Spinal Anesthesia for Outpatients' Surgeries

Abstract

Background: The term "outpatient surgery" has become a common procedure in most hospitals around the world. On other hand, Spinal aesthesia can mimic the outcome sought by the principle of outpatient surgeries since it takes a short time to recover and limits the need for post-operative pain medication Therefore, the objective of this study is to focus on finding a method to reduce the side effects that commonly accompany the procedure of spinal aesthesia and to avoid the possible hemodynamic changes that may occur.
 Methods: The method for the study will be a narrative review of various medical journals, conferences papers, and unpublished documents using the dual keywords, outpatient surgeries spinal aesthesia, and ambulatory aesthesia, we include in this research thirty-one original articles, fifty-three reviews articles, two books, three handbooks, and two guidelines searched in the deferent database (google scholar, Research gate, pub med, science direct).
 Results: Consideration should be given to the quality of patients who participate in outpatient concepts. Finally, in terms of cost, side effects, and patient satisfaction, the spinal aesthetic approach gives a favourable outcome since it covers post-operative time without the need for analgesia and reduces the percentage of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and reduces the time staying in the hospital.
 Conclusions: In conclusion, the study discovered that a major proportion of surgeries performed over our lifetimes are outpatient procedures. Therefore, Discharge criteria should be posed with one precise criterion. There is no standard protocol to serve these types of surgeries and patients. The only criteria found and practiced served general conditions for outpatients and inpatients. There have been several attempts to create a protocol that can meet the pleasing outcome of outpatient surgeries. Consequently, we need more research to cover this lack and serve the Genuine needs of a protocol to define the criteria and categories that concern the term outpatient and outpatient surgeries and lead to improving the quality of outpatient surgeries with fewer side effects and minimum hemodynamic changes.
