Answers
ANTIBIOTICS
1. What is the ideal timing of administration of prophylactic antibiotics prior to surgery?
C. 30 to 59 minutes of incision.
Several trials have found this to be the optimal window of administering prophylactic antibiotics for preventing surgical site infections (SSIs). Time frames outside of this window are associated with a higher risk of developing a surgical site infection (Table 9.1).
Table 9.1 Relationship to SSI Rates: European Data
Time Administered RR OR p Value
<30 minutes before incision 2.0 2.0 0.02
30–59 minutes before incision 1.0 1.0 *
60–120 minutes before incision 1.8 1.7 0.05
Abbreviations: OR, odds ratio; RR, relative risk. Note: * No p value is listed for antibiotic infusion times from 59 to 30 minutes before incision because that timing had the lowest risk of SSI and therefore serves as the reference or standard to which all other infusion times are compared.

2. A 59-year-old female is undergoing 5-hour body contouring surgery with concomitant mastopexy. Her past
medical history consists of preexisting coronary artery disease, obstructive sleep apnea, body mass index of 34, and high cholesterol. Which of the following is a biggest risk factor for developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) for this patient?
A. BMI >30.
The answer is A, BMI >30, which is a statistically signif icant risk factor for developing DVT. Other risk factors include increased operative time (>6 hours), increased pain, large excisional procedures, and hormone replacement/birth control. Coronary artery disease, age, and breast surgery are not risk factors for postop­erative DVT.

3. Using the Caprini score, which of the following is the greatest risk factor for developing a DVT?
D. Genetic hypercoagulable disorder.
The answer is D, genetic hypercoagulable disorder, which represents 3 risk scores on the Davison-Caprini risk assessment. Age >40, pregnancy, and malignancy are all risk factors described in the Davison-Caprini risk assessment but carry less of a weight than genetic hypercoagulable disorder. Fractures of the hip, stroke, and spinal cord injuries are other factors that place patients at the highest risk of developing DVT (Table 9.2).

COMPLICATIONS
4. After liposuction, what is the most common cause of death?
B. Thromboembolism.
The answer is B, thromboembolism, which can lead to pulmonary embolism and death. After thromboembolism, gastrointestinal perforation is the second most common cause of fatality, followed by anesthesia-related complications, and finally fat embolism (Table 9.3).

COMPLICATIONS
5. What is the most common cause of patient dissatisfaction after aesthetic plastic surgery procedures?
D. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV).
The answer is D, postoperative nausea and vomiting, which is also a major factor in delayed discharge and unplanned postoperative hospital admissions. Upwards of 10% of patients experience postoperative nausea and vomiting in the recovery room. Multimodal pain management, avoiding long-acting narcotics, and inhalational anesthetics are the best ways of preventing and treating nausea and vomiting after surgery.

ANTIBIOTICS
6. Prior to which of the following surgical procedures is administration of prophylactic antibiotics suggested?
B. Breast reduction.
The answer is B, breast reduction, as surgery crosses the ductal architecture of the breast which contains bacteria. Carpal tunnel release, standard liposuction, lipoma excision, and blepharoplasty are clean cases and evidence does not support the use of prophylactic antibiotics. Antibiotics are also recommended for contaminated cases, clean contaminated cases where the aerodigestive track is entered, and cases that may involve an implant.

PREOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT
7. In the postbariatric body contouring patient population, what is the most common vitamin or mineral defi-
ciency seen preoperatively?
C. Iron.
The answer is C, iron, which is associated with iron-deficiency anemia seen in up to 50% of postbariatric patients. Vitamin B12 and folate deficiencies are commonly seen in this population after malabsorptive

procedures but are still not as common as iron deficiency. Hypocalcemia can be seen in this patient population but is not as common.

COMPLICATION MANAGEMENT
8. What is most effective strategy to decrease infection rates?
C. Double gloving instead of single gloving.
Double gloving reduces perforation of the inner glove and reduces risk of contamination. Analysis of 655 cases revealed that 31% of surgical gloves had a perforation by the end of the case. Glove perforations raises the risk of surgical site infection (SSI) (odds ratio [OR] = 2.0). Double gloving is associated with less perforation of the inner glove (OR = 0.10). Shaving increases the risk of infection 2.4-fold. Hypothermia is a risk factor for worsening infection. Preoperative antibiotics should be given 30 to 59 minutes before skin incision, but not immediately before the incision is made. Chlorhexidine/alcohol preps are more effective than betadine in skin decontamination and SSI reduction. Vitamin supplementation in an otherwise healthy patient does not improve wound healing or decrease infection (it is only effective in vitamin-deficient patients).

VENOUS THROMBOEMBOLISM (VTE) MANAGEMENT
9. Hormone replacement therapy increases DVT risk through which of the following mechanisms?
A. Decreased levels of protein S.
The answer is A, decreased levels of protein S, which is part of the anticoagulation pathway. Protein C is not affected by exogenous estrogen. Factor V Leiden is associated with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) but is caused by activated protein C resistance. Finally, heparin and not estrogen binds to antithrombin III, which is part of the anticoagulation cascade. Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) activates plasminogen and is fibrinolytic.

PREOPERATIVE MEASURES TO REDUCE COMPLICATIONS
1. A female patient with multiple comorbidities including diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder , hyperten-
sion, and an underlying coagulopathy requires preoperative medical clearance by the patient's primary care physi­cian. Which of the following comorbidities places the patient at an increased risk for delayed wound healing?
A. Diabetes.
Poor glycemic control places diabetic patients seeking any aesthetic surgery procedure at increased risk of surgical site infection and delayed wound healing. medical clearance from their primar y care or medical specialist provider in order to undergo elective aes­thetic surgery. The other answer choices are not risk factors for wound healing-based complications.

2. When conducting a preoperative consultation, you find out that your Caucasian female patient has had a his-
tory of multiple blood clots during unsuccessful pregnancies resulting in spontaneous abortions. Which of the following hematologic coagulopathy is she most likely to have?
A. Factor V Leiden deficiency.
Factor V Leiden gene is found as a heterozygous mutation in 3 to 7% of white females and results in a sixfold increase in the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). VTE risk is increased if combined with cancer, travel, immobilization, use of oral contraceptives, hormone replacement therapy, and estrogen receptor antagonists. Factor X deficiency is also a clotting disorder; however, it is rarer. Von Willebrand disease, Glanzman disease, and hemophilia A are all abnormal clotting disorders along different pathways where patients are more likely to bleed and have a dif ficult time forming a clot.
