Abstract

Areas of concern about day case surgery are highlighted. A group of 442 patients underwent cataract surgery with lens implant. They were randomly allocated to day case or inpatient groups. Questionnaires were used to assess opinions about day case cataract surgery and how patients felt they would manage. None of the areas of concern were actually a problem. Difficulties encountered by patients and clinicians in the postoperative period are discussed. Most patients appear suitable for day case surgery provided they are well informed.

摘要

日间手术令人担忧的领域被凸显出来。一组442名患者接受了白内障晶状体植入手术。他们被随机分配到日间手术组或住院组。通过问卷调查来评估对日间白内障手术的看法以及患者认为自己如何应对。实际上，所有令人担忧的领域都不是问题。文中讨论了患者和临床医生在术后阶段遇到的困难。大多数患者只要得到充分告知，似乎都适合日间手术。
