Brief Summary
Postoperative organ failures commonly occur after major abdominal surgery and substantially increase the utilization of resources and the costs of care, and are favored by tissue hypoxia. A therapeutic strategy designed to detect and reverse tissue hypoxia, as diagnosed by an increase of oxygen extraction over a pre-defined threshold could decrease the incidence of organ failures.
