Recovery Profiles and Well-Being Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Various Anaesthesia Techniques: A Systematic Review.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: An appropriate anaesthesia technique is considered for the patient's health status to ensure a painless recovery. This study explored the important role of anesthesia selection in improving recovery outcomes and patient well-being across diverse surgical settings.

METHODS

This study employed a systematic literature review methodology. Different databases, including Scopus, Google Scholar, and PubMed, were used to search for potential studies. A total of 20 studies were selected for qualitative analysis.

RESULTS

We found that general anesthesia is widely favored. However, certain procedures stressed the efficacy of spinal and regional approaches in managing pain and promoting faster recovery. Intravenous anesthetics such as propofol and newer agents like remimazolam and ciprofol are associated with improved recovery rates in high-risk patients, providing hemodynamic stability and reducing the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting. Furthermore, Opioid-sparing and xenon-based anesthetics also contributed to better recovery profiles.

CONCLUSION

Anesthesia choice plays a critical role in patient recovery, with tailored techniques enhancing outcomes and reducing adverse effects.
