Characteristics of studies

Characteristics of included studies [ordered by study ID]

Castells 2001

Methods

Prospective unmasked randomised clinical trial
Allocation 1 month prior to surgery, concealment by central allocation

Participants

People with cataract from 3 public hospitals in Barcelona (Spain)
n = 1162. After randomisation, n = 1034 (out‐patients: n = 518, in‐patients: n = 516)
Withdrawals: 99. Completed trial: out‐patients 464 (89.6%), in‐patients 471 (91.3%)
Mean age (SD): day care 71.6 years (10.7), in‐patients 71.4 years (9.7)
Gender (female): day care: 270 (58.2%), in‐patients: 278 (59%)

Interventions

Extracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation performed as day‐care and extracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation performed in hospital

Outcomes

Postoperative surgical complications (24‐hour postoperative)
Late postoperative surgical complications (between 24 hours and 4 months)
Visual acuity of the operated and better eye 4 months postoperative, change in visual acuity pre‐postoperative

Notes

Only 17.5% of the day care and 16% of the in‐patients underwent phacoemulsification

Risk of bias

Bias

Authors' judgement

Support for judgement

Random sequence generation (selection bias)

Low risk

Quote: "The randomisation was generated by computerised simple random number software"

Comment: done

Allocation concealment (selection bias)

Low risk

Quote: "performed centrally by our research unit"

Comment: done

Blinding (performance bias and detection bias)
All outcomes

Unclear risk

Quote: "An unmasked randomised clinical trial"

Participants: not feasible

Healthcare providers: not feasible

Outcomes assessors and data analysts:

Quote: "the outpatient hospital group..were discharged home the same day after a visit by an ophthalmologist. They had an outpatient visit with an ophthalmologist 24h after surgery"

"In the inpatient hospital group, patients were admitted to an acute care hospital for at least one night after surgery and received hospital visit(s) by an ophthalmologist before hospital discharge"

Comment: while the masking of participants and healthcare providers may not have been feasible, the masking of outcomes assessors was possible and of significant importance in this trial. The trial report was unclear what steps were taken to limit the effects of performance bias

Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias)
All outcomes

Low risk

The report included a "trial randomisation flowchart"

Quote: "The results of the study have been analysed according to the intention to treat"

Comment: done

Selective reporting (reporting bias)

Low risk

All of the study's pre‐specified outcomes were reported

Other bias

Low risk

The study appeared to be free of other sources of bias

Galin 1981

Methods

Prospective randomised controlled trial

Participants

Country of origin: USA
n = 273, 23 refused. n = 250 age‐matched (aged 50‐79 years) people with cataracts, in‐patients: n = 82, day care: n = 168
No attritional losses over 2‐year follow‐up period

Interventions

Cataract extraction with or without a Sputnik intraocular lens

Randomised to hospital or hotel or immediate discharge to home

Outcomes

Duration and cost per day of stay in hospital or hotel reported

Notes

Data sparse largely narrative style

Risk of bias

Bias

Authors' judgement

Support for judgement

Random sequence generation (selection bias)

Low risk

Quote: "Using tables of coded random numbers"

Comment: done

Allocation concealment (selection bias)

Low risk

Quote: "The surgeon did not know preoperatively in which category a patient belonged." "On the day of surgery, the patient reported to the registration office at the hospital, where a hospital chart number was assigned". "At the end of the procedure, the eye was patched and we opened a sealed envelope that indicated the patient's postoperative location"

Comment: done

Blinding (performance bias and detection bias)
All outcomes

Unclear risk

Participants: not feasible

Healthcare providers: "The surgeon did not know preoperatively in which category a patient belonged"

Outcomes assessors and data analysts: it was unclear if the outcomes assessors, which may have included the surgeons, knew which of the participants had been hospitalised or had been assigned to day care, at the follow‐up assessment on the day after surgery

Comment: masking of assessors was 'unclear'

Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias)
All outcomes

Unclear risk

Data sparse largely narrative style

Selective reporting (reporting bias)

Unclear risk

Quote: the objectives of the study were, "cataract patients were studied to determine if hospitalization was required for cataract extraction"

Comment: 'ocular results' and postoperative complications were not specified. The report did not include the results for these key outcomes that would be expected to have been reported

Other bias

Unclear risk

Insufficient information to assess whether an important risk of bias existed

n: number of participants; SD: standard deviation.

Characteristics of excluded studies [ordered by study ID]

Study

Reason for exclusion

Cabric 2014

The study randomised people to a day care cataract surgery (DCCS) group and an out‐patient and in‐patient surgery group. The paper reported that, "All patients in DCCS group were discharged day after cataract extraction." We have excluded this study as participants were not treated as day care attendees

Ingram 1980

No intraocular lens implantation was carried out and study used the intracapsular cataract extraction technique, which is considered obsolete. Thus, the study cannot be relied on in a comparison with the current technique of extracapsular cataract extraction

Lowe 1992

This study only considered suitability for day case cataract surgery and did not include a comparison of in‐patient versus day case cataract surgery

Percival 1992

Unable to assess trial quality and unable to obtain further information from authors

Rose 1999

The study compared day stay participants in a peripheral clinic and a main eye hospital. All participants were treated as day stay
