Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficiency of outpatient surgery compared to conventional hospitalization in endovascular treatment of occlusive arterial disease. A cost-utility analysis will be conducted from a societal perspective. Patients referred for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) will be randomized in two arms and a 3 months follow-up will be performed.
Detailed Description:
Rationale for ambulatory hospitalization is based on increased demand of hospital care, hospital budgets constraints and patients who ask for a prompt recovery. Consequently, physicians should find ways to optimize the resources' allocation, without compromising quality, safety and efficiency of patient care. Several studies and routine practice have shown that ambulatory hospitalization was safe but we are still lacking evidence to demonstrate the cost-utility of this kind of management.
