  • Evaluation of Safety and Quality of 5 520 Cases in Day Surgery

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and quality of patients in day surgery. MethodsThe clinical data of patients in day surgery from March to December 2014 in this hospital were collected. The incidence of complications, delayed discharge rate, rate of readmission to hospital, satisfaction, and so on, were analyzed. ResultsOf 5 520 patients were in day surgery, including laporoscopic cholecystectomy, hernia repair surgery, vocal cord polyps resection, breast minimally invasive surgery, varicose vein of lower limb, choledochoscopy, gastrointestinal polyposis, and so on. No patient was loss of follow-up, unplanned reoperation or death after day surgery. There were 39.95%(2 205/5 520) of wound pain and 0.51%(28/5 520) of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the complications. The delayed discharge rate was 0.62%(34/5 520), the rate of unplanned readmission to hospital was 0.49%(27/5 520), and the satisfaction rate was 98.99%(5 464/5 520). ConclusionFor the above surgery types in this study, the day surgery mode is safe and effective.

  • 30-day readmission of patients with acute heart failure: a meta-analysis of real-world studies vs. randomized controlled trials

    ObjectiveTo systematically review the difference in 30-day readmission rates among acute heart failure patients between real-world studies vs. randomized controlled trials (RCTs). MethodsPubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, VIP and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect clinical studies on 30-day readmission rates in patients with acute heart failure from inception to April 12th, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using Stata 16.0 software. ResultsA total of 33 real-world studies and 11 RCTs involving 106 722 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the 30-day heart failure-related readmission rates in the real-world studies and RCTs were 10.8% (95%CI 9.3% to 12.3%) and 6.9% (95%CI 5.3% to 8.4%), respectively. The 30-day all-cause readmission rates in real-world studies and randomized controlled studies were 18.6% (95%CI 15.7% to 21.4%) and 14.2% (95%CI 12.0% to 16.3%), respectively. There were statistically significant differences between two kinds of studies (P<0.05). ConclusionsCurrent evidence suggests that the 30-day heart failure-related and all-cause readmission rates in patients of acute heart failure in real-world studies are significantly higher than those in patients of RCTs. Due to the limited quality and quantity of included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
