Sažetak
Day surgery is a term that refers to performing an operation under anesthesia
without needing to stay in the hospital for more than 24 hours. Day surgery has many advantages
over surgery that involves a multiple-day hospital stay. Anesthesia for day surgery must have a rapid
onset of action, a rapid cessation of action, and be free of, or have minimal side effects. For many years,
general anesthesia was believed to be the anesthesia of choice for day surgery due to the delayed onset
of local anesthetic after spinal anesthesia, a much longer duration of motor function recovery after
surgery with spinal anesthesia compared to general anesthesia, and a more frequent incidence of side
effects with spinal anesthesia, such as urinary retention or post-puncture headache. However, with
the discovery of new, shorter-acting local anesthetics, and the use of smaller-diameter spinal needles,
spinal anesthesia is becoming an equivalent anesthetic option for day surgery, if not a better one. Our
early expiriences with spinal anesthesia in day surgery are excellent.
