Patients previously deemed unsuitable for surgery are now undergoing potentially lifesaving treatments, but are nonetheless still being managed within a model of care that fails to meet their individual needs. Termed 'high risk', these patients, who are frequently elderly or with multiple comorbidities, embark on a surgical journey that is often fragmented and disjointed. Such patients contribute a startlingly high mortality and morbidity rate for non-cardiac elective surgery during the perioperative period, and as a result provide an added demand on already strained hospital resources.
