Hi Friends! Here in episode FIVE (we made it) I teach you about all things related to making a pre-operative risk assessment. This includes going through the ASA classification system, the Revised Cardiac Risk Index, and how a risk assessment fits into the overall practice of a pre-operative evaluation of a patient. The accurate and thorough risk assessment is all important to keeping your patients safe in surgery. 

Hope you are all having a lovely day!
