  Purpose

Study of time usage of anesthesia team inside the main operating room compares between 2 groups of

  • Performing regional anesthesia inside the operating room
  • Performing regional anesthesia in the block room

Study purpose: How much will the investigators save time in the main operating room if we perform the regional anesthesia in the block room?


Condition Intervention
Anesthesia
Time
 Procedure: regional anesthesia

Study Type: Observational
Study Design: Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
Official Title: Can the Usage of Regional Block Room Save the Time of Anesthesia Team in the Main Orthopedic Operating Room?

Further study details as provided by Mahidol University:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • anesthesia-controlled time [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    anesthesia-controlled time = anesthesia pre-procedure time + anesthesia post-procedure time


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • turnover time [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    turnover time = time new patient-in minus previous patient-out

  • number of elective cases after 4PM [ Time Frame: 3 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    number of the elective cases that will be running after 4 PM


Estimated Enrollment: 800
Study Start Date: October 2011
Estimated Study Completion Date: July 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: May 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
RA in block room
Performing regional anesthesia in the block room
 Procedure: regional anesthesia
regional anesthesia procedure
Other Names:
  • neuraxial block
  • peripheral nerve block
RA inside OR
Performing regional anesthesia inside the main orthopedic operating room
 Procedure: regional anesthesia
regional anesthesia procedure
Other Names:
  • neuraxial block
  • peripheral nerve block

Detailed Description:

Anesthesia-controlled time means anesthesia pre-procedure time plus anesthesia post-procedure time.

We also compares the anesthesia-controlled time in 3 groups of

  • general anesthesia
  • regional anesthesia
  • general anesthesia combined with regional anesthesia
