Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Intraoperative Complications
Complications that affect patients during surgery. They may or may not be associated with the disease for which the surgery is done, or within the same surgical procedure.
Hemodilution
Reduction of blood viscosity usually by the addition of cell free solutions. Used clinically (1) in states of impaired microcirculation, (2) for replacement of intraoperative blood loss without homologous blood transfusion, and (3) in cardiopulmonary bypass and hypothermia.
Perioperative Nursing
Nursing care of the surgical patient before, during, and after surgery.
Perioperative Care
Interventions to provide care prior to, during, and immediately after surgery.
Intraoperative Care
Patient care procedures performed during the operation that are ancillary to the actual surgery. It includes monitoring, fluid therapy, medication, transfusion, anesthesia, radiography, and laboratory tests.

Unintended perioperative hypothermia.
Hypothermia, defined as a core body temperature less than 36°C (96.8°F), is a relatively common occurrence in the unwarmed surgical patient. A mild degree of perioperative hypothermia can be associa...
Prognostic Significance of Splenectomy as Part of Initial Cytoreductive Surgery in Ovarian Cancer.
PURPOSE: We sought to examine how splenectomy as part of up-front cytoreductive surgery in ovarian cancer influences the postoperative course and affects survival. METHODS: We reviewed cases of ovaria...
