In the dynamic landscape of surgical medicine, the journey doesn't end with the closure of an incision. Post-operative complications represent a critical phase where vigilance, knowledge, and swift action can profoundly impact patient outcomes. This lecture series is meticulously designed to equip medical students on surgery rotations with the essential skills and insights to navigate through three paramount complications: bleeding, kidney injury, and fevers.

Bleeding, a formidable adversary in the post-operative period, demands a nuanced understanding of its etiology, diagnosis, and management. Through this series, students will delve into the intricacies of identifying bleeding sources, interpreting coagulation profiles, and employing effective hemostatic strategies. Practical scenarios and high-yield facts will illuminate the path towards mastery in mitigating this life-threatening complication.

Kidney injury, often lurking in the shadows of surgical interventions, poses a significant threat to patient recovery. From recognizing early signs to implementing preventive measures, attendees will explore the intricacies of renal physiology, perioperative risk factors, and diagnostic modalities for renal dysfunction.

Fevers, while commonly encountered, can herald a spectrum of underlying pathologies demanding astute clinical acumen. This series will unravel the diagnostic algorithm for post-operative fevers, encompassing infectious, inflammatory, and thromboembolic etiologies.

Throughout the lecture series, an interactive format will foster engagement and critical thinking, enabling students to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios. Case studies, clinical pearls, and cutting-edge research will enrich the learning experience
