Discharge from the hospital may occur in as little as one to two days after the procedure, but may be later
Post laparotomy refers to the period following a surgical procedure called laparotomy, which is an incision into the abdominal cavity to diagnose or treat medical conditions. During the post laparotomy period, patients are closely monitored for complications such as infection, bleeding, and organ dysfunction. Pain management, wound care, and gradual resumption of activities are important components of post laparotomy care.
Immediately following surgery, patients are monitored closely in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the hospital for 24-72 hours. Most patients need to receive oxygen for four to 24 hours following surgery
