Importance of Pre-Surgery Evaluation
Pre-surgery test is not just routine paperwork. It is one of the most vital parts of ensuring that surgery is done in as safe a way as possible. There are many patients who might have some underlying problems such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart-related issues, breathing difficulties, reaction to medication, or past surgical concerns that should be examined in advance.
Through this assessment, patients also have an opportunity to discuss symptoms, medical history, allergies, medications and substances that may affect surgery or anesthesia.
The exam helps avoid wasting time or unforeseen complications since it detects areas that require consideration beforehand. At our clinic, we go through each clearance exam with utmost responsibility to ensure that patients are informed, supported and well prepared.
Tests Included in Pre-Operative Exams
Surgical Clearance Exam depend on the surgical procedure, age of the patient, surgical history, and the needs of the surgeon. The common pre-operative examination includes blood tests, ECG and health risk assessment. The required examinations are conducted effectively in our clinic and the process is both organized and patient-friendly.
Blood Tests
Pre-operative clearance often involves blood tests such as complete blood count. These blood tests can be used to estimate blood counts, blood sugar levels, kidney function levels, electrolytes, clotting, and more.
Blood work demonstrate some underlying concerns that might require attention prior to surgery and is useful information to both doctor/surgeon and the surgical team.
ECG and Medical Review
An ECG may be advised in many patients with a history of cardiac issues, age-related issues or other specific surgical needs. It is a test used to assess the rhythm of the heart and determine possible heart issues prior to surgery.
Provided with ECG testing, our doctors conduct an expert medical examination including recent medications, chronic illnesses, surgical history, and overall pre-packaged preparation to the intended procedure.

This gives us the opportunity to give you a fully informed Pre-Surgery Medical Evaluation and communicate effectively with your surgeon.
