PY - 2017 T2 - Principles and Practice of Hospital Medicine, 2e AB - Perioperative bleeding is a dreaded surgical complication. More often than not you will hear, “It was dry when we closed…” as your surgical colleagues struggle to identify the source. Hospitalists are often involved in managing patients before and after surgery, hence they need a good working knowledge of how to predict, evaluate, and manage perioperative bleeding. This chapter will focus on the preoperative evaluation of bleeding risk, intraoperative risk factors for bleeding, typical presentations of postoperative bleeding, and how a hospitalist needs to evaluate and manage the bleeding.
