2/8 Up first is the prerounding guide (be systematic for each patient).
3/8 Next up is a bowel regimen guide. Notice that docusate is not on here as it is a #TWDFNR.

4/8 Next we have an anti-emetic guide (watch that QTc).
5/8 Next is an inpatient blood pressure guide. Remember that we treat elevated SBPs more than we should (another #TWDFNR) but institutional policy will lag behind this.

6/8 Next is a guide to pain management.
7/8 Last, but not least, is a bundle checklist for each patient as well as disposition considerations.
8/8 Would love for feedback and to see what other institutions have!
