Unfamiliar environment, remote locations, and limited access to resources are some of the many challenges faced by the anesthesiologist in this environment. Understanding the environmental factors such as the room layout, machine placement and patient positioning needs advanced planning in the COVID-19 patient to determine airway management, intravenous access and overall patient safety. Communication with the proceduralist and healthcare workers (HCW) is of essence as both the procedure and anesthetic requirements may need to be altered as the case progresses. Standard monitoring guidelines should apply to all patients regardless of depth of anesthesia. The COVID-19 patient adds to these challenges. Aerosol generating medical procedures (AGMP’s) need to be identified ahead of time in order to ensure the safety of both the staff and patients. This allows for planning and preparation required for transportation of the patient to the room. HCWs may need to be identified and be available to assist with the procedure. Time should be allocated for transportation, briefing, room preparation, personal protective equipment needs of the staff and donning and doffing procedures as per institutional protocol. Communication means with staff outside of the room should be discussed in advance should an emergent situation arise during the procedure. Debriefing should be performed at the end of every procedure to improve patient safety and outcomes.展开更多

The investigator called each patient 24-48 h after discharge to administer a standardized questionnaire, to detect any delayed complications. Patients in which cecal intubation was not performed and those who were not found at follow-up phone call were excluded from the study.RESULTS: Thirteen patients(7 in Control-group and6 in PADSS-group) were excluded from the study. Recovery from sedation was faster in PADSS-group than in Control-group(58.75 ± 18.67 min vs 95.14 ± 10.85min, respectively; P < 0.001). Recovery time resulted shorter than 60 min in 39 patients of PADSS-group(37.5%), and in no patient of Control-group(P < 0.001).At follow-up phone call, no patient declared any hospital re-admission because of problems related to colonoscopy and/or sedation. Mild delayed post-discharge symptoms occurred in 57 patients in Control-group(55.3%)and in 32 in PADSS-group(30.7%). The most common symptoms were drowsiness, weakness, abdominal distension, and headache. Only 3 subjects needed to take some drugs because of post-discharge symptoms.CONCLUSION: The Post-Anaesthetic Discharge Scoring System is as safe as the clinical assessment and allows for an earlier patient discharge after colonoscopy performed under sedation.展开更多
