Researchers are studying the presence and types of other health conditions in patients having abdominal surgery to better understand and categorize the risk of complications after surgery. The goal is to identify which existing diseases independently predict such risks, as this knowledge is important for informed consent and planning preventive care. The study focuses on adults with certain physical health statuses undergoing planned operations, noting that while anesthesia risks have decreased, complications remain a significant concern worldwide. The study collects detailed information before surgery about patient age, gender, physical status (ASA classification), various chronic diseases like heart, lung, kidney, neurological disorders, and diabetes, as well as treatments the patient is receiving. It also records the type and severity of different abdominal surgeries and anesthesia methods used. Data is gathered uniformly from multiple centers and entered into an electronic database. The study includes patients operated on within defined days and monitors them until hospital discharge. Participants will have their health and surgical data collected and tracked, including cognitive function, respiratory and cardiac risk scales, and kidney and liver function. Postoperative complications occurring within 7 days of surgery are the main outcomes measured. The study plans to enroll a large number of patients to develop reliable risk prediction models, with ongoing data analysis using statistical methods to identify significant predictors. Results will be validated with additional patient groups to improve accuracy and clinical usefulness.
