AB108. SOH21AS192. Maximising day case surgery in the coronavirus disease (COVID) era: a case in point

Background: The coronavirus disease (COVID) era has brought with it economic, social and substantial healthcare challenges, none more so than maximising the efficient utilisation of capacity and limit resources and is the premise of this study. St. James’s Hospital is a tertiary referral centre for Barrett’s endotherapy, but does not have dedicated day case surgery access. Current practice is to book time sensitive cancer operations [such as endoscopic mucosal resections (EMR)] into the earliest available slot.
