    AbstractRoutine preoperative studies in asymptomatic patients are not helpful for perioperative risk evaluation, and the cost is considerable. The decision regarding the status of a patient for elective surgery can be accurately predicted in 95% of cases on the basis of a complete history and physical examination alone; selective testing should be preferred. Interdisciplinary outpatient premedication is suitable for an individual risk evaluation, and a significant reduction in cost and inpatient treatment.
