Background: Today, surgery can help prevent many deaths and reduce unpleasant complications of illness; however, it may expose the patient to further risks and complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of post - anesthesia complications in the recovery unit of the 9 - day medical education hospital of Torbat - e - Heydariyeh. Methods: This cross - sectional study was performed on 268 patients who underwent surgery in the 9 - day medical education hospital of Torbat - e - Heydariyeh in 2016. A checklist with verified validity that has been used to collect information, contains section 1: patient demographic information and section 2: post - anesthetic complications. After performing any surgery, the checklist was completed by the anesthetist in the recovery unit. After collecting the data, the data analysis of descriptive statistics and Fisher’s exact and Chi - square tests were analyzed with SPSS 20 software. Results: Of the 268 patients examined in this study, 159 patient (59.3%) were female and 109 (40.7%) were male. In this study of postoperative complications in the recovery unit, 93 patients (34.7%) suffered from cardiovascular complications, 29 (10.8%) from respiratory, and 128 (47.7%) from neurological. Hypothermia and shivering with 60 (22.4%) and nausea and vomiting with 7 (6.2%) were the highest and least frequency. Conclusions: Since incidence of postoperative complications seem to be high in the post - anesthetic care unit, several scientific studies are recommended and use of modern surgical procedure, anesthetics, and monitoring to prevent, detect, and control these complications in prenatal groups seems essential.
