There is a concept of "surgical risk" for judging the degree of surgical danger. The changes occurring in the organism under the influence of surgical trauma are determined, on the one hand, by the traumatic nature of the operation, and, on the other hand, by the reliability of homeostasis regulation systems. Traumaticity is a variety of mechanical, chemical and other impacts on the body of the operated, which are directly proportional to the duration of surgical interventions, its scale and exposure areas. The reliability of homeostasis regulation systems consists of a large number of indicators, which are heterogeneous, and it is practically impossible to reduce them to a common denominator.
