The safety of the same-day discharge for selected patients after laparoscopic fundoplication: a prospective cohort study
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundWe conducted a prospective cohort study to assess the acceptability, feasibility and safety of day-case laparoscopic fundoplication for gastroesophageal reflux disease in an university-based tertiary care center.MethodsThe procedure was proposed as routine for patients with proven symptomatic uncomplicated gastroesophageal reflux disease fulfilling predetermined inclusion criteria from September 2003 to December 2005. Standard anesthetic, surgical, analgesic, and antiemetic protocols were used. Acceptability, admission, complication, and reoperation rates and patient satisfaction were evaluated. Postoperative pain and nausea were assessed using an 11-point numeric rating scale (NRS). The Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) was administered before and after surgery.ResultsAmong 100 patients screened, 40 (40%) were included. Seven patients were admitted because of inadequate pain control (n = 3), nausea or vomiting (n = 3), or anxiety (n = 1); 33 were discharged as planned 6 to 8 hours after operation. Only 1 patient was readmitted and reoperated because of fundoplicature migration following uncontrolled vomiting. At follow-up, 92.5% of patients were satisfied with the day-case treatment. If offered a similar operation in the future, 82.5% of patients would have accepted day-case treatment. The Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index was 90.7 (±21.2) preoperatively compared with 105.8 (±21.8) postoperatively (P < .001).ConclusionsDay-case laparoscopic fundoplication is feasible in selected patients. However, (1) strict control of postoperative nausea and pain is essential, and (2) preoperative standardized education program for ambulatory surgery might be useful in order to enhance patient acceptability and satisfaction rates.
