Abstrakt: Background: Outpatient surgery in gynaecology may offer advantages including cost reduction, patient convenience and hospital bed optimisation without compromising patient safety and satisfaction. With the continual rise in health costs since 2000, outpatient surgery could be a line of action to improve financial resource utilisation and a solution for continuing to treat patients during crises such as the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.
Objective: This systematic review provides an overview of the literature on minimally invasive outpatient hysterectomy for benign indications.
Method: A focused systematic review of the medical literature between 2018 and 2022 on outpatient gynaecological surgery for a benign indication was conducted using the PubMed and Google Scholar search engines. We then narrowed our selection to articles that referred to hysterectomy. Successful same-day discharge (SDD) was defined as the patient's return home on the day of the procedure without an overnight stay.
Results: Fifteen articles that focused on minimally invasive surgery were included in this review. Most of the studies (n = 11) were conducted in the United States. Outpatient surgery had a mean success rate of 60 % and a mean readmission rate of 3 %. The main reasons for SDD failure were patient choice, failed voiding, the need for pain management, nausea or vomiting, or both and the late timing of surgery. SDD was not associated with more complications and readmissions compared with inpatient care. The three main attribute predictors of SDD were young age, early timing of surgery and short total operative time. Patient satisfaction with SDD was high in absolute terms and relative to satisfaction with hospitalisation.
Conclusion: Minimally invasive outpatient hysterectomy for a benign indication is feasible and safe but is associated with a notable risk of failure. To increase the success rate of outpatient management, patients must be well selected and surgery pathways must be planned in advance. The implementation of enhanced recovery protocols may help promote outpatient hysterectomy for a benign indication.
