Perioperative Medicine

Perioperative medicine is a subspecialty of medicine that focuses on the care of patients during their preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative period. Its aim is to ensure the best possible patient outcome. It involves the integration of medical and surgical techniques, as well as anesthesia, to optimize a patient’s health prior to undergoing an operation. It also strives to minimize the postoperative risks associated during the entire perioperative period. Perioperative medicine plays an increasingly important role in modern surgical practice, and its use can help in reducing complications and improving overall outcomes.
