Cutting Surgical Risk: Early Detection of Hidden Hyperglycemia and Anemia
Event: Cutting Surgical Risk: Early Detection of Hidden Hyperglycemia and Anemia
Thursday, February 12th 6:00 AM-7:30 AM PST Virtually.
CME may be provided upon approval*
Description: Join us for our Surgical Patient Optimization webinar series, co-hosted by the Bree Collaborative and the Surgical and Spine COAP. Throughout the series, we will explore key strategies to prepare patients for surgery and promote positive perioperative outcomes.
In this session, clinicians will dive into how unrecognized high blood sugar in non-diabetic patients and preoperative anemia can dramatically increase surgical risk—and what we can do about it. Participants will gain practical insights into identifying these often-overlooked risks and implementing evidence-based approaches to improve surgical safety and recovery.
Speakers:
- Nicholas J. Kassebaum, MD- Medical Director of SCOAP/Spine COAP
- E. Patchen Dellinger, MD- Professor Emeritus, University of Washington, Department of Surgery
- More speakers to be announced
We intend to record this event. The event recording will be accessible on our website.
