Major complications of regional anesthesia in 11 teaching hospitals of China: a prospective survey of 106,569 cases.

Abstract:

STUDY OBJECTIVE:To determine the incidence of major complications in patients undergoing regional anesthesia (RA) in China. DESIGN:Multicenter prospective survey. SETTING:Eleven teaching hospitals in China. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTIONS:A total of 106,569 patients undergoing RA from April 1, 2009, to April 30, 2011, were involved. MEASUREMENT:Information on patients, types of surgery, and RA techniques was collected with a standardized chart. After RA, the patients were followed up by an investigator in each center for 1 to 3 weeks according to the patient's condition. Data were integrated and analyzed with a structured query language server system. MAIN RESULTS:Among the patients undergoing RA, 37 developed major complications, including Horner syndrome (n = 9; 0.84/10,000), recurrent laryngeal nerve blockade (n = 6; 0.56/10,000), cardiac arrest (n = 1; 0.09/10,000), hematoma (n = 2; 0.19/10,000), seizures (n = 5; 0.46/10,000), catheter break (n = 1; 0.09/10,000), paraplegia (n = 1; 0.09/10,000), cauda equina syndrome (n = 2; 0.19/10,000), and extensive neuraxial block (n = 10; 0.94/10,000). The incidence of major RA complications varied from 0.8/10,000 to 18.8/10,000 among centers and was highest in cervical plexum block. Plastic surgery had the highest incidence of complications (19.0/10,000), most of which were recurrent extensive neuraxial block. The total incidence of major RA complications was 3.47/10,000. CONCLUSION:This large, multicenter, prospective survey revealed the incidence of major complications after RA in China's hospitals. Although severe complication like cardiac arrest is rare, it is distressing and challenging. Hence, there is still a room to improve on daily basis to further reduce complications related to RA.
