To determine unbiased patient preferences for either spinal or general anesthesia for upcoming surgeries.
Prior to contact with anesthesia personnel, a simple questionnaire was completed by surgical patients to determine their demographic characteristics and previous anesthetic experiences. Their concerns regarding a list of complications of general and spinal anesthesia and their preferences for general or spinal anesthesia if either method could be used were also determined.
University-affiliated suburban community hospital.
The survey was completed by 254 patients. A preference for general over spinal anesthesia was expressed by 80.2% of the patients responding. They expressed significantly more concerns regarding nausea/vomiting, sore throat, feeling sleepy, and death with general anesthesia than with spinal anesthesia. Concerns of back pain, nerve damage and paralysis were statistically related to spinal anesthesia.
This survey shows a strong patient preference for general anesthesia and a phobia for spinal anesthesia.
确定即将接受手术的患者对脊髓麻醉或全身麻醉的无偏倚偏好。
在与麻醉人员接触之前，手术患者完成一份简单问卷，以确定其人口统计学特征和既往麻醉经历。还确定了他们对全身麻醉和脊髓麻醉一系列并发症的担忧，以及如果两种方法都可用时他们对全身麻醉或脊髓麻醉的偏好。
大学附属郊区社区医院。
254名患者完成了调查。80.2%的应答患者表示更喜欢全身麻醉而非脊髓麻醉。与脊髓麻醉相比，他们对全身麻醉引起的恶心/呕吐、喉咙痛、嗜睡和死亡表现出明显更多的担忧。背痛、神经损伤和瘫痪的担忧与脊髓麻醉在统计学上相关。
这项调查显示患者强烈偏好全身麻醉且对脊髓麻醉存在恐惧。
