- W1539467419 abstract "Conventional wisdom holds that a retinal detachment of recent onset should be regarded as a surgical emergency. A delay in surgery may result in an extension of detachment for patients with an attached macula and a worse visual outcome for patients with a detached macula. However, the potential disadvantages of performing surgery on an emergency basis must be weighed against the risks of delaying surgery; disadvantages include a greater frequency of operative complications resulting from fatigue factors among the operating personnel, an increased anesthetic risk due to inadequate time to assess and stabilize coexisting medical problems, and higher hospital costs. In this retrospective study covering 4 1/2 years, we compared the risks, benefits, length of hospitalization, and costs of scleral buckling surgery for retinal detachments performed as an emergency procedure or on the day following admission. After a 15% random selection from 884 consecutive operations, 48 emergency procedures were compared with 89 scheduled procedures. Patients selected for emergency surgery had better visual prognoses than scheduled patients. The potential for risk of systemic complications was not a reason for postponing surgery. None of the 18 patients with an attached macula experienced macular involvement while awaiting scheduled surgery. There were no differences between emergency and scheduled patients in ocular or systemic complications, rate of reattachment, rate of decreased visual acuity following surgery, visual outcome adjusted for prognosis, or, since 1985, length of hospital stay. Cost was greater for patients having emergency surgery, because of a difference in pay scales for support personnel." @default.
