Abstract

Purpose of Review

To determine which perioperative outcomes are most relevant for patients, clinicians and healthcare systems to determine long-term recovery from surgical intervention.

Recent Findings

Measurement of perioperative outcomes is essential for the development and delivery of high-quality, value-based and patient-centered care. Traditionally, outcome measurement has been focused on quantitative outcomes such as mortality and morbidity. Whilst these measurements have significant merit, they may not reflect what is of greatest import to patients whose priorities are often centered around an expeditious return to perioperative function. Patient-reported outcome measurements are available in a variety of formats and aim to assess the effect of surgical intervention across several domains. It is also becoming increasingly evident that socioeconomic situation and ethnicity play a significant part in access to and recovery from surgery.

Summary

Many factors must be taken into consideration to enable the delivery of value-based surgical care, in particular with an aging population, advances in perioperative techniques and the increase of surgical delivery on a global scale.

31.05.2024 Apoplex Nachrichten

Der optimale Ansatz für die Blutdruckkontrolle bei Patientinnen und Patienten mit akutem Schlaganfall ist noch nicht gefunden. Ob sich eine frühzeitige Therapie der Hypertonie noch während des Transports in die Klinik lohnt, hat jetzt eine Studie aus China untersucht.

Reanimation bei Kindern – besser vor Ort oder während Transport?

29.05.2024 Reanimation im Kindesalter Nachrichten

Zwar scheint es laut einer Studie aus den USA und Kanada bei der Reanimation von Kindern außerhalb einer Klinik keinen Unterschied für das Überleben zu machen, ob die Wiederbelebungsmaßnahmen während des Transports in die Klinik stattfinden oder vor Ort ausgeführt werden. Jedoch gibt es dabei einige Einschränkungen und eine wichtige Ausnahme.
