Key result
Fast-track anesthesia in patients undergoing TEVAR was associated with a shorter length of stay in the ICU (21.0 vs 24.0 hours; P=0.005) and postoperative hospital stay (5.0 vs 6.0 days; P=0.001).
Why the study?
Fast-track anesthesia with early extubation had not been assessed in patients undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
Does fast-track anesthesia reduce ICU and hospital length of stay in adult patients undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair?
Population
204 adult patients receiving general anesthesia for TEVAR at a single center
Comparison
Fast-track anesthesia vs non-fast-track anesthesia
Design
Single-center retrospective study

Absolute Event Rate: 21% vs 24%
p-value: p=0.005
Fast-track anesthesia with early extubation is feasible, safe, and associated with significantly shorter ICU and hospital lengths of stay in patients undergoing thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
Liu et al. (2023) conducted a cohort in Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) (n=204). Fast-track anesthesia vs. Standard anesthesia (non-fast-track) was evaluated on Length of stay in ICU (hours) (p=0.005). Fast-track anesthesia in patients undergoing TEVAR was associated with a shorter length of stay in the ICU (21.0 vs 24.0 hours; P=0.005) and postoperative hospital stay (5.0 vs 6.0 days; P=0.001).
