Factors Influencing Duration

Factors that may influence the length of disability include number and severity of postoperative complications (i.e., wound infection, bleeding, abscess, or an adverse reaction to a general anesthetic), amount of blood loss during surgery and postoperatively, success of the surgery, individual's nutritional status and mental and emotional stability, and strength of the individual's support system. The type of procedure performed also influences the length of disability.
