Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to retrospectively analyze data from more than 3000 procedures, to better define the safety profile of spinal prilocaine and the incidence of complications and side effects.
Detailed Description
We designed a retrospective cohort study to analyze the safety profile and the incidence of side effects associated with prilocaine for spinal anesthesia in ambulatory settings. Data will be obtained from an internal database where are prospectively recorded clinical data from spinal anesthesia consecutively performed with prilocaine at our institution for ambulatory surgery from 2011 to 2019. Variables recorded in the database and analyzed will include demographic data, type of surgery, presence of surgical, anesthesiological or general complications, need for unplanned admission and percentage of completed database records.
