Evaluation of short-term outcomes following overlapping urologic surgery at a large academic medical center

Urology Feb 25, 2020

Glauser G, et al. - This study was sought to examine the impact of overlapping surgery on the risk of adverse outcomes in urologic surgery. Researchers applied coarsened exact matching to evaluate the effect of overlap on outcomes among urologic surgical interventions (n = 4853) between 2013 and 2015 at 1 health system. Any overlap did not predict an unanticipated return to surgery at 30 or 90 days among matched patients. At 30 or 90 days, any overlap prognosticated neither reoperation, readmission, or ER visits. During follow-up, overlap individuals revealed no difference in mortality. It was reported that beginning/end overlap had a similar lack of relationship with serious unanticipated events. This study found that nonconcurrent overlapping surgery is not correlated with adverse outcomes in a large, matched urologic surgery population across 1 academic health system.
