Key result
A program of fluid therapy for elective surgery in aortoiliac occlusive disease reduced overall mortality from 7% in the first 100 cases to 0.5% in the subsequent 200 cases.

Does a program of fluid therapy reduce mortality and complications in patients undergoing surgery of the abdominal aorta?
Absolute Event Rate: 0.5% vs 7%
A specific program of fluid therapy may significantly reduce mortality and complications such as shock and renal insufficiency during abdominal aortic surgery.
Wheeler et al. (1966) conducted an observational in Surgery of the abdominal aorta. Program of fluid therapy vs. Standard or prior fluid management was evaluated on Overall mortality. A program of fluid therapy for elective surgery in aortoiliac occlusive disease reduced overall mortality from 7% in the first 100 cases to 0.5% in the subsequent 200 cases.
