Pre-Surgical Clearance

Overview

Pre-surgical (pre-operative) clearance is a medical evaluation your surgeon or hospital requires before an upcoming procedure to make sure you can safely undergo anesthesia and surgery. Clindle completes pre-surgical clearance over a video visit — we review your history and medications, document a focused exam, order or review the labs and ECG your surgical team requests (CBC, BMP, coagulation, A1c, urine), risk-stratify cardiac and pulmonary status, and send the signed clearance letter to your surgeon's office. Higher-risk patients (active cardiac disease, recent stents, severe lung disease) are referred to cardiology or anesthesia.
