Notes
  • ARISCAT was derived from data using surgeries requiring general, neuraxial, and/or regional (plexus block) anesthesia with an expected hospital stay.[1] Obstetric surgeries, transplant surgeries, surgeries requiring local/peripheral nerve blocks only, and outpatient surgeries were excluded from the analysis.
  • ARISCAT: Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia.
