Statement on the lower age limit for outpatient adenotomies and tonsillotomies
Thieme. All rights reserved..
At the beginning of 2023, there have been significant changes to the regulations for outpatient surgery in Germany, which were set out in a trilateral self-administration agreement between the umbrella association of statutory health insurance companies, the German Hospital Association and the Federal Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians. Among other things, a catalog stated circumstances under which an operation should not be carried out on an outpatient basis or should only be carried out with doubt. This catalog explains the patient's age: up to the first year of life, inpatient performance of a service can be justified. This formulation in itself means that children from one year of age on should regularly undergo outpatient surgery.In the german scientific societies for otolaryngology, head and neck surgery as well as for anesthesiology and intensive care medicine, doubts arose as to whether this age limit could also be scientifically justified for operations in the throat such as adenotomy or tonsillotomy.A search was carried out in international guidelines and in the international literature and the statements were evaluated. The results of this literature search were discussed with representatives of the Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology Working Group (AG PädHNO) of the German Society for Otorhinolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery (DGHNO-KHC) and the scientific working group for pediatric anesthesia (WAKKA) of the German Society for Anesthesiology and Intensive Care Medicine (DGAI) in conferences.The consensus revealed that a strict age limit of the first year of life is not appropriate for the outpatient performance of adenotomies and tonsillotomies. First of all, specifying a strict age limit is questionable because, regardless of age, a number of other medical and social factors influence the responsible performance of outpatient operations. Furthermore, the age limit of one year is not considered appropriate in view of literature, guidelines and practical experience in the international area. The assessment of the literature and the consideration of the implementation in the international area make an age limit in the range of 2-3 years seem more appropriate.This review provides the responsible doctors with a variety of insights, aspects and arguments so that they can make their decision to carry out these operations on an outpatient or inpatient basis appropriately and responsibly.
