The number of patients who undergo outpatient surgery is constantly growing in Spain. Outpatient surgery is interesting not only because of its economy, but also the social benefits that derive from patients returning home sooner and the rapid reduction of the waiting list. We discuss our experience in the last year with 40 patients who underwent surgery. We made a comparative study of patients with the same pathology and anesthetic risk who were treated by outpatient surgery and those treated by inpatient surgery with a traditional technique who were admitted 24 hours before surgery. Our rate of complications (19%) was close to the traditional rate. However, 3, 927, 000 pesetas were saved and the patients were very satisfied, which encouraged us to continue. Indications and complications are discussed. |
