Brief Summary:
The aim of this prospective and observational study is to describe the conditions of orthognathic procedures performed in Toulouse Teaching Hospital over a one-year period, the outpatient-to-inpatient shifts rate and the whole outpatient rate among the whole orthognathic procedures done. The investigator also wants to identify factors associated with an outpatient-to-inpatient shift, and factors associated with the duration of hospitalization.
Detailed Description:
In Toulouse Teaching Hospital, the annual number of orthognathic surgery outpatient stays was multiplied by 6 since 2010, indicating a new trend of theses procedures. Outpatient stays presents several advantages for the patient and for the health system: decrease of the psychological stress, higher satisfaction, minimization of the personal and domestic activity interruption, less exposure to nosocomial infections, decrease of global costs, increase of the population rate which can be treated. However, very few data report the experience of outpatient orthognathic surgery in France and the factors associated with its success or failure.
The choice of ambulatory versus complete hospitalization is decided during preoperative consultation by the surgeon in agreement with the patient. The classic surgical and anesthetic protocol of orthognathic surgery is applied whatever the type of hospitalization. The data are collected from the patient medical record (electronic patient record, orthognathic follow-up form, anesthetic sheet) and from a patient quality of life questionnaire. There is no modification of the usual follow-up, patients are seen at D-8 which is the end-study visit.
