Abstract
The ASPAN National Standards state the need for identification and documentation of a patient's cardiac rhythm during Phase I care. The study was intended to support these Standards by validating that multiple types of dysrhythmias and cardiac events occur in a wide range of patients with varying surgical procedures, ages, genders, anesthetic types and ASA classifications. The study used a retrospective chart review of 507 ambulatory surgical patients. The initial results indicate that dysrythmias and cardiac events, most notably brady-and tachy-dysrhythmias were common (30.1% had some type of dysrhythmia/cardiac event).
