Abstract

ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND:
Recovery speed and quality from general anesthesia has been proposed as possible measure of quality of anesthesia. Recovery is affected by many factors; patient status, drugs used, surgical procedure and time of it.
OBJECTIVE:
To assess the effect of using pressure support ventilation at the end of surgery on the recovery from general anesthesia in extra peritoneal surgery.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
100 patients had enrolled in study from 1st/11/2014 till 20th/1/2016 in medical city complex hospitals.
All patients were received general anesthesia with endotracheal tube and same anesthetic management and considering score of 10/10 from modified aldrete criteria as aim in recovery. Patients were divided into two groups:
50 patients had received pressure support ventilation at end of surgery.
Other 50 patients had continued with muscle relaxant and controlled mechanical ventilation.
RESULT:
Patients with support ventilation had shorter recovery time 11.8 min than those with controlled ventilation 17.7min,this was statistically significant P value was 0.000 and clinically of importance by decreasing recovery time and decrease use of reversal of muscle relaxant.
CONCLUSION:
Pressure support ventilation at the end of surgery enhances recovery and decrease time of stay recovery site.
