Abstract

MultiMed is a telemedicine and tele-education project to extend access to a sophisticated medical simulation facility in Bristol. It will allow remote users to undertake simulated medical scenarios and to access a reference database, for a comprehensive remote learning experience. The first phase will focus on the area of anaesthesia and all remote users will be based in the UK.

[Preoperative examination: anamnesis and physical examination mandatory].

Preoperative assessment has been subject to discussion for many years. What should be done and by whom? Fortunately there is a general consensus that routine laboratory and function tests are not only of no benefit to the patient but are also wasteful of resources. The Preoperative Assessment Commission of the Dutch Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport, supports the initiative for preoperative assessment clinics run by anaesthesiologists. Yet in their advice, this Commission has proposed screening by means of an abridged questionnaire. Efforts to validate this questionnaire have demonstrated that in practice it was not helpful. Therefore it seems justified to conclude that preoperative screening should not fundamentally differ from that performed during a basic clinical examination.
