Abstract

Purpose: The Perianesthesia Care Unit (PACU) performs rapid recovery for 60 to 100 patients a day. Due to the volume of patients, tracking outcomes and clinical events is important for allocation of staff. A tool was already in place to capture patient total time in recovery. This tool was revised to include a place to document post-operative clinical indicators, eliminating the need for an additional form. The PACU staff nurses use this form on each patient to identify any post-operative clinical events.
