The incidence of severe neurologic complications from spinal anesthesia in San Diego County in a series of 32,882 cases in a five-year period was 0.012 per cent. Morbidity of 1 in 10,000 cases compares favorably with morbidity associated with general anesthesia. Meticulous technique and abandonment of continuous spinal anesthesia can further reduce the incidence of complications. More emphasis should be placed on the elimination of preexisting neurologic disease as a contraindication to spinal anesthesia.
在圣地亚哥县,五年期间32,882例连续病例中,脊髓麻醉导致严重神经并发症的发生率为0.012%。每10,000例病例中的发病率与全身麻醉相关的发病率相比具有优势。细致的技术操作以及放弃连续脊髓麻醉可进一步降低并发症的发生率。应更加重视消除已存在的神经疾病作为脊髓麻醉禁忌证的情况。
