Brief Summary: PrepTAB aims to determine whether elderly patients are able to complete 4 preoperative risk assessment questionnaires within a web-based survey.
Detailed Description: Elderly patients are the most rapidly increasing group among surgical admissions. They are prone to a higher risk, because of predisposing risk factors. A comprehensive preoperative risk assessment is recommended by the European Society of Anaesthesiologists guideline, but time-consuming and usually not performed at present. A telemedical approach would enable an out-of hospital risk assessment before hospital admission and provide important information without the need for additional in-hospital resources. The feasibility of the completion of a web-based questionnaire by elderly patients, within a controlled in-hospital setting is required, as a base for a telemedical approach.
