🚶♂️ What Delays Ambulation After Prostate Surgery?
A study investigates factors linked to delayed ambulation post-radical prostatectomy in outpatient surgery settings, crucial for improving recovery.
🔍 Key Focus - Analyses BMI and PONV risk for their roles in ambulation delays
🔢 BMI Insight - Higher BMI minimally impacts same-day ambulation
🤢 PONV Risk - High PONV scores significantly double the chance of next-day ambulation
