Jonathan Spicer: Same Day Discharge After Lung Resection – Is It Safe and Feasible?
Jonathan Spicer, Medical Director of the McGill Thoracic Oncology Program, Chest surgeon, Neutrophil biologist, Cancer immunologist, Aspiring farmer, shared a post on X:
“Super proud of our team Mc Gill Thoracic for putting together this trial showing that same day discharge after lung resection, specifically anatomic lung resection, is both safe and feasible!
Would not have been possible without the hard work of Lyndon Walsh and Merav Rokah, as well as our nurses Erin Cronin and Tia Wallace.
Sara Najmeh is now leading our standard of care pathway implementation!”
Drew Moghanaki, Chief Medical Officer at Respirati, shared a post by Jonathan Spicer:
“Say hello to minimally invasive surgery performed without an overnight hospital stay. This makes it almost as convenient as SBRT which can be delivered without a hospital in the first place.”
