Uyandırma Odasında Hasta Takibinde Modifiye Aldrete Skorlama Sistemi (MASS) ile Çalışmanın Postoperatif Komplikasyon Görülme Sıklığı Üzerine Etkisi: Retrospektif Çalışma.

Objective: This retrospective study aims to demonstrate whether using scoring systems effects postoperative complications of patients in the recovery room as well as its contribution to patients’ safety Method: We examined files of patients operated in our Hospital between 2010 and 2017. In the recovery room after anesthesia, complications developed in the recovery room and in the early period were recorded in patients who were followed up by the Modified Aldrete Scoring System (MASS) (MASG) and without using the scoring system (CG). We used Statistica 13.3 program for statistical analyses. Results: The duration of stay in the recovery room was longer in MASG than CG. The minor complication rate was close in both groups. In the control group , one patient had a cardiac arrest, as a major complication, which responded to cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Conclusions: We determined that more serious complication developed in patients for whom the scoring system was not used in the recovery room than patients followed up with the scoring system. Safety of patients during their transfer to the service depends on having an advanced infrastructure in anesthesia recovery rooms, employing trained health personnel and using algorithms such as MASS.
