Actual (reported)Patients undergoing elbow arthroscopy surgery will receive standard anesthesia and analgesia (infraclavicular nerve block combined with general anesthesia for surgery; continuous infusion via infraclavicular catheter to day 3 post op). Patients in the experimental group will be discharged home after one day, with infraclavicular catheter in place; patients in the comparator group will stay in hospital for 3 or 4 days, per standard practice. The study will compare range of motion as the primary endpoint, in a non-inferiority design, to see if early discharge is feasible while providing similar recovery.

Actual (reported)Range of Motion
Range of motion at the elbow will be measured vs. baseline to determine surgical success.
1 year
Post-operative analgesia
3 days
Patients will be discharged home on the first day after surgery, with infraclavicular catheter infusion of local anesthetic in place.
Patients will remain in hospital and be discharged per current discharge criteria, once the infraclavicular catheter has been removed on day 3 post op. Typical discharge occurs on day 3 or 4 post op.
Patients undergoing elbow arthroscopy surgery will receive standard anesthesia/analgesia, including infraclavicular nerve block and general anesthesia for surgery followed by infraclavicular catheter infusion of local anesthetic until day 3 after surgery.

Safety of an Early Discharge Protocol After Sleeve Gastrectomy
Patients will be discharged home on the first day after surgery, with infraclavicular catheter infusion of local anesthetic in place.
Patients will remain in hospital and be discharged per current discharge criteria, once the infraclavicular catheter has been removed on day 3 post op. Typical discharge occurs on day 3 or 4 post op.
