Abstract
The use of short-acting anesthetics has introduced a "fast-track anesthesia" concept in outpatient surgery which provides discharge of the patients from operation room directly to the phase II recovery area without entering into postanesthesia care unit. The aim of this prospective and randomized study was to compare general anesthesia using sevoflurane with propofol-remifentanil-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) for fast-track eligibility in patients undergoing outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The secondary aim was to compare 2 discharge scoring systems: White's Fast-Tracking Scoring System (WFTSS) and Modified Aldrete Scoring Systems (MASS) with regard to postanesthesia care unit bypass rate and postoperative problems.
After obtaining ethical approval and written informed patient consent, 80 patients were randomly assigned into 2 groups: group sevoflurane (n=40) and group TIVA (n=40). Anesthesia was induced with propofol, fentanyl, and rocuronium in both groups and maintained with sevoflurane in group sevoflurane and with remifentanil-propofol in group TIVA. Fast-track eligibility was evaluated using both WFTSS and MASS while patients were discharged from operation room according to WFTSS. Recovery times, number of fast-track eligible patients, factors related to fast-track ineligibility, and perioperative complications were evaluated.
The ratio of fast-track eligible patients was higher and times to fast-track eligibility were shorter in group TIVA compared with group sevoflurane (82.1% vs 57.5% and 8 minutes vs 12 minutes; P<.05). The primary factors that have inhibited fast-tracking were desaturation, hemodynamic instability, pain, and postoperative nausea and vomiting, respectively. Postoperative nausea and vomiting presented a major difference in the rate of fast-track ineligibility between groups (4 patients in group sevoflurane, whereas none in group TIVA; P<.05). The fast-track ratio was lower with the WFTSS compared with MASS in group sevoflurane (57.5% vs 77.5%, P<.05), but similar in group TIVA.
