The Night Before Surgery

  • You will spend the night before surgery at home.
  • The night before surgery you should not have anything to eat or drink after midnight.
  • Do not drink any alcohol for 48 hours before surgery; it delays the emptying of the stomach.
  • Try not the smoke (at least cut back) for 48 hours before surgery: smoking increases anesthetic risk.
