Cohort study

Hip fracture surgery

The SAS was a noteworthy indicator for estimate the 30—days major surgical outcomes

real feedback data about post-surgery danger can be provided in the operating theatre using the SAS

SAS ≤ 4 (A)

• A: ICU length of stay

• postoperative bleeding

• cardiac arrest

• myocardial infarction

• deep venous thrombosis

• pulmonary embolism

• stroke

• unplanned intubation

• mechanical ventilation
