Abstract | Day-case, or outpatient, arthroplasty is growing and has been adopted in healthcare systems because of its cost-effectiveness. A number of studies that reported on day-case total hip arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty have shown that they can be performed successfully in a select group of patients. However, safety remains a concern, as a clear pathway, including discharge criteria, is not well described in the literature. This article outlines the stages of care involved in day-case hip and knee arthroplasty and gives insights from University College London Hospital's own evidence-based day-case arthroplasty pathway. |
