[Complications and emergencies in the recovery room]. Anaesthesist. 2021 Jan 14;: Authors: Hausknecht N, Berwanger U, Conrad D, Kleinschmidt S, Armbruster W Abstract The recovery room as a central monitoring unit plays a crucial role in the perioperative care of patients. Here, the patient is monitored until the subsequent transfer to a further care ward; however, due to the previous anesthesia and surgery the recovery room also provides a high risk for (the development of) complications. The present article provides an overview of the most frequent complications to be expected in the recovery room (in adults), the diagnostics and the acute treatment.
