Postoperative Hypoxia
Conditions
Brief summary
A prospective cohort pilot study of non-cardiac patients to determine the feasibility of recruiting 150 patients to undergo postoperative continuous hemodynamic monitoring for up to 3 days.
Detailed description
Patient will start wearing the Philips' hemodynamic and ECG monitor in the Post Anaesthesia Care Unit (PACU). This device will continuously measure heart rate, pulse oxymetry, and ST-segments. The device will measure blood pressure every hour from 7 am to 10 pm and every 2 hours from 10 pm to 7 am. Patients will have postoperative Troponin I monitoring and telephone follow-up at 30 days postop.
