Surgical Infections, 2006
Fever is common in surgical patients. The list of potential causes is long and includes many noninfective etiologies.Only about 40% of fever episodes in hospitalized patients are caused by infection. Any fever in a surgical patient is a cause for concern.

Delirium is a global impairment of upper brain functions caused by an organic substrate. It is frequently observed in the postoperative period, particularly in elderly people. Vascular and orthopedic surgery and long-duration surgery are associated with a higher incidence of postoperative delirium.

Postoperative atelectasis is a common problem following any surgery. Limited atelectasis is usually well-tolerated and easily reversible. However, complete atelectasis of the remaining lung following partial lung resection may be poorly tolerated.

Postoperative arrhythmia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery for congenital heart disease. Rhythm disturbances that may be well tolerated in a normal heart often cause hemodynamic instability when they occur in the immediate postoperative period.

AbstractTreatment of postoperative pain has not received sufficient attention by the surgical profession. Recent developments concerned with acute pain physiology and improved techniques for postoperative pain relief should result in more satisfactory treatment of postoperative pain.

Jaundice in the postoperative patient is a common complication of surgery that may be a confusing and potentially serious problem. The surgical patient is subjected to a variety of stresses, such as hypotension, infection, drugs, and anesthetic agents, many of which are potentially hepatotoxic.

Thoracic surgical patients are susceptible to pneumonia because of impaired systemic and lung host defenses. The incidence of pneumonia is higher with more extensive lung resections. Current prophylactic antibiotic therapy is based primarily on general surgical experience with emphasis on wound infection, not pneumonia.

Confusion is a terrible feeling, a feeling of being lost in the most basic sense. The markers, maps, cues, and senses used to orient oneself to the immediate environment are not recognizable. This applies to what one sees, hears, and feels. The person searches for something that makes sense, that he or she can anchor thoughts or actions to. Sitting up,

Postoperative Complications and Postoperative Care
1988Relatively few postoperative complications are due to errors in operating technique. Other factors are far more important such as the nature and complications of the underlying disease, the extent of the operative procedure, coexisting diseases, general health, age, etc.

When an apparently favorable postoperative course is suddenly complicated by intestinal obstruction intussusception must be considered as the most likely cause. Four cases of intussusception after genitourinary operations are presented.
