Article Synopsis
- A study analyzed data from 589 patients who underwent lower-limb surgeries, focusing on age, BMI, and other health issues.
- Results showed that higher BMI and older age are linked to longer hospital stays and increased surgery time, with specific percentages calculated for each factor.
- The findings highlight that the current reimbursement system does not adequately cover the financial impact of these variables, leading to the creation of a predictive chart for hospital stay lengths based on BMI and age.
