Perioperative Normothermia to Reduce the Incidence of Surgical-Wound Infection and Shorten Hospitalization

TL;DR: Maintaining normothermia intraoperatively is likely to decrease the incidence of infectious complications in patients undergoing colorectal resection and to shorten their hospitalizations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between intraoperative mean arterial pressure and clinical outcomes after noncardiac surgery: toward an empirical definition of hypotension.

TL;DR: Even short durations of an intraoperative mean arterial pressure less than 55 mmHg are associated with AKI and myocardial injury, and Randomized trials are required to determine whether outcomes improve with interventions that maintain an intraoper MAP of at least 55mmHg.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial Injury after Noncardiac Surgery: A Large, International, Prospective Cohort Study Establishing Diagnostic Criteria, Characteristics, Predictors, and 30-day Outcomes

TL;DR: Among adults undergoing noncardiac surgery, MINS was an independent predictor of 30-day mortality and had the highest population-attributable risk of the perioperative complications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relationship between Intraoperative Hypotension, Defined by Either Reduction from Baseline or Absolute Thresholds, and Acute Kidney and Myocardial Injury after Noncardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis.

TL;DR: There were no clinically important interactions between preoperative blood pressures and the relationship between hypotension and myocardial or kidney injury at intraoperative mean arterial blood pressures less than 65 mmHg and anesthetic management can be based on intraoperative pressures without regard to preoperative pressure.
