Synopsis
The management of many common medical/systemic diseases has changed in the last five years in part due to the increased sophistication of diagnostic studies, in part as the result of new medications, but, most importantly, as the result of the significant effort to incorporate evidence based medicine into the everyday management of patients. Using case based scenarios with audience participation, the current guidelines and recommendations for the safe and effective management of surgical patients, both in the office and the hospital setting will be discussed.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this presentation, participants should be able to:
- Discuss currently understood guidelines and recommendations for the safe and effective management of surgical patients with significant systemic disease;
- Incorporate new evidence based medical management guidelines into the management of patients undergoing office based or hospital surgery; and
- Describe new medications being used to manage common medical conditions including coronary vessel disease, hypertension, diabetes, bleeding problems, immune system deficiencies and patient receiving psychotropic medications.
