There’s a MAJOR difference between these two types of surgery
.
Elective surgery = a surgical procedure that is less invasive in nature which may require local anesthesia or undergo “same-day” surgery; it is typically “scheduled in advance”
Some examples may include:
Total knee replacement
Superficial skin cell resections
Rotator cuff repair
Nerve ablations
.
Emergency surgery = an immediate surgical procedure that must be performed in order to preserve one’s life; it is NOT a scheduled surgery — it must occur immediately without schedule notice
Some examples may include:
Cardiac stent implants
Appendectomy
Brain bleeds
Sepsis
