Abstract |
Objectives |
To assess and compare the safety and quality of the management of sinonasal surgery (all procedures) between day-case and traditional admission.
Material and methods |
A 2-year retrospective study included all patients undergoing functional septonasal surgery, ethmoidectomy, middle antrostomy, frontal sinusotomy or endoscopic sphenoidotomy, as day-surgery on inpatient admission. Demographic, operative, pre- and post-operative anesthetic data, complications, and rates of emergency consultation and readmission within 30 days were collected and compared between out- and in-patients.
Results |
Nine hundred and nine patients were included: 569 functional septonasal surgeries, 180 ethmoidectomies, 101 middle meatotomies, 40 Draf procedures and 19 sphenoidotomies; respectively 60%, 21%, 54%, 20% and 37% were performed in the day-surgery unit. There were no significant differences in number of emergency consultations or readmissions between the out- and in-patient groups. There were more complications in in-patients (P<0.0001) (4.9% anticoagulant and 12% antiplatelet treatments, 18% obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndromes). The conversion rate to conventional admission was 4.6%. Antiplatelet treatment or postoperative nasal packing were not significant risk factors for complications or readmission.
Conclusion |
Outpatient sinonasal surgery does not seem to incur extra risk for the patient or surgeon when eligibility criteria are met.
