Following a review of the patient&#8217;s medical history to determine whether the tests are appropriate for the treatment, the surgeon may then prescribe tests like ultrasound, ECG, x-ray, blood tests, and so forth. After a complete checkup and deciding on the treatment, the patient is given a list of instructions on how to get ready for the procedure. Among them are guidelines on what to do and what not to do before the procedure. For instance, the patient is advised not to smoke, consume alcohol, take blood-thinning medicines, or any medication that can affect the treatment.
