Abstract

Shoemaker et al. [1] were the first to describe the concept of oxygen debt during major surgical procedures and to demonstrate that perioperative hemodynamic optimization has the potential to improve postoperative outcome. Since then, at least 26 other randomized controlled trials (RCTs) [2–27] have shown that perioperative optimization of stroke volume, cardiac output and/or oxygen delivery (DO2) decreases postoperative morbidity and/or mortality in patients undergoing medium-to-high risk surgery (Table 1).
