Going home the same day after weight loss surgery

This trial is testing whether it's safe and practical for patients to go home on the same day they have weight loss surgery — either a sleeve gastrectomy or gastric bypass — instead of staying in the hospital overnight. Researchers want to understand how often patients need emergency care within a week after same-day discharge, and whether sending people home right away costs less than keeping them in the hospital.

Weight loss surgery typically requires an overnight hospital stay, which is expensive and may not be necessary for all patients. This trial exists to find out if carefully selected patients can recover safely at home, which could reduce costs and improve convenience without compromising safety.
