Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia in the postoperative period. It is important that hospitalists understand the current management of postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) because it is a frequent reason for consultation. Postoperative AF after noncardiac surgery has been associated with risk of thromboembolism, myocardial infarction, and mortality. The following module addresses the incidence, natural history, risk factors, prevention, clinical significance, evaluation, and management of newly diagnosed postoperative AF after non-cardiothoracic surgery.

Although obstetricians play the most critical role in the health of a pregnant woman and her fetus, the internist’s skills are also often needed to assure their health. From caring for chronic medical illnesses during pregnancy to diagnosing and managing acute medical complications of pregnancy, the internist must comfortably practice obstetric medicine. The following module discusses these important topics and explains how to provide a cost-effective and evidence-based preoperative evaluation of a pregnant patient. In addition, a discussion of the use of appropriate intraoperative and postoperative interventions and methods for employing an evidence-based approach to prescribing medications in pregnant patients is included.
