outcomes?

Surprisingly, obesity is not a risk factor for adverse
postoperative outcomes. Type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and congestive
heart failure may all require additional preoperative testing. Poor functional
capacity is defined as being unable to walk four blocks or up two flights of
steps. Persons with poor functional capacity have more than twice as many
adverse outcomes than their counterparts with better functional capacity.
