NCT04188093

Brief Summary

In the Postoperative Care Unit surgical patients are monitored closely to ensure safe condition before transfer to the ward. This study will aim to identify patients in risk of complications on the ward using the national postanesthesia care unit (PACU) discharge criteria, a modified Aldretes score. Secondary to identify patients in risk of micro events as detected by continuous monitoring of vital signs on the ward.
