Abstract: Ambulatory surgery is defined as an operation/procedure where the patient is discharged on the same working day. Ambulatory surgical hospitalization significantly increases the turnover rate of hospital beds and the utilization ratio of medical resources, reduces the hospital acquired infection, accelerates patients' recovery and lowers the hospitalization expenses. It has become a rising medical service for some patients who need only simple or less complicated surgical treatments. Since multiple parts including surgical operation, anesthesia and perioperative nursing are involved, ambulatory surgical hospitalization in China is still in a primary stage. Ambulatory oral and maxillofacial surgery only being carried out in some hospitals and has not been popularized so far, owing to lack of standardized processes consensus and guidelines. In order to promote the development and popularization of ambulatory oral and maxillofacial surgical hospitalization, experts from 15 medical institutions were assembled by the Chinese Ambulatory Surgery Alliance and Chinese Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery to discuss and formulate this consensus, referring to successful experiences in foreign countries and based on our national situation. With a view to the adoption of this consensus, we are hoping to provide a theoretical and practical guidance and reference for ambulatory oral and maxillofacial surgical hospitalization in China.
