A prospective survey was conducted over a one-month period in all surgical patients admitted to the recovery room of a university-affiliated teaching hospital. Complications arising in the recovery room were documented by the nursing staff according to predefined criteria and were critically evaluated. A total of 443 patients were admitted to the recovery room and in 133 (30%) of these, some form of complication was noted. There were 86 patients with complications referable to the central nervous system, 68 with abnormal cardiovascular parameters, 24 with nausea and/or vomiting and 10 with abnormalities referable to the respiratory system. Many patients had more than one complication. The results are discussed, with emphasis on their relevance to current anaesthetic practice. It is concluded that many patients exhibit recovery room complications when they are specifically sought. The recovery period remains a time of great potential danger to patients.
在一所大学附属医院的恢复室，对所有外科手术患者进行了为期一个月的前瞻性调查。护理人员根据预先确定的标准记录恢复室中出现的并发症，并进行严格评估。共有443名患者进入恢复室，其中133名（30%）出现了某种形式的并发症。有86名患者出现中枢神经系统相关并发症，68名心血管参数异常，24名出现恶心和/或呕吐，10名出现呼吸系统相关异常。许多患者有不止一种并发症。对结果进行了讨论，重点是它们与当前麻醉实践的相关性。得出的结论是，当专门寻找时，许多患者会出现恢复室并发症。恢复期对患者来说仍然是一个极具潜在危险的时期。
