| Popis: | Background To investigate the applicability of the combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA) method in RIRS for the treatment of kidney stone disease and also to compare with general anesthesia (GA) in terms of their effects on early postoperative pain levels and their cost. Methods A hundred consecutive patients who were scheduled for RIRS were enrolled in this study and were prospectively evaluated according to the anesthesia methods. Patients were divided into 2 groups randomly: the GA (N.=50) and CSEA (N.=50) groups. Five patients were excluded due to patient incompatibility or inadequate anesthesia. The pain levels of patients in the Group 2 were recorded during the operation using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at minutes 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60. Peak pain levels within the first 24 hours following the operation were recorded for both groups. Results Ninety five patients in the two groups were determined to be similar in terms of demographic characteristics. The mean VAS score at the postoperative 1st day was found as 1.20±0.9 for Group 1 and 0.82±1.3 for Group 2. No statistically significant differences were identified between the VAS-nram and VAS-ram groups (P=0.450). The total cost of anesthesia medications was similar between the both groups. Conclusions Combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, which produces favorable outcomes in the intraoperative and postoperative periods, will become an alternative to general anesthesia. Also, the costs associated with these two anesthesia methods were calculated, it was found that the total cost of anesthesia medications and materials per operation was similar both methods. |
