Comparison of Two Sitting Durations During Saddle Anesthesia on Discharge Readiness in Perianal Surgery
Conditions: Saddle Block Anesthesia, Readiness of Discharge, Quality of Recovery (QoR-15)
Sex: All
Ages: 21 Years – 65 Years
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 66
Sponsor: Cairo University
Location: Cairo University Cairo Cairo Governorate
Summary
Most minor perianal surgeries are performed as day-case procedures requiring rapid recovery and effective symptom control. Saddle block anesthesia (SBA) provides reliable perineal anesthesia with minimal hemodynamic and motor effects, promoting faster recovery than general anesthesia. However, the duration of sitting after intrathecal injection influences anesthetic spread, and the optimal sitting time to balance adequate anesthesia with early discharge remains unclear.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* Adult patients (21-65 years), ASA I-III undergoing perianal surgery.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Severe cardiac morbidities (impaired contractility with ejection fraction \< 40%, heart block, arrhythmias, tight valvular lesions)
* Contraindication to neuraxial anesthesia such as coagulopathy and local infection
* Pregnant or lactating women,
* Allergy of any of the study drugs
