The Bern Perioperative Biobank (BPBB)

November 14, 2022 updated by: University Hospital Inselspital, Berne

The Bern Perioperative Biobank to Define Perioperative Changes of Molecular Markers of Perioperative Organo-dysfunctions, Inflammation, Adverse Events and Disease Progression

The goal of the research is to define clinically relevant molecular markers for increased risk of peri-/ postoperative organo-dysfunctions, inflammation, adverse events and disease progression. To better understand the perioperative impact the investigators aim to determine perioperative levels of molecular markers over time in the available samples and clinical data of the Bern perioperative Biobank (BPBB) cohort to finally increase quality of perioperative care of patients by permitting preventive measures to be taken early in patients at risk.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessing the change of the metabolic profile in the perioperative setting
Time Frame: Before induction of anesthesia as baseline
Surgery causes significant disruption of physiologic metabolism. The investigators currently lack specific markers to assess change of the metabolic profile in the perioperative setting. The investigators aim to identify metabolic markers and their change in the perioperative period in association with patients' clinical outcome.

Assessing the change of the metabolic profile in the perioperative setting
Time Frame: Ca. 2-5hours later upon finishing the surgery
