Article Synopsis
- * The introduction of a formal policy in 2003 allowed for quicker evaluations and timely surgeries within 48 hours for high-risk patients, leading to better outcomes compared to the period when no such policy was in place (1996-2002).
- * The study indicated that even with older patients and those with more co-morbidities in the later period, the health care team's coordinated efforts decreased hospital mortality from 28% to 13% and improved survival rates over three years from 34% to 16%.
