Abstract
Information is evolving on the safety of same-day discharge (SDD) after left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) procedures. This single-centre retrospective study evaluated the feasibility of SDD and reported on the 30-day rehospitalization rate in patients discharged same-day compared with those admitted overnight after LAAO. Key findings of this study included more than 85% of patients with LAAO were safely discharged same-day; the rate of postdischarge rehospitalization was similar in SDD patients and those admitted overnight; and approximately 1 in 10 patients who had LAAO procedures were rehospitalized within 30 days postprocedure.
