Background: Perioperative death is one of the indicators of anesthetic patient safety. The perioperative death rate has dramatically declined with the modern anesthetic techniques and perioperative medicine. Objective: To study contributing factors, factors minimizing incidents, and suggested corrective strategies. Materials and Methods: The present study was part of the Perioperative and Anesthetic Adverse Events in Thailand (PAAd Thai) Study, focusing on the incidents of perioperative death within 24 hours. The perioperative incidents from 22 tertiary hospitals across Thailand were gathered monthly. Two senior anesthesiologists reviewed the reports. Any discrepancy was solved by discussion for a consensus. Results: Of the first 2,000 incident reports in the PAAd Thai Study, there were 404 (20.2%) incident reports of 24 hours perioperative death. Extreme age of less than one year in 6.2% and more than 80 years in 8.2%, with ASA physical status of 3 or more in 97% while 51.2% occurred in the age group between 20 to 64 years. General anesthesia was the main anesthetic technique among fatal cases in 94.1% of the cases. Ninety-one cases (22.5%) occurred in the operating theatre with anesthesiology team witness. The high-risk surgeries with fatal outcomes were general surgery in 46.2%, cardiac surgery in 12.5%, neurological surgery in 11.6%, and endoscopic procedure in 3.2%. Exsanguination in 52.7%, particularly after traffic accident was the major cause of death followed by cardiac factors in 27.2%, and sepsis in 23%. Intraoperative death had higher proportion of exsanguination at 72.5% than postoperative death at 43% (p<0.001). Postoperative death had higher proportion of sepsis-related death and brain death than intraoperative death at 27.5% versus 7.7% (p<0.001), and 20.8% versus 5.5% (p=0.001), respectively. The factor-related death included Patient in 97.8%, Surgical in 42.3%, Anesthetic in 19.3%, and Systematic factors in 31.4%. Fatal causes were considered as preventable in 28.7%, particularly by surgical safety checklist in 18.1%. Conclusion: The multicenter study revealed a high proportion of 24 hours. perioperative death was commonly caused by exsanguination. Postoperative death was related to patient condition. Suggested corrective strategies were quality assurance activity, improved supervision, additional training, ICU availability, and more guidelines and compliance to guidelines including surgical safety checklists.
