Same-day discharge after craniotomy for supratentorial tumour surgery: a retrospective observational single-centre study

摘要

Purpose Enhanced Recovery After Surgery is a multimodal perioperative care pathway designed to achieve early discharge in patients undergoing major surgery. Recent advances in neurosurgery allow for shorter duration of anesthesia and surgery, faster recovery, and earlier discharge from hospital. The purpose of this retrospective observational study was to assess the incidence of early discharge from hospital in patients undergoing craniotomy for supratentorial brain tumours as well as to explore the associated perioperative factors, anesthesia techniques, and complications.
