Article Synopsis
- Unplanned postoperative admissions to the ICU present risks to patient safety and challenge clinical resources, making it an important metric for evaluating perioperative care.
- A study conducted across three hospitals in the Amhara region aimed to understand the incidence and factors contributing to unplanned ICU admissions following surgery, using data analyzed through SPSS software.
- Findings indicated that factors like low preoperative hemoglobin levels, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) status, and intraoperative blood loss were significantly associated with unplanned ICU admissions, suggesting deficiencies in patient preparation and risk management prior to surgery.
