Hello: What comorbidities or other risk factors are considered moderate risk factors for minor surgery? Use of anticoagulants is one, for example. What are some others?
How about a patient underage 12 for tonsillectomy with general anesthesia?
Also with General Anesthesia: Surgery planned for a long time smoker?
COPD, heart disease, kidney disease, clotting disorders?
Obstructive sleep apnea with general anesthesia?
Surgery for an elderly patient with general anesthesia?
Some examples would be very helpful.
thank you
