Postoperative urinary retention (POUR) is a common and vexing complication in elective spine surgery. Efficacious prevention strategies are still lacking, and existing studies focus primarily on identifying risk factors. Spinal anesthesia has become an attractive alternative to general anesthesia in elective lumbar surgery, with the potential of having a differential impact on POUR.422 spinal anesthesia procedures were prospectively collected between 2017 and 2021 and compared to 416 general anesthesia procedures retrospectively collected between 2014 and 2017, at a single academic center by the same senior neurosurgeon. The main outcome was POUR, defined as the need for straight bladder catheterization or indwelling bladder catheter placement after surgery due to failure to void. A power calculation was performed prior to data collection.The general anesthesia group had a higher rate of POUR (9.1 %) compared with the spinal anesthesia group (4.3 %), p = 0.005. At baseline, the spinal anesthesia cohort had an older average age and fewer patients with a history of previous spine surgery. Other comorbid conditions were comparable between the groups. For perioperative characteristics, spinal anesthesia patients had higher ASA scores, shorter operative times, shorter lengths of hospital stay, less operative levels, and zero use of intraoperative bladder catheterization. Acute pain service consult was similar between the groups. A multivariable logistic regression revealed that spinal anesthesia was associated with a significantly lower rate of urinary retention in the spinal anesthesia group (p = 0.0130), after adjusting for potentially confounding factors. Other statistically significant risk factors for POUR included diabetes, (p = 0.003), BPH (p = 0.014), operative time (p = 4.94e-06), and ASA score (p = 0.005).We collect and analyze one of the largest available cohorts of patients undergoing simple and complex surgeries under spinal and general anesthesia, finding that spinal anesthesia is independently associated with a lower incidence of POUR compared to general anesthesia, even when adjusted for potentially confounding risk factors. Further prospective trials are needed to explore this finding. |
