General Anesthesia Control Mode Versus Local Anesthesia with Intravenous Sedation for Day Care Laparoscopic Tubal Ligation

Abstract

Comparative study has been undertaken to evaluate the anaesthetic techniques either by General anaesthesia with control mode (GA) or Local anaesthesia with intravenous sedation (LA) in laparoscopic tubal ligation in 60 female patients in the age group of 20 to 30 years. All were American Society of Anaesthesiology grade 1 & divided equally into two Groups of 30 each. Group with GA has longer induction to skin incision time (p< 0.001) and higher incidence of post operative nausea and vomiting than Group with LA (p<0.001).
