The ASA physical status classification
system
is a system for assessing the fitness of patients before surgery.
In 1963 the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA)
adopted the five-category physical status classification system; a
sixth category was later added. These are:
1. Healthy person.
2. Mild systemic disease.
3. Severe systemic disease.
4. Severe systemic disease that is a constant threat to life.
5. A moribund person who is not expected to survive without the
operation for 24 h.
6. A declared brain-dead person whose organs are being removed
for donor purposes.
If the surgery is an emergency, the physical status
classification is followed by “E” (for emergency) .
Class 5 is usually an emergency and is therefore
usually "5E". The class "6E" does not exist and is
simply recorded as class "6", as all organ retrieval in
brain-dead patients is done urgently.
The emergency is now defined as "when delay in
treatment would significantly increase the threat to
the patient's life or body part.

Infections Acquired in the

This is indicated by superficial infection in a
wound (usually drained), occurring after first
dressing. Culture of discharge may initially be
negative, & deep infection may develop later in
a drained wound

(MRSA), or by Candida albicans.

exposed. Wear the mask throughout the operation.
