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.

Ensuring optimal nutrition for the hospitalized patient is a complex issue fraught with several pitfalls for clinicians as they asses the patient’s nutritional status and determine the caloric needs and appropriate delivery method. Many factors need to be considered when creating this patient-specific plan. The following module discusses these issues and outlines the various dietary formulations (ie, oral, enteral nutrition, and parenteral nutrition). Step-by-step guidance for how to implement a nutritional plan for the different types of hospitalized patients that hospitalists encounter also is provided.

Hip fractures are a frequent cause of hospitalization in the elderly population. As the population continues to age, the incidence is expected to increase. Since many patients with hip fracture suffer from multiple medical comorbidities, hospitalists play a critical role in their care. Management of these patients requires knowledge of multiple consultative medicine topics including preoperative cardiac and pulmonary risk stratification and reduction strategies, venous thromboembolism prevention, and diagnosis and management of common postoperative complications. Open lines of communication between the hospitalist, surgeon, and anesthesiologist are essential to optimize patient care.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has an increased incidence in the surgical population compared to the general patient population. The link between OSA and cardiac disease has been well established, although sleep apnea has also been associated with several other postoperative complications, the most feared being respiratory arrest. The following module discusses these aspects of OSA and the different screening tools available to clinicians. A discussion of the logistical barriers to managing OSA and the options for treatment is included to help hospitalists successfully identify and manage these patients during the perioperative period.

Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte abnormality that occurs in hospitalized patients, and it is recognized as a serious in-hospital complication. It is a complex electrolyte disorder that results mainly from water imbalances and dysregulation of arginine vasopressin. Hyponatremia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality among geriatric patients and patients with heart, liver, or neurologic diseases. The following educational module discusses the pathophysiology of hyponatremia, outlines methods for differentiating the cause, and provides examples of how to manage hyponatremia in various situations commonly faced by hospitalists.

Therapeutic advances in cancer therapy have led to an increase in the number of patients undergoing surgery as part of their cancer treatment. These patients present several unique challenges, including weighing risks against adverse effects of delaying time-sensitive treatment and taking the patient’s cancer and its treatment into account when determining postoperative management. The following module discusses these topics, with an emphasis on cardiovascular and pulmonary toxicities of radiation and chemotherapeutic agents as well as common hematologic problems encountered in patients with cancer or a history of cancer treatment.
