Summary

Arthroscopic Shoulder surgery can be done not only under general anesthesia but also regional technics. In this study we aimed to compare the cost and time effectiveness of regional anesthesia and general anesthesia.

Detailed description

In our routine practice, ultrasound guided brachial plexus blocks or general anesthesia can be used during shoulder surgery. This retrospective study is designed to investigate the data of the patients who underwent arthroscopic shoulder between 01.09.2021-01.09.2022 at Samsun University Education and Research Hospital. As well as patients' demographic data, presence of additional diseases, operation indications, duration of surgery, intraoperative medical agents that are used, duration of hospital stay will be collected from patients files.Fees for materials used for general anesthesia and regional anesthesia will be determined. A fixed cost will be determined for the use of the operating room, including the salaries of the healthcare workers. After final calculation of both of the group costs statistical analysis will be made.
