The Authors propose an organizational model for a surgical day hospital program, which is being used for a pilot day surgery unit in the I Department of Surgery of the Rome University "La Sapienza". The program requires little capital investment, as it is closely linked, geographically and administratively, to the main surgical unit, and uses the present staff, facilities and support services. The model is based on a computerized LAN (Local Area Network), providing fast recording, scheduling, management and trannsfer of medical data for each patient. The present situation is reported in detail. Data from the authors' outpatient department for 1988, have been recorded and elaborated. The results show a low use of surgical day care, limited to minor surgical procedures, and with not a single operation performed under general anesthesia. The authors hope to see a growth in the use of day surgery and a more selective use of inpatient care.

Abstract

The Authors propose an organizational model for a surgical day hospital program, which is being used for a pilot day surgery unit in the I Department of Surgery of the Rome University "La Sapienza". The program requires little capital investment, as it is closely linked, geographically and administratively, to the main surgical unit, and uses the present staff, facilities and support services. The model is based on a computerized LAN (Local Area Network), providing fast recording, scheduling, management and trannsfer of medical data for each patient. The present situation is reported in detail. Data from the authors' outpatient department for 1988, have been recorded and elaborated. The results show a low use of surgical day care, limited to minor surgical procedures, and with not a single operation performed under general anesthesia. The authors hope to see a growth in the use of day surgery and a more selective use of inpatient care.
