Filter by:The present multicentre retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the association between intraoperative administration of dexmedetomidine and postoperative mortality in hospitals. The investigators set out to test the hypothesis that perioperative dexmedetomidine use, as an adjunct to general anesthesia, diminishes postoperative mortality in hospitals across all categories of surgical patients.
Retrospective, multicenter, French cohort study. Data from patients over 75 years of age who visited the emergency department on 12 and 13 December 2022 could be collected until their discharge from hospital and for a maximum of 30 days. Data from patients who spent the night on a stretcher (stretcher group) as well as from a group of patients who spent the night in a bed (hospital bed group) after a visit to the emergency department will be collected. The characteristics of the patients and their stay in the emergency room will be collected, and their hospital stay (truncated at 30 days) will be analyzed in terms of morbidity and mortality. Main objective: To study the truncated 30-day in-hospital mortality of patients who spent a night on a stretcher in the emergency department. Secondary objectives: To describe the characteristics and hospital stay of patients who spent a night on a stretcher To compare the morbidity and mortality of patients who spent the night on a stretcher with patients who spent the night in an inpatient bed after an emergency visit;
