PERIOPERATIVE CARDIAC ARREST: A RARE EVENT WORTH MEASURING
Department of Anesthesia, The Permanente Medical Group; University of California San Francisco; NIHR Southampton Biomedical Research Centre; University of Southampton
PDF4 pages399 KB
Perioperative cardiac arrest is a rare but serious occurrence that disproportionately affects patients undergoing emergency surgeries compared to elective surgeries. The editorial references a study by Anezaki et al. that illustrates the distinct risk profiles and outcomes for these two patient groups. It advocates for improved preoperative risk stratification and the implementation of systems to reduce variability in care across institutions. The authors call for a focus on upstream prevention strategies to enhance overall patient outcomes during the perioperative period.
