This study detects the predictive role of psychiatric disorders as determinants of hospitalization inappropriateness in cataract surgery. The negative correlation between inappropriate hospitalization and conditions such as hypertension and diabetes points out that in the elderly population common diseases are effectively addressed, in contrast to the difficult management of psychiatric patients. Prior systemic interventions represent factors inducing transfer from day service to ordinary hospitalization, highlighting communication problems related to difficult coping with an outpatient surgery setting.
