Ensuring the Best Outcomes for Pelvic Plasty Patients: The Role of Pre-Operative Tests

 

At Curva Connect, we are committed to providing the highest quality care for all our

clients and patients. It goes same for all of our partner hospitals.

Yonsei Baro Chuk Hospital, one of Curva Connect’s partner hospitals, boasts the state-of-the-art facility is equipped with cutting edge diagnostic tools, including CT, MRI, and X-ray rooms, which enable them to deliver precise and effective treatments. 

For patients undergoing pelvic plasty, the comprehensive pre-operative testing protocol is crucial in developing individualized surgical plans, ensuring the best possible outcomes.

The Importance of Pre-Operative Testing

Pre-operative testing is a crucial step in the surgical process. It helps our skilled surgeons gather essential information about a patients health and the specific details of their condition. This information is used to create a tailored surgical plan that addresses 

the unique needs of each patient. 

Here's an overview of the key tests performed and their significance:

X-Ray

X-rays provide detailed images of bones and other structures within the body. 

For pelvic plasty patients, X-rays are vital in assessing bone alignment and detecting 

any abnormalities in the pelvic area that may affect surgery. 

These images help surgeons plan the precise adjustments needed to achieve 

the desired outcome.

CT Scan

CT (Computed Tomography) scans offer detailed cross-sectional images of the pelvic

area. This advanced imaging technique is crucial for planning the surgical procedure,

allowing the surgeon to visualize the exact structure of the pelvis. 

By understanding the intricate details of the patient's anatomy, 

the surgeon can tailor the surgical approach to ensure optimal results.

ECG/EKG

(Source: Mayo Clinic)

Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) measures the electrical activity of the heart. This test is essential for identifying any cardiac problems that could pose risks during surgery.

Ensuring a stable cardiac status is crucial for the safety of the patient, particularly under

anesthesia. An abnormal ECG may prompt further evaluation or modification of the

surgical plan to mitigate risks.

Blood Tests

Blood tests evaluate overall health and detect any underlying conditions such as anemia, infections, or clotting issues. This information is crucial for ensuring the patient's readiness for surgery and for planning anesthesia. 

For instance, detecting anemia might lead to pre-surgical treatment to optimize the patient's condition before the procedure.

Urine Analysis

Urine analysis screens for kidney function and detects any infections or metabolic issues. 

A healthy urinary system is vital for surgical recovery and for minimizing complications during the procedure. Identifying and addressing any  urinary issues beforehand helps ensure a smoother recovery process.

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT)

Pulmonary Function Tests (PFT) assess lung capacity and function. Adequate respiratory

function is necessary to handle the stress of surgery and anesthesia, and to ensure

proper recovery post-operatively. 

Patients with compromised lung function may require additional respiratory support or modifications in anesthesia management.

Tailoring Surgical Plans for Optimal Outcomes

The data obtained from these pre-operative tests enable our surgeons to develop

individualized surgical plans. By understanding each patient's unique anatomy and

health status, we can:

• Customize the surgical approach: 

Tailor the technique to the specific anatomical details of the pelvis.

• Optimize anesthesia management: 

Ensure that the patient is in the best possible condition for surgery and anesthesia.

• Minimize risks and complications: 

Address any underlying health issues that could affect surgical outcomes.

• Enhance recovery: 

Plan for a smoother recovery process by anticipating and managing potential post-operative challenges.

This comprehensive pre-operative testing protocol for Pelvic Plasty patients exemplifies

our commitment to delivering the highest quality care. By leveraging advanced

diagnostic tools and thorough pre-surgical evaluations, we ensure that our patients

receive individualized treatment plans designed for the best possible outcomes. Our

goal is to provide a safe, effective, and comfortable surgical experience for all our patients.
