Mp77-13 outpatient Versus Inpatient Robotic Assisted Radical Prostatectomy: Complications, Time Driven Activities Based Costing and Patient Satisfaction

Abstract

urologists with different levels of experience. Further studies are required to test decision support in more complex or advanced situations.

Same day discharge robotic-assisted nephroureterectomy

“…When comparing SDS vs. inpatient radical prostatectomy, Cheng et al demonstrated no differences in complications or patient satisfaction scores, and SDS vs. inpatient robotic assisted radical prostatectomy decreased healthcare costs by almost 20%. 4 Furthermore, when given the choice, 87% of men elected to undergo SDS rather than stay overnight. 4 …”

“…Moreover, same-day surgery (SDS) is safe and feasible for radical nephrectomy, 3 and we demonstrated that patients prefer SDS over an overnight stay for major urologic cancer operations such as radical prostatectomy. 4 To our knowledge, RNU has yet to be reported as an ambulatory procedure. As such, we build on our SDS robotic assisted radical prostatectomy and partial and radical nephrectomy experience to manage high-grade upper tract urothelial carcinoma with SDS robotic RNU.…”
