Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) reduced postoperative nausea and vomiting compared to balanced anesthesia during pars plana vitrectomy. TIVA also resulted in lower intraocular pressure, suggesting its suitability for eye surgery.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Anesthesiology

Background:

  • Postoperative nausea, vomiting, and intraocular pressure are critical concerns after pars plana vitrectomy.
  • Comparing anesthetic techniques is essential for optimizing patient outcomes in ophthalmic surgery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with balanced anesthesia for pars plana vitrectomy.
  • To evaluate the impact of antiemetic prophylaxis (DHBP) on postoperative outcomes.
  • To assess the influence of anesthetic techniques on intraocular bleeding and pressure.

Main Methods:

  • Four groups of patients undergoing pars plana vitrectomy were studied.
  • Anesthesia was administered via orotracheal intubation using either TIVA or balanced anesthesia.
  • Half of the patients in each group received antiemetic prophylaxis with 2.5 mg DHBP.

Main Results:

  • TIVA groups showed significantly lower rates of postoperative nausea and vomiting (16%) compared to balanced anesthesia groups (43.5%).
  • DHBP reduced nausea and vomiting but not significantly.
  • Intraocular pressure was significantly lower in TIVA groups (15.5 mmHg) versus balanced anesthesia groups (18.3 mmHg).
  • Postoperative intraocular bleeding occurred in 8.6% of patients, increasing with nausea/vomiting or elevated intraocular pressure.

Conclusions:

  • TIVA, particularly with propofol, is advantageous for pars plana vitrectomy due to reduced postoperative nausea, vomiting, and lower intraocular pressure.
  • TIVA may help mitigate postoperative complications like intraocular bleeding.
