Frequently Asked Questions · FAQ
Q: How many days is the typical hospital stay after orthopedic surgery?
A: • Surgeries such as joint replacement (knee/hip) and minimally invasive spinal fusion typically require a hospital stay of 5–7 days.
• Minimally invasive surgeries like arthroscopy and foot/ankle orthopedics usually require a hospital stay of 2–5 days.
• The specific duration will be assessed and determined by the attending physician based on individual recovery.
Q: How long do I need to stay in Suzhou after surgery?
A: • For joint replacement (knee/hip), a stay of 14–28 days is recommended for suture removal, follow-up examinations, and rehabilitation training.
• For minimally invasive spine surgery, shoulder arthroscopy, and foot/ankle orthopedics, a stay of 10–14 days is recommended.
• For minor surgeries such as sports medicine arthroscopy, a stay of 7–10 days is recommended.
Q: Can I fly 15 days after surgery?
A: • For short-haul flights (3–4 hours), it is safe to return home 14–15 days after surgery, provided the wound is stable and recovery is good as assessed by the doctor.
• For long-haul flights (over 10 hours), it is recommended to depart 21–28 days after surgery, when the risk of thrombosis is low and the wound is stable and recovery is good as assessed by the doctor, allowing for safe travel.
Q: Why is it recommended to stay longer for long-haul flights?
A:
• The first 3 weeks after orthopedic surgery are a high-risk period for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limbs. Prolonged sitting for over 5 hours increases the risk.
• Staying longer allows the wound to stabilize, swelling to subside, and necessary rehabilitation exercises to be completed, ensuring travel safety.
Q: Where is convenient to stay after being discharged from the hospital if not staying in the hospital?
A: We recommend staying in hotels or serviced apartments near BenQ Hospital. Serviced apartments can be rented monthly. The hospital is within a 10-minute walk, making it convenient for follow-up appointments, suture removal, and rehabilitation guidance.
Q: Do I need to come back to China for follow-up after returning to my home country?
A: No. The hospital will provide a complete post-operative rehabilitation guide, surgical records, and imaging data. Patients can undergo follow-up examinations at their local medical institutions, and the international department also offers remote online follow-up services.
Q: Do I need a certificate from the hospital to fly?
A: • This is not legally mandatory, but international airlines typically require medical documentation for post-operative passengers.
• Without relevant medical information, especially for patients using crutches, wearing braces, or undertaking long-haul flights, boarding may be denied at check-in, affecting travel plans.
Q: What is the purpose of the "Fit to Fly Certificate" issued by the hospital? Does the hospital assume responsibility?
A:
• This certificate is a “Fit-to-Fly Certificate” used for airline check-in to confirm that the patient’s current medical condition meets the requirements for air travel.
• It serves only as an objective medical assessment and does not imply that the hospital assumes responsibility for all circumstances during the flight. This is a globally recognized standard for medical documentation.
