Incidence of postoperative complications after outpatient surgery
Conditions
Interventions
Group 1: The c-med° alpha is available in three sizes. To determine the optimum size, the perfusion index and quality index are measured in the ear canal with each sensor size (S/M/L) after successful

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint is an intra-individual increase in the Early Warning Score (EWS) = 1 between pre-operative and post-operative measurement of the parameters temperature, pulse and respiratory rate or SpO2. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary endpoints are - the incidence of critical events in the individual domains of the EMS - the cumulative times without recognisable artefacts - the cumulative times with a quality index > 30 of the c-med° alpha - the subjective wearing comfort by means of a questionnaire | — |
