Perioperative serum lactate as a predictor of post-operative length of hospital stay and in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing major emergency abdominal surgeries

Perioperative serum lactate as a predictor of post-operative length of hospital stay and in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing major emergency abdominal surgeries

Background: Major surgeries can develop metabolic acidosis during the perioperative period. Any clinical condition leading to decreased tissue oxygenation causes lactate levels to rise proportionally. Aims and Objectives: This study was aimed at evaluating perioperative serum lactate as a predict...
