ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
We examine the timing, patterns and predictors of 90-day readmission after robotic radical cystectomy. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
From September 2009 to March 2017, 271 consecutive patients undergoing robotic radical cystectomy with intent to cure bladder cancer (intracorporeal diversion 253, 93%) were identified from our prospectively collated institutional database. Readmission was defined as any subsequent inpatient admission or unplanned visit occurring within 90 days from discharge after the index hospitalization. Multiple readmissions were defined as 2 or more readmissions within a 90-day period. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors related to single and multiple 90-day readmissions.RESULTS:
A total of 78 (28.8%) patients were readmitted at least once within 90 days after discharge, of whom 20 (25.6%) reported multiple readmissions. The cumulative duration of readmission was 6.2 (6.17) days with 6 (7.6%) patients having less than 24 hours readmission. Metabolic, infectious, genitourinary and gastrointestinal complications were identified as the primary cause of readmission in 39.5%, 23.5%, 22.3% and 17%, respectively. Fifty percent of readmissions occurred in the first 2 weeks after hospital discharge. On multivariable logistic regression analysis in-hospital infections (OR 2.85, p=0.001) were independent predictors for overall readmission. Male gender (OR 3.5, p=0.02) and in-hospital infections (OR 4.35, p=0.002) were independent predictors for multiple readmissions.CONCLUSIONS:
The 90-day readmission rate following robotic radical cystectomy is significant. In-hospital infections and male gender were independent factors for readmission. Most readmissions occurred in the first 2 weeks following discharge, with metabolic derangements and infections being the most common causes.Palavras-chave
