AIM: Tonsillectomy procedures are a core element of paediatrics; however, perioperative management differs. This study aimed to describe tonsillectomy management, including the burden of pain, nausea and delayed recovery.
METHODS: A prospective cohort study was undertaken through an audit of tonsillectomy perioperative practice and recovery and survey interviews with family members 7-14 days post-surgery. The study was undertaken at an Australian tertiary referral paediatric hospital between June and September 2016.
RESULTS: The audit included 255 children undergoing tonsillectomy, with 127 family members interviewed. Most participants underwent adenotonsillectomy (n = 216; 85%), with a primary diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnoea (n = 205; 80%) and a mean age of 7 years (standard deviation; 3.9). A variety of intra-operative pain relief and antiemetics was administered. Pain was present in 29% (n = 26) of participants at ward return, increasing to 32-45% at 4-20 h and decreasing to 21% (n = 15) at discharge. A third of the children (32%; n = 41) had moderate to severe pain at post-discharge interview, and 30% (n = 38) experienced nausea at home. Most parents (82%; n = 104) were still giving regular paracetamol at 7 days post-operatively, and 31% (n = 39) had finished their oxycodone. Of the participants, 14% (n = 26) presented to the emergency department within 7 days of discharge; 8% (n = 20) of the total cohort were re-admitted.
CONCLUSIONS: There was variety in perioperative and post-discharge care. Pain scores were infrequently documented post-tonsillectomy, and parents are generally dissatisfied with the management of post-operative pain and nausea. Further research is needed to provide a more consistent approach to perioperative management to promote recovery.
