Abstract

At present, although the mortality of most patients undergoing major surgery is very low, the increase of so-called high-risk surgery patients with high risk of postoperative complications and death brings new challenges to perioperative safety management. The efficient collaboration of multidisciplinary professional teams based on patient-centered and value-based medicine is a new measure to ensure perioperative safety. Among them, the critical care medical professional team plays a key role in risk assessment, perioperative organ protection, close monitoring and specific early intervention for high-risk patients, so as to achieve timely prevention, early identification and effective treatment of postoperative complications, and to reduce the risk of death and improve the postoperative quality of life.

Key words： Critical care medicine; High risk surgery; Safety management
