Core Tip
Core Tip: Intraoperative hyperlactatemia often affects circulatory stability and vital organ function, posing serious prognostic risks. Cases wherein circulatory stability and recovery quality are unaffected are rarely reported. We consider that aggressive intraoperative rehydration avoids serious harm to the organism caused by hyperlactatemia due to insufficient tissue perfusion. Enhanced thermoprotection also improved lactate circulation. There may be individual differences in metabolism and lactate may have a slow clearance profile. The impact on circulation and quality of awakening was mild. Awakening extubation can be performed to reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation and risk of delayed extubation, and to shorten the hospital stay.
