摘要

Outpatient surgery is gaining in importance, not least due to the politically driven structural transformation in the German healthcare system. As a result, more and more trauma surgery and orthopedic procedures as well as corresponding inpatient services are being carried out on an outpatient basis. Assuming a correct selection of suitable patients and a comprehensive outpatient care structure, outpatient surgery is not only less expensive but is also associated with increased patient satisfaction and safety. While other countries already have established outpatient care systems in place, these still need to be developed and expanded in Germany. The outpatient trend in hospital medicine aims to relieve hospitals, create resources and counteract the rising costs in the healthcare system. This requires a financially sustainable, cost-effective and patient-centered approach that does not harm either the patient or the healthcare provider.
