About This Assessment

The General Surgery Readiness Assessment is a pre-built, patient-facing assessment designed to help clinicians collect structured information relevant to pre-operative screening to identify clinical issues that may require postponement, medication adjustments, or urgent clinician review prior to general anesthesia or surgical procedures. It gives patients a clear way to provide important context before or between consultations, helping the clinician begin review with information organised around the purpose of the assessment rather than relying solely on an unstructured history. The template is intended to support efficient information gathering and clinical review while keeping interpretation and decision-making with the treating clinician.

What This Assessment Covers

The assessment explores medical History, current Symptoms & Vitals, functional Status & Logistics, current symptoms and their severity, relevant medical and treatment history, and medications and treatment factors. These areas provide a broader view of the patient’s presentation and can help clinicians identify patterns, changes or contextual factors that may be relevant to follow-up. Where the underlying template includes safety-focused items, the information can also help surface responses that may warrant closer or more timely clinician review. The public template page describes these assessment domains without displaying the individual pre-built questions or answer choices.

How Clinicians Can Use It

The template includes 9 pre-built questions and can be used as a starting point inside the Biomarks.ai Assessment Builder. Clinicians can tailor the assessment to their workflow, add or modify questions, configure scoring and conditional logic where appropriate, set responses for additional review, and determine how AI-assisted evaluation should organise and summarise completed responses. Once configured, the assessment can be shared with patients and reviewed alongside other relevant clinical information.

Who This Assessment Is For

This template may be useful for clinicians and other healthcare professionals who want a structured, patient-facing way to collect relevant information before or between consultations. It is designed as a flexible assessment framework rather than a substitute for clinical judgement, diagnosis or treatment decisions.
