Does a fast-track surgery protocol improve recovery and reduce morbidity in patients undergoing bimaxillary orthognathic surgery?
A fast-track protocol for orthognathic surgery was developed based on a literature review to potentially improve patient outcomes and shorten hospital stay.
Mommaerts et al. (2017) conducted a review in Orthognathic surgery. Fast-track surgery protocol vs. Standard care was evaluated on Establishment of an evidence-based fast-track protocol. An evidence-based fast-track protocol for orthognathic surgery was developed to improve patient recovery, decrease morbidity, and shorten hospital stay.
