What this trial studies
NewAnescat 2024 is an observational registry that collects detailed information on the activity of anaesthesiologists across all areas where they provide care during a 14-day window. Data are gathered through a set of questionnaires capturing every instance of anaesthesia-related involvement over a 24-hour period across the two-week sampling frame. All patients cared for by anaesthesiology teams during that period are included without clinical exclusion criteria. The dataset will be used to compare current activity and resource use with the baseline captured in 2003 to inform workforce and resource planning.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Patients who receive any form of anaesthesia care at participating hospitals during the defined 14-day data-collection period are included.
Not a fit: Patients who do not receive anaesthesia care or who are treated outside the participating hospitals or outside the 14-day window are unlikely to benefit directly from this registry.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could lead to better staffing and resource planning for anaesthesia services, which may reduce delays and improve patient safety.
How similar studies have performed: A similar national record (ANESCAT 2003) was created 20 years ago and provided a useful baseline, but comprehensive updates like this are relatively uncommon.
Eligibility criteria
Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
The activity of all the areas in which the anaesthesiologist has some kind of work involvement over 24 hours during 14 days in a year is included through several questionnaires with different formats. Therefore all patients will be included without restriction criteria.
