The Thai Anesthesia Incidents Study (THAI Study) of Ambulatory Anesthesia: II Anesthetic Profiles and Adverse Events
Journal of The Medical Association of Thailand, 03/18/08

Punjasawadwong Y et al. - The incidence of major adverse events was low in ambulatory anesthesia for elective surgery when compared to the incidence in general surgical population. The majority of the events occurred in the respiratory system. The authors did not find any complications relating to regional anesthesia. Despite a low incidence of adverse events in ambulatory anesthesia, anesthesia personnel who are responsible for ambulatory anesthesia should have adequate knowledge and skills in selection and preparation of the patients. Therefore, a system of preanesthesia evaluation is very important.
