Article Synopsis
- - This study evaluated postoperative visits to the emergency department (ED) by 394 patients who underwent bariatric surgery for obesity, focusing on minimizing emergency room admissions.
- - Results showed that 22% of patients visited the ED after surgery, with urinary tract infections being the most common complaint; only a small percentage required hospitalization for serious conditions.
- - To reduce unnecessary ED visits, the study suggests more frequent check-ups and outpatient treatments like intravenous hydration and prescribed care for post-surgery patients.
