However, the long-term postoperative complications of TOF have become important prognostic factors. The most common complication of pulmonary regurgitation (PR) may lead to right ventricular dysfunction, exercise intolerance, arrhythmia and even sudden death. As an effective treatment for PR, pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) includes surgical pulmonary valve replacement (SPVR), percutaneous pulmonary valve replacement (PPVR) and hybrid therapy. Bioprosthetic valve has remained a primary choice of substituting pulmonary valve. With the improvements of anticoagulation regimens, mechanical valve has its own applicable population and anticoagulation regimens after PVR are also inconsistent.

Two modes were day surgery (day group, n=324) and inpatient hospitalization surgery (special group, n=65). The inter-group differences in general patient data, treatment index, fault tolerance, incidence of postoperative complications, recurrence rate and hospital infection were compared. And the inter-group differences in Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey satisfaction, hospitalization stay, hospitalization cost and other health economic indicators were compared.
