Post-Op Support

Why this matters: Postoperative complications remain common. One study found complications in 31.5% of general surgical patients. More recent national reporting found post-discharge complications increased 12% as hospital stays shortened. A separate study found about 40% of surgical complications occur after discharge, with most happening within 14 days.
Key risks after surgery:
  • Infection, wound breakdown, and delayed healing.
  • Medication confusion, pain mismanagement, and dehydration.
  • Falls, reduced mobility, and avoidable readmission.
  • Blood clots, opioid addiction, pneumonia, opioid induced constipation
    and nerve damage.
