Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a retrospective chart review to determine the etiologies contributing to prolonged PACU discharge at a major Orthopedic Ambulatory Center

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Increasing number of surgeries are now performed at ambulatory surgical centers including orthopaedic procedures. While healthier patients usually undergo non-major orthopaedic procedures using regional anesthesia to facilitate faster discharges, prolonged PACU discharges are frequently encountered necessitating characterization and identification of modifiable variables. This is a retrospective chart review to determine the etiologies contributing to prolonged PACU discharge at a major Orthopedic Ambulatory Center.
