Abstract
Objective: To compare the postoperative pain score between spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia in patients undergoing elective abdominal hysterectomy at Ranong hospital.
Material and Method: This study retrospectively reviewed 100 medical records of patients who received abdominal hysterectomy between 1 January 2022 and 31 December 2024 at Ranong Hospital. Data collection included patient demographics, duration of surgery, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay and costs of hospital admission. Assessment of postoperative pain, using NRS (Numerical rating scale), was measured at Post-Anesthesia Care Unit and at 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 postoperative hours. Descriptive data analysis was employed using various statistical methods, including mean, standard deviation, frequency, and percentage. Independent T-test and Chi-square test were used to compare difference between 2 groups, p-value < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results: There were no difference between 2 groups in term of demographics, duration of surgery, intraoperative blood loss and length of hospital stay. Mean NRS pain score was significantly lower in spinal anesthesia group at Post-Anesthesia Care Unit and at 2, 6, 12 postoperative hours. Additionally, the cost of hospital admission was significant lower in spinal anesthesia group.
Conclusion: Spinal anesthesia provides lower postoperative pain as compared to the general anesthesia in patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy.
