Pre Operation
What is a pre op for surgery?
Before your surgery, you will be required to undergo a pre-operative assessment, often with a doctor. This assessment entails a hospital visit where various tests, such as chest X-rays, blood and urine samples, as well as heart and lung tests, may be conducted.
What is the procedure for pre op?
Patients are typically brought to a designated area prior to surgery. An intravenous line (IV) is initiated at this stage if the patient doesn’t already have one. If necessary, a sedative may be administered through the IV to assist the patient in relaxing.
If the procedure is planned for 1 day-case procedures and expected support by anesthesia:
- Obtain information about sedo-analgesia or monitored anesthesia from your surgeon or anesthetist, including details on the application and associated costs.
- Complete a pre-procedure form (add this document*).
- Undergo pre-surgery preparations, including changing clothes and vessel line placement, by the nurse or anesthesia technician.
- Rest for 2 hours in the emergency area following the procedure.
- Abstain from eating or drinking for at least 4 hours post-procedure, unless otherwise advised by your doctor. Also, refrain from driving or working during this period.
- Familiarize yourself with the contact person for assistance at home during the post-procedural duration.
- Stay with a relative at home on the day of the post-procedure.
- If the planned procedure is part of a package program requiring general or regional anesthesia, schedule a free anesthesia consultation ideally at least one day before surgery.
General knowledge related to the preparation for your procedure and what to bring with you;
- Adhere to fasting guidelines, starting at midnight for morning surgery or 6 hours before an afternoon appointment to avoid cancellation.
- If your stomach contains food or fluids during surgery, there is a risk of vomiting under anesthesia. The interplay of anesthesia, inducing muscle paralysis, and intubation increases the potential for inhaling vomit into the lungs.
- Maintain personal hygiene by taking a bath the night before surgery and shaving the operation area if recommended.
- Quit smoking and abstain from alcohol 24 hours before the procedure for better surgical outcomes.
- Be cautious with specific medications; seek guidance from your doctors, especially regarding anti-diabetic, anti-hypertensive, and cardiac drugs.
- Remove all jewellery and removable items, entrusting them to your relatives.
- Prioritize safety by avoiding nail polish, false nails, and high-heeled shoes to prevent instability after the procedure.
- Familiarize yourself with available services, such as special nursing care, room options, and preparation procedures.
- Arrive early on the day of the operation (around 8 or 8:30 am) and seek assistance from receptionists for any hospitalization needs.
