Abstract
Spine surgery has grown exponentially over the last several decades. This growth has been driven both by innovations in perioperative management and an increasing number of patients with advanced age. As a result, patients presenting for spine surgery often have a complex medical history with multiple underlying comorbidities. Optimization of preoperative health status and adoption of enhanced recovery principles can reduce complications in the perioperative period. Multidisciplinary collaboration between primary care providers, consulting specialists, anesthesiologists, and surgeons is essential in improving outcomes in patients undergoing spine surgery.
