Impact of Shorter Preoperative Fluid Fasting on Patient Outcomes: A Safe Brain Initiative Retrospective Cohort Analysis
Adherence to a short FFT could be increased over time; however, many patients still experienced an FFT that should be considered too long. Implementation of short FFT was linked to enhanced patient outcomes and more efficient healthcare resource utilization. These findings underscore the importance of optimizing preoperative fasting practices to improve patient care and healthcare efficiency.
