preoperative-lab-checklist

preoperative-lab-checklist is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from langcare/langcare-mcp-fhir. It costs 103 tokens per session (3,499 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A checklist for deciding which blood tests are needed before surgery. It considers the planned procedure, the patient’s other conditions, medicines, age, and ASA physical status, a medical classification of overall preoperative risk.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check pre-surgery laboratory readiness, assess anticoagulant status and bridging needs, and create requests for missing laboratory tests.
Why use it?
It shows which acceptable recent results already exist and identifies missing tests, helping assess whether the laboratory part of surgical preparation is complete.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

preoperative-lab-checklist scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Preoperative Lab Checklist

Overview

Evaluate preoperative laboratory readiness for a scheduled surgical procedure. Determine required labs based on procedure type (low/medium/high risk), patient comorbidities, ASA physical status classification, and current medications. Query existing Observation resources to identify which required labs are already available within acceptable timeframes. Generate ServiceRequest resources for missing labs. Assess anticoagulation status and bridging needs.

FHIR Resources Used

Resource Purpose Key Fields
Procedure Planned surgery details code, status, performedDateTime
Condition Patient comorbidities for risk stratification code, clinicalStatus, category
Observation Existing lab results code, valueQuantity, effectiveDateTime, status
MedicationStatement Current medications (anticoagulants, etc.) medicationCodeableConcept, status, dosage
Patient Demographics, age birthDate, gender
ServiceRequest Lab orders to create code, intent, priority, subject

Instructions

Step 1: Retrieve Patient Demographics and Planned Procedure

Tool: fhir_read
resourceType: "Patient"
id: "[patient-id]"

Extract age and gender. Age > 65 triggers additional requirements. Pregnancy-capable patients may need HCG.

Retrieve the planned procedure:

Tool: fhir_search
resourceType: "Procedure"
queryParams: "patient=[patient-id]&status=preparation&_sort=-date&_count=5"

If no Procedure with status preparation, check ServiceRequest for surgical orders:

Tool: fhir_search
resourceType: "ServiceRequest"
queryParams: "patient=[patient-id]&category=http://snomed.info/sct|387713003&status=active"

SNOMED 387713003 = Surgical procedure. Extract procedure type and planned date.

Step 2: Classify Surgical Risk

Based on the procedure code, classify into bleeding risk categories:

Low Risk (minimal blood loss expected):

  • Cataract surgery, minor dermatologic procedures, endoscopy without biopsy, breast biopsy, hernia repair (laparoscopic)

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
