Surgery risk classes(ANSWER)Class 1: benefits outweigh risk, should be done
Class 2a: reasonable to perform
Class 2b: should be considered
Class 3: rarely appropriate
General rules for surgery: testing(ANSWER)ECG before surgery only if coronary disease, except when
low risk surgery
Stress test not indicated before surgery
Do not do prophylactic coronary revascularization
Meds before surgery(ANSWER)- Diabetic agents: Use insulin therapy to maintain glycemic goals(iii)
Discontinue biguanides, alpha glucosidase inhibitors, thiazolidinediones, sulfonylureas, and GLP-1
agonists
- Do not start aspirin before surgery
- Stop Warfarin 5 days before surgery. May be bridged with Lovenox.
- Do not stop statin before surgery

Assessment of surgical risk(ANSWER)- Unstable cardiac condition (recent MI, active angina, active HF,
uncontrolled HTN, severe valvular disease), concern with CAD, CHF. arrhythmia, CVD
- patient stable or unstable?
- urgency of the procedure (oncology will be time sensitive)
- risk of procedure

Lee's revised cardiac risk index(ANSWER)6 points:
High risk surgery = 1
CAD = 1
CHF = 1
Cerebrovascular disease = 1
DM 1 on insulin = 1
Creat greater than 2 = 1
1 = low risk
2 = moderate risk
3 = high risk
SCIP pre-operative infection measures(ANSWER)- Prophylactic antibiotics should be received within 1 h
prior to surgical incision
- be selected for activity against the most probable antimicrobial contaminants
- be discontinued within 24 h after the surgery end-time
Postoperative infection reduction methods(ANSWER)- pre-op hair removal (clippers)
