Outpatient urology surgery offers a cost-saving and psychologically easier alternative to inpatient procedures. Strict eligibility criteria ensure patient safety, minimizing risks and nosocomial infections for successful same-day or next-day discharge.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Procedures
  • Healthcare Management

Context:

  • Established outpatient urology clinic since November 1988.
  • Patients admitted for various procedures including endoscopic, open surgery, and diagnostic investigations.
  • Utilized strict social, surgical, and medical criteria for patient eligibility.

Purpose:

  • Evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of outpatient urology surgery.
  • Compare outpatient surgery with traditional inpatient procedures.
  • Assess cost-effectiveness, patient experience, and safety of ambulatory urological care.

Summary:

  • 172 adult patients underwent outpatient procedures (endoscopic, open surgery, other) between Nov 1988 and Dec 1989.
  • Most patients were discharged same-day; 23 were discharged the following day; one readmission for bladder clot.
