Brief Summary

Worldwide, about 400 million major surgeries are performed annually. The scarce data available in the literature still suggest high postoperative morbidity and mortality, even in Europe. Data of the World Health Organization on causes of death suggest that death after surgery would be the number three cause of mortality if it were considered a separate cause of death. However, there is little structured or high-quality data on postoperative mortality in the literature. The aim of this study project is to collect data on postoperative complications and mortalities worldwide and to establish a Perioperative Outcome Study Platform on this topic. In the first study of this platform, we aim to investigate the association of hemodynamic characteristics with postoperative complications and mortality. It is a prospective, multi-center study. In addition, the investigators aim to collect data on the structural characteristics of the study sites and, for each patient, characteristics of quality of perioperative care in order to analyze associations with hemodynamic characteristics and postoperative complications and mortalities.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Incidence of postoperative complications

    The postoperative complications are graded according to the CLAVIEN-DINDO classification

    From the time of surgery up to hospital discharge or up to the 30th postoperative day

  • Incidence of postoperative mortalities

    The incidence of postoperative mortality during the follow-up period

    From the time of surgery up to one year after surgery, during hospital stay, at three, six, or twelve months after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Implementation rate of preoperative factors impacting postoperative outcome

    During the 48 hours prior to surgery

  • Intraoperative hemodynamic characteristics

    Time period during surgery

  • Postoperative haemodynamic characteristics

    Time period from the end of surgery up to the third postoperative day

  • Co-morbidities of patients

    At the day of surgery

  • Transfusion of blood components and administration of coagulation factors

    During hospital stay or up to the 30th postoperative day

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

The decision as to whether a surgical procedure has an increased risk of postoperative complications and/or postoperative mortality is the responsibility of the study leader at the respective study site. The list of surgical procedures will be agreed between the study site and the head of the study. The presence or absence of co-morbidities is not included in the assessment of perioperative risk.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients undergoing elective surgery with increased postoperative morbidity and/or increased postoperative mortality

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients undergoing surgery in the field of obstetrics
  • Age \< 18 years
  • Lack of written informed consent
  • Lack of language understanding
  • Unwillingness to store disease data on site and share anonymised data as part of the clinical trial
