We found a total of 303 AEs, with only three patients (5%) having no adverse events. Most common severity category was \"I,\" that is \"contributed to patient's death\" (n = 110, 36% of all AEs). Of these, 60% were classified as preventable or probably preventable. The peak incidence of AEs was seen on the day of index surgery. Most common types of AEs were \"failure of vital functions\" (n = 79, 26%), followed by infections (n = 45, 15%).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>A high predicted risk of death and a peak of adverse events on the day of index surgery were detected. Identified themes reflect lack of documented multi-professional consensus on how to handle prevalent perioperative risk, vigilance, and postoperative level of care.</p>","PeriodicalId":6909,"journal":{"name":"Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica","volume":" ","pages":"1481-1486"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142363840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
