The anesthesia study of minimally-invasive thyroid surgery with short-stay discharge / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the feasibility,security and efficiency of general anaesthesia compared with regional anaesthesia for minimally-invasive thyroid surgery(MITS)with short-stay discharge.Methods 103 cases undergoing MITS with short-stay discharge from Jan.2013 to Jun.2013 in Fuzhou General Hospital were collected.54 patients were operated under regional anaesthesia and 49 under general anaesthesia.All variables of patients including demographic characteristics,vital signs (blood pressure,heart rate,blood glucose) during the operation,duration and type of operation,postoperative complications,difficulty in airway management and anesthesia consumption were recorded and analyzed.Results There was no difference in respect to level of blood glucose,length of hospital stay,discharge time,patient or operator satisfaction rate,anesthesia or operation complications rate between the two groups.Blood pressure (T1(90 ± 7.0) vs (79 ± 8.3) mmHg,T2(88 ± 6.8) vs (80 ±7.6) mmHg,P ＜0.05) and heart rate(T1(130 ± 18.2) vs(101 ± 12.0)/min,T2(120 ± 19.7) vs(103 ± 13.3)/min,P ＜ 0.05)level were higher,while the recovery time of anesthesia((0.3 ± 0.14)vs(0.8 ± 0.35)h,P ＜ 0.05)) and anesthesia consumption ((1350 ± 78) vs (2580 ± 220) yuan,P ＜ 0.05)) were lower in the regional anaesthesia group compared with those in the general anaesthesia group.Conclusions Both general anaesthesia and regional anaesthesia for MITS with short-stay discharge are safe and effective.General anesthesia has less psychological trauma,while regional anaesthesia has shorter recovery time and lower anesthetic consumption.
