    Abstract

    Neurosurgical procedures carry inherent risks of postoperative complications, which can have a profound impact on patient outcomes. Understanding the prevalence and identifying risk factors for these complications is crucial for improving surgical strategies and patient care. Objective: This cross-sectional analysis aimed to determine the prevalence of postoperative complications in neurosurgical patients and investigate potential risk factors associated with these complications. Methods: A sample of 200 neurosurgical patients who underwent various procedures at a tertiary care hospital was included in this study. Comprehensive clinical data, including patient demographics, medical history, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes, were collected and analyzed. Results: We conducted a comprehensive analysis to investigate the prevalence of postoperative complications within the neurosurgical patient cohort. Additionally, we examined potential risk factors, including age, comorbidities, surgical approach, and perioperative management. To establish the relationships between these factors and the occurrence of complications, we utilized various statistical methods, including logistic regression. Conclusion: This study sheds light on the prevalence and risk factors of postoperative complications in neurosurgical patients, providing valuable insights for healthcare professionals and researchers. Identifying modifiable risk factors can guide the development of strategies to reduce complication rates and improve the overall quality of care for neurosurgical patients
