19. II. Risk AssessmentII. Risk Assessment
Components for evaluating perioperative risk:
• Patient's medical condition preoperatively
• Type or extent of the surgical procedure
• Risk from the anesthetic
““Most of the work, however, addresses the operative riskMost of the work, however, addresses the operative risk

21. III. Preoperative PreparationIII. Preoperative Preparation
Anesthetic indications:
Anxiolysis, sedation and amnesia. e.g.
benzodiazepine(diazepam ,lorazepam)
Analgesia e.g. narcotics
Drying of airway secretions e.g. atropine, glycopyrrolate
Reduction of anesthetic requirements ,
Facilitation of smooth induction
Patients at risk for GE reflux : ranitidine ,metoclopramide ,
sodium citrate
22. Preoperative preparationsPreoperative preparations
Surgical indications:
- Antibiotic prophylaxis for infective endocarditis.
- Prophylaxis against DVT for high risk patients :
low-dose heparin or aspirin, intermittent calf
compression, or warfarin
23. Preoperative preparationsPreoperative preparations
Co-existing Disease indications:
• Some medications should be continued on the
day of surgery e,g Beta -blockers, thyroxine, anti
hypertensive, nitrates ,antiepileptic,
bronchodilators
• Others are stopped e.g oral hypoglycemics,
Tricyclic ani depressant inhibitors and MAO
inhibitors
• Steroids within the last six months may require
supplemental steroids

25. IV. Plan of Anesthetic TechniqueIV. Plan of Anesthetic Technique
1. Is the patient's condition optimal?
2. Are there any problems which require consultation or
special tests? “Please assess and advise “
3. Is there an alternative procedure which may be more
appropriate?
4. What are the plans for postoperative management of the
patient?
5. What premedication if any is appropriate?
26. Finally, we plan our anesthetic technique :
1.Local
2. Regional anesthesia
2. General anesthesia
3. Combination
30. “The surgeon should not demand or insist on a
particular technique or the capability of the
anaesthesiologist to manage the particular
technique” – John Alfred Lee

ambulatory surgical patient: does it
really help?

D J Clin Anesth. 1992 May-Jun; 4(3):204-7.
33. RecommendationsRecommendations
ASA Task Force has recommended that
preanaesthesia evaluations should be
performed prior to the day of surgery for
patients with high severity of disease and/or
undergoing procedures of high surgical
invasiveness

preoperative testingpreoperative testing
60–75% of preoperative tests ordered are
medically unnecessary.

36. •Existing literature suggests that 30-60% of abnormalities
discovered on routine preoperative tests are ignored.
Roizen MF. More preoperative assessment by physicians
and less by laboratory tests. N Engl J Med 2000;342:204-
205.
•Given this fact, routine preoperative testing without
documentation of abnormalities actually may lead to more
medico-legal risk.
•In general, it is safe to use test results that were performed
and were normal within the previous four months, given that
no change has occurred in the patient's clinical status.
•One study reported that only 0.4% of such tests repeated at
the time of surgery were abnormal and could have been
predicted by the patient's history.
