Clinical benefits of robotic-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) suggest that it may be a reasonable and appealing alternative to traditional open radical cystectomy (ORC). However, limited data exist regarding complication, readmission, and cost comparisons between the two approaches. Our two research questions for this study were: (1) During the 30-day perioperative period, does robotic-assisted radical cystectomy demonstrate cost-to-patient savings, reduced complications, and reduced readmissions compared to the open approach? (2) What predicts complication, readmission, or total cost-to-patient following robotic or open cystectomy? 000007648 650__ $$aCystectomy$$028550 000007648 650__ $$aPostoperative Complications$$024462 000007648 650__ $$aPatient Readmission$$023674 000007648 650__ $$aRobotics$$025584 000007648 650__ $$aCosts and Cost Analysis$$017146 000007648 650__ $$aUrinary Bladder Neoplasms$$015624 000007648 691__ $$aOHSU-PSU School of Public Health$$041366 000007648 7001_ $$aFlamiatos, Jason 000007648 8564_ $$97cd3380c-1c70-4b1a-accf-ef896216d679$$s1169643$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7648/files/Flamiatos.Jason.2017.pdf 000007648 905__ $$a/rest/prod/p8/41/8n/85/p8418n85d 000007648 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:7648$$pstudent-work 000007648 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations 000007648 980__ $$aDual Author Affiliations Cleanup
