The Advantages of Outpatient ACL Reconstruction...

A recent study highlighted some of the advantages of outpatient ACL reconstruction. The study compared levels of discomfort in both inpatient and outpatient ACL reconstructions. During the first night after surgery, the outpatient participants experienced less difficulty sleeping and were less often woken up by pain. Further, the outpatient participants walked more frequently. The study authors concluded outpatient ACL reconstruction is not associated with any additional postoperative discomfort.
