PY - 2012 T2 - Principles and Practice of Hospital Medicine AB - There are many postoperative complications related to particular procedures that are beyond the scope of this text. Hospitalists caring for surgical patients should have an understanding of what surgical procedure was performed, the indication for that operation, and what perioperative concerns the operating surgeon has based on the circumstances of that particular patient or procedure. This should be part of the communication between the surgical and hospitalist staff. Here we will consider complications that are commonly associated with all surgical procedures.
