Next Episode: Surgical Approach

I review what I double check the day before: labs, deformity, X-rays, implants and other things such as MRSA status, pacemakers or DBS.  In the room I review my set up including the bed, lights, tourniquet and leg positioner.  Review the plan with anesthesia regarding pain management.  And sign your surgical site!
