Objective: This study sought to define the correlation between the
occurrence of the complications and certain blood parameters in high
risk surgical patients who were monitored for 24 hours in the intensive
care unit postoperatively.
Method: Two hundred-fifty seven cases (126 females 131 males; mean
age 42.18±8.54 years; range 19-73 years) who were operated on in our
hospital and followed up in the intensive care unit for 24 hours were
included in this study. The files of all cases included demographic
characteristics, erythrocyte count (RBC), leukocyte count (WBC), platelet
count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), neutrophil, lymphocyte,
neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR),
serum blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine values. Group A
consisted of cases that did not develop complications in the first 24
hours, and group B consisted of cases that developed complications in
the first 24 hours postoperatively. The blood hemogram parameters RBC,
WBC, PLT, MPV, NLO, PLO, and the biochemistry parameters BUN and
creatinine were compared between the groups.
