Days alive and out of hospital after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection in the era of enhanced recovery.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Days alive and out of hospital is proposed as a valid and patient-centred quality measure for perioperative care. However, no procedure-specific data exist after pulmonary wedge resection. The aim of this study was to assess the first 90 days alive and out of hospital after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection in an optimized enhanced recovery programme.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of consecutive patients undergoing enhanced recovery thoracoscopic wedge resections from January 2021 to June 2022 in a high-volume centre was carried out. All factors leading to hospitalization, readmission, and death were evaluated individually. A logistic regression model was used to evaluate predictors. Additionally, a sensitivity
