What did the #NAP7 activity survey show?
@adk300 takes us through the data:
-89% of cases occur during weekdays
-only 4% of elective workload undertaken at the weekend
-relative fewer patients at the extremes of age, who are usually higher risk
-minimum monitoring standards from @Assoc_Anaes less well followed during procedural sedation and transfers to PACU/ICU
-median age of surgical patients has increased by 2.3 years
-rates of BMI >30 and >35 much higher in NAP7 than previous NAPs. More so in the obstetric population.
-less patients are now ASA grade 1, with increases in numbers of ASA grade 2, 3 and 4 grade patients.
-TIVA use has increased 3-fold in 5 years, and pEEG has increased too
-circulation complications most prevalent > airway > breathing/metabolic
-severe hypotension the most common complication (117 in 10,000), but complications more generally common in emergency cases
-these data have enormous implications for what we can and what we should tell patients

I’ve decided to sell my pride and joy to raise money for @PSCSupportUK . I’m open to (sensible) offers and will sell to the highest bidder by 8pm on Friday. Drop me a DM if interested. Every penny will go to the charity. We need a cure for this horrible illness. RTs appreciated – at North East, England
