ERAS early postoperative phase
This publication provides a comprehensive review of the use of different anesthesia techniques in breast surgery and their impact on postoperative pain and recovery. The study found that local anesthesia, intercostal block, and sedation are all effective options for breast surgery, with each technique having its own advantages and disadvantages. Patients who underwent surgery under local anesthesia or intercostal block experienced less pain and had a faster recovery time compared to those who received sedation. The study also found that the use of opioids for pain management after surgery can be reduced by using these alternative anesthesia techniques. Overall, the study highlights the importance of personalized anesthesia plans for breast surgery patients, taking into account individual patient needs and preferences. By offering a range of anesthesia options and tailoring them to each patient, plastic and aesthetic surgery practices can improve patient outcomes and satisfaction. The study’s findings can be used to inform clinical practice and improve patient care in the field of breast surgery.
