Risk Factors Associated with Post-operative Pulmonary Complications Preoperative • Asthma/ COPD • Recent respiratory infection • Smoking (> 20 pkyr) • Obstructive sleep apnea • General poor state of health • > 70 year old • Poor nutritional status Intraoperative • Upper abdominal / thoracic surgery • General anesthesia • Duration of anesthesia > 3 hour • Use of pancuronium Postoperative • Immobilization • Poor pain control #RiskFactors #pulmonary #complications #PACU #postoperative #anesthesiology #anesthesia #surgery #causes
