A simple definition of perioperative medicine
• Anaesthesia is safely and humanely keeping the patient still for the surgery
• Perioperative medicine is every thing else that you do
The Past: 1944
The Lancet 1944
• “Anaesthetist should help bridge the gulf between the physiologists and pharmacologist and the clinician”
• “They must bestir themselves now, go into the wards, and take their share of preoperative and postoperative treatment of patients”
• “If they can show that their efforts are of value they will be welcomed, and recognition will certainly follow”
The Anaesthetist and Care of the
Surgical Case John BeardAnaesthesia 1946: 1; 25-35 and 2; 28-32
• Preop: Exercise, Nutrition, Haemaglobin• Postop: Oxygen, Fluids, Fluid balance chart, Keep
warm, Thromboembolism• “At the onset of his career the attention of the
anaesthetist is focussed almost entirely on the actual administration of anaesthesia during the operation”
• “A prophylactic attitude can do much to prevent or minimise complications”
• “Application by the anaesthetist of a special knowledge of postoperative complications should benefit the patient”
The Anaesthetic Out-Patient Clinic J
Alfred LeeAnaesthesia 1949; 4: 169-174
• “A patient should be asked to stop smoking 3 to 4 weeks before an operation…to tell him to stop smoking a day or two before his operation is both psychologically cruel and therapeutically futile”
• “the breath-holding test of Sebrasez in which the patient is timed while he holds his breath after full inspiration … less than 25 seconds shows that the cardio-respiratory function is poor”
The Present 2015
Present Perioperative Medicine
• Pre assessment clinics
• Allergy clinics
• High risk surgery clinics
• Day surgery
• Acute pain
• PACU and HDU
• And more
The Future
?
Predicting the future
4 days after predicting he would be in post for 4 more years …
It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future
Niels Bohr Nobel Prize for Physics 1922
You cannot predict the future, but you can create it
Dennis Gabor Nobel Prize for Physics 1971
The SimpsonsPredicting or creating the future
Creating the future of orthopaedic perioperative medicine?
• Aging population and the cost and volume of health care
• Training
• Clinical management
• Outcome data
• Shared decision making and high risk patients
• Post operative level 1.5 care
Aging population and the cost and volume of health care
UK 2002 Primary THR 50,000, TKR 50,000
UK 2012 Primary THR 75,000, TKR 70, 000
UK 2012 Rev THR 5,000, Rev TKR 2,500
UK by 2030 15.3 million will be over 65
90 day mortality after THR <65 yr male 0.1%
90 day mortality after THR >80 yr male 1.9%

Post operative level 1.5 care
• Ward HDU Level 1
• Critical care HDU Level 2
• PACU
• Level 1.5 the new enhanced recovery?
