Abstract
In this issue, Vanetta et al. [1] evaluate the safety and success of same-day discharge (SDD) following the 2 most commonly performed bariatric procedures, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). The authors describe qualitatively the results of 33,403 patients across 14 studies who underwent SDD after SG (n = 32,165) or after RYGB (n = 1238) and perform a quantitative meta-analysis of 5000 patients across 7 studies who underwent SDD following SG. Successful SDD, readmission, and morbidity rates were primary outcomes, and reoperation and mortality rates were secondary outcomes.
