2025 Perioperative Essentials for Today's Hospitalist

April 22, 2025

Over the past many years, hospitalists have been at the forefront of peri-operative medical care for surgical patients. In this role, they are required to provide both evidence-based and efficient care that translates not only to good clinical care but also helps their health system in improving patient outcomes.

This course will be tailored towards inpatient comprehensive pre-operative assessment and will provide key concepts in risk mitigation and management of common post-operative medical complications. The course will cover essential topics of cardiac, pulmonary, and endocrine diseases like diabetes and provide in-depth discussion on medication management with a focus on perioperative anticoagulation management. As a highlight, faculty will engage in an insightful case-based discussion during breakout sessions.
