What type of blood work do they do before a deviated septum surgery?

Most physicians do not require any preoperative testing but that can vary based upon the level of anesthesia, your age and whether you take any blood thinners or not or are predisposed to bleeding. This procedure is typically an outpatient procedure and does not require a major work up.

Lab tests requirements before septoplasty or any other facial plastic procedure depends on your overall age, family history, and health.  In  otherwise healthy patients with no family history of bleeding disorders, we do not routinely need blood work for any patients less than 50 years old.  We utilize an algorithim which directs us on the need for routine blood testing before elective surgery. Good luck with your procedure.

each hospital, surgicenter, and anesthesia group has its own protocols.age and overall health of the patient guide me to get anything additional. It is incredibly rare for that to happen.
