SAMBA and CAS Webinar: Preoperative Evaluation and Criteria for Ambulatory Surgery

As the scope of ambulatory surgery continues to expand, careful preoperative evaluation and patient selection remain essential to ensure safe, high-quality care. This interactive session will review the latest evidence on patient selection for adult outpatient procedures, provide guidance on tailoring criteria to individual patient populations, and explore practical approaches to developing decision algorithms for high-risk cases. Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of how to apply evidence-based practices to optimize outcomes and improve efficiency in the ambulatory setting.

After attending this round, the participants will be able to: 

1. Discuss current evidence related to patient selection for adult outpatient surgery
2. Create customized patient selection criteria 
3. Create decision algorithms for high-risk patients
