Preanesthesia Evaluation

The preanesthesia evaluation is the responsible clinical process of assessment that precedes surgery to provide the adequate medical care to patients before, during and after their surgical procedure. Preanesthesia evaluation considers patients’ medical records to determine their health condition.

The Anesthesiologist

The anesthesiologist is the physician specialized on the practice of anesthesiology, and the person dedicated to the relief of pain and care of the patient before, during and after surgery. The anesthesiologist is who observes the patient´s temperature, arterial tension, respiration, and other vital life functions in the perioperative phase.

A consultation with the anesthesiologist is arranged some days before surgery, to finally establish the patient´s health condition. Different preoperative test and evaluations may help the anesthesiologist to identify any disease or disorder that may affect the procedure, and help the medical team to formulate a specific plan to prevent and minimize any possible complication.
