Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and usefulness of the current practice of various examinations ordered by anesthesiologists during the pre-anesthetic evaluation in patients who are intended for elective surgery in our hospital. We will also evaluate the effect of delay & its value to predict postoperative complications.


Description:

For each preoperative requested test, we will determine whether the test is indicated based on the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines and whether it was effective for adverse effects management or unnecessarily requested. An adherent test was defined as a test that followed NICE, while a non-adherent test was defined as a test that included an over or under test. Normal test results are based on the laboratory reference range of normal values.

The anesthesiologist, whom is in charge of preoperative assessment at each unit, will assess patients who are scheduled for elective surgery, and will inform senior anesthesiologists with a minimum 3 years of experience. preoperative investigations will be divided into: First part will be on patient's gender, ASA classification, medical history and examination. Second part will be on Grade of surgery - Minor/ Intermediate/ Major or complex.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Percentage of adherence test to NiCE-UK guidelines The degree of adherence of the current practices of our institute preoperative testing to the NICE-UK guidelines determined as a percentage 24 hours
Secondary Percentage of overdone investigations •The percentage of "overdone" (unnecessary) investigations not recommended by the NICE guidelines which resulted in operative delay & prolonged hospital stay 24 hours
Secondary Estimated cost of overdone investigations • To assess the impact of requested non recommended investigations by NICE guidelines for preoperative testing on hospital resources (Ordering further investigation - Ordering elective ICU - Increasing hospital stay days) 1 month
