NCT ID NCT06013891

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study followed 240 high-risk surgery patients to see if problems in the recovery room (PACU) are linked to complications in the first 72 hours after leaving. Researchers tracked vital signs and medical events, and also asked nurses to assess risk. The goal is to find early warning signs that could improve patient monitoring and safety.
