A post-anaesthetic follow-up program
Abstract:
Experience with an in-hospital post-anaesthetic follow-up program is reported. Visits are made by a Registered Nurse, a hospital employee working under the direction of the Head of the Department of Anesthesia. Over a three-year period 21,116 of 39,239 patients receiving anaesthetics were visited. Those not visited were mainly outpatients or patients discharged early following minor surgery. Anaesthetic related minor complications were noted in 8.15% of the patients seen in follow-up. Major complications occurred in 0.37% of patients seen.
