The Future is Now 1987-1990 1997-2002 ♦ TKA: Robert Jones dressing ♦ Regional anesthesia (epidurals) ♦ THA: Charnley buttons ♦ Soft tissue injections ♦ All patients → Mini ICU ♦ Acute setting: 3-5 days ♦ LOS: 7-10 days ♦ Outside SNF: 7 days 2003-2004 ♦ Single shot spinals Average Length of Stay ♦ Rapid recovery protocols ♦ Multimodal medications ♦ LOS: 2.5 days 2005-2011 ♦ Minimally invasive surgery ♦ LOS: 1.5 days 2012-2013 ♦ Liposome bupivacaine suspension injection ♦ Same day surgery 1991-1992 1993-1997 ♦ Same protocol ♦ Same protocol ♦ LOS: 5-7 days ♦ Acute setting: 3 days ♦ Adjacent SNF: 7 days

Why Do Patients Stay in the Hospital? 1. Fear/Anxiety  Unknown  Pain 2. Risk  Co-morbidities  Medical complications 3. Side-effects of our treatment  Narcotics/anesthesia  Blood loss  Surgical trauma

An unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat

Fear: Familiarity Site Visit/Tour Know the route to get there ♦ Not worried they will be late Meet the staff Allows patients and family to understand that its not a hospital ♦ But they know that they will receive “real” medical care

A situation involving exposure to danger

Does the patient Who’s a Candidate have an ongoing medical issue that for Outpatient cannot be optimized? Arthroplasty at the ASC? No Yes Does the patient Postpone have an organ surgery until failure? medically optimized No Does the patient have adequate support upon discharge? Yes Patient is not a candidate for outpatient surgery and if No medically stable surgery Yes Consider should be performed at a Surgery can be safely surgery at hospital and the patient performed as an hospital observed for 23 hours outpatient

Insurance Status Medicare: there is no outpatient code for TKA or THA (PKA OK) ♦ Hospital/ASC ♦ Eliminates most over 65 • Helps with determining health status ♦ Different than PKA In-network vs out-of-network ♦ May determine facility ♦ May change patient responsibility

Medical Optimization: The Surgeon’s Role Identify Organ Failure: ♦ Congestive heart failure ♦ COPD ♦ Chronic renal insufficiency ♦ Hepatobiliary disease ♦ Dementia/SZ disorder ♦ Hematopoietic disease ♦ History of anemia

Medical Optimization: The Internist’s Role Make sure organ failure not missed… Medical Optimization: ♦ Referrals to specialists • Cardiology, pulmonology, hematology ♦ Identify and optimize OSA ♦ Hemoglobin management ♦ VTE risk stratification ♦ Glycemic control/A1C ♦ Smoking cessation
