Abstract

Background:Pre-operative evaluation of elective cardiovascular (CV) surgery patients is limited by varying electronic health records and primary care physician adherence to guideline recommendations. A standardized pre-operative evaluation protocol may optimize medical management prior to elective surgery and reduce common post-operative complications, such as atrial fibrillation (AF), which is associated with increased adverse events and length of stay (LOS).
