Day-case surgery has been urged on the National Health Service by the Audit Commission in the last decade despite concerns about safety. A questionnaire was posted to the parents of 109 children who had recently undergone day-case adenoidectomy, addressing parental concerns and opinions. Eighty per cent of the questionnaires were returned. A high level of satisfaction with day-case adenoidectomy was expressed by the parents. All the children were observed for six hours after surgery prior to discharge. One child was visited at home by his general practitioner in the first 24 hours of discharge but there were no serious post-operative complications and none of the children required re-admission to hospital. Day-case adenoidectomy is safe, very acceptable to parents and does not result in a greatly increased workload for general practitioners.
尽管存在安全方面的担忧，但在过去十年里，审计委员会一直在敦促国民医疗服务体系开展日间手术。我们向109名近期接受日间腺样体切除术的儿童的家长发放了问卷，以了解家长们的担忧和意见。80%的问卷被收回。家长们对日间腺样体切除术表示高度满意。所有儿童在术后均观察6小时后才出院。有一名儿童在出院后的头24小时内由其全科医生进行了家访，但没有出现严重的术后并发症，也没有儿童需要再次入院。日间腺样体切除术是安全的，家长们非常认可，并且不会给全科医生带来大幅增加的工作量。
