A Prospective Study on Bone Marrow Aspiration/Biopsy under General Anesthesia
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Invasive diagnostic and minor surgical procedures on patients outside the traditional operating room setting have increased in the last decade. Multiple procedures like bone marrow aspiration /biopsy cause pain, stress, depression etc for the patients and their families. Various methods have been recommended for pain reduction during invasive procedures. The aim of this study is to report the complications following general anesthesia. In this prospective observational study, 45 patients were enrolled. All patients received propofol 2.5 mg /kg and fentanyl 1 μg/kg. After adequate anesthesia, procedures were performed by the clinical pathologist. All anesthesia complications were classified into two groups: Intraoperative and Postoperative complications. In this study, 34 males and 11 females underwent general anesthetic procedure. Intraoperative period complications occurred in 7 patients (15.56%). and Postoperative period complications occurred in 9 patients (20%) cases. The most common complications were local bleeding, decrease O2 saturation and bradycardia. To conclude General anesthesia by propofol and fentanyl may be a good choice for short-term painful procedures in patients undergoing bone marrow aspiration/biopsy.
