Ultra–fast track hospital discharge using conventional cardiac surgical techniques1  Salim Walji, MD, Richard J Peterson, MD, Pat Neis, RN, Robert DuBroff, MD, William A Gray, MD, William Benge, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 67, Issue 2, Pages 363-369 (February 1999) DOI: 10.1016/S0003-4975(99)00034-X

Fig 1 Postoperative length of stay (LOS) of the 258 patients, showing the number of patients discharged on each postoperative day. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1999 67, 363-369DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(99)00034-X)

Fig 2 The ages for all the patients are shown. The overlap in the age range between the ultra–fast track (Ultra-FT) and the non–ultra–fast track (Non-UFT) groups is evident. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1999 67, 363-369DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(99)00034-X)

Fig 3 Preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LEVF) in the 258 patients is plotted against the respective postoperative day of discharge. A trend line is also depicted. The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1999 67, 363-369DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(99)00034-X)

Fig 4 Number of readmissions occurring among the 144 ultra–fast track (UFT) discharged patients, grouped according to their original postoperative day (POD) of discharge, and the reasons leading to readmission are shown. (GI = gastrointestinal; MVA = motor vehicle accident.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1999 67, 363-369DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(99)00034-X)
