Core Tip

Core Tip: Ambulatory surgical procedures have the advantages of high efficiency, high-quality services, low medical costs, and short hospital stays while providing sufficient guarantees in terms of medical quality, safety, and rapidity. However, there is some room for improvement. This study proposed a management model based on the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery, which was safe and feasible in ambulatory pediatric surgeries, accelerating postoperative ambulation, relieving postoperative pain, reducing the incidence of postoperative complications, and improving family satisfaction. This model provided a better management option for ambulatory pediatric surgical procedures.
