate based on the motor response elicited
relative to a programmed current. The development of ultrasound technology has allowed providers to achieve successful nerve blockade at a
higher rate with a lower amount of local anesthetic, thus reducing the risks of local anesthetic
systemic toxicity among other adverse effects
[22]. Similar to neuraxial anesthesia, peripheral
nerve blockade can be used to obtain surgical
anesthesia with minimal to no sedation.
Peripheral nerve blocks also avoid many of the
risks related to neuraxial anesthesia. Although
rare, nerve injury, infection, and local anesthetic
systemic toxicity may occur with any regional
anesthesia technique. Due to the relative safety of
this approach, peripheral nerve blockade is an
attractive alternative [23].
Postoperative Recovery Optimization
Up to 40,000 amputations are performed in the
United States (US) annually. In 2005, 1.6 million
people in the US were living with a limb amputa-
tion [24]. Amputation may have sequelae of
residual limb pain (RLP), sometimes referred to
as stump pain, and phantom limb pain (PLP).
Both phenomena can develop into chronic pain
after amputation (CPAP) [25]. RLP occurs at the
actual site of the amputated limb and is caused by
nerve entrapment, neuroma formation, surgical
trauma, ischemia, skin breakdown, or infection
[26]. PLP is described as chronic, severe pain or
unpleasant sensation in a part of the body that no
longer exists after amputation. PLP develops as
early as 24 h to 1 week after amputation. The
prevalence of PLP varies from 40 to 80% depending on the site of amputation, causation leading
to amputation, and time since amputation [27]. In
differentiating RLP from PLP, a thorough physical exam of the amputation site can rule out RLP,
and other pain ndings such as the quality and
severity of pain, sensation, allodynia, and hyperalgesia should be noted as well. Patients with
chronic back pain with radiculopathy can be mistaken for PLP and should be ruled out [28]. The
exact cause for the development of PLP is
unclear, but has been found to be multifactorial
including peripheral, central, and psychological
factors. Phantom limb sensation (PLS), RLP, preamputation pain, and diabetes are risk factors for
developing PLP [29].
While treatment of RLP involves addressing
the underlying cause, treatment for PLP) is more
difcult and focuses on symptom management.
Poor management of PLP may lead to increased
incidence of obesity, cardiovascular disease,
sleep disorders, chronic joint pain, and lower
back pain [30]. A conservative, interdisciplinary
approach to preventing PLP involving physical
therapists, prosthetic professionals, mental health
professionals, and pain specialists is benecial in
addressing potential RLP and PLP.
Common pharmacotherapies for PLP such as
NSAIDs and acetaminophen are starting points
for any pain regimen. Opioids are commonly
used, but should be used conservatively to avoid
tolerance and dependence, and are best used with
adjuvants. Adjuvant medications include tricyclic
antidepressants (TCAs) such as amitriptyline,
and anticonvulsants such as gabapentin and pregabalin. Although both TCAs and anticonvul-

sants have been extensively studied, both show
mixed results, and evidence has been inconclusive for recommendation. NMDA antagonists
such as ketamine may be helpful, especially in
patients with chronic pain syndromes. One
review analysis recommends a regimen of intravenous ketamine and intravenous morphine for
acute treatment of PLP and oral morphine for
intermediate- to long-term treatment (8weeks to
1 year) [31]. Topical capsaicin can help reduce
hypersensitivity, and botulinum toxin type B can
improve hyperhidrosis to facilitate prosthetic use.
However, a Cochrane review for the current pharmacologic interventions in treating PLP concluded the available studies are not large enough
to demonstrate evidence that pharmacologic therapies should be recommended in the treatment of
PLP [32]. Pharmacologic therapy will remain a
mainstay in patient care due to familiarity with
the usage of medications, and the convenience of
having a treatment modality that physicians can
prescribe in the outpatient setting for patients to
self-administer at home.
There is much research without denitive evidence for non-pharmacologic options such as
transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation
(TENS), spinal cord simulation (SCS), peripheral
nerve stimulation (PNS), sympathetic nerve
block, mirror therapy, augmented reality biofeedback, acupuncture, and stump revision. Surgical
techniques include peri-neuromal lidocaine
injection, targeted nerve implantation, and targeted muscle re-innervation. These techniques
have shown some efcacy in preventing PLP.
Peripheral nerve blockade has been studied as
a non-opioid, non-systemic, targeted pharmacological therapy for preventing and treating PLP).
A pilot study in 1991 found that a catheter
inserted in the transected nerve sheath infused
with 0.25% bupivacaine at 10mL/h for 72h signicantly reduced postoperative opioid consumption. The patients did not develop PLP at the
12month follow-up despite the presence of preoperative limb pain. With the growing body of
evidence, perineural analgesia is an essential
component of the multimodal approach to postoperative limb amputation and in preventing the
development of chronic pain.
Regional anesthesia is also benecial in managing early postoperative pain. A retrospective
study in Turkey found that epidural anesthesia or
peripheral nerve blockade can reduce RLP and
PLP in the rst week after limb amputation compared to general anesthesia and spinal anesthesia,
but has no difference across anesthetic techniques
at 14–17 months postoperation [33]. Another
cross-sectional survey found neuraxial anesthesia
led to better pain control in the rst postoperative
week, but was not different from general anesthesia in the development of RLP or PLP at the
14-month mark [34]. A large retrospective cohort
study in South Korea determined that the incidence of PLP after limb amputation was highest
when general anesthesia was used, then neuraxial
anesthesia, and the least with perineural nerve
blockade [35]. Although it appears that anesthetic
technique does not impact long-term development of chronic pain, perhaps preoperative pain
control helps in preventing postoperative pain. A
prospective controlled study in England found
that an epidural infusion of bupivacaine, clonidine, and diamorphine started 24–48h preoperatively and maintained for at least 3 days
postoperatively led to a signicant reduction in
the incidence of PLP) at the 1-year follow-up
[36]. A randomized, prospective trial in Greece
demonstrated perioperative pain control, whether
via neuraxial or intravenous patient-controlled
analgesia (PCA), will lead to better pain scores
and reduced PLP at 6 months [37]. Despite the
numerous studies on perioperative pain and the
subsequent development of RLP, PLP, and CPAP,
the sample subgroups remain relatively small and
difcult to compare [38]. However, studies have
shown that perioperative pain control can reduce
acute perioperative pain [39] and perineural catheters are recommended as part of the analgesic
regimen in all patients undergoing amputation
[40]. Despite the promising results of these studies on the benets of perineural catheters in preventing the onset of RLP, PLP, and CPAP, the
evidence remains small and the results are conicting [41].
Neuraxial and perineural catheters can lead to
infection, especially in diabetic patients [42], and
the recommendation is to remove and/or replace

both neuraxial and perineural catheters after 4
days [43]; however, the practice varies by hospital. While any infection is a concern in this patient
population, infections related to neuraxial catheters can be disastrous since the development of an
epidural abscess may necessitate surgical intervention. Perineural catheter infections are generally less signicant and rarely require more than
short-term antibiotic treatment. There is an ongoing investigation into colonization of catheters
and eventual infection [44]. Coagulase-negative
staphylococcus is the most commonly found
microbe colonizing the catheter, and independent
risk factors associated with increased colonization include catheter placement greater than 48h,
diabetes, and use of antibiotics in the month prior
to surgery [45]. In this same study, it was noted
that the incidence of catheter colonization was
mostly from interscalene and femoral catheters.
It is imperative to consult the APS for managing
these catheters.
The postoperative pain management of DLS
patients relies on a robust acute pain service
(APS). The APS can help place and manage epidural and perineural catheters, and includes
replacing them if dislodged and/or are ineffective,
or manipulating the dosage to effect. The APS can
also help manage the complex analgesic medications that these patients may be administered.
The PSH model has been in practice for
20 years and is becoming more widespread
nationwide. This multidisciplinary approach
leads to more usage of Enhanced Recovery after
Surgery (ERAS) protocols [46], improved outcomes, more meaningful perioperative measures,
and improved costs and efciency [47]. The optimal care of DLS patients requires early involvement of anesthesia and acute pain services. The
anesthesia service is essential to optimize patients
prior to surgery and minimize risk intraoperatively. The utilization of an APS employing anesthesia providers with specialized skills for
interventional procedures and managing pain
syndromes is essential for a successful PSH,
especially in the postoperative period [48].
Overall, the PSH model helps improve patient
outcomes, improve patient satisfaction, and
decrease medical expenditures.
