The aim is to set up a protocol for ambulatory care of adult tonsillectomies. Then, it would allow an improvement of the postoperative quality of life for the patient, who prefers a quicker return home.The study aims to allow patients to come back home early after tonsillectomies with intravenous analgesia. Pain, feeding and quality of life will be evaluated regularly through an application called MAELA during a few days after surgery. They will also be evaluated by nurses coming via providers.
