Summary
A 47-year-old female presents for an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of the left femur after an automobile accident. Her past medical history is significant for hypertension. She has been a one-pack-per-day smoker for the past 20 years. The patient’s oxygen saturation is 93% on 2 L nasal cannula. What pre-operative tests would you like? Why? How will her low oxygen saturation affect your anesthetic plan?
