Surgeon Perspectives on Determinants of Same-Day Mastectomy: A Roadmap for Implementing Change

Abstract: Background Same-day discharge after mastectomy without immediate reconstruction (MwoR) has been shown to be safe, with improved patient satisfaction when compared with patients discharged 1 or more days after surgery. Nevertheless, only 16% of patients undergoing MwoR in Michigan are discharged on the day of surgery, with significant variation between facilities (3–88%). Our objective was to explore determinants of same-day discharge and offer strategies for broader implementation of this practice… Show more

We also found postoperative pain control and nausea/vomiting to be significant issues warranting over night admission.…”
