Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate whether there are differences in postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) between males and females following surgery under general anesthesia, using data from the LAS VEGAS study involving 146 hospitals across 29 countries.
- A total of 9,697 patients were analyzed in two cohorts: an unmatched cohort (55.1% female, 44.9% male) and a matched cohort (50% female and male), finding no significant differences in PPC rates between the genders in both cohorts.
- The study concluded that, in this international patient population, the incidence of PPCs did not differ significantly between males and females, as well as noting comparable hospital stays and mortality rates.*

Background: The aim of this post hoc analysis of a large cohort study was to evaluate the association between night-time surgery and the occurrence of intraoperative adverse events (AEs) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs).
Methods: LAS VEGAS (Local Assessment of Ventilatory Management During General Anesthesia for Surgery) was a prospective international 1-week study that enrolled adult patients undergoing surgical procedures with general anaesthesia and mechanical ventilation in 146 hospitals across 29 countries. Surgeries were defined as occurring during 'daytime' when induction of anaesthesia was between 8:00 AM and 7:59 PM, and as 'night-time' when induction was between 8:00 PM and 7:59 AM.
