简介
Objectives
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, health care utilization, and safety of a same-day discharge protocol.
Background
Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common ablation performed. Increasing volumes of AF ablation are placing demands on hospital resources. In response, our institutions developed a same-day discharge protocol for AF ablation.
Methods
This was a multicenter cohort study of all patients undergoing AF ablation from 2010 to 2014 at 2 major centers. The primary efficacy outcome was the proportion of successful same-day discharges. The primary health care utilization outcome was 30-day hospital readmission for any reason. The primary safety outcome was a composite of 30-day death, stroke/transient ischemic attack or embolism, or bleeding requiring hospitalization.
Results
A total of 3,054 patients underwent AF ablation from 2010 to 2014 and …
