  1. DAYCARE SURGERY

  2. CONTENTS… • Definition • History • Objectives • Advantages • Function • Infrustructures • Barriers • Steps • Assessment • Selection criteria

  3. Definition.. • Day care surgery is defined as scheduled surgical procedures provided to patients who do not require hospital stay overnight. It is a process of care by which suitable patients are managed with admission, treatment and discharge on the same day.

  4. Day care surgery …… • diagnostic and therapeutic procedures • Under local, regional, or general anaesthesia, • do not carry the risk of post-operative complications but require a period of observation in the hospital.

  5. History.. • The earliest reference for day care surgery is mentioned as early as the beginning of the 20th Century by James Nicoll, a Glasgow surgeon who performed almost 9000 outpatient operations in children in 1903. Later, in 1912, Ralph Waters from Iowa, USA, described “The Down Town Anaesthesia Clinic”, where he gave anaesthesia for minor outpatient surgery.

  6. Why Daycare? • Rising healthcare cost • Emphasis on evidence-based practice • Rising patient expectations Prof GirishPremji Joshi, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, USA

  7. Historically in the Ministry of Health, prior to 1987, day care procedures and day surgeries across the various disciplines were conducted at different facility locations within a hospital ranging from operation theatres, wards, specialist clinics, emergency department etc.

  8. In 1987 the first dedicated Ambulatory Care Centre (ACC) project was in Hospital Ipoh. • reducing surgical waiting time to 2 – 10 weeks for selected elective procedures • reduction of inpatient admissions to the surgical based departments by 28.2% .

  9. Objectives.. • To reduce waiting time for elective surgery • To reduce inpatient admission • To make surgery convenient and comfortable for the patient • To reduce disruption of personal lives • To reduce hospital-acquired infection • To encourage early recovery and mobilization in a home environment with their family • To reduce cost of surgery

  10. ADVANTAGES

  11. Patients’ advantages • Patient-centred • Patient recovers in familiar environment • Reduces complication • Early return to daily living • Reduce cost Prof GirishPremji Joshi, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, USA

  12. Hospital/ Physician oriented • No last minute cancellation • Increase bed availability • Hospital can grow inpatient services • Outpatient centre has greater efficiency & cost-effectiveness (increase throughput) • Health care cost reduction (25-75%) Prof GirishPremji Joshi, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, USA

  13. FUNCTIONS

  14. Function… • provided in an integrated set-up using either the existing operating theatres or a dedicated ambulatory care facility or day care unit • admitted, operated and discharged on the same day. • standard of care shall be the same as for inpatients. • from 8 am to 5 pm on weekdays • specialist based. • Patient and procedure selection criteria shall be strictly adhered to.

  15. Effective preoperative preparation with clear verbal and written preoperative instruction. • Anaestheticconsent . • Each anaethesiologist shall develop techniques that permit the patient to undergo the surgical procedure with minimum stress and maximum comfort, and optimize chance of early discharge. • Fitness for discharge shall be protocol-driven, doctor-led discharge which is fundamental to safe and effective day care surgery. There should be clear written post-operative instructions.

  16. discharge criteria - free from surgical and anaesthetic complication (e.ginadequate recovery) • Each day care surgery unit shall have a consultant anaesthesiologist with specific interest in day care surgery and whose remit includes development of local policies, guidelines and clinical governance. • good quality patient information for both patient and accompanying person/ family. • Effective audit is an essential component of quality care for any day care anaesthesia service. • clear documentation of anaesthetic care and recovery process

  17. Infrastructure 1) Location -provided in an integrated set-up • existing operating theatres, • dedicated operating theatres/unit or • a free standing dedicated ambulatory care facility. -The unit should have a separate entrance and exit to the main road with ample parking space.

  18. 2) Facilities • Registration counter • Waiting room • Assessment room • Changing rooms • Procedure rooms • Pre and post- operative wards • Operating theatres • Recovery room • Pharmacy

  19. 3) Staffing • A consultant Anaesthesiologist, with special interest in day care surgery, shall be responsible in developing protocols, policies, audit and clinical governance. • Anaesthesiologists • Medical Officers • Nursing Manager/Sister • Theatre Scrub Nurses • General Anaesthetic (GA) nurses • Ancillary staff • Recovery Ward Nurses

  20. Barriers

  21. Barriers • Failure to recognize daycare surgery as priority - clinician’s preference - patient’s attitude • Lack of financial incentives • Lack of specialized facilities • Poor management and organization of outpatient surgery unit Prof GirishPremji Joshi, University of Texas, Southwestern Medical Centre, Dallas, USA

  22. STEPS…

  23. Patient Assessment

  24. . • Preoperative Assessment preferably at least 2 weeks before the procedure date • to ensure adequate time to correct any abnormalities • allow the patient to be adequately informed and prepared for surgery • reduces cancellations and failure to attend

  25. Assessment should be based on social and medical criteria and agreed with the Anaesthesiology Department. • initial screening by the Surgical Team • Patient’s • medical and social history, • clinical assessment • blood Ix (if indicated) • radiographic investigations should be performed prior to advising patient for day surgery to ensure patient fitness for surgery and anaesthesia

  26. Patients suitable for day surgery will be referred to the anaesthetic team for further assessments • appointment should be made with the Anaesthetic Clinic • pre-operative assessment • to determine suitability for day care surgery

  27. Selection Criteria and Suitable Procedures For ACC (adopted from Penang Hospital)

  28. When patients are referred for day surgery in ACC, it is essential to ensure that • the procedure is suitable • risk of complications (from surgery and anaesthetic) are minimised • Admission to an in-patient bed following day surgery is prevented • Patients are adequately supported after discharge home.

  29. I) Patient Criteria II) Social Criteria III) Surgical Criteria and Proposed Suitable Procedures

  30. I) Patient Criteria a) Health Status: • ASA 1 and 2 • ASA 3 can be selected after consultation with the anaesthetic team provided their disease is well controlled.

  31. B) Age Limits: - > 75 years and < 6 months should not be selected. c) Physical Factors: - no obvious difficult airway features - BMI < 35 kgm-2.

  32. II) Social Criteria • Patients/parents must be willing to cooperate and able to understand, comply and cope with post-procedural instructions after receiving adequate information and an opportunity to discuss any anxieties. • Escort: who is responsible for patient’s care and able to accompany patient home and supervised their recovery at home for a minimum of 24 hours. • In children, two responsible people should accompany a child home – one to drive the car and the other to care for the child.

  33. Transport: Suitable transport must be available to transport patient home post surgery and also to come back to the hospital in event of emergency. • Travel on public transport or motorcycles following a general anaesthetic are inappropriate. • Geography: Patients should live within 1 hour travelling distance from hospital.

  34. Social Support: patients must have access to telephone services readily available at all times.

  35. III) Surgical Criteria • Simple surgery < 90 minutes. • minimal risk of postoperative complications e.g. haemorrhage or airway compromise. • minimal postoperative pain that can be controlled by simple analgesia. • No special postoperative nursing required post surgery. • Patient would not have prolonged immobility after the procedure. • Rapid return of normal food and fluid intake possible after the procedure
