INTRODUCTION. The preoperative evaluation determines the health status of a patient that will undergo a surgical intervention, minimizes its risk, and optimizes the human and material resources of the perioperative scenario. OBJECTIVE. To determine the preoperative evaluation process and its ability to prevent adverse clinical events during the immediate postoperative period in adult patients undergoing a noncardiac surgical procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS. This is a retrospective cross-sectional study. The sample of 912 medical records was calculated upon a population of 6 250 adults treated at the Carlos Andrade Marín Specialties Hospital in 2017. Inclusion criteria: patients over 18 years of age, who underwent a preoperative evaluation on an outpatient basis, and were operated on for non-cardiac interventions until January 2019, or suspension of surgery due to contraindications determined in the medical appointment. Exclusion criteria: patients under 18 years of age, not undergoing surgery, hospitalized for any reason between revision and surgery, pregnant women, and individuals with preoperative consultation outside the hospital. The computer programs used for data collection and analysis were Microsoft Excel and the International Business Machines Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. RESULTS. 82,68% (754; 912) had a previous clinical condition and 82,13% (749; 912) had a previous surgical intervention. 2,00% (18; 912) of postoperative complications were reported, and one case of death after 72 postoperative hours. No statistically significant correlation p>0,05 was found between the clinical conclusions of the preoperative control and the occurrence of postoperative complications. CONCLUSION. It was evidenced that the preoperative evaluation process was carried out systematically to patients with heterogeneous sociodemographic and clinical characteristics and there was no statistical correlation between its results and the presence of perioperative complications.
