After watching this webinar, participants will be able to:

• apply current guidelines for management of antithrombotic therapy; and
• understand the challenges in perioperative thrombotic and bleeding risk assessment by a case-based discussion. 

Needs assessments:

• To improve communication platforms between colleagues – i.e. general cardiologists, cardiology specialists, anaesthesiologists, surgeons – in order to better manage perioperative antithrombotic therapy in high risk patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.
• To improve understanding about thrombotic and bleeding risk assessment in the perioperative setting of noncardiac surgery and to explain organisational changes affecting patient care.
