Analysis of Perioperative Patient Adverse Event Reports and Anesthesia Safety Management in an Anesthesia Department of a Tertiary A Hospital in 2019-2020

Objective: To analyze the characteristics of anesthesia adverse events in our department and propose measures for anesthesia safety management, to achieve better improvement of medical quality and promote medical safety. Methods: A total of 589 cases of anesthesia adverse events were collated and analyzed, including the time period of anesthesia adverse events and ASA (American Society of Aneshesiologists) classification of anesthesia adverse events. Results: The anesthesia induction and awakening periods were the main time periods for the occurrence of anesthesia adverse events, other human factors were the main reasons for the occurrence of anesthesia adverse events, and ASA grading II and III surgical patients accounted for the main proportion (mainly because of the heavy proportion of II and III surgical patients). Conclusion: Understanding the causes of adverse anesthesia events and implementing strict anesthesia safety management measures are conducive to reducing the occurrence of adverse anesthesia events and improving the safety of anesthesia.
