ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Minimally invasive partial nephrectomy (MIPN) and radical nephrectomy (MIRN) have successfully resulted in shorter length of stay (LOS) for patients. Using a national cohort, we compared 30-day outcomes of SDD (LOS = 0) versus standard-length discharge (SLD, LOS = 1-3) for MIRN and MIPN.METHODS:
All patients who underwent MIPN (CPT 50,543) or MIRN (CPT 50,545) in the ACS-NSQIP database from 2012 to 2019 were reviewed. SDD and SLD groups were matched 11 by age, sex, race, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, and medical comorbidities. We compared baseline characteristics, 30-day Clavien-Dindo (CD) complications, reoperations, and readmissions between SDD and SLD groups. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to evaluate predictors of adverse outcomes.RESULTS:
28,140 minimally invasive nephrectomy patients were included (SDD n = 237 [0.8%], SLD n = 27,903 [99.2%]). There were no significant differences in 30-day readmissions, CD I/II, CDIII, or CD IV complications before and after matching SDD and SLD groups. On multivariate regression analysis, SDD did not confer increased risk of 30-day complications or readmissions for both MIPN and MIRN.CONCLUSION:
SDD after MIPN and MIRN did not confer increased risk of postoperative complications, reoperation, or readmission compared to SLD. Further research should explore optimal patient selection to ensure safe expansion of this initiative.Key words
