  • First Online:
Cosmetic Surgery

Abstract

Nearly 75% of all elective surgery is performed in an outpatient setting. As much as 25% of all outpatient surgeries are performed in physicians’ offices. Regulatory agencies such as American Association of Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery (AAAASF) and Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) have helped establish minimum standards of care for surgical locations where anesthesia is administered. The surgical facility, preoperative evaluation, evaluation of risk assessment, medical disorders that increase risk, and the various anesthetic agents are discussed.
