Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients undergoing major elective abdominal surgery and their impact on mortality.
- PPCs were found in 12.6% of patients, with a notably higher incidence in general surgery compared to gynecological and urological procedures.
- Patients who experienced PPCs had increased hospital stays, higher readmission rates, and greater mortality risk within 30 days and one year after the surgery.
Background: We carry out a retrospective observational analysis of clinical records of patients with major placenta praevia who underwent cesarean section surgery over a period of 20 months in our hospital. Out of a total of 40 patients, 20 were subjected to Goal-Directed Therapy (GDT) implemented with non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring using the EV1000 ClearSight system (Group I) and 20 to standard hemodynamic monitoring (Group II). Given the risk of conspicuous blood loss, this study evaluate the impact on maternal and fetal health of GDT relative to standard hemodynamic monitoring.
