Should We Expand Outpatient Total Joint Selection Criteria? Re-exploring Hard Stop Criteria
Robust pre- and perioperative protocols enabled safe SDD for high-risk patients traditionally excluded by HS criteria. Our study demonstrates that HS criteria better predict 90-day complications than SDD failure. Further research is needed to develop tools to reliably identify patients at risk of 24-hour complications because, ultimately, this is paramount for evaluating ASC candidacy.
