Is one-day hospitalization after open pyeloplasty possible and safe?

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:A critical pathway was developed to determine whether open pyeloplasty could be performed in preadolescent and adolescent children with ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction with patients safely discharged after a 1-day hospitalization. METHODS:Twenty-six consecutive children who underwent open dismembered pyeloplasty for the treatment of UPJ obstruction and followed a critical pathway for preoperative education, operative management, and postoperative care were evaluated. The patients received a caudal anesthetic for preventive analgesia unless not technically possible and postoperative ketorolac (Toradol) unless contraindicated. A child was required to fulfill five strict criteria to be discharged from the hospital. RESULTS:The 26 patients with UPJ obstruction consisted of 18 boys and 8 girls (age range 2.4 months to 16.7 years). Of the 26 patients, 24 (92%) were discharged on the first postoperative day, with a mean length of hospitalization of 1.1 days (range 1 to 3). All patients younger than 6 years of age (19 patients) were discharged on the first postoperative day. Of the 25 patients who received a caudal block, 24 (96%) were discharged on the first postoperative day. All patients tolerated the procedure well without major complications. CONCLUSIONS:This is the first study, to our knowledge, to describe a detailed critical pathway for open pyeloplasty to treat UPJ obstruction. This enabled all children younger than 6 years of age and more than 90% of all patients to be discharged uniformly on the first postoperative day.
