Does gender impact the speed of emergence and quality of recovery after anaesthesia?
Does gender impact the speed of emergence and quality of recovery after anaesthesia?
Women may emerge faster yet recover more slowly with more complications after anaesthesia; leaves open gender's role in recovery and warrants confirmation in trials.
Recent evidence shows that postoperative recovery may differ between men and women. 1 2 We planned a prospective cohort study to examine the impact of gender on postoperative outcome. This was associated with a trial investigating the effectiveness of several anaesthetic regimens.
