EVALUATION OF DIFFERENT ANESTHETIC TECHNIQUES FOR AMBULATORY GYNECOLOGICAL LAPAROSCOPY

Mohamed Anwar EI-Shafei;

Abstract


The worldwide explosion of Japaroscopic surgery within general surgery began in the late 1980s and early 1990s in order to improve surgical quality, reduce patient trauma, morbidity, mortality, and hospital stay and thereby to reduce healthcare costs.

Over the last two decades, outpatient surgery has grown to an exponential rate, progressing from the practice of simple procedures to a broad spectrum of patient care in ambulatory surgery centers.

Anesthesia and surgical procedures are most cost-effective in outpatient surgical facilities than when the same procedures are performed in the inpatient setting; and because patients are discharged home soon after their operations, specialized skills are required for outpatient anesthesia to meet these specific needs.

Quality, safety, efficiency, and cost of drugs and equipment are important considerations in choosing an anesthetic technique for outpatient surgery.

Our aim of this study is to evaluate different anesthetic techniques (TIVA using propofol and inhalational anesthesia using isoflurane) with three different methods of analgesia in ambulatory gynecologic laparoscopy as regards recovery, discharge criteria, postoperative pain assessment, nausea, vomiting, awareness and their cost-effectiveness.
