ABSTRACT
Introducción: Existe experiencia previa en programas de cirugía bariátrica ambulatoria en pacientes seleccionados, que reportan buenos resultados tras gastrectomía vertical. Estudios recientes demuestran que la cirugía ambulatoria también es factible y segura en el bypass gástrico en Y de Roux. El objetivo del presente trabajo es describir y analizar los resultados de nuestra experiencia inicial tras la implementación de un programa de cirugía bariátrica sin ingreso hospitalario, con la utilización del sistema de telemonitorización. Métodos: Estudio observacional prospectivo con 14 pacientes consecutivos seleccionados, intervenidos de cirugía bariátrica primaria (gastrectomía vertical o bypass gástrico en Y de Roux) en un único centro, desde abril de 2021 hasta febrero 2023, con seguimiento en domicilio mediante la plataforma de telemonitorización REVITA® (HI Iberia, S.A.) y la unidad de hospitalización a domicilio. Resultados: Desde abril de 2021 a febrero 2023 fueron seleccionados para este programa 14 pacientes, lo cual significa el 7,3% del total de 191 pacientes intervenidos de cirugía bariátrica durante este periodo. Llegaron a completar el circuito 10 de los 14 pacientes seleccionados (71,4%). Cuatro de los 10 pacientes que completaron el circuito consultaron a urgencias en las primeras 24h (40%). No hubo complicaciones graves, reingresos, ni reintervenciones propias de la cirugía bariátrica. Se ha estimado un ahorro de 762 por cada paciente que completa el circuito. Conclusiones: La cirugía bariátrica sin ingreso hospitalario es factible y segura en pacientes seleccionados usando una plataforma de telemonitorización y con el apoyo de una unidad de hospitalización a domicilio.

Introduction: Some groups have initiated outpatient bariatric surgery programs in selected patients, publishing good results after sleeve gastrectomy. Recent studies show that outpatient surgery is also feasible and safe in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The aim of this paper is to describe and analyze the results of our initial experience after the implementation of a same-day discharge bariatric surgery program using a telemonitoring system. Methods: We have completed a prospective, observational study with 14 consecutive, selected patients undergoing primary bariatric surgery (sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass) at a single center from April 2021 to February 2023, with home follow-up using the REVITA® telemonitoring platform (HI Iberia, S.A.) and the home hospitalization unit. Results: From April 2021 to February 2023, 14 patients were selected for this program, which meant 7.3% of the total of 191 patients who underwent bariatric surgery during this period. Ten out of the 14 patients selected completed the circuit (71.4%), 4 of whom consulted the emergency department within the first 24h (40%). There were no serious complications, readmissions or re-operations typical of bariatric surgery. The estimated savings per patient who completed the circuit was 762. Conclusion: Bariatric surgery without hospital admission is feasible and safe in selected patients using a telemonitoring platform and with the support of a home hospitalization unit. (AU)
