What is same-day surgery?

Same-day surgery is one of the most rapidly developing areas of modern healthcare, enabling a wide range of minor surgical procedures to be carried out safely and comfortably, supported by state-of-the-art technology. Following the procedure, patients can usually go home the same day, meaning that most of their recovery takes place in their own familiar surroundings.

This approach may be particularly important for those who lead active lives, work, or wish to minimise the physical and mental strain associated with a prolonged hospital stay. At Mediversal Synergy’s same-day surgery centre in Szeged, precise examinations, well-organised care process and the possibilities offered by state-of-the-art technology all serve the aim of ensuring that the necessary procedure is carried out as quickly as possible, with utmost patient safety and in the gentlest manner possible.

What is the difference between same-day surgery and surgical treatment requiring a longer hospital stay?

The type of surgical procedure is always determined by the nature of the condition, the type of procedure, the method of anaesthesia, and the patient’s general health condition. Same-day surgery does not mean ‘simpler’ or ‘less thorough’ care; it is only applicable in cases where modern surgical and anaesthetic techniques safely allow patients to return home after a short period of observation.

Same-day surgery:

  • Following the procedure, patients are usually sent home the same day
  • Most of the recovery takes place at home
  • Procedures involve minimal surgical stress or can be easily planned
  • The examination and follow-up are carried out in an organised manner on an outpatient basis


Surgical treatment requiring a longer hospital stay:

  • Several days of observation or more intensive post-operative care may be required
  • More complex or more demanding operations are performed
  • The patient’s condition or underlying medical conditions may warrant hospitalisation
  • The first stage of recovery takes place in a hospital setting


The choice of the appropriate form of care is always a matter for a specialist to decide, based on considerations of safety and the best chances of recovery!

Mi a különbség az egynapos és a hosszabb kórházi tartózkodást igénylő sebészeti ellátás között?

A sebészeti beavatkozások ellátási formáját minden esetben az adott elváltozás jellege, a beavatkozás típusa, az érzéstelenítés módja, valamint a páciens általános egészségi állapota határozza meg. Az egynapos sebészet nem „egyszerűbb” vagy „kevésbé alapos” ellátást jelent, kizárólag olyan esetekben alkalmazható, amikor a modern műtéti és altatási lehetőségek biztonságosan lehetővé teszik a rövid megfigyelést követő hazatérést.

Egynapos sebészet esetén:

  • a beavatkozás után a páciens jellemzően még aznap hazatérhet
  • a felépülés nagy része otthoni környezetben történik
  • kisebb műtéti megterheléssel járó vagy jól tervezhető beavatkozásokat végzünk
  • a kivizsgálás és az utókövetés szervezetten, ambuláns formában történik

Hosszabb kórházi tartózkodást igénylő sebészeti ellátás esetén:

  • több napos megfigyelés vagy intenzívebb posztoperatív ellátás válhat szükségessé
  • összetettebb vagy nagyobb megterheléssel járó műtétek történnek
  • a páciens állapota vagy társbetegségei indokolhatják a bentfekvést
  • a gyógyulás első szakasza kórházi környezetben zajlik

A megfelelő ellátási forma kiválasztása minden esetben szakorvosi döntés kérdése, amelynek alapja a biztonság és a legjobb gyógyulási esélyek figyelembevétele!

What are the benefits of same-day surgery?

Same-day surgery enables us to carry out the necessary procedure in state-of-the-art facilities, whilst causing the least possible disruption to your daily life.

Quicker return to everyday life
Following the procedure, patients are usually sent home the same day, meaning that a significant part of their recovery takes place in their own familiar surroundings.

Minor disruption to work and daily life
Day care can help minimise the time and organisational burdens associated with longer hospital stays.

State-of-the-art, minimally invasive surgical techniques
In many cases, modern surgical instruments and techniques allow for less tissue trauma, more precise procedures and faster recovery.

A structured, transparent patient pathway
Examination, treatment and follow-up are carried out in a step-by-step process, so the patient knows exactly what to expect throughout the entire process.

Safe, controlled care environment
Same-day surgery is recommended in cases where the nature of the procedure and the type of anaesthesia allow the patient to return home after a short period of observation.

How does same-day surgical care work at Mediversal?

Same-day surgical procedures start with a detailed consultation and examination by a specialist. The aim is to determine whether the procedure in question can be safely carried out on an outpatient basis, and to plan the procedure in detail.

Specialist medical examination and decision on the type of care

The surgeon assesses the complaints, the nature of the lesion, and the patient’s general condition. If necessary, further tests may be carried out to ensure that the procedure is prepared safely.

Date of the operation is determined to suit the patient’s lifestyle. Before the procedure, the patient receives detailed information about the method of anaesthesia, the steps involved in preparing for the procedure, and the expected recovery process.

The procedure is carried out using modern surgical equipment in a controlled clinical setting, with the necessary professional expertise and monitoring in place.

Following the operation, the patient will remain under observation and, provided their condition is stable, may be discharged on the same day.

Same-day surgery does not end with the procedure itself: monitoring of the recovery process and any necessary follow-up appointments are organised in a structured manner.

How should you prepare for a same-day surgery procedure?

Thorough preparation is a key factor in the success of same-day surgery. You will always receive specific instructions from a specialist regarding the exact steps to take; however, there are a few general guidelines that can help ensure the procedure and recovery go as smoothly as possible.

Undergo the necessary tests

To ensure the operation is carried out safely, laboratory tests, imaging tests or a consultation with an anaesthetist may be required.

Find out about the procedure

It is a good idea to discuss in advance with your surgeon the type of anaesthesia, the expected recovery time, and what to do at home.

Arrange your trip home and your first few days

Following the same-day surgery procedure, you will typically be able to return home within 24 hours; it is therefore important to make arrangements in advance for someone to accompany you, and to ensure you have a comfortable place to rest at home.

Follow your doctor’s instructions before and after the operation

Following advice on meals, taking medication or physical activity can help ensure your care is safe and that your recovery goes smoothly.

FAQ

Will I really be able to go home the same day after the procedure?

In many cases of same-day surgery procedures, patients can go home the same day following a short period of observation. This is subject to the patient’s general condition being stable and the medical team deeming it safe for them to leave.

No. Same-day surgery is recommended in cases where the nature of the procedure, the type of anaesthesia and the patient’s condition allow them to return home after a short period of observation. The choice of the appropriate form of care is always a decision for a specialist.

Thanks to modern surgical and anaesthetic techniques, as well as carefully planned assessments and follow-up, many procedures can be performed safely on an outpatient basis.

Date of discharge is determined by the patient’s condition being stable, rather than ‘shortening’ the recovery period. In many cases, a home environment may be more comfortable, but it is important to closely follow medical instructions.

Yes. Organised follow-up care forms part of the same-day surgery process, during which follow-up examinations or further treatment are provided if necessary.

This depends on the type of procedure and the individual healing process. In all cases, your doctor will provide you with personalised information regarding the expected recovery time.
