Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As the client is going into surgery in the morning, only essential questions limited to current symptoms should be asked. In-depth questions can be deferred to a later time. Obtaining a history from the family or asking extensive questions on the history of present symptoms may not be useful in the immediate pre-operative period. Limited questions on family cerebrovascular history may be useful, but not essential.
