AbstractOutpatient anaesthesia has increased considerably in recent years. More complex procedures are performed on an outpatient basis and patients suffer from more co-morbidities. A patient- and procedure-centred risk management system includes guidelines for patient-selection and -evaluation, selection of adequate anaesthetic drugs, structured post-anaesthesia care and discharge-procedures, and a critical incident management plan. Risk management for ambulatory anaesthesia is supposed to reduce malpractice and prevent complications. Ultimately, procedure related cost will decrease and confidence as well as satisfaction of patients, surgeons and anaesthesia team members will increase.© Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart · New York.
