We found that 10 out of 15 patients were able to be discharged on postoperative day zero, with the remaining 5 in the INB group being able to be discharged on postoperative day one.
Historically, the NEST procedure has been associated with a significant amount of pain, and this pain leads to increased hospital lengths of stay, which increase hospital costs.
