Abstract
In 2006, we have further defined the optimal types of pediatric patients and procedures for ambulatory management in major medical centers and free-standing surgery centers. This review presents a summary of our experience with ambulatory surgical patients at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative concerns are addressed. In addition, criteria for ambulatory management, on the basis of patient health status, are reviewed in detail.
