As the physicians responsible for safeguarding the health of patients when it counts most, anesthesiologists are at the very center of America’s Vital Health. Every day in hospitals and health centers across the country, anesthesiologists see how the Vital Health of their patients directly and profoundly affects surgical and pain treatment outcomes.
Anesthesiologists are encouraging all Americans to actively manage their Vital Health. This means being aware of your Vital Health and taking action to protect it. This information sheet is an important first step. But while it provides some helpful information, it should not be considered a replacement for active consultation with your doctor.
Take the first step to improving your Vital Health by using the Know Your Vital Health Tool. After answering a series of health-related questions, you’ll receive a customized, anonymous health evaluation with suggested next steps.
