Anaesthesia Associated Peri-Operative Adverse Effects During In-Patient and Outpatient Procedures.

Abstract

Background: This research had been carried out to evaluate anaesthesia associated peri-operative adverse effects.

Material and methods: This study included a total of 100 anaesthetic operations. The participants were requested to provide consent. The study included respondents who willingly provided consent, while those who were uninterested in participating or giving consent were eliminated. The negative occurrences had been observed. The statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS program.

Results: The predominant adverse event encountered was perioperative cardiac arrest, which was observed in 21 individuals, followed by unexpected difficult airway, which was observed in 14 individuals. Perioperative pulmonary aspiration was noted in 12 individuals. Stroke/coma was observed in 5 individuals, and malignant hyperthermia was observed in 1 individual. A total of 53 complications were documented.

Conclusion: The predominant perioperative complication observed was cardiac arrest, succeeded by instances of unexpectedly challenging airway management. Additional complications included pulmonary aspiration, stroke or coma, and malignant hyperthermia.
